The Good Hood Southport

A new New York style restaurant and bar is opening at Ocean Plaza Leisure in Southport this week. 

The Good Hood, which claims it serves “the best burgers in Wirral” from its existing eateries in West Kirkby and New Brighton, will open to the public this Tuesday (12th March 2024) following a soft launch this evening. 

The Good Hood is opening in the unit previously occupied by Rado’s World Tapas. 

A Good Hood spokesperson said: “We are absolutely buzzing! Don’t run, walk! 

“We are so ready for our customers, we’re so excited to open our doors. Everything’s come together so well. 

“Thank you to everyone that’s helped get this place looking how we wanted. Now it’s time you try this insane menu.” 

The Good Hood is “home to home-made burger patties, unique NYC pizza slabs, butter-fried chicken, and cocktails that are off the hook”.

On their Instagram page, they said: “Get ready for an epic journey as we transform this space into the ultimate haven for the best burgers, pizzas, sides, and desserts in the North of England. Join our family-run adventure!

“Get ready, Southport! The best burgers from the Wirral are making their way to town this month. The Good Hood is coming to level up your dining experience!

“Our mouthwatering pizzas, burgers, chicken, and desserts are about to elevate your food game.The Good Hood is coming to level up your dining experience!” 

The Good Hood says its values are “fresh, fun and offering all our customers that comfortable sense of community in the heart of your street… your HOOD!”

“Our Food?  Well, that’s just OFF THE CHAIN!”

The Good Hood will soon be joined by two more new restaurants at Ocean Plaza Leisure in Southport, creating 40 new jobs. 

Kaspa’s Doner & Gyros and Kaspa’s Desserts will breathe new life into the 369 sq m unit which has been vacant since Frankie & Benny’s closed at the onset of the Covid pandemic in March 2020. 

It is further good news for the leisure park, which saw the new Coastline Crossfit gym and the Wareing Brothers cafe opening last summer.

Planning permission has also been granted for work to start on a new Victorian-style train station terminal for the Southport Pleasureland Miniature Railway, with a fish & chip café and an ice cream parlour, creating 10 new jobs. 

The new additions will add to the leisure and hospitality offering already at Ocean Plaza Leisure, which includes Vue Cinema, Tenpin bowling, Playtown children’s centre, Roberto’s Italian restaurant, Everlast Gym, Nando’s restaurant and Evans Cycles.
