The restaurant is named it the Architect in honour of Thomas Harrison, a prolific Georgian architect who designed the Grosvenor Bridge and much of Chester Castle, among many other classical structures.

Charles Cockerell, a fellow architect and contemporary, described the house as ‘..well conceived, broad, elegant and simple’.
