                               AGM Statement

At today's Annual General Meeting Alan Jackson, Chairman of City Centre
Restaurants Plc, made the following comments on current trading:


'The Group has made a good start to the current year with like-for-like sales
increases to the end of the first quarter of 3% in Leisure Parks, 13% in
Concessions and 2% in High Street Restaurants. Overall, the Principal Trading
brands enjoyed a like-for-like sales increase of 4% for the first quarter and
this trend has continued in recent weeks'.


'Leisure Parks performed well throughout the period. We have opened six new
Frankie & Benny's restaurants to date, with a further six to eight expected to
open in the remainder of the year'.


'Our Concessions business enjoyed a good first quarter and our High Street
business, where we believe we are gaining market share, is proving robust'.


'In a climate where the customer has become much more discerning and has
significantly greater choice, the need to provide an excellent experience at
good value is paramount- this is exactly where we excel'.


'I look forward to reporting further good progress for the first half of 2003,
in September'.
