Carpathia Champagne Bar & Restaurant in Liverpool

This restaurant is truly amazing - wined & dined in here many times and never had a bad experience- always fantastic!!

Great views over Liverpool City centre. The building has a fascinating history.

Went bank holiday Sunday may 5th, 16 of us thought we would go gor a couple of hours, got there at 2.30 got a list together and went to the bar, barman rolled his eyes at having to do 16 drinks, several they couldn't do as they had ingredients missing such as no grenadine, we got our drinks 40 mins after I ordered them. Been here several times but I won't be going again lots of better places to go,they should consider getting staff who want to work in the hospitality industry.

Paid for breakfast got up ready and sign on lift to say sorry closed due to unforseen circumstances, Peter and Kim very apologetic. Peter always very kind and lovely.

Took my mum here for her Birthday afternoon tea on Sunday. I would recommend it - unlimited tea and coffee. Lovely filled sandwiches, beautifully presented tasty cakes plus fruit scone, individual jams and clotted cream. We were stuffed by the end. All for a reasonable price £30 for two. Fantastic views across the Albert Dock and down the estuary from the rooftop.

I was at a wedding everything was good except one of the lifts had broken down so only one in operation with only holding 4 at a time made it a bit awkward to get up and down from ground floor to floor 7

Afternoon tea was fantastic, great singer. Location superb

Breakfast looked good but wasn't hot, I was disappointed in that. I have to add the staff where really nice.

Had a lovely meal and a cocktail I had fish my daughter's had steak it was lovely thank you

Spot on to spend some time with friends.

Interesante, pero no de los mejores rooftops. Carta acotada, no muchas opciones. Bastante descuidado. El servicio parece como si estuvieran haciendote un favor. Hay mejores lugares en Liverpool. La vista es buena pero de costado. Un edificio enorme tapa la mejor vista de la bahia.

Friendly staff and great view from the top. Been with friends for a coffee.

Very friendly staff and the cocktails were very good and an average price. Fabulous view from the roof terrace. We used the lift up but came back down via the stairs. Lots of historic photos with interesting facts on the way down.all the

What a disappointing place. Looks like it should be quite upmarket but is actually trashy. No food available. The barman was dozing as on a chair as we walked in. Standing at the bar ordering drinks, the staff were effing and blinding. The toilets were filthy. All in all not a place to visit.

Great place, loads of history. Only stopped for a coffee, but would visit again

Friendly staff, great view outside, lovely place to visit for a drink or cocktail. I can't recommend the restaurant, the food was not great. Steak was full of gristle and overcooked burger was ok but nothing special with a small choice on the menu. Given the location there are many other much better restaurants around for the same price or less.

Great cocktails and great views

OK experience if just for those breath taking views from the viewing balcony from the top floor bar and restaurant 👍👍

Lovely rooftop bar great drinks great service highly recommend we had espresso martini was great.

Never ate food. Brilliant place, will be back.

lovely little roof top bar on top of 30 James st. cocktails were £8-9 ,a few weren't available on the day,but a decent range decent prices for view etc. Nice view of Albert Dock friendly helpful staff,

Great view, reasonably priced.will go again

Awesome, veiws, drinks, prices.

I went in on a whim as I had a few hours to kill before catching my train back home and I must say that I was really impressed with the quality of the cocktails, and the bartender was so nice and knowledgeable in recommending cocktails to perfectly suit my tastes.🍸 I'll definitely give it another try next time I'm Liverpool.

I only had breakfast here, as the restaurant was closed 😩. The breakfast was lovely and being a buffet breakfast you could serve yourself. Hot coffee was brought to the table and the veg sausages where really tasty . The restaurant is in the rooftop bar area, with stunning views 👌 😍

Good selection of food and cocktails all reasonable prices. Nice rooftop bar with lovely view

Fantastic view's of Liverpool drinks expensive but worth it for the view

Food excellent.....room various things didn't work......no tv remote....rang staff ,little unpleasant. Kettle on the floor.remote still didn't work. Advantage near to museums etc.

