MP backs The Gourmet Grill as they open a new permanent base in Waringstown

Carla Lockhart MP • November 29, 2022

Carla Lockhart MP has extended her best wishes to local businessman Gareth Stokes, following the opening of his new business premises in Waringstown.

Speaking on a visit to the takeaway, Carla Lockhart said:

 

“Gareth has many years of experience in the food industry and has built up a phenomenal name and brand, The Gourmet Grill. It is well known here in Waringstown and beyond for the quality food he serves up for the customer and the very reasonable prices for a tasty meal.

 

It is a big step to take over this unit, particularly in the current climate. However, I have every confidence that Gareth will make it a success and will build up a very happy and loyal customer base here in the village.

 

I wish Gareth, Naomi, his family and his team at The Gourmet Grill well for the future.”
