Sticks n Sushi announces Paradise opening date
A Danish-Japanese fusion venue will open its doors in Birmingham for the first time later this month, with a 250-seat restaurant heading for the ground floor of Three Chamberlain Square.
Sticks‘n’Sushi will become the first leisure venue at the landmark Paradise building, joining Dishoom, Albert’s Schloss, Rosa’s Thai, F1 Arcade, La Bellezza, and Cow & Sow on the wider Paradise development.
The firm agreed a lease for the 6,400 sq ft unit in August.
Ross Fittall, Regional Development Director at Paradise developer and asset-manager, MEPC, the specialist development arm of Federated Hermes, said: “Sticks‘n’Sushi is going to be yet another exciting new offer and the perfect addition to Birmingham’s existing and sophisticated leisure offer.
“As the first venue to come to Three Chamberlain Square, it will be accessible to people from across the city and marks yet another major milestone for the estate with another new offer for Birmingham and its people.
“Paradise is all about shared space, and the union of commercial workspace with public realm intersects with our leisure operators, all of which have brought a new concept to Birmingham.”
Founded in 1994 by half-Japanese, half-Danish, brothers Jens and Kim Rahbek, and Thor Anderson in Copenhagen, SticksʹnʹSushi has F&B sites across Denmark, Germany and the UK.
Paradise says its Birmingham restaurant will be designed by Danish practice OEO Studio – known for its work on Noma Kyoto, and more recently, Sticks’n’Sushi Tivoli Gardens, Copenhagen – with the space set to draw on Japanese architectural principles while incorporating Scandinavian design.
“After months of planning, we’re very excited to finally be opening the doors in Birmingham,” said Andreas Karlsson, Sticks’n’Sushi Group’s chief executive.
“This is a big restaurant for us, with a great bar, terrace and plenty of space for groups, and we’ve designed it to work just as well for a quick lunch or a few drinks as it does for a full evening out. We can’t wait to welcome Birmingham in and see the restaurant in action.”
