Bistro in Liverpool

“Can’t wait to come back! I recently came here as part of my 30th birthday celebrations and was not disappointed in the slightest. Their food is out of this world and each dish is so unique! My favourite was the accompanying wine as this complimented each dish perfectly! I’d definitely recommend getting the tasting menu but I’m sure you’d love anything from here! Will be booking again soon.”

“Wonderful comforting roast dinner that takes Toby carvery, bends it over the knee of the dining room and gives it a thorough spanking. Loads of meat and gravy, beautifully cooked. Do yourself a favour and come in.”

“What a lovely place, food is outstanding , fresh and tasty, nice atmosphere the staff are friendly, chatty and helpful. I came here when I was in liverpool visiting family, my son loved the pizza and was the best he had tasted. Decor inside is amazing and outside is a sun trap I certainly enjoyed my wine In the sunshine.”

“Amazing place - found via Michelin Guide. Food quality was beyond expectations - particularly the foccaccia was super tasty. Variety was perfect and everything was very fresh. Location and the atmosphere of the restaurant are perfect too! Highly recommended to visit - worth to make a reservation.”

“I took my husband for an afternoon tea at this lovely little place. It is quaint, serves lovely food, the staff were so friendly nothing was too much trouble, couldn't have done more to give us a lovely experience. Booked through buy a gift as it was a present but can go directly through them.”

“Light lunch, in a lovely setting, previously we've sat out in the garden sat inside today and always had lovely food and excellent service, friendly, helpful staff.”

“Lovely little restaurant with friendly staff, great service and good food. We went for dinner as part of a little pre Christmas trip to Chester. The small plates were delightful. We had the focaccia, meatball and fried lasagna. Every item was lovely… and I’ve definitely been inspired to deep fry my lasagna in future! We had the onglet, bhaji burger and broccoli tagliatelle for mains. The onglet was delightful, but I didn’t regret my choice (the tagliatelle). The mango ketchup that came with the bhaji burger was too sweet for us, but I’m sure it would have suit those who have a sweeter palate. If we had extra stomach space, I would have loved to try the lasagna (because the fried version was so nice!) Nothing wrong with the dessert per se, but they were the weakest course… which was a little odd. The chocolate crème brûlée was fine but nothing to write home about … while the sticky toffee pudding was not the right texture for me. The coffees were delightful though!! Overall, this was a good find! I’d love to go back during the day and try their brunch - the Malaysian in me is intrigued by the chai tow kway & paratha (the description is that for chai tow kway so not sure where the paratha comes in, but I wanna try it!!)”

“Would highly recommend going for a meal here. The staff were really helpful. The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was was lovely. We will definitely be going again next year.”

“The menu is great. Many options that you won't easily find together somewhere else. We got a Chateaubriand which is served for 2, and it was great as medium cooked. I would prefer it in thinner slices, but this one was also OK. Juicy, soft, and pink inside. We also got sides of Slow-Cooked Beef Shin and Stuffed Bone Marrow. Bone Marrow could be too fatty for some, but for me it was great as is. Beef Shin was a bit sweet, of being caramelized, i guess. I just didn't like that every single thing in the menu is served with some big amount of grilled/fried onion which I think is the signature of the venue. It was with every single thing we ordered - and it's too much of it at the end. With the desserts, they have quite a lot options again. we got creme brule and biscuit torte. Biscuit torte was a bit too sweet but creme brule was amazing. You also have options of ordering mini-desserts with hot drink costing only 6.50 and I liked this opiton. What I ordered was a full size of it and I guess it might be too big for some after eating that much. What I didn't like regarding the venue is the service which makes you wait quite a long time for only asking for your order. It was too much of allowance for us to think :) Also, we have been seated to a table which was dark due to the lamp which wasn't working. I was told that the lamp was broken for some reason whan I asked that to be turned off - because it was just too dark without that working. And I didn't like that the staff had me seated there knowing it wasn't working while we had some other options. We had been seated to somewhere else then. The price is higher than most of the steak houses in the city, but for an understandable reason after having this experience. You can park your cark in the parking area of the court cross the street. Not an effort to complain for walking to the venue from the parking area.”

“The Indian omelette is worth visiting this restaurant for. The interior is a vibe with a blend of Indian and chic colours, pictures and plants. The service is always extremely helpful and you're always greeted with a smile! Would recommend the green coriander chutney with the Indian omelette too, possibly one of my fave things to get here. The sweet breakfasts are also yummy with the ability to change my order easily (lactose allergy but I wanted to try a range of flavours) and the pancakes look great. I've had a range of things off the menu and would certainly take visitors with me when returning.”

“What a place! Lovely, friendly, knowledgeable staff. The most delicious food and a comfy place to sit and be The 5 Spice Dark & Stormy is worth a visit alone Get yourself booked in!”

