About The Art School
The set menu at £125 per person opens with champagne and amuse-bouche, proceeding through dishes that show genuine respect for seasonal produce. Askew's cooking is not chasing trends — he has a mastery of classical foundations that elevates every ingredient. His soufflés have become something of a signature; the cheese trolley, wheeled table-side with ceremony, is one of the great pleasures in Liverpool dining.
The room seats around sixty, which means it accommodates private dining, large celebrations, and the kind of long, leisurely business lunch that belongs to another era but still exists here. The three-course lunch at £55 with champagne is exceptional value for what Askew delivers.
Best Occasion Fit
The Art School is Liverpool's strongest choice for impressing clients. The room signals taste and permanence. Service is discreet and professional — ideal for conversation-heavy lunches where you need the attention of the table, not the restaurant.
