About Sophia coffee and bistro
Sophia coffee and bistro is a bistro and coffee shop on E Prescot Rd in Liverpool, open for daytime service across the week except Tuesdays. The menu draws on brunch and coffee shop staples, with avocado toast with egg and a pistachio croissant alongside Caesar salad and waffles. On Sundays, the kitchen turns to a roast dinner with roast chicken. With six dishes on the menu, the format stays compact rather than sprawling. Dogs are welcome in the space, making it a straightforward stop for anyone walking one nearby. The mix of coffee shop and bistro service means the room works equally for a quick pastry and coffee or a seated plate later in the day.

“Hands down, the best burger I’ve had in a long time! The bun was perfectly toasted, the meat crispy and juicy, and the ingredients super fresh. The fries were just as amazing—golden, crispy, and cooked to perfection! 🍟🍔 The place is beautiful, extremely clean, and very welcoming. A huge shoutout to the staff and owners—such genuinely nice, polite, and attentive people. Highly recommended! I’ll definitely be back!”

“Absolutely brilliant. The staff, the ambience and the food were all superb. Comfortable seating, spotlessly clean, food that was obviously prepared freshly with no sign of shop bought anything. We will definitely be back xx”
