Four Winds Restaurant in St. Helens

What a fabulous meal we enjoyed last evening. Food, drinks, service, music were all first class. We were amazed that they could serve approx 200 people with hot food. Fast service at the bar too, with plenty of friendly bar staff. And we had a lovely 'full english' breakfast in the morning.

I was invited to a wedding anniversary cellebration at the golf club. The staff very helpful, with the drinks served well and with a smile. The buffet food was very good with a mixture of hot and cold offerings, all very well presented. The views from the golf club are amazing. Thank you

We had the dog in tow so sat outside on the terrace. This was no hardship since it was a nice day and there were clear views towards Liverpool and the Welsh hills beyond. Service was friendly and whilst I can’t comment on the cake situation, the “build your own” Deli board was tasty and inexpensive. Overall, a pleasant experience to be repeated.

Poor selection and a very tired looking restraunt. Staff seemed uninterested and food was mediocre at best.

Very poor selection of cake, 2 types to be exact, possibly the worst Victoria Sandwichcake I’ve ever tasted, will not be returning.

Me and my husband went for afternoon tea for his birthday ! We was greeted by unwelcoming staff ! The place is freezing cold ! The decor is like something from the 1980s. We ordered the afternoon tea of hot drink and 3 cakes ! We where told to pick them from a tiny fridge in the middle of the restaurant which only had a selection of four cakes anyway !!??? So when the cakes where served I took a bite from a pice of gateau and the smell and taste from the cake was like vomit ! The cream or cake had gone off ! We told a female member of staff who said “yes it’s been left out as there was a function !!!! She didn’t seem concerned at all, the hygiene standard in this tea room is unacceptable, I have never been served anything like this absolutely shocked to think that they are actually getting away with this disgusting stay away at all cost !!!!!!!!!!! Be warned

Came to 50 Shades of Cake today to look for a potential baby shower venue. We booked a table for 2 and advised the staff that we didn't like fish so not to add it to our order. We booked the afternoon tea, I must say it's the best one I have had! There was enough sandwich cake ratio and the scones was lovely! Selina was our waitress, she made sure we was looked after. Once we had finished our tea we asked about potentially holding the shower there. Selina got us an apt with the manager straight away so we could discuss ideas etc.... really looking forward to going back and would highly recommend the place.

Thought I would try afternoon tea, after reading previous review about this" little gem." What a disappointment. We had booked for afternoon tea thinking we would maybe get a delicious selection of finger sandwiches and creamy lovely cakes. Instead we got 1/2 tuna sandwich each, a small filled croissant, a rather dry ham bun. 1 dry scone 1/2 cupcake each, 1 piece of shortbread and a pot of tea. At £14.95 expected at least 1 whole cake each. This may sound petty but thought, as previously described that might have got a good selection and not what seemed to be leftovers. The only good things were the views across Cronton and the waitress, both very pleasant on the day. Would not be returning

Lunchtime visit , had the Deli board which was yummy , can choose your own selection to go on it Coffee very nice , staff friendly Didn't have dessert so can't comment on choice of cakes etc Lovely place , great view over Cronton Places to sit out if weather good

Expecting creamy, gooey, chocolate, fruity, scrumptious selection. There were in fact 4 sandwich cakes and scones. Where were the other 45? Coffee served in tea pot and weak to the point of tasteless. Lunch menu not very exciting either. Won't bother with the effort of getting there again.

Had afternoon tea here 7 July there where 13 of us and it was a lovely afternoon, food and service where excellent and all enjoyed The experience. The restaurant no longer serves meals and I think the profile needs updating to mention this.

I almost don't want to let more people know about this fabulous place to go for an afternoon tea experience, because it's still quite new and not oversubscribed. But once people hear how great the cakes, sandwiches and other light bites on the menu for afternoon are, it will become extremely popular. The staff are very welcoming and attentive. Nothing is too much trouble. The prices are very reasonable and good value for money. If you find you have more cake or sandwiches than you have room for, the staff very kindly box them up for you to take away with you. You can also just pop in for a tea or coffe if you are passing and be assured of the same welcome. The views over the golf course and up to the Welsh hills are beautiful on a sunny day. Give this place a try and treat yourself. It's lovely. The car park could do with being a bit bigger though.

