Harrison Client Testimonials

‘’Our brief to Harrison was, most definitely, far from simple. We asked for a successful, modern ‘all

day’ restaurant to be housed within a listed Georgian townhouse. Absolutely key was the need for

the design to complement and reflect the neighbouring centuries-old landmarks of Bath Abbey and

the Roman Baths. Harrison, I am happy to say, has handled the juxtaposition of historic and modern

with an ease borne out of vast experience.

The resulting Roman Baths Kitchen is an absolutely stunning example of how a contemporary envi-

ronment can pay homage to centuries-old architecture. Not only has it proved to be versatile enough

to stand out aesthetically and operationally, it continues to display tremendous social appeal and lon-

gevity. We are extremely pleased with the work that Harrison has done for us and praise not only

their professional respect for historic buildings, but also their ability to maximise their modern-day

potential.”

Doug Tetley, Chief Executive, Searcys


“In Harrison we have found designers who are not only able to have a longstanding relationship with a

brand, always able to keep it contemporary and exciting, but who have the technical skills and insight

to deal with the architectural restrictions of the historic buildings in the Browns portfolio. I am con-

stantly amazed at the knowledge that enables Harrison to take a rundown site opportunity and con-

vert it into a stunning and profitable venue which has both longevity and operational practicality.”

Vanessa Hall, Brand Operations Director, Browns

“In the crowded London hotel market, Harrison’s unwavering focus on individuality of design has

transformed The Windmill on Clapham Common into one of the most stylish and desirable overnight

venues in the capital. With forty-two uniquely shaped bedrooms to design and build, it was a very

challenging brief and not an easy task to deliver the project on time and within budget.

But Harrison did, with practicality, empathy and creativity.

The result is eclectically stunning - full of character and a whole world away from a bland hotel chain

scheme. The Windmill is no longer just a pub with rooms, it’s a complete overnight experience.”

Patrick Dardis, Director, Young & Co’s Brewery plc


‘’Harrison was the agency we turned to for T.G.I. Friday’s rebrand in the UK, and we were so im-

pressed with them that we invited them to repeat the exercise in the US, the ‘spiritual home’ of our

iconic brand. It’s refreshing to work with people who have a deep knowledge of their market and

know exactly what their clients’ customers want. The design inspiration has energized our re image

efforts in the US and we value our continued relationship with Harrison whose international strategic

vision and desire to go the extra mile add real value to the T.G.I. Friday's brand.”

Ricky Richardson, President & Chief Operating Officer, T.G.I.Friday's USA

“Harrison is a company with great vision, passion, energy and – most importantly – creativity. We first

started working with Harrison 15 years and over 220 restaurants ago. Right from the outset, we have

been impressed with the consultancy’s ability to constantly evolve our high profile brand, enabling us

to keep it fresh and well ahead of our competitors. Design Director Dean Concannon has to be sin-

gled out for his uncanny ability to second-guess our requirements and deliver over and above our

brief. Ultimately, Harrison has made a massive contribution to our success in the UK, working with us

like partners rather than suppliers.”

Steven Du Plessis, Head of Construction and Design, Nando’s
