A couple of my friends have just opened up a little coffee shop on Slater Street, it's called Potts Coffee, they've done it all off their own back and my friend has given up his job to do something he always dreamed of doing. It's just opposite the Shipping Forecast. The cafe has quite a clean feel, with white walls and and rustic tables. All of the food here is plant-based and there is a focus on sustainability and reducing environmental impact. I had a 'Buddha bowl' there last week and it was lovely. Sorry to plug my friend's business, but I'm genuinely impressed by what they have achieved. Feel free to censor, banish, condemn, delete etc. this post if I am breaking the rules! it's a nice place to stop for a coffee or a bite to eat if you're in that part of town.
Still loving Maray and Mowgli. Only been Belzan once, was nice, but felt a bit similar to Maray which I prefer, staff are nice and friendly there. Always get the tiffin at Mowgli myself. For plant-based food another place I like is Guac n' Roll in Craft Taproom on Smithdown, more a pub than a restaurant. Wouldn't mind going to Spire at some point when i'm back in town.
