John Brodie in Liverpool

Great pub! Staff were brilliant looked after us and on a busy weekend they kept the place tidy, didn’t wait for food or to be served drinks, will definitely be returning!

Came in for a pint and something to eat, was served by Abby and Victoria who was amazing. I had to thank the chef who was also called dan for the delicious food. Definitely will be back

Good friendly venue. Good friendly staff. Reasonably priced

Lovely pub and lovely staff will come again

Great service friendly staff comfortable seating

Delicious food (chicken sub) at a very reasonable price and the service was good. I would come here again

Had a breakfast here today. My other half had chicken wings. We both enjoyed the meals. One thing I did not like the sausages were awful. Thick skins ( cheap) and quite tastless

Went for breakfast with my girlfriend we both enjoyed the food and the atmosphere will definitely visit again

When I came here the other day i had a great time, all I can say more is Abbie and Victoria made the day

My recent visit to John Brodie in Liverpool was nothing short of a culinary disaster. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was tainted by an abysmal display of service. The man assigned to our table appeared to have mastered the art of laziness and rudeness, creating an unwelcoming ambiance that lingered throughout the evening. To start, our drinks never graced our table, and when we dared to question their whereabouts, we were met with an eye roll and a dismissive exit. The lackadaisical attitude permeated the entire dining experience, leaving us feeling neglected and unimportant. The food, oh, the food! The steak and ale pie, a supposed specialty, arrived as a frozen monstrosity. The meat within was an unappetizing combination of chewy and fatty, as if it had been haphazardly thrown into the oven straight from the freezer. Even the fish, supposedly fresh, exhibited the unmistakable texture of being frozen solid. As for the curry sauce, it defied the laws of fluidity. Attempting to pour it was an exercise in futility, as it stubbornly clung to the bowl, mocking our attempts to enjoy a decent meal. Each bite of the allegedly delectable dishes only deepened our disappointment. What's worse, the disregard for customer satisfaction reached its pinnacle when we voiced our concerns about the wrong food order. The indifference displayed was astounding – a collective shrug as if our dissatisfaction meant nothing. Regrettably, the repercussions of this gastronomic nightmare didn't end with our departure. In the aftermath, a lingering sense of unwellness settled upon our party, a final insult to injury. In conclusion, my experience at John Brodie was a parade of culinary catastrophes and lackluster service, leaving me questioning how such an establishment can continue to operate. Save yourself the disappointment and seek out a dining venue where customer satisfaction is more than an afterthought.

Food allways good and staff friendly

Great service from Ross and his team, food was lovely, will defo be back!

It's a fairly standard new style pub but a nice friendly atmosphere in here. Service was always fast from the staff during our visit. Good range of beers wines and spirits and fairly priced 👍

Fantastic local establishment on Allerton Road with a fun friendly atmosphere with great service and friendly staff, in a warm welcoming atmosphere, highly recommended XXXXXX

Fantastic place to go for a Christmas meal. Mark and all the staff were so friendly and attentive. The festive menu was delicious. I would highly recommend eating or drinking here.

Well decorated for Christmas 🎄, but way too loud TVs and the bar staff were slow. Took 15 min to get 4 drinks.

Had fabulous meal yesterday with my partner at 4.30. Booked a table and was by a window as I’d hopefully requested. Fantastic staff friendly cheerful. Great atmosphere food exceptional and prices very reasonable. Best place we’ve been in for such a long time. Well done to management bar staff and chef. Truly 5*. Merry Christmas. Davie and Michelle. 🎄

Always go this place for some food and reasonable prices -afraid not anymore prices have gone through the roof for food and drink - bottle of wine £17 - Xmas food menu a rip off - no cheap drinks with meals - no drinks price list in the whole pub so no idea what any of the drinks costs are they making up the prices. So sad to see this place charge these prices - wont be going anymore as can get far cheaper drinks and food elsewhere. So long John Brodie - Allerton Road is just far too expensive now.

Great food relaxing atmosphere all staff was very helpful would highly recommend this pub

Lovely service! Came in to see relatives and the staff where incredibly helpful and friendly. Couldn’t fault them. Food was quick and piping hot! I will definitely be returning here! UPDATE Another visit, another amazing service. Can’t fault anything in The John Brodie. Amazing staff, fantastic atmosphere, gorgeous food and a wide variety of drinks. UPDATE 2023 Always pop in with friends/family and constantly greeted with a smile and a warm welcome. Food is always outstanding…always guilty of ordering food every time I’m there! Love poppin down and having a chat with staff, they’ll always go above and beyond for you and will never be afraid to go that extra mile for you. UPDATE Dec 2023 Can never get enough of coming here for a drink with friends and family. Very fair prices on drinks and food and the staff are second to none. Staff are not afraid to come over and have a friendly chat with you or discuss any issues you may have. Looking forward to a few Xmas drinks with friends and family. They recently told me about an app called Mixr (available on your App Store). You can earn point through scanning the QR Code. The more you scan the more money you earn towards a drink. When you download the app you get a complimentary drink! I was quick to download and use every time. Again, I wouldn’t have known this before the staff told me. Thank you!

Great atmosphere. Staff friendly and helpful. Great selection of ales and the draught IPA is good

Come here for the racing great beer mark and Vic excellent

Great pint of Guinness, Ross and his staff are excellent, my local

Cracking pint of guinness and good breakfast service from Mark and Victoria excellent

Great food from Mark and Ross in the kitchen. Great experience all round

My partner and I came for lunch on Thursday 12th October at 1 pm, I found it to be a nice place with a good menu. Unfortunately, customer service was seriously lacking, I spent nearly £14 on what looked like a lovely looking steak only to be told: " We Don't Have Any Steak Knives". This is unacceptable, and by the time I had struggled to cut through my steak with a normal table knife, it was stone cold. Had your staff informed me of your steak knife situation when I placed my order, I would have chosen a different meal. A disappointing experience on this occasion although I do appreciate your response in addressing my concerns.

