The Story Behind “Beef & Liberty”

Let Beef & Liberty be my reward.

In 1735, a British gentleman and actor named John Rich founded a club called ‘The Sublime Society for Beefsteaks’ in London. The Society was a gathering place for London’s intelligentsia, which celebrated the consumption of beef and steak in particular. It was also a venue in which the members met to discuss the major issues of the day, partake in good food and drink, and enjoy each other’s company. The society’s members had to swear an oath which ended with: “…so beef and liberty be my reward”.

Today, Beef & Liberty is a British inspired Bistro founded on the same principles. We are a full service restaurant greeting our guests in stylish surroundings and with friendly, professional service where our guests can get together to socialize over the best of British cooking. We specialize in seasonal ingredients with a focus on grass-fed dry-aged beef steaks and our signature hamburgers, which are ground in-house twice a day, served on a custom baked white roll with minimal fuss but maximum obsession. To this honest and tasty food, add your friends and family, top it off with some wonderful wines, great craft beers or a fresh Liberty lemonade and you’ve got our version of what a great British dining experience should be. We hope you enjoy it.”