Not very helpful staff told don't serve pints of beer which they did I found out later and didn't receive discount which I was told to show my room card for discount will not revisit this bar.

Nice view, will be back soon,

Fantastic cocktails. We really liked the daiquiri and martini. Bar man was lovely and very attentive.

Great view from the rooftop bar, girls behind the bar were so friendly especially Eve. Great cocktails. we will return

Lovely place to have evening cocktails. Great views of the docks at the top of an historic landmark. Highly recommended.

Very nice Bar and Restaurant to pop in.

What a lovely view, excellent cocktails and the breakfast was great too

Friendly bartender. Tasty cocktails and great view.

The staff were friendly and helpful, if not massively knowledgeable about cocktails. (They had to check the recipe and point at bottles.) The views from the balcony were amazing and the bar was cosy. We also used the restaurant for our breakfast (we stayed in the hotel) nice selection of foods and quite tasty.

Absolutely disgusted with this place.. I booked an afternoon tea for today (09.04.22) for my birthday i booked a couple of months before as I know its grand national weekend they took my deposit ( which still has not been refunded to my bank!!) , I contacted them know about two weeks ago I had a person drop out to change the table to 6. The reply was you should not of been able to make that booking when did you book it & we are only taking bookings over 15, which left me with no where to go & too late to book anywhere else. I even read they had some mixed reviews about slow service etc but I like to give places the benefit of the doubt however I wish I had took the advice because if I hadn't contacted them they wouldn't of let me know till 7 days before that my booking was cancelled, this has ruined my plans. They said they weren't doing very well I'm not surprised, absolute joke of an establishment!! Very unprofessional, not happy

Took mum for afternoon Tea, it was a lovely afternoon, plenty of cakes and sandwiches to choose from, staff were really nice and made sure we were having a nice time, will definitely go back

Even though we made a reservation, when we arrived the person at reception insisted for at least 5 minutes that we could not have booked because they only take large bookings. When she decided to finally check the system she discovered that we actually did have a booking. We planned to visit here for cocktails to only discover you could not just have drinks in the restaurant. Considering this we were invited to sit outside on the terrace despite being 10 degrees and having no heating. Even if they did have heating I would not have stayed. The terrace area was shabby and totally uninviting! The metal furniture was dirty and completely rusted. Possibly the worst experience I have EVER had!!!

Popped in for a drink. Friendly staff, especially Nigel who gladly showed us a video of the room quality, even offered to show us a room if we wished to see them; unfortunately we didn't have time but will be returning. He was very passionate about what the hotel had to offer, which made a refreshing change.

Attentive staff, outstanding food and service with stunning view x

The owner was really nice and the place is amazing. The view really worth it and the prices are very good

Great night with family. Great food and waiting on staff were brilliant 👏 would definitely recommend.

Lovely view cocktails was a bit weak though interesting history

Sooooo disappointed with the menu. One sheet of poorly printed, crumpled paper. Definitely not the one I found on the website which included steaks, burgers and various fish dishes. Such a limited choice of about 6 mains. The waiter said that you get a different menu if you’re staying there. I said I didn’t see anywhere that explained that because if I’d have known I wouldn’t have booked. Even the drinks menu had only a choice of 3 or 4 white wines. No Prosecco! What’s that all about? Booked for my 60th so was such a let down as my friends and I had been so looking forward to it. Two stars are for the food and excellent service. Felt like 2nd class citizens. Would love an explanation as to why they do this. I’m considering contacting them direct. Would definitely not return or recommend.

Danny the bar tender was amazing, all the staff were nice though. Would definitely go back and definitely recommend the service we recieved, especially from Danny

Stunning food and amazing service. Worth every penny.

Pretty basic all round. Afternoon tea for three of us. Tea pots for both tea and coffee. One cake stand with scones on top tier, tasteless, middle tier had sandwiches for one of us and bottom tier cakes for us all. 2 of us got a separate side plate each with a few sandwiches. We each had a different number of sandwiches. Young staff, polite enough, but not much presence and bit muddled with having part cash part card payment. We're from Liverpool, but certainly wouldn't be taking a visitor/tourist here. Quite disappointing.

