Liverpool - places to eat

[PurpleSweetPeas]

I had some amazing ideas from you lovely lot, of things to do in Liverpool for my Beatle mad husband and some great alternative ideas for me when I was planning his 50th birthday surprise earlier this year.
Time has flown and we go on Thursday - very excited.

Does anyone have recommendations for places to eat that won't break the bank. We will eat anything so no restrictions.

We have breakfast at the hotel so hoping to fill up until tea time with perhaps a snack in between.

Also open to any other ideas of places to go I might not have thought about. Think I've got The Beatles bit covered though. There's only so much I can take At this point, the cheaper the better!

Almost Famous
Crazy Pedro’s
Yard and Coop
Down The Hatch
Pieminister

Also, I’d recommend Ghetto Golf

There are some lovely restaurants in Waterloo, just near the beach.

Casa Italia

Baltic Market

We were in Liverpool a couple of weeks ago and had a great time, so hope all goes well for you, OP!

We had a good Italian meal in Villa Romana, Wood Street, and a decent meal (guess the cuisine ) in The Greek Taverna in Bold Street. Neither broke the bank. Huge numbers of restaurants in that area. Liverpool seems well served for restaurants and cafes generally.

Places to go: If you're into museums and art, you can have a lovely time for no cost at all browsing the Walker Art Gallery, the Tate, Museum of Liverpool, Maritime Museum and probably a couple of others I've forgotten. The Anglican and Catholic cathedrals are both interesting to visit and there's no admittance charge to either of them. The Anglican cathedral has a nice tearoom. Just wandering around the Albert Dock area is also interesting. We thought about taking the ferry 'cross the Mersey, but settled for watching it come and go instead.

The river of lights display is on at the moment at the Albert Dock so wrap up warn and wander through there. There are lovely places to eat too, Miller and Carter is a favourite of mine but you certainly won't go hungry in Liverpool.

Lerpewl is really nice - it's the Barrie brothers - Ellis (I think!!) was on Great British Menu and I loved the Marram Grass when they had that.

You need to go to the GPO (general post office) for sure. It's amazing. A big central dining area with lots of little kitchens serving all different types of food. It's BRILLIANT! They do a bottomless brunch for £30 each and you can try whatever you fancy from the huuuuge menu.

Bold street has plenty of really nice independent eateries too.

Mowgli. Each and every time.

Rudy’s for amazing pizza

Lerpwl, Albert Docks. Amazing!

The main easting places are in Bold Street its the one with the Bombed out church at the top, of Lark Lane near sefton park, with have plenty of choice for all pockets
Laparilla in Bold street, big portions, spicy if you ask for it, just great, tasty filling food
Cheap Lunch, its basic sandwiches but tasty and filling

Its down a back street 2 mins walk for the big shops, usually very bust but quick service
3 Richmond Street,
Liverpool,
L1 1EE
We have been to loads of places and Liverpool is still one of the best

I would blow the budget and do the power boat trip around the dock, its fantastic

Southport on the train?

We went recently. GPO is great for breakfast/brunch options. Also recommend Cowshed for dinner, great steaks and good service in a lovely (but not too pretentious) setting.

Italian Club Fish, Bold St
The Quarter, near Anglican Cathedral
Lunya, Hanover Street
Bacaro, Castle Street

If the weather is sunny, take the ferry trip, lovely!

Thank you all so much. Some great ideas and I want to try them all!

Must add New Brighton, nice beach and sea front you cab get a Bus / ferry of through the tunnel.
Might go my self today its a nice walk along the sea front and a great view of the Liverpool water front
It has a traditional Cafe that serves Egg and Chips!
Its cheap too

Breakfast:brunch at Leaf on Bold street. It is genuinely gorgeous and always busy. A testament to how great it is

Cowshed is lovely for steak, book if you want to go because it's relatively small

Mowgli is outstanding but you can now visit one in lots of the bigger cities, so not "unique to Liverpool" if that's what you wanted

Cristakis is a Greek place and is fab. They have entertainment on at weekends too

My number one choice would be Baltic Market. So many different choices that everyone can have a bit of what the fancy. Always brilliant fun and loads of good bars (and ghetto golf) around it too. Don't be put off by the queue, it goes down fast!

Forgot about the Baltic not cheap but great place to see

We spend a lot of time in LP and our family are all foodies haven all traveled and eaten in many fab places around the world …. we all love this place

I live here and by far the best restaurants are Etsu, il forno and roski (roski is super expensive). I’ve also got a soft spot for 60 hope street.

All the other recommendations on this thread are very nice but average. Casa Italia is the oldest restaurant but it’s honestly shit. Lunya is very good but the service is appalling.

ETSU is probably the most reasonably priced out of my recommendations and my all round favourite. Proper sushi and Japanese food 🤩

Leaf on bold street is crap. It’s all hummus and hipsters

Don’t go to ghetto golf 😅