The family (8 in total) were booked in for 3 pm. The majority got their starter at 3.50. One of our party ordered soup, which was cold when it arrived. No starter for young children, other than tomato soup. Two guests did not get any starter until we brought it to the attention of the waitress. By this time the remainder of the party had finished. We were invited up to the carvery at 4.55, but by this time the vegetables were cold. We asked for a jug of water, but it did not arrive. Our order for the pudding was taken at 6 pm. After waiting a considerable length of time the waiter returned to inform us that our order had been lost and could we repeat it. Other guests on adjacent tables also passed comment on the lack of organization, poor customer service and inadequate staffing. Two tables said that they would not be going there again.

Is at Bluundleshill golf club and is typical of a golf club restaurant. Not my style but ok for those who want to pose and talk to the golf set! Not cheap.

I have been organising our work's Xmas do's and was blown away at how fantastic our evening was at this venue. We were a party of 31 and were all seated at the same table. Our food choices were laminated and placed on the table. The food came out with military precision, delicious, plentiful and hot. The staff were attentive and friendly. The entertainment was brilliant and suited everyone's taste. Overall a fantastic night and look forward to doing it again in 2017! Thank you 😆

We booked Blundells Hill for our annual works Christmas night out after receiving a flyer! I am very glad we did! The man who helped me with the complicated process of booking and payments mike was lovely!! Very impressed with the range of alcohol included in the offer! Including desperado!! The food came out pritty swiftly and was defiantly home cooked! It was plentiful and very nice! It was a very good night out! The only down side would be that there were no games so every table kept themselves to them selves! Didn't like that our party was placed over 2 tables but I think if we book again I'll ask for a big table and to be near the dance floor!

26 of us went for my nieces 18th birthday party, it was absolutely disgusting!! cold soup, cold bread roll even though advertised as warm, the main arrived it was bland, veg cold, some of us had carrots on our plate some didn't!!! the meat was supposed to be roast beef it was definitely out of a packet thin and tasteless!! soggy yorkshire pudding!! The best was yet to come!! They ran out of Banoffe pie and the only alternative dessert was creme brulee, this was warm and the texture had split therefore it resembled scrambled egg, there was two members of staff serving us carrying out two plates at a time, some of us had eaten whilst some of us still waiting!! Do not go it was the worst meal i've ever had it ruined the ocassion

Brought my mum here as a special treat and we were not disappointed! It was the most amazing day from start to finish. We were both made welcome by a friendly waitress called Lindsey and were both given FREE gifts from the Body shop WOW I wasnt expecting that! The food was amazing, mum had the steak and I had the salmon both served beautifully and very well presented I hasten to add. All in all a very pleasant day for my mum and I would definitely recommend it to visitors to the area if I did get asked. Massive well done to the management and staff and also a massive well done to the chef as it was quite busy yet they still managed to serve everyone enjoying their Mothers Day lunch! Not sure on others leaving negative feedback though? I have always eaten at this establishment as I the enjoy golf course with it's fantastic views. would definitely recommend to friends and family.

Brought my mum here for a mothers day meal. We were greeted by a friendly waitress and given free gifts by the body shop. It was a nice change to a normal pub lunch and the food was delicious. Not sure if the people below were eating at the same place as me, but would definitely recommend!

Went to four winds to celebrate Mother's Day - the food was disgusting - most people were complaining. It ruined what was supposed to be a special day! We will not be returning!

have been to a lot of sportsmans dinners at blundells hill over the years and always enjoyed an evening with the lads, suited and booted and a few beers and a good laugh!have to be honest and say last weeks was the worst ever !! not the speaker or the comedian but the food(or lack of it) . the tables were ten on each and £40 a head which isnt a problem and i would estimate about 12 or 13 tables, so about 120 plus. the menu said lamb henry served on a bed of mash, well it wasnt, we were served a piece of lamb on a plate which i have to say was very nice . then the vegetables came , one tray of potatoes( about 2 per person) and a tray of veg. a few carrots , bit of cauli and brocolli and a portion of mash! 3 spoons of mash and it was all gone and lucky to get a couple of bits of veg and one gravy boat ! you would have struggled to make up 5 decent portions, and this was for 10 MEN !dessert was 12 crackers 1 apple cut in half, small pot of chutney, bit of celery about 3 grapes each and a few small pieces of cheese! you would struggle to make 3 portions! if we would have been in a restaurant we would have sent it back . looking forward to our next sportsmans dinner. but NOT AT BLUNDELLS HILL !!!!! VEGETABLES COST HARDLY ANYTHING, WHY SCRIMP???

