Fruit + Fibres Canteen & Craft Workshop in Liverpool

Every time I come into this cafe the price for the same order is always different. The women who runs it seems to just charge you what she decides on the day. It’s overpriced and the food isn’t all that. On one occasion there was actually a hair in my tuna sandwich which she tried to justify saying it was a fluff fibre?? When I insisted it was a hair (because it was) the women then turned rude towards me. I didn’t have time to wait for another sandwich and requested my money back to which she threw it on the counter and sighed at me!! :/ nothing like good customer service Ay.. all in all I no longer work in the area and thankfully i will not be visiting here again :)

I hosted a 1 day course in this cafe, it was organised by one of the learners. The lady who runs the cafe was extremely accommodating to our parking needs, space needs, and our food requirements. A laid back atmosphere in a quirky cafe that makes you want to stay all day. I would recommend using this as a meeting place for anybody hosting small meetings.

My husband and I were looking for something a bit different to do on a recent trip to Liverpool. We found the scouse afternoon tea at Fodder online. Had a fabulous time! The canteen's in an industrial unit on a back street but is welcoming, and busy. We were shown into the separate parlour in a back room, complete with Welsh dresser, china, Christmas tree and decorations. Hannah talked us through the menu and we really enjoyed our tea! Thank you! We'll definitely be back to try the scouse experience next time we're in the city. It looked great too!

Nosotros (un pequeño grupo de amigos cercanos) reservamos la habitación The Parlour dentro de Fodder para celebrar el 60 cumpleaños. A riesgo de sonar un poco cliché, queríamos algo diferente, un poco peculiar. Esto fue. Teníamos 'The Scouse Experience', que era muy sabrosa, comida sana servida con cálida hospitalidad en un entorno peculiar. Con la habitación para nosotros solos tuvimos una pequeña canción de canto y mucha conversación fácil de escuchar. Como criaturas de hábito, necesitábamos un paso fuera de nuestra comodidad habitual - zona de la casa de alguien o un restaurante Lark - Lane para celebrar este cumpleaños tan importante. Esta elección inusual lo convirtió en un evento memorable para nosotros. Estaremos probando el menú de la mañana temprano para ver si el resto del menú del desayuno es sabroso y acogedor como el scouse. Sospecho que lo es. Los amables propietarios parecen tener una cálida hospitalidad peculiar hasta el borde

He estado aquí varias veces, ya que estoy trabajando en el sitio cercano, normalmente hacemos pedidos por teléfono, pero ha comenzado a tomar más tiempo una vez que llamas porque el café está ocupado. Siento que no estoy obteniendo la relación calidad-precio desde que comencé a venir aquí y la calidad ha disminuido un poco. Todos mis compañeros de trabajo están de acuerdo en que hay un problema con el tocino, a veces es como si estuviera apurado y no esté completamente cocido. Las salchichas son sabrosas y las mujeres siempre te saludan cuando entras solo necesitan algunos cambios

Had a great breakfast, plenty of it, friendly staff and somewhere different. Very popular with local workers having breakfast and getting takeaway. Two of us had a good feed for £13.

We really enjoy eating here. The place is quirky with a great atmosphere, and the staff are really friendly and helpful. We called in today and I had the Soup and a Sandwich which costs a mere £5.50p. The Pea Soup was absolutely delicious and was served with bread which was really fresh. For my sandwich I chose a Ham Salad which came with homemade Coleslaw. This was real ham, carved thick and absolutely mouthwatering. Prices here are even cheaper than reasonable and the selection of foods immense. We will definitely be back again..... ?

This gem is off the beaten track but so worth a visit! Staff are lovely food excellent. It would be good if people had a choice of where to eat the cafe itself or the parlour. This place is so good I came home and booked it for my Mother-in-law. Seriously give this place a go. It's not what you would expect but it is fab.

We love the quirkiness of Fodder and the easy relaxed atmosphere. The owner and staff are really warm and welcoming and the food is excellent. Having eaten at all times there, we decided to try the Scouse Afternoon Tea and what a great choice that was. It is served in the “Parlour” which is just like entering your Grandmothers back room. It is full of different artefacts which add to the nostalgia. The tea is superb and includes things like Scouse Balls, Pea Wack Rolls, Ham butty, Jam Butty, Wet Nelly and Liverpool Judy, all of which are absolutely delicious. This was our first experience of the Afternoon Tea but it certainly won’t be our last....

