If there’s one phrase we hear time and time again on our Taste of Chester, Manchester, Liverpool and Shrewsbury food tours, it’s this:

“I didn’t expect there to be SO much food!”

And honestly? We absolutely love hearing it.

At Walking Food Tours UK, our tours have never been about tiny tasters or delicate canapés that leave guests searching for a late-night takeaway afterwards. Since launching back in 2018, the aim has always been simple: showcase incredible independent food and drink venues whilst making sure guests leave happy, smiling… and very full indeed.

Across Chester, Liverpool, Manchester and Shrewsbury, our tours combine generous food and drink tastings with local stories, hidden gems and plenty of laughs along the way.

And it seems guests agree.

“So Much Food!”

One recent guest described the experience as:

“Fantastic experience! We visited some places we would never have found by ourselves. Food was incredible and so much of it.”

Another said:

“Every single stop was delicious and offered something different and unique.”

Whilst many food tours focus purely on the food itself, we’ve always believed the magic lies in the overall experience.

It’s about discovering hidden alleyways in Chester, hearing fascinating stories around Liverpool’s docks, exploring Manchester’s independent food scene or uncovering Shrewsbury’s historic charm one bite at a time.

But let’s be honest… the food matters too!

Generous Tastings from Brilliant Independent Venues

That’s why every tour is carefully curated to ensure guests experience genuinely satisfying portions across multiple independent venues.

From artisan bakeries and family-run restaurants to modern kitchens and hidden foodie gems, each stop has been selected not just for quality, but for personality, passion and hospitality too.

One of the biggest compliments we receive is when guests say they’ve cancelled dinner plans afterwards!

Our Shrewsbury guests have described the experience as:

“A great afternoon eating and drinking with friends.”

And Liverpool guests regularly praise both the quality and quantity of the experience:

“The venues were fantastic, delicious food…”

More Than a Food Tour

Over the years, thousands of guests have joined us across the North West and North Wales, helping us achieve hundreds of five-star reviews and Tripadvisor Travellers’ Choice recognition for six consecutive years.

But beyond the awards, the biggest achievement is simple: seeing guests walk away chatting about the venues, the people they’ve met, the stories they’ve heard and, of course… how full they are.
