The art of curated hospitality venues
Quay Hospitality Group
Quay Hospitality Group consists of a family of distinctive, independent venues across the south coast united by a shared belief in brilliant hospitality, quality food and drink, and the kind of genuine warmth that makes guests feel truly at home.
Each venue in the group has its own character and community, but all share the same founding principle: bring a place back to its heyday and keep it there. Great atmospheres, great people, great experiences.
A Journey Along the Coast
From our first pub to multiple venues spanning Dorset and the Isle of Wight
Thomas Tripp, Christchurch
We relaunch this pub following a very successful run by the previous owners but transform it to become the premier live music venue in the area and establish it as a thriving community hub in Christchurch.
Bodega Christchurch is launched
Just down the road from Thomas Tripp, we open our first completely unique Tapas and late bar destination venue, rooting the group in the town's harbourside life.
Bodega Southbourne is launched
In the heart of the thriving Southbourne area, we open our second Bodega tapas bar, establishing the brand and setting the direction with more to come...
The Smugglers
This venue was in dire need of revitalisation. We took it over and completely transformed it with a new outside bar area, fantastic games room and lounge and brought it back with some old school charm.
Eighteen Bar & Restaurant
Situated within The King's Arms Hotel in Christchurch, we launched our boldest venture yet with a completely refurbished interior and locally sourced produce for a brand new dining experience including late night jazz and cocktails.
Salty's Yarmouth
Salty's Yarmouth opens on the Isle of Wight. Our sixth venue and the group's first island address serving the freshest fish possible. A new coastline, same heartbeat.
Three quiet obsessions.
Heartfelt Service
Teams chosen for warmth and instinct first. Skills can be taught; a genuine love of people cannot.
Local at the Core
Our producers are neighbours. Our teams live where they work. Our regulars are our compass.
Professional Excellence
Independent soul, professional standards. The details are where our obsession lives.
A Tapestry of Talent
Built on the founders' dedication, passion, and unwavering professionalism, Quay Hospitality Group brings together a remarkable collective of talent. Across six venues and three counties and more than 100 hundred individuals, carry forward this vision with pride. Each person contributes their own story, united by a shared commitment to excellence and genuine hospitality.
