Find out moreRoyal Albert Dock
The Albert Dock was the first place in the UK to be built completely of cast iron, brick and stone making it one of the most futuristic complexes of the 19th Century. Now it’s filled with the TATE Liverpool, restaurants and even the odd hipster food joint. A great place to meet with friends and explore the heart of the city.
Find out moreThe Bluecoat Centre
Part museum, part gallery, part shopping complex, for everything weird, wonderful and rather pleasing to snap a picture of, The Blue Coat Centre is a must visit. With modern twists and humorous homages, the Grade 1 listed building is filled with light and colour, plus a rather tasty bistro to have lunch in.
Find out moreBold Street Coffee
Deemed a Liverpool institution, this coffee shop has been serving the city for well over a decade, and keeping the street interesting with its ever-changing frontage. The inside is the same, bustling and busy with wonderful cakes and a mini gallery of paintings on its walls. Situated near the equally interesting Church of St Luke, or lovingly named “Bombed Out Church”, this is an award winner for a reason.
Find out moreLiverpool Cathedral
You would be fooled into thinking Liverpool’s Cathedral was the same as others around the country. Everything in here is bigger, louder and more brightly coloured than you can imagine. There’s even a bright pink neon sign courtesy of Tracey Emin, along with the Great West Window filled with every colour on the spectrum. Fancy a mini-adventure? There’s also the 500ft high tower, giving you a bird’s eye view of the city.

Vintage shopping in Liverpool is at its finest as you explore the hidden depths of Mooshy La La’s.

Find out moreBaltic Bakehouse
New York may have the Cronut, but Liverpool has the Cruffin. This baked beaut was the invention of the Baltic Bakehouse. Priding themselves on top-notch sourdough bread and amazing cakes and pastries, you can choose from a Mr Whippy or lemon cruffin, or maybe have a sneaky slice of their wonderfully named Crack Pie.
Find out morePeaky Blinders Bar
The recently opened Peaky Blinders Bar brings a little bit of the BBC’s 1920s drama right onto the streets of Liverpool. From the wonderfully nostalgic brick façade of the building, to the rumoured “hangover free” Pilsner Urquell (though they aren’t guaranteeing this one!) Plus with giant pictures of Tom Hardy and Cillian Murphy on its walls, what’s not to like?
Find out moreSalt House Bacaro
Serving up little plates of Italian loveliness, Salt House Bacaro is the ideal place to have a sharing meal to have with your travelling companions. From Pizzettes (mini pizzas), charcuterie as well as fish, meat and pasta, pair with a Negroni and you’re onto a winner.
