Harden's says

The venue has moved from its former Duke Street food market location to this new home in the Georgian Quarter, in the Grade II listed former Royal School for the Blind.

* Based on a three course dinner, half a bottle of wine, coffee, cover charge, service and VAT.

This “lively place” on the mezzanine of the city centre’s Duke Street food market serves “nicely presented dishes”, and benefits from the involvement of Merseyside food heroes Paul Askew (of The Art School) and Harry Marquart (Bone & Block). Aiming to provide an ‘intimate Scouse brasserie’, it launched in late 2021.

Open in December 2021 – no feedback as yet on this new venture, which has a bird’s eye view over the very good-looking Duke Street food market from its mezzanine. A number of local food glitterati are involved (including The Art School’s Paul Askew and Bone & Block’s Harry Marquart). The menu’s local sourcing is evident, with the aim of creating an ‘intimate Scouse brasserie’.

"Food was stand out as always, the seafood chowder was fantastic as was the beef with polenta. The SOS cocktail is a favourite. However for the first time we found the service not so great. A new and much bigger venue now they’ve moved so we’d happily go back as we’ve had many wonderful meals with them at their former location. "
