🏖️ Kitchen Refurbishment – Deal Pier Kitchen

🌊 A New Era for an Iconic Seaside Venue on the Historic Deal Pier

👥 Client Overview: Reviving a Coastal Landmark

Deal Pier Kitchen sits at the end of Deal’s iconic 1950s pier — a cherished Kent coast landmark. After over a year of closure, new owners Tim and Rebecca, hospitality pros with backgrounds in large-scale catering and street food innovation, took on the challenge to revive the venue.

Having previously stripped out the original kitchen, our team knew the site well, giving us a head start in transforming the space into a modern, community-focused eatery serving high-quality, locally sourced food and drinks.

🎯 Project Brief: A Clean Slate for a Fresh Concept

Tim and Rebecca’s vision centred on:

• Modern, energy-efficient equipment

• Full safety compliance

• A vibrant yet practical kitchen space able to handle fast-paced service and culinary excellence

Our task: design and deliver a commercial kitchen fit for a busy seafront location — all within the constraints of a unique pier site.
