Game Bird in St. Helens

Great staff just need that park sorting out

Great staff Dani lee Colette Ben couldn't do enough for you highly recommended Came over from Spain where I live treated family great experience

Everything was perfect with today’s visit especially the service. These were the staff working today and I would highly recommend the Game Bird!

Visited the game bird today and I genuinely can not believe how amazing the staff are, especially Danielle. Wow, the service we received was exceptional. The staff made our day so thank you

The staff were friendly, and the food was delicious! 😋 Ryan was very helpful, and made sure we had everything we needed.

The worst place I have ever eaten! The whole place was empty & run down. The staff were all just stood around talking not attentive at all. Almost tripped over a long blue wire walking to the toilets, I am 8 months pregnant. Ordered a mixed grill and a lasagna. Lasagna came out burnt so asked if it could please be returned to the kitchen. Only for another lasagna to come out that was like mush. Sausages on the mixed grill were undercooked and the chicken was so dry. Most of the food got left. The staff could see that we were finished and kept chatting away looking at us with empty plates on our table. The plates were only removed once the lady came over with the desserts! AVOID!!

Sorry but your food was not up too much one of the main meals was uneatable so when we complaints the officers a desert which come out with frozen strawberries will you vet in this pub many times I've never had a problem before sorry for this review

I have never been so impressed with a pub! Donna who arranged the play in the wacky warehouse was fabulous and the bar staff were lovely! Absolutely bargain and value for money but the staff are brilliant! Accommodating 30 people and lots of children as well as a child in a wheelchair just beyond helpful will definitely be back! So clean aswell just phenomenal

Always go the glass horse st Helens lovely friendly staff on the way home thought we would nip in here for a drink staff not friendly awful dump

After not being here for a few years, it was good to see the place has not changed much. Except for it being a bit quite than I remember. Nice food, and staff. I came here for the wacky warehouse, and my kid lived it so much, it was a drama getting her to leave.

As always the team at game bird give 1st class and friendly service,it's a pleasure to visit this pub whether it's for food or for a drink Thanks to Colette ,Jaz & Ryan

Come for tea today food was great service was great staff friendly

We booked this place for a family members birthday for 21 people whilst we were sitting people were put right next us with big dogs that wasn't friendly, we had 6 small children with us, 1 of the dogs owners shouted at my 2 year old screaming no no to my little boy he got so upset and scared, he wasn't even near the dog he was walking towards the toilets with his dad, I did tell the manager thinking he may move them away from r children to then be told there regulars, we didn't order food we all got up and left we went elsewhere. So be warned not a family friendly pub when there's 6 large dogs put right next your kids 1 of these been vicious.

Very impressed. Friendly staff. Got the quadzilla burger which was amazing quality and value. I couldn't finish it and the staff gave me a take out box for the rest of the meal. Tesco vouchers are accepted here (food only). Only thing that let it down mainly was the quality of the seats. Some of the padding on some chairs was ripped off. These chairs need to be upholstered. 3rd time visiting and still impressed , tried the scampi this time which was nice. Gammon was more well done than preferred. 4th visit - served by Ryan who was lovely and had the crispy chicken burger which was tasty. Another visit down and enjoyed the food as always.

What can I say , we travelled out abit further than the normal and found this gem , staff were delightfully friendly and did not pressure us to order, we were looked after by Ryan and the bar staff so well, they looked like they actually cared not like some who don't care a lot, food was hot and so tasty , served in a very timely manner A+++ will definitely revisit and would recommend to all ..

Staff served 20 of us this evening, we didn't wait long and all meals came together basically..well done to all the wonderful staff on duty tonight. Thank you for a great night and outstanding all round service AAAAA⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Serve by lovely girl today jasmine and food was fab by Adam

Hungry horse as always value for money.

