Shoeless Joe's, the restaurant and bar concept, has opened its fifth London site in Dover Street.

The 7,000sq ft venue offers a bar and a 70-cover restaurant as well as live televised sport on video screens. It has the ability to stage corporate and media events for up to 150 people too.

The lower ground floor, called The Jackson Room, will house the bar and giant video screens with full audio visual capabilities for presentations and ISDN lines for Internet access. The Jackson Room will serve as a private function room for corporate and media events, as well as an additional viewing space for live televised sports events and an extra late night bar for theatre and party goers.

The ground floor features a bar that runs three quarters of the length of the room, giant screens for sport and news and restaurant areas at the back and front of the floor.

The company is looking at sites outside of London such as Leeds and Newcastle and a venue is set to open in Manchester next year.
