Birmingham’s Woolworth Recreation and Refreshment Drawing Crowds

By Justin Averette

The Woolworth Recreation and Refreshment offers something for everyone. So much so you may never have a reason to leave.

The new entertainment concept in Birmingham’s Five Points brings duckpin bowling to the Magic City while offering food, drink and other games.

Orchestra Partners, as well as the owners of Paramount and El Barrio restaurants, worked to bring new life to the former department store building and namesake.

“We want it to be whatever you want it to be once you walk in,” said owner and operator Neville Baay, who has stepped back from Paramount and El Barrio to focus on getting Woolworth off the ground. “If you want to bring some friends, eat, drink some beer and watch football, you can do that. If you want to bring your kids and play pingpong, that’s fine. Or a corporate event that’s centered around bowling. Or a first date on the roof. We wanted it to be something where you can come in and not have a reason to leave.”
