The property, on the corner of George Street and Terrace Road, is not listed, but is located within the Buxton Central Conservation Area and is adjacent to, and faces, Grade II-listed buildings; Buxton Thermal Baths, The Colonnade and Quadrant.
Caroline said: “We have still got the manager’s office and all the lovely mahogany panels which gave the building its character, but we have also introduced a mezzanine floor with Chesterfield sofas, and downstairs there will be booth seating.
“For us to convert it from a bank to a bar has cost nearly £150,000, which shows our commitment to the town for now and for the future.”
RedWillow Buxton opens at 3pm on Saturday, December 16.
Opening hours are Monday-Thursday, noon-11pm; Friday and Saturday, noon-12.30am; Sunday, noon-10.30pm.
