Many of the property's period features are included in the design, such as the central fireplace and original cornice, along with some of the traditional décor. The building has a new extension, which according to the architects will feature a more modern design.
Le Bistrot Pierre specialises in great value authentic French cuisine, with chefs using provincial ingredients to prepare each dish. The new restaurant will boast an open-plan dining area and a theatre kitchen, which will be situated in the building's rear annex.

He said that each restaurant boasts a unique design that complements the building in which it is situated. "Whilst our look changes between each bistrot, customers can expect the same personal, attentive service and high quality French cookery to enjoy every day," he said.
