Auberge Brasserie in Sefton

First visit her but we had a great night out here and the food is fabulous. We all enjoyed ourselves and the staff are great. We will definitely be returning.

L’Auberge Restaurant – Seabank Road, Southport. Having previously booked a table by telephone we have just returned from enjoying an excellent lunch at L’Auberge restaurant in Southport. At lunchtime the restaurant offers choice of a la carte and fixed price menu options: £12 for 1 course, £15 for 2 courses or £17.50 for 3 courses. With the fixed price menu a choice of a bottle of white, rose or red wines is available at lunch time and early evening for £16. To drink we chose a bottle of the white wine, which was an excellent Pino Grigio and a jug of iced water. To eat we both chose the three course option and started with the soup of the day which was a spicy ham and vegetable. For the main course we both had the glazed ham with boiled potatoes and a selection of seasonal vegetables in a white sauce. For dessert we had a cherry bakewell served with cream and garnished with fresh fruit and a sticky toffee pudding. We finished off with 2 latte coffees. The total cost of the meal for two people was just under £57 for three courses including the wine and coffee. The restaurant is elegantly furnished and the quality of the service, the food and drinks was excellent and very good value for money. We would definitely recommend L’ Auberge restaurant and hopefully will be returning to it again soon.

We had dinner at the Auberge whilst staying in Southport. The food, service and ambiance were all excellent. I would definitely recommend.

Perfect spot, for catching up with friends or a romantic couples night , we went for lunch had a bottle of Prosecco and a Sunday lunch everything as usual was top notch , food Staff Live singers Can not fault the place - Definitely recommend

Auberge is really good again , Linda has done a great job in returning the Auberge back to an excellent and relaxed place to dine in Southport. Good food , well priced and a decent wine list .

I thought I would write this review as I felt it deserved it as I used to go to this restaurant before Covid and always had a excellent meal and excellent service but unfortunately it was taken over by new owners and it wasn’t up to previous standards but I heard that it had been taken back by the lovely Lynda and Russell the chef so we went yesterday for lunch and I honestly think the food was amazing and the service was excellent and well worth the money as it was 3 courses for £17.50 each so absolute bargain for such quality restaurant food ,so please give them your support and treat yourself to a lovely meal it will not disappoint .

A very pleasant restaurant in the heart of Southport. The food was outstanding and the atmosphere was great. French jazz being played in a French style restaurant (as opposed to the country music being played in the Italian restaurant the night before!). Knowledgable and friendly staff. Definitely worth the (slightly) higher than average prices. You get what you pay for.

This restaurant has been consistently good over the last 20 years we have been using it, It has recently been taken over by new management who are well known and very popular.. The restaurant has excellent and spacious dining and a well stocked bar. It also has outside dining at the front. It is well maintained and the toilets are immaculate. The service is friendly and efficient and food is to to die for, well served. The place is highly recommended

Visited on a Sunday evening and enjoyed the special deal on the roast dinner. The quality of the food was very good and value for money. The staff were friendly and attentive and it was well worth the visit.

Great lunch today, fab deal; 3 courses for two (good portions) & a bottle of wine £42 👍. Lovely staff & exceptionally clean. We’ll definitely return & recommend.

We went on the spur of the moment, and honestly, there’s no better way to spend a couple of hours on a rainy Saturday afternoon. We ate off the a la carte menu, although the lunch menu looked interesting too. The French Onion Soup, with croutons and Gruyère cheese was delicious without being too rich and Gravadlax salad as starters and then we both had the lamb main courses. These were so tasty and the gravy was full of flavour. The vegetables, specially the potatoes were excellent. The puddings were equally delicious and I couldn’t recommend The Auberge highly enough. The decor is classy and the welcome was warm. Such a great place!

First time here but definitely won't be the last , very good food at reasonable prices . Thank you guys !!! Sue ,Andrea and Graham Webster.

Wow wow wow. Visiting Southport and passed this amazing place. We had to sit outside as we had Albert our sproodle with us (not an issue as it was sunny) Fabberlos good food would definitely recommend. We had the mid week special offer (Wednesday) night excellent value for money

We had an early evening 3 course meal on a short break in early September. The choice, service and price were all excellent, we would thoroughly recommend the Auberge.

Lovely French restaurant with great menu including a great selection of wines, make sure you book as it can fill up quickly

I visited this evening with my partner and I we were not disappointed! The food was lovely we had steak and sea bass and they were both cooked to perfection. Would definitely recommend.

