Bridge Inn in Wirral

I haven't been here for 30 years. Went the other week and was shocked to see how dilapidated the place was. Peeling, paint dirty floors, leaking roof and generally grubby looking. On the positive side the staff were very pleasant but looked overworked and disorganised even though the place wasn't really busy, with the bar staff having to run around and deliver food as well as try and serve at the bar. All resulting in long waits for service etc. The biggest disappointment was the quality of the food though. The burgers were like the microwave Rustlers burgers you get in the supermarket. The bun on one of them was beyond stale it just crumbled when biten or cut with a knife. In fairness, the food on offer is a poor quality offering but reasonably priced. Green King appears to be part of the Hungry Horse group of pubs so if you are looking for gastro pub quality, you are going to be very disappointed. On the other hand, if you like reasonably priced, deep fried, beige coloured food, the menu will tick all of your boxes. The best thing that could happen to this building and Port Sunlight would be for Green King to sell the pub to a more upmarket brewery who can invest in basic building maintainance, spruce the place up and get a better quality menu. The potential for the place is huge it's just a shame that it has marketed itself at the cheap and cherful(ish) end of the pub market.

Couldn't fault the team enough. Had abit of bad luck was more than happy to help out and pour me a pint to forget about it. Repaid the favour with mcdonalds breakfast

Booked for an afternoon meal to celebrate a family birthday, Shanny and Emma looked after us and we enjoyed our food and drinks.

Been here for breakfast today and credit where its due. The staff where wonderful, nothing was too much. My family can be fussy and the ladies here handled it with ease. All day Breakfast was lovely, nice strong cuppa too. Such a nice building, decor quite monden and homely. Definitely coming back again.

Great food, staff are so friendly.

We come weekly in our lunch break,service always spot on and food yummy ,we have a regular choice of lunch and never disappoints us . Staff even know what we have love the personal touch (shanny and Oliver )

Poor customer service. It's a shame as its a lovely pub. Good selection of beers, but no crisps or nuts. Good Food menu.

Great place , for a nice drink , also customer service very professional and friendly.

Just had a really nice lunch here with my husband after a walk around historic Port Sunlight Village. It wasn’t particularly busy but there was a little wait for the food - not a bad thing maybe as you feel it’s being cooked and not just microwaved! I had the beef lasagne which was deep and very tasty, it came with garlic ciabatta and a small salad. Hubby had the sizzling gammon which arrived with a fried egg, on a skillet on top of fried onions with a side of chips, peas and tomatoes. He said it was the best gammon steak he had had in ages. Both meals were in the “2 for £13.49” deal, so with his pint of IPA and my glass of wine the bill was just over £20. Very good value! There were some other great deals available, like 2 small courses for £6.49 if you have a little appetite - tempting but I really wanted the lasagne and it isn’t included in that deal. Shani (spelling?) and Morgan were our friendly and efficient servers. Would definitely eat here again when we’re in the area!

Amazing service, and great hospitality Shanny was lovely and very talkative (she loves the treseme) will go again

Went for a meal on 29/1 with friends lovely place , lovely food , staff Emma and Shanny couldn’t do enough for u would definitely visit here again

We had amazing service from shanny, Morgan and Emma

Amazing food and service, Shanny was really welcoming and kind

Shanny provided amazing service thankyou very much x

Food was amazing and great service from our fabulous servers Shanny Morgan and Emma

Brilliant service off Shanny today!!

Shanny provided brilliant service and the food was very nice.

Went for a pub meal. Food was very nice. Staff very friendly and attentive. Couldn't fault it

We went for lunch today morgan was amazing very welcoming and friendly delivered food to are table and asked if everything was OK. Would love to be served by him again what a lovely member to you team

Walked into the bar and no one behind it for at least 5mins! Initial service (when he eventually apperared!) was good even though he was busy. Went to get a second drink at the bar and there were 2 members of staff huddled over the till without any acknowledgement that I was actually waiting! 10 minutes later I got my drink!! Certain staff need customer relations training!! You will lose any valuable customers on the current set up.

