Digbeth Dining Club, in partnership with Arena Central, is set to launch weekly food residency Lunch Club in the Birmingham business district from Wednesday 10 April.

The brand new initiative will see the nationally acclaimed food, drink and culture brand curate a bespoke casual dining offer on the Alpha Tower plaza, aimed at office and retail workers in the city centre, as well as visitors and city residents.

Designed to improve food choices for staff from a wide range of nearby developments and businesses, including HM Government Hub, the UK headquarters of HSBC and the University of Birmingham’s The Exchange, Digbeth Dining Club presents Lunch Club will also regularly showcase some of the region’s top creative culinary talent.

Disco Fries, Fat Snags, Hangry Moose, Only Jerkin’, Street Souvlaki, and Scran Man have all been confirmed for the Lunch Club residencies, running between 1100 and 1500 each Wednesday, underlining the partnership’s focus on encouraging growth for the city region’s independent hospitality industry - currently facing unprecedented trading conditions and additional social, economic and political pressures.