We booked the tea through Groupon. I have had afternoon tea many times over the years - but this one caught my eye as it look different than the usual little cakes and sandwiches with the crusts cut off! We arrived early but we were seated with our pot of tea and waited for them to prepare the tea. This took about half an hour as it is prepared from fresh. The food was delicious. Doorstep sandwiches with proper home cooked ham. Real jam butties and - what really interested us Wet Nelly! They say that the food is made with love, and I believe it! The food is good and th the staff are friendly. I would recommend it.

We were in the Baltic area to see the Liverbird Wings street art and happened to walk down this street on our way to the Docks. It advertised traditional Scouse food and we were intrigued. Books and vintage toys were everywhere, it was like visiting an older relative in their parlour. The menu makes for a hilarious read, but unfortunately we weren't hungry and only had tea. I'm sure the Scouse and Wet Nelly were delicious. We will just have to go back to sample them. I thoroughly recommend a visit just for the ambience.

After our first visit, we just had to return to this wonderful cafe. The staff, particularly the owner, are fabulous. Very warm, friendly and welcoming. This time we went to try the Breakfast and I was amazed at the size and quality of what you get for the Traditional English Breakfast for a mere £5. It is freshly and perfectly cooked and consists of Fried Egg, 2 Slices of Bacon, Sausage, Black Pudding, Mushrooms and Baked Beans with 2 Slices of Toast. For the same price, my wife had the Buck Rarebit which is Lancashire Cheese Rarebit on a Toasted Muffin with Smoked Bacon and Egg. Both meals were piping hot and delicious. This is a great place to Breakfast in a very relaxed atmosphere. It goes without saying that we will be back......

Went here with our friends we met in Kent. The food was plentiful and beautiful and tasted Gorgeous. Will most deffo be going back. Thanks guys

Sehr gemütliche und bodenständige Atmosphäre im Baltic Triangle, Service und Essen wunderbar, buntes Publikum; ein Wohlfühlort!

Have enjoyed the most yummy Scouse Afternoon Tea today with my parents at Fodder. Hannah the owner explained about the origins and history of the delicious culinary treats put before us, all of which are locally sourced and made. Hannah also offered her own blend of tea, which was delicious and went really well with the food. The Fodder Canteen is quirky and is a part of the ever growing Baltic Triangle. As part of the visit and the Afternoon Tea experience we were invited into the Parlour, which was brilliant. I would highly recommend Fodder, which looks nothing from the outside, but please don’t be put off. The food is excellent, the menu looks great and is reasonably priced and the welcome we received was Scouse Spectacular 👍

People often refer to “Hidden Gems”. Well, in respect of Fodder that is exactly what it is. Tucked away in the Baltic Triangle area, it really is well worth finding it and eating there.

This is near my work place and I would go in more if the prices match the environment (in my opinion)

Food was lovely and the owners very friendly. We intend to return for lunch in the near future to check out the main menu.

¡Qué fantástica alternativa al té de la tarde! ! Reservamos en Groupon una gran relación calidad-precio. Definitivamente regresaremos. Cuando llegamos, dije que pediría algo para mi hija y el dueño dijo que hay un montón de té en la tarde para dos personas y que si fuera necesario, se lanzaría otro sándwich gratis. Realmente se complacen en darle la bienvenida y en alimentarlo y regarlo hasta que esté satisfecho. Llegamos media hora antes, pero todo estaba preparado en 10 minutos para nosotros. Se ofreció café filtrado gratis mientras esperamos. La comida era diferente, era increíble y sin duda volveremos. El propietario se tomó el tiempo de sentarse con nosotros y explicarle todos los ingredientes locales y cómo eran todos caseros. Una alternativa placentera a un día libre de trabajo. Usted es un forraje de crédito. Gracias, Terry, Debbie y Hannah.

Popped in to have an afternoon snack here after reading great reviews. We were not disappointed. Excellent sandwich and chilli. We also got to sample the Scouse, alongside an explanation of the recipe and cooking technique. Delicious, would definitely to back for this.

What a nice little querky place. Ordered the Scouse afternoon tea lady brought it over to the table and sat down and explained all that was on the tiers, choice of teas.Food was very different and tasty. Friendly staff.Thank you

OMG Amazing. What a twist on a traditional afternoon tea. Loved the experience. Best bits were Liverpool Judy and peawack puffs 10/10.