We were in Southport 6 weeks ago and loved this restaurant, we just had to go back. We weren't disappointed. I had the Seabass again it is just gorgeous. The staff are friendly and the restaurant is extremely clean. So we enjoyed our meal again.

Visited the Auberge with my husband. Came highly recommended by the B&B we were staying at but we thought it was just average. I think the disappointing thing was frozen chips!! At least serve homemade chips at a lovely restaurant. 19.95 for a very average bottle of pinot. Food was nice but nothing spectacular. I doubt we would go back or recommend

We went with friends for the Freddy Mercury show. Food was great wine was superb and brilliant service. The show was fantastic also. Can’t wait to return.

I asked my friend to pick a restaurant to go to for her birthday. Without hesitation she picked auberge. I can now see why. The restaurant was busy when we got there about 7 pm (Saturday). Although it was busy the service was good. We both had a starter and a main course which were delicious. I would highly recommend this restaurant if you’re ever in Southport.

Are here twice during my stay in Southport, the food was fist class. Best dish was a starter - wonderful king prawns with garlic butter that soaked into the garlic bread.Priced well also, about £20 for a starter and main or they do an early dinner menu (5.30-6.30 or all day on a Tuesday) £15 for 3 courses

Fantastic hidden gem situated next to Peaky Blinders and across from Bold hotel, food was tremendous, piping hot and tasty, nitvone fault from any of us, we took the set menu, 16.95 up until 18.30 hours, advise booking

Friendly service and pleasant atmosphere. The starters of chicken liver parfait and prawns were delicious. We felt that the whole meal, particularly the wine, was rather over priced. The choices of wine were not as good as expected given this was a French influenced restaurant. Overall though, a nice meal and worth a visit.

Lovely meal except for the friend who ordered chicken which was very hard as is cooked a few days ago certainly not before being served. Drinks prices a little high but disappointing to be charged £2 for a splash of soda we have all been effected by Covid don’t ruin reopening by these silly and unnecessary charges

On arrival we were pointed to our table not taken there. We sat for over 15 minutes with no acknowledgement. When someone finally cameover and we mentioned we’d been ignored we were told, ‘I thought someone else would have done it’ the bread rolls came out (just 2 white ones) I asked if they had brown and was told flat out - no! the starters arrived very quickly whIch is always worrying. Within 5 minutes of our starter plates being taken our main arrived! Even more worrying! We said we hadn’t had a break and the lady just repeated whose having the chicken and who’s on the pork. Then as we looked shocked she just put the plates down on our table.It’s very sad but can’t believe we’ve been made to feel like leper’s? Anyone can have a bad day but in this industry you should make people feel special as they’ve made an effort to come to your establishment and spend their hard earned money there

A first visit for me and my friend Pete and what a lovely friendly brassiere. The Mules off the specials board were really plump and tasty!

Enjoyed a midweek meal here . Auberge is situated adjacent to several quality bars and on a hot August evening their was a fabulous ambiance in the road with people sitting outside enjoying the sun.The food was excellent - I had steak with pepper corn sauce . Service was spot on . Love it that their house wine includes Richelieu Merlot as it’s a decent easy drinking red .I look forward to my next visit

Great restaurant, bit put off at first because of small range selection and not many things for vegetarians, but the food was lovely. Best carbonara I ever tasted! The staff were also very friendly and super nice service.

Conveniently situated just off southport's busy Lord street, Auberg is easy to find - just around the corner from the Bold Hotel. With a French theme, as the name implies, we did not find much in the way of a truly "French" menu; although the menu was varied, the food was good and the portions sensible. Service was polite and efficient.The Early Dine menu which offers a good choice of three courses, served most weekdays from 3.00pm is very good value. This can be accompanied by a most enjoyable bottle of red, white or rosé wine for £12.There are regular entertainment evenings, with piano jazz and theme nights , all of which ,we understand, are very popular and we would suggest that booking is essential.

Visited quite late Saturday evening. Very busy but accommodating a group of us. Served with drinks quickly but food took a while to be served, think they were short staffed as there only seemed to be 3 of them front of house. Food was ok and reasonably priced.

