Almost Famous Liverpool in Liverpool

Liverpool burger is the best option

I used to like almost famous. On our last visit we saw that all the beef and chicken is now halal. That makes this place a hard pass, funny thing is I bet they think theyre the good guys now serving all their uninformed customers halal food. Avoid.

If you’ve ever watched The Menu, you’ll know that you’ll be left with a serious hankering for a Real Hamburger. And so it was on this day, that I had watched that particular clip on Reddit and for the love of me, could not get it out of my system. Desperate to scratch that culinary itch, I whipped out Google Maps to look at the nearest burger joint to Rodney Street. Having sampled their wares in Manchester, I knew I could rely on Almost Famous. Read my review about their Tandoori Fusion burger to know more. Lovely vibe and dare I say it, I kind of prefer the Scouse version in terms of indoor space to their Mancunian outlets. The Butter Blood & Blue, surprised me. I’m used to overpowering Blue Cream cheese whalloping my taste buds, but this one showed restraint and allowed me to savour the strips of steak. Steak in a burger, who’d’ve thought it. Having opted out of sides, I checked out the chicken offerings. Suffice it to say that the Hot AF should be treated like a beautiful woman in a hot red dress and treated with respect but enjoyed at the same time. While miles better than anything the Colonel could whip up, it could not match the chicken offering from Burgerism. So stick to the beef patties. The solo server, Sarah, was wonderful. Her enthusiasm for the menu and recommendations so remember to tip well if you meet her. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ll be going back to watching Ralph Fienes and Anya Taylor Johnson in slow motion. For research purposes of course.

Nice food, reasonably priced , good service too

Solid burger option from a franchise who has been around for a long time. Ticks all the boxes, but perhaps doesn't have the wow factor it once had.

Should be called "should be famous". Great food!! Big portions! I ordered way too much by accident!

Visited for a family meal after shopping. Balanced atmosphere fitting the venue. Large portions- 3 sides were enough for 5 of us. Burgers were all unique and tasty. We would visit again.

Great service burgers stunning would highly recommend.

If you're after a burger that delivers on flavor without the frills, Almost Famous in Liverpool is your go-to. Known for their Big Beautiful Burgers, this place is a true standout in the city's food scene. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel like you’re about to dive into a burger experience unlike any other. Venue Located at 11-13 Parr Street, Liverpool, L1 4JN, Almost Famous sets the stage with an eclectic, no-nonsense vibe. The decor is full of personality – a great mix of quirky and fun – making it a destination for anyone craving a proper burger in a laid-back, energetic setting. It’s definitely a spot where the vibe matches the food: unapologetically bold and delicious. Atmosphere The atmosphere here is lively and casual, perfect for a relaxed hangout with friends or a night out on the town. Whether it's buzzing with excitement or offering a more laid-back experience, it’s always welcoming. The staff are friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable about the menu, making sure you get your meal exactly how you want it. Service Service is spot on – quick, friendly, and always attentive. The staff are well-versed in the menu and will happily recommend options if you're unsure. They don’t miss a beat, keeping everything moving smoothly even when the place gets busy. It’s the kind of service that just makes the meal feel even better. Food Now, let’s talk about the food. The burgers are the heart of this place, and they’ve got it down to an art. I’m a huge fan of the River Phoenix burger – it’s got the perfect balance of juicy, flavorful meat and tasty toppings. I’ve even started putting Frazzles on my own burgers at home for that extra crunch, a little tip I picked up from them. One thing I’ve learned over the years is the trick to tackling these burgers: cut it in half, and attack it one half at a time. Trust me – it makes all the difference. And the chips? The mix of regular fries and sweet potato fries is a masterstroke, breaking up the sweetness with the classic savory flavor. If you’ve only had sweet potato fries on their own, you’ll understand what I mean. There was a time when the trend was all about extravagant, over-the-top burgers, but I think Almost Famous nails the new wave: a solid, tasty burger without the gimmicks. That said, on those rare occasions when you’re feeling like going the extra mile, this is the place to hit up. Conclusion Almost Famous is the place to go when you want a good, solid burger in a fun and relaxed setting. It’s not just about the food – it’s about enjoying a damn good burger and having a great time while you’re at it. Whether you're a local or just visiting Liverpool, this spot should definitely be on your list.

