🌟 Sad News for Liverpool’s Food Lovers 🌟
The beloved Christakis restaurant on Aigburth Road has closed its doors, ending a five-year run that brought a taste of Greece to Liverpool. Owner Christakis Georgiou recently shared the heart-breaking news with his dedicated team after unsuccessful lease negotiations and a sale of the building.
Despite pouring tens of thousands into a stunning refurbishment, including new flooring and furniture, Christakis had no choice but to halt operations. Loyal foodies and long-serving staff, including two chefs who’ve been with him for over 20 years, are devastated by the unexpected closure.
But this isn’t the end! Christakis is already searching for a new location in bustling areas like Woolton Village, Lark Lane, and Bold Street. He’s determined to bring back the familiar ‘how are you, Mr Christakis?’ from his cherished customers. His team is ready to join him in this new chapter – just give it a bit of time.
The family won’t be disappearing entirely from Liverpool’s food scene, as their Baltic Market stall will continue to trade. Meanwhile, Christakis’s son, Renos, who manages family operations, promises exciting expansions in Manchester, London, and Birmingham.
From a family with a rich history in Liverpool’s hospitality scene, starting with Renos’ grandfather back in the late ’60s, this crowd-favourite brand isn’t saying goodbye. Just a “see you soon” – at a different address but with the same delicious Greek flavours and friendly smiles.
Stay tuned for updates as the Georgiou family cooks up a comeback! 🌟🥙💪
