The owner of Oliver's café bar on Otley Road in Guiseley has announced an exciting partnership with locally owned tapas restaurant chain La Casita.

Oliver Kenny, founder and owner of Oliver’s has joined La Casita as a co-owner and with it comes the news that a selection of the restaurant’s Spanish Tapas dishes will soon be available at Oliver’s.

“I’ve always wanted to offer tapas style food alongside the large selection of drinks, including cocktails, available at Oliver’s”, said Kenny. “This opportunity with La Casita was presented to me and it all fell into place.

"We’ve done some work at Oliver’s to expand the kitchen and from Friday 9th June we’ll be offering a condensed version of the La Casita menu.

“Hopefully if people like what we’re doing at Oliver’s they’ll head further afield to try one of the other La Casita restaurants and explore the full tapas menu.”

La Casita came onto the scene in 2014, when chefs Simon Miller and Oliver Renton, opened their first restaurant in Ilkley. They went on to open restaurants in Boston Spa and Skipton thanks to the popular tapas style dining.

Using a mix of locally sourced food and traditional imported ingredients, La Casita create colourful plates that are complimented by a relaxed dining style and charming interior. This dining recipe has taken La Casita from strength to strength.

Kenny’s experience and background in the hospitality industry means he will be an asset to La Casita and he’s looking forward to welcoming new and old customers through the doors at Oliver’s to try the new tapas offering.

Kenny takes over from co-founder Oliver Renton.

“There’s a gap in the market for this style of dining in Guiseley," added Kenny. “I’m hoping we’ll be a meeting spot for a drink and tasty bite to eat after getting off the train or we’ll be the choice of groups who want a night out with great food in their local town.”

La Casita at Oliver’s will offer around 60% of the menu from La Casita and it will host Bottomless Brunch events every Friday and Saturday and have an early bird dining offer available.
