Asian-themed food market coming to Liverpool city centre

The team behind the Jidong Bubble Tea chain is launching a new Asian-themed food market in Liverpool bringing a selection of international food outlets to the city centre.

Located near Berry Street, Bold Street and Leece Street, Renshaw Street Food Market will be home to a variety of food and drink specialists that will bring a “casual-yet-cosmopolitan” option for dining.

The new food market will include stalls from a variety of brands that are popular around the world, including Dagu Rice Noodle and Ndo Sushi.

The interior of Renshaw Food Market is inspired by cyberpunk with a combination of futuristic technologies and Chinese elements. This includes neon lights, dragons and tigers, transporting visitors to Asia's bustling nightlife.

Shanghai-based Jidong Bubble Tea has more than 3,000 stores around the world and opened its first UK outlet in 2019.

Renshaw Street Market proprietor and Jidong Bubble Tea entrepreneur Xiaoyu Zhou said: “We are so thrilled and excited to be launching Renshaw Street Food Market in November. All of the cuisines on offer we know will be hugely popular with local clients and visiting tourists alike, who love to experiment and try out every type of cuisine. Now they will get the chance to sample any dish they choose from our vendors, which is wonderful for casual diners.

“The market itself is impressive at 450 sqm, and we still have a few spots available, after a very quick uptake from interested brands. I have been so pleased at the success and growth of our Jidong Bubble Tea stores in the area, and after talking to our clients, who enjoy giving us feedback and telling us about what they want, it seemed the perfect opportunity in terms of location, timing and brand inclusion to launch a food market to match their exacting needs.

“We will be open daily from 11am until midnight, and our warm, welcoming, easy atmosphere will provide the perfect setting for everyone enjoying autumn days out, evenings in the city, and of course, Christmas shopping and occasions.

“Liverpool has already been so kind to the Jidong Bubble Tea outlets, and we look forward to sitting alongside other inventive brands at Renshaw Street Food Market, whose benchmark in standards matches ours, to ensure that all of our guests enjoy a brilliant experience in eating out with us all.”

Renshaw Street Market is launching in November at 85-97 Renshaw Street, L1 2SP.
