Customer Review Summary
Reviewers return most for the full English breakfast, with one calling it a full English with two of everything and a refilled tea or coffee, and others describing the breakfasts as great and the sausages as so nice. Close behind are a bacon on toast that one diner's father called a proper bacon butty and a BLT, along with coffee described as bang on. Friendly, warm staff come up repeatedly, including one who gave directions to a church for visitors in town for a funeral, and several praise the value and fast service. The complaints are serious but isolated. One reviewer says a takeaway breakfast arrived with a stench of stale milk and mushrooms that tasted like vomit, and another says staff offered a cold sandwich instead of cooking an all day breakfast in the early afternoon. One reviewer also mentions a school kids morning offer of a free hot chocolate for a small spend.

“If you are looking for a welcoming, spotless, and genuinely community-minded spot in Liverpool, look no further than Bernie's Cafe at 8 Glovers Brow (L32 2AE). This lovely little venue has quickly become a standout favorite, and it deserves all the praise it gets. From the absolute moment you walk through the door, you are greeted by some of the friendliest staff you could ever hope to meet. They genuinely care about their customers, always serving you with a massive smile and a warm, chatty attitude that makes you feel right at home. Cleanliness & Accessibility One of the first things you notice about the cafe is how incredibly clean and well-maintained everything is. The seating area, counters, and facilities are kept absolutely immaculate, which makes dining here a thoroughly comfortable and reassuring experience. On top of that, it is fully wheelchair friendly with smooth, accessible navigation, ensuring absolutely everyone in the community can come in and enjoy a great meal without any hassle. Fantastic Value & Family Perks The menu offers brilliant variety and value. As you can see from the menu they have a great selection of specialty teas, coffees, and flavored syrups (with flavored shots for just 30p), alongside hearty options like burgers starting from just £4.00 on their Daily Board. What really stands out, though, is how incredibly supportive they are of local families. They run a fantastic "School kids morning offer" where if the kids spend just £1.00, they get a FREE Hot Chocolate! It is such a thoughtful, generous touch that makes a massive difference for parents and kids during the morning rush. Whether you're popping in for a morning coffee, grabbing a bite with the family, or looking for a comfortable, accessible spot to relax, Bernie's Cafe delivers on every front. Highly recommended!”
