It's been a few months since I noted down a few of my favourite finds in Liverpool, since then I've found a few more stand out places - which all happen to be on Bold Street. John & I resolved at the start of the year to make sure we spend more quality time together, which has happily resulted in us trying more food/cafe places. So, here's round 2 of my favourite places to hang out/eat in Liverpool...
[The Italian Club]
I first visited this quaint Italian restaurant with a friend, which we stumbled upon when walking past. From the outside, it looked like it had a really nice atmosphere. The prices are so reasonable - we split a salad and a massive pizza and it only came to about £5 each! (This restaurant is listed on the Indepdendent's top 50 cheap eats.) The pizzas are totally amazing, the best I've had outside Italy without a doubt. Yum yum!
(The picture is from when I took John, who, being a boy, refused to share a pizza and therefore we had waay to much food! We did get it packaged up to take home though.)
There is also a sister seafood restaurant called The Italian Club Fish, which is also on Bond Street, and also amazing (albeit more expensive).

[Leaf]
Leaf is an independent teashop/cafe/bar. It's open 9am til midnight - and serves delicious food to suit any time you go. It also a venue for some small gigs, and other events you can pay for (such as the 'pudding club' - where pay something like £12 and get a 5 course meal consisting entirely of deserts - amazing). They do a lovely afternoon tea, which I treated my sister to for her birthday - I'd highly recommend it for a treat/special occasion. (You need to ring up and book at least 24 hours in advance for afternoon tea.)
The best bits in my opinion: the large menu of teas, the rich chocolate brownies, and weekly (free) acoustic nights.

[Bakchich]
Bakchich specialises in Lebanese street food (if you've not had it before, think humous, yummy marinated, chargilled meat, baklawa...). But really, you just need to go there and try it - it's so delicious! Everything is really fresh, and there's great veggie options too. I'm now completely converted to falafel after being totally against it (I blame the dodgy supermarket pre-packaged falafel wraps).
All this talk of food has made me hungry, so I'm off for a cup of tea and a couple of biscuits!
