Seafood & Steak Co. is a concept created by Glen Downey of Downeys Fish & Chips.
Whilst the family run business is famed for its classic Fish & Chips in the region, they decided they wanted something a little more upmarket in their offering. Seafood and Steak Co. does exactly just that. Serving high quality steaks and lobster on the seafront at Seaburn Beach in Sunderland.
The deign brief was quite open in that the client wanted a small venue which is situated on the ground floor of STACK, SEABURN – a ‘shipping container’ venue with multiple food and drink outlets. An obvious destination site in the summertime, they wanted something which would remain appealing on the cold dark nights in January as well as the warmer months. The interior offers smoldering dark wood polish shades against the warm orange tones on the ceilings and highlighted in the flooring. The venue is small and therefore customers experience an intimate meal whilst being served fantastic food and superb wine choices. The paneling to the walls and ceilings almost draw in closer to this already bijou environment, but these details ensure there is always something to notice. The lighting and the fun framed images on the walls remind you that you’re here to have a good time and relax.