When we visited this venue we had a lovely surprise. The venue was the usual 'old warehouse' type of place typical for the Baltic Triangle area of the city but the atmosphere was lovely. Very informal setting with a bespoke are for 'scouse' afternoon tea. The food was amazing with a small bowl of scouse (veggie option of blind scouse was available too), with a selection of traditional home made Liverpool cakes such as Wet Nellie and Liverpool Judy Tart, all served with tea, including the option for a locally blended tea to complement the flavours in the food served. The staff were lovely and friendly and very welcoming. We will definitely be going back again with family and friends. Would highly recommend.

We visited today for Scouse afternoon tea, it was served in the parlour. My family and I felt very special. Our kids are aged 7&9 and were made very welcome. Loads of games and colouring to entertain them. They also were well catered for (options of no mustard and squash instead of tea all greatly appreciated).

Had booked the scouse afternoon Tea on Groupon was worth every penny.

Great place, had afternoon tea in the parlour, was with husband and 2 teenagers, we all loved it. Friendly, kitch/quaint, great food, we will be back....

Treated myself to the "Scouse Experience", 3 courses including soup, dessert and a pot of tea (thanks for the refill!) Excellent food, friendly service and lovely atmosphere. I genuinely felt at home and ended up spending a good part of the afternoon here. Definitely worth a visit when visiting Liverpool!

This was our first visit, we went to have the Scouse but they did not have any mutton left. They did have chicken or vegetable Scouse but we wanted mutton, disappointing. The BOSS had a steak butty with a scone to follow. I had peawack soup, ham butty and a wet nelly with custard. The food was very tasty and good value. Interesting place bit tricky to find.

Great place for tea and cakes! Very friendly staff! Cosy place to relax! Will be back again soon 😊 5 ⭐️

We visited today as I’d heard so much about this place and we certainly weren’t disappointed.

Scouse afternoon tea..... abit of the beaten track but worth the visit. Don't let the look of the place deter you... local food and recipes... Its a must if your visiting liverpool but book first.... Wasn't disappointed and will return...

una experiencia de comida local muy única. Gran selección inusual si se trata. No me gustó la nelly húmeda, aunque sabía más bien como una merienda húmeda y una gran pasión demostrada por la señora que nos sirvió sobre la historia y los orígenes de la comida un poco de los caminos trillados, pero aún así vale la pena.

Didn’t know what to expect when we visited Fodder last week. We were amazed to say the least. If you are into nostalgia and savouring the tastes of bygone days this is the place for you. We were served in the parlour and we were introduced to a lovely couple who were visiting Liverpool. They were in the process of taking a doggie bag back to their hotel. The lady owner explained the history of each item on the plate and yes it brought back memories of my Dad making Peewak soup. Everything was made by the owner and was absolutely delicious. Attention to detail is everywhere from the little China cups to the decor which transports you back in time. This is clearly a labour of love for the owner and we will definitely be returning.

What a wonderful experience! We went for a ‘Scouse afternoon tea’ and really enjoyed ourselves. They even presented the kids with their own personalised plates.

Chose this place in seeing it in a Liverpool promotional book in the hotel, as it seemed quirky. After a taxi ride, we were told it wasn’t available as we hadn’t pre ordered. The ad in the book describes something different, no mention of pre order. To be honest, you’d have to love this place, as it’s off the beaten path, too dingy and down beat to my taste. Would not recommend at all

We were looking for some traditional local food on our recent trip to Liverpool, we saw the advert in the Liverpool magazine in our hotel. We were greeted by Hannah who explained the menu options to us. We opted for the 3 course scouse menu. We had no idea what we were about to eat, but went with it. We were not disappointed! The pea wacker soup was divine, the mutton scouse, tender, flavoursome, and took us back to childhood memories of wholesome food. The wet nelly was sweet dicey and very comforting and the vanilla custard was delicious. We were absolutely stuffed!!

We visited Fodders as a family (just the girls) for a Scouse afternoon tea. My Nan, mum and aunties loved the parlour as it brought back memories of the olden days. It was such a lovely afternoon.

