Michael's is a cosy, candlelit, neighbourhood restaurant in the heart of Birkdale with Chef Michael Wichmann at the helm. This is his first solo venture after a career spanning thirty years in some of the world's top hotels and restaurants, including the Michelin starred La Truffe restaurant in Frankfurt, the Savoy Hotel, London and most recently the Sheraton Dubai Creek Hotel and Towers, Dubai. Michael aims for a relaxed, unpretentious atmosphere in which diners can enjoy top quality food.

Since its opening in 2005 Michael's has received an excellent response from both customers and the media, having been listed in The Times Top Ten Warm Welcomes being voted through to the final three restaurants in the prestigious Restaurant of the Year Awards 2007/2008 by Lancashire Life Magazine. Michael has also often been invited to be the resident chef on BBC Radio Merseyside on Sunday afternoons cooking dishes from the restaurant menu live in the studio.
