Food and drink

Liverpool’s restaurant scene has blossomed over the past decade, and whatever your taste and budget, the choice is huge. The city is home to Europe’s oldest Chinese community, so you’ll find lots of Chinese restaurants in the city’s Chinatown. And in many places you can still indulge in excellent local delicacies like Scouse and local seafood.

Music and nightlife

To mention Liverpool’s music scene without The Beatles is almost impossible. But the city is putting itself back on the map with a clutch of new bands taking over the British music scene. For live music, head to the Liverpool Academy, Bumper and Magnet. And for a great night out, the bars and clubs around Concert Square and Mathew Street have something for everyone.
