North Sixty4

Tucked inside the iconic Hard Days Night Hotel on North John Street, North Sixty4 brings a polished dose of Liverpool charm to the city centre. Its name tips the hat to a certain Beatles classic, but the tone is thoroughly contemporary: warm lighting, rich textures and an easy elegance that suits everything from relaxed lunches to pre-theatre pit stops and celebratory dinners.

The kitchen leans into beloved British staples and worldly comforts with a seasonal, local sensibility. Think king prawns with avocado and mango in a honeyed dressing to start, followed by a well-charred 10-oz sirloin or lamb chops from the grill. Classics sing too: Penny Lane fish and chips arrive crisp and golden, while a comforting steak pie and creamy mac and cheese speak to hearty appetites. Those after lighter rhythms can turn to penne arrabbiata or king prawn tagliatelle with sunblush tomatoes and parmesan, alongside pan-fried hake or seabass with saffron.

Book a table, settle under the glow, and let North Sixty4 strike the right chord for your next Liverpool outing. You will leave humming.
