Inside The Olive after refurbishment

A popular eatery in the centre of Leicester has re-opened today with a new look. The Olive, in Belvoir Street, has been closed for just over two weeks whilst a refurbishment was carried out.

As well as boasting a new look, The Olive - which originally launched in 2017 - is also under new ownership. Victor Braha, who ran tavernas on the Greek islands of Rhodes and Mykonos before re-locating to Leicester eight years ago, has taken over the place.

Before the doors to The Olive were re-opened this morning, LeicestershireLive was invited in for a sneak peek - and as you can see from our photo gallery, it is looking very stylish. The previously minimal look has been replaced by a cosier, more colourful environment.
