A new café/bar is set to open next month in Preston.
Argento Lounge, part of the Loungers plc group, will open on February 5 in the Animate Leisure Complex.
The opening will create 30 new jobs in the city.
Argento Lounge will be open every day for breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, and drinks.
It will have a full menu for children and options for those with gluten-free or vegan dietary requirements.
John English, head of community at Loungers, said: "We’re so looking forward to opening the doors of Argento Lounge.
"We hope our family-friendly environment and top-notch food and drink offering will prove popular with local residents and leisure visitors alike.
"We’re passionate about integrating genuinely into the communities we serve so we’re looking forward to meeting everyone and to playing our part at the heart of Preston’s food and drink scene.
"Anyone looking for a space to host events or groups should pop in once we’re open, we’d love to hear from them and see what we can do to help."
The café/bar will have books, games, and colouring supplies on offer as well as high chairs and baby-changing facilities.
Councillor Martyn Rawlinson, Preston City Council’s cabinet member for resources and performance, said: "After many years of hard work, it’s fantastic to welcome Argento Lounge to Preston and bring its family-friendly food offering to the City while helping to boost the local economy by creating jobs.
"We’re also impressed with the community focus the business has, and there’s also a nice touch to the name, which means silver and a nod to the Viking silver found here in 1840."