I’ve been coming to Almost Famous for years, and it’s still my go-to spot for a serious burger. The River Phoenix is my all-time favourite – I’ve even started putting Frazzles on my burgers at home now, that crunch is unbeatable. The trick with their burgers? Cut it in half, and attack it one half at a time. Trust me, it makes all the difference. And the chips? The combo of regular and sweet potato fries is a genius move, as it breaks up the richness of the meal and stops it from feeling too heavy. While there’s a lot of places pushing extravagant toppings and gimmicks these days, Almost Famous nails the balance of a solid, no-nonsense burger. But when you want that next level of indulgence, this is where you come for that something extra. It’s one of those places where the quality hasn’t dropped in years. Definitely a must-visit if you want the best burger experience in Liverpool.

Vegan burger options are tasty. Great service and choice of drinks

Millie H, made our day out of honest. We were at AF for our xmas catch up, and take advantage of the bottomless brunch. She look after us all exceptionally well, and is a credit to this place. Honestly, she made it ace by looking after a gang of oldies, trying to relive ur youth. cheers and happy xmas

Food was overpriced for basic ingredients in my opinion

Probably the best burgers in Liverpool city centre! Decided to eat here last minute and the staff found us a table despite being really busy! Great, attentive service and delicious food

One of the best burgers in Liverpool. Good value sides which we always share as they are quite big. Good selection of drinks and the decor is very cool.

Great burger, chips, pint and service! In Liverpool for the day and checked this place out! I’d definitely come back, the fella serving us was very sound!

Wicked restaurant with a great vibe, good priced and tasty food and spot on service as well. Music can be a touch to loud as shouting to the person across the table to talk is abit much but still. Recommend place to eat and been back a few times. Thanks all that work there.

Food is OK, but overpriced. Severved in a plastic tray, so looked more like a takeaway. Burgers don't come with chips, that's separate, so an average burger with chips is £20+ beer £6, wine £7, cocktail £9 = £30 (approx) per person The one thing I absolutely detest though is the service charge added to the bill. If you ask for it to be removed, it takes the fizz out of the being taken out. We don't mind paying tips, but it's like captive audience scenario. My daughter paid, as it was my birthday. But she's at college, so you can guess the rest. Would have been nicer to be asked first. It's a big shame as I've been looking forward to go there for some time.

Charlotte era increíble! Ella se aseguró de que nuestra comida estaba bien y también se aseguró de que yo estaba al tanto del problema de las niñas (discretamente)! No puedo agradecerle lo suficiente tan amable y cariñosa🩷🩷👏

Fantastic food and great service from the very hardworking waitress/bartender/front of house who was very polite and very helpful whilst working solo. I arrived around midday on Monday(4/11/24), I had the HQ burger, bacon bacon fries with a refreshing strawberry milkshake all of which tasted great and I could tell all of it was made with fresh ingredients and care, I finished my visit off with two beautifully made vanilla mai tai's which were a perfect end to my visit.... I'll be going back to explore the menu further in the future!

Amazing. Me and a friend travel to Liverpool semi regularly for the football and this has become our go to spot. Is definitely on the higher end in terms of cost, but it is worth it. We have introduced a few other friends to it as well, all of which have the same opinion. Wish there was one more local for us!

Unreal food, proper dirty burgers

Almost Famous siempre fue mi hamburguesería favorita mientras crecía. Todavía es bastante bueno y me gustó mucho visitar recientemente. Hamburguesas sucias a precios razonables. Me encantó el ambiente y el personal era amable como siempre. La única crítica sería que desearía que las hamburguesas fueran un poco más grandes. Más carne, menos guarniciones digo.

Booked For 17 people For a birthday today and service was brilliant food was amazing all came Together no mistakes all hot and lovely food and drinks.

A brilliant place to have work meetings, clean and tidy and very professionally run by the team. They also offer probably the best Burger in Liverpool :) Great location for work and play !

