     Southend Business Improvement District & Cultural Events
     A Business Improvement District is a defined geographical area and within it
     businesses opt to pay an additional amount so that services can be provided
     that they, as a group of businesses, want to have.
     The Southend BID was formed in 2013 to ensure that the High Street and
     Seafront make the most of their combined potential via collaboration and
     their aims are to raise the profile of Southend, increase footfall, dwell time
     and spend within the BID zone and Southend generally.
     Southend hosts a Horror Film Festival, a Jazz Festival and a (non-Horror!)
     Film Festival. Regular events are scheduled throughout the year to mark
     special occasions (e.g. Chinese New Year) with music, dancing, fire works
     displays and other free entertainment.

                                 We understand the unit trades very well. The challenges of Covid-19 have
                                 led to an increased use of technology and greater demand from customers
                                 seeking delivery locally. As a result the restaurant is thriving with sustained
                                 demand from traditional walk-in customers too.
