"Home Sweet Home is an inevitable address for brunch-lovers in the Northern Quarter. If you are looking for some good comfort food, you are sure to find it here. We recommend the Eggs Cali."

"We love a good technical challenge on GBBO, and whose mind was blown when you saw how bagels were made!. Boiling bread before baking it seems ludacris but the result of a well-baked bagel is heaven. At Bagelry the team bring a wide variety of the ring-shaped delights to diners prepared in the traditional Jewish style, Americanised versions as well as their own gastronomic concoctions."

"Before the arrival of The Bagelry we just felt like there was something missing in Liverpool. We can’t really explain it, there was just a certain hollow to us as we navigated our way through the labyrinth of the city. A bagel-shaped hole two best friends fulfilled a couple years ago."

"What: Described by its founders as “a big fat love letter to Reykjavik – its people, and their love for the coffee bean”, this Scandinavian coffee house and brunch kitchen provides not one, but three welcoming spaces in which to meet, work and enjoy great coffee and food. its Northern Quarter location is as Scandi as you like, with big, communal wooden tables, exposed brickwork and arty prints on the walls. One of Takk’s major draws is its artisan coffee, which is a single origin coffee from Finca Miravalle in El Salvador (though it does feature guest espresso from some of the best roasters in Europe and further afield too)."

"Takk is a Scandinavian coffee shop very famous for the Nordic style espresso. This is one of the best options among Manchester cafés northern quarter. The ambience reflects the exact Scandinavian theme, where lightning and interior are correctly chosen to make you feel cosy."

"Takk is a simple room in the Northern Quarter that’s been pushing the Manchester coffee scene forward for years. Stripped backbenches and a room full of co-workers sipping drinks from their big wholesome mugs. Great simple breakfast options too."

"An elaborate vine leaf design, reminiscent of Grimm’s fairy tale illustrations, leads the way up a stairwell to a narrow double doorway in the same red-violet hue that gives access to the café – a large attic filled with wooden tables and all the ambiance of a monastery refectory. The barrier between stranger and friend is often lost here, over delicious and affordable food."

"Liverpool’s Premier Vegetarian and Vegan Restaurant, situated in the city centre at 16-18 Newington, off Bold St and Renshaw Street. Vegetarian and vegan food in airy loft with exposed girders, mezzanine floor and gallery space. New revamped menu coming soon and we cannot wait to sample it!"

"Back before vegan food was trendy, the Egg was one of the only herbivorous hot spots in Liverpool. Based just off Bold Street, this rustic cafe is tucked away behind a mysterious purple door. The café itself is quite a large loft space situated over two levels."

"Tipple opened last year, and can be found on Station Road in Ainsdale village. It is a friendly and inviting wine bar, which serves a range of fine wines, ales and lagers, spirits, cocktails, specialty coffees and more. The owners have stripped out the bar to find the original timber and ornate windows which fit in with the rustic, traditional theme they are hoping to create."

"Decadent interiors are matched with an exotic menu drawing from all corners of the globe at Grand Pacific. From pea and wasabi houmous to soy and treacle cured salmon, this isn't your average Japanese meal; it's a modern take on East Asian flavours."

"Stylish Cocktail Bar & Asia Infused Restaurant on the edge of Spinningfields, nice high end pre drink spot. Address: 50 Spring Gardens, Manchester M2 1EN. Opening times: 11am-3am"

"The municipal museum was founded in 1848 and moved into its purpose-built Neoclassical home in 1857. This is one of the UK’s oldest town museums and the building has kept its original character.
