A ST HELENS town centre restaurant is calling on people to carve them some spooky pumpkins - and be in with a chance of winning vouchers!

36 Bridge Street, St Helens is hosting a special Halloween collaboration event with Baldy's Dark Kitchen this Friday.

To add to the atmosphere the venue - formerly known as Vigour - is in need of some spooky creations as backdrops.

Restaurant bosses are seeking "five pumpkin masterpieces".

Up for grabs are five £20 vouchers for 36 Bridge Street - there could be five separate winners or one carver who makes all five could scoop the lot.

The restaurant has asked people to post pictures and entries in the comment section of its social media pages.

They added: "We can either put it to a public vote or we’ll pick them out depending on the response 👌🏻 Winners will be picked Thursday evening (pumpkins to be collected that evening or Friday morning)."

Owner Ant Georgiou told the Star earlier this year of the move rebrand from Vigour to '36 Bridge St' .

Slimming down the menu and focusing on "good quality food", the change seems to have paid off as the five-star reviews have continued and the business remains as St Helens' top-rated restaurant on Trip Advisor.

36 Bridge St' offers a selection of favourite restaurant meals, with a commitment to high-quality cookery.

This includes salt and pepper chicken, grilled halloumi wraps, steak, burgers, and Sunday roasts, as well as a selection of hearty brunch options.

A small plate offer remains as starter options, which includes salt and pepper ribs, chorizo and parmesan croquettes, and short-rib tacos.

To create a more vibrant atmosphere, live singers now perform at weekends, while the popular private events will infrequently remain, with the latest collaboration with 'Baldy's Dark Kitchen' taking place earlier this month. 

Speaking about the business and rebrand, to the Star  earlier this year, Ant, 35, said: "Over the past seven years, we inevitably made mistakes and I think some customers were unsure what our offer was because we adapted quite a lot.

"You have to adapt to the times that you're in but we have learned a lot of lessons over the years.

"This is why we think it is best to offer a smaller menu with good quality food and give people the best we can, from the menu to the service.

"It's been a fresh start and the rebrand has definitely appealed to more customers who we hadn't seen before."
