Hampsons in Sefton

Really good service and the baby had a good time

Went to Hampsons Waterloo for an evening meal with friends Our servers for the evening were Nathan and Poppy they introduced themselves to us on arrival showed us to our table and explained the chefs specials. Throughout our evening they were attentive and friendly taking us through the menu and giving us plenty if time to make our choices of food and drinks. The food was absolutely delicious we chose a selection of small plates. Including ribs chicken wings prawns amongst others and large plates of fish and chips and spaghetti carbonara all cooked to perfection. As twilight came the lights were lowered and more candles lit and we moved to the bijou Arc to end our evening. A wonderful time. We Will certainly be back

Had a mid week evening meal with friends. From the minute we walked in the staff were friendly, polite and attentive. They explained the menu and the specials to us and were patient with us whilst we ordered. The meal was served relatively quickly we all agreed it was lovely. The small plates were plentiful and absolutely delicious. Following the meal we retired to the cocktail bar for a coffee. The music was subtle and although loud enough to hear did not drown out our conversation. A thoroughly good night. Well done to all.

Went here this evening for the wine and dine offer. Didn't expect much for the price as it was such a bargain. The wine which was house, a bottle of red and pino were really lovely. The food was outstanding. I've got to say we were totally surprised how gorgeous the food was. The service was 100% spot on. Would definitely come here again. So lucky to have this on our doorstep. The chefs in there are something else. X

We visited recently mid-week. Quiet, but food was lovely and fresh. Also reasonably priced. Wine quite pricey for quality of what you're receiving.

Booked Arc, (part of Hampsons in Waterloo) for my wife’s birthday 🎂 party and had an absolutely brilliant night, very classy venue with excellent staff. From the moment we booked, service has been first class. Alex is very professional, helping my wife choose food for the guests and not trying to push extras. Service on the night from Nathan behind the bar was excellent, he’s very attentive as are the rest of the staff throughout the venue. Everyone commented on the quality of the food and value of the drinks, all very well priced. They really can’t do enough for you, little extras like - letting us supply our own music playlist and slicing up the birthday cake for desert. I would recommend anyone to book it or even just go for food and drink in the main restaurant, you will be very happy.

Visited the Waterloo site at the weekend and I was very pleased with our experience. The food was amazing and cooked to perfection. I opted for the Sunday Roast and my partner decided to have a few small plates. The options for the kids were great also, my little one had the kids roast and loved it. The service was great, we were served by Lucy who was very friendly and professional and made great drinks recommendations. Will definitely be visiting again and recommending to family and friends. Lovely new additional to the Waterloo restaurant scene. Many thanks very a lovely time!

lovely food, lovely drinks, sensational staff & service. have visited for breakfast lunch and dinner, will be back again.

After many delightful visits to Hampson’s Waterloo, I had to try their sister restaurant Hampson’s Crosby and I am so glad I did! It has everything that I love about the Waterloo restaurant, but with a more relaxed and cosy vibe. It feels almost like a pub, but much nicer with gorgeous finishings and table service! (Loved this) The staff are friendly, helpful, professional and very warm and welcoming too. There’s no wonder customers keep coming back. We got the 6 small plates between myself and my friend and they came out like a work of art! Presented on a huge board on individual plates and looking fresh and vibrant! Each one tasted so good and it’s very hard to pick a favourite because they were all equally as nice! The were very good value for money and just the right size. We had a lemon pudding to share which looked so pretty in the glass, and blended in well with our cocktails and mocktails! Speaking of which, these were gorgeous, you’d never have known mine was alcohol free! One way I’d describe both of the Hampsons is that feeling of coming home, the feeling of being looked after and like they really care! Both are beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean and perfect for a special occasion or a chill and catch up. Basically everything on my list of what I look for in a restaurant and for all of these reasons, I highly recommend you visit too!

Me and my friend visited Hampsons on Coronation Road recently and we both loved it! Fabulous decor and ambience, friendly efficient staff and the food was so tasty and good value! We got the six small plates which were presented beautifully on a large board. Great portions and everything was so yummy! My personal fave was the ribs, the meat just fell off the bone. Good selection of cocktails too👌 We will definitely be back x

A lovely place , staff were brilliant, food was exceptional. Thank you .

Went for lunch with family. 12.45pm the place was empty. We were the only ones there. Ordered six small plates for £28. Small plates is an understatement. Tiny little dishes arrived covered in pansies. The two chicken wings were cold and bland, meatballs had a strange taste and halloumi fries were stale. Cocktails were lovely. I used to love coming here for food and drinks. There’s too many better places around that are value for money and with better food. I don’t think I’ll be coming back for food. I’d stop for a drink there but not much else.