Booked online and asked to be sat away from any doors. On arrival they sat us rite next to the door. Ordered a pint of dark fruits and as it was coming out all frothy the miserable barman went to change the barrel. On return he said it was faulty and we had to order a different drink. Ordered food on the phone app what was probably the best thing about the whole experience and it come out within about 20 minutes. Food was supposed to be sizzling when it come out and it was not. It was cooked but not sizzling like advertised. Chips had all black spots on them as it looked like the cooking oil needed changing. Kids were running wild around us doing cartwheels as we was also close to a toy machine. Nobody come to ask us how the food was they just threw it at us the took the half full plates away when we had finished. I know it’s a family pub but 2 adults by themselves should be sat away from the play area. Also the building looks run down from the outside and could also do with a good clean inside. I’m the men’s toilet there was 2 sit down toilets. One was blocked and overflowing. The other had a massive turd floating in it. We will not be returning here. Ever.

I went here with a car club for a meet up. The car park is large so parking shouldn’t be a problem on the average day. The food was piping hot and very enjoyable and the room they had for us overlooked the car park so you don’t have to worry about your car. Staff were always polite and helpful and I would go here again

Service was outstanding and the staff dani neil and ryan we amazing. Waiting on all our needs making sure everything was ok

This a great place to go for if you want any food it’s cheap and the staff are lovely. Would definitely would go again i’ll share with friends

Great food and service burgers were amazing staff were friendly and always asking when we were ready for next course as we had children with us

Very impressed. Food was lovely and very reasonably priced! Will be back 😁

Came in with a large party the food and service was very good it's a shame the kids couldn't go in the outside play area.

Lovely afternoon and amazing staff, it’s a shame the outdoor play area was shut!

Fantastic food, quick service for a party of 25+ only downside was the kids couldn't play on the park as it was closed off

came here today for lunch with the family. highly recommended. staff were fantastic and we have a massive party. thank you for an enjoyable afternoon 😊

They were very accommodating for our large family group for a Saturday afternoon lunch. We had a mixture of ages and some food allergies and they were careful not to mix the food up. It was just a shame that the play area wasn’t open for the children.

I visited the Game bird with the Brooks family, my friends celebrating their son's birthday. My meal was served and looked delicious,as I began to eat ki began to cough and had an asthma attack. Unfortunately I had to leave the table and go outside I would like to thank the young lady, a member of staff, who took care of mè. She was very professional efficient yet sympathetic. I am sure what she did for me was outside her remit, but she was really great and I cannot thank her enough. I feel sure, had she not taken care of me, I may have ended up in A&E. Thank you very much young lady, I'm sure you are a great assett to the establishment. Regards Cecilia Fairhurst

Food was fast hot and very tasty. Service was great attentive, but not overbearing will definitely come back

Great family friendly place. Food was lovely fast fresh and hot. Staff were great especially Collette and Jas who were serving us attentive but not overbearing. Also chefs Mic and Adam. Well done we will definitely be back. 👏👏👏

Friendly fast and excellent food.

My kids had a great time at the half term party yesterday. It was good fun for them with all the activities, games and prizes and Donna was absolutely lovely as always. Nothing is ever too much for her. And her colleague was lovely too. They were great with the kids and so patient. Definitely a great night and lots of fun for the kids. I hope they do it again soon.

Great cheap and cheerful midweek meal, service was fast and friendly, special mention to Ryan

Colette served us and by God she needed strength to deal with my mum an auntie arguing over who was paying the bill 😂 she was lovely! Food was delicious too, bonus!

Staff & food lovely especially collect so very friendly 😀

Staff really lovely especially collette, will defo return

Relaxed atmosphere, food was reasonable, and service with a smile.

Staff/service was amazing. Food was exceptional, best food, atmosphere and service experienced in a while. Price is perfect. All of us leaving with full bellies. It's gotten better here, love it.

We were invited back after a bad experience one Sunday, as a family we had 2 sizzling meals and 2 steak meals all were very good quality, service from Danielle and Claire was exceptional, i was told the chefs were Adam and Ben well done lads, and needless to say all complimentary, we really appreciated their honesty, will definitely return.

I visited the game bird today and was served by two lovely young women called colette and Kori, they Where fast with serving the food and just nice people is general would definitely go back food was nice and the atmosphere was definitely welcoming.

