Bundobust’s taps now feature hazy pale Peela and chai porter Chaitro – the first releases from its new brewery on Oxford Road, which should open to the public in late August."

"The Quarter is a renowned haunt for vegetarian pizza & pasta lovers. The Italian cafe on Faulkner Street inspired by the milk bars of Australia has an eclectic global menu with Spanish pizza below, one of its most colourful and tastiest treats. As co-owner Colin Manning put it: “Manchego cheese, roast peppers, rosemary potatoes & aioli is one of my favourite combinations on a pizza and it’s a vegetarian favourite too!"

"Whilst being renowned for its food, the venue is understated for its romance. The Quarter brings the best of Europe together; the road looks like something out of Amsterdam, the decor is reminiscent of Paris and the food is Italian inspired. It doesn’t get much more continental than that."

"Until the erection of today’s popular 1960s building, Roman Catholics in Liverpool had no true cathedral in which to worship. Edward Welby Pugin, son of the more famous Augustus, was commissioned to design a cathedral in 1853 but only part of it was built, which served as a parish church until it was demolished in the 1980s. After the Anglican cathedral began to rise at one end of Hope Street in 1904, Sir Edwin Lutyens was commissioned to outdo Sir Giles Gilbert Scott’s design at a new site at the other end of the same street."

With amazing seafood and authentic Italian dishes from pizzas, pastas to steak and lobster, San Carlo is a special experience. Of all the Castle Street restaurants and bars San Carlo is an institution!"