Lovely roast dinner and friendly waitess. Booked a table fr 4 and had starters and mains. Would definitely go here again

We have been here many of times for Sunday lunch and special occasions. It is a lovely restaurant with excellent food, a great price, very good service with very friendly staff.

Don't bother unless you like 1980's tinned food, and 'breadded place' nothing for veggies, greasy pizza, although the ice cream Sunday ( not sundae) was fine Staff were nice though, chef needs to buy some cookery books from this decade!

I went with my Sisters in law and their partners for a family catch up. This was not to celebrate any special occasion but I would certainly book it again for such an event the Restaurant was so good. There are a couple of professional restaurants in the area and I have tried them and they were good, however The Four Winds is head and shoulders above the local competition. I would go as far to say you would be hard pushed to find a restaurant in the wider Merseyside area that offered food as good without paying a Kings ransom for it.There is a choice of A La Carte and set Menu. The set menu has a good range of dishes offering three courses for less than £20. We went for the A La Carte and were able to get superb Mains for an average price of £17. The Chef has clearly taken time to create dishes that are full of flavour and use his skills to great effect. Would you have Steak with a Chocolate Sauce? Would you expect ice cream with Duck? I can honestly say, and this a serious statement, the meal I had at the Four Winds Restaurant has got to be the best meal I have ever had. Will I be going back? You just try and stop me.

The Four Winds is a restaurant attached to a golf course, on a hill, with spectacular views in a quiet location. Eight of us went for a family meal on Easter Sunday. The restaurant was empty apart from us, although the bar was busier. On our visit we sat outside for drinks in the sunshine before going in to eat.The waitress was attentive and professional. The decor is simple, the furniture too. The place is very clean and well groomed, the grounds well kept. Onto the food...absolutely gorgeous. Hot, fresh and delicious. There was a four course Easter special for £22pp which was excellent value. I started with scotch egg on black pudding followed by lamb shank with a toffee bread and butter pudding to finish. Between the starter and main there was a raspberry sorbet pallet cleanser. Everything was delicious. I had no complaints. The presentation was excellent too, a real good looking set of dishes. I'd definitely recommend this place. It's not the first place you think of for a meal, but it's definitely a hidden gem that deserves more recognition.

My partner took me and our daughter to the Four Winds on Mother's Day, 15th March. He reserved a table at 5 pm. We didn't realise that there was a special menu for Mother's Day, but it didn't disappoint in the way that set menus often do. The price was £23.95 each for adults and £12.95 for our daughter. This included a starter followed by raspberry sorbet (beautifully smooth and fruity), main course, dessert and coffee and truffles to finish. I would consider it excellent value for money given the quality and quantity of the meal.I had the goat's cheese tart to start and my partner and daughter had the vegetable soup. The only slight criticism I would make is that there could have been a bit more filling in the tart. As I've mentioned, the scoop of sorbet as a refresher before the main course was lovely.I had salmon with white wine, lemon dill and mussels for my main course. This was beautifully presented and was a good sized piece of fresh salmon with seasonal vegetables as well as the mussels, which were a nice touch. My partner had roast beef and our daughter had sausages.For dessert I had sticky toffee pudding with amaretto toffee sauce. This was lovely, and although not a small portion, wasn't too big after the other two courses. My partner had the vanilla & thyme cheesecake which was an unusual, fragrant, flavour, and our daughter had chocolate fudge cake.At the end of the meal I had a capuccino and my partner had a latte. We had to ask for the truffles to go with it but that's just a minor thing - as about 3 different waiting-on staff had been over and offered us coffee!We are definitely looking forward to going back here when the new menu comes out shortly.

I visited with my family on Christmas day and it was great.Young staff could not do enough for us we all loved it thank you we will be back! Thought the effort and care that staff made was exceptional. Chef was great too checking all ok with every course. First time out for Christmas it didnt dissapoint! '

This is the first time that I visited the restaurant and would highly recommend it. The three course Sunday lunch is value for money and the attention to detail by both the staff and the chef was amazing.The chef even took the time to come to the table and have a chat and nothing was too much trouble, I wasn't sure what to expect as golf club but I'm glad that I took the leap of faith and can definitely see myself returning as this is truly a Rainhill hidden gem. If you haven't tried it and fancy good food prepared with passion I would definitely recommend it!!