We came on this by chance just walking by. What a fantastic place. Excellent meal tonight, I would recommend you try it, lovely atmosphere

First time visit for a tribute evening, three course meal with tribute to Franki Valli and The Jersey Boys. Good varied choices on all 3 courses and very tasty. Throw in a full restaurant singinging along and dancing to the entertainment, party atmosphere and all the staff working hard in between. Bathrooms spotlessly clean. Singer first class. Highly recommended and for sure returning to future tribute nights, this one was £30per head. (meal and entertainment)

Called in for a quick coffee, first night of new Early Diner menuThree courses £15.00,decided to eat, absolutely superb food,Goats Cheese Salad.First time on the Menu Steak & Vegetable Pie served in a ceramic dish,Chips and Peas.Creme Brulee.What can I say, exceptional food at very reasonable price.Give it a try, you will not be disappointed.

Had a really pleasant evening. Friendly staff covid safe and food was cooked brilliantly will definitely be going back again

Been here a few times, mainly for the Tribute Nights with the 3 course meal etc. Always a brilliant night, with gorgeous, wonderful food, and really great tribute acts. The staff are so lovely and helpful.Beautiful restaurant, lovely atmosphere.Hopefully,we will be back in a few months time to see you all again for another tribute night.Thanks again everyone. Just brilliant!!Suzi & Brian,Staffordshire.

Very poor indeed, will not go here again. Ordered 4 mains, 2 came and had to wait for 5 mins for the next 2, the steak was ordered as raw and came back well done, sent it back and had to wait another 15mins. Bill came and nothing was altered so I had to bring it up with staff and the woman in charge was not for coming to am agreement with the bill. Advise not going here for food!!!

Went to Auberge last night for the first time in quite a few years and now under new management. The staff were attentive polite and efficient and the food was wonderful full of flavour and a delight. Nice selection of wines and we chose the Italian from the Puglia region having had lots of wine from that region. Highly recommend the place and it was buzzing for a Monday night which was great to see.

. My husband and I found this place just by chance and I'm so pleased we did. We went twice. The staff were lovely. The food was amazing. The sea bass was honestly the best meal I think I've ever had in a restaurant. Can't wait to return.

My friend and I had a lovely meal here. Atmosphere very calm and relaxing and felt totally safe. Ten out of ten for COVID safety. Food was absolutely delicious and the staff were professional and welcoming. This will be our go to restaurant on our next visit to Southport without a doubt.

Staff was lovely on arrival, me and the hubby ordered the same starter which was black pudding with a apple crisp , was rather disappointed 2 and a half tiny slithers off black pudding and a thin wedge of apple , my main was delicious I ordered fish of the day it was salmon with muscles (the best muscles I’ve ever tasted ) with potatoes. On the other hand my husband had sea bass with a mash potato, it was really salty and the portion was tiny.

Food was delicious staff attentive would definitely try again it's off the main road behind the peaky blinders bar outside searing aswell

Visited here a few days ago. We had been a few years ago and enjoyed it. Visited again meeting up with our son and daughter in law who live in London and we live in Scotland and we had not seen them in over a year. The food as before was delicious and could not be faulted. The service whilst efficient was lacking in any warmth - there was no interaction. Even when we were paying the Bill ( almost £200) and leaving a gatuity there was barely a thank you and no goodbye at the end. If there had been a touch of friendlieness in the service I would have given this 5 stars.

Had the pleasure of finding this lovely eaterie just off Lord St last week. Absolutely gorgeous food, which arrived within a reasonable time. I would definitely visit Auberge again and fully recommend it.

We turned up last Tuesday on a very busy evening without a reservation. We felt fortunate to be able to go in half an hour as there were 4 of us. We all enjoyed our food and the service was good. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this restaurant. And I would say booking recommended.

After a friend recommending this place I booked a table in the sun . Beautifully fronted property with a buzzing atmosphere . Well done to the new owners with your fabulous food choices and great choice of wines . First time we have eaten out after 3rd lockdown and we will be back .

First time visit fantastic staff very helpful. Food was delicious and hot. Loved the chocolate with the coffee ☺️ Will definitely be back.

As always, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to this consistently excellent restaurant. Despite Christmas Day bustle, the food was delicious and the service exemplary. We felt extremely safe as a result of the thoughtful COVID measures that were in place and the calm professionalism of the staff. Can’t wait until we’re allowed to return.

