SUMMER is a distant memory!

The temperatures have plummeted and autumn is in the air.

Fancy a toasty roast dinner this weekend to warm up?

Yorkshire puddings filled with gravy, crispy roast potatoes and tender slices of meat that melt in the mouth – roast dinners have been a staple meal on Sundays for hundreds of years.

Whether it’s for lunch or evening meal, the traditional roast is a firm favourite.

As part of our Best of 2024 competition we asked readers and followers of the Wirral Globe to nominate their favourite place to enjoy the British classic.

We shortlisted 10 of the best roast dinners in Wirral and you voted for 21st Amendment Hoylake as this year's worthy winner.
