Two Merseyside restaurants have been included in the prestigious Harden's Best UK Restaurants 2023 guide.
Harden's comprehensive guide includes more than 3,000 entries, and aims to showcase the UK's hospitality industry, including venues in the famed big cities, and smaller, lesser known sites spotted in towns and areas that aren't as well known. The number one spot went to Restaurant Andrew Fairlie at The Gleneagles Hotel in Perthshire, but the North West was one of the best performing regions outside of London.
There's an impressive 38 'Top Scoring' restaurants in the area, nine of which have made it into the acclaimed Harden's Top 100, including two in Merseyside. The Art School Restaurant and Fraiche both retained places in this year's top 100, as did Moor Hall in Aughton, near Ormskirk.
