Buyers Club in Liverpool

I went for drinks here. Good atmosphere, friendly and helpful bar staff.

Genuinely the best bowl of pasta in town - the anchovy and friarelli is a taste sensation, the egg yolk spaghetti is masterful - few ingredients but incredible authentic taste.

We went for lunch on a Saturday at 1:30pm and the food and service were exceptional. Excellent service from Lennon who recommended wine, got water for our flowers and offered a smaller pasta portion for a toddler. Thank you for a lovely experience. We are regulars :)

Attended for a Sunday roast, it was tasty and well presented but it was built in a sort of roast tower to hide the 3 roast potatoes and 1 carrot cut into 3. I ordered arancini as a starter and received a single tiny breaded ball. But disappointing. And £29 each for two courses.

I rarely leave reviews for anything, but Buyers Club deserves every star I can give it for its Sunday roast. I had the porchetta and it was sublime. The salsa verde was inspired. Genuinely one of the best roasts I’ve ever had in Liverpool and I will die on that hill.

The fresh pasta was amazing. I was unsure what to expect but the taste was perfect. The setting was perfect and I’d definitely go back just chill and catch up with friends with a wine and one of their pizzas in the beer garden. Perfect for a date night vibe or friendly catch up. For a starter I shared the focaccia which was pretty good and enough for two people. We tried the mushroom tagliolini (personal favourite and recommendation) and cavolo nero egg yolk spaghetti (personally once the egg had been eaten the asparagus was overpowering). Dessert was an amazing tiramisu and chocolate crumble with cherries.

Superb alternative place for a meeting, quick meal, family lunch, or dinner. The food menu evoque mediterran flavours are very close to authentique Italian cuisine. This was for me a meeting and dinner. The pasta is fresh, but I thought the sauces were away from the real Italian food as there is far too much use of cream, very disappointed with the taste, even worse after having the supposed baked yoghurt, perhaps I did not choose the well. My friend said the same. Also, the price does compares with other good restaurants while the buyers club is more like what in Italy is called botega: wine and pasta. Rather simple and rustic. The wine choices are good, but though alao to be slightly overpriced I am happy to return if invited and taste the best options. Otherwise, I leave my sincere review

We were bought a gift voucher for here, we hadn't heard of the place so we're a little unsure what to expect... However the place was incredible, probably the nicest Italian meal we have had in years... Food was as great, service was amazing... Cannot wait to return soon...

Can't see this place surviving, they have a sign out front saying "please wait to be seated" As I waited there whilst my partner tried to find someone , other people were turning up and then just leaving because nobody was there to greet them. Eventually after what felt like a struggle we got seated. The menu can best be described as experimental. So it seemed very uncertain what we would get. The food was Ok, I think they make their own pasta and that is supposed to be their USP. The place was basically deserted with the staff just standing around chatting to each other, and it seemed didn't really want any customers.

Did not enjoy any of the dishes we ordered. We had no sooner got our starter when our mains arrived which was not good. The menu was very very limited. There was no atmosphere as the place was quite empty. The hostess was very pleasant though as was another male server who came over and chatted. Sorry but would not return.

The location was great and setting. The service was good, and there was a great vibe about the place. If you like it busy and noisy. If you prefer a quieter venue where you can eat and talk, this isn't for you. The food was OK. It was exactly as it said on the menu. Nothing special, but ok.

Went here for a pre theatre meal. Staff pleasant if slightly distracted. Food amazing. It’s a small menu but what we had was delicious. Good portion size, all presented well. Only disappointing was the dessert menu, only a couple of options and nothing wowed us. Would visit again

Food was delicious, very tasty roast dinner a level above what you could cook at home but the quantity of veg/size of the side dishes was poor, making them very overpriced. If they improved this would be a 5/5 roast. Good wine and drinks.

went for an early tea at 6 on a Saturday as a group of 4 friends, it was very busy but the service was excellent, very attentive, efficient & friendly, food arrived quickly and was delicious , as was the wine!, the decor and ambience were lovely too- would highly recommend

We visit frequently and they just get it right. The staff are always warm and friendly to a man/woman. The atmosphere just always feels like you belong and the food is honestly very hard to beat. Just had the roast beef Sunday lunch and all starters and mains were excellent and generous. It’s the sort of Sunday lunch you want to recommend to others hence the immediate feedback. Thank you all for a lovely Sunday afternoon. Excellent

It's such a great place with fantastic service!! I had the best classic Martini ever. I will definitely go again.

