About Core Coffee & Kitchen

On Tarleton St in Liverpool, Core Coffee & Kitchen is a cafe serving all-day breakfasts, brunch and lunch alongside a deli counter for quick bites. The cappuccino comes topped with real chocolate shavings rather than cocoa powder, and the chai latte is sourced locally and made in house. The kitchen runs a menu of gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan meals, with GF oat milk available for lattes, and mushrooms on toast can be ordered with halloumi. A cruffin pastry and a pork belly bun sit alongside these on the counter. A separate kids' menu runs alongside the adult one. The cafe operates on a walk-in basis, with no reservations taken.

Customer Review Summary

Friendly staff come up in nearly every review, with reviewers describing servers who check in on tables, share their own favourites from the menu and treat visitors like long lost family. The chai latte is the most repeated drink, and one reviewer says they were told it is sourced locally and made in house, better than the high street chains. Brunch plates are called delicious, hot and well presented, among them mushrooms on toast with halloumi and a pork belly bun. A gluten-free diner felt safe eating here and found GF oat milk for a latte, while others note the variety of gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan dishes and a kids' menu. Pastries get a mention too, including a huge, fresh cruffin, though that reviewer thought the cost of a pastry was inflated. One reviewer called an iced mango matcha the best drink they had ever had, and another noticed the cappuccino arrived topped with real chocolate shavings rather than cocoa powder.

    “So good! I loved my mushrooms on toast and felt totally safe eating gluten-free here. I had halloumi with this because I couldn’t resist and it paired perfectly. There was even GF oat milk so I had a latte. My server was super kind and shared all her favorites with me which helped me narrow down my decision. Definitely recommend.”