Great food, good value. Friendly and helpful staff. Place needs a refresh & toilets need to be better maintained.

Omg what an amazing place for food and hospitality. Colette, Kori, Danielle, Ben & Christine thank you so much for a really enjoyable evening. Not our first time here and will certainly not be our last, thanks guys. The food is great and also excellent on the price.

Staff here are brilliant. Adam took the time to really make us feel welcome and we will definitely be returning. Food was gorgeous and would recommend the Quadzilla and full monty mixed grill. 10/10

Quiet and friendly place to take the family for a meal

Quiet and friendly, good place to go as a family.

Have been coming here for the past couple of years after a more local venue to us started to become not as appetising and we wish that we’d tried is sooner as it might just be the most customer friendly eating place In Merseyside. As always, we’ll definitely be back! 🥰

Come here at least once a week, staff are always great and the food lovely

Lovely food friendly staff well priced defo recommended

Closed at 9pm but the opening hours say 11pm

We had a great time at this small play area! It's the perfect spot for kids to burn off some energy, and it’s well-designed, ensuring that little ones stay entertained for hours. If you're planning to visit during the summer holidays, I highly recommend getting the play pass. For just £14, you get unlimited access for a whole month, which is an absolute bargain considering how much fun the kids have. Another highlight of our visit was the food. We decided to grab a bite, and the quality was impressive. The dishes were not only delicious but also came straight from the pub, giving them that comforting, homemade feel. Whether you're there for a quick play session or planning to spend the day, this spot offers great value, tasty food, and an enjoyable experience for both kids and adults.

Pub was scruffy wall paper hanging off the walls food trodden Into the floors In function area upstairs in one corner the walls were damp and crumbling away window frames falling apart Food was overcooked or deep fried till it was like a brick Only good thing was staff service And the door to get out

Went today got seat no problem order no problem got starter right away luckily we got the granddaughter meal to come out with the starter then all down hill after a hour they came and said we have no mash for the roast dinner and steak &ale pie then waited another 30 minutes for the meals to come out the mix grill they said we didn't know about so more waiting let's talk about the food gravy was oxo and water I think roast was deli turkey roast looked like they was a week old peas was like rocks,mix grill egg was over Cooked in dirty oil chicken beast was rubber pineapple was burnt and gammon was like eating salt safe to say I will never take by family back here .and outside play area is dangerous and children can't play on it .and the wacky you have to prebook

Called here yesterday the food was awful 😖 everyone was sending it back definitely wouldn't come here again

We came this afternoon for a family meal when we first arrived we was advised that there would be a 45 minute wait on our food as the pub was extremely busy, we decided to go a head and order 4 Sunday roasts ( which where delicious and definitely worth the wait!) while waiting for our food to arrive we took the kids into the wacky warehouse for a play , a member of staff even came into the play area to let us know our food was ready, we had a lovely day the staff in the pub where rush of their feet but still provided amazing service, ours kids loved the wacky and the two girls working went above and beyond to make sure they enjoyed themselves! Thanks again for a fabulous day!

Was initially told there would be a longer than expected wait for food however once it had arrived we were very pleased with the result.

Fantastic service play area for the kids dog friendly as well loved it

We decided we would try the gamebird yesterday as we usually love the hungry horse chain. Big mistake! We should have walked out straight after walking once we noticed what state the building was in! The food came cold, and tasted like it had come from a cooker that hadn’t been cleaned for years! Vile! Safe to say we walked out without eating and went to another near by restaurant! Place needs closing down asap!

Good food and a nice family friendly environment. There is a kids play area. Ideal for sunday dinners with the family.

Lovely place to visit staff are so ever friendly

Nice food and really good service from jade and jasmine keep up the good work.

First time visiting yesterday and everything was brilliant! From the food to the staff. I think I caught the names right Jade, Colette and Jaz!? All amazing! Will returning 🤩

Great food outdoor space could improve. Staff where kind and observant. Place was clean and tidy. Plenty of seating area.

Cheap and cheerful. Nothing special food was just OK.

