About
The Art School Restaurant is a fine dining addition to Liverpool’s rapidly growing food and drink culture.
Housed in the former sculpture room of the Liverpool John Moores University fine arts faculty, this elegant venue is a genuine labour of love for award-winning chef and regional food champion Paul Askew. Features of the original building have been carefully blended into a modern ‘old meets new’ approach - with a relaxing log-fire in the bar, a stylishly comfortable 50-cover dining area with soft natural lighting from a Victorian lantern glass ceiling, and a viewing window to the kitchen.
The mission is to deliver the highest possible dining standards in one of the city’s richest areas in terms of art and culture. Innovative seasonal menus are developed from the finest regional produce – with real food and great flavours complimented by a carefully chosen 230-bin wine and Champagne list and an exclusive range of organic spirits.
The international team of experienced chefs, waiters and sommeliers includes home-grown talent that is recruited and mentored as part of an ongoing commitment to local apprenticeship schemes.
Prices start from £23.50 for two courses.
