Top Best Italian Restaurants in Runcorn

"Found in the beautiful Georgian Quarter of Liverpool on Falkner Street, The Quarter is an Italian inspired, independent restaurant. It serves everything from breakfast to delicious cakes and everything in between. Or if you’d like to treat your date to a romantic picnic, take them shopping in the deli to pick out their favourite sandwich and sweet treat."

"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."

"The Quarter was a trailblazer for scouse cafe culture and whether you’re getting together for brunch, lunch, or one of their famous pizzas, the pretty pavement tables are now even more sought after since the addition of some toasty heaters. Address: 7 Falkner St, Liverpool L8 7PU"

"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."

"Rudy’s is an institution here in Manchester, with two regularly busy sites throwing authentic Neapolitan pizza like there’s no tomorrow. While they predominantly only serve pizza, the food is so good, there really isn’t much need for anything else. In fact, they’ve mastered the art so well, they’ve been named one of the top ten pizzerias in the whole world."
