Best Nightlife in St Helens

"In February 2020 BC (before Covid) we got all excited with a visit to their about-to-open second Manchester branch on Oxford Road but it remains closed as we pine for a cold beer and a hot bhaji on a long table more than ever. We’ll have to make do with Deliveroo for now. It’s all veggie, as existing fans will know, but vegans have plenty to love from the iconic vada pav to the famous broccoli, kale and onion bhajis."

"This laid-back Piccadilly street food favourite has canteen and booth-style seating, and bespoke artwork nodding to Manchester’s industrial heritage. The informal menu is entirely vegetarian: think spiced okra fries, or bundo chaat, a delightful mixture of crunchy samosa pastry, chickpeas, tamarind chutney and turmeric noodles. An excellent beer list showcases local breweries."

"With acclaim from national reviewers, Bundobust's street food and craft beer philosophy may seem simple, but it's hella tasty. The Manchester restaurant is a must for sharing vegan food; though don't end up squabbling over the bhel puri - a mix of pastry, peas and tamarind chutney."

"The Ivy has long-reigned as one of the most beautiful restaurants not only in Manchester but across the UK. Offering up three floors in the Manchester venue – each with a completely different experience – the restaurant is unbeatable if you’re after a lively date night, with a fantastic atmosphere flowing from floor to floor. On the ground floor, you’ll find a stunning, floral brasserie, the second – a decadent, oriental-inspired Asian restaurant, and on the rooftop – a bright, summery floral terrace also serving the varied brasserie menu."

"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."

"One of the largest restaurants to open in the UK in 2018 with 535 covers, The Ivy Spinningfields is set over four floors with a ground floor brasserie, ..." Read our full review"

"What to expect: A vegetarian fast food restaurant in Liverpool – veggie burgers, halloumi, lasagne and more. Now a firm favourite in Liverpool, head to Down the Hatch for big, daring veggie junk food that is sure to cure your hangover!. Far from the days of bland vegetarian options, Down the Hatch serves everything from self proclaimed ‘bun junk’ to dishes that fall under the category ‘home cooked (like ya ma does)’."

"When it comes to meat-free dining in Liverpool, this lot have reached legendary status. Although DTH will be closing its doors in January as we navigate yet another national lockdown, fear not: you can still get your fix delivered to your door. In honour of Veganuary, they’ve added an exclusive meal deal to their Deliveroo platform: any burger and chips, plus a side and drink for £16."

"Located in a basement on Duke Street, Down the Hatch has been crowned Liverpool’s “dirtiest vegan junk food bunker.” Home to some of the best deep-fried food that the city has to offer, Down the Hatch takes home-cooked food and puts a junk food twist on it, that even if you’re not vegetarian, will love."

"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.

"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."

Its upstairs movie projector is fit for football with your mates or even a private date. If you were looking for where to drink craft beer and real ale in Liverpool or maybe just a quirky alternative to a traditional pub experience, this is your place."

"You'll need to have a browse of this menu online before your booking at NYL, because everything sounds so damn good, you could be hours trying to decide what to order. Bottomless bevs include prosecco, Coronas and three different types of G&Ts, while brunch dishes range from Sweet Potato Eggs Benedict, a mouthwatering Fry Up (or Anti-Fry Up for vegans), Crispy Chicken Wings, Cured Gammon and Emmental Cheese Toastie and Breakfast Pizza (tomato sauce, mozzarella, mushroom, chorizo, spinach and egg, or a veggie option with onion and tomato).

"NYL is based on the ground floor of Aloft Liverpool and is famous for its gin offering Book a booth here and raise a glass to 2020!"

"Serving up classic South American dishes, Las Iguanas at Deansgate is a guaranteed fun night out. With a lovely patio for outdoor dining, paired with the flavorful dishes and handcrafted cocktails, it would be hard not to imagine yourself on a warm beach somewhere."

"Walk through the doors of Las Iguanas and find yourself transported to Latin America, full of rich, vibrant colours, quirky features and custom-made wooden mosaic tables made especially. Description | Map | Menu | More details"

"The Egg Café, or as it’s locally known, the Egg is a vegetarian restaurant located just off Bold Street. Vegetarian and Veganism is a growing dietary choice and many are choosing this lifestyle because of the health benefits it offers. The Egg is a restaurant a little different from the rest, nestled along a back street and up a couple of flights of stairs you’ll be welcomed into this loft restaurant which is light, airy and a little bit hippy."

"The Egg Cafe can be found just off Bold Street on Newington Street. Not only is it one of Liverpool’s premier vegetarian and vegan restaurants (they did vegan before it was hipster), it is also in a beautiful airy loft space of an old Victorian warehouse building. It also offers fabulous views of the city centre."

"The Egg Vegetarian Cafe is a premier vegetarian and vegan restaurant in the city. All the menus that they have are plant-based and are sourced locally. They offer a wide array of meals and sides from breakfast, all-day favourites, soup, desserts and many others."

"Although situated just outside of Manchester city centre, on Wilmslow Road, this restaurant definitely deserves a mention on this list. Lotus Vegetarian Kitchen offers so much more choice than your usual vegetarian restaurant. With veggie prawns, beef, and even duck, this restaurant has gone all the way with creating the perfect Asian dishes with bursts of flavour all suitable for all palettes."

"For those seeking vegetarian and vegan options, Lotus Vegetarian Kitchen is the perfect venue. Not only does this restaurant avoid using garlic, onion and leeks, it also caters to any sort of dietary requirements customers might have. The owners are a couple from Hong Kong who want to introduce healthier meal choices to the community."

"Crowned the best vegan restaurant in the UK during the 2019 Vegfest UK Awards, it would be rude of us not to pay Indigo Greens a (virtual) visit this month. A go-to for those seeking plant-based fuel in the Liverpool vicinity, this is vegan food with finesse. From loaded toasts and wholesome chilled breakfasts to grilled plates, nibbles - and a mean Sunday roast."

"About: Patisserie Valerie in Deansgate is a haven of self-indulgence. This luxurious, continental-style patisserie and café is famed for delicious handmade cakes and pastries. Under the counter you'll discover a mouth-watering array of sugary treats such as tarts, macaroons and gateauxs."

"I wouldn’t normally have chosen this flavour, but on a hot day they only had three to choose from. Had a changing flavour – hints of coffee, cream and caramel with little bits of caramel which gave a nice texture change."