We went for the tea. Nice terrace and lovely little desserts. Definitely not what I was expecting in terms of quantity of food given the price (four little bits of sandwich each and a few desserts). Took ages to get our drinks and then once she delivered the food, our server was nowhere to be found for the rest of our visit. Absolutely bare minimum service. Also would have expected a nice loose-leaf tea or something (again, given the price) but it looked like a standard Yorkshire tea bag in the pot. Would not recommend!

Nice food with good options available. Lovely view from the restaurant and optional outdoor seating if the weather is good. Would recommend a visit, even if its for afternoon tea during the day.

The atmosphere, staff and tea were fantastic. Staff couldn't do enough even brought extra sandwiches. The desserts are gorgeous. Definitely go again. Worth every penny.

Deeply disappointed. The food was horrible. The offered us instant coffee and the afternoon tea is definitely not worth the price.

Food and cocktails were nice, we sat inside rather than on the terrace as its only small and other guests were smoking.

Few drinks on the outside roof terrace great view across to the Royal Albert Dock

Very disappointed menu northing like we expected .more like a cafe menu than hotel ,/restaurant.

Stayed over on boxing night. The cocktails were nice. Food was average. My boyfriends meal arrived when I had nearly finished mine. Service was shocking - had to ask to have our plates removed and waiters must have walked past us 6 times without asking if we needed another drink. Another issue was that we ordered two pornstar martinis before getting the bill. We were not told that there was no Prosecco when ordering and were still charged £7.50 each for the drinks. Expected a lot more due to the reputation the restaurant has. Felt like the staff couldn’t wait to get rid of us!

No nos quedamos aquí en el hotel, pero hemos venido a cenar por 2 noches ya que el servicio y la comida han sido increíbles y todo el personal ha satisfecho todas nuestras necesidades, nuestros camareros Johnny y Anthony nos hicieron sentir muy cómodos y como en casa aquí y nos gustaría agradecerles personalmente: D

I was looking to find a brilliant restaurant for my fiancee's 30th Birthday right pub and restaurants re-opened. Having trawled for a while to find somewhere that was open we managed to book Carpathia for 8pm on Monday 6th July - got confirmation online and checked the website stating "Reopening 4th July" so thought all was well. Arrived for the meal to find the gates locked with a number attached - the number does not work and there was no notice on the website that you would be open. I appreictae signature living have gone into administration in part but if you're not open don't take bookings & don't say you're open online.

Mi esposo reservó este restaurante para el almuerzo durante una visita sorpresa a Liverpool. Personal muy amable, con ganas de agradar. Solo menú disponible a la hora del almuerzo (opción limitada) pero buena relación calidad-precio. Buenos menús de bebidas, a un precio muy razonable. Es una pena no poder ir a la terraza de la azotea en un hermoso día soleado, pero se explicó que el área exterior necesitaba un poco de trabajo para que fuera segura antes de abrir en la primavera. No me apresuraría a volver pero un almuerzo agradable (advertencia, los baños son compartidos y no son agradables, ¡baja las escaleras!)

Great service, amazing food and lovely place

Lovely place, very sophisticated, great ambiance and history. Visited on a Friday evening, Al a carte menu which although limited was a nice choice. Singer on too giving a nice relaxing evening

Brought my wife for a meal on valentines and it was out of this world good I had the faggots which were to die for the little clear sauce bit really was amazing my wife had the scallops which she loved that much she wouldn’t share for mains we both had the pork which again was amazing very tender and not to fatty for dessert she had the French toast and I had the cheese board they took a while to come but just have us time to get another drink and listen to the singer. A perfect night

We have stayed in the past and enjoyed our stay, however this time we came for the special valentine's menu. It was terrible. The staff were helpful and friendly and couldn't be faulted but the food was terrible. The portion sizes weren't consistent with my starter (the best thing I ate) being small and the cheese board being enough for 6 people (lack of biscuits though). The rest was inedible, especially the chips! It ruined our valentine's day and we both left feeling hungry and disappointed. I could make better at home, dont waste your money.

