Best Shopping Malls, Outlet and Places in Wilcove Area

"A trip to Liverpool is incomplete without stopping by Liverpool ONE. This large shopping complex is at the heart of Liverpool’s city centre and holds all of the most popular chain stores and entertainment facilities. Complete with a cinema, adventure golf, and even two hotels, Liverpool ONE is the largest open-air shopping centre in the UK. Liverpool ONE consists of six districts, providing street markets, fashion, department stores, restaurants and more."

"BridgeStreet Liverpool ONE is situated in the heart of the Liverpool ONE, the cities number one, premier shopping and leisure destination. Our centrally located apartments offer a choice of stylish one, two and three bedroom apartments. All of these apartments are fitted out to the highest specification throughout, with key features being our great comfortable double beds, fully functional kitchens and beautiful bathrooms, serviced on a weekly basis."

"Taking inspiration from London’s Boxpark pop-up, Hatch is a series of colourful shipping-containers housing street food vendors, bars and independent shops. Located right in the middle of Manchester’s student-focused Oxford Road, you’ll often find undergrads enjoying one of Parmageddon’s locally famous chicken-parm sandwiches or devouring Herbivorous’ range of vegan burgers and loaded fries, dripping with barbecue jackfruit. Its ever-changing selection of traders, combined with a price point that’s around the tenner mark, makes this hugely popular hang-out the perfect place to grab a bite to eat without breaking the bank."

"Everyone’s favourite pop-up is back for all our food, drink and retail needs, everyday from the 12th. With food from all over the world and, more importantly, those dangerous two for £10 cocktails, Hatch is now open for bookings as well as walk-ins, so secure your table ASAP. Six weeks from now… Spring is in the air."

"Tiny nanobrewery Öl has its own brew kit on-site and makes some fabulous concoctions. But, as a result of the tiny set-up, their own beers usually sell out incredibly fast, so they stock a range of others too. Find them at Hatch on Oxford Road in one of the shipping containers."

"Anyone who grew up in Manchester probably spent a good proportion of their teenage years wandering around Afflecks (formally known as Affleck’s Palace). Since its opening in 1981, this warren of independent shops is a perfect alternative to high street shopping in the city, offering everything from rubber jumpsuits to rave gear. Yes, there will always be that side of Afflecks (you’ll also find condoms and sex toys), but there really is something for everyone if you take the time to browse its multitude of market stalls."

"AFFLECKS IS AN EMPORIUM OF ECLECTICISM, A TOTEM OF INDIE COMMERCE IN MANCHESTER’S NORTHERN QUARTER”. There are three main outlets inside Afflecks Palace which stock vintage clothing – catering for all types and styles, sizes and shapes. Afflecks has an extensive selection of different outlets from Punk and Goth, to a 100% vegan store!"

"Affleck’s is a perfect spot for a stylish and unusual photo. It’s also a place, where you can buy a lot of unusual things for a photoshoot or just for yourself. There are some amazing dresses, jewellery and other items that I have never seen anywhere else!"

"Lurking as it does behind Deansgate Station, it’s easy to miss this quirky platform for emerging artists but it's worth seeking out. The primary emphasis at Castlefield Gallery is niche projects that have international relevance, exploring topics such as the role of art in society through collaborations with local organisations like Madlab. A registered charity, it also has a members’ scheme."

"Barton Arcade is a Victorian shopping arcade that has shops and restaurants on the ground floor and offices and administrative spaces on all the other floors. The architecture style is really beautiful and the stairs between floors are stunning as well. Barton Arcade is especially beautiful when it’s empty in the morning hours (just after opening), so you can capture it without the crowds."

"Built in 1871, the Victorian-style shopping arcade is located between Deansgate and St. Ann’s Square. The idyllic structure of cast iron and glass is now home to luxurious shops and office buildings. Go here to take your pics against the backdrop of colourful tiles and impressive artwork."

"New Mersey is a retail park that houses different shops from your favourite brands. With specialised stores for clothing items, pet supplies, toy store and furniture, you would certainly find all the items that you need. They also have a wide array of restaurants, cafes and fast food that serves different delicious meals that is right for your taste."

"Located on Thomas Street in the Northern Quarter, the Centre for Chinese Contemporary Art is a leading exhibition in exploring contemporary Chinese culture, through performances, workshops and film screenings. It is currently awaiting a date for reopening."

"One of the first places to open up in the now uber-trendy Northern Quarter the Frog and Buckets plays host to Manchester's longest-running comedy club. Not only some fantastic homegrown talent, but comedy greats also pass through from all over the world. There are two opportunities every week to enjoy a giggle, their 'Barrel of Laughs' night and also their open mic night 'Beat the Frog'."

"Situated on Seel Street – one of the best streets in the city for bars and venues – Hot Water Comedy Club is Liverpool’s only purpose-built comedy venue and comes highly recommended. With comedy shows seven nights a week, this is up there with the best for catching the next big thing in the comedian world. Promoters at Hot Water are also regularly bringing the best comedians to shows in The Wirral, Manchester and at Edinburgh Fringe Festival."

"A post shared by Hot Water Comedy Club (@hwccliverpool) on Jan 1, 2017 at 6:57am PST. As Liverpool’s only purpose built comedy venue, Hot Water Comedy Club is the place where you’ll find live a good laugh 7 nights a week; come rain, some shine. It’s an independent comedy club in the Ropewalks areas of the city, run by two brothers, which originally began as a weekly comedy night to round off the weekend on a high, and it grew from there."

"With promoters proudly running Laughterhouse Comedy for over a decade, this comedy club is well experienced to give you a good night. Their line-ups feature headline-worthy acts from the opening comedian to the final comic, with the likes of Jason Manford, Mark Watson and Lee Nelson in their recent repertoire. 13-15 Fenwick St, Liverpool L2 7LS, England, UK, +44 151 227 5946"

"Within distance #comedy #comedyclub #liverpool #laughterhouse. A post shared by Michael McMullan (@michael_j_mcmullan) on Apr 23, 2016 at 12:00pm PDT. It’s a tricky game, putting on a comedy night."

"Inspiring the 1967 Beatles’ song Strawberry Fields Forever, Strawberry Field in the Liverpool suburb of Woolton functioned as a Salvation Army children’s home from 1936 to 2005. As a boy, Lennon would sneak in to play, and enjoyed watching the band at the annual garden party. These experiences would go on to inform his later songwriting."

"Located inside the YHA building in the Cavern Quarter, Strawberry Fields has an all-day menu but has sadly been closed and I haven’t been able to go yet. They offer a cuppa and cake for £3.95 so we’re looking forward to them re-opening."
