"These restaurants will make a fantastic addition to the Waterfront - creating jobs and offering further choice in the town centre for our shoppers and visitors.

"I hope this will attract more people to visit our popular Waterfront development and encourage more businesses to invest in Walsall."

Gourmet Burger Kitchen offers a range of crafted burgers include the favourite Classic Cheese to the more adventurous Blazing Sombrero, Camemburger and Buffalo.
