I leave my job at the end of the month and I am looking for suggestions of places to eat in St.Helens for my leaving do.



Most people will be travelling in, so not that bothered about location but I want somewhere that is relatively near the town centre so that we can all go and have a few jars afterwards.



I went to the italian La Vita a few months back and didn't rate it at all to be honest.



Any ideas ?

Save yourself some disappointment and head to the Albert Docks at Liverpool.



Go to Bar Blue or Est Est Est, then go for a few scoops round the docks.

You could try the police club on bishop road, good function room and seriously cheap ale (a round for four people about £6!) but they book up early for functions so ring them soonest

Parr Labour club is a good night out and you get the live bands

thanks for the replies so far guys.



What I am after ideally is a decent restaurant. We get some good scoff with a few shandies and then go and get leathered is the plan.



I think Liverpool or maybe even Warrington may be the best bet to be honest but just wanted to see if any one had any ideas.

Well then the only acceptable place is the palace on duke st. Thay have IMO the best pint of bitter in town and the food cannot be faulted, they even have a separate room upstairs if you don't want to mix with the general public

You could try Le Frog?



It depends on what kind of food you are looking for really though?

Chans on North Road is Very good.

Go for a curry, plenty to choose from and all in the town centre.

Plenty chinese restaurants to.

Colours restaurant under the college and almsot on westfield street.



St helens is a gastronomic delight, kebabs and splits fish and currys a plenty

Charlie Chans North road, great food.

Chans is probably the best restaurant, but the food takes ages to arrive, in my experience.



I know it's a chain but I like the St Helens branch of Frankie & Benny's. Avoid Larkin's at all costs. I'm also surprised at what you said about La Vita - I quite liked it there, except for the fact no one goes in, and the owner is a bit too 'familiar'.



If you're just after some quick scran and then beer after, you probably couldn't go too far wrong at the Chinese Buffet next door but one to La Vita

le frog or la casa vieja. Both near train station, then into town for bevvies! Cant go wrong with the food in both places but u may need to book in advance.
