Dan Haygarth - Queens, Queen Avenue, city centre

Found on Queen Avenue - away from the hustle and bustle of Castle Street - Queens brings a slice of Parisian style to Liverpool. The bistro and wine bar has just turned five years old and serves an ever-changing menu, made up of dishes crafted with quality and well-matched seasonal ingredients. Chefs work in a partly exposed kitchen, adding atmosphere to a relaxed and very attractive setting that transports you to the French capital. In the summer, sitting outside on Queen Avenue is as good as it gets.

Personal favourites among the rotating menu include Queens’ steak frites, which is phenomenal, and a starter of pigeon breast, celeriac puree, hispi cabbage and blackberries. The friendly staff are knowledgeable and will happily pair your meal with a glass from an extensive wine list - supplied by neighbours R&H Fine Wines (now also found on Allerton Road) - or a crisp European lager. If you’re willing to part with a little more cash, you will struggle to beat this classy but unassuming hidden gem.