Starting off the decor was stunning and very inviting servers when efficient and friendly food can promptly and was very tasty especially the chicken shawarma and the prices are very reasonable

Had a lovely trip to Hampson's, really relaxed vibes. Staff were friendly, had a lovely late lunch. Will be returning with the family soon, can't wait to try the other venue in Waterloo.

I love this place, for a drink or food. The small plates are lovely , the cocktails are superb and the service is spot on. Its a great place to eat or have a drink. The decor is lovely . I would recommend it to anyone and the owner John is a top fella.

Very quiet. Music old world blue No attempt to promote Valentine's. Food all came at once covered in rocket. Took this off and filled a full side plate. Staff yawning behind bar. Food went cold while we were trying to eat. Would not return

Been here numerous times for small plates and sunday roasts, food is always excellent and fab wine, the staff are all great look after you so well and make lovely cocktails, the manager John is so friendly always pops over for a chat, they have also opened a new bar in waterloo on crosby road would 100 % recommend a visit to either.

We went here after being told by a few people about “Hampsons” the food is great , we had a Sunday lunch , and cocktails here, really great value for money and good service . We will definitely be going back soon

This place was great really enjoyed my time here, everyone was super friendly, and the food was amazing. I will definitely be coming back again.

Staff were.lovely the ambiance was great I've had lovely food here before, don't know if it's a new chef ,risotto was bland and covered in cream ,I sent it back and asked for something else, the owner came over me told me he tasted it...

Have been to hampsons a few times, foods been good, not sure if they've got a new chef food tonight covered in salt ,risotto bland covered In cream and owner an idiot ,said he thought it was amazing and agree to only charge us for the replacement?? Who would charge for the.meal you didn't eat ?

The decor and ambience is lovely the staff were brilliant and very attentive. However I noted that nobody was eating when we arrived at 6PM I ordered the lamb kebab with side order of chips and my partner ordered the mushroom risotto. Both dishes arrived...

Called in for our lunch, great service and excellent menu, nice to see portion size was not compromised with the deals that were put on, will definitely be going back. Thank you John & team 👍

We visited Hampsons today for the first time. 5 adults and 2 toddlers. What a disappointing experience! Food took over an hour to arrive and was extremely bland. I had to ask for someone to come and take our order as we had waited for so long. The toddlers drink arrived in a thin glass tumbler and the food arrived on huge porcelain plates. My partner went home to get their drinking cups and cutlery so they had something safe to use. The toddlers food portion was actually bigger than the adults. When we mentioned our disappointment, we were told that they were staff members off and numbers were down. The manager/owner assured us that no one could be as annoyed as he was... We love visiting independent businesses and supporting the local community, however this isn't an experience we wish to repeat.

Good food with excellent service, the place has a good vibe.

We booked ahead as we wanted to bring our dog. Our table was ready and waiting. Table service and a nice range of hot drinks, and alcoholic ones! We waited for Sunday lunch service to start at 1 and we were not disappointed. The beef option was particularly good, the gammon was a bit stingy on portion size, but it was all totally delicious. Very happy tummies. Strange starter options for a Sunday menu, so we only had 1 course and it was good value.

First time at Hampsons, went for the wine tasting evening and was really pleasantly surprised. Atmosphere was chilled and cosy and the service was really great. Lovely food and drink too. Would recommend...!

What a delightfully welcoming and warming treat on a blustery November weekday evening! We started with a generous glass of delicate biodynamic Cava that pared divinely with the first taster of the six-course menu, warm and savoury mushroom tea. The following five courses and wine...

Came for bottomless brunch with my daughters and friend. We had a lovely afternoon drinking delicious cocktails - French martini definitely my favourite. The food was really good, tasty and well presented, my big breakfast really was big😁. The staff were great, very friendly. Would...

Can't fault the food at all. Been a few times over the years and the food is lovely. Always fresh. Highly recommend. Never had a bad experience. Thank you!

A super place with a great atmosphere and lovely food.

Wow wow WOW!! What an amazing treat for us, having enjoyed the best bottomless brunch with a group of friends, celebrating 50ths. So, first of all, the selection available is amazing. This is for both the food and drinks. Can personally say, I sampled most of available drinks, and all cocktails freshly made and delish! They even have 2 incredible mocktails. Secondly, the staff worked hard and catered for us all so efficiently and well, never having to wait long for our drinks to be refilled. The food arrived and certainly no complaints from any of us 9. Absolutely gorgeous, plentiful and all piping hot. Final verdict - an absolute hit!! All agreed it was an amazing experience and certainly worth every penny. Bobby dazzler!

Such a lovely place, food is gorgeous and so reasonably priced , we love it ! I only have 1 slight comment, it’s a bit cold if it’s quite.

