Costello’s comes to Warrington's Time Square

The diverse offer at Time Square continues to grow, with the official signing up of award-winning bar, Costello’s.

Warrington & Co have completed a deal with Costello’s for a 3,562 sq ft unit at Time Square, making the local, family-owned bar the latest addition to Warrington’s premier mixed-use destination.

The Costello family – who own Costello’s bars, along with micro-breweries, Lymm Brewery and Dunham Massey Brewing Company - will start the fit out imminently, bringing their brand of high-quality, award-winning craft ales, served in a modern, relaxed environment, to the town centre.

Anthony Costello, director at Costello’s, said: “We can’t wait to get started on the new bar and we’re looking forward to being able to bring our vision to life, in the new and exciting Time Square development. This is an excellent opportunity to showcase our award-winning ales and style of establishment, in a vibrant and high-quality area of Warrington town centre."

“We’re hoping to be open this Summer, when all restrictions are hopefully lifted. However, with Coronavirus in mind, we’ll be installing a specialist ventilation system, to make sure the bar is always full of fresh, clean air. We hope that as many people as possible will be able to come out and enjoy the new bar, along with the rest of what Time Square has to offer."

Warrington Borough Council leader, Cllr Russ Bowden, said: “Our Time Square development continues to go from strength to strength, and I’m delighted we are able to announce Costello’s as the latest high quality addition to our ever-growing offer.

“It has been fantastic to see this vital scheme maintaining such strong momentum during these challenging times. Now as the economic recovery of our town centre continues, we can look forward with real confidence to Time Square’s ongoing growth as a premier retail and leisure destination.”

The council’s cabinet member for economic development and innovation, Cllr Tom Jennings, said: “Securing high-quality, family-friendly venue, Costello’s is yet another completed milestone in delivering on our vision for Time Square – and is further validation of the confidence businesses continue to have in our town centre as a fantastic place to live, work and visit.”
