Known all over Liverpool as the best place to pick up the perfect pie, Homebaked easily made the top of our list.
Pay a visit to Homebaked before a match at Anfield and get your mitts on a delicious piece of pastry heaven. Each delicious pie is made with love by the hands of the community that saved the bakery from complete closure. Courses and training are paid for by the profits and any leftovers are given to local food banks and homeless shelters.
Homebaked is without a doubt the best place to visit during British Pie Week in Liverpool.
The Bastion Bar and Restaurant
For British Pie Week only The Bastion Bar and Restaurant are offering a two for one pie special all week long.
The Bastion chefs will be whipping up a new filling for every day of British Pie Week so there’s something different on the menu every day of the week.
After dining on your pie of choice why not take a wander around the Bill Shankly museum and check out the collection of rare Shankly memorabilia on display.

Hidden off the beaten track, in the alcoves of Albert Dock is a pirate-themed restaurant with a treasure trove of foodie delights on its menu.
During British Pie Week make your way to Smugglers Cove for the perfect pie experience. There are three pastry goodies to wrap your lips around including a veggie option of butternut squash, goats cheese and mushrooms.

There’s nothing like a dish of sumptuous flavourful filling topped with a lid made from layers of crisped puff pastry.
At Ma Boyles not only can you order one of three flavoured puff pastry topped goodies but there’s also the chance to catch a bit of live music inside one of the cities most well established social venues.

Baltic Fleet
In a Grade II listed building lurks a fascinating part of Liverpool’s history and the physical definition of a great British pie.
The Baltic fleet once served the dock workers of Liverpool and is well known for being heavily involved in the scandalous history of the press gang.
But their reputation these days is based on the fact that they serve a large selection of refreshing ales and the best pies this side of the Mersey River.
Kasbah
Nobody said you had to eat a traditional British pie during British Pie Week so if your tastes run towards the more exotic flavour pairings, the Kasbah Cafe have exactly what you need.
Their delicious pastilla can be a flavourful mix of sweet and savoury chicken or cheesy lamb filled loveliness all wrapped in the lightest flakiest pastry known to man.

George’s Great British Kitchen
Time for something sweet on the menu and a Caramac and Bramley apple pie will certainly hit that spot.
George’s Great British Kitchen have come up with a helluva twist on the classic deep-filled apple pie.
Topping what could be considered an utterly average pie with everyone’s favourite chocolate bar and a dollop of smooth ice cream to mellow it all out.
Pie heaven.
