'Barley & Beans' Cafe & Bar; Review
Barley & Beans is a relaxed and informal place in a quieter area of town. A stone’s throw from Moorfields and the Ship & Mitre (a mighty fine real ale pub), the menu boasts one of the most authoritative breakfast/brunch selections in the city. As the proprietor states, breakfast should not be wasted, confined to the am. Afternoon breakfast should not be the sole domain of the bleary-eyed, hungover student. If you want Eggs Benedict…

It’s not every Friday afternoon I get to sip beer, in the sunshine, in the presence of some of the most awe-inspiring psych bands I’ve ever heard; the beginning of Liverpool Psych fest 2014 was happily one of those times.

The Elephant Bakehouse Woolton; Review
Woolton Village is a funny place: leafy and quiet during the day, with its Farmer’s Market and little old cinema; hotbed of teenage drinkers and a bit like the Wild West at night. Always has been. But things are looking up. Simon Rimmer, Scouse celeb chef, massive LFC fan and inventor of pulled pork has just opened the old Elephant pub as The Elephant Bakehouse. Big refurb and it’s looking pretty again with a much…

Las Iguanas; Review
Liverpool’s finest Brazilian inspired restaurant has more than it’s delicious food to offer. During the World Cup, Las Iguanas has made the place top priority for football lovers as well as those who favour a taste of Brazilian cuisine.

The Brink; Afternoon Tea
The Brink has always been a favourite of ours. Since it opened in 2011 it has led the way in creating a diverse and imaginative dry bar and eatery as well as playing host to up and coming musicians and performers. It has become an integral part of Liverpool’s social scene. We headed down on a sunny Saturday afternoon in need of a sit down and some serious refreshments. Opting for the afternoon tea…

Berry & Rye; A Bar Worth Discovering
Old fashioned vintage bars are hard to come across these days. It’s very rare that we find ourselves sitting in a dim-lit room with men in suits and hats drinking gin and smoking cigars and women in classy gorgeous dresses sipping wine, like something from a 60’s movie. So have you come across any bars like that lately? Settled right at the top of Bold Street is an American styled bar known as Berry &…
