St John\u2019s Road in Waterloo has quietly been transforming in recent years. Once best known for its barber shops, nail salons and discount furniture stores, the street is now finding a new energy, with cafes, eateries and bars drawing in locals and visitors alike. Soon, it will welcome another addition – and this one promises a sun-drenched twist.<\/p>\n
Next month, Medusa will open its doors, bringing Greek-inspired small plates, cocktails and a laid-back Mediterranean spirit to the heart of Waterloo<\/a>. Behind the project is 30-year-old Adam Noble, from Fazakerley<\/a>, who already runs the popular Noble\u2019s Kitchen food truck, touring the country to cater to festivals and other events.<\/p>\n For Adam, Medusa represents a long-held dream. He told the ECHO<\/a>: \u201cI started as a food truck and that\u2019s still very much ongoing. The end goal was always to have a restaurant.\u201d<\/p>\n He\u2019d been quietly keeping an eye out for the right space when the premises of Il Capitano\u2019s – a successful local Italian restaurant – came up for sale. The owners are relocating around the corner to a bigger space<\/a> due to demand.<\/p>\n Adam explained: \u201cA lot of restaurants go up for sale for the wrong reasons. But this place had worked as a restaurant for six years, so that really caught my eye.\u201d<\/p>\n While he\u2019s no stranger to Crosby<\/a> and Waterloo<\/a>, Adam admits he didn\u2019t know St John\u2019s Road well until recently. That first visit left an impression.<\/p>\n He said: \u201cI was surprised how communal it is. Everyone\u2019s so friendly and welcoming. The people there are dead proud of where they live and just want you to do well. That community feel really caught me by surprise.\u201d<\/p>\n The name Medusa hints at the concept. Adam and his partner are passionate about Greece – they\u2019re even getting married there next year – and they\u2019ve been serving Greek dishes from the food truck for the past two years.<\/p>\n But this won\u2019t be a traditional Greek taverna. Adam said: \u201cI absolutely love Greek food but what I don\u2019t love about Greek restaurants is, for example, if you order moussaka, you just get a big slab of it – it’s a bit much. I like to experience other flavours.<\/p>\n “So what we\u2019re doing is taking these classic Greek dishes and turning them into small plates. Tapas places are really popular right now because people like sharing and trying different things together.\u201d<\/p>\n The menu will feature favourites like moussaka, reimagined for grazing and sharing, as well as gyros and souvlaki. There will also be Greek-themed cocktails to pair with the food.<\/p>\n![\"Adam](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/1_image_6483441-2023-04-28T094116119JPG.jpg\")
