Game Over

With a growing digital sector in the Baltic Triangle area of the city, and a large population of students and technically minded young people, it may come as no surprise that Liverpool already has an interest in Video Games, but these next few bars are set to bring a retro wave of nostalgia over punters across the city looking for something different on a night out.
Three different arcade-centric bars are due to start popping up around the city, two in the city center, a stones’ throw away from concert square, and one in the Baltic Triangle’s Cain’s brewery. Clearly there will be competition afoot, not just among players and gamers, but among the bar owners too!
The Baltic Triangle area specifically is experiencing an incredible amount of development, preparing it for the future of the city, and is certainly the place to be. It has been named by many as one of the trendiest locations to live in the UK. Other developments ongoing in this area include a multi-million-pound hotel investment to cater to the growing base of tourism in the city, and luxury property developments from companies such as RWinvest also satiate the growing demand for housing in the area.
On Point
Here’s an interesting futuristic one to keep an eye on going forward. Capitalizing on internet culture and appealing to students and young people with its theme, On Point, a bar opening on Victoria Street soon aims to bring an interactive experience to each table. Visitors will be able to watch television and order food and drink all from the comfort of their booth, and even take selfies using the tech. The bar will offer cocktails, a selection of wines, and some Chinese-inspired appetizers and snacks.
14 Bar and Grill

The Panoramic in Liverpool is a popular and well-known destination for luxury food and a similarly luxury view of the surrounding city (the clue’s in the name), but for many, the luxury price point can be off-putting, and it’s more of a special occasion meal. For a more laid-back and chilled vibe, still retaining a great view of Liverpool’s sights and sounds, 14 Bar and Grill seeks to offer the perfect after-work or Friday night atmosphere.
Abditory
Want to get away from all the hustle and bustle of the city, and have a nice quiet drink? Upcoming bar Abditory is set to offer a classic, chill vibe, offset on Queen’s Avenue and avoiding the busy streets in an area known as Liverpool’s ‘Diagon Alley’. It’s good news for the toastie lovers of tomorrow, as the bar will specialize in a variety of toastie fillings, as well of a range of cocktails and other drinks.
Lane7

It’s not everyone’s ideal bar space to have a few drinks, but it does make for an alternative date night idea or a place to take your friends for a fun birthday treat! Who doesn’t love mixing tasty snacks with drink and having a laugh with your dear friends? Lane7 can provide you with countless hours of fun!
