If you haven't heard, the Michelin Guide recommended, Liquid Bread Gastropub, closed its doors on Sunday, June 25th after a last hurrah to celebrate five great years and thank their staff for all the work they put into making it five glorious years of beer inspired cuisine in Downtown Campbell. The head chef, John Burke, will be moving on and making guest stints at various restaurants around the Bay Area.
The restaurant will close, but only for a short period before it gets a reboot under the same ownership. Stay tuned as to just what the next act to follow in the footsteps of Liquid Bread Gastropub and that amazing Bearnaise Burger.
Bitter sweet! Last Bearnaise Burgers on the grill and @caballoanejo last day! #bittersweet #thanksforeverythingsteve #liquidbread #downtowncampbell #dipsomania
