A new fish restaurant is coming to Maldon’s high street.

Dante’s Brasserie is due to open in the King’s Head Centre in the town centre on September 4.

The restaurant will be run by husband and wife duo Mario Margi and Charlotte Walker, who moved to Maldon in December last year.

The restaurant in the Grade II listed building will offer a variety of fish dishes, which are set to change every few weeks, along with vegan options.

The majority of food served will be sourced from companies close to Maldon and the surrounding area.

It is expected that the restaurant will be hiring eight members of staff, with four working back of house and four front of house.

The inside of the restaurant is still being built and converted, with the idea of making it an open plan with capacity for around 40 covers.

More details are expected over the coming weeks. People can follow @dantesbrasserie on Instagram for further updates.
