Wirral Globe Best of 2024 top ten roast dinners revealed

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 but where can hungry people get the best that Wirral has to offer?

After launching our new Best of 2024 competition in the Wirral Globe last month, we wanted to know where to go for a delicious roast dinner.

In our first Best of 2024 category we were looking at the best hair salons, barbers and independent stylists in the town followed by the area’s most delicious pies and then picture-perfect nails.

Next up, roast dinners were in the spotlight and after receiving dozens of nominations over the weekend we have shortlisted a top ten, who will battle it out to be named the best in Wirral.

But now we need your help to choose an overall Best for Roast Dinner winner from our top ten.

There are three ways to vote:

1. Search for the Best for Roast Dinner shortlists post on our Wirral Globe Facebook or X (Twitter) pages and comment under the post with the name of your winner = 1 vote

2. Name your favourite in the comments section on this article via our website = 2 votes

3. Purchase a copy of this week’s Wirral Globe (Wednesday, May 15 edition) and fill in the entry form = 5 votes
