Hometown of The Beatles and many great restaurants
Liverpool, the hometown of The Beatles and the "Three Graces" : Royal Liver Building, Cunard Building and Port of Liverpool Building – all stand on the Pier Head. And Liverpool is home to many great restaurants including eight which are recommended by the Michelin Guide.
The Liverpool branch was one of the original branches in the UK tracing it’s roots back to the day when André Simon (The Wine and Food Society founder) would set sail for America from Liverpool.
André Simon believed "The object of the Society is to bring together and serve all who believe that a right understanding of good food and wine is an essential part of personal contentment and health”
At the Liverpool branch, we do our best to live by this philosophy, not only learning about the food and wines but making sure we enjoy ourselves as we dine at some of the best restaurants in town.
We are a very friendly bunch who meet at 9 to 10 events a year and we are attracting a younger membership as we try to go ‘off-piste’ with dining experiences not always available to the general public.
We like to travel and organise discovery tours each year to fabulous wine and food regions – recent trips have included Sicily, Jerez, the Mosel and Rheingau, and Rioja. We also arrange mini-weekends to culinary hotspots
So if you are passionate about food and wine and want to know more or just want to relax with friends over a special meal and enjoy great wines, then IWFS Liverpool Branch is for you.