5* beautiful food and great service! We visited in half term, the children’s deal was fantastic £5 for Cheeseburger, fries, a Fanta and a Oreo Sandwich absolute bargain! Me and my husband went for the Juicy Double burger, bacon bacon fries and pig & waffle fries and they were absolutely amazing, plenty of sauce and toppings! Will definitely be back great value for money!

Excellent service, excellent food.

Amazing probably the best burger I have had, this is Liverpool is a great burger, great service, brilliant atmosphere, definitely be back

One of the best burgers I've had 🍔👍

Hasn't changed in years, still delivering an absolutely delicious mess. Gotten to a point now where i'm that fat I can finish a burger and fries. They're heavy. Somehow managing to be dripping with filthy goodness and yet retain some integrity so you can actually pick the thing up and eat it. Witchcraft. Kills me to say it as a Scouser, still prefer the original NQ venue but the food here is heavier.

Chicken burger was overcooked and barely warm. Dry and like leather around the edges.

I called in on Thursday just after 1200 opening time; ordered a "This is Liverpool" Burger; washed down with a Vanilla Milkshake. Both the Burger and Milkshake hit the spot - quantity and flavours in good supply - will definitely visit again.

Ungt, kult og spennende lokale. Burgerne og de ulike typene fries falt veldig i smak. Vi var fra 13 til 55 år og alle var veldig fornøyde! Vi kommer gjerne igjen hit!

Boss burgers, and their Hot AF tenders rock.

We thought it was great when we arrived until our burger got to our table and the beef was pink, I know you can eat steak pink but burgers should be cooked thoroughly, we now have a house full of upset stomachs, not what you expect when spending £50 for 2 burgers and 2 cocktails

Food nice but always arrives just warm enough to not be bothered complaining

Best burgers in town! We visited Liverpool and were impressed by the taste. Also the vegetraian option was great! Big recommendation if you want a burger with great taste.

This is the place to go for bottomless brunch the service was amazing food was really good and the drinks just kept coming within the first 15 minutes we had 4 drinks each when it came for our last order of drinks we said we couldn’t drink any more then Kaitlin came out with some fun shots for us all which we all loved I have been to so many places for bottomless brunch but this place is by far the best just looked on our bill 56 drinks for 6 people in an hour an half we are definitely coming here again. the staff are amazing here too.

Visited here last time we were in Liverpool and must say it was a highlight of the trip. Delicious cocktails and amazing food but unfortunately the prices have been increased quite a bit since we last visited in November 2023 which did put a slight dampner on the meal. We got the Hot Af Blasts and Pig & Waffle Fries for dinner and cherry bomb cocktails.

Music blaring, not good for conversation. Food lovely as always.

Food was next level,our server katelynn was so polite and attentive,music vibe and the staff were amazing definitely recommend.

Not your average burgers,best cocktails hands down katelynn was our server helped with some great suggestions thank you.

Bottomless brunch today was amazing. Food and drinks lovely, great service from Millie <3

It is an absolutely monstrosity the way my friend's personal belongings were handled due to a simple mistake at Almost Famous Liverpool. My friend is neurodiverse, and, as a society we must ensure equality and diversity is taken into consideration on a consistent basis. It is evident that it wasn't within this restaurant due to a simple mistake. My friend is very forgetful due to being neurodiverse and innocently forgot to pay for his food before leaving the restaurant yesterday. He had accidentally left his debit card at the restaurant upon leaving the building. Once my friend realised that he hadn't paid, he panicked and returned to the restaurant to pay immediately. Upon arrival, a manager communicated with him to inform him, quite rudely, that they had cut up his card and stated that if a customer doesn't return back within the hour, it is 'company policy' to 'cut up' somebodies debit card. Now, my friend was understandably shocked and taken back by this inconvenience and asked to see the card, to which it was in the bin. There was no apology whatsoever from the manager. This has had an impact on my friend and he has now had to order a new card due to a stranger destroying one of his belongings - this is extremely concerning. I am alarmed by this reaction, as there should be an element of comfort and safety when you leave your home to dine out somewhere. However, this has concluded in destroying one of my friend's belongings, which was a simple mistake. I must query as to why, rather than cutting up the card, my friend wasn't contacted by phone or email. I will never in my life be eating at Almost Famous myself, after being informed about this experience. This is very, very poor and I would like to see this supposed 'policy' please. Be aware, folks.