We've been going to Auberge for over 15 years and I can't believe I've only just thought about putting a review on here. I'm pretty sure in all those 15 years we have never had a bad meal. The menu changes constantly so always something different to try but always some old favourites on there. The set menus at lunch are exceptional value and kids at half price, usually around £7 for a 3 course meal is a no brainer. Russell and his team never fail to be welcoming even when very busy. Some of the staff have been there since before we started going and I think that's testament to the kind of place this is as usually hospitability has a high turnover of staff. Best restaurant in Southport for quality and value for money.

We hadn't eaten at the Auberge since it changed hands and when we went in for a mid week lunch the restaurant appeared to be less than 50% full. Our starters were ok but both main courses looked to have been thrown onto the plates with little or no concern for presentation. The service was so slow that a simple 2 course lunch took over 1 3/4 hours. The house wine is not available with the a la carte menu.

Delicious food,exelant staff,lovely atmosphere would definitely recommend to everyone and we will be back soon .

My family and I went to this restaurant for an evening meal on Sunday evening. Lovely atmosphere service and food. We felt safe and relaxed and festive. Thanks guys we needed that.

Excellent lunch food was outstanding such good value will be back soon can’t fault anything about the experience

Booked for Christmas Dinner at the weekend. Great place, great staff and fabulous food would definitely recommend!

Excellent food and service, would definitely come back again! You can tell all the ingredients are all very high quality!

Booked on recommendation of a friendOn arriving very relaxed and welcoming atmosphere,we had ordered 3 course dinner. i chose King Prawn & Crab Spring Rolll starter, Superb, overall the food was excellent value for money,add to that live music, when we visited, a very pleasant evening.Will certainly be visiting again in the near future.

Been in this place many times over the years most recently just this week and even given the current circumstances the staff were so helpful and grateful of us being there to support local businesses. Felt like the last time even though it has changed hands recently. Highly recommend anyone to visit.

Lovely restaurant with great staff and fantastic live music. Food and service was excellent. Great selection of food for all tastes.

Dined at Auberge last week, the service was amazing and the food was even better, restaurant was following all covid guidelines and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming.

Fantastic food and atmosphere, a great place to dine with a great range of drinks. The prices are also superb and the hospitality is a1.

Took the wife and children for a meal. Was one of the best experiences. Food was fantastic. 10/10. Very child friendly and a lovely Christmas atmosphere. Would fully recommend to everyone.

Had an absolute ball. Food was fantastic and the atmosphere was very Christmassy. I’m glad that we booked here for our works do and I would highly recommend others to do the same. Thank you for the fantastic service.

All the mains seems to be "rolled" and frozen. The pulled pork had the aromo of what I can only explain as cat food. Not the same as it used to be with the previous owner Russel

Simply perfect. Great food, atmosphere and service. Especially good was the house red - Richelieu. So good we've tracked it down since to order it at home.

I came to auberge with my husband for my 30th birthday, the atmosphere in the restaurant is always lovely and Russell always goes out of his way to make you feel special. I was treated to a 30th birthday desert platter which was absolutely amazing and unexpected and made my meal really special. Definitely come here if you want lovely food, great atmosphere and to be taken care of. Thank you auberge :) :)

We called in for lunch today at the Auberge in Southport.As well as the normal full lunch menu a new limited specials menu is also available which we decided to try out.A choice of main courses was on offer including fish and chips, roast of the day and sausage casserole for £6.95 and a choice of two alternatives for dessert.A bottle of red, white or rose wine is on offer for £12.A roll and a serving of balsamic vinegar and olive oil was provided.To drink we opted for a bottle of the red wine which was a merlot from Puglia in Italy and a carafe of water was provided. We both chose the roast of the day which was beef served with roast potatoes, yorkshire pudding, a selection of seasonal vegetables and a generous serving of gravy.For the dessert course we both chose the crumble of the day which was rhubarb and apple with a large serving of custard.To finish we had a latte and a flat white coffee.All of the food was very well cooked and presented and the house wine was excellent.The service at the Auberge is always friendly and efficient and the meal was excellent value as well as very enjoyable.

Four of us ate there last night and it was faultless. Really varied menu. I fancied just about everything on there. The food and drink is very reasonably priced. Nice ambiance and good service. Thank you. Look forward to trying your Winter Warmers menu.

Food here is always excellent. Russell & Frank and all the staff are brilliant.Great atmosphere. Would always recommend.

