The future of Kenilworth's branch of Zizzi is now in doubt, after an advert for its site at The Square appeared on a local estate agent's website.

The pizza restaurant chain - which is part of the Azzuri Group - did not respond to Nub News' request for comment.

But the advert on the Bromwich Hardy website says the unit will be available to rent from August 2024.

The estate agent is asking for £42,500 per annum to let the ground floor restaurant, which it says includes "modern facilities".

The brochure says: "A substantial town centre grade II Listed building converted to a modern restaurant with a dining area, kitchen, back of the house and W/C's.

"This ground-floor retail unit offers great exposure on Kenilworth High Street.

"The property benefits from allocated parking on site."

Zizzi is based in the grade II listed King's Arms & Castle Hotel building.

It adds: "The property occupies a prominent position on the principal retail thoroughfare at the junction of The Square and Station Road.

"The property is located in close proximity to Waitrose and the Talisman Square Shopping Centre which is currently undergoing redevelopment.

"The property also benefits from substantial public car parking nearby.

"Nearby occupiers include Waitrose, Lloyds Bank, Boots the Chemist, Superdrug, Iceland, B&M and Halifax."

This despite Superdrug and Halifax no longer operating locally.
