What sets ‘magician' Willie Mullins apart from the rest is his innate ability to never stand still

'Liverpool's best beer garden' reopens inside iconic city centre space
A beer garden is reopening in one of the city's most iconic spaces. The St Luke's Bombed Out Church beer garden returns today, just in time for summer. The iconic landmark at the top of Bold Street was originally bombed during the May Blitz of 1941. Today, the church space is a striking partial ruin, surrounded by picturesque gardens. Visitors can once again step inside and experience the space in a different way - with a pint in hand. The venue's Garden Bar is serving customers once again from today - Friday, April 4.

Taking to Instagram to announce its return, The Garden Bar said: "Here we go again. It's almost time to chase the sun in our garden. "Reopening this Friday, just in time for you to soak up the glorious weather this weekend in one of Liverpool's best beer gardens." The beer garden is open on Friday from 1pm and on Saturday, April 5 and Sunday, April 6 from 12pm. The venue added: "Visiting our Garden bar supports the site's events, projects and upkeep - so whether you're sipping a coffee or enjoying a pint, you're supporting something bigger." People were glad to hear of the news with Ted writing: "Such a wonderful space in the centre of town, love it", and Rachel adding: "Looks gorgeous". It comes as another hidden gem of a space also reopened recently. Sub Rosa, which is run by the team behind the much-loved Botanical Garden, is welcoming customers into its suntrap space in the Baltic Triangle Area. The venue features a large events space, with room for up to 30 people, seating areas made from converted trolleys and a bar made from a shipping container. The extensive drinks menu includes a range of lager created in collaboration with Black Lodge Brewery, several cocktails, and the hugely popular flavoured gin slushies. You can read more about here.