Visited the restaurant for afternoon tea on 15th feb. The food was gorgeous! The scones especially with fresh clotted cream. Nothing was too much for the team working here, Dave serving us was amazing. his customer service skills were second to none. Thank you for a lovely afternoon!

Visited here with my girlfriend for lunchtime. The staff here are wonderful and seem to go above and beyond to make you feel as welcome as possible. Our server was a gent called Dave and he was truly amazing. We chose the afternoon tea and was not disappointed. What a wonderful experience will definitely visit again next time I’m in the city.

Treated my girlfriend to the £89 per couple valentines night at the Carpathia Restaurant, 30 James Street! The restaurant decor was nice, however the live entertainment; guy singing acoustic guitar could barely be heard and it sounded like he was just humming all night! He also didn’t know any James Arthur, Lewis Capaldi or James Blunt songs? This guy was disappointing and then the staff told me there was no further entertainment on after 9pm, despite the hotel advertising live music until 1pm - clearly a case of false advertising! The free glass of Prosecco was provided upon arrival, however, I had to ask for the free chocolates which then come during the starter? This was more like a desert with a blob of cream and strawberry’s coated in chocolate! The food was poor with the main course (steak) being undercooked! I asked for medium cooked steak but was presented with a very rare looking steak. I sent it back to the kitchen but they obviously only had a ‘cook’ and not a ‘chef’ working as the steak reappeared very burnt and still very red in the middle (see photographs)! We decided to pass on the desert due to my girlfriend feeling put off by the undercook jelly-like steak! Overall, this experience was very overrated, very over priced and very disappointing! Will not be re-visiting this venue and would not recommend!

Bar looks run down, very expensive, rudimentary bar furniture, little atmosphere and lighting is extremely poor. Very disappointed.

We had a very enjoyable lunch with stunning views over the city at the Carpathia. The food was delcious and the service from Wendy was excellent, she was very friendly and you could tell she loved her work and cared that we were having a good time.

The views from the rooftop bar were spectacular and the staff were friendly and fantastically accommodating, especially our waiter Anthony, who served us high tea, and a young lady at the bar who chilled our champagne to the perfect temperature.

Had dinner here but underwhelming. Looking at the reviews and website thought it would be a change to sit amongst some maritime bits and pieces, however the quality of food let the place down.

First time here Saturday afternoon. My friend and I called in for a cocktail. The bar area is decidedly underwhelming and just felt lacking in its finish. Just a few seats and hardly makes the most of the view. We asked at the bar if we could order a cocktail that wasn’t on the rather limited menu and given a flat out ‘No’ which rather surprised and disappointed us.

We had an awful meal firstly our table was sticky and the paper napkin was stuck to the table and that wobbled

Had a fabulous afternoon tea staff amazing

Wedding Anniversary Dinner with fantastic food and excellent service ; Andy the maitre d’ was so lovely, letting us on the closed terrace for some photos too. Kind to the kids as well with ‘tester’ mocktails that the 8yr old thought had nettles in (was mint ) Great history of the building and good views across Liverpool and to the Wirral. Definitely recommend for somewhere a bit special and different.

Excellent food wine service and venue, staff polite and professional. Views over Liverpool are stunning

Stayed at the hotel and so got a 50% off deal for food and drinks. There was little choice as the main menu not on. We nearly left but decided to stay as we were starving. Well I’m glad we did, the food was delicious! Really really good. The girls who work there are lovely too. I have a lot of allergies and they were very good. Would recommend and go back if there was a deal. A bit pricey otherwise.

Good starter and great welcome and service. Can be slow when it gets busy but would atil recommend

Food in the restaurant was fabulous served by lovely Olivia who was knowledgeable about the wine and the food. We then went into the bar and Kelsey served us fantastic cocktails. You will see us again.