The place isn't bad but the attitude of the staff really let the place down. Of course I can't tar all the staff members with that same brush, but one particular staff member seemed to love arguing with me and making passive aggressive remarks. Oh well.

I find it a bit hit or miss here tbh. I’ve been 3/4 times now and tried something different each time. The nduja pasta has a really strange taste - it smells a bit odd too. The risotto was lovely but far too much of it as it’s really rich. The ragu was probably my favourite but I wouldn’t say it blew me away! The focaccia and whipped ricotta was a 10 out of 10 tho, could eat a massive plate of just that. I’d say it’s priced a bit high in comparison to other Italians in the city - the quarter for example does gorgeous pasta and it’s cheaper!

Simply superb food and atmosphere - pasta dishes simple, packed full of flavour- yum. Highly recommend- courtyard especially magical.

Early Monday evening in August & it was pretty happening! Weather didn't encourage outdoor dining - which I sense is otherwise a great option. Indoors is pretty noisy. Bare walls, high ceilings, nothing sound absorbent. Youngish crowd - 20's/30's. Appetisers all great - would consider just dining off those on next visit. Pasta dishes ok to good. Took a bit too long & one dish arrived lukewarm, other a bit over-seasoned. The single dessert was a miss. Staff are all great. Friendly, efficient, personable. Will definitely return.

Menu options quite limited so we left.

Brilliant food and really great staff - well done all

Took family who were over from New Zealand. They said it was the best meal they had on the whole trip. That included London ! Fabulous selection, brilliant service, generous portion sizes of amazing tasty food.

Great experience. Nice indoor and outdoor seating areas. Lovely fresh food and nice drinks. Very good value for money and great service from all staff

Fantastic food, especially the small plates. The lasagne bites were great.

What a fantastic night we had. Restaurant full but managed to snag a table outside. Some heat lamps and blankets provided by staff kept us cosy. Fabulous food and great choice of wine. Big shout out to Lennon our server what a star he was, nothing was too much trouble. The food was top notch too. Great team great service and great food, especially the lasagna bites, loved them. Will be back soon.

Everything is actually great. The food tastes wonderful and is of great quality. The location is very stylish and inviting. Unfortunately, it is incredibly loud. Outside in nice weather would be just awesome.

The nduja pasta was to die for!!!! And the Arancini. We went at lunch time so not busy. Service was great lovely visit when visiting Liverpool.

Dedicated staff, great atmosphere and the most phenomenal and consistent food in the city. Will never fail to recommend this place with my whole heart. Hospitalities finest for sure.

Pasta very good as usual. Feels understaffed as waiter was very busy. Father's day meal.

Just called in for a pint. Good range of wines but fairly limited range of beers. The best thing about this place is the beer garden. It's a really great place to have a drink as it's well sheltered from winds but seems to get the sun most of the day. Nice place for a relaxing drink.

My husband and I went last night and the food was unbelievably average / disappointing. The staff were good and the venue is lovely so it’s a real shame. We’ve said we won’t eat there again as this is the third time that the food hasn’t measured up. There are so many great places to eat in this city too!

Excellent service, really good pizza and beautiful setting

Average at best. Small pasta portion and not great for the price

A excellent hidden treasure in Liverpool. Look for it, and try the great food selection.

All really good, special shout outs to Cacio E Pepe butter beans and Orange baked yoghurt. Staff sooo warm and friendly, thanks a gazillion xx

One of the best restaurants in Liverpool. The food is stunning, the atmosphere super cosy. Good selection of wines as well. I never get disappointed here 💜

The food wasn’t what we expected (maybe we just ordered the wrong thing as there are a lot of great reviews on the food). The pasta was doughy and there was hardly any sausage, the risotto was overwhelmed by peas and we did not believe the price was worth the quality of food. The service however was brilliant and the drinks were lovely. We even stayed for another drink sat outside under the heaters, the bartender made me a drink that wasn’t on the menu which was perfect. Would come back again but only for drinks.

Dined here with my wife Easter weekend after seeing the TopJaw guys had recommended. Front of house was a little abrupt while looking for our booking on the computer. We were then seated. We had the lasagne bites to start, and shared the duck orchiaetta ragu and a pizza. Everything was just bang average in taste, quality and portion size. Food was under seasoned and the pizza was nothing to shout home about. Credit to the waitress for at least asking what we thought so gave her honest feedback. As a gesture of goodwill, they knocked 10% off the final bill which was nice. Was expecting more from the food, but there was no ompffff or wow factor. Left still hungry and shared another pizza at Rudys down the road!

Lovely, friendly staff. Food was delightful as always. My partner is not usually impressed by restaurant food and he thoroughly enjoyed it and said he would make the journey to town (30 mins) just for this food!

