The Italian Club Family is a Liverpool favourite that combines restaurant, deli and bakery under one roof, offering a true taste of Italy in the city. Inspired by the way food is shared in Italian villages and mountain homes, the concept celebrates generous hospitality and authentic flavours in a welcoming setting.
From the outside, it looks like a traditional Italian eatery, complete with pavement tables for al fresco dining. Inside, large floor-to-ceiling windows flood the room with light, while wooden floors, shelves stocked with wine and a deli counter showcasing fresh produce set the tone. The atmosphere is relaxed and traditional, making it just as suitable for casual lunches as it is for family gatherings or celebrations with friends.
Menus begin with simple nibbles such as olives, bread and bruschetta, leading into antipasti dishes like oven-baked king prawns, fried calamari and Sicilian arancini made with saffron, peas and mozzarella. A wide selection of sandwiches and pizzas includes both classics such as Margherita and diavola, and more creative toppings with wild mushrooms and black truffle. Pasta is a highlight, with options ranging from cannelloni filled with chicken and mushrooms to lasagne and seafood spaghetti.
The Italian Club Family also offers a dedicated fish menu, featuring shellfish starters such as fish cakes, grilled Spanish octopus and a soup of clams, mussels and cockles. Mains include lobster, seafood pasta and grilled platters of fish and shellfish. Secondi plates range from pollo Milanese to risotto with smoked haddock and leek, as well as chargrilled sirloin with peppercorn sauce. Desserts stick to Italian classics, with tiramisu, biscotti and gelato among the favourites.
With vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free choices available, and a bakery offering breads and cakes to take home, The Italian Club Family is more than a restaurant - it is a hub for Italian food and culture in Liverpool.