Wow ! What an amazing venue , the food , the staff and the atmosphere went beyond our expectations! Our server Mat went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, thank you ! We will be back , and I will definitely be recommending this place to friends and family ! This venue added to our fantastic weekend away in Liverpool ! 10/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ p.s the phenolic burger and boss chips were delicious !

I am shocked and horrified by the actions of the manager who cut up my card, citing company policy after just one hour because I forgot to pay. It was a genuine mistake that we forgot to pay. The allegations made by the staff at this restaurant are appalling. To accuse me of using a stolen card and intentionally walking out without paying is deeply upsetting. Mistakes happen, and it’s important to recognize that some individuals have neurodiverse conditions that can lead to forgetting tasks. When you're reconnecting with a friend you haven't seen in ages, it's easy to become absorbed in the moment and lose track of time. I am disgusted by the manager's decision to cut up my card and their ill-mannered attitude. This behavior is completely unacceptable. They have left me in distress with no card now.

Incredible place to eat, bottomless brunch was unreal catrin on the bar especially was an amazing member of staff, 1000000% recommend when in Liverpool

Bottomless was amazing, had an amazing time, great value for money service was incredible and staff dealt really well with allergies. Would go back again

Food was amazing on the bottomless brunch with great service by our server Millie who kept our drinks coming!! Thanks for the best service and great food!

Experienced a rude manager who has no management skills or people skills. Will not be returning and recommend going elsewhere to more fabulous places within Liverpool

We really enjoyed the food and service. Liverpool burger was fab!

First time for me. Some of the family had been before and said good things. But... wow. The atmosphere was really cool. Takes were set really well, so they were not too close to each other. The service from Millily was great. Perfect attention, not too much, and not too little. The food is stunning and huge in portions. We all had our own burger choice, with some customising the extra bits. We had all sides to share, and they were all so flavoursome and big. All the food was hot and it all came out together. Will definitely be going back.

Walked in for a table of four. Seated quickly which was great, then no service for 20 minutes so left. This was at 3pm in the afternoon on 3/8.

Brilliant bottomless brunch....our hostess Kailtlin was an amazing hostess that kept the drinks flowing....our food was hot and tasted amazing!' Definitely recommend here if you're looking for a fab brunch with fab drinks and food!

One of the best burgers I've ever had 😋

Favourite place in the world to eat

Second visit to Almost Famous, first time in Manchester, 2nd in Liverpool

Great hidden place to get food. Well worth a visit

Kaitlen really looked after us tonight. My wife and I brought our children to surprise about our summer holiday to NYC, props and cakes were brought out at the end and we can’t thank Kaitlen enough , the food was on another level, after here we have decided that this is the ONLY place you can eat a burger, everything else is just insignificant!!

Maybe the best hamburger I've ever eaten. Good atmosphere. Completed.

Decent place good bottomless deals decent burgers and good drinks

Do you like bacon? Do you like bacon crisps? Do you love frazzels? There's a phoenix burger for u! Never had such a bacony burger in my life. Shake was great and the boss fries were amazing, pretty spot on. Gotta admit I got meat sweats after. Shake was a bit overflowing but maybe wasn't fast enough, good selection of alcoholic drinks too Staff are friendly and helpful. Attentive and always about Music was good selection Funnily enough Japanese city pop was played too. Anyways great place to dine and have a hearty burger. Paid £26.30 little pricy but worth it.

Bacon bacon fries were fantastic. Service was excellent.

The Liverpool special burger was delicious and so were the bacon fries - they certainly didn't skimp on the bacon like a lot of places do. Service was friendly and fast.

