The best vegan restaurants to try out in Liverpool
"Indian street food and craft beer bar Bundobust is a shining gem amongst the restaurant chains of Piccadilly Gardens. Venture down its wooden stairway and you’ll be met with a sprawling food hall, complete with casual canteen-style benches and a glorious glass skylight. Don’t expect a typical Indian menu though."
"You can eat for well under a tenner at Indian kitchen Bundobust. Located in the Northern Quarter, the restaurant is a veggie haven of spicy cooking; we recommend the masala dosa, a warming combination of soup and mini pancakes."
"The Ivy's terrace made headlines for all the wrong reasons when a fire broke out there just a few months after it opened. It hasn't happened again since though, so you're all good. This bougie London brand is still going strong, despite the pandemic, and its views of the ever-changing skyline are worth a visit even if you can take or leave the food (see Gordo on scathing form when he reviewed The Ivy when it first opened in Manchester)"
"For those who like their brunches with a touch of glamour and a sprinkle of special, Ivy in Spinngingfields should be top of your list. Head to the first floor brasserie which serves British dishes from 11am every weekend, encompassing all the classics, from smoked salmon through to asparagus and hollondaise."
"A firm favourite amongst Manchester's celebs, The Ivy Spinningfields boasts some of the city's most swoon-worthy interiors. For the perfect alfresco brunch?. Head through the main restaurant to the chic rooftop garden where you can tuck into British dishes under a the sun."
"Down the Hatch opened in 2018, serving vegetarian and vegan junk food, ranging from deep fried veggies to cauliflower five ways. The restaurant has quickly gained a reputation for itself, serving dishes such as 'Just Beet It', which includes a falafel style patty, beetroot hummus, roasted red peppers, rocket, tomato and balsamic dressing. 62 Duke St, Liverpool, England"
"Ok, it may be controversial but we’re calling it; Down The Hatch is serving up the best Vegan food in Liverpool at the moment. Depending on your tastes, it may not be for you but Down The Hatch are vegan junk food masters. It’s fair to say that DTH started the vegan junk food trend in Liverpool and others have successfully followed suit."
"Time Out says: “Down the Hatch does veggie junk with a vengeance – you’re heading for a very happy seitan, tofu and halloumi food coma here.". Basement, 62 Duke St, Liverpool L1 5AA"
"Set on the beautiful cobbled streets of Faulkner Street in Liverpool’s quaint Georgian Quarter, this stylish eatery features perfect executions of Bruncher favourites including one of the finest veggie breakfasts in the city. If the weather is permitting, try and get an outdoor seat and enjoy fantastic views of the nearby Anglican Cathedral."
"The Toxteth Riviera is always a gorgeous place to be, any time of the year, and now thanks to The Quarter on Falkner Street you can stay warm while you make the most of it. Those outside tables are some of the most sought-after in the city, so be lucky and grab one and heaters mean you’ll be toasty while you eat and drink."
"Book your table for The Quarter and enjoy lunch on the cobbled streets of the beautiful Georgian Quarter. Their beautiful menu is perfect for breakfast, lunch, dinner or just a drink. View this post on Instagram"

"Just across the street from Kuckoo you’ll find Havana, a cosy Latino bar and restaurant which serves you delectable drinks to the tune of infectious Latino beats. With music from live DJ’s later in the evening there’s an unmistakable buzz in the air in that’ll have you tapping your feet and nodding your head without even realising. This little gem made it to the best bars in Chester list because you can grab yourself a mojito and some tasty tapas if you’re feeling hungry."
"Fiesta Havana is a nightclub and late bar hybrid, giving you the best of both worlds under one low, rounded roof. Head down the stairs into the tunnel-like venue with vaulted brick ceilings and a Latin-style vibe. By day Havana Chester serves food, but what makes this one of the best clubs in Chester is the extensive cocktail menu and dancefloor hidden inside."
