Big Easy next restaurant lined up for Paradise
Big Easy, the American-inspired seafood, BBQ and steakhouse restaurant, is bringing its Louisiana-style approach to dining to Three Chamberlain Square at Paradise Birmingham.
Big Easy will bring its stylish yet laid-back offer to Birmingham’s business district, complete with live music, BBQ style cooking and plenty of its famous fresh lobster.
With an extensive drinks menu as well as great food, the London-based restaurant already has five venues across the capital and has chosen Three Chamberlain Square and the heart of Birmingham for its next operation outside of the capital.
The new 5,638 sq ft restaurant will take its place as the next leisure operator at Three Chamberlain Square, following on from the opening of Sticks ‘n’ Sushi in October which already operates on the Paradise Street side of the building.
Three Chamberlain Square is the highly sustainable commercial building opposite Birmingham’s famous Grade I listed Town Hall. Big Easy will front the corner of Ratcliff Passage and the building’s northern frontage, opposite the Town Hall and close to Chamberlain Square and the future Ratcliff Square.
The menu at Paradise will feature all of Big Easy’s famous BBQ seafood, burgers, steaks, chicken, pork, snacks and sides. Live music is another key part of the Big Easy experience, and customers will be encouraged to enjoy their food and drinks while soaking up the sounds of top class Deep South Blues bands. The venue’s atmosphere is designed to provide the perfect accompaniment to a night of great tunes, relaxed drinks and delicious food.
At Paradise, Big Easy will be joining an existing roster of seven other high-quality restaurants and cafés across the estate, including Albert’s Schloss, Cow & Sow, Dishoom, F1®Arcade, La Bellezza, Rosa’s Thai and Sticks ‘n’ Sushi.
The new venue will add another leading independent operator to the estate with its more than 11 million visitors per annum and established commercial buildings, now fully let to a wide range of major Blue Chip occupiers including PwC, Goldman Sachs, Arup, DLA Piper, EY, Eversheds Sutherland and more than forty other companies.
Spokesperson for Big Easy, said:
Opening our next restaurant outside of London in Birmingham underlines our commitment to building our brand in a city that is already renowned for its top-quality food and hospitality offer, including in and around the Paradise estate.
“Pairing our food and drink with regular top quality live music creates another dimension to our offer and has already helped us establish our brand in some of the highest profile locations in London.
“Three Chamberlain Square in particular offers a superb, highly sustainable building in a perfect location alongside the wonderful Grade I listed Town Hall with its dedicated West Midlands Metro tram stop and pedestrian routes giving instant access to different parts of the city. We understood the potential of the site as soon as we saw it and can’t wait to be bringing our mix of the best food, drink and music to Birmingham and to Paradise next year.”
The new restaurant will build the excitement at the estate and specifically around Three Chamberlain Square, a building with a unique, low carbon design, and accreditations that underline its holistic commitment to sustainability, workplace wellbeing and futureproofing. As the most sustainable commercial building in the city and with its commercial space now fully let, Three Chamberlain Square underlines the commitment of Paradise to a net zero future.
Ross Fittall, Regional Development Director at Paradise developer and asset-manager, Federated Hermes MEPC, said:
I’m sure Big Easy is going to be another successful, high quality restaurant concept at Paradise that’s new to Birmingham and the Midlands yet fits right into the city’s thriving food scene. As the second leisure venue to come to Three Chamberlain Square, it will be accessible to people from across the city and marks yet another milestone for the estate.
“Big Easy’s commitment speaks volumes about the quality, location and success of Paradise, its buildings and public realm and its ability to bring new operators, investors and jobs to the very heart of the city. Companies and organisations continue to look to the estate as Birmingham’s premier destination for leisure as well as office space.”
