    Birdies and CBRE Investment Management have announced the official opening of the immersive crazy golf experience, cocktail bar and street food eatery at Angel Central Islington.

    The second location for the brand spans 5,558sq ft opposite Wagamama and H&M, making it the largest to date. The focus is a nine-hole course, designed by interior architects Shed, featuring Birdies’ obstacles, illusions and bold colours.

    Birdies’ award-winning offer also includes a curated menu of food and drink, the latter coming from a coral pink bar in the centre of the venue. The selection of specially crafted cocktails, beer, wine and soft drinks sit alongside street food brand Cheeky Burger, which caters for vegans, vegetarians, and meat-eaters.

    Nick Frow, co-founder of Birdies Angel, said: “Opening Birdies Angel is a huge milestone for us. It’s our first venue in North London and marks the beginning of our expansion plans for Birdies. Alongside Angel, we have plans for a further five London sites over the next three years and plan to take Birdies nationally, with 20 additional regional sites beyond our London plans.”

    Ciara Daffy, asset manager at CBRE Investment Management, added: “The launch of Birdies Angel is a fantastic new leisure addition to our revitalised scheme. Their comprehensive day-to-night, experiential concept adds yet another element of dynamism to our offer and reinforces our focus on supporting truly unique operators. Birdies will provide visitors and the local community with an opportunity to have an interactive experience with friends, colleagues, or family.”

    The launch of Birdies at Angel Central follows the openings of fried chicken brand Pelicana and speciality corn dog concept Myungrang Hotdog, with the connected eateries serving traditional Korean dishes for dine-in and takeaway.

    CBRE represent Angel Central for both retail and leisure enquiries.
