Top Best Italian Restaurants in Little Town

"Cobbled streets and Georgian Townhouse splendour, breakfast alfresco and with views over the cathedral. If you’re not already sold on The Quarter, then perhaps it’s food will convince you. An Italian inspired independent, we’re talking freshly baked pastries, smoothie bowls, freshly brewed coffee and the usuals, pancakes, poached eggs and peanut butter on toast."

"Family-run deli-restaurant The Quarter offers breakfast, lunch and dinner and they even do home deliveries. So there’s really no excuse for not trying out this Italian restaurant. You’ll almost certainly be able to smell the delicious food from The Quarter before you see it as they also offer a range of fresh homemade bread and pastries to buy."

"Whilst being renowned for its food, the venue is understated for its romance. The Quarter brings the best of Europe together; the road looks like something out of Amsterdam, the decor is reminiscent of Paris and the food is Italian inspired. It doesn’t get much more continental than that."

"At Gusto, the motto is 'Con Amici', which means 'eating with friends' – so you can bet they are one of the best family friendly restaurants in Liverpool. They're a cute little Italian restaurant sitting in the Albert Dock and overlooking the Tate Gallery, with a menu packed with pasta, pizza and many other Italian favourites perfect for fussy eaters and budding-connoisseurs alike."

"From homemade artichoke tortellini and baked aubergine Milanese to Mediterranean pizza topped with vegetables and drizzled with olive oil, Gusto has been busy curating a menu that truly shows off Italian cuisine in all its glory. What more could you ask for from a vegetarian restaurant in Liverpool?"

"For authentic Italian cuisine, Gusto Albert Dock is available on Deliveroo, serving up fresh pasta, succulent burgers and 24-hour sourdough pizzas inspired by trips to Naples; the perfect comfort food. View this post on Instagram. Date night doesn't have to be cancelled."

"The stylish curved steel structure of Salford Quays was completed in 2000, following on from plans drafted in 1988 to regenerate the derelict Manchester docks area. The centre is now a cultural hub of theatre and gallery space, with a few restaurants…"

"Rudy’s is so good, it’s always a pleasant surprise when you get the bill and remember just how budget-friendly it really is. Pizza prices range from £6.30 – £10.50 (the more expensive options being the meatier ones!), and each pizza is bigger than the huge plate its served on. The value for money is incredible, particularly since it’s officially the best pizza in the UK, and the atmosphere is perfect for a catch-up with mates."

"No best-of restaurant list is complete without pizza, and luckily Manchester is well-known for its popular pizzeria Rudy's Pizza. Known for its "proper" Neapolitan pizza, Rudy's a casual spot that's ideal for families and groups but is also cool enough for couples and pairs of friends. There are several locations throughout Manchester, and you won't go wrong at any of them."

"Rudy’s is another great pit stop for vegans, with their specials board often providing a different dairy-free option every week. Rudy’s Neapolitan pizza dough is 100% vegan, and alongside their stunning marinara, any pizza on the menu can be asked for without cheese. No wonder they’re labelled the best pizzas in town."

"Cicchetti, Fumo and San Carlo itself are all wonderful choices for a special romantic evening. Cicchetti has a lovely marble bar that you can sit at whilst you nibble on small plates, whilst Fumo’s beautiful art deco interior is the perfect setting for a special date. And for lovers of traditional Italian food, you can’t go wrong at San Carlo."

"This was really well priced and had the best flavour and presentation. They even gave me more than one scoop. The restaurant uses traditional techniques to make their sorbet and it works for them."

"Pizza Express bosses have confirmed plans to reopen the chain on April 12. 118 of the chain’s restaurants will open in England next month as the country continues to ease its lockdown restrictions, including two in Merseyside. The two restaurants reopening in Merseyside are Liverpool ONE and Kings Waterfront."

"Here comes a real chill place to visit which is the Chill Factore, an indoor snow centre. If you are someone who always wanted to play with snow, then this is your place to be. You have snowy slopes for your skiing and snowboarding experience with the guidance of the instructors."

"Pass through a new florist that has appeared on Oldham Street and you'll find yourself inside Lost Cat. This two-storey bar was once home to Eat New York, who will still man the kitchens, but now Lyndon Higginson (of Crazy Pedro's and Junkyard Golf fame) is at the helm. It's a 'modern day social club serving serious beers and stupid cocktails', apparently, and in the not-too-distant future will also be home to an outside cinema."
