The much-loved takeaway has spots all over Liverpool\"Nabzy's,Nabzy’s, known for its chicken and pizza, first opened on Liverpool’s Leece Street in 2016.<\/p>\n

The owner of a Liverpool brand, who joked \u201cthere is no more room for us\u201d, has found a new location space in Dovecot. Nabeel Tabarik, from Preston, is the brains behind one of the city\u2019s most popular institutions, Nabzy\u2019s.<\/a><\/p>\n

The 38-year-old started his empire in 2016 on Leece Street in Liverpool city centre<\/a>. Fast-forward to today, and it needs no introduction with thousands of social media fans, a cult-like following among students and the stamp of approval from several high-profile celebrities.<\/p>\n

The ECHO met<\/a> with Nabeel at his West Derby<\/a> site to learn about the success of the booming business. During the interview, Nabeel revealed that a new site was on the horizon, which is set to launch this week on Friday, October 31, at 18 Dovecot Place.<\/a><\/p>\n

The news comes just weeks after the venue expanded into the north side of Manchester and Waterloo’s South Road.<\/p>\n

He told the ECHO<\/a>: \u201cIt\u2019s a really proud moment. We are opening our eighth store in Liverpool, taking the tally of franchises to 18. For the community, like we\u2019ve done in our previous stores, we are giving 100 free meals for the locals from 4pm to 8pm.<\/p>\n

“We can\u2019t thank Liverpool enough. We wouldn\u2019t be able to do this with the people. It\u2019s a very difficult market these days.\u201d<\/p>\n

Known particularly for its chicken and pizza, the company also recently announced it will be expanding into South Road in Waterloo<\/a>. This is after already having branches established in the likes of Norris Green<\/a>, Anfield<\/a>, Manchester and Chorley.<\/p>\n

Nabeel said he wouldn\u2019t be where he is today, with Nabzy’s enjoying the heights of success it does, without its community of customers.<\/p>\n

He previously said: \u201cWe started a long time ago as just kids, really. We started opposite the Bombed Out Church and rocketed from there. The rest has been history really but throughout all the years, the people have always remained for us.<\/p>\n

“Everybody has a very important role to play. I\u2019ve always wanted to do business. I\u2019ve always been interested in it, I worked at my dad\u2019s place with my four brothers when I was a teenager.<\/p>\n

“But I never thought now we\u2019d be here today. It never works out like that, you never plan it but you just keep going, putting the hard work in and then it just starts growing.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were on four sites for many years, but the interest just came, and then we were able to open more. When celebrities and influencers start taking a like to your brand, the whole city gets behind you.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery chance I get I say it, Liverpool is a special place in our hearts. We\u2019ve got no locations left, really, in the city. Every three or four miles, you will find one of us, you will find a Nabzy\u2019s. We are in most areas.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen we look at new locations, there is none left for us now. It\u2019s a totally different city here; everyone is so welcoming and of very good character.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve had the same regulars for years. We\u2019ve seen mums get pregnant and then the kids coming in at two and three-years-old. We\u2019ve been in the game for so long we are now seeing their kids.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s the same cycle and you see the customers going through all these different stages in their lives, it\u2019s so good to see.<\/p>\n

\u201cEveryone keeps coming back and that\u2019s the best thing – we aren\u2019t perfect but we are always trying to better ourselves. A lot of areas, where our shops are, are in deprived areas, and we come from these same places.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe grew up here and were brought up in council estates ourselves, so to see people spend their hard-earned money here, trying to feed their children and families, it means we need to try our best to get it right. They need to get their money\u2019s worth.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The much-loved takeaway has spots all over LiverpoolNabzy’s, known for its chicken and pizza, first opened on Liverpool’s…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":536446,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8815],"tags":[748,79486,393,786,4884,179,8899,16,15],"class_list":{"0":"post-536445","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-liverpool","8":"tag-britain","9":"tag-dovecot","10":"tag-england","11":"tag-food-and-drink","12":"tag-great-britain","13":"tag-liverpool","14":"tag-liverpool-restaurants","15":"tag-uk","16":"tag-united-kingdom"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115460132934018051","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/536445","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=536445"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/536445\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/536446"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=536445"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=536445"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=536445"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
