TGI Fridays, the American-style restaurant chain, plans to open an outlet in the Silverburn shopping centre on the south side of Glasgow where it expects to create 90 jobs.

The business said it expects the restaurant will open on Wednesday, October 22. It will seat up to 234 guests. Mark McGettigan, general manager for TGI Fridays Silverburn, said: "There is a huge appetite for Fridays in Glasgow and we're extremely excited to be opening our fourth restaurant here." Owned by US private equity investors, TGI Fridays has 64 restaurants in the UK, including seven in Scotland.