Just had a lovely meal at The Bridge Inn taking advantage of the final BOGOFF offer that’s been on all month. We received a warm friendly welcome as usual from Shanny. She always go’s out of her way to make sure that you have everything you need , keen that you enjoy your meal. There is always a good happy atmosphere here at The Bridge . In both the bar and restaurant sides , the service is always the same. The team giving a good service.

Popped in out of the rain and had a lovely pot of tea and some chocolate fudge cake. The tea was lovely and hot and that fudge cake was incredibly decadent, with just enough ice cream to counter point the stickiness. Staff were welcoming and very friendly. Lovely visit, I will definitely call in again The staff I interacted with were Shanny and Morgan. Lovely members of staff

It's ok, friendly staff. Needs a bit of tlc and given it's location I was surprised it wasn't a bit neater and tidier (cigarette ends in ashtrays outside etc that had obviously been there for a while). Only had a cup of tea.

The breakfast here is excellent, especially the bacon. Service was friendly and efficient and Sophie was a great help with our choices . Definitely recommend

it was a lovely environment with very nice staff. Sophie and Charlene catered to us and were very helpful in answering questions regarding the alcohol drinks and very friendly

Needed a room mid week , arrived to be told nothing was available, despite their own website and booking.com showing rooms. Had met my friend so we decided to have a drink before I went to find a room elsewhere. Said we wanted to order separately, drinks were charged together. Paid on card , barman didn't even say thank you or its gone through.... I looked up and he was gone. Used to love this place, such a shame.

Gorgeous lunch, we both had the 8oz rump steak which was on the buy one get one free offer, absolutely spot on. I had mine with salad and peppercorn sauce really delicious, my partner had his with chips and bbq sauce which he said was equally as nice. Service was spot on, our server I've forgotten her name but she was lovely. Definitely recommend 100% and we'll definitely be going back. Couldn't fault it, we both had coffees which were lovely too in fact my partner enjoyed his cappuccino so much he had 2 x

Shan and Emma where great, just came in for a quick pint after a walk round this lovely village and was made so welcome by these lovely ladies, great selection of draught beers and food to top it all off

Went for lunch on Saturday afternoon. Morgan, who took our order, helpfully pointed out the BOGOF January offer. Fairly quick service and generous portions. Olde worlde surroundings, an interesting building. Should make a special mention for Morgan who was friendly, efficient and helpful in serving us.

Fantastic staff food lovely manageress Very helpful

I was delighted at my first visit because the ambience was warm, bright and cheery. The building itself caught my attention when I was driving by so I stopped and went in for some food and drink. Everything was perfect, thank you.

Great service lovely people helped us on the bill because we was working on the pub. Shanny mark and sean . Always welcoming and happy place

Went here to have lunch and we were greeted with a warm welcome by the staff. The food was excellent we all choose to have burgers they were absolutely amazing We will definitely be coming back if we’re in the area again Just want to thank the staff there for the food and hospitality 5* Shannay Mark Sean From LG UPRIGHT SCAFFOLDING

Food and service great . This was our 3rd stay and this was certainly the best stay staff wise . They were so lovely hard working and happy in their jobs .Kerry who checked us in was enthusiastic and so helpful. The hotel was warm and rooms very clean and comfortable. Unfortunately and this is no reflection on the staff the hotel needs a lot of updating . The carpets are the worst aspect and are a disaster waiting to happen especially on the stairs. Worn areas have been taped with duct tape which was there a year ago . Chipped paint on doors and latches on windows broken . I'm shocked that Greene King let these problems continue especially the stair problem . The hotel is in a great location and the function room and restaurant are extremely busy . Shame the accommodation is so neglected.

Great room for the price. Quick walk from the metro station. Comfortable beds and sturdy towels. Breakfast was substantial, tasty, and a great price. Excellent service from Shanny and Nicola. Can’t wait to come back!