Attentive service, tasty food, good value for money on tbh.

Lovely Resturant for Christmas Day. Lovely set 5 course meal and lovely staff couldn’t fault it. Great views of the city too. Highly Recommend it

Table for 9, Christmas Party booking, food pre-ordered several weeks in advance, advised the day before the event that the food we'd ordered wouldn't be available because the Christmas menu was now in place. Turned out the food order had been accepted but should not have been, of course it wasn't the restaurant to blame! Then despite the corrections having been made, two of the dishes were unavailable?

Diner with a party of 18 for a family catch up, food and service Both amazing! Olivia looked after us and made sure everything went perfectly, she also helped arrange birthday plates for a belated birthday surprise! Food was amazing as always, the whole family raved about the beef and Eton mess!

A brilliant place to eat, drink and have afternoon tea. The history of the Titanic all around is fascinating.

Got in at 18:40 after rushing to get here and ready

We visited Carpathia with some friends a few days ago. What’s should have been a special evening was spoilt by clumsy service and average food . The staff were very friendly but kept making mistakes . Incorrect starters meaning we are our starters at different time . wrong potatoes , Tough beef - the list goes on .

Menu offered lots of variety, food was delicious, exceptional staff made the visit stand out. Great atmosphere.

We came into Carpathia for Lunch before shopping in Liverpool and I have to say it was gorgeous. We both had the burger and ordered a side of halloumi fries. Dave was our server and we couldn’t ask for better service. We both had the white chocolate orange martinis too which was recommended by the barman and we were not disappointed. Definitely going to come again.

Friendly staff, good food, atmosphere, history

Me and my friends try to catch up at least once ever two months. This time for our Christmas catch up we came to Carpathia, what an amazing night we had. As we had called up in advance and told the staff it was our Christmas catch up they made us feel extra special as they put us in there stunning private dining room with amazing views of Liverpool docks, name cards and an amazing surprise to finish our meal. I would like to thank Rebecca Penny Rebecca Hamilton and Clio for making this name extra special

The afternoon tea was lovely with great service from Olivia! Thanks a lot!!!

Disappointing, worn interior staff walking through main areas dragging rubbish bags

The staff is amazing. The view excellent. The food regular for the price

Loved it here, will be coming back, hopefully sooner rather than later

Beautiful place but the worse service I’ve ever had. Booked the table for 18:30 for 4 people. 2 of us arrived on time and other 2 was running 15 minutes late. We been told on our arrival that we only had 1:45 on the table as they were “ busy”. As soon we sat down ordered drink and still waiting for the other 2 friends. The waitress came to our table every 2 minutes asking if we were ready to order the food and we kept repeating that we were still waiting for the other 2 friends, then she kept coming back every few minutes asking the same thing. It is was very unpleasant as we were feeling under the pressure. Food was very average and my friends rib-eye was the same as weatherspoons, she said, dry , over done. Our meal was ok but nothing special.

My friends and I had a bad experience at this place. Second time at Carpathia and definitely the last. In my first visit I was not impressed with the food. Second visit and the food was from average to bad and the service was poor. We had to rush to order and eat despite having to return one of the dishes to the kitchen. Our hope to have a few drinks was spoiled by how quickly we had to vacate the table although there were several empty tables at the restaurant. Our evening certainly was not what we expected, real shame.

Evening meal in the restaurant while staying at 30 James Street. Everything we ordered was lovely as was the wines we chose. Not expensive and would eat here again even without staying in the hotel. Views of the city were lovely too.

Went for a meal last night.service was excellent.my wife and I both had cocktails,and a delicious 3 course meal.can highly recommend and we will be back.

We arrived for a meal last Saturday on a cold wet miserable day, looking forward to some good food and drinks.

the food and service was much below the level you would expect from a hotel like this. Our server was lovely and i can't fault her but she was clearly working alot of tables on her own. Sandwiches were dry like they had been left out a while
