10 new shops and restaurants that could be set to open in Dundee.
In the next months, Dundee might see the opening of a number of new stores and restaurants.
A number of large retailers are considering opening new locations throughout the city.
The Courier looks at some of the most renowned firms that could be opening in and around Dundee soon.
Ikea, Kingsway West Retail Park
The Courier reported in March that the Swedish furniture store has submitted plans for a new outlet at Kingsway West Retail Park.
The store will be a planning and ordering centre that is smaller than a typical Ikea store.
Customers can get guidance from staff before placing an order for collection or delivery. An opening date has yet to be established.
Popeyes, Kingsway West Retail Park
Popeyes, an American chicken franchise, may be moving into the previous Pizza Hut location in the same retail park.
An application for work on the vacant eatery has been submitted to the council. There have been no further details disclosed.
Hotel Chocolat, Overgate Shopping Centre
Hotel Chocolat is also moving to the Overgate.
The gourmet chocolate merchant will take over the former Regatta store after it closes. The opening date has not yet been declared.
1st Stop 2 Shop, Strathmartine Road
A convenience shop will appear in the former RBS building on Strathmartine Road next year. Umar Sher, the proprietor of 1st Stop 2 Shop, estimates that the building will cost six figures to adapt.
If the council approves the plans for the new shop, it will be the brand’s second location in the city.
Mountain Warehouse, Gallagher Retail Park
Mountain Warehouse could be leaving its current location on Murraygate for a much larger store at Gallagher Retail Park.
The outdoor shop had already registered plans to transform the unit currently occupied by Next.
There have been no further details confirmed about the larger outlet’s possible launch date.
Wendy’s, Reform Street
Wendy’s, an American fast food company, is considering moving into the former Friday’s and Go location on Reform Street.
Wendy’s, the third-largest hamburger brand in the United States, filed a first planning and building warrant application for the site earlier this year.
The eatery, which will provide both takeout and dine-in choices, is estimated to seat up to 52 people.
Superdrug, Gallagher Retail Park
Superdrug is considering a new location at Gallagher Retail Park. The high-street business has submitted ideas for signage at the former Next location.
However, no further details have been disclosed. This comes after the business extended its Overgate Shopping Centre location.
Hot World Cuisine, City Quay
The ancient Arnold Clark showroom on Dock Street could be converted into a world buffet. Hot World Cuisine, which already has a restaurant in Glasgow, wants to move in.
If the proposals are approved, the Dundee restaurant will be able to accommodate roughly 400 customers while also creating approximately 50 employment. The Courier offers a deeper look at what to anticipate from Hot World Cuisine.
McDonald’s, Riverside Avenue
The fast-food chain has submitted plans to the council for a new drive-thru restaurant near Dundee Airport.
McDonald’s said the new location will produce up to 100 new employment. Before settling on Riverside Avenue, the restaurant company considered several other locations.
Before development can commence, the outlet must first obtain planning authorisation.
Reading Rooms, Blackscroft
New plans to convert the former Reading Rooms nightclub, also known as St Roque’s Library, into a boutique restaurant have emerged.
The designs are part of a larger vision for the Blackscroft neighbourhood, which includes additional dwellings. However, the ideas have yet to be examined, so the inauguration of a new restaurant is a long way off.