The atmosphere in the resturant is amazing, it a very relaxed casual place. The servers are great and very attentive to your needs. The food was absolutly amazing and for the price the protion sizes were massive. The burgers had so much flavour, were juicy and the frinks were great. I had the Awesome HQ Burger which was full of flavour. Its is a very good place to go on a date or for food without going somewhere were you have to dress up smart or fancy.

The burgers were decent but not worth the price. Fries were nice.

Had a great experience here last weekend. We had a large group of 18 and we went for the bottomless brunch. The staff were excellent and took really good care of us making sure our drink were topped up and everyone was happy. Food was all perfect and couldn't have been better. Highly recommend for a hen or stag or large group. Thank you to all the staff. It's not always easy with a group that size and couldn't have asked for more

Super cool place!! Food was great and the service was super friendly and quick. Decor was fun. Cocktails were amazing, really different and so well presented. Recommend.

Just fad staff great food just brill every thing great stuff and great just great great people fab great places great good

Great service food excellent and drinks kept flowing had a great time meeting up with the lads of which we've been best friends for 45 + definitely come back here

Did bottomless brunch. Food was amazing. Service was excellent and will definitely come back in the future

really quick service, the server Bryce was really polite and helpful when we had any questions and wanted to alter some things when ordering. The food was lovely also, i’m not very fond of trying new things but so glad i did as the “kids in america” burger was amazing! would definitely recommend :)

Food was Amazing, Music is just banger after banger, service is good

Kaitlyn was amazing! Such great service, had an amazing hen do having bottomless brunch!

Fantastic experience at Almost Famous. Kaitlin was so attentive throughout the whole meal. Would 110% recommend!

Fantastic service provided for our big hen group, Caitlin is great! Amazing vegetarian/vegan options, would recommend!

Kaitlin was incredible. Bottleless brunch made famous by herrrrr!

Great meal, great company and great waitress Kaitlin was awesome ☺️ would definitely recommend for a hen do!!!!!!!!!!

The word Non Stop food on their menu does NOT mean unlimited food. very misleading for the price you pay. Very disappointing.

Nice vibes with a great service… The burger is super delicious.. Amazing wings and fries

Please I am begging you buy better kitchen roll, 90% of your burgers end up dripping all over the table and your solution is to buy the thinnest tiniest kitchen roll for the tables? Do better x

Overall amazing food, not good for coeliac or allergies!! food is 10/10 but service lets it down a bit

The food was cold however the manager ensured we were given some new chips which were piping hot alongside a free round. Other than being cold the food was exceptional and the service was brilliant. Will come again 11/10

Go to place for us when we go to liverpool. Great food.

We initally wanted to go to another place for late lunch but sacked it off and came across this little gem of a restraunt. Good atmosphere in there mysoc playing busy enough. We got the loaded fries to share were to die for, got the liverpool special burger and a biscoff milkshake. Not had a burger like that in a long time full of flavour and the beef was so tasty 10/10. Mrs got another burger and she doesn't tend to eat much but she ate everything 🤣 We will definitely be coming back sooner rather than later, 10/10 for service by all staff too, even charged my phone for me 👌👌

A* Burgers 🍔 and loaded fries. Well worth a visit if you're hungry, and love Burgers!!! Great feel inside, can't really comment on atmosphere, as we went quite late and only a few in. I can imagine most lunchtimes it buzzing with people!!! Definitely will be paying "Almost Famous" another visit next time we've in Liverpool.

It was quiet when we went, but to be honest, it made it nice to be able to chill with my friend while we ate and chatted. Without pressure of people waiting for a table.

Bottomless brunch with the girls....food was exceptional and service was amazing staff where over to re fill drinks promptly and served them quickly and always with a smile definitely worth the money

This place is my favorite whenever I'm in Liverpool. I started with the pho-king (hot teriyaki) wings, and seriously, it's the best teriyaki sauce I've ever had. The only downside is the wings are pretty small. I got the Phoenix burger and Phoenix fries next. The flavors are off the charts, with every bite tasting different. You get the heat from the red chilis, the sweetness from the JD maple glaze, smokiness from the bacon, and the crunch from the shoestring onions and frazzle dust. The three different sauces and all the ingredients just blend perfectly. You can tell they've really nailed the flavor combos. The burger patties are delicious and smashed just right. I always make a point to come to AF when I'm in Liverpool because the food is amazing.