Auberge is treating us unfortunate enough to be in the Liverpool City Region to a little time away from the TV with their Monday to Friday Winter Warmer delights from 12 noon to 5.30 pm with a choice of 5 lovely main courses at £6.95 and a couple of desserts at £3.95.We have just had the nicest steak and kidney pie ever with gorgeous mash and veg.Other treats to be had include fish and chips and roast of the day and of course a veg option. Treating ourselves to wine as well.We don’t know how long these restrictions will last but at least we know where to come to while away the time. Excellent social distancing and customer service.

We regularly visit The Auberge restaurant in Southport. This week they’ve introduced a new Winter Warmers menu. Monday - Friday 12 noon to 5.30 pm. All mains are £6.95 and desserts £3.95. I had fish and chips while my husband had roast beef with roast potatoes and vegetables both meals were to the usual high standard that we’ve come to enjoy every time we visit. Also offered is the extensive Lunch Menu 12noon - 5pm We can truly recommend The Auberge and during times like this feel that it’s important to support all our local businesses. Russell and his team are maintaining a very high standard of responsible measures in these challenging times and all official guidelines are being implemented. Going back today for lunch maybe I’ll try the Root vegetable cottage pie with olive oil mash. Linda Birchall.

Food was very good. Nice selection on both menus. Nice relaxed friendly atmosphere. Not frozen chips which seems to be the norm.

Celebrated my birthday here last night, the food was superb and the service was excellent,thank you Russell, Linda and sfaff for a really lovely night xx

Went last night for dinner. 3 courses for £20 each. Awesome food and amazing service. Can't fault this place.

There are so many fabulous eateries in the Southport area that up until now we’d overlooked Auberge. What a mistake. At an incredible £13.50 for a 2 course lunch, we were simply blown away by the top quality food and excellent service. There were quite a few things we were tempted by on the menu but we settled for 2 Mediterranean platter starters, followed by the sea bass and the chickpea burger. There is very obviously a chef at Auberge who takes great pride in the food as it was all faultless. The portion sizes are huge and we were sorry not to sample a pudding, but we will next time. My final comment has to be on the vegetarian (in fact it may have been vegan) burger. It’s really difficult to find a vegetarian burger with the texture just right, usually they’re either too soft or too dry. The one I had for lunch today was spot on, so very well done Auberge and will you please share the secret?

I attended in a group of 5, we came in the evening and got the set menu, It was very reasonably priced £20 for 3 courses! everyone got a different starter and a main and they were all beautiful! The sea bass and the steak pie was excellentThe staff were spot on and we went for a drink next door at sacre bleu where the barmaid was so lovely and friendly! Already booked again for next week!

Ate here tonight, served by a very surly waiter, I think his face would have cracked if he smiled! Had only 1 lamb left, no steak pudding, either would have been my choice. Husband had 'last' lamb, I had steak pie,served with mustard mash, more mustard than mash, pease pudding, inedible. Next table to us ordered lamb, (after us) and they got it, must have been out and bought more! Saying that, husband's lamb very stringy, veg rock hard, and we do like it al dente, my pie was very mediocre. Declined desert, just wanted to leave by this point. Asked for the bill, explained I had the meerkat app, which they were part of, only to be told they don't do it anymore, only certain days, not sunday to Thursday as stated. So, all in all a lousy experience! Save your money and go elsewhere!

Lovely restaurant. Nice ambiance with a great 2 or 3 course menu with lots to choose from. Dry fresh ingredients. Would well recommend. Good fair prices.

Had a gorgeous meal here last night. Very safe and organised and food divine! I had a goats cheese salad with rhubarb , lamb, then merengue/strawberry cheesecake. Every mouthful of every dish was divine. House wine was lovely and to top it got to witness a proposal in your little window table ❤️. In this current climate have to add hand sanitiser on entrance, hand sanitiser on entrance to the toilets and they were spotless and it appeared every other table occupied. Well done auberge x

Always lovely to eat here. Great food. Nice staff. Food is really good. They have great deals and tribute acts.

We came on 18th August to celebrate a family 21st. As always, Russel and team were fabulous and the food was outstanding. Catering for a party of 10 which included 3 children, all food was served promptly and the waiting staff very attentive. Auberge has been our go-to restaurant for celebrations for years and we've never had a bad meal. Highly recommend x

Another super meal at this resturant,Lovely food and drink,French,with lots of choice,early bird served all day Wednesday,worth a visit.

Lovely to finally go to this restaurant and we were not disappointed please give it a try. Social distancing was observed so we felt safe . The food was amazing beautifully presented and tasted amazing . Service and the ambiance was great too. The menu is full of nice choices so we struggled what to choose ,the price was very affordable even without 50% off. Will definitely visit again when we visit the area again .

