Dishoom Permit Room Liverpool

You'll find this atmospheric drinking den tucked away from the main Dishoom operation, designed to feel like a 1930s Bombay permit room where locals would gather for illicit drinks during prohibition. The cocktail menu is seriously impressive - think proper chai old fashioneds and house-made tonics alongside classics executed with real precision. The food menu keeps things simple but stellar: their black daal is as good as the main restaurant's, while the kejriwal (cheese chilli toast) is perfect drinking food. The space itself is dimly lit with vintage fans and period details that transport you completely. Book ahead - this isn't a walk-in kind of place, and locals have cottoned on to how special it is.