We had a lovely family meal, food was lovely and our waitress Sophie Makinson was just wonderful very bubbly, polite and efficient great service would highly recommend it here

Stayed here for 2 nights. Lovely cozy room very clean & comfortable.An old building but very well maintained. Excellent breakfast. Great location train station 2 mins up the road to take you into the centre of Liverpool in 20 mins. Would recommend & we would stay again. Great staff team. Special mention to Mark for making us feel very welcome & looking after us. 👍

We had a lovely night. The food was excellent, and at a reasonable price. Staff where friendly and helpful. Will be visiting again.. Thank you

Had a lovely meal , service was great Food arrived Hot Really good prices on the meals Staff couldn’t do enough for us We will be back very soon Highly recommend the fish and chips

Great family meal, good choice and friendly staff.

Sunday lunch was good value at £8.95, small serving of meat but that's absolutely fair enough at that price. Good quantity of fresh vegetables. The building is run down and needs a lot of upgrading. We had booked but no table had been set aside for us and we were told it would be an hour wait for the food.

Cheap, drinks are expensive, rooms are cold, hollow & loud. Went to order food (it’s a Greene King) at the bar and was told I’d have to move to the restaurant area (it’s a Greene King) so ordered Chinese and ate it in my freezing cold room instead. If you need a bed while working away it’ll do and it’s cheap.

Verry epic chip,burgers Emma is verry good bar staff Amy is great I had a great time will come again sincerely Lewis roberto

Lovely pub - nice stay bit tired but lovely room friendly staff and nice food

I was working on the pub doing scaffolding they were polite and very thoughtfull. Looked after us all . And even made us breakfast. When it had finished. Very lovely people would highly recommend. Thanks nicki and shanny lovely women x

Channy & mark were absolutely great hosts very attentive great pub lovely atmosphere, great food, reasonably priced love coming here

Beautiful area lovely pub staff are great especially emma amazing service

Seven of us came for breakfast Shanni our waitress was friendly and took our orders . all breakfast Nicely cooked , Thankyou Shanni for looking after us well and cook for lovely breakfasts

We came here for my birthday breakfast and it was absolutely delicious. Our waitress was called Shanny and she was great, really helpful and friendly and made a fuss of my toddler who wanted to order for herself. There was 7 of us total and all the food came out together and was hot and tasty. Only thing I will say is we rang up the night before to ask about breakfast and we were told it stops at 10:30 but all the menus say served until 12 so I'm unsure what it actually is but we would definitely come back again as it was great. Thanks Shanny!

Had breakfast here today and it was really nice ! Couldn't fault the staff.. sophie and shanny , they where very friendly and helped me out loads. Would come again

Been there today for lunch not been before. Steak pie for hubby with chips peas and spot on gravy. I had lasagna garlic bread and a little salad food was super hot and very tasty. Shani and Rebecca were on duty lovely and really friendly very chatty. We will most certainly be back. Thank you for a lovely lunch 🥰

Great pub and great service, Shanny and Sean made us feel very welcome and the food was spot on 👍

We called in for lunch and wasn't disappointed. Fabulous senior meal served by Rebecca who was a wonderful host and looked after us very well

Great stay at the Bridge Inn. Sophie is excellent and is a lady of many talents. Kayleigh and Maxine provided excellent customer service. Great staff, great hospitality. Would highly recommend

Real disappointing meal at the Bridge Inn. So it was a very quiet Saturday afternoon when my fiancé and I arrived. We sat in what we now know is the pub side. We ordered our meals and drinks on the app. The drinks took 20mins and only when my fiancé went up to the bar did the bar server realise we had ordered. After another 5 mins a different server came out to ask if we had ordered food to which we were told we were in the wrong section of the pub and needed to go to the restaurant side. Only on a Saturday pm do they not serve food on the pub side apparently, this is sign posted nowhere. The server, in a rude tone, said that's why there were no menus on the tables. However, the condiments, napkins, cutlery and little menus were so it wasn't obvious food wasn't being served. After sitting in the restaurant side we heard a table being told that it would be 40 mins for food because of some issue with the new chef. Bare in mind it's almost completely empty, there are maybe 5 tables with people on them. When our food did arrive my gammon steak, egg and chips was fine but my fiancé's steak & ale pie with mash, peas and gravy was disgusting. The peas were clearly tinned, the gravy was bisto, the mash was those frozen pellets you microwave and the pie was soggy and had definitely been microwaved as well. It's a shame because it's quite nice in the bar side of the pub but we won't be going there to eat again.