Booked a table for Saturday dinner. Tables set up socially distanced. Hand gel on entry. For starters we had the lamb croquettes and the rhubarb and goats cheese salad. Both were delicious. For mains we had the haddock linguine and the burger - again both really delicious. Much as we would have loved to have had desserts, we were both full. Great service and friendly staff. £17 for toe courses - what’s not to like. We will return!

I haven't been here for quite some time and was a tad disappointed. I came with my husband for lunch. He had sea bass which he enjoyed and I had the risotto but it was quite tasteless, despite the description on the menu saying chilli and coriander.The restaurant is lovely however.I didn't like seeing the masked waitress though. As well as it not being mandatory for staff to wear these, we couldn't hear what she was saying and she had to repeat herself so many times it was embarrassing. We still didn't quite find out what was on the specials list!

Good little find. Great staff good food and very good value. Had a lovely meal outside under a covered terrace. Lots of room inside too

We had two meals on two separate occasions here. My husband enjoyed his, he had chicken, I had sea bass. It looked nice, but it was dry without a sauce and I've had a lot better tasting fish. The desserts were ok .On the second visit we both had the rolled lamb, looked nice, and although my husband said his was ok , I didn't like mine. The lamb was cooked well enough, but very strong tasting and when I asked for mint sauce I laughed when I was given a lidded jar of it. I actually thought it was going to be Colmans! It was all clumped together and dry. I hardly ate any of it, veg was a bit tasteless and although my husband said he'd give them another go I'm not too sure if I would.

Although styling itself as a "brasserie", the experience is more like a pub meal.We had the rolled lamb and sea bass. Both were just OK, decent portions but not great quality. The lamb especially was a bit like a pre-cooked pub meal.Service was efficient but not friendly, characterised mainly by short questions and nods. After paying, we asked the waiter to give us some change from a £20 note for a tip. He basically threw the change onto the table, with coins falling onto the floor, where he just pointed before walking off.Needless to say, I don't recommend this one.

Our first stopover visit to Southport. This restaurant was a recommendation from the owner of our hotel, Glenray. As it’s a very short walk to get there, we gave it a try. At peak times, I’d advise to book. The food is excellent and a good range across the menu. If you gave a sweet tooth, I’d advise pacing yourself during the day to get through 3 courses. I had the Swordfish on our first visit, it was delicious! Give it a try, you won’t be disappointed

Innovative menu's & excellent covid procedures in place. Set menu's for lunch & dinner (2 or 3 courses from £13 - £17, & are great value even before Boris picking up half the tab this month! Early bird 3 courses for £12 is also great value. We had Chicken in goats cheese sauce & pork steak In port & Stilton as mains & both 10/10. Good wine list & by the glass.

First time out after shielding and we couldn't have been happier. We had wonderful food and the covid measures that they have in place are very good and it made us feel very safe. We have been longing to go to Auberge during all the lockdown months and it certainly didn't disappoint! If you've never been, you must give it a try.

We have been travelling around England for the past 10 day’s and this is by far the best meal we have eaten. Not only was it the only place in Southport we have eaten where staff have adhered to Covid-19 regs they were friendly, welcoming and accommodating. We had the chef special starter of prawns with chilli and guacamole and a rhubarb and goats cheese starter. Followed by a chateaubriand for two with all the trimmings. We were fortunate enough to be offered this despite not ordering it. The steak was cooked as ordered and melted in your mouth. Our only regret is we were so full we could not eat a dessert. The price was very reasonable and we will definitely return if we come back to Southport.

I have visited the restaurant in July and August 2020 on both occasions the food was excellent. The restaurant itself is very pleasant.

Well, the food was really excellent, no doubt about that, and the wines were good - and sensibly priced. But the visit left mixed feelings.We sat down to the rear - which was not a good location, as the low ceiling bounces back everyone's conversations like an amplification chamber. No sooner had we taken our seats than the waiter (who was wearing a mask, but without it covering his nose) was upon us inviting us to immediately order drinks. Unsurprisingly, we weren't ready.He was similarly too hasty to request the food order, which he invited us to place the moment the aperitifs arrived. Only one of our party got their aperitif of choice, because there wasn't an orange in the house for the preferred Campari - so it was routine G&T for others. That was disappointing.Would we visit again? On balance, yes - for the food. But next time we'll sit further forward, because of the excessive decibels to the rear. It wouldn't be a bad idea if someone addressed the noise issue - I'm sure there are measures that could be taken. The five star rating is for the food - otherwise, probably a three.

