Retirement Villages Group's Paramount Place in Tunbridge Wells and The Willowbury in West Malling will each welcome a Yarrow restaurant, open to residents and the local community alike.
Two new dining destinations are coming to Kent this autumn, as Retirement Villages Group (RVG) prepares to open Yarrow, a modern British restaurant, at The Willowbury in West Malling and Paramount Place in Tunbridge Wells, as part of its Thrive Living Collection.
Yarrow Arrives in Kent
Launching alongside both villages this autumn, the restaurants will bring a warm and sociable dining experience to each site, with a bar, restaurant and terrace offering seating for close to 70 people. Both are designed as a natural extension of their local high streets - places for residents, neighbours and visitors to meet, eat and spend time together.
Rooted in the spirit of modern British dining, Yarrow will offer a seasonal, carefully curated menu that celebrates quality ingredients and thoughtful flavours. Building on the success of Yarrow at RVG's flagship Thrive Living community, Botanical Place in West Byfleet, the restaurants at Paramount Place and The Willowbury will bring the same approach to Kent - from café service to brunch, Sunday lunch and tasting menus.
Spaces Designed to Bring People Together
As with all Thrive Living communities, The Willowbury and Paramount Place have been purposefully designed to foster connection with the areas around them, from shared dining and social spaces to integrated wellbeing facilities including ALUNA, a new wellbeing suite available across Thrive Living communities and also accessible to the public. More information on ALUNA will be revealed soon.
Chris Burdett, Head of F&B Operations at Retirement Villages Group, comments:
“We're incredibly excited to be launching Yarrow at both The Willowbury and Paramount Place, marking not just the opening of two restaurants but the start of a new social destination for each area. As with all our hospitality offerings, the focus is on exceptional quality with locally sourced, seasonal ingredients, in a setting that feels relaxed and easy to walk into.
“We can't wait to see residents and the local community enjoying these spaces together. Thrive Living is about our villages being genuinely part of the neighbourhoods they sit in, and we're proud that both restaurants will be open to everyone from day one.”
Further details will be shared ahead of the openings this autumn.
