Top 10 budget restaurants, bars and cafes in Liverpool
"Fittingly on Maryland Street, just off Baltimore, the Free State Kitchen is Liverpool's primary exponent of US "dude food": hotdogs, Reuben sandwiches, buffalo wings, chilli fries and, of course, burgers. Its cheeseburger is a vastly improved doppelganger for the McDonald's classic, right down to the exceptionally light, soft but durable bun and (what tastes like a Kraft) cheese slice on top. Of course, the patty is much tastier than anything you will find on the high street: loosely packed, juicy, precisely chargrilled, it persuasively asserts its beefy flavour over the ketchup, mild mustard and onion."
