Inverness’s new Maeme’s piri-piri chicken takeaway and restaurant to open in the Highland capital’s Eastgate Shopping Centre in a matter of days
Piri-piri chicken fans have just one week to wait for Inverness’s newest takeaway and restaurant to open its doors.
Maeme’s, which has been getting fitted out over the past few months, will open its doors in the Eastgate Shopping Centre on April 17.
The date was revealed after fencing, which has cordoned off the eatery’s frontage during fitting out work, came down recently.
Although work continues inside, new signs have been put in the windows to confirm the April 17 opening date and special opening offers.
When it opens its doors next Thursday it will be the latest in a string of outlets for the chain across the UK. It already runs an eatery in Aberdeen and has plans for one in Glasgow - but this will be its first foray into the Highlands.
When planning permission was granted last year, the outlet confirmed that around seven to nine new jobs will be created when it opens its doors.
Its new Inverness home sits next to the Eastgate entrance to the Eastgate Shopping Centre, and will be accessible both from the street and from within the mall.
Seating will also be provided inside the outlet as well as a small area within the public space inside the shopping centre.
