Liverpool Restaurants

Sophisticated diners should head for Hope Street where they’ll find two of the finest restaurants in Liverpool, 60 Hope Street and the London Carriage Works. Many of the city’s bars also do food, the PanAm at Albert Dock being a prime example. As the home of the UK’s oldest Chinese community, Chinese restaurants are found in abundance.
