Hide AdPartners in business and in real life - Robert Wood and his fiancee Kyndra Vorster - bring their third venture together - Lucky 7.
The announcement was made on Twitter and the team said: “Lucky7 is a new cocktail bar from Robert & Kyndra (previously 18/81) and will land on 2nd June in Jewellery Quarter. Expect delicious cocktails, beer, snacks and vibes We can’t wait to welcome you to our new space. See you very soon Birmingham.”
Customers have been asked to remember the Kanji characters from Japan which say Lucky 7 as they’ll need them “very soon to help find” the bar.
They have described Lucky 7 as a modern day Izakaya - a type of informal Japanese bar that serves alcoholic drinks and snacks.

Wood and Vorster met at Birmingham’s award-winning hotel and drinks destination The Edgbaston, which has since closed, and have created some amazing experiences for Brummies.
