Does anyone know of any all night cafes near to Liverpool Lime St station or the ferry terminal? My google skills are only turning up 24 hour Asda but I'm fairly sure there must be a gem or two tucked away somewhere.

If you get a taxi to Kings Cross there are several, ahem, gentlemen's clubs that stay open all night.

Edit - just spotted the Lime bit between Liverpool and Street. Don't get a taxi from Liverpool to Kings Cross. :grin:

May be a burger van near Lime Street can't think of any places open all night. Ask one of the station staff they should know. Not sure about there being a gem nearby it's quite lively in that bit of town. If you're not too late Bold Street has lots of eaty places 10 minute walk.

Not mapped them to the Ferry terminal

There’s a McDonald’s nearby that is apparently open 24hrs

Do a good and inexpensive cup of tea, was very handy on Le Jog

Isn't there a 24hr bar/cafe in the station?

If it's the one i'm thinking of, you're better to swerve that 24hr Maccy's.
But if you don't, the bouncers on the door may be kind enough to mind your bikes.. :shock:

There might be a 24hr cafe up by the hospital, will try to find out tomorrow..

Edit: Been unable to confirm about a cafe near the hospital as yet...

But if there is a 24hr cafe anywhere near the centre, the clientele will definitely be, how should i put it, 'colourful' :lol:

If you're there in the day then this bike-friendly cafe is worth a visit, good coffee & food :cool:

There's also a cracking bakery round the corner that does an excellent cheese-on-toast-

If you want a 24hr McDonalds then the 'Albert Dock' drive through on Blundell St might be your best bet, far enough away from the carnage in the centre, but only a short ride past the Albert Dock & along the Pier Head to the Ferry Port..

There used to be a couple of all night establishments along the dock road, but the chances are you'd never been seen or heard from again if you chanced any of those 8-X 8-X
