Celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee at these Liverpool venues

If you don’t fancy throwing your own street party, why not head to Panoramic 34 and enjoy the parties from above? Here, you will find 360° views that are hard to beat. It will also offer you a place of solace away from the crowds, so you can enjoy the celebrations in the comfort of one of Liverpool’s top restaurants.

The views are not the only crowd pleaser, as Panoramic 34 has an excellent fine dining selection which offers something for everyone. A Panoramic 34 favourite is the afternoon tea, and is definitely a must-try on the day of the Jubilee. Make a toast to the queen with a glass of Champagne or one of the mouthwatering cocktails, while enjoying a mixture of tasty sandwiches, cakes and pastries, as well as on-the-house coffee and tea.

Another Queen-approved venue is The Art School, which is located in Liverpool’s picturesque Georgian Quarter. In fact, it’s hosting a food and drink event called Taste Liverpool, Drink Bordeaux which will take place during the long weekend. This is a collaboration with the Bordeaux Wine Council and the French Government who named Liverpool as the UK’s host city. This event promises to be the ‘most delicious weekend of the year’, as revelers can enjoy wine from Bordeaux’s world-famous wine producers and street food from foodie hotspots such as Bold Street, Castle Street and Hope Street.

Here, you will find a range of unique experiences from the red-chaired dining room and Champagne cellar bar to the private wine tasting area and the Moriarty Room, which is a private dining space. You can dine like the Queen herself with the ever-changing tasting menu, as well as the Excellence, Prix Fixe and Cellar’s Light Bites menus, which feature fine dining options for all. This includes pescatarian, vegetarian and vegan choices.

For an iconic event such as the Queen’s Jubilee, there’s no better place than Ma Boyle’s, which is a well-established and historical venue in Liverpool that has been up and running since 1870. In fact, the establishment celebrated its own anniversary in 2020, as it celebrated 150 years.

Ma Boyle’s historic bistro boasts one of the best bottomless brunches in Liverpool and is a skip, hop and jump away from the city’s stunning waterfront. You can head here every day during the long weekend if you wish, as Ma’s Bottomless Brunch runs from Monday to Sunday, where you will get unlimited drinks for 90 minutes along with a mouthwatering brunch dish.

There’s no better place to celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee than a tearoom, especially a tearoom with exquisite views of the Liverpool waterfront. This is exactly what you will find at Oh Me Oh My, which is the perfect place to enjoy high tea with your loved ones. The venue also hosts a range of afternoon tea events, so keep an eye out for any Jubilee-themed tea parties which may pop up in time for the long weekend.

Once you are full to the brim with sandwiches, cakes and Champagne, you can head up to the Goodness Gracious rooftop, which reopens every year in April, so by the time the Jubilee commences, it will be in full swing. Once at the top, you can enjoy a refreshing cocktail and views of the famous pier head. You may also catch a glimpse of some street parties down below, and maybe even give a quick royal wave to celebrate the occasion.

Why not make the most of the four-day weekend by booking an overnight stay or two at Thornton Hall Hotel & Spa? Located in Thornton Hough, Wirral, the luxury hotel and spa offers an award-winning afternoon tea, having previously been awarded the title of Best Tasting Afternoon Tea in the UK 2018. The Restaurant is set within Thornton Hall Hotel, with stunning grounds and terrace. It’s the perfect setting for your relaxed dining experience and an ideal way to enjoy the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee weekend.
