Three food and drink brands – Bagel Factory, The Bus Yard and Big Kahuna – are all coming to Liverpool ONE.

Making its Liverpool debut, Bagel Factory is bringing its bagel-based grab-and-go concept, joining two motorised food and drink pop-ups, The Bus Yard and Big Kahuna.

Bagel Factory is set to bring its fast-growing enterprise to the city for the first time, selecting a kiosk on Liverpool ONE’s Wall Street.

Due to open in April, Bagel Factory’s primary focus is on sourcing high-quality ingredients to produce fresh and healthy food. Having recently become halal-friendly certified, Bagel Factory offers a range of bagel choices.

Liverpool ONE is also welcoming the return of The Bus Yard to Chavasse Park, partnering with the pop-up for a third time. The Bus Yard will install its converted vintage Bedford Truck bar, transforming Chavasse Park until August.

It will serve food and drinks, including a cocktail menu, to be enjoyed al fresco alongside deck chairs, cushions, and picnic blankets. The Bus Yard will also feature acoustic musical performances.

Liverpool-based street food vendor, Big Kahuna, is also opening on Wall Street, bringing its Thai cuisine food truck to the food landscape that Liverpool ONE has on offer.

Rob Deacon, asset management director at Liverpool ONE, said: “Liverpool ONE continues to be the destination of choice for brand’s launching debut sites in the city.

“The Bagel Factory’s commitment to Liverpool ONE, coupled with the third return of The Bus Yard and Big Kahuna’s pop-up, demonstrates the diverse range of F&B we have on offer.

“These exciting additions are set to further enliven Liverpool ONE, offering the community in the UK’s most sociable city the perfect opportunity to come together.”
