The Reader Bar & Restaurant offers diners a bistro-style menu, inspired by continental European flavours and created using locally sourced seasonal produce.

The Reader Bar & Restaurant was established in Liverpool city centre in 2023 by leading national charity The Reader, which brings people together and books to life in Shared Reading groups, and whose headquarters is based in south Liverpool’s Calderstones Park. Profits from every meal bought at The Reader Bar & Restaurant will be used to support the life-changing work of the organisation.

Open Monday to Saturday from midday until late. Keep an eye on the Creative Tourist Literature Guide for upcoming events.