Dined here for a roast dinner as a family after reading the glowing reviews. Very disappointed with the quality of the food. Veg was decent but beef was tough and fatty. Child portions were a decent size but way too small for an adult. service was good. would not dine here again or recommend.

Just a great chilled local with good food

Love the ambiance of this place, lots if fairy lights, great atmosphere and efficient staff.

Piped in for early dinner , amazing service from the 2 guys - small plates amazing- fab time great atmosphere. And the best cocktails- the espresso martini was up there with the best my wife said . Thanks - c u again

Good food good service nice atmosphere

Pleasant place to visit for drink,

Wow. Great service, great food and great prices. We were recommended to try here and it has a really nice decor, the tapas are a great price for the amount of food you receive.

Wanted somewhere dog friendly after a walk on the beach. Great food and service. Sunday roast yummy. Will definitely go again when in area.

Came across this place by accident yesterday. Glad we did. Had a couple of the tapas dishes which were all delicious. Staff were very attentive, atmosphere was chilled. Will certainly be back.

Came here for a Sunday dinner with the family and friends, we go out to different restaurants to see who has the best Sunday and this is by far the best Sunday dinner in north Liverpool.

Great food would definitely recommend.

Fantastic food and service as always, friendly staff also. Looking forward to trying the new menu and newly introduced quiz night

First time we've visited here and enjoyed a great lunch, reasonably priced and pleasant staff. We will return here again

Had a beautiful evening with my family here on Wednesday night. Lovely staff and incredible food, can't wait to come back!

Amazing food and service by one of their staff. Came on Monday afternoon with a friend and had the range of meze with a much needed coffee. Absolutely loved the prawns but also loved how attentive the staff was, she was so nice and we...

Very disappointing. We had rated here before and it was very good. On this occasion, the food was severed on cold plates. The food was not hot and really as described on the menu. Only eat some of the food because we were hungry. Paid...

This was a great finish to our afternoon walking and stoping at independent restaurants and bars . The atmosphere was good and a great buzz , we had 2 sharing boards and with good wine and lovely service from the young staff . Great place...

One of our favourite bistro’s in Crosby. Food & drinks are always top quality & such lovey staff

Booked in for 11am needing a brekky after a day on the ale. We were the first ones in and met by a lovely waitress who asked us where we would like to sit. We had pre booked our table and it was clear others...

Great food, service and atmosphere 😊

Love this place, best food & drinks plus lovely staff ... cant beat it!

Good food, good drinks and good atmosphere. 100% worth a visit.

Friendly, helpful staff. Food all cooked fresh using the finest ingredients. The breakfast was served on warm plates and the best I have ever tasted. I'm no spring chicken either. Brilliant value, going again soon. I travel from Southport its that good.

Great night with delicious food

Great place reasonable prices quality food

Fabulous place for all occasions. Great drinks, food, and even better service. Highly recommended for everything from date night to drinks with pals.

Such a welcoming and cosy atmosphere with amazing staff who can’t do enough for you! Great food, drinks and service! Although I no longer live in the area, it’s always my first place to go each time I return! Can’t wait to go back!

This place has a fantastic atmosphere, the way it is lit and the wonderful scenery. I always come here with my work friends and we always have a blast. The food is great and the drinks a amazing. I love this place 10/10

5 * food, atmosphere and service! This is my local and the staff are immensely welcoming and helpful. We often have our staff parties here and they cater to us all. I also have a GF friend and are so helpful when it come to allergens. I will go in for a coffee and delicious slice of cake or go and spend the night boozin and boogie-ing… p.s SPOT ON MUSIC 🎶

Driving past it really stood out and looked like a nice place to have some lunch so we decided to give it a go. The decor and staff where lovely, but the food really let everything down. We ordered a large breakfast and veggie breakfast, and when they arrived the veggie breakfast was the same as the large one (not the waitresses fault she did ask for a veggie breakfast but the chef got it wrong). When the veggie breakfast arrived it was missing the avocado, but after sending it back once we couldn't be bothered sending it back again. The toast on both breakfasts was unlike any toast we'd seen before and was so brittle it just crumbled. It was also cold and impossible to spread any button on it without it crumbling. Both breakfasts were also cold (again didn't see the point in sending them back after already doing so once). This was really disappointing considering we were the only people in there having food so there wasn't really any excuse to get everything so wrong and be cold.

good food, good drink, good music & good staff! all round lovely restaurant & bar, will be back!

Great scran served by lovely staff. Couldn’t be happier and would definitely come again

Thomas's food is unreal to the last detail well thought out menu and well executed 11/10!!! Charlotte's service was also impeccable all so friendly n she makes the best porn star martini. Dog friendly. The owner is always there. He's boss hairy biker haha x...