We had a meal in the restaurant, food delicious 😋 but the service was excellent couldn't fault it.

Lunch only but good service and good food

Great value for money, and the staff are so helpful and accommodating

The Bridge inn Burger experience is second to none.

Well what can I say, the best meal I’ve ever had at this wonderful establishment, so much so that we asked the bar staff for the name of the chef in the kitchen so that we could give her a special mention, Deena certainly knows how to handle the heat in the kitchen that’s for sure!, the bar staff where extremely friendly and catered to our every need, 5 stars!!!!

Went for a 16th birthday dinner, service was OK food OK but restaurant area wasn't good had to walk right through bar area through to dinning area because they've closed the entrance to we're you used to go in ,and bar is closed in dinning area ,not to impressed ,couldn't fault the 3 staff members that had to deal either this aswell .

Came for a roast at 7.30pm. Had to get a refund because the chef closed the kitchen early to watch the football game👍🏼

The staff are great and really looked after me and my partner, as well as our 10 month old baby. The service was snappy, even though we turned up just before open time, they were welcoming. They even made my partner a drink that wasn't on the menu! The food wasn't great. I got a sausage sandwich that had 1 sausage cut length ways to fill the bread. The bread wasn't fresh tasting either and was dry. In short, front of house brilliant! People who decided the menu (not the chefs, they're just doing their job), pretty poor

A family of 7 with a child requiring a high chair. Seated quickly, 4 of us arrived earlier than the others and we were offered drinks while we waited for the rest of our party. Plenty of choice on the menu and very reasonable! Mark and Jack who served us were polite and friendly throughout, nothing was too much trouble. Great banter when my son ( who doesn't really like spicy food) decided he wanted to try the Carolina reaper wings! 🤦‍♀️ food was cooked fresh and hot when it arrived, all cleaned our plates (apart from the unfinished portion of reaper wings due to my son being far too optimistic! 🤣) would definitely return!

Fabulous food, fabulous staff, fabulous service. Sophie and Cherline were fantastic.

Beautiful setting in Port Sunlight village. Pleasant staff. Good budget pub food . Dog friendly up until 6pm.

We visited this pub for lunch today through recommendations from friends, firstly, all the 5 meals came out separately with parts of meals missing/on others plates, then 1 of the meals was quite a bit later coming out a roast dinner, when the meal came it was the wrong meal which sides/extra’s were ordered which we did not receive….we had been given another tables meal and when we asked about this there was no apology…. the lady on the other table was asked if she would like the turkey meal and not the beef meal she had ordered! There didn’t seem to be anyone in charge…..no customer service in this place whatsoever….steer clear as the food is awful…we won’t be returning, sorry!

Served by Sophie,accommodating. Pleasant surroundings. Would recommend.

Lovely food, Sophie was brilliant!

Really lovely food served by Shanny and Phoebe. Really great service. Food piping hot and brought to the table by the chef no less. Batter on the fish especially good.

Shanny x and Phoebe x where a absolute delight to me and my family while we enjoyed our food and mocktails

Only went in for a drink. Good value, menu looks good, going back another day for a meal.

Staff lovely. Food not the best but polite staff.

Rubbish food cold and fatty - staff couldn't wait for us to leave

Went for lunch with family yesterday 24th may 2024..had the senior menu gammon which looked soft and juicy. But it wasn't cooked enough..I now have food poisoning.. and the 3 scoop ice-cream only had 2 scoops and no waffer..

