DAY ONE
BREAKFAST - CASTLE STREET TOWNHOUSE
PRICE: £30.00 (for two people)
Starting your trip off with a big breakfast is super important, you need to get your energy levels up for your packed out visit to the city. We would recommend heading down to Castle St Townhouse for a hearty breakfast on one of Liverpool’s most impressive streets.
- We recommend: The Townhouse breakfast is a must, you can't go wrong with a full english in the morning and at £11.50 you definitely get your money's worth.

Santa Maluco’s pizza menu is perfect for a lunch time snack and the way they serve them is even better.

We don't think you could ever get enough of their pizza though.
- We recommend: You can buy by the slice or a whole pizza but we would definitely give the Rodizio a go. They have toppings like Mac & Cheese, BBQ Club, Doug Life and What The Duck so it would be a shame to miss out on any of them!
