Dale Street Kitchen & Bar
Dale Street Kitchen & Bar is a breakfast and brunch spot in Westminster Chambers, a Victorian office block on Dale Street in Liverpool's business district. Its full English is the big draw and queues often form outside, with smoothies, Bloody Marys and mimosas for a slower weekend start.

What to order
The full English is the dish people come for: bacon, sausage, black pudding, eggs, mushrooms, hash brown and thick toast. Beyond breakfast there are sandwiches such as a stacked steak sandwich, plus smoothies and coffee. Brunch cocktails such as Bloody Marys and mimosas make it a weekend favourite. Portions are classic rather than huge, and extras such as a second sausage are charged separately, so check the menu if you have a big appetite. Coffee is fine rather than a destination in itself; the smoothies and Bloody Mary got better reviews. If the queue is long, the window seats are worth waiting for, with a view of Dale Street's grand commercial buildings.
The room
Inside, Scandinavian-style furniture sits against black-and-white photographs of Liverpool, and window seats look out over Dale Street. Service is quick even when it is busy, which helps when there is a queue.
Fitting it in
Dale Street runs from the Town Hall towards the Cultural Quarter, so this is a good fuel stop before the World Museum, St George's Hall or the waterfront. On weekends go early or be ready to wait. The Grapes and Mathew Street are a short walk away if you are making a day of it.