Amazing, totally can’t even believe how tubular this experience was. Proper get to ours material and all that.

Fabulous food, lovely atmosphere and a the drinks didn't stop. Love this place, visit it frequently with my mates from work. Big up Hampsons!

Had a large English breakfast, wasn't that large but filled a hole an was nice. Seems for of a bar that sells food than the other way round and smells like it too. Overall decent for a breakfast wish I had gone with the fish finger butty instead. Drinks were very expensive but if u have tea or coffee that's included with the breakfast. The breakfast itself was priced well. Street parking only and can be hard to find a space but we managed to get one on a side street just fine.

A great place for atmosphere and cocktails especially smoked old fashioned

Great friendly and welcoming place. Staff lovely especially John who is always sociable even though we have not been for sometime. Great food and cocktails, will go again very soon.

Had a lovely night, really good beer selection and the team were really friendly and attentive even though they seemed really busy!

We eaten here before and the standard of food never fails. The staff are always friendly. Recommended you visit 🍺👍

Nice food and cosy surroundings. Bottomless tea or coffee with all large breakfasts and caters for vegetarian and vegan customers too.

Oh my God, 'Gemma Through the Looking Glass' is the most amazing cocktail I've had in a long time 🥰

Lovely quick food & music! Thank to the girls Gemma, Beth and Shannon 😽 Be back to try the dinner menu x

Needed a chilled evening and got one. Lovely atmos, nice music and amazing service. Gemma served us with a smile and made us feel welcome. Thank you. We will be back!

Came here for a couple of drinks with the family and decided to get some food. Although the menu clearly states what is vegan, our waitress, Jemma, was able to tell us what else could easily be made vegan. We ordered the vegan sharing platter...

12/03: Had a fabulous time surprising my partner for his 50th birthday at Hampsons, it was 100% worth all the panic and plotting and pre-visits to discuss arrangements with John (owner) & Shannon (manager) .. Thank you both! There were 15 of us, seated in...

Called in on the off chance we could get some food after 8pm on a Thursday night with a couple of friends. Couldnt have been happier with the food, the service, the drinks and the staff. Special thanks to Phil for really looking after us...

Great food and beer. Krombacher on draft is absolutely crisp and fine. Always lovely food and perfect portions. Polite friendly staff who can't do enough for you especially Gemma who was attentive and welcoming..thanks so much guys. Always a pleasure

Jemma and charlotte served us with a number of top class cocktails. I was refreshingly suprised by the high level of service, skill and friendly attitude of the bar staff. This is a small town bar delivering city centre quality with a personal touch

The food was excellent , we ordered a selection of tapas and everything was so tasty and well prepared with ample portions , would definitely reccomend , it has a lovely ambiance and the staff are very attentive and helpful , philip was our waiter...

Called in for a cuppa & chat with a friend. Pleasant place, staff friendly.

Me and the other half went for a bite to each last Saturday afternoon, and as usual, the food and service were very good. Phil and Gemma took good care of us and were as friendly as ever.

Only dropped in for a drink with the wife and ended up having the Valentines set menu. And how lovely was it! Nothing seems too much trouble for these guys and they all seem to take such a pride in what they do, and are...

Went here staff lovely local and was looked after

This was the first time we've visited despite being from the area. Managed to get a last minute reservation and had a lovely selection of food from the small plates menu. Phil our server was great, helped us with our food choices and gave great...

Really lovely evening - fab food and wonderful service from Phill. Cocktails were amazing. I would definitely recommend the house one.

Had an amazing night here. Food was fantastic. Service was perfect - Phill looked after us so well- thanks so much!!!

We had called into Hampsons Restaurant in Crosby a couple of times for drinkies on way to and from other restaurants but last weekend, my wife and me decided to dine there with a friend of ours and we were so glad that we did....

Food was very pretty but very great and not very warm. The brunch menu was limited when vital ingredients were missing and considering they qre inly 5 mins from sainsbury, I am nit sure why they could have just gone and got additional ingredients. Is a nice bar otherwise

I had a lovely brunch! Everything was so fresh and tasty!

Great place for drinks with beers that aren't the normal commercial ones of larger brewery owned places. Friendly staff, great atmosphere with sensible people just out for a chat and a drink with friends

I ordered a beef roast dinner over the phone and collected within 15 minutes. This was my first time visiting Hampsons and will definitely go back. The young lady who served me was friendly and approachable. The food itself was hot and super tasty.

Had a really nice night service was great just had drinks.

Very good food and great coffee cakes pies lots homemade very clean

Great value for money at £20 for three courses. Downside was all the food was piled up on top of the other and the meat was a tad flavourless. Service was good though and decor was interesting
