He said some of the restaurants also offered wine and craft beer to enhance night-time options.

Mr Kneipp said the local dining hub was catering to a growing trend in people looking for evening dining options close to home and would also increase variety on offer by local food delivery organisations to a large established residential population across Stafford Heights, Chermside West and McDowall.

“These suburban night-time food precincts are becoming very popular … we’re starting to see more in southeast Queensland.

“There’s a great need in the area for a night-time food and entertainment precinct.”

The site, which will feature a sleek new external design will also launch a new alfresco dining area.

The shopping centre venue also includes Salty’s Grill fish and chips and Kova Coffee located in the centre’s original buildings opposite the new project.
