Coppa Collective has posted a solid first-half trading update, with its flagship Coppa Club brand continuing to outperform a tough wider hospitality market.
Although revenue gains were small, the premium hospitality group is bucking the trend of a deteriorating backdrop.

Coppa Club delivered like-for-like sales growth of 3.2% in the 26 weeks to 29 March 2026, comfortably ahead of the NIQ RSM restaurant tracker, which averaged -0.2% over the same period. Performance was broad-based, with several sites posting strong double-digit LFL growth.
The company believes this is evidence that the all-day format is landing well in the current consumer environment.
Group LFL was up 1.8% (excluding Tavolino, which has reduced capacity during landlord works), with revenue edging up to £25.0m from £24.7m.
Noci, the smaller and earlier-stage Italian concept, was modestly behind on LFL as casual dining conditions remained soft. A broader food offer has been rolled out across the estate post-period, with early signs encouraging. The second half will be the real test.
Coppa Collective is selectively picking out new locations and businesses while improving exisiting sites as part of its growth strategy.
The acquisition of The Linwood Collection has completed, establishing a third operating brand, and integration is on track. Post-period, the conversion of 31 Below to Coppa Club Marylebone was finalised. Discussions on The Queen’s Head in Surrey continue.
