Flat Iron, Leeds
Client: Flat Iron
Architect: Macauley Sinclair
Duration: 7 weeks
Value: £300k
Opening just in time for the busy festive period Medlock recently collaborated with fast growing restaurant brand Flat Iron to help deliver their newest site in Leeds.
Occupying the former Byron Burger site on Lands Lane the new venue caters for 110 covers and marks Flat Iron’s first venture in the North and fourteenth restaurant in total, with a further twelve sites in London and one in Cambridge.
The new Northern outpost is just 40 miles from Flat Iron’s own Wagyu Steak Herd situated in Thirsk who are reared under the watchful eye of third generation beef farmer Charles Asbridge to provide the very best quality cuts the brand has become synonymous with.
Over the course of a seven-week programme we transformed the former church building to deliver a chic new interior whilst carefully preserving many original features of the building. The dramatic gothic windows which spans two floors offer an abundance of natural light into the venue and there’s a host of exposed brickwork along with lots of bespoke joinery items from our workshop.
