All the reasons why it's brilliant to be a vegetarian in Liverpool
"Liverpool’s truest execution of Guy Beringer’s Plea is served at Moose Coffee – a decadent eatery inspired by American breakfast culture. Championing classics like pancakes, waffles and mouth-watering French toast stacks, this extensive menu is sure to satisfy every Bruncher’s need. Moose Coffee’s flagship location is on Dale Street, but it wouldn’t be the most surprising thing in the world if you are greeted at this very popular spot with a wait for a table."
"Enjoy tasty American and Canadian style breakfasts, with treats such as homemade salted caramel pancakes and all coffee Fairtrade, definitely one to visit to start that working day. Indulge in breakfasts and brunches inspired by the American breakfast culture. Crafted, tweaked & pored over, Moose provides the perfect American Diner influenced menu making you feel like you’ve pulled up a seat in New York City!"
"The delicious Moose Coffee was founded in 2006, located on Dale Street, their aim is to provide American Canadian influenced breakfasts for all. The first noticeable thing about this delicious eatery is the bustling atmosphere, combined with cool, dark wooden interiors. https://www.instagram.com/p/B_txAJwn2As/"
"Bold Street Coffee, 89 Bold Street, Liverpool, Merseyside, L1 4HF - Visit now. An independent coffee house that’s been going strong (in one form or another) since the late 1990s; the centrally located Bold Street Coffee is an all-time local favourite serving some of the best coffee in the city."
"It doesn't get much better than taking an hour out to relax with a cup of coffee and Bold Street Coffee is the place to head. You can even buy their special coffee blends to take away with you. View this post on Instagram"
"With coffee so good, you could forgive Bold Street Coffee for seeing food as an afterthought. But that just isn’t the case. From incredible salads to pimped porridges, there’s something for everyone."
"From the towering cakes to the boozy milkshakes, Home Sweet Home is a must for anyone with a sweet tooth. The American-inspired brunch restaurant will wipe away any morning blues with its titan breakfasts; opt for pancake stacks with a breakfast cocktail thrown in for good measure."
"Since opening in 2013 The Bagelry has helped fill a bagel shaped hole in the city. The Chinatown store is dedicated to hand crafted boiled and baked bagels, offering American and Jewish varieties, alongside their own gourmet and seasoned flavoured bagels. There’s black forest bagels, cinnamon raisin bagels, blueberry bagels, salted jalapeño bagels and beetroot bagels to name but a few."
"There’s regularly a queue stretching down the street for good reason, so make sure you arrive early on weekends as they run out of bagels fast!. With plain bagels costing £1, it’s easy to take a box of freshly baked bread away and build a bagel at home. Alternatively, The Bagelry offers a delicious range of fillings in the bagel of your choice."
"It’s the perfect place to head for your favourite round shaped baked good. With different flavours made fresh everyday, you can eat in or take away for your afternoon snack. They also make rainbow bagels for the weekends… we’ll see you there."
"An organic cafe just on the outskirts of town and accessible from the northern docks, Tranquil Evolution serve a range of coffees, teas, juices, smoothies and hearty food. The interior is clean, bright & modern with wooden tables and they used to have some gorgeous spinny chairs in the window that I think have been removed for covid purposes."
"Address: Travelodge Liverpool Stonedale Park, Unit 3, Stonedale retail park, E Lancashire Rd, Croxteth, Liverpool L11 9DH. Phone number: 0151 546 9490. We’re straying a bit from the other spa days in Liverpool so far with this next recommendation because Mini Madams offers exclusive children’s pamper parties."
"I swear that the good people of Manchester were waiting for me to leave… I’d been visiting for the inaugural Cup North back in 2014 and no sooner had I left, than it seemed a slew of new coffee shops opened, led by Federal Café & Bar, which, by the way, does what it says on the tin. By day, it’s a café, while by night, it morphs into a bar, although, as I discovered, the staff will happily serve you coffee long into the night (and, I suspect, alcohol during the day). The coffee side of the equation is handled by Kiwi transplants, Ozone, supplying the Hodson blend and decaf on espresso, with a couple of single-origins on pour-over, impressive when you consider the (lack of) available space."
"Situated just along from the Arndale, this Northern Quarter cafe is perfect for a healthy shopping break. It features all of our favourite kinds of healthy food, such as banana bread (well, it does contain fruit), smashed avocado and French toast. It’s also ranked 11/1,752 restaurants in Manchester on TripAdvisor, so we really think we’re onto a winner with this one!"
"City-centre favourite Federal offers an all-day brunch until 6pm, as well as a range of sandwiches, bagels and amazing coffee. We recommend The Turkish Eggs. View this post on Instagram"
"If you like to be the first in line to try something new, head to Bill’s in Spinningfields. Their brand-new pancake menu will be available between 21st Feb – 1st March with a strong mix of vegan, non-vegan, sweet and savoury treats to gorge on. Location: Bill’s, Hardman Square, Manchester, M3 3EB."
"Open from 7am, the brunch menu at Bill's is suitable for breakfast meetings and drawn-out boozy sessions alike. With a menu that includes all the classics (from fluffy pancakes to perfectly poached eggs), a morning spent here is a guaranteed solid choice."
"Giraffe is on the first floor in The Orient and is close to the escalators to the ground floor with plenty of room for buggies. The city centre also has a branch, in Spinningfields."
"If it’s ice cream that’s tickling your taste-buds, climb the staircase in Afflecks to the first floor to discover the most eclectic selection of flavours imaginable. Chances are that you’ve seen Ginger’s ice cream van at one of the city’s many events, festivals or markets, but for an ice-cream hit whenever you fancy, their base in Afflecks is a dessert lover’s heaven. With flavours including baked apple sorbet, black treacle and parkin, and the iconic Chorlton crack, you’re not going to find bland vanilla here."
"You’ve probably seen the chic and trendy “ice cream van for the grown-ups. This dessert wagon is mainly to be found after dark, when the children are safe in bed, roaming the streets of south Manchester.”. And now luckily for us they have a permanent residence in the Northern Quarter, on the first floor Afflecks Palace."
"Products sourced from local producers, Ginger’s is on the first floor of Afflecks which means it’s already cool – and that’s before trying the ice cream. Like Gino’s, they have loads of stuff to suit your ice cream needs including dairy-free ice cream. Be sure to try the Chorlton Crack."
"A post shared by Mary G (@mairahgorman) on Jul 5, 2019 at 10:49am PDT. Australasia is a chic modern restaurant that offers guests a fusion of traditional Australian and Asian cuisines. After descending the restaurant’s distinctive glass pyramid, guests are transported into an elegant dining space meant to resemble the beaches of the Pacific Rim."
"Modern Australian food with Indonesian and Japanese influences, served in a glamorous subterranean venue in Spinningfields. Pacific Rim flavours are underpinned by classic European cooking techniques in a menu that spans sushi and sashimi to robata grilled meat and fish. Don’t miss the signature black cod."
"Manchester Opera House is the Palace Theatre’s little sister. It’s located on Quay Street, near Spinningfields. It is smaller than the Palace theatre however, there are still some amazing productions to see here."
"The building of the Dancehouse Theatre has had a fascinating history full of transformation, morphing from meeting halls to a multi-screen cinema complex. In the 1990s it was restored to its former Art Deco splendour and was reopened as The Dancehouse Theatre, home to the Northern Ballet School. While the venue presents a broad range of performances including comedy, music and drama, dance lies at the heart of this North West icon."
