Tom’s Kitchen, the group of restaurants and delis founded by chef Tom Aikens is set to launch Tom’s Kitchen Birmingham, as well as its first international deli in Dubai.

Tom’s Kitchen Birmingham will open in December, as a restaurant, bar and deli located at The Mailbox. As the first UK Tom’s Kitchen venture outside of London, Tom’s Kitchen Birmingham will offer all-day dining, seven days a week. There will also be a range of private and semi-private spaces, perfect for parties and events.

Speaking of the launch of Tom’s Kitchen Birmingham, founder Tom Aikens commented: “Birmingham is a vibrant and bustling city with a thriving food scene. There is already a wonderful array of restaurants in the city, and I believe that Tom’s Kitchen will offer an exciting new option for diners in The Mailbox development”.

Simon Samuels, Partner at Brockton Capital, said: “We’re hugely excited to welcome Tom’s Kitchen to the Mailbox later this year. The Mailbox is home to a number of ‘firsts’ and, being the first venture for Tom Aikens outside of London, this latest opening is no exception”.

Tom’s Kitchen is also set to launch its first deli outside of the UK, at Dubai Parks and Resorts, Riverland. In keeping with the Dubai Parks location, the deli will offer a fun, stylish design inspired by the Riverland resort, staying true to Tom’s Kitchen’s existing core values, offering express food options perfect for children and adults visiting the park.

Tom’s Kitchen Deli Dubai is set to launch on Saturday, October 1, 2016.
