An American-style diner with a twist is welcoming customers this Good Friday, promising sass, fun and a whole lot of pink. The menu features fast-food classics, such as burgers and milkshakes, but it definitely isn't your usual restaurant - with guests served by 'fabulous' drag queens.

Ahead of the grand opening on Friday (March 29), I headed down to Victoria Street, for a sneak peek of Liverpool's sassiest newcomer, Dorothy's Diner. Based in the heart of the Pride Quarter, the new diner is right next to the likes of OMG and Slug & Lettuce, in a rather grand building. It isn't hard to miss, with big signs and large doormat donning the 'Dorothy's' name.

00:00 Dorothy's Diner has just opened and Liverpool's Pride Quarter, promising sass, fun and a whole
00:06 lot of pink. The menu features fast food classics such as burgers and milkshakes but it definitely
00:12 isn't your usual restaurant with guests being served by fabulous drag queens. The decor
00:17 is truly fabulous with tons of pink and a bar filled with alcohol and sweets. Though
00:22 the main seating area is pretty big, there's also a second balcony floor and a private
00:27 room for hen parties and birthday celebrations. Swapping the brighter pink for a pastel shade,
00:32 the private room features a huge mirror, long tables and a beautiful floral display. My
00:37 favourite part is definitely the bathroom with the ladies' loo covered in mirrors from
00:41 the stairs and the hallway floors to the sink areas, walls and ceilings. The toilets are
00:47 genuinely the nicest I've seen in town, I'd say joint first place with Albert Schloss
00:51 and they're just beautifully decorated in marble and gold. After 8 o'clock, Dorothy's
00:56 come to proper disco so expect coloured lights and all of your favourite songs playing.
