Strada

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

For the town, see Strada, Switzerland.

Strada is a chain of Italian restaurants in the UK. It was created by Luke Johnson[1]. It has 64 (as of April 2008) restaurants, mostly in the South of England with a few in the North of England and in Wales. Currently the group is yet to open any restaurants outside of England or Wales. It is positioned as upmarket of Pizza Express.

In May 2007, the group, with several associated brasseries (2 Belgos and 3 Bierodromes - April 2008), was acquired by Tragus Ltd[2], owner of the Cafe Rouge, Bella Italia, Potters Bar & Kitchen and Huxleys chains.
