Liverpudlian chef Daniel Heffy (ex-Secret Diners Club & Buyers Club) has returned from Stockholm to helm an ambitious new restaurant in the Plaza building, from GSG Hospitality. Expect prime British ingredients presented with plentiful Scandinavian influences.
Harden's survey result
Summary
In April 2023, the former HQ of Littlewoods morphed into this co-venture between Liverpudlian chef Daniel Heffy and the GSG Hospitality group – a startlingly futuristic space with pod-like seating. The titular ‘Nord’ nods to both good old northern hospitality (Heffy had a hand in local haunts like cult supper club Secret Diners Club and the Buyers Club) and to the chef’s recent stint in Stockholm, meaning contemporary, ingredient-led cooking showcased in a wide range of menus (the most affordable of which is the sharing plates-style Sunday lunch). By early reports, the “beautifully cooked dishes” make it “well worth the journey” – more feedback, please!
Summary
“A strong new opening with great food!” – in a Sixties-tastic building that used to be the HQ for Littlewoods (once home to the football pools), Liverpudlian chef Daniel Heffy (ex-Secret Diners Club & Buyers Club) returned from Stockholm to helm this ambitious newcomer. It opened in April 2023 – rather late in the day to generate feedback in our annual diners’ poll – hence we’ve left it unrated, despite one very upbeat early-days report (and the Liverpool Echo and the Confidentials have both waxed lyrical about it).
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).

The chef
