10 Best Breweries in Orrell

"Love Lane Brewery Bar & Kitchen could be one of our favourite venues in the city. You can explore the working brewery on a special tour, tuck into some delicious food from the kitchen or drinks some or book yourself a place on their special Rooted Real Gin Yoga class which relaunches this month. Find out more and book here."

"Home to the Ginsmiths of Liverpool, head down to Love Lane Brewery in the Baltic Triangle to sample some of the finest gin around. Choose from a Dry Gin, Merchant Navy Gin, Marshmallow Gin or a range of cocktails in the huge venue. They also do distillery tours so you can see how the gin gets made in house!"

"If you can’t get enough of their funky-designed cans, then you’re in luck as Black Lodge Brewery has taken their beers online to help make lockdown that little bit more bearable. Better yet the people of Liverpool and Wirral can get free alcohol delivery. The brewery delivers from Tuesday to Friday, depending on your postcode, plus they do national delivery too so you can send some beers to a mate or family member."

"You cant give up now your just getting to the best bits of our Liverpool real ale trail at Black Lodge Brewery. This is a one of a kind beer lovers find, tucked into one of the many warehouses that are now being transformed into Liverpool’s most popular social spaces. When you arrive you are confronted by a wall of gleaming white tile devoid of marketing ploys, brands and colour."

"Sarah Hyde is an Institute of Beer & Distilling accredited Beer Sommelier and has just launched a series of beer tours in Liverpool under the UK Brewery Tours umbrella. The Microbrewery Experience Tour takes in some of the best venues within the Baltic Triangle. You’ll get to meet the brewers, sample beers and come face-to-face with the brewery equipment."

"I know this list is based around what and where to eat in Liverpool, but I thought I’d mention this just because of how popular it is. Pretty much everywhere you go these days you can find somewhere selling craft beer, and Liverpool’s not really any different. We’ve got lots of places for a good drink, but the Cains Brewery seems to be the favorite of just about everyone in Liverpool at the minute."

"It's one of the most up-and-coming areas in the city and it's easy to see why when you wander around. There is a whole host of new bars, pubs and venues open across the village which was once derelict for many years. On a hot day, all the venues put out seating outside, including the Peaky Blinders bar and the Baltic Market."

"Another must-visit in the Cains Brewery Village, this alehouse is the very definition of a hidden gem. The Brewery Tap was bought by Mikhail Hotel, who wanted ‘in’ on the bright future of the happening brewery village. It’s the perfect place to head for a hoppy pale ale."

"Excellent park for a decent length walk, plenty of wildlife along the way. There are many birds and a couple of foxes around dusk. There is also plenty of space and singing birds."

"Run by Dave Abe and his Japanese father, this hidden-away restaurant is one of Liverpool’s best kept foodie secrets. Set up by the pair when they noticed the lack of quality Japanese food in the North-West of England, Etsu hired the very best specialty chefs they could find and set about introducing Scousers to high-quality, authentic Japanese dishes. With over 70 years of restaurant experience between the staff, relax in Etsu’s cosy atmosphere and enjoy some jaw-dropping Japanese food, including traditional bento boxes for lunch, delicious curries such as Tonkatsu and Torikatsu, Udon soup noodle bowls and much, much more."

"Etsu is an authentic Japanese restaurant that serves the best tasting sushi menu and Japanese dishes in the whole of Liverpool. Always made fresh upon order, you can choose from the selection of sushi, soup, salads, pickles, appetisers, bento, donburi and Japanese curry that they have. Made from the freshest and finest ingredients of fish, seafood, meat and vegetables, you will certainly find the best one that will tempt your palate and provide you with a filling meal that is put together to perfection for your utmost delight."

"Time Out says Etsu is not the biggest of restaurants, but this is what makes it a “brilliant place for the type of meal where you actually want to be able to hear your dining partner.”. 25 The Strand, Liverpool L2 0XJ"
