Well known licensee and cocktail mixologist Carlo Graziani to open new venue called Shawbridge in Clitheroe that will bring a taste of Italy to the town

Carlo Graziani, who already owns and operates The Parlour, a popular cocktail bar in Clitheroe, has now opened ‘Shawbridge’ on Shawbridge Street in the town centre.

An intimate wine bar and café, Carlo has recruited four waiters and bar staff. Before establishing the venue, Carlo operated a temporary ‘pop up’ bar at the same site during the festive season. Carlo is well known for his skills as a cocktail mixologist and is often called upon by hospitality venues and brands across the North West.

Carlo said: “My vision for Shawbridge is to create a cosmopolitan place with an Italian feel to attract a discerning clientele. Clitheroe is a town with a very diverse mixture of people and I see Shawbridge as the ‘go to’ for people to meet and enjoy a drink all in a continental and friendly atmosphere.”
