  “Really loved this place, I think the atmosphere was great and the food looked exquisite, I had a great birthday. I especially loved how you could buy all the pictures on the wall of chairs, how did they even take those!? The only way I could imagine ever getting a picture like that for myself is to purchase those images off of the wall. However, whilst I was enjoying my food, there was this strange smell reminiscent of fungi emanating next to me. This soiled my eating experience. Im not sure what caused it but if the refreshment rooms could please address this and maybe thoroughly sanitise the seats(you really should) i think this could be a 5 star review.”

  “We enjoyed the food, the steak and ale pie and the coca cola ribs were especially good, but the desserts were a bit of a letdown. The place was quite busy and a little noisy, one of the staff kept dropping things, this was quite annoying, in the two hours that we were there she dropped things at least a half dozen times. Speaking of staff there was one in particular that was so miserable, almost to the point of being rude, just brought drinks and banged them down on the table without saying a word. One complaint that I would have is the cutlery was dirty, we asked for changes to a few knifes and spoons due to them not being clean, but the replacement wasn't much better. Overall the starters and the mains were good, the desserts I will skip next time and I would hope that they pay more attention to the cleanliness of the cutlery.”

  “Amazing Gastro Bar and Restaurant. The finest dining experience that I know of in the area, the Service is quick polite and friendly. Cask ales and craft Beers. A beautiful back a front beer garden that does stone baked pizzas on the weekend. One couldn't ask for anymore. Further more a wide range of entertainment such as Morris dancing 🕺 😅. Reassuringly expensive! However in this case worth every penny.”

  “We had a fantastic time dining here. Every dish was prepared with real care and presented beautifully. The highlight was definitely the taco platter, which was served with such vibrant, fresh garnishes. The mussel pot was equally impressive and cooked perfectly. Everything we tasted was delicious. We will certainly be back again soon.”

  “My partner, family and I recently visited for a catch-up meal, and after an 8-year gap, we realised we were well overdue a return visit. From the moment we arrived, the service was excellent. We were seated at Table 47 and looked after by three lovely members of staff – Holly D, Chloe, and a third lady whose name unfortunately escapes me. With my surname and table number, I'm sure you'll be able to identify her. The service throughout was efficient, friendly and attentive. Drinks were checked regularly and topped up promptly, which was greatly appreciated. The food was absolutely delicious, and everyone in our group commented on how much they enjoyed their meals. We were seated in the new extension, which is a fantastic addition and provided a lovely setting for our meal. I would particularly like to praise the staff for their warm, friendly and personable approach. Great customer service, delivered with a smile, a sense of humour and genuine friendliness, really makes all the difference and adds so much to the overall experience. Thank you to everyone involved. We're very glad we chose The Refreshment Rooms for our family get-together and will certainly be returning. I would have no hesitation in highly recommending to others.”

  “Wow! Such a quaint little place, lots of character, the waiting staff were friendly and the food ordered came very quickly and tasted delicious! What more could you ask for. Not the easiest place to get to but it is right next to Rock Ferry slipway so you could combine it on a nice day out, watch the river Mersey and admire any boots that float by. Would definitely recommend this obvious gem 💎”

  “Situated in a beautiful location, the Refreshment Rooms offers an incredible atmosphere, with several distinct dining rooms decorated with authentic historical pieces. They also have an excellent gluten-free selection. Every item we ordered was delicious and far exceeded expectations for a standard pub meal, regardless of dietary requirements. The service was warm and welcoming despite our last-minute arrival, and we were made to feel well looked after — including our baby. Casual yet memorable, fairly priced, and absolutely delicious.”

  “Have been to this fantastic restaurant a couple of times now and visited again this evening. It has a really good, varied menu and the food is way better than the standard pub type prices charged. Miles better than restaurants costing far more, with a great atmosphere, lovely surroundings and brilliant service.”
