Fuller, Smith & Turner, the premium pubs and hotels business, is delighted to announce that it has secured a lease for a new site at Heathrow Terminal 2 – The Queen’s Terminal. The new site is landside, will be called The Queen’s Arms, and will open in early August.
The pub will deliver a great Fuller’s experience – outstanding customer service, delicious fresh food and an exciting drinks range – and will be a perfect complement to London’s Pride, Fuller’s airside pub in the same terminal. The Queen’s Arms will be open from 04.30 to 22.30 and illustrates Fuller’s commitment to the travel hub market.
Fuller’s Chief Executive Simon Emeny said: “London’s Pride has been an amazing success – so we were excited by the opportunity to open a sister site, landside, in the same terminal. We have a great relationship with Heathrow and there are obvious benefits to having two pubs in the same terminal around deliveries and staffing. We’re really pleased to be getting The Queen’s Arms open in time to benefit from the busy summer season and it further strengthens our travel hub portfolio.”
Heathrow Retail and Property Director, Fraser Brown said: “We are always working hard to give travellers experiences that showcase the great food and beverage industry the UK has to offer, so we are delighted to work with Fuller’s, a long-standing and local family business. The Queen’s Arms will be an outstanding feature for Terminal 2 and a wonderful way for departing passengers to start their journey, particularly for the summer season.”
