Cheshire’s renowned Indian restaurant Barton Rouge is set to open in the heart of Liverpool’s Commercial District later this month following an impressive half-a-million-pound investment.

The charcoal pit and contemporary Indian kitchen, which currently operates across Chester and Heswall, has acquired the former Anderson’s Bar located on Exchange Street in a bid to introduce authentic Indian cuisine with an innovative culinary flair to the city’s foodies.

Set across two storeys, the 5650 sq. ft. property will be transformed into a vibrant dining and drinking destination boasting an impressive 180 cover capacity. Launching exclusively at the Liverpool venue will be a novel new street food concept that has been influenced by traditional Delhi roots.

Founder of Barton Rouge Amit Kumar said: “Having established the brand back in 2011, Barton Rouge has evolved to become a one-of-a-kind Indian foodie establishment that blends traditional home cooking, which has been passed down through centuries, with a refreshing splash of modern-day culinary precision and visage. When it comes to Indian restaurants our ethos is to shy away from the take-away culture and instead capture the true essence of fine dining.

“In order to establish our third venue in a setting that reflects what we’re all about as a brand, we conducted a series of in-depth market research over the past two years to pinpoint a prime city centre location. Our new cosmopolitan postcode will provide a sleek and sophisticated setting that will allow guests to explore new-age Indian cuisine at its finest.”

In line with the venue opening, a series of new additions have been devised to offer something truly different and will comprise Old Delhi style street food such as Chandni Chowk and Dabbas in both lunch and dinner form. Menu highlights include Lamb Pepper Fry, Hyderabadi Gosht, Neelgiri Chicken, Dal Makahni, Saffron Chicken, Paneer Lambardar and Punjabi Kukkad Choley. What’s more, each dish can be perfectly paired with a range of signature cocktails that have been added to the extensive drinks menu.

Amit added: “We are excited to bring a true taste of India to Liverpool and take guests on a cultural journey that will broaden their culinary horizons. As part of on-going company developments, we plan to expand across the nation’s most prominent cities to create a never-been-done-before franchise of new-age Indian cuisine.”

Barton Rouge is set to open its doors to the public later this month and has created 30 new local jobs.
