Based in a Grade II listed building, Bundobust Birmingham is split across two floors. A new 15-year lease of the Birmingham premises in Bennetts Hill was completed by law firm Clarion’s property practice, with a team led by partner Simon Mydlowski and including Lucy Entwistle. Amy Buttrick of Clarion’s corporate team advised on an asset purchase of certain assets at the property from the outgoing tenant and business Immigration specialist Anna-Elise Harvey from Clarion’s employment team also provided support to Bundobust.

“We're really excited to be opening in Birmingham, a city with a rich history of South Asian culture,” said co-founder Marko Husak.

“With everything from fantastic old school boozers to modern craft beer bars and world-class breweries, we feel like the city is a perfect fit for us. We think with Bundobust’s approach to Indian street food and fresh beer we can add something unique to complement Birmingham’s food and drink scene.”

Simon Mydlowski of Clarion added: “The opening of the Birmingham restaurant marks another important step in Bundobust’s growth journey.”
