St Helens is a lovely residential area, scattered with places to eat and extremely close to the coast, take a walk across the beachfront before heading to the Hungry Bear for a bite to eat. If you’re after coastal cuisine, we recommend The Best Dressed Crab, right on the seafront, it offers wonderful seafood for you to take away whilst you explore your surroundings.
