The Metropolitan
21-23 Berry Street, Liverpool, L1 9DF [Map]
Said to be designed to bring the gastropub experience to Liverpool. Actually I thought it had already arrived, but I am not contesting the point. So, Liverpool, this is it you lucky people. In fact it's an improvement on the standard format in my view, being not so large as some, where it is possible to be found still wandering the following morning.
The décor would do justice to a country house without the portraits and the oak bar is superb. Traditional country fare is on offer with such well-loved items as bangers and mash, cheese ravioli, ciabatta sandwiches and Caesar salad.

Restaurant Bar & Grill - Liverpool
Halifax House, Brunswick Street, Liverpool, L2 0UU [Map]
Independent in style, Restaurant Bar and Grill, provides a vibrant setting for a business lunch, a break from shopping or a casual coffee with friends. The minimalist, contemporary designs, coupled with a lively and buzzing atmosphere ensures that the restaurant is always bustling with life, creating the perfect ambiance for day time dining.
Keeping an eye on the calendar, the kitchen carefully sources fresh and high quality ingredients. Think of an Asian plate that comprises of Thai prawn cakes, duck spring rolls, chilli squid, Vietnamese vegetables and mint salad, tempura king prawns and Malayan chicken skewers, to begin your meal. Follow it by a fish pie or pasta and finally close with a chocolate fudge pudding.
The wine cellar is well stocked and a good selection by the glass is to hand, something that well befits a predominantly lunchtime menu.

PizzaExpress - Liverpool (Albert Dock)
16 Monarch Quay, Kings Waterfront, Liverpool, L3 4BX [Map]
Pizza Express remains a hugely popular bedrock of casual eating. Its popularity is testimony to the fact that across the country, they have restaurants where you will always be guaranteed a good nosh, with children's tastes being well catered for.
Pizza Express has gone even more Roman, and following the success of that particular example of listening to their public have introduced Romana pizzas, including the scorching Etna and the hearty Siciliana.
These pizzas are now thinner, bigger and crispier, and if that sounds like a marketing line, it is. However, unlike many such lines, this one is true, and their quality is always consistent, though cleverly they have still managed to retain a homemade feel to their pizzas.
As an alternative to pizza, try their pollo pesto - cavatappi pasta with torn chicken breast, mushrooms, red onions and mozzarella in a creamy gruyere, parmesan and pesto sauce and finished with grana padano - or the niçoise salad with mixed leaves, yellowfin tuna, free range egg, green beans, potatoes and tomatoes with olives, anchovies, capers and house dressing.
Many of the big chains have come a long way, and Pizza Express is certainly amongst them. One of the first to be quoted on the Stock Exchange - in 1993 - Pizza Express is not a franchise operation and retains tight control through its own staff.
Their wine list - though short - contains some surprisingly good offerings, especially their intense Australian Chardonnay, and a big, full-bodied Merlot from Cusumano, Sicilia.
