A Taste of Mexico on the Wirral 🇲🇽 In 2021 @pinalocawirral opened on Allport Lane in Bromborough. Offering tacos, burritos, bowls and small plates I was excited to receive an invite from the lovely owner Babul. I was then even more excited to hear they could cater to my husband’s allergies. Here’s what we tried:🌽Elote…

Etsu, Liverpool
Happy 16th Birthday Etsu 🥳 @etsurestaurant has been on Beetham Plaza in Liverpool for 16 years today! This lovely spot was one of our go to’s for fabulous Japanese food for a long time but I think it’s been about five years since we’d been. Thinking they’d not be able to cater to Steve’s food…
Alo Pho, Woodside Ferry
It began as a lunch date, but once at the Woodside Ferry terminal on the Wirral, we realised most of the food vendors were closed. Forced to eat at the only open stall, Alo Pho, we realised this was actually a good thing, pushing us out of our comfort zone. Vietnamese street food is not…
The Lion, Malpas
I was kindly invited to The Lion in the lovely Cheshire village of Malpas to sample their Farmers Afternoon Tea recently. I was lucky enough to be able to stay the night there too, enabling me to give breakfast a go aswell! The building itself dates back to the 16th century and is right in…
The Coppermine Creamery, Ellesmere Port
The long established Coppermine Creamery on Chester Road in Whitby, Ellesmere Port, has been on my list to try for a good while now. Open only until early afternoon though, I often missed the opportunity. But not this time! I purposely got up early to go and enjoy a traditional breakfast here. With no social…
Twenty First Amendment, Hoylake
I’d heard good things about this speakeasy bar in Hoylake, and was excited when they said they could do a roast dinner suitable for Steve and his food intolerances. And to hear it was also dog friendly was an added bonus. So we drove up, found parking easily, and walked the dogs down to this…
Irby Mill, Wirral
This traditional sandstone pub on the Wirral was our choice for lunch this past Sunday. Cosy and inviting, this place is the site of a former windmill but now serves up inviting pub food and real cask ales. Dog friendly throughout and very willing to accommodate Stevens food intolerances, we were ushered through a very…
Three Dollar Bill Pizza, Hoylake
I have wanted to visit Three Dollar Bill for an absolute age and this week I finally got to go. Situated on Market Street in Hoylake we parked up and arrived on what was probably the coldest night of the year so far. Serving Detroit style pizzas, which are super thick and rectangular, tater tots…
Ateyate, Little Sutton
We have a new Chinese restaurant in Little Sutton, Ellesmere Port and myself and a friend were lucky enough to have a sneak preview of the ‘dine in’ menu last night. Ateyate has opened in what used to be Cafe India, but was previously one of my favourite Chinese restaurants the Tai Ping. So I…
Nextdoor, Frodsham
We enjoyed a beautiful anniversary meal at Nextdoor in Frodsham.Set in a 17th century timber framed building, it felt very intimate and dare I say romantic. The setting for this restaurant adjoins the owners home so it literally is ‘Nextdoor’ and once housed the owners great grandfather’s butchers shop. We went for the August tasting…
