Childwall Abbey Hotel in Liverpool

Friendly staff, good service , good food plenty of space

I came Childwall abbey for overnight stay and believe me the room was lovely the staff are amazing and tend too your every need, also food is exceptional

I visited on Sunday 26th May 2019 With my wife & 2 sons! I ordered a Gin & Lemonade, this is were it went downhill!! There was no straws, no fruit!!! We then ordered a burger & 3 Chicken Tikka Masalas! We were then told that they didn’t have any rice!!! We re-ordered 2 roast dinners & 1 Tikka Masala with Chips! When the roast dinners arrived we couldn’t believe our eyes! The roast potatoes were actual Aunt Bessie’s frozen potatoes!! The vegetables were cold!! We now are going to find another place to socialise! The standards in the Childwall Abbey have gone down significantly!! I hope you read this and take on board your shortcomings or you are going to lose more custom!!!

We attended for a family funeral. The staff were super helpful and friendly. Buffet was provide and a great selection was available. Would recommend for a function or get together.

You can take your dog with you.

To cut it short, miserable staff, ordered 17 meals they come out at different times over an hour and a half, food was cold, missing toppings some on dishes onion rings etc. wouldn't eat here again.

Visited Sunday 29th September, and had a brilliant time. Great food and great atmosphere. First visit and it won't be our last

We enjoyed the meal with the eldest son and his wife and Rylee the dog.

I held my mothers after funeral get together at the Abbey Hotel and Pub, the staff were excellent, really lovely, understanding and respectful, the facilities perfect and the food very good quality and well presented. It’s a great venue, the environment is excellent and the service exceptional.

With a drive to and from London I wanted a place with character and Childwall certainly fulfilled. Gothic windows and smashed avo in Liverpool v welcome

Great bed. Fantastic view of the church. Very clean.

What a beautiful hotel. You will you entered to a historical place, breakfast was amazing and price was really good!

Stayed here with family as my sons wedding was at the Palm House Sefton park, Childwell Abby Hotel is a lovely pub and accommodation, rooms were bigger than expected, beds are huge, sleeps 3 if thats your thing, only downside in my daughters family room was noise from the water pipes in another room, it sounded as if someone was going down a waterslide but not a big issue, breakfast was extra, but very nice and loads of it, staff lovely, manager couldn't do enough for you, free parking over the road, would definitely stay again if in the area again

Good venue to enjoy nice afternoon with friends.Caberet is good , adds to the atmosphere unfortunately the same can’t be said of the food. On more than one occasion the food has been below standard , it spoils what could have been a great afternoon

Nice pub, better service than under previous ownership, decent pint of Guinness too tbf, can’t go wrong

Angela Murray Social Organiser for Oddfellows holds are meetings hear after noon tea cabaret lunch get together meetings dose a great job and would say all are members think it a nice hotel and pub to visit

Food was lovely staff really nice.

Charlie was very helpful and got us a table as the automative booking system didn’t work properly. She was very pleasant and helpful throughout our meal. Always a pleasure to come back to our local pub.

I used to live in Liverpool but am now "down south". I love to come back when I can and visit a few days a year now, usually connected to LFC games. I stay with a friend and we always visit the Childwall Abbey pub for a couple of drinks. It's got great atmosphere and very good service. Keep up the good work.

Fast service and good atmosphere

Everyone was very pleasant and welcoming. Food was delicious. I would highly recommend the abbey

Great pub , Lovely food. amazing atmosphere.

Very quiet and peaceful atmosphere

Sunday roast is great all freshly cooked and plenty if gravy. Staff very nice and helpful.

Lovely atmosphere, my favourite meal was the chicken and bacon salad, would really recommend 😊

One of the loveliest little venues I have had the pleasure of visiting. The staff were very friendly and extremely helpful when it came to allergen advice for my son. The outdoor space was a hit with the children and overall as a family we enjoyed it and will be returning again soon

The food was lovely, really hot when it came out, good selection of pub classics.

