"Liverpool Everyman Theatre, 5-9 Hope Street, Liverpool, Merseyside, L1 9BH - Visit now. The Everyman reopened in March 2014 after extensive renovation to its stage, restaurant and backstage areas; the newly opened version is sustainable, accessible and really rather swish. Inclusiveness runs through the new design – its frontage, dominated by a new “portrait wall”, shows 105 different Liverpool residents, cut into a metal facade."

"Founded in 1964, the Everyman Theatre has been bringing groundbreaking talent to Hope Street for over half a decade. The stage for early performances from Julie Walters, Bill Nighy and Bernard Hill, this venue is steeped in history – the building itself won the 2014 RIBA Stirling Prize for architecture. Showing a range of plays from classic Shakespeare to brand new material, a show at the Everyman is not to be missed."

"The Bluecoat is a true gem in Liverpool's city centre, but many shoppers are less aware of the shops inside.

She said: "We are very much aimed at local people in Liverpool."

You’ve got your microbreweries and then you’ve got a renovated rubber factory transformed into an 18,000 hectolitre brewery capable of producing more than three million pints. The latter goes by the name of Love Lane Brewery and houses a family of beers and gins under one roof, designed to keep the city’s rich brewing heritage alive."

Pick from perfectly prepared pork, the best cuts of beef or half a chicken and enjoy the succulent meats with a healthy helping of the crispiest roast potatoes, tonnes of proper gravy, carrot and swede mash."

"If you're more of a beer drinker, BrewChimp on Church Road is the place for you. Alongside venues in Stretford and Flixton, BrewChimp's Urmston haunt is the official home of the local craft beer and wine bar. Promising to ‘do things differently’, the cosy bar is full of quirks (including an old-fashioned shop bell) that’ll make you want to stay for more than just the one drink."

"Located next to the canal off Castle Street, Dukes 92 is the perfect place to go for outdoor dining. Not only is the view charming and relaxing, but the food isn’t half bad either. And if you don’t manage to wrangle any friends for dinner, you are free to bring your dog to sit with you on the terrace!"

"Found next to Rochdale Canal, Dukes 92 is a stunning Manchester restaurant with knockout views and tasty plates. Grab a table inside, out on their riverside terrace or on their balcony and tuck into a range of small plates, sandwiches, steaks and salads by the water."

"If you are looking for authentic Chinese cuisine with the full banquet experience then this is the place for you.

Best thing is they deliver to your door as well!"
