Visitor information

The Maritime Dining Rooms is located on the fourth floor of the Grade 1 listed Merseyside Maritime Museum building. It is one of ten Liverpool restaurants recommended in the Michelin Guide to Great Britain and Ireland 2010.
Service currently runs 12 noon to 5pm, seven days a week for lunch and afternoon tea, with after hours catering for corporate and private functions.
On Mothering Sunday why not treat Mum to our delicious lunch menu - four courses with tea and coffee for just £17.95! Or you could go for a full afternoon tea for two with a bottle of Astoria Lounge Prosecco for just £25.00.
The menu has been devised by executive chef Nigel Paul Smith, who has cooked for celebrity chefs Gordon Ramsay and Paul Gayler. It celebrates British and local produce, combining classic flavours with modern presentation.
Dishes change regularly to reflect the best seasonal flavours and there are several vegetarian and vegan options. See the current menu here.
There is also a comprehensive wine list, a tempting afternoon tea menu, a children's menu, and an excellent value family meal deal.
Head chef Nigel Paul Smith said:
"Being located in a world heritage site demands that food and service standards compete with the best. It's all about simple food in an unsurpassed environment for views, maritime heritage and quality customer service".
Local architects Austin-Smith: Lord have developed the contemporary and stylish interior that features woven flooring, wave lighting and furniture by Bolon, Artemide and Andreu World.