I’ve been a frequent customer of Almost Famous for years at this point (it’s my go-to birthday spot!). I love the food there, so when they started Bottomless Brunch I was there for one of the first weekends it was offered. I’ve attended for 3 bottomless brunches since the offer was introduced. Previously, it was great value for money, you would receive Mac and cheese balls & chicken wings (to share), one burger and one fries per person, as well as unlimited alcoholic/soft drinks in a 90 minute period. It seems that AF have made some changes since the inception of the offer, since during this visit I noticed that they’ve actually removed the Mac and cheese balls and the number of wings you receive has been reduced significantly. To top this off, the cocktails on offer are no longer garnished, and compared to my previous visits they seem considerably weaker alcohol-wise (I drank more of these cocktails today than I ever have in the previous two visits and barely feel tipsy). Granted, the staff are on the ball with getting you additional rounds of drinks, but honestly it doesn’t really matter if the drinks on offer are using smaller measures. Overall the quality has diminished and the offering value has been reduced, but the price they charge has remained the same - this is the main issue. All in all it was a let down of a visit this time. It seems that AF realised their BB offer was a bit too lucrative and have silently made some changes to cut costs. For this reason, I can’t really recommend paying £40 for a bottomless brunch at AF. I’d recommend going elsewhere. The only saving grace is that their food is great - but my birthday experience was soured by their ‘tightening of the purse strings’. A final note: AF have seemingly started automatically adding a service charge to bills. The wait staff pointed it out on the bill, but in my opinion it's a predatory tactic which puts those who may suffer from a bit of social anxiety in an awkward position. Service charges/tips should be voluntarily offered by the customer for good service rather than automatically added, forcing the customer to ask for it to be removed. I don't recall this being a thing when I last visited, but I could be wrong on that!

Delicious food, best burger I've had, the boss chips were amazing!

The food is excellent however the service was incredibly poor. Attending on a Sunday, we walked up and asked for a table or to book and I was sent away. I then was able to book online turned up and was given a significant amount of attitude due to having a table of 7, the resturant was empty. Food was just thrown on the table and the item was not explaned leaving us having to work out whose food was who. When paying we excluded the service charge due to the comments made by staff and further attitude was provided. Huge shame given how nice the food was, Manchester was much better.

A very nice surprise Modern and refresing decoration was already a nice surprise when we arrived, but the best of all was the quality of the burgers. An interesting choice of very unconventional burgers that were delicious !

Me and my pals , all went to uni in liverpool and fancied a rekindle , we were skeptical as to how this would go as bottomless brunch was new here. That being said , we had the most fantastic time , the service made us feel like we were at home again , every essence of the life of living in Liverpool was brought back to our days. Needless to say , this place and specifically the bartender , I think her name was Catrin (I’m not sure how to spell it) really made us feel like we were young again , her energy , her charisma and especially her dance moves were exceptional, she is fantastic , she kept the vibe alive and I couldn’t request anymore. The food was great , the vibe was amazing , and the service . Where should I start and where should I end ? I couldn’t tell but if you want to know … request Catrin . She is magnificent !!! Thankyou for the best reunion and Saturday we could have prayed for !!!

I really enjoyed the boss chips and chicken blasts. The cocktails are also amazing! Would recommend.

Got a delivery... Now I've been going to five guys to which I thought was pretty expensive and fancied a change. Wanted to try this for some time and finally gave it a go, and I didn't regret it. Fantastic food, at a good price. I got their big hQ burger and it was packed, double party, double halloumi, double chicken... And a box of bacon fries Incredible feast! I'm also pretty obsessed with the awesome looking packaging it comes in!

I had the best burger I've ever tasted. Service was great too, and the cocktail was super. Definitely coming back

Was a little bit disorder food was very small portions

Staff were nice, food not really worth it for price compared to other places
