Churches and Cathedrals in Abbey Hey

"The Mother Church of Chester Bishopric and a Church of England Minister, the Chester Cathedral was built in honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary and Christ. One of the most popular attractions in the city, the Chester Cathedral has something for everyone that includes, service, a LEGO display, a guided tour and witnessing the birds of prey. As an operational church, the Cathedral conducts over 20 services each week with multiple choirs, organ recitals and sermons."

"St Luke’s Church, or the Bombed Out Church to the locals, sits proudly at the top of Bold Street and is a great spot for a photograph, especially if you get to head inside. Known as the Bombed Out Church because it no longer has a roof, it makes for an interesting photo for the collection. View this post on Instagram"

"St Luke’s which is popularly known as the bombed-out church was destroyed during World War II. It has no ceiling and plants are growing inside. You and your loved one can find tranquility in the city center there. It also serves as a memorial to the people who lost their lives during the world war."

"A modest Anglican parish church, originally built in 1832, St. Luke’s was a victim of the Liverpool Blitz in 1941 and now stands as a roofless shell, a monument to those who were lost during the war."

"Warrington’s parish church is an atmospheric sandstone building with a spire 86 metres high. This is the eighth highest spire in the country, and the fifth highest among parish churches. Most of St Elphin’s dates from a restoration that took place in the 1860s, but there are fragments of earlier buildings."

"This little North West city is packed full of unique buildings, and Church bar is one that really stands out from the crowd. As the name suggests this bar is housed in a converted chapel and still has original features like a church organ and stained-glass windows. The front of the bar provides a long outdoor space that is one of the best beer gardens in Chester."

"The Church is housed within a beautifully converted former church and retains much of its original charm. The venue features a charming Gallery Restaurant, a breezy terrace and bellini bar."

"At the top, look inside St Michael’s Church, which commands the Market Place and can be seen across the town. Although the church was almost completely rebuilt at the start of the 20th century it is highly regarded for its two historic chapels. Here you’ll encounter what is considered to be Cheshire’s richest collection of alabaster effigies, produced in the 16th and 17th centuries for the Legh and Savage families."

"The sister restaurant to The Italian Club is barely 5 minutes walk up the road from the original and serves equally delectable dishes with the same warmth and friendliness as its parent venue. But this is where you head if you’re craving sensational seafood – from fresh oysters and Scottish langoustines to mussel pots filled with garlicky sauce and classic seaside Italian risottos, all your favourite fishy delights are here. For a treat, try the Hot Seafood Sharing Platter which comes with a whole lobster."

"This cosy restaurant is a slightly higher priced offering but you know you get the quality. This reviewer tried the half lobster with Spaghetti Alla Chitarra for a delightful dish reminiscent of the Azzuro region of Italy. View the menu at ItalianClub.com"

"Located in the Deansgate area of Manchester inside a beautiful Victorian courthouse building, Hawksmoor Steak and Seafood restaurant is not to be overlooked if steak is your food of choice. A wide range of steak cuts are on offer here, and you'll want to bring your appetite - steaks don’t generally come any smaller than 500g. Although Hawksmoor can be a fine dining experience, it doesn’t have to break the bank, and offers a steak lunch special for under £16."

"Hawksmoor opened in early 2015, but the steakhouse has style and character that suggests it’s been there for years. The interior is a chorus of black leather, deep mahogany and royal green – a sumptuous combo that encourages couples to settle in for the night and order another bottle of wine. The menu, like the décor, is classic and refined."

"Only complaint is that I have to drive 20mins each way and the pizza gets cold by the time I get home. 14/04/2021: Without doubt the best Pizza for miles around..... Absolutely fantastic....."

"Villa Romana – Italian Restaurant Liverpool provides a safe, secure and welcoming atmosphere with the delightful, cosy and comfortable ambience that they deliver to all their customers. Topping the wonderful experience is the different homecooked food that they serve that are cooked in the traditional Italian way. Sourcing the best ingredients from their expert Italian vendors, they guarantee a rich culmination of taste that is truly wonderful and exquisite."

"Find Villa Romana in the heart of the city for traditional home cooked Italian food. Their freshly made pasta comes in all shapes and sizes with a great wine menu to wash it all down with. It’s a great place to head for an evening meal out."

"Where: Liverpool Street, on an unlikely crossroads in Salford. Best Dish: Pig’s trotters with chilli, onion, spring onion and sesame. This restaurant of many names (Mr Fresh? Peking Duck?) offers a no holds barred Chinese menu with a Beijing accent, filled with gizzards, feet, tongue, lungs, kidneys, trotters and stewed chicken with mushrooms."

"Chinese is one of those foods that you never stop craving – so it’s pretty handy for us Salford students that the Peking Duck is only a 5 minute drive (or 15 minute walk) from the main campus. With unbeatable prices, the Peking Duck will satisfy for sure. My mouth is watering just thinking about it!"
