Met up with Danielle & Hannah after work to go to Hus as they were opening their roof top terrace & were having a free bbq. We went up & it was super busy & we weren't feeling it. It was super sunny, blue skies & was freezing.
It was really nice up there but it was so crowded with a little bar. Perfect beer garden weather apart from it being freezing. We decided to go down the road to Barley and Beans.
Barley and Beans
Barley and Beans is quite hidden & out of town off Tithebarn Street near the original Lambanana. It's a little hidden gem, cosy little cafe that does the famous freakshakes, milkshakes, tea, coffee, pancakes, sandwiches & burgers.
Danielle & Hannah got the freakshakes. I was boring & got a green tea. It was diabetes in a jar man v food!

Gunpowder green tea
Danielle got the strawberry freakshake
Hannah got the salted caramel freakshake
They just look so sickly!
Izakaya
After we went to Izakaya which is on Castle Street right by the Town Hall as I needed proper food having been in work all day & also not getting anything at Barley and Beans. Danielle managed to have all her freakshake & shared sushi with me. I guess she was just having desert first?
Pork gyoza with chilli bean & sesame dressing
2 salmon nigiri, 4 shrimp & salmon volcano rolls & 4 spicy tuna rolls
Enoki & vegetable ramen with soft egg
The sushi was really nice but not filling so I ended up ordering the small ramen.
I'd advise you check your bill when you pay as the bill price was different to what was on the menu. They've changed the prices on the menu but they were still giving out the old menu with the old prices! It was fine though they sorted it straight away & corrected it.
The bus journey took us half an hour just trying to get out or town due to Aintree races, ladies day there was so much traffic! Me & Danielle were loving it seeing all the people dressed up. Thought girls were being really clever or it was the new trend to take flip flops with them but it turns out they were giving them out to people, which is a really good idea! Tomorrow is the one time of the year where everyone is a gambler betting on the grand national. I've never won anything but it's more luck than anything as the favourite hardly ever wins.