Shocking arrogance of the bar staff ensured that we left immediately. I have no idea why we were spoken to like we were, but needless to say we won’t ever go back.

Absolutely abysmal attitude off the staff. Never been in before, and thought this is a new gem which somehow I've missed. We went in and stood at the bar. The bar man's attitude was so arrogant upon tell us we need to have a table it's table service only. Upon asking how to get a table, he told us to wait in a non existent queue. We sat down while waiting for the hostess to table us. She immediately came over asking what the hell done think we are doing sitting down. I replied, waiting in the queue, to which we where very arrogantly told that she was the Head of the queue. Never been treated like this in any bar in liverpool before, the staffs attitude was awful and ill never return again. Arrogance isn't strong enough to describe them. It's such a shame as the bar looked amazing.

Loved my Caramac cocktail, and the service was great

Love this place! Great for drinks outside in the summer, lovely atmosphere inside at night for a date night/catch up with friends. Gorgeous pasta, cheesey garlic pizza bread is so good it haunts me. Staff are really helpful and accommodating of babies too, went today for lunch with 4 friends + 4 babies and they were so helpful with prams and high chairs etc

A true gem in Liverpool. My friend and I sat indoors and were greeted with lovely and quick service. We ordered the mushroom pasta, focaccia and whipped ricotta, and house salad. All was spectacular. The pasta was homemade and made it the best meal I’d had in Liverpool during my week stay. Plus we ordered two glasses of orange wine and a chocolate tart to finish, which was delectable. If I lived here, I’d make this a regular spot! Highly recommend for locals and travelers alike.

Excellent service and food - spaghetti was amazing, fresh and tasty, this isnt a cheap eats restaurant but you get what you pay for and i would rather pay for lovely quality food and drinks. The staff were amazing, friendly and informative. Nice menu choices and nice wines and beers.

Booked for lunch whilst visiting the University. Buyer’s Club was a very pleasant surprise. Off the street and down a passage and you will find a wonderful oasis. Food was amazing, service was friendly and attentive, atmosphere was wonderful. Didn’t want to leave. I highly recommend one of their pizzas - but I want to return to try everything else on the menu too.

Great place! The Manager Becki was super polite and helpful made it so much better!

went Thursday heard it was nice not over hungry so picked the buyers board was very disappointed bit of meat plonked on the board two tinest pieces of cheese that were rock hard could not cut it and one piece of bread cut in half all for £16 pound was really disappointed need to rethink the content of this as very much overpriced this has no reflection on the two waitresses who were lovely not there fault would not return due to the over inflated prices and small amount of food

Lovely restaurant with a great courtyard. The food and wine is fantastic, fresh pasta pizza and not just your standard classics, really unique flavours and combinations. I had the sausage pasta dish. My partner had duck pasta. Nice selection of wines.

Best vegetarian pizza I've had in quite a while. Really good veggie options on the menu.

Food's not bad if you don't mind yapping dogs.

Wild mushroom tagliolini is really good.

Service was great, the food came just at the right time, the suggested wine dandelion Malbec, perfect. Specials on the menu a real treat, unexpected ingredients and perfect execution. Buyers club is a ten.

Excellent service and food great choice of wine and drinks. Staff knowledgeable about choice.lovely relaxed atmosphere

Update: had another visit ahead of a gig at the Phil. Always perfect. Thanks to everyone at The Buyers Club. Great food and drink, fab surroundings and spot on service. Go there!

Booked a table of 20, which was a very easy process and the waiters were very attentive, even filling up our water jugs without us asking. The food was very good- everyone enjoyed. The tiramisu was a firm favourite for everyone

Hands down the best fresh pasta I’ve had in Liverpool City … Great prices , great wine , lovely staff Hidden gem in Liverpool If you want great food consistently of a high standard then go here !

A few weeks ago, my wife, sister, nephew, and I dined at this somewhat concealed gem tucked away in an alley. Contrary to expectations, the restaurant is surprisingly spacious and modern. The staff was accommodating, though the man with long hair had an unusual distracting wavy walk. Service, overall, was commendable. The menu, of a reasonable size, caters to various diets. For starters, we tried the buyer's house arancini, lasagna bites, and crushed new potatoes. The arancini was good, but the portion seemed a bit stingy with only one piece. The lasagna bites and tatties, however, were enjoyable. As for mains, my wife had the margarita pizza, which was good but possibly lacking in tomato sauce. My sister opted for the roast squash pizza, which didn't impress either of us. Personally, I chose the Cavalo nero, egg yolk, and spaghetti, finding it absolutely delicious and a standout among the other mains. Overall, I'd rate the restaurant a 3/5. The venue's spaciousness, accommodating staff, and a mix of good and average food made it a decent experience, though we found it slightly on the pricey side.