Four winds is a regular haunt of ours and now has a new chef. Good new menu with both classic steaks and a few new options to choose from. Well worth a try if you haven't been before or give it another try if you haven't been recently.

Been a few times and had good and bad food. this time everything was spot on. They have found a diamond in their new chef. His attention to detail and presentation was first class, and Lyndsy the new Restaurant Manager was also excellent ,not being in your face but there when needed.

Had our wedding anniversary party here . Just like to say the staff were brilliant nothing was too much trouble for them. The food on the buffet was excellent all the guests commented on how nice it was. The venue was lovely with fantastic views over the golf course. We will definitely be back.

Turned up on Sunday for Dinner , Restaurant was empty , lacked atmosphere , lady however was very helpful and friendly , food was tasteless , yorkies dry and burnt , beef was like leather , crumble was soggy , wont be going back in a hurry

Went here yesterday for Mothers Day and it was perfect.Food was good, service was quick and with a smile and the bill was reasonable.Would recommened to anyone, something for everyone.

This is my second visit to the Four Winds Restaurant and I was equally pleased this time. Group of 11 came for Mothers Day. We eat out each year on Mothers Day and expect the service and food not to be up to the usual standards. Not in the Four Winds Restaurant. Fantastic service, great food and relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommend.

we visited the restaurant the day after valentines day, the food was amazing we will defenatly be recommending the four winds to friends

My wife and I went here for Valentine's. Our meals were excellent and the staff were very attentive. The entertainment was very good indeed. The restaurant itself is modern, very clean and stylish. It's a shame that there were not more people there on the night as it lacked a little atmosphere in what is a hidden gem. We will be going back again.

The food at the Fourwinds is very nice and the chef is always willing to adapt his menu to suit your tastes or needs. The staff are helpful, friendly and efficient. The views are amazing looking out over the golf course towards Liverpool. The real shame about this restaurant is that more people don't eat here, which can't leave a less than ambient atmosphere.

The food here is excellent.This chef certainly knows his job.I think he should enter the master chefThe menus are changed regularly and the service is second to none.Don't take my word for it.Try it,you won't regret it.

The Four Winds is one of our favourite places to eat in Rainhill, especially in the Summer when we can look out at the beautiful views across the golf course. The restaurant never disappoints it is always very clean and has delicious food. Highly recommended.

My partner and I always visit The Four Winds Restaurant on special occasions. The food never disappoints, truly delicious! Service is excellent, staff are so friendly. Such a lovely restaurant in a great setting, would recommend over and over again!

food is excellent and if you have the 3 course menu its only 20 pounds.so why are people not eating there.

The food was fine but the place was completely deserted and we were there at 8pm on a Friday night.Price wise it was probably a bit expensive but probably wouldn't have noticed or been bothered if there had been any atmosphere.Wouldn't say I wouldn't go back , but would have to have heard/read that people had started using the restaurant.Service was great , but then again it should be if you only have one table to look after.

A beautiful environment set within Blundell's Hill Golf Course with fantastic panoramic views across the golf course to Liverpool. The restaurant is immaculate and creatively designed to provide ambience.The food is fantastic and menus are regularly changed to reflect local produce at it's best and in season. The staff and proprietors are friendly and welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. Theme nights are held eg A Tapas night is planned on July 8th. Currently open Friday and Sat evenings and for Sunday lunches. Lovely welcoming bar which diners are welcome to use but don't sit in the Captain's chair!! Great venue 10/10 -Take a look at the website for full menu further club details, cost and club activities

Just browsing the reviews,could "steakman" tell me the pub that sells aged Isle of Man fillet steak for £7 please. I want to go.

Myself and partner went for a meal on the evening of 23rd February 2013 to this restaurant . The waitress was lovely very helpful and couldn't do enough for you. . I asked for slight changes to my selections which was no problem at all , I really did get the impression that they would do their upmost to make sure you enjoyed your food , I think it would be helpful if they put the weight of the steaks that they are serving on the menu but that is just a small observation and the steaks we had were of good size. I definitely would recommend paying this restaurant a visit , they have an a la carte menu and a fixed price menu to choose from , a good selection not just steaks a variety of dishes. The fillet steaks we had were cooked to perfection , and although Diane sauce was not on the menu they prepared it for me no problem . The accompanying fat chips were lovely as was the fresh veg. We also had the cheeseboard which offered a good selection of cheeses & biscuits, we had one between us as we were quite full by then . So we enjoyed our meal and we will be going back in the future .

