A MAJOR restaurant chain will be opening a new branch in XSite Braehead.

Monterey Jack’s, which specialises in American classics, will be opening in the centre later this month – in a unit that will seat more than 150 diners.

The opening will create local jobs, with the restaurant looking to recruit 30 new staff to run the new eatery.

Rosalind Gibson, marketing manager at XSite Braehead, said: “We are delighted to welcome Monterey Jack’s to XSite Braehead.

Glasgow Times:

“It is going to be a strong addition to our already stellar leisure and retail offering here at XSite and I have no doubt that our customers will love its American-style food.”

Monterey Jack’s will be serving up gourmet burgers, hot dogs, pizzas, desserts, and cocktails.

The all-American brand recently secured ‘best burger’ at The Scottish Entertainment Awards, being unbeaten since 2019.