Went for my daughters 16th birthday, we all really enjoyed it. My son's pizza was missed out waitress sorted quickly and took off the bill. Also brought out a slice of cake with a candle for my daughter at no extra charge. Great service, delicious food and great atmosphere.

A little bit disappointed after being recommended here by friends. Charcuterie sharing board was very small (2 pieces of edam, 2 pieces of bread and some meat) for £16 and cutlery was dirty. Pizza was fine. Seemed like a nice atmosphere but maybe better for just drinks.

First visit here after recommended by friends. What a lovely restaurant. Busy but the service was excellent. We loved the food. And can’t wait to come back.

The food here is extremely good as is the service.it was very busy which means it is popular.

Visited this place a few times whilst in Liverpool and can honestly say it’s become one of our favourite places to have a drink. We stumbles across The Buyers Club purely by accident on our way to the Philharmonic Hall and really glad we decided to pop in for a drink before the show. Great and very professional service ever time we’ve been. Lovely atmosphere, especially the outside seating area. We’ve only ever had drinks here but the food passing our table looked amazing. Highly recommend.

A family meal out and the food was excellent.We all really enjoyed it.Very busy and it's easy to see why.The staff were very friendly and the communication was great. Best Tiramisu I've had. A lovely looking building too.

Food is always delicious! Simple food, done really well. Nice relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff

Popped in for lunch, fabulous pizza and arancini balls! Best simple lunch in a long time, delicious. As ever great place even on a quiet Monday.

Amazing staff everyone was really nice and food surprised me so much, vegan pizzas are normally under whelming but these guys have it mastered and the pasta was heavy 💯

Really cool spot to have a nice meal and a few drinks. Food was delicious (I had the Beef Shin ragu and my friend had a Drunk Norma pizza). The staff there were just so lovely. All were super friendly and nailed that tricky thing of getting it just right with how often they were attentive and how often they just let you be. Nice selection of drinks for afterwards too. General ambience was great. If I had to be really picky and find a fault, the only thing I would change would be to maybe have one or two more options on both the pasta and pizza menus. Maybe a chilli free version of a couple of their courses that have a lot of chilli but that is just me being picky as I loved the food I chose, my friend loved what he had and we had a really enjoyable evening there

Disappointing experience. Pizza's luke-warm, yet over-cooked. We hunted out this restaurant arriving early on a Monday (16:30). The place was very quiet, so a great chance to see the courtyard flowers which are really impressive. A big space inside and out. Other reviews, said the best pizza ever, so we were expecting something special.... only to be very disappointed. Staff were perhaps on their break,, but given the place was empty, our service was lacklustre. When the pizzas arrived, they looked good, but were luke-warm and over-cooked at the crust,.... like they had been sitting around for 10 mins while the waiting staff were busy elsewhere.... Other pizzas served to our group were better, looks like we got the duff ones... Shame.

Great restaurant - really accommodating place for a big group of us (we were 11) and unreal food. The mushroom pasta was especially outstanding, and every dish my friends had that I was able to try a piece of was equally delicious. Great portion sizes for the price too. Would definitely go back/recommend!

Lovely place with nice atmosphere and attentive service. Food was disappointing, though. Drunk Norma pizza was tasteless and a bit dry; 'Nduja pasta had a strong fennel seeds taste, but you couldn't taste the 'nduja. I wouldn't recommend this place if you are after good food.

First time visiting and I’m quite taken aback at how good it was! Without doubt one of the best pasta dishes I’ve ever had. The service was perfect. Great wine menu and equally great ambiance. Can’t record enough!

We were going the philarmonic and looking for something to eat and we found this x lovely food 😋 atmosphere great x would definitely recommend 👌

Ate here on Saturday and cannot fault any of it. If you are looking for really good food, some quirky cocktails and lovely service, this is the place to go. Some of the best food I’ve had in a long time !!

This is the second time Iv been to Buyers club. It has really good pasta/pizza. Excellent , quick service.

Served spawning oysters, would not recommend ordering oysters from here. The chef should know better than just to assume their customers will be ok with eating spawning oysters

I went to the buyers club for my birthday meal and really enjoyed it, lovely atmosphere and decor as well as a great outdoor seating area which would be amazing in the sun. Food was fabulous and I would really recommend the chilli prawn spaghetti. Thanks for a great evening!

