Sultan's palace and Mayur are pretty good and a bit posher than the average (and reasonably inexpensive too from memory) . If you're after the average place with a vindaloo and a naan there're hundreds.

I've been to Sultan's Palace a couple of times in the last year. Funny enough it was the place most favoured by my Indian IT contractor buddies in Liverpool.

Personally I thought it was just ok but I can't recommend anywhere else as I don't get out much due to having no babysitter.

Cheers,

Paul

artistpaul,

no upto date knowledge of BIR in Liverpool. it's not a BIR mecca for me though - more for Chinese and Italian.

the best guy i think retired a few years ago (had place on road to aigbirth).

billycat's place in Heswall is top notch but across the water.

You are right Jerry, Liverpool is no mecca for BIR. I think it's partly due to the lack of Asians living here compared to cities like Manchester, Leeds, the Midlands etc.

I really wish we had a few more Asian shops in Liverpool as I'm sick of paying supermarket prices for onions, garlic, ginger, fresh coriander, peppers and chillis.

I'm not sure whether it would be cheaper to drive to Manchester to get stocked up.

Hi Mark,

I live in the north - Crosby. I know about Mattas on Bold Street city centre but nowhere else. I've heard there is somewhere on Smithdown road but never ventured up there.

I used to live in Manchester - they seemed to be on every street corner in certain areas.
