February 2023: Andy Smith has announced plans to close the restaurant to re-locate in Liverpool - more news and dates as we know them.

Harden's says

An 'autobiographical' restaurant from chef Andrew Sheridan (also of Craft Dining), along the same lines as Tom Aikens' Muse - Andrew describes the eight-course menu (served at 8pm, one sitting only) as "his whole career in eight courses".

* Based on a three course dinner, half a bottle of wine, coffee, cover charge, service and VAT.

Executive chef of nearby Craft and two times Great British Menu contestant Andrew Sheridan leads this October 2021 newcomer – a theatrical dining experience that doesn’t sell itself short on its website… ‘one of the most interactive, dynamic and pioneering dining experiences. Commencing in 8’s V8 Lounge, the story begins before guests are relocated to the heart of 8 where the brigade create a fully immersive dining experience around the story of 8 expertly narrated and created by 8’s Andrew Sheridan’. Afterwards, request a trip to ‘After 8’, described as ‘Quite possibly one of the most exclusive cocktail bars, ever’! Wow!!

For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