We had a lovely lunch here. The venue is tucked away on Hardman St and it looks very welcoming and funky. It's a converted warehouse whch looks fab but can get a bit noisy if some of the guests are loud families, which they were when we were there! Food is good, I had tasty belly pork to start then an al dente & very tasty prawn with garlic dish, my friend had brilliant arancini and a delicious risotto. The wine list was short but affordable and with good selections. Liverpool portions! You won't leave hungry. Service is friendly and relaxed. I woudl be happt to go there again.

Not as good as I’m told it used to be. Both the pasta dishes went back? Surely not the most difficult thing to get wrong. The rest of the food was good, drinks good and reasonable value. My daughter who goes regularly says that the chef has changed, not for the better it seems.

Despite being busy they found me a great table. Service was chilled and friendly and the food was great.

My husband and I came to buyers club before going to see a show. We had a terrible time and are so disappointed. The restaurant is beautiful but the service was just so poor. It took ages for my husbands drink to arrive. My pasta dish arrived put my partners pizza still hadn’t. We had to wait a long time before we even saw a waiter/ waitress to ask where the pizza was and she said it would take a further 15mins? Meanwhile my pasta dish was getting cold… she did not offer to get a new pasta dish and did not tell us why the pizza was taking so long. After 25- 30mins of waiting we asked for another pasta dish. The waitress was extremely rude and we will not be returning or recommending the restaurant.

Went for lunch Peggy served us. What a delightful waitress. Love the venue fab outdoor space undercover and heaters . Chilled vibe, amazing lunchtime deal half price pasta pizza . how fantastic is that when prices are going up and here is the buyers club helping us out. Have a lovely lunch new favourite place.highly recommended

I’m 6 months pregnant and met some some friends here. I ordered the chicken Caesar salad. It took over an hour for any food to come. But mine never came. Even though I was the only person on the table without food, none of the waiting staff thought to check if that was correct. Half an hour later my friend asked where it was- it hadn’t been put through. Which is fine it happens. When it came it was terrible. It was a plate of lettuce with watery chicken and heaps and heaps of parmesan. And that’s it. It didn’t even have the dressing on it. So disappointing. The only saving grace was a male waiter who initially sat us outside and when realising I was pregnant found a table for us inside and carried everything in for me.

Pretty awful. Although the wine list was extensive the food menu was limited to half a dozen options. It wasn't possible to have a side salad. My chicken Caesar salad was awful, mainly a plate of lettuce. Service poor. We would have had a dessert...

We visited today . Son had the spaghetti and king prawns. It was Ok.The spaghetti was hard. I had the croquettes. They were OK , not great. They did offer some bread but then over chaarged us. We asked for tap water it never came....

Visited the buyers club today and what a totally delightful place. We booked for 1pm and got a gorgeous table outside in the sun. The staff are fabulous and the food was delicious at such good value. We had the olives, margarita pizza and the...

Great food great space. Don’t change, we love it here.reliable and trusty and we always return. Good menu selection at reasonable prices. Nice relaxed atmosphere. Would be better if the service was a bit faster when sat outside.

Pre théâtre meal with friends, food was good, butter bean starter was lovely, the king prawn spaghetti looked great, unfortunately I chose the chicken pasta, which was nice but a little bland. Pizzas looked good too. Wine was nice and reasonable. Service was good and...

Special meal booked for graduation but after waiting over an hour for food told the order had been lost. Lovely venue and menu let’s hope they sort their staff out as they were very rude.

Super friendly staff, gorgeous setting and tasty food. Second time coming here for food and was gutted the pesto and ricotta pasta I’d had last time wasn’t on the menu but the spaghetti I got this time round was tasty too! Star of the show...

Had high hopes for this place as had been recommended.Only ordering a pizza and two starters asked if they could come out at the same time as we were sharing them , forty minutes later we asked about the food and we were told our...

Amazing food and friendly service - lots of options. Perfect venue. Love the historical setting too - feels really like ‘old Liverpool’.

Nice and tidy food. Would go again

Food amazing!!! Ambiance also good! Nice place to sit and chill.

The pizza is amazing, the pasta is also good. Nice garden/patio and the indoor space is nice too.

Great space...small menu but tasty...starters vould be larger selection, and with pint in-between £4 and £5 better do weathersppons first if on a budget

Our amazing little hide away 😘👍❤

Very short staffed when we visited and food was just average

Cracking place. Fantastic pizzas and good selection of beers, wines, gins etc. Really nice courtyard area, moved inside when it got a bit chilly and was just as nice indoors.
