New cocktail bar and European café bar set to open in Barnsley’s Glass Works this summer

The Salt House is operated by the True Independent Group, who also run Cucina Sky Lounge in Market Kitchen.

Located on the northern border of The Glass Works Square just off Eldon Street, The Salt House will sit alongside Superbowl UK, Nando’s and the soon-to-open Fridays restaurant, with an outdoor seating area filtering out into the square.

The day to night venue will feature a large centerpiece island bar, an open theatre kitchen, private dining booths and a VIP DJ area, all split across two floors.

Mat Crisp, managing director of True Independent Group,said: “The Salt House will be Barnsley’s newest immersive bar and restaurant experience, combining creative cocktails with delicious dishes from some of the region’s most talented chefs.

“Our cocktail mixologists cover all the classics, while our House Signatures focus on tequila, which are served alongside infused salts that are designed to complement our food menu as well.

“There’s going to be no expense spared on the venue and we can’t wait to open our doors to the public this summer.”

The True Independent Group also has plans to open a second venue in The Glass Works this summer – Black + White, named after its monochrome interior, will be located alongside Coffee Boy with its entrance on May Day Green.

The European style café bar will boast an impressive selection of wines and craft beers, which can be paired with the venue’s homemade charcuterie and cheeses.
