Before today, the closest restaurants to Liverpool with stars are Fraiche in Birkenhead, Wirral with one star and Moor Hall in Ormskirk with two stars.

However, among today’s announcements it was confirmed that Moor Hall’s sister restaurant The Barn in Aughton had gained its first Michelin star.

Sharing the news on Twitter, the Michelin Guide said: “Two MICHELIN Starred @restmoorhall’s more informal little sister @TheBarnMH wins One MICHELIN Star for its imaginative, flavour-packed dishes which use seasonal produce from the grounds #Aughton #Lancashire #MICHELINGuideGBI #MICHELINStar”.

The Barn was quick to share the news too, tweeting: “We did it! Our first star! Absolutely thrilled!”

After the news was confirmed, Moor Hall also tweeted: “Congratulations to our little sister @TheBarnMH and @NathanCornwell1! What an amazing achievement”.
