**130 Colmore Row** [1] is a [Grade II listed](/source/Listed_building) building in the city centre of [Birmingham](/source/Birmingham), [England](/source/England). The building was built in 1903 as the main office for [Alliance Assurance](/source/RSA_Insurance_Group) by architecture firm Goddard & Co. of [Leicester](/source/Leicester). The building served as an office and banking hall for Alliance Assurance until the 1990s when it was bought by [Birmingham City Council](/source/Birmingham_City_Council) and became a tourist information office and later a careers centre. In 2013 the building was sold to a Chinese Investment Consortium who turned the vacant building into a restaurant named 'Nosh and Quaff'. As of 2019, It is now open as a Bar, Nightclub and Restaurant named "Theatrix".

## Nosh & Quaff

The restaurant Nosh and Quaff opened in July 2015 after a £1 million internal fit out by Keane Design Associates. The restaurant is run by [Aktar Islam's](/source/Aktar_Islam) Lasan Group and specialises in lobster and beer.[2]
