Since opening this summer, Elevate Brasserie & Bar at Bournemouth International Centre has welcomed more than 20K visitors.
Opened in July 2023, Elevate is set in a prime location at the front of Bournemouth International Centre (BIC). There is indoor and covered outdoor seating with stunning views across the seafront.
Boasting a seasonally-led menu incorporating locally sourced ingredients, Elevate has already proven popular with families, residents and tourists and has received some stellar online reviews;
“The place is lovely, staff are excellent, fast service and the food we ordered was delicious.” One reviewer said.
Another commented;
“The staff are exceptional – we received a warm, friendly welcome and good service throughout our visit. We’ll definitely be back soon!”
Elevate is open to the public as well as showgoers and conference delegates who are attending events at Bournemouth Pavilion and Bournemouth International Centre (BIC).
Visitors this year have included the Liberal Democrats when attending their annual Autumn conference and Bournemouth University students and families for graduation ceremony celebrations. The setting was also popular during Bournemouth Air Festival and over the summer school holidays.
Elevate is open for drinks and food seven days a week. During January-March 2024 on non-event days its winter opening hours are Wednesdays-Sundays from 12.00 -20.00
Bournemouth International Centre is operated by registered charity BH Live in partnership with BCP Council.
Mathijs Pol, BH Live’s Head of Hospitality who created and launched the Elevate Bar and Brasserie concept said;
“It is so wonderful to recognise what a local asset Elevate Brasserie & Bar has already become. To have welcomed so many visitors and high-profile customers is such a credit to our fantastic team. When there is a show at the BIC we are fully booked every night which demonstrates how popular and convenient our customers are finding Elevate.
Mathijs added;“Since opening we’ve been listening to customer feedback and expanded our offer to include a cocktail menu, happy hour every day between 5-7pm, plus special offers for event goers.
“What’s even better is because BH Live is a registered charity, any surplus generated through commercial activity such as this is reinvested back into the local community to improve public facilities and services.”