Couldn't recommend enough! It's decor, service and quality is as impressive on the inside as it looks on the outside. Staff were very efficient and the food was amazing, and we can't wait to visit again. Thankyou to all the staff 😀

Staff are exceptional xx we felt really welcome xx

Lovely English Pub,, Great food,, Nice out gardens,, 🍺🥂🍽🏕,,👍,,

Haven't been for year's but all the bad reviews has put us off

Not great. 45 minute wait, which we weren't told about. Not given a child's menu. We had to go and ask at the bar. We had booked a table but we were seated in a kennel. I don't mind dogs in the pub, but we were surrounded by 5, two of which were huge. One little one yapped continuously. I presume there is an area specific for patrons with dogs but we weren't asked if it was OK to sit there. We normally go to the black bull in gatacre and we are always asked if we are ok to sit with animals whilst we eat. The food wasn't great. House salad should have had quinoa and beans in but it was leaves, tomato and cucumber. Childs chicken was overcooked and the chips were lukewarm. 2 stars because staff are hardworking and pleasant

Lovely hotel, great entertainment comfortable rooms and food was lovely

Arrived at 18:15 have pre book table for 18:30. On arrival was not shown to our table instead had to go the bar and was told to just sit anywhere. Did not appeared to be busy so found a nice spot. When going up to order food was warned there was a 40 min wait on food. Decided that was fine and we just get a bar snack while we wait. Main dont come for a hour and food was nothing special for the price. coming up to the two hour mark we decided to leave and get a refund on desserts. I was the 4th table that walked out that day

A very pleasant Sunday lunch, not hurried. staff attentive, overall a nice experience. We will certainly visit again soon

Excellent place for food with a good atmosphere

Very nice-looking pub with a great history. The staff were polite and friendly, and they have a good selection of food at reasonable prices. However, I was disappointed with the wait for food during my visit. It took over 40 minutes to arrive, I'm not sure why, no explanation was offered and it wasn't particularly busy (as far as I could see, we were the only customers eating). Other than that, it was a nice afternoon out."

I visited the childwall abbey this weekend and thought the service was exceptional, the very kind Amelia helped me with any queries I had. Very good experience overall, will be returing.

Been to the childwall abbey hotel today , had a lovely experience. Exceptional work from Tesfa

What a fantastic pub, staff member was very attentive her name was Jordan, very friendly, helpful and professional. Apparently there has been a manager change, I can say there is a definite improvement already since my last visit, I willbe returning without hesitation. My only issue which is nothing to do with management or staff, Marstons please spend some money on a refurbishment it would then be PERFECT 👌

Friendly and welcoming staff. Clean pub. Food was great and great portions!

Third time we have been for lunch and 3 of the items we ordered were not available and this was the fish and scampi these are or where our favorite meals im very unimpressed

My first time staying at the lovely childwall abbey hotel and I must say it was an absolute pleasure as all the staff were so friendly, helpful and accommodating throughout my stay. The manager Steven was ever so kind and gave me some great advice for future stays. I would definitely stay again in the future.

Lovely place relaxing friendly welcoming

I thought the place was well run and almost everything was good considering it was quite busy. If I’m honest I thought the following - Glasses not collected quickly enough meaning bar staff would give out a Stella glass when I’m getting san Miguel- no problem for me, The bar girls seemed to be struggling with the heat in the premises, maybe could of done with a fan behind bar.One female bar staff looked so tired I felt sorry for her.Overall a good visit to your pub .

Fantastic staff and meal,manager was great,will be back soon,great prices and beer,cannot fault anything

Just had brunch in the sun. Vegetarian breakfast. Served by Steven. So polite & nice food. X

Amazing place, decent food and friendly staff

Just has a really wonderful full english breakfast here with drinks and toast included in the price so good value and a friendly service. Well done and thank you ste xx

Service as always is very good before the food arrived. The food was disappointing, especially the chicken burger. No seeded bun. No sauce. No shredded lettuce. Goujons instead of fillet! If we had been asked we would have asked for a refund. The rump steak however was nice. Presentation of the food was poor. Unlikely we will buy food again here.

We went there for something different from our normal pub kids enjoyed themselves food was tasty thanks Patti and ste made us feel welcome

We waiting around 45 mins for a food with no warning of a delay and had to try and catch a waitress' attention to ask for the dessert we ordered. When ordering. When it came, one of the meals had clearly been sitting under a heat lamp as the peas were like shrivelled miniature garden peas and hard and the mash was crisped on the top! Dessert wasn't the best as vegan ice cream was tasteless. Wouldn't go for food again I'm afraid.