I went to Fodder Canteen for a Scouse Afternoon Tea. I am a great fan of Afternoon tea but the Scouse variety was a revelation. Food was delicious, varied and plenty of it. We ate in the parlour which was a lovely private room. Pot of tea was replenished as often as we wanted. Just wish it was nearer to where I live.

Elección de Scouse (ciego, cordero o pollo) servido con remolacha o col roja, además de pan y mantequilla y una taza de té. Hannah es muy amable y servicial, nada es un problema y todo el personal hace todo lo posible para asegurarse de que estés disfrutando de la experiencia. Era encantador sentarse y leer mi libro y disfrutar de una hora de escape. Sin duda volveremos! gracias

Really good. Very welcoming and friendly without being too much Scouse balls are a revelation! I could eat a lot of them! Definitely be back

I went to the Fodder Canteen with my friends and tour guide, Katie, in January.

We were bought a voucher as a gift and went with friends. A lovely experience in cosy quirky surroundings. Hannah explained everything to us and the fact that the food is all locally sourced and home cooked. Beautiful scones, wet nelly and Liverpool Judies.(treacle tart) A tiny niggle, the Scouse balls and the peawack puffs were not hot, they would have been much tastier if they had been.

Took an Uber there based on prior reviews. There is a ton of construction around the building right now and even though there was a sign saying that they’re open for business as usual, we couldn’t find the door! Lots of scaffolding, detours, etc. I tried calling several times but there was no answer. This was definitely during normal business hours. We went walking to find another place to eat - the neighborhood is definitely transitional - and we saw a sign for Fodder Canteen pointing in another direction but not a second sign to get us all the way there. I would definitely call before you go. If there’s no answer, I wouldn’t risk it, as there’s not much around the place other than the brewery (which would be fun at night but not for breakfast!)

I tried this cafe yesterday and found a hidden gem. The cafe is in the heart of the Baltic Triangle where there are numerous new businesses and new housing units.

Fodder está situado en la moderna zona del Báltico de Liverpool. Está a un par de minutos a pie de Cains Brewery Village en Norfolk Street y vale la pena descubrirlo si estás buscando un sabroso desayuno o almuerzo casero o incluso un café de té (por cierto, se especializan en una pala tradicional hecha en casa si ¡desea un sabor local!) La comida es excelente, a un precio razonable y se sirve en un ambiente agradable, y Fodder está lleno de arte peculiar y piezas y piezas. Vale la pena una visita.

Called in today with my wife after visiting City Centre for lunch. We were enticed by the already excellent reviews here.

Husband and I took advantage of a groupon deal for a scouse afternoon tea, fodder is a hidden cafe in the trendy Baltic Triangle area of Liverpool. Being proud scousers we were intrigued by the idea of a scouse themed tea. Not knowing what to expect we met the very friendly owner, who kindly explained that everything offered with the after tea was either traditional Liverpool food with a twist or locally sourced from independent Liverpool traders. The cafe is a good size and we had our tea in “the parlour” which is just like being in grandmas house. We had scouse balls (bit like a scouse bhagi) peawack puffs (pea and ham thick soup within Puff pastry) wet nelly (bread and suet spiced pudding) Liverpool Judy (lemon and treacle tart) open ham and whisky mustard sandwich (mustard locally made and delicious) jam butty with knotty ash jam, scones and fodders own scouse tea (light and tasty). We had a lovely experience and will definitely be back for the hot scouse experience!

Lovely Scouse afternoon tea, very accommodating as we went early due to changed plans. This did not prove a problem as the experience was very enjoyable, truly delicious food & tea, the surroundings in the parlour were very welcoming & comfortable. If your in the area this place is definitely worth a visit!

Reservé esto en Groupon, así que realmente no esperaba mucho por el precio sino por un pequeño tesoro escondido. Me costó un poco encontrarlo pero no tendré el mismo problema la próxima vez que lo visite. Excelente relación calidad-precio. Encantador, cálido ambiente y el té de la tarde fue muy divertido con un suministro interminable de ollas de té. Todo el personal era muy agradable y servicial. Pasé una tarde muy relajada poniéndome al día con un viejo amigo. Muy recomendable para comida, servicio y ambiente.

Having spent 5 years of my early twenties in Liverpool and remembering eating Scouse to fill me up in those cash strapped student days I determined to find a good bowl of scouse when I came back to the city some 20 years later.

