The Six by Nico restaurant on Hanover Street will reopen on 17 July 2020 with their Chippie menu.
After three months of closure this will be their way of enticing you back into the restaurant, and is a throwback to the opening in 2018. Items on the agenda have been creatively reimagined with contemporary twists.
Dishes on ‘The Chippie 2.0’ menu include; Chips & Cheese (Parmesan Espuma & Crisp / Curry Oil / Brandade Croquette / Vinegar Powder / Brown Sauce); Scrabster Monkfish (Cheek / Dill Emulsion / Gribiche / Peas / Beurre Blanc); Steak Pie(Speyside Beef Shin / Burnt Onion Ketchup / Mushroom Duxelle / ‘Meaty Salsa’); Fish Supper (Shetland Cod / Pickled Mussels / Confit Fennel / Samphire / Beer Emulsion; Smoked Sausage (Trio of Pork / Apple / Black Pudding / Salt Baked Celeriac / Choucroute) and finally back by very popular demand, Deep Fried Mars Bar for dessert (Chocolate Pave / Blood Orange Sorbet / Cocoa Nib). As always, there will also be a vegetarian option available for each course.
Chef Nico Simeone said: “The Chippie was originally designed to bring a sense of fun & nostalgia, and when talking to our team and Six by Nico community about which menu we wanted to re-open with, it was clear we wanted to bring those feelings back.
“When we launched our restaurants in Glasgow and Edinburgh, The Chippie was hugely popular so not only does this mean our existing customers get the opportunity to experience a new version, but it gives us the chance to share it with even more people the second time around.”
Restaurants will reopen with reduced seating so Six by Nico will also open on Mondays to give you the chance of booking your table. The six course Chippie 2.0 will be on the menu from 17 July to 6 September 2020 at £29 per person and wine pairing for an additional £26.
The Six by Nico team continue to work tirelessly behind the scenes to make the dining experience as safe as possible for their team, and customers. With this in mind, the restaurant brand has introduced a new ‘Wellbeing Policy’ across their restaurants in line with UK government guidelines.

In April, Chef Nico Simeone launched Home by Nico across Belfast, Manchester, Liverpool, Glasgow and Edinburgh to allow people to experience Six by Nico from the comfort of their own homes. The home delivery kits proved a huge success from the restaurant brand, who have served over 100,00 customers to date during lockdown. Home by Nico will be paused as the teams focus on re-opening all Six by Nico restaurants and plans for the food delivery business will be revealed later this year. Six by Nico London, located in Fitzrovia, will also open for the first time ever on Monday July 20th.
