You can get a "proper New York style" sandwich right here in Liverpool, or so I was told.
More often than not, it's a good sign when you see people queuing for food somewhere. And that's what happened when I stumbled across Derek's sandwich bar on Allerton Road.
Derek's was opened in 2021 by Ethan Woodroofe and Adam Taylor, two former students of King David High School In Wavertree. They were inspired by several trips to Brooklyn, and have since opened a new site in Crosby.