We had afternoon tea earlier today. Not far from Liverpool 1 bus station, a short walk. It's a lovely quirky place with plenty of photo opportunities. We had a veggie option. Peewack puffs, wet nellie, jam butties straight from Doddies jam butty mines, Liverpool Judy, Scouse balls and butties. The tea was topped up and plentiful. The owner, Hannah was very knowledgeable about Liverpool traditional food and very friendly and efficient. We like experiences, and this was a good one.

Probé el té de la tarde de Scouse aquí con un amigo. Los dos estábamos muy impresionados con la calidad y la cantidad de comida ofrecida. El té, una mezcla hecha especialmente para Fodder, no tenía fondo y era delicioso. La bienvenida de la dueña Hannah y su personal fue cálida y amigable, justo lo que esperarías de los Scousers. Lo que más nos impresionó fue que alguien había hecho todo lo posible por promocionar auténticas comidas de Scouse (como Wet Nelly) y ¡reforzar nuestro rico legado! Visítelo cuando pueda, no se sentirá decepcionado. ¡Bien hecho, Hannah!

Fuimos a este café tres veces de las cuatro mañanas que estuvimos allí y me pareció que el lugar era excelente. El personal era muy amable, aunque estaban ocupados con la clientela en los locales o en las órdenes de teléfono receptor. La comida era excelente relación calidad-precio y bien preparado lo que quería que me cocinar para usted a lo que me gustó. El lugar estaba bien ventilada y las mesas y el suelo estaban limpias. Usted podría ver cómo su desayuno cocinado.

Mi esposa y yo visitamos para té de la tarde en 'queremso dedicar el salón". El té incluido especialidades locales incluyendo Peawack Puffs, Wet Nelly y Liverpool Judy, todo se sirve en mejor en una sala preciosa china establecer como mi salón grannies.

Absolutely fab little cafe - quirky, great atmosphere and THE BEST cheese and ham toastie I’ve ever eaten!

This is a great little place, hidden down a side street in the Baltic Triangle. Fantastic food at great places, very homely. We had the Lancashire Rarebit and the Steak and Onion barm with spicy wedges - very tasty. Can’t wait to go back again!

What a find, Liverpool has some brilliant places to eat and this is up there. Warm and friendly people invite you in for real food, cooked well and very reasonably priced. Fill up on lovely Scouse, roast dinner for £6 on a Wednesday and real quality coffee. I'll be back and make sure I tell more people about this place!! Don't expect Michelin stars or hipster trends but do expect a genuine welcome and great food.

Quirky venue, decent food and great value for money. This is slightly out the way but that could also be a benefit as prices are comparatively low. Local food for local people and it's all home cooked, "like mama used to make"!

Una verdadera joya escondida en el triángulo del Báltico. Sirve desayuno, almuerzo y cena té café tarta!

Los forrajes de la cantina está a una corta distancia a pie del Albert Dock, en el borde del 'Triángulo Báltico 'justo en la calle de Liverpool.

Eat here regularly - spot on in every respect. The all day scouse ( 3 varieties) is a speciality - but the full menu including great coffee and locally baked cakes are wonderful. Staff go the extra mile.

Per toeval beland tijdens een wandeling in The Baltic Triangle. Authentieke sfeer. Lekker gegeten. Vriendelijke bediening. Aanrader.

This place is now called Fodder Canteen. I had Eggs Benedict and it was delicious, the best I have ever had actually. My dad had toast which was proper doorstep toast and we both had tea. The tea came in a large pot which made...

This place is now called Fodder Good food at a reasonable price in relaxing unorthodox surroundings.

Me gusta de negocios independientes en Liverpool, ya que da a la ciudad un dinamismo especial y energía. La cantina y taller está dentro de la Baltic Triangle, y si necesitas un descanso del ajetreo y el bullicio de la ciudad, será recompensado con algunos...

Hoy, la cantina pasó por el café encantador. Tenía el sin límite. queremso dedicar Delicioso. El personal era encantador y claramente muy orgullosa de su lugar. El propietario estaba interesado para mostrar sala lateral para alquilar. Realmente nos impresionó.

Comida excelente y el personal muy agradable. Sin duda, volveremos. La sección artesanías parece muy bueno.

en la tierra, ambiente hogareño. Sin lujos pero es ideal para familias. Las artesanías son una ventaja añadida. La comida es excelente y el personal encantador.
