The Yorkshire-based garage and events space, The Motorist, has launched a motor- themed restaurant called ‘The Arnage’, with a menu created by award- winning chef Ian Matfin.

The Motorist, which is based in Sherburn in Elmet, is already home to a themed café, garage and showroom and regularly hosts events for up to 900 people.

The menu includes a selection of dishes on the ‘Starting Grid’, such as sea salt and rosemary focaccia and honey glazed pork chipolatas, with the ‘Formation Lap’ offering the likes of crispy ham hock fritter and whipped chicken liver parfait.

The venue has been designed by Daniel Spinks, the son of the founder Simon Spinks, and in-house designer, Hayley Melling, who has worked for the businesses across the events team.

The space will include 78 covers in the downstairs restaurant, 100 covers in its corporate upstairs lounge, Club Le Mans, as well as an additional 24 covers split across three different private dining rooms.