Food was awful for the price we paid xmas day, all our food from 11 of us was hardly touched, processed turkey and gravy was like cement that wouldnt come out gravy boat or able to share it around it was that thick, complementry drink was a bottle of prosecco to go around 7 people got told if we needed more to ask, when we did ask we got offered dregs from other tables.and told you only get 125ml, so why say ask if we need more. Next table got 2 bottles on there table from other waitress, we had to clear our own table an put on nxt table service was awful. They was rushed of there feet they couldnt cope. 2 stars is for the poor young lad that was running everywere.

Lovely staff very friendly and nice surroundings would highly recommend

Myself and my family had Christmas dinner here and it was delicious. The staff were friendly and helpful even though they were ruched off their feet. The food was great and the portion sizes are massive. Great value for money and there was free soft play for the children. Would definitely visit again.

My family booked for Christmas day lunch . Firstly the table had not been set for right amount of guests . Secondly the food was awful , many plates had a lot of food left on them. The chairs we where seated on were dirty and stained , I believe they were short staffed and we waited 1 hour from finishing our starter to receiving our Dinner. I was so disappointed with the food, sliced round turkey cold, underdone potatoes, overdone veg , Even for pub food it was far below standard. I don't blame the few staff that were working because they couldn't apologise enough. £59 per head for 9 adults and the food was terrible

Paid over £200 for Christmas dinner here and was furious with what we got. We had never been before but seen it had a soft play so thought would be good for the kids. The second you step in the entrance you get a bad impression, the place is so run down, there’s damp and pint peeling off the walls everywhere you look. We had a the soup for starters which was lukewarm and looked congealed with a slice of standard bread, I had 3 spoons of it. I was hopeful for the main thinking you can’t go wrong with a roast really, however it came out and looked like it had been plated up ages ago and just microwaved. Lukewarm again and the veg was all over cooked and soggy, the roasties had freezer burn all over them. I basically had a stuffing ball and 3 roasties for lunch. Out of a party of 5 not 1 of us finished our starter or main. You can’t really go wrong with pre-made cheese cake and ice cream so desert was the only edible thing we had. I have never complained about food/service before but was honestly furious with what we got for our money. I definitely would not return, just wished I’d read reviews before booking

The staff were absolutely brilliant, they couldn't do enough for us. Thank you

Usual pub fare, not particularly outstanding. Pleasant enough. Whacky warehouse next door handy for kids but dear at a fiver per kid and someonehas to supervise.

Staff friendly. Clean area. Food was delicious

Every member of staff have been so welcoming and made us all feel at home they even shared jokes with us amazing place to bring our family

S*** show….ordered food, the starters came with the mains, then one family members meal was missed off completely, only to be re-ordered late as a fish/chips/peas….then told there’s no mushy peas only garden peas, then 10mins later there’s no fish…. is scampi ok? We ordered the kids deserts only to be told they didn’t put it through as a meal deal and the tab was closed, so we didn’t get the included kids deserts. The scampi meal came out with no Tata sauce and mains that came out with the starters…(sent back) then came back out cold. Sorry but this place is a joke….1/10 avoid when possible.

Danielle ..was absolutely amazing .. funny .. sociable .. just brilliant x huge thanks She made our visit x

Collette jazz jade and Danielle all helpful really nice girls credit to the team

Superb scran made by Colin and served by Dan. Ordered the baguette; absolutely mouth watering. Wowee! Will come back again😊

Lovely meal again little quiet for a fri at 515pm which was nice thanks to the 3 lovely ladies on shift for there 110% service

Great food and service. We enjoyed the 3 course festive menu each course was really nice and served hot and quickly. The additional decorations on the table made it even more of a festive treat and lovely time together with good food and drinks.

Great food, hot and delicious. Friendly, pleasant and helpful service from staff especially Adam. Really enjoyed the festive menu and table being decorated too.

