The Pen Factory: Liverpool’s Hidden Gem on Hope Street
The Pen Factory is a friendly bar-restaurant tucked below the hustle and bustle of Hope Street, Liverpool.
Centred around an open kitchen run by head chef Carlos Brito, the regularly changing menu reflects seasonality, spontaneity and the joy of cooking.
The extensive bar showcases great beers from the UK and Europe, including an ever-changing cask ale and craft line-up, while the wine list focuses on quality and drinkability. Our cocktail list brings together house-specials and classics, all blended by our expert staff.
Located at the centre of Liverpool’s cultural institutions, The Pen Factory is perfect for swift pre-theatre meals, business lunches, and – with excellent Wi-Fi and sockets to keep you charged – even as a workspace.
The generous bar, dining and outdoor spaces host regular events, including food and drinks tastings, live music, and games nights. Check out our social pages to see the latest events calendar.
Advance bookings can be made online, or you can call on the day to reserve a table. Walk-ins are always welcome and we will make every effort to accommodate last-minute plans.
Open from 11:00 until late, Tuesday to Saturday.
