What to Eat
Liverpool has no lack of appealing food stops! From Indian street food and Japanese hibachi to purveyors of Robusta coffee and the city's first "dry bar," there's truly something for everyone!
Coffee & Lunch
The Brink
@amyisgoingplaces
The Brink features well made coffees, cozy soups, tasty (toasty) sandwiches, and other lunch fare at reasonable prices.
The warm environment is welcoming for anyone looking for a quick bite, a place to stay a while and work on their laptop, lunch and conversation with a coworker, or even a friendly game of chess.
What I did not know before first visiting The Brink is they are Liverpool's first "dry bar" and actively support those struggling with addictions of various kinds. They are making a lasting impact in the city of Liverpool and the lives of people there.

200 Degrees Coffee Shop
@amyisgoingplaces
200 degrees is an ideal temperature to brew hot coffee, so it became the name of this UK cafe chain that roasts their own beans.
To date, it's one of my favorite cups of coffee in the United Kingdom. (Any cafe that has their own barista school must be onto something good, right?) When there, I buy bags of beans to take with me and give to friends as souvenirs.

Black Sheep Coffee & Cocktails
@amyisgoingplaces
Robusta, not arabica, are the beans Black Sheep Coffee offers. What's the difference? Robusta has a more earthy flavor and superior caffeine kick.
Give it a try hot or iced, and pair it with their breakfast, brunch, and lunch offerings. Vegetarian options are available.
And while you're there, you'll finally be able to answer the question of "Where's Waldo?"

The Bagelry
@amyisgoingplaces
Bagel sandwiches loaded up with enough goodness to fuel you through a day of exploring, vegan donuts, and classic bagels with cream cheese for the purists are on the menu at The Bagelry, an independent shop in Chinatown.
The menu includes vegan and vegetarian selections. Don't forget to grab a coffee or tea while you're there!

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Amy Is Going Places
Available for hire
US native. Former resident of Romania. Current solo female globe trotter.
I've ventured to more than a dozen countries across four continents as part of group tours, volunteer work, solo travel, studying abroad, and teaching internationally. I lived for over a year in Romania, many years in Tennessee, and several months in England.
My travel style is slow, spontaneous, and - shall we say - richly flavorful. I prefer to stay longer lengths in places instead of having a whirlwind sightseeing venture. I'll skip the chain restaurants for a hole-in-the-wall café any day of the week. I prefer a loose itinerary and remain open to what each day brings.
My favorite things to do and see as I travel are...
- EAT -
Try whatever is local. Order the special of the day. Talk with the restaurant staff.
- WALK -
It encourages me to slow down, notice, and get a feel for community.
- HIKE -
I'm a lazy hiker. By "hike," I mean a few hours at a slow pace.
- MUSEUMS -
Spend an afternoon. Read the descriptions on exhibits. Talk with the docents. Buy something in the giftshop.
- CHURCHES -
I'm fascinated by the various ways people have worshipped the God of the Bible over centuries and across borders. Many older churches are also museums or tourist-friendly spaces. Some additionally hold regular liturgical services.
- CASTLES -
Castles, fortresses, palaces, big ol' houses: these places transport me back in time. I imagine the people who built, lived in, and defended them. What would they think of how we now live?
