thirteen Hospitality is a boutique hospitality consultancy shaped by two decades of real-world experience creating and operating standout venues across the North West of England — and now offering services across the UAE and beyond.

Founded by Paul Senior founder of DGB Hospitality group, thirteen specialises in brand creation, venue development, and operational strategy, helping operators elevate their guest experience while strengthening the commercial backbone of their business.

From concept development and menu direction to team culture, financial structure, and long-term growth planning, thirteen works as a trusted partner to ambitious hospitality businesses who want to stand out, scale intelligently, and build brands that last.

We combine creative vision, operational expertise, and board-level insight to deliver honest, practical, commercially driven consultancy. Our work spans the UK, UAE, and international projects — always rooted in a genuine love for hospitality done properly.

At thirteen, we don’t just advise on how a venue should look, feel, and operate.
We help define and grow hospitality brands with longevity and soul.
