Pizza Express & Iceland sign up at Marine Point New Brighton.Neptune Wirral Ltd, advised by international real estate advisor Savills and Mowbray Gill, has let space at Marine Point Retail & Leisure Park in New Brighton to Pizza Express and Iceland Foods respectively, taking the scheme to 96% let. Pizza Express Restaurants has agreed a new 25-year lease on Unit 8 totalling 3,000 sq ft (278 sq m) and will pay an annual rent of £50,000. Retailer Iceland Foods has taken a new 15-year lease at Unit 16/17, which extends to 6,144 sq ft (570 sq m) at a rent of £92,000 per annum. Iceland is fitting out and will be open for trade on 4th March 2014 and Pizza Express will be open for Easter. These new lettings come on the back of numerous tenants at the scheme reporting exceptional trading figures. Daniel Hynd, Project Director at Neptune, comments: “Since opening in late 2011, Marine Point has really established itself as a leading retail and leisure destination in the Wirral. Testament to this is the strong tenant line up it has attracted including Morrisons, Grosvenor Casino, Green King, Prezzo, Starbucks, La Tasca, Chimichanga and Loungers. Many of our operators have reported outstanding trading since opening, which further reinforces the strength of New Brighton.” Read More Click Me

Note: Parking will be insufficient. Absolutely. Combine a weekend with a warm and sunny day and you can't get a space in Morrisons Car Park. I did the weekly shop and had to park right up the hill in New Brighton.

Q pay and display. I has to be coming as its a easy money maker for the council.
What gets me thinking is how now New Brighton must be killing any existing nightlife in central Birkenhead.
Its all good for New Brighton (it looks that way).
What made me laugh in the article was that there will be pizza for the next 25yrs at marine point.
New Brighton day or night is a great place to visit now. Roll on the summer and it will be wall to wall with people. God knows where anyone will park.

The parking is usually sufficient, especially if you don't mind walking a few hundred yards from the dips. It was a small minority of days last year when it was really rammed. Wonder how the three existing Italian eateries in New Brighton will fare now they'll be joined by a fourth! The remaining empty units could really do with something a bit different. Only so much people can eat, surely

If you want to do a weekly shop them go early or in te evening. New brighton was a dump until this came along. If you don't Like it go back to tesco or asda. It ace not having to hike all the way to cheshire oaks for a nice evening out. Only thing I would want is a bigger police presence to try and discourage drunkeness but I am just being a killjoy. I'd love them to regenerate some more and maybe even get the tatty arcade shut down!!

It's already happening (gradually) with Wetherspoons, the Queens etc. Hopefully the increased visitors will spur this along and more local businesses will get a look in.

Pizza Express & Iceland sign up at Marine Point New Brighton. Ho hum. Another identikit fast food joint and shop selling cheap poor quality frozen food laden with sugar and sat fat. And they wonder why there's an obesity epidemic.

Pizza Express ok not exactly the Ritz but i welcome it, Iceland not as much. i don't see the point of it down there with Morrissons and the Co-Op 3 minutes away also. whoever approved that needs their head seeing to.
it would have been nice to use that space that ice land is taking up for a childrens indoor play area (you know, the multicoloured ones with ball ponds and all that) or even a v. small clothing department store, or even better, an independant shop rather than a chain. but hey ho, we'll see how it goes.
i concur with the parking comment, the parking down there is abysmal as it is, this is going to make it laughable!
