Tottenham Hotspur FC and its official catering partner, Levy Restaurants UK, has announced a partnership with Michelin-star chef Chris Galvin, adding to the new stadium’s premium F&B offering.
Galvin will bring his fine dining experience to the new venue’s On Four lounges and suites, following the announcement of the English Premier League soccer club’s partnership with the Roux family.
Scheduled to open next year, On Four, located on level four of the 61,559-capacity stadium, will offer a lineup of world-renowned chefs in a single location. In total, six signature chefs (boasting a combined 18 restaurants in locations from London to Dubai), will provide a refined and varied menu for guests on different matchdays throughout the season.
Galvin joins Albert, Michel Roux Jr and Emily Roux in the club’s culinary lineup, with the remaining signature chefs set be announced soon.
On Four will also offer ‘Super Suites’ which can be fully customized by an interior designer to reflect an individual’s or brand’s values, as well as loge suites that offer private dining experiences with the atmosphere of a restaurant and bar.
“We are delighted to bring Chris Galvin on board as we further add to our outstanding lineup of chefs that will form part of the premium offering at our new stadium,” said Andy O’Sullivan, director of hospitality for Tottenham Hotspur. “By welcoming first the Roux family and now Chris, we are developing an unrivalled premium experience for guests On Four.
“The new stadium will be London’s best sports and entertainment venue in every aspect, from general admission to premium – it will be a stadium for everyone and deliver the best possible fan experience.”
“I’m extremely excited to be working with Tottenham Hotspur and bringing my food and service to guests On Four,” added Galvin.
“This is my first partnership with a sporting venue and I can’t wait for the challenge. I am a lifelong fan and my family grew up close to Tottenham and know the area well so from a personal point of view it’s great to be part of a project that is transforming the local area as well as redefining the visitor experience in football.”
