Last updated 18th Dec 2024
Passengers flying from Birmingham Airport can eat at a new Peaky Blinders-inspired restaurant from today (18th Dec).
The TV show itself surrounds a gang based in Birmingham. It is a brand sold in more than 183 countries thanks to Netflix.
The bar and kitchen is called 'Shelby & Co. Bar and Restaurant' and is the first of it's kind in a travel location.
Based in the departure lounge, it has space for 290 diners.
The menu includes burgers, fish and chips, pizza as well as breakfast and bespoke cocktails.
There is also the opportunity to buy merchandise whilst you dine. Including the infamous flat cap and even a mousepad.
**_"It is such an established brand within Birmingham"_**
Richard Gill, Commercial Director of Birmingham Airport said: "The menu has been created around the Peaky Blinders concept.
"You might see 'The Birmingham Balti' or the 'Tommy Burger' within the menu," he said.
They also serve spirits and beer local to Birmingham at the bar.
"Peaky Blinders is such an established brand within Birmingham.
"It would have been horrific for this restaurant to have been opened at any airport other than Birmingham," said Gill.