Stopped in for Sunday lunch, really nice freshly cooked food. Very reasonable prices and great service, dogs are welcome in the bar area. Very pleasantly surprised by how good it was for pub food.

Pub food at its best. Love it. The fella that served us was friendly and helpful.

Very nice pub, I enjoyed a beef rib and almost cryed at how easily it fell of the bone. The staff was great also, very welcoming and made me feel at home even though I live in Scunthorpe

Shanny and Kane was excellent and made us feel welcomed and the food was lovely

Delicious meal, staff friendly and the service was excellent. Prices were very reasonable for the quality of the meal and the portions were good. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a nice place to eat.

Such a shame this is the only pub in the picturesque port sunlight village! We came here for lunch on Friday with our dogs. We were told the pub is not dog friendly, that was fine it was nice and sunny so didn’t mind sitting outside. Problem was we couldn’t order food for outside, no reason given just told that’s the rules! Oh well we won’t be returning, ridiculous in my opinion! Also, website says dog friendly!

Sorry to say had a very poor experience for lunch either me or my wife could eat our lunch. Staff were good but sadly the food was very poor

Amazing place. Food is always the best.

Just been for lunch great food, excellent value. Friendly staff.

Great service from the team and Sophie’s hospitality and humour was outstanding :-)

Always a pleasure to visit here as the staff are so friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Really enjoyed my meal today and was impressed by the variety of the menu. Thank you Sophie for being so attentive.

This pub/hotel/restaurant is in the picturesque village of Port Sunlight. The Bridge Inn looks OK from the outside, but as soon as you enter, you realise how dilapidated the interior is. Even the carpet in the entrance way is in need of replacement. Interior dividing woodwork has holes, plaster is falling off the walls, carpet near the toilets has lost all its pile and has become black and matted. It really is bad. The whole place obviously hasn't been renovated in a long time, and it shows. It needs some urgent TLC just to make it acceptable. We didn't eat here, and given the state of the place, I wouldn't eat here. It was truly awful. Avoid.

Called in per chance. Ordered 2 roast dinner Our friends ordered the ribeys steak and lamb kofa. Absolutely gorgeous. Staff were amazing helpful and very polite. Would Highley recommend the Bridge Inn. Thankyou to all the staff especially Georgia

Got served the wrong meal, but was quickly rectified although it was a tad cold and undercooked. The staff are friendly and helpful. Lovely venue.

Always great food, drink and vibes. Served by Sophie and Ethan who did a very good job :)

We had a lovely stay. Very nice staff. Beautiful location and a nice cozy little pub. The rooms are a bit older and it shows, but to no detrement to the overall experience.

We had a lovely stay in this cute little Inn, which is located in a picturesque suburb. The rooms were clean and very cosy. Would always come back and enjoy the hospitality of our hosts again. Thank you!

Visited restaurant with friends.

Lovely evening meal as a family of 3. We are staying in an air b and b in port sunlight so the bridge inn was an ideal location for us within walking distance. There is a large expansive menu, with lots to chose from! A good children’s menu too. Very welcoming to my daughter who is 3, she asked Sophie who found her some colouring to keep her well entertained through out the duration of the meal. We were served by Sophie who was very friendly, attentive and welcoming. If you’re looking for a reasonably priced pub grub kind of place, you’ll do well here.

Nice pub, good food and lovely service from Sophie.

Stopped off for a drink and a bite to eat. Nice pub, very reasonably priced and very friendly staff- Sophie was very welcoming and attentive. 10/10 would definitely call in again.

Food was absolutely amazing, so impressed. Sophie was lovely and welcoming and couldn’t do enough for us. Ethan was super friendly and great service. Great night all round thank you

The service was great and the location was beautiful. The food was really delicious too. I would have loved to give it 5 stars but the glasses weren’t very clean.

Lovely place for a drink and pub food. Friendly staff

Great staff very helpful Shanny, Phoebe were serving thanks a lot my Daughter was very happy 😁
