Dockside Dining Club will launch this spring

A new food hall inspired by London's Dalston Food Market and Amsterdam's Foodhallen is to open at Mann Island this spring.

Dockside Dining Club will have a seasonally rotating selection of ten street food vendors, the first of which are to be announced soon. The vibrant casual dining experience will comprise of a market style layout around communal bench seating. The venue will also include a fully licensed bar and the space will be available for private hire and special events.

"We want to hear from vendors in the city keen to show Liverpool for the amazing food hub it is"

Operator Andy Duckworth, who is leading the team behind the project, which includes CBRE and RBH Properties, has been inspired by a recent resurgence in food markets and halls across Europe. 

He said: “With the huge cultural agenda for 2018 for the 10th anniversary year of the Capital of Culture, it feels like a great time to be launching."

"We want to hear from vendors in the city keen to show Liverpool for the amazing food hub it is and from national restaurants that want to test out the market with a pop-up in a great location.”

Dockside Dining Club will be situated on the Strand side of the Mann Island building, neighbouring the Open Eye Gallery and the new RIBA North space. It will open all day and in the evenings.
