The graduation restaurant in Liverpool & Manchester
Years of work, late nights and deadlines — and now the moment to actually celebrate. At Sapporo, your graduation dinner isn't just a meal. Your own teppanyaki chef cooks and performs a live show right at the table, making it an evening that matches the occasion.
Whether you're marking the end of university, a master's, a professional qualification or anything in between, Sapporo is one of the best graduation restaurants in Liverpool and Manchester. Sociable, lively, and genuinely unlike anywhere else.
A graduation dinner that actually feels like a celebration
Most restaurants give you a table, a menu and a bill. Sapporo gives you a chef who performs knife skills and flame shows while cooking some of the best Japanese food in the city — and everyone sits together around the grill.
It's perfect for mixed groups of graduates, parents and friends. One booking, one shared table, one evening everyone will still be talking about long after the gown goes back.