“Really lovely, reasonably priced food. Friendly staff and lovely cocktails too. Plenty to choose from. My second visit and will 100% be back again,”

“I visited SW with 2 girlfriends this week. They have a new Chef - Luke and a new menu. The best restaurant meal I have had in Chester it was delicious. Great menu - I started with steak tartare followed by the monkfish in lobster sauce. All beautifully prepared and presented the flavours were perfection. The staff were wonderful. Attentive without being intrusive. We had a fantastic evening. Would highly recommend.”

“We went for my husband's birthday and had the set lunch menu. The food was incredible, the featherblade beef wow! Lunch menu was great value for money and we really enjoyed the whole experience.”

“This was our first visit for my birthday. It's a lovely stone cottage on Heswall main street, yet set back off the road. There are outside tables too, though, for when the weather is nice. The staff were welcoming and helpful and we could see the chefs in action and all was calm and clean in there. The food was well presented, different and very tasty. The portions were a nice size - not too big, which I can't stand. I want to enjoy, not gorge.”

“Had such a lovely lunch here today. Great value for money, fabulous food, lovely warm and welcoming service. We will definitely back!”

“Tonight was our second visit, and the food was amazing not one fault! Great portions for really reasonable price. Fast service and the owner was absolutely lovely! Will definetely be back”

“We went for brunch on a quiet Monday morning. The Naughty Badger is hidden away up a staircase which leads to a small room, seating probably about 20 or so customers. We decided on The Naughty Badger as it's rated highly on local reviews, I'm going to be adding to this trend here. We were seated quickly and our coffees came even quicker, two lattes in latte glasses (not the biggest fan of them as they're more awkward to hold than cups) were brought to us at perfect drinking temperature, whoever was behind the coffee machine knew what they were doing. A rich, slightly nutty tasting coffee with a small foam top. For food, as always, I went with Eggs Benedict. At Badger, Eggs Benedict is two poached eggs atop a slice of sourdough, bacon and a paprika (I think) seasoning. The eggs were perfectly poached and rather large, with golden runny yolks. The hollandaise wasn't overwhelming, with a lemony/citrus tang to it. Three rashers of salty bacon, cooked with a crispy rind and a soft centre. My only criticism was that of the sourdough, it was thickly cut which made eating it a pain, literally. Thankfully it was only thicker on one end. Sourdough is rapidly falling off my favourite bread list with Eggs Benedict as the crust is often really hard when toasted which kind of fumbles the experience and doesn't go with how smooth the food should be. At Badger though, the bread itself was soft and lightly toasted, perfectly tearing apart as you cut into it. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience at The Naughty Badger. the music wasn't for me, gave me uni vibes circa 2012 (which put it to 4 for atmosphere). But my partner loved it and vibed along. I'd definitely be looking to return should I be in Chester again. This place is well worth your time and money.”

“The food is superb, it takes time to receive it as it is all cooked from fresh - well worth the short wait. Lou, Gemma and Claire are all lovely and welcoming. Our new "go to" for breakfast or lunch. We haven't tried evenings here - yet.”

“Great little upbeat cafe no problem catering for gluten free or veggie breakfast whilst on holiday. Excellent coffee too @groundhoylake”

“This is a charming small cafe - the chef is right there at the centre of things, and it's wonderful (and perhaps comforting) to see fresh ingredients laid out in the open. Pictured are the special breakfast tacos, which tasted as good as they look. The blue corn tacos add an extra dimension to the flavour and the dish was well executed. The menu is light bites and quite 'brunchy' which is no bad thing for this style of place If you can't eat eggs and don't like avocado you might find the menu a bit restricted as one or the other feature in most dishes. It's a touch of the main strips in the area, but for sure, it's worth the effort to seek this place out.”

“amazing food; came out very quickly and is absolutely wonderful for the cheap price!! it is also authentic italian food, made by italian chefs, which made the experience much better for us. the staff are also very friendly! would recommend!!”

“Extremely welcoming staff, beautiful interior, food ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Some delicious healthy options, full English breakfasts (&doorstep toast!) are the best by far! Definitely worth a visit!”

“Great café! Everything was delicious, the atmosphere was lovely, and the staff were friendly. A nice place to enjoy a relaxing breakfast or lunch.”

“Lovely lunch with family, food delicious and Lorenzo is very friendly :) Fantastic Italian tapas”

“Great atmosphere, friendly attentive staff and a great selection of food and drinks. It feels authentic, you could be in a tapas bar in Spain or Morocco. A great little gem in Mold.”

“Went in for a coffee and ended up ordering food as it looked great and tasted better!”

“Absolute gem of a cafe in Wigan. Nice selection of simple but tasty homecooked food. Big breakfast was plenty big enough, really good value and the vegan wraps was tasty and incredibly reasonably priced. The lady serving was lovely and friendly. If I lived nearby I'd definitely be going there again!”

“Amazing food great staff nice cosy restaurant Service is brilliant Take away always comes quick definitely recommend”
