"The street might sound rather Mediterranean, but its true location is less White Lotus, and more Slow Horses, because it's right next to Holborn station. The Grade II-listed pedestrianised street, which runs diagonally between Southampton Row and Bloomsbury Way, has been getting a lot of work done. And we mean a lot - the marble thoroughfare has been closed for the past five years as developers Tristan Capital Partners have performed a 'complete restoration' of the area."
"Trendy coffee joint Flying Horse Coffee has opened its doors at 1 Sicilian Avenue (opposite the red telephone box) this December. This is Flying Horse's fourth London outpost and first location in the city centre. The roastery will be joined by Backworks in the spring. The drop-in massage studio will offer fully-clothed seated back, head, neck and shoulder massages, with sessions starting from 15 to 45 minutes."
Sicilian Avenue, a Grade II-listed pedestrianised marble street in Holborn, underwent a complete restoration and was closed for five years. The street runs diagonally between Southampton Row and Bloomsbury Way and dates from 1906, featuring turrets and ornate building details. Pedestrian access returned last year, and buildings are now being occupied. Flying Horse Coffee opened at 1 Sicilian Avenue in December as its fourth London location and first city-centre site. Backworks will arrive in spring offering short, fully-clothed seated massages. Matchado will open a café serving Japanese tea experiences, matcha and hojicha sourced from Japan.
