The Old Blind School site opens as a Floral Fairytale Masterpiece to reveal: The Florist Liverpool!
The Florist, Liverpool’s new contemporary bar and restaurant will be ‘blooming’ into action today, Monday 23rd April. Situated on the site of the former Old Blind School pub, The Florist breathes new life into the stunning Grade II listed building, once home to the Royal School for the Blind. The Florist is set to charm the city with breathtaking floral installations, which are sure to be Instagram gold and like nothing Liverpool has ever seen before.
We were lucky enough to be invited to have a sneak peak at the ‘floral fairy tale masterpiece’ along with Liverpool’s fabulous bloggers and journalists, for a series of expertly led experiences to charm the senses and then returning the next day for a gorgeous Sunday Roast.
On arrival, we were greeted with cocktails and given a tour of the venue and what will be on offer to the public. We were blown away by the ‘picture perfect’ interior, the gorgeous Georgian architecture, the floral fixtures and attention to detail in every room.
With an abundance of flowers flowing throughout the beautiful venue, key features include a stunning entrance hall with two full-size in-bloom trees. There will also be a floral photo-wall, taking centre stage at the top of the grand staircase. Predicted to be the most photographed bar in Liverpool, the unique venue will be a complete transformation and unrecognisable from its previous self.
General Manager of The Florist, Joel Lee said;
“The Florist Liverpool needs be seen to be believed how pretty and light the site has now become.
We know it is going to become the place to be in Liverpool and we can’t wait to open.
We have so much to offer, from the extensive cocktail menu inspired by the three key styles of floristry: English Summer Garden, Ikebana and Modern Contemporary, with herbal twists taken fresh from the garden.
60 hand-picked beers and a vibrant food menu, consisting of mouth-watering deli, rotisserie and grill-inspired dishes, with plenty of gluten free, dairy free and vegan options to cater for all. We will also be open for brunch on Saturdays and Sundays from 9.30am.
For a really special experience, we are offering sensory enhancing masterclasses in the crafts of cocktails, floristry, gin and ale tastings.”
