Southport lays on a treat for diners BY ANNIE WILLIAMS Southport is getting behind its independent eateries this month as it hosts its first ever Restaurant Week event. Taking place from February 16 – 24 the special week aims to address the slowdown in dining out after Christmas and boost sales ahead of the new season. Hoping to raise the profiles of cafes and restaurants in the area, the event will include range of offers, pop-up themed events and set menu deals at some of the
town’s most prestigious restaurants. Sarah Rodriguez, Marketing & Events Coordinator of Southport BID, told Liverpool Life: “Southport’s restaurant and bar scene has flourished in recent months and years, and as a town we have independent businesses to be very proud of. “We wanted to create a week in which people can take advantage of great offers, set menus or events to try somewhere new and to discover just how outstanding our restaurant scene is.
“From pubs to fine dining we have some great venues on board and more on the way.” Deals include kids eat free at Bistrot Pierre and Churrasco, free wine at Auberge Brasserie, two courses for just £5.95 at Cheshire Line or steak & wine for two for £24 at Forge Brasserie and many more. Sarah said: “We would love to see families, visitors and locals alike take advantage of all that is on offer and share the experiences they have with others to help spread the word.”
