Here are the first views of the newly refurbished premises that open as the BOX sports bar tomorrow (Saturday 3 June).
The new venue is spread over two floors and covers more than 10,000 sq ft, big enough to hold up to 575 guests.
Dozens of jobs have been created by BOX, which opens just in time to screen the FA Cup showdown between Manchester United and Manchester City at 3pm tomorrow.
Located in the old Pizza Express spot on Brindleyplace, the ground floor boasts an impressive open kitchen, and an island bar surrounded by 32 top-of-the-range TV screens for guests to watch live sport.
BOX also features two 18-foot maple wood European Shuffleboard tables for guests to play on.
There will be a live band every Friday and Saturday night playing favourite floor-fillers, along with a resident ‘Bandeoke’ hosted every Thursday night, where guests can perform on stage with a band. BOX also has a karaoke room, with another bar and private dining room upstairs, and an outdoor area for up to 30 guests.
Drinks will range from cocktails to IPA beer, and the food menu includes a range of burgers, kebabs and pizzas, including a pizza fondue – a triple cheese-stuffed pizza dough smothered in garlic butter, with melted cheese and pizza sauce.