Cosy pub with great food and a big beer garden. Not enough staff at busy times leaves a wait at the bar.

Waited over an hr for food, came cold. I don't blame the staff who worked hard, just not enough of them

Lovely place, lovely food, lovely staff!!!

Stayed one night as fully booked for other date. Lovely friendly welcome and very clean room. Breakfast delish! Thank you to Steve the manager very friendly and informative of local history. Already to book our next stay! BW

Food that came was different than what was on the menu, missing onions on three of our meals and sauces on two, one had the wrong salad. No one checked on us while we were eating or when we'd finished. What did come was tasty but can't help but think it would have been much nicer with everything listed on the menu

Very comfortable room. The staff are excellent, nothing is too much trouble. We would highly recommend for a trip to Liverpool.

Really nice hotel, has a nice feel about it, all the staff are really nice and chatty, beds were so comfortable oh it was the best night sleep i’ve had in a while, cleaners were really friendly and helpful, food was amazing and really reasonable priced. really easy to get into the city centre and buses are really straight forward, overall a great experience, room has small amenity’s such as tea trays and hair dryer and soap, would recommend.

Fantastic food and drink, the steak was cooked perfectly and my chicken burger was incredible, highly recommend the Childwall abby to anyone that wants beautiful food and perfectly cold beer

Came in for food while visiting a friend and was met with warm and friendly staff who were super helpful in all aspects. The food was incredible and enjoyed by all in our group!

Can't believe how bad this place has become 3rd time it's been the same hense review roast was disgrace all veg burnt no carrots or seasonal veg just burnt parsnips and peas beef burnt spuds uncooked? Staff no tabs available ? No carling no cruzcampo. No horseradish sauce for beef roast again first sign of maddness is going back and expcting change? But more fool us won't be back spending 100 pounds for family 3rd time bad experience. TABLES STICKY .Elephants up road same price service and food 2nd to none. Disappointed as was always great pub.

Lovely breakfast and lovely staff

Excellent pub, excellent staff, lovely garden, support your local, bring on some sunshine and enjoy their beer garden. Give it a go

Amazing food and fab staff. Will definitely be back!!!

Lovely food, great atmosphere and helpful staff

Lovely visit sat in beer garden, friendly atmosphere, our dog made friends, food was quick and so lovely. Staff super helpful we had a great time .

Only went in with dog for a drink.

Just a fantastic 2 night stay, special shout out to the 2 Stephen’s and Elle , but each and every member of staff was polite and courteous and very helpful answering questions. Food was good and served with a smile. Thought it was an excellent value for money stay and would recommend people stay here and take the very short train ride direct into Lime street from Broad Green station. 5* for our stay

Popped in for family meal , staff very friendly food and service great.

Great food, everyone helpful , beautiful garden , kids loved the play area.

Visited with my family for our lunch. Very friendly welcome and service was excellent. The pub is a beautiful building with so much history. Felt very at home and personable, we will be back!

If you want to experience England in its pure essence, you need to stay in a historic building, it's dry outside, the room is warm and cosy. Beautiful green environment. There are many connections to the center, or parking at the accommodation. There are groceries nearby and the hotel cooks. I recommend it.

Had a wonderful time!! What an amazing family & dog friendly pub. Not many left so happy its local to us

Nice clean environment and polite staff.

Absolutely friendly staff and atmosphere

Called in for a Sunday roast, food was not good and not worth the price charged. Yorkshire pudding was actually more like a mangled pancake and they didn't have any condiments such as horseradish to serve with the beef. Plates were plonked and server was too busy to be concerned if we were happy or not. Will not be dining in there again.