Come here during work time for food thoughly enjoyed my meal great staff really friendly and polite plenty space for parking absolutely spot on just what I needed will definitely come again location is great also nicely decorated for the festive season 5*****👍🎄👌

Love coming here for a burger sizzler combo it's nice and chill

Lovely food. 🍔 Great service. 🍺🍷 We went in for a family meal. 🥘 Relaxing and friendly atmosphere. 🎵🎶🎵. Thank you.

The Game Bird is back to form, a much better experience than when we last visited. The food was good same with the value! Wait time was reasonable and staff were friendly.

Normal establishment, dishes correspond to the price

This place used to be really nice, not anymore. The food was poor & the steak wasn’t cooked to how we asked. We did plan on having food plus deserts but we left our food & went elsewhere for deserts. The building is in a bad way & definitely needs a lot of improvements doing. I felt like I stepped back into the 90’s… we won’t be going here again !!!

Went yesterday 10/11/24. Wish we would have driven past. Myself and my son got the”Roast dinner” (turkey&beef). Where do I start!!! The Turkey came out round and fully processed that it had to have gravy on it to stop it sanding the plate. (You do get a jug of gravy separate) Frozen style roast potatoes, just missing the filling Vegetables were so bland you could get more taste from a tree branch. My son had the beef dinner and was physically sick after eating the rubber beef which he struggled to even chew. My partner got the mixed grill or should I say the microwave grill !! Centre of the pork was hot, but once again the thing had an outer casing of rubberised crust. Sausages were like bricks. Asked for scrambled egg instead of fried and got chopped up fried egg.missing the chicken breast completely!. We also got desserts ,well sort of. Ordered two apple and berries crumble just missing the berries part, my son had cheesecake which he said was at least palatable. Think the best thing was the coffees ,they at least could not be microwaved. I gave 1star for them. Avoid at all cost. Better food from a greasy spoon on some back road cabin. Been to other franchises and I will say they are worlds apart !

Bit shocked very tired and scruffy but nice meal with family for my birthday

Great service; freshly cooked breakfast with good coffee. Came on my own while partner took our dog training across the road.

Not what it used to be. Wait too long sometimes

Came for tea on a Sunday with 2 kids, food was a waste of time really, added a pic of the 'tomato pasta' possibly a teaspoon of puree on rubbery pasta, all the chips were cold, steak that was requested medium was rare but just more burnt than the med rare, no skillets so no veggies either, no sauce on the burgers but at least some on the table, it was only £45 for 2 adults 2 kids and it's pub food but it was pants even with that in mind.

Brilliant service Especially Ryan who served us Great service and woman behind bar with glasses brilliant personality

We had a great time at the Halloween party. Donna always looks after the children and keeps them entertained.

I take my kids to play after school they love this place. The staff are amazing donna is great with kids and always doing as much as shecan to make shure they have a good time.

Loved it , jake loved it and the activities and the good welcoming vibes were amazing! 👌

We went to the pub with our grandchildren as they enjoy the wacky warehouse. We ordered food from within the wacky and it was brought straight to our table by a lovely waitress. I ordered the fish and chips and couldn’t finish it because the fish was massive, my husband had to finish it for me, the chips were hot and fresh, the mushy peas actually had flavour and the tartar sauce was tasty with the crispy batter. My husband got the mixed grill and he loved all of it. The grandchildren got the kids pasta which came with garlic bread it was a good size for them both and we didn’t hear any complaints. Will definitely be back again when we’re minding the grandchildren as it was a nice day out for us all.

10 out of 10 for us. Didn't need to book the wacky warehouse, we were given a table straight away. Ordered food and was fresh and came within 15 minutes. Jade was lovely, friendly and very efficient. 90 minutes of play in the wacky warehouse and service was great. Will be back. Thanks again 👍

We had found this gem of a place by chance. We had a delightful and delicious dinner..food was definitely worth the price , there was lot of options.The millionaire cheesecake was the highlight of our evening. It was just out of the world. Jasmin was just amazing and took really good care of us ,especially the kids. Cant wait to come back again.

We had a lovely meal here on Tuesday, staff are so friendly and food was well priced for what we got and everybody finished there plates! Will be returning!
