Smoke + Ash, the much-loved Neapolitan-style pizzeria, is set to expand into the neighbouring property at 13 Greenfield Crescent, significantly increasing its size in Edgbaston Village, part of the renowned Calthorpe Estate.
Since opening almost two years ago, Smoke + Ash has quickly become a firm favourite for its authentic pizzas, carefully curated wine list, and innovative seasonal cocktails. The move into the adjacent property reflects the restaurant’s growing popularity with both locals and visitors alike.
Paul Collins, owner of Smoke + Ash, shared his thoughts on the expansion: “We’ve had trouble keeping up with the demand for tables, especially at weekends. This additional space will allow us to seat more diners and introduce a lounge area where guests can stay a little longer to enjoy our cocktails and wine.”
The expansion will further enhance the dining scene in Edgbaston Village, aligning with Calthorpe Estates’ vision to create a thriving leisure and lifestyle destination in the heart of Edgbaston.
Tom Foley, Asset Manager at Calthorpe Estates, said: “It’s been a pleasure working with Smoke + Ash since they arrived in Edgbaston Village. Their growth in such a short space of time is a testament to their hard work and innovative approach. Given the current challenging economic climate, it’s especially impressive to see their continued success.”
Smoke + Ash’s expansion represents a positive step for the restaurant and further cements Edgbaston Village’s reputation as a vibrant dining and leisure destination in Birmingham.
