Wheeler’s of St James’s – the oldest fish brand in the world – is being brought to Liverpool by Marco Pierre White.
The top-end seafood restaurant will open at Pullman Liverpool in November, on the city’s UNESCO world heritage waterfront, with 120 covers. It’s the second Wheeler’s to open in the UK.
Marco Pierre White says: “The Wheeler’s brand carries with it certain standards, and certain connotations. It’s about the highest quality of oysters, the freshest seafood and a memorable experience. This is exactly what I want to bring to Liverpool.
“I can see from the success of my Liverpool Steakhouse Bar & Grill that the people of this city have an appetite and a desire for high-quality restaurants, and with the amazing location paired with a menu which I take great pride in, locals and tourists alike will find this to their taste.”
Neil Brailsford, General Manager of Pullman Liverpool, says: “We are thrilled that Marco Pierre White, a world-renowned chef, has chosen to bring his first Wheeler’s restaurant outside of London to Pullman Liverpool.
“Our hotels are designed to reflect the vibrant local culture and character of the neighbourhood and Wheeler’s, offering the highest-quality seafood on this historic waterfront, is the perfect choice for us.
“We look forward to working with Marco and the team.”