Visited here last night with a friend with high hopes considering this place lists themselves as a 'steakhouse'. Upon arrival i was impressed with the nice setting next to the golf course. As we entered i thought they might be closing due to the fact there was only 1 group of people in the restaurant. This is when alarm bells began to ring as i live very local to this place and nobody has ever mentioned/recommened it to me before... Maybe there is a reson? Anyway the waitress was lovely and sat us down straight away then got us two drinks. The atmosphere definitley left alot to be desired here. Upon reading the menu there was a choice of four steaks... But with no sizes!? What? No sizes?... Im sorry if my expectations are abit high here but coming to a STEAKHOUSE i expect to be able to fill myself on meat alone, worry about the chips and garlic bread later and then wake up the next day with a meat hangover! I asked the waitress what size they were to which she replied 'a decent size'.... Very dissapointing.The steak i actually got was ok and of a pub meal standard. The chips were very nicely presented but i wish more effort had gone into worrying about the chips being cooked in the middle than building a jenga tower out of them. Overall it would be ok if i was paying £7-£8 for it in the local pub but for a steakhouse thats charging £22+ its just not good enough. Oh and they didnt come on sizzling plates?.. Whats that all about.

This restaurant is in a beautiful setting, with views over the Golf Course and surrounding area. The decor is really lovely, very light and airy. The staff are very attentive, and nothing is too much trouble. As for the food, what can I say - it is absolutely delicious. We have visited on several occasions, on our own as a couple, and also with friends, and have never been disappointed. Well done Martin!!

The Four Winds Restaurant is set in a magnificent setting within Blundells Hill Golf Club and has splendid views across to the Welsh Hills and Mountains. Lois who is the Restaurant Manager always make you most welcome and Martin, the Head Chef provides excellent food with a good variety of choices. All the staff offer a professional service and are very welcoming whether it is you first time or like us are regulars. Sunday lunch provides a changing menu and should provide choice for all tastes. The ambience within the restaurant is extremely pleasant and we would recommend a visit to anybody.

We came to the restaurant for a meal for two and we couldn't fault it! We were shown to our table in an elegant, airy restaurant, the staff were polite and the place looked fantastic. as first impressions g, you couldn't beat it!We were surprised at just what an imaginative menu was on offer and I hear the new a la carte menus for 2013 are just as mouthwatering. the food matched with THAT view is outstanding.The views here are magnificent; no other restaurant for miles around can match them.So did the food match up to those spectacular views? Yes, yes, a thousand times yes! We were really impressed with the food and service alike, and we’ll be returning to dine here again. So much so i have just booked my husband a golf and dining day out - Jill couldn't have been more helpful!The Four Winds restaurant is a hidden gem, and if the quality of the food and the fantastic setting is anything to go by, this will soon be ‘the’ place to dine in the Rainhill area.

The restaurant was quiet, the food was excellent,think it was quiet as people don't realise it is open to the public being at a golf club, We had quite a few drinks which were at pub prices and thaen went through to the bar to watch the liverpool match,ended up leaving my car there ,but we had fun.

Took my parents for Sunday lunch. Not very busy, never a good sign! Lacked atmosphere and food was just ok. Yorkshire puddings were massive but very overdone. Fair to say I wouldn't rush back.

Came here with my family for mothers day and had the 3 courses for£14.95. We all had soup to start which was lovely and creamy and there was plenty of it too. I then had the roast pork which was well cooked with a nice jus (gravy) however would have liked more .. Rest of family had roast beef and said it was lovely. They had lovely looking Yorkshire puddings of which I was jealous of!! Vegetables were nicely cooked ( courgettes , carrots and baby corn) as well as the roast potatoes which were crispy and fluffy! Staff were really friendly and attentive. The restaurant inside is lovely and airy with a slightly Mediterranean feel to it. It had a really nice atmosphere and we were really pleased with everything overall. Definitely recommend! Oh we had apple crumble and banoffee pie to finish both which were fab!!!!
