Steve Lakeman, restaurant manager, Steak of the Art
Steve Lakeman will now take on the day-to-day management of Steak of the Art - a new venture that when open will cater for around 100 people serving locally sourced steaks alongside an art gallery.
A well-known face on the Bristol scene, Lakeman was previously in charge of Aqua Italia on Welsh Back. Prior to that he was in charge of opening and running Hall and Woodhouse’s £6.3m flagship site in Bath city centre. He is now planning on using his extensive experience to establish Steak of the Art as one of Bristol’s best destination restaurants as well as making it a centre for the dynamic Bristol art scene.
“This is a really exciting new concept and one I really believe will capture the imagination of the people of Bristol," he said. "Not only will customers be able to enjoy some top quality food but they will also be able to take in some excellent art. The area has really grown over the last year and to be located near the waterside and alongside the famous Brunel Mile will really help make this part of Bristol one to head for."
