Bloomfield Central Leisure Park – Blackpool

Bowman Riley has helped revitalise Bloomfield Central leisure park in Blackpool with the design of a vibrant new bingo hall and a convenient drive-thru Starbucks coffee shop.

Working alongside Aim Capital, the new owners of Bloomfield Central, we have supported the redevelopment of the park to better meet the local market needs. Close to Blackpool Football Club’s stadium, Bloomfield Central is a small yet significant leisure hub, now poised for a fresh chapter.

On the site of a once-struggling pub, we designed a modern 25,000ft2 single-storey bingo hall for Club3000. Far from a typical, windowless box, we created an striking bespoke building with feature glazing on the active façade.

Midway through construction, the main contractor went into administration, leaving the building exposed to the elements. We worked quickly on behalf of our client to source a new contractor to repair the water damage and complete the building.

Adding to the park’s appeal, we designed a stylish new drive-thru coffee shop on the former site of a Frankie and Benny’s restaurant. Now occupied by Starbucks, this cosy spot offers visitors a place to relax, meet friends, or grab a quick coffee on the go.

Additionally to support the operations of the leisure park, we reconfigured the car park and created new site access.

These developments inject new energy into Bloomfield Central, elevating the leisure experience for everyone who visits.
