10 Best Breweries in Abbey Hey

"Home to the Ginsmiths of Liverpool, head down to Love Lane Brewery in the Baltic Triangle to sample some of the finest gin around. Choose from a Dry Gin, Merchant Navy Gin, Marshmallow Gin or a range of cocktails in the huge venue. They also do distillery tours so you can see how the gin gets made in house!"

"If you can’t get enough of their funky-designed cans, then you’re in luck as Black Lodge Brewery has taken their beers online to help make lockdown that little bit more bearable. Better yet the people of Liverpool and Wirral can get free alcohol delivery. The brewery delivers from Tuesday to Friday, depending on your postcode, plus they do national delivery too so you can send some beers to a mate or family member."

"Although these guys have been knocking about since 2015, they are but a matter of days into celebrating the launch of their brand new brewery and tap room. Black Lodge is a small batch brewery with experimentation and beer-based alchemy at its heart. Showcasing an ever-changing line up of both local and international brews, this is the place to come if you want to dabble in something a little bit different."

"I know this list is based around what and where to eat in Liverpool, but I thought I’d mention this just because of how popular it is. Pretty much everywhere you go these days you can find somewhere selling craft beer, and Liverpool’s not really any different. We’ve got lots of places for a good drink, but the Cains Brewery seems to be the favorite of just about everyone in Liverpool at the minute."

"It's one of the most up-and-coming areas in the city and it's easy to see why when you wander around. There is a whole host of new bars, pubs and venues open across the village which was once derelict for many years. On a hot day, all the venues put out seating outside, including the Peaky Blinders bar and the Baltic Market."

"Another must-visit in the Cains Brewery Village, this alehouse is the very definition of a hidden gem. The Brewery Tap was bought by Mikhail Hotel, who wanted ‘in’ on the bright future of the happening brewery village. It’s the perfect place to head for a hoppy pale ale."

"OKitchen Bar & Restaurant is situated in Didsbury Village in South Manchester, providing Korean and Japanese cuisine alongside a cocktail bar that offers a wide variety of drinks for brunch and dinner. They are open from Monday through Sunday."

"This American style dive bar and restaurant is discretely hidden in part of Liverpool’s university district, so discrete you might blink and miss it. Once inside you may think you have entered the wrong place but do not let the dark decor and neon lights put you off, after all it is a death row themed restaurant. Both the decor and the menu establish the essence of death row, making you feel as though you are choosing your last meal from the menu to die for (literally)."

"A post shared by Death Row Diner (@deathrowdiner) on Apr 6, 2019 at 9:17am PDT. An American diner hidden away on Liverpool’s bohemian Hope Street, Death Row Diner offers arguably the best burgers in the city. It may have a controversial name, but this basement restaurant is the perfect place for a cheat night treat."

"Lupo Caffè Italiano, located at the Boat Shed, Exchange Quay, serves award-winning Italian coffee. Italian-flavours continue to run through its daily-changing menu which has previous included crostatina with nutella, stuffed peppers and pistachio, and white chocolate muffins. The cafe also makes Italian birthday cakes with custom designs."

"Five-star hotel The Lowry underwent a swanky new makeover in late 2019, including a new look for the two-AA-rosette restaurant and bar. Their luxurious dining & drinking terrace is the perfect place to relax out of reach of the bustle of the city centre. With a sunny view of the River Irwell and hospitality to beat, this is a luxury to be experienced in Manchester."

"Situated in The Lowry Hotel on the Manchester/ Salford border, this fine dining breakfast menu is unbeatable. The restaurant itself is glass-walled and overlooks the Santiago Calatrava’s Trinity Bridge. The decor includes purple leather chairs, semi-circular banquettes, Fornasetti plates and mirrors."

"Set in the iconic Midland Hotel, the cosy booths, stylish décor and relaxed atmosphere of The French by Simon Rogan makes for an opulent date night. Worthy of any special occasion, quality food is at the heart of this operation with meticulously crafted tasting menus. The French’s absent Michelin star is well documented, but the infamous missing star isn’t all bad - diners can experience Michelin standard food without the waiting lists and price tag."

"Head to The Midland Hotel to discover Adam Reid at The French, an award-winning upscale restaurant serving modern cuisine by chef Adam Reid. The restaurant uses only seasonal produce, and the menu offers a choice of four, six, or nine courses, all of which showcase classic British food with a contemporary twist. This is where you want to go for a special occasion or a fancy night out, and it's essential to book in advance."
