A steak restaurant with sites in Bristol and Cardiff has collapsed into administration.
Steak of the Art is a steakhouse and art gallery concept, serving steak sourced from West Country farmers, seafood from Cornwall and other meat dishes such as lamb and game.
The restaurant has two º£½ÇÊÓƵ venues and is run by a company called Groupco Ltd under the directorship of Stephen Bowen, a former management consultant who established the business more than a decade ago.
According to documents filed at Companies House, Groupco, trading as Steak of the Art, appointed Rob Coad and Sam Talby of Undebt as joint administrators on April 9, 2025.
Steak of the Art's venue at Churchill Way, in Cardiff, has permanently closed, according to Google, while the Bristol restaurant currently remains open with the website taking bookings. The administrators and restaurant have not responded to a request for comment from Business Live.
According to the Steak of the Art website, the restaurant at Cathedral Walk in Bristol offered diners an "original, fun and entertaining" experience, including the option of Moulin Rouge-inspired private dining. The room has space for up to 20 people and is free to hire.
It also has a separate gallery, showcasing work from local and º£½ÇÊÓƵ artists, and says it offers live music and events, including film nights and fashion show fundraisers.
The Bristol restaurant has a 4.2 rating out of five on TripAdvisor, with the last review written on April 5.
In an unaudited financial statement on Companies House - the latest document available - the company owed £410,347 to creditors as of March 31, 2024.
The average monthly number of people including directors employed by the company during the period was 38.
It is not known if any jobs are at risk due to the administration or whether the company will be put up for sale.
Business Live has contacted Undebt and Steak of the Art Bristol for comment.