I don’t know where to start really. We arrived and there was nobody to greet us. We had to walk around for about 5 minutes before we could find a member of staff and tell them we had arrived. We sat at our sticky table and chose from the sticky menu. I ordered the mains, desserts and drinks. The drinks were left on a tray on the bar. When I went over to order an additional dessert the bar staff said “those are your drinks you know” and pointed to the tray. The mains arrived and they were nice and the server was pleasant and friendly. We finished our mains and were left about 15 minutes before the desserts arrived, after I had to chase them up. The desserts (sticky toffee pudding) had very hard diced toffee on top which was almost inedible. I felt sorry for the staff because they were clearly lacking in numbers. However the pub wasn’t busy. To be honest given the look and feel of the website and the character of the building my hopes were high but my experience didn’t live up to expectations. It’s such a shame. An iconic building that I took my mum to for her 88th birthday meal, which was the venue for her wedding reception and the renewal of her vows. Sadly I won’t be returning and wouldn’t recommend it to anyone.

Food is ok, service good. But the vibe and atmosphere is fantastic. Love this place.

Food was freezing when it came, chips were hollow, burnt and when i asked for replacement chips they were the same, paid for a burger that wasn't hot either, partner had the chilli it was watery, wont be eating there again

No steaks no fish totally chaotic service. We both had to accept a third choice on our orders . Even the desert wich was given for free because of the terrible service was a third choice and too 40 minutes to arrive. The food we got eventually was good but we waited so long the meal was spoilt. The person I spoke to behind the bar was trying very hard but if you can't get the initial supply side sorted then everything else is going to be battling up hill. What should have been a relaxing evening meal for an hour turned into a two hour ordeal .

Ordered surf and turf- steak too tough, no mushrooms, no onion rings, nor my extra sides. Waiter offered mixed grill, which missed similar sides and still didn’t grt my extra sides that I ordered. I give up, won’t be going there again. A pity, this could really be something this pub

Good beer and food, quality pub still holding its own. Long may it continue

Lovely place, lovely staff, great food

Traditional pub with a warm friendly atmosphere. Pints and bottles roughly £5 each. Typical cheap pub grub like a wetherpoons. Took 40 mins for a curry and a burger. Nothing special but it's edible. Decent sized beer garden with lots of seats, bowling green, dog friendly, kids play area.

Food luke warm, took it home to the dog. Didn’t want to say anything as staff showed no interest and never asked. Plus if we complained we would have wait longer.

Looks lovely from the outside 50kwh EV chargepoint in car park. Breakfast acceptable. Dinner horrible - over micro waved lasagna. Room very tired and cramped with extra single bed that was not requested. Only one double powerpoint miles away from mirror.

This is our second local and it is a nice cosy place with friendly staff. Food is good too.

Wonderful stay! My third time staying at the abbey and the staff are a delight. Food is excellent! Plenty to drink! The rooms - kept well maintained and comfy beds. 10/10

Lovely friendly atmosphere with a great bar & very nice staff!

Great place to stay. Very friendly and helpful staff. Well recommended.

Our fabulous local pub with a friendly atmosphere and loads of space inside and out.

Friendly staff, lovely atmosphere, reasonable prices. Will come again!

Bring back the old management, place has lost all atmosphere and service was poor. And the place was messy, empty tables full of glass and bar was not stocked

A busy night, full to the brim, lovely atmosphere, great people

Just got back from a 2 night stay. Really pleased and will definitely be staying again on another visit to Liverpool. We had the family room. Nice and clean and warm. Beds comfy. We had breakfast on the 2nd morning. Really nice and fresh. Dave and his wife couldn't do enough for us. Very friendly and chatty. Thanks very much. See you again.

I pre booked a table , I must admit we were stood waiting to get attention of bar staff, as no other staff around . We were told they be with us in a mins , but we waited a while to be seated . This didn’t take away from our experience in the long run, but the lad behind the bar wasn’t the most helpful.

We visited for lunch about 3 weeks back and the food was excellent, fresh and hot. Our last visit was Saturday 16th March and the service was ok, apart from food delivered just warm, fish batter a bit on the burnt side, peas cold. Chicken dish was disappointing, hardly any chicken Luke warm. Had to ask for sauces that should have arrived with the meals. I'm afraid to say it was not good value for money.

Lovely little place, went there for a funeral reception. I believe the Beatles played there when they where the quarry men, although I didn't see any sign of them promoting that fact. Nice atmosphere, and very relaxing.

Went today 17th March 2924 for family meal , food was cold , no table service, DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!!!!