The COVID precautions were good, although I wish the staff would cover their nose as well as there mouth with the face masks!£17 for 2 courses, £20 for 3 courses is good value. Portion sizes more than reasonable, so no problems here. The quality of the food is mixed. There is nothing bad about it. I had the slow cooked lamb which was tasty with lovely new potatoes and a knockout gravy. But I think I could cook that as well. So I would say the food is pub grub standard. Nothing wrong with that and the prices closely align to that. I will come back, but it’s not on my ‘special’ list of restaurants in Southport.

Nice surroundings friendly staff and most important great food at sensible prices. My wife and I visited for an evening meal and can find no fault with this restaurant. We where on holiday in Southport and this place was recommended by several people and I can see why. Would definitely recommend it.

Saturday lunch time menu. When we arrived for our reservation there weren't many other tables seated, but it filled as time passed. The menu was very interesting with an impressive variety.There was no chicken liver parfait starter unfortunately, which was the only starter than appealed to us.My wife chose, for her main, the honey mustard pulled pork which she really enjoyed. I picked the bacon stilton wagyu burger which was lovely.As part of the lunch time two course deal we both picked a dessert - my wife had the apple and almond frangipane while my dessert was the cheesecake with liquorice ice cream. They were also very nice!Our friends enjoyed their meals too, so everyone in the party was happy. The atmosphere allowed for a nice friendly catch up and the coffees at the end were lovely. It isn't cheap but the prices are reasonable considering the quality of the food.It seemed to us that other tables were being served much quicker than we were so our rating factors that in, otherwise it would have been 5/5.

What a joy to be almost back to normal at Auberge. To start with the difficult issues to all restaurants with covid involved. The staff at Auberge were fantastic distanced as much as possible all wearing masks and with a very cleaver idea of disposable menus. There where 4 of us and we had the 3 courses for £20 and fantastically cooked food the chicken liver parfait and rolled lamb where particularly lovely followed by the very generous cheese board (I was hungry ). Also there is the option for advanced order of a whole lobster, no where in Southport Has this at the moment and it is a little slice of luxury. It is very rare to find a gem of this longevity, 27 years!! And it is at such a high standard. Auberge is the only place for me to eat in Southport

We visited for the early evening menu on Wednesday 15th July after a 4 month’s closure and were delighted with the changes to the venue. The upper space and therefore the stairs have gone, one wall has gone and with the new decor the restaurant has opened up and appears lighter and more spacious. However it is still cosy and intimate . The food was just as delicious and excellent value and service very friendly and attentive. It has always been a favourite place to eat but will be even more so.Jacqui and David Henshaw

We've been waiting to get back out for a meal and wanted to return to Auberge as we knew the help that they'd provided to people during the lockdown. Whilst that might have been the main motivation we did ourselves a big favour in the process as lunch was excellent. The menu was interesting and the steps taken re bio-security left us feeling entirely relaxed. The food was great and really good value. Strongly recommend if you're looking for a pleasant lunch experience.

One of our favourite restaurants in Southport so was nice to go back there for Lunch now that they have re opened.as always food was very good with a 2 course set menu for £13,00 social distancing was strictly adhered too and plenty of hand sanitiser available.The only reason i have not give 5 star was that the Fish portion was very small compared to the amount of batter surrounding it,but still very tasty

It was really nice today to be able to return to The Auberge in Seabank Road Southport, for our first restaurant meal since the end of the lockdown.We booked by phone in advance for lunch today and found that the restaurant has been redecorated and refurbished during the lockdown and is now completely contained on the ground floor. The set lunch menu offers 1 course for £10, 2 courses for £13.50 or 3 courses for £17 (with some additional supplements for certain specific items).To drink we had a red wine and bitter shandy.A bread roll with oil and balsamic vinegar and a jug of water was provided.To eat we chose a garlic bread to share to start.For the main course we both chose sirloin steak (supplement payable) which was served with chips, a grilled tomato and a Portobello mushroom.For dessert we both chose the pear tart tatin with prosecco sherbet.We finished with two lattes.The restaurant experience offers friendly welcoming staff, a relaxing atmosphere, great food and drinks and good value for money.We would recommend the Auberge and will look forward to another visit soon.