If you’re not a regular punter be prepared to wait at the bar. Also told us food unavailable but other tables receiving their meals. Plenty of other establishments to visit on Allerton road, give it a miss.

Nice place to eat drink and chill

Came to the John Brodie for food and the whole experience was great! Excellent service from Mark who assisted us with allergen information and couldn’t do enough for us!

Really enjoyed my time here. Great food and service and staff really attentive. Will definitely return

Only popped in for a lemonade whilst passing. Haven't been there for years. Won't be in a rush to go back, furniture is manky and stinks. Staff were lovely though.

Been in on multiple occasions now, whether it was for a lovely affordable meal, to watch the football or to sit down and do a classic pub quiz. Bar is always clean and aesthetically looks superb. Will be returning👍🏼

Great atmosphere with football and 2 for 1 on the cocktail’s amazing staff amazing service amazing people

Lovely food, good value for money and even better service! Mark very friendly! Will definitely be returning 😊

First time I've been here. Walked across from one of the restaurants opposite. First time I've been in a Wetherspoons that didn't have any real ale on. Just stayed for a couple of drinks. Not impressed.

if that's your new policy. card payments only. then you won't be seeing me again

Popular local with good selection of beers,wines and spirits ar reasonable prices. Friendly ataff. Good atmosphere Highly recommended

Great pub, great staff and great service. Will definitely return.

We popped in with Our little dog Teddie for breakfast and we're made to feel so welcome. Great value for money with fantastic staff. We will be back.

An impromptu visit resulted in a very positive experience. Had the 10oz steak, cooked to perfection, actually felt like I'd had something to eat, and it was reasonably priced. My friend had the 10oz gammon steak and also said it was decent. 2 really decent meals and 2 drinks for under £30...bargain, will definitely be going back there again in future

Lovely place, nice atmosphere, staff very attentive

Lovely place, amazing staff and lovely food. Wide selections of drinks to fit all! Highly recommend for breakfast

Nice atmosphere, staff friendly, food poor.

Great pub with an extremely friendly environment and brilliant prices

In the last couple of years the menu has less choice and the amount/ size of the dishes smaller and not great.

Ordinary chain pub. Wine is cheap and cheery the food pretty much the same.

Just been there and literally stood at the bar for 10 minutes while the barmaids stood chatting wasn't even acknowledged so went back table got my coat and left.

Amazing pub, great staff, good food and excellent vibes

Absolutely fantastic pub , the staff are great and my dad even came back into my life after visiting

Friendly staff, pool table, relaxing atmosphere :)

Local pub quick food and good prices

A fantastic night with friends. The barman remembered our drinks. He was an absolute star!

Had breakfast with my husband after a hospital appointment & felt very "Homely" Staff were friendly & breakfast was very very tasty, Compliments to the chef (30th Dec 2022) Will definitely return again

Good vibe and affordable food and drink

Attended the John brodie for quiet drink. Was such a pleasant atmosphere, good music and easy to talk to staff. Victoria was very helpful.

Not a posh restaurant, it's a pub but you certainly get good food at a great price and the service was quite good and reasonably quick. Don't come here often but may come back soon after todays visit.

Ok, usually first place stop off befor going for meal. It's ok,

Came for breakfast on New year's Day. Great service. Fabulous breakfasts at great price. Lovely staff.

Came for food with my mum and brother food was amazing 10/10 for food staff made us feel very welcome Conor looked after us and helped in anyway he could we look forward to visiting again soon

Usually love this place but not today. Went in for their lovely chicken wings. Got told the kitchen was closed for at least 30 mins while they dealt with a big table that came on. Not a problem. But a guy 2 mins after me got food 10 mins later. Then I noticed other tables recieving food so went back up to re order just to be told the kitchen was closed again for another 30 mins. I tried to explain to the guy behind the bar that I had been waiting, but he wasn't too bright, then the girl who told me in the first place to wait 30 mins wasn't any better. Shocking service. So sad, because I love the place usually.

Had a fantastic afternoon with the family. Fantastic service and friendly staff. Big shout out to Connor who really looked after us. Thank you

Really nice comfy pub and decent food , I've ate in here a couple of times , but this time just called in for a few drinks and a game of pool on the way home , Only to be told they don't give change for the pool table and even suggested I go next door to the other pub and see if they have got change , something you would say to a child not someone 60 plus , and a strange way to try and keep customers , As it was I did go next door , and had my few drinks there

Came here for food with my mother in law Fiancée baby and brother in law for breakfast food was spot on well done to the Chef team where very welcoming and friendly and went above and beyond to help out in anyway they could Keep up the good work We look forward to returning

We love the John Broadie, its a great pub! They have a Great selection of drinks, the food menu is extensive and if you ask the Staff, they will do their best to accomodate to make the food to your liking. We always feel welcome at 'the Broadie'. We bring our dog in most days and he always gets a warm welcome too with a treat if he is good 😁. They have started doing a Sunday roast too which is worth trying.

Had a great afternoon food was lovely service and staff were fantastic!! Will definitely be back.

Thanks to Ross and the team who went above and beyond to provided an excellent buffet for friends and family giving it the personal touch following a recent bereavement.

Thanks to Ross and the team for there excellent work and customer service. Friendly staff and welcoming atmosphere and environment. Also the brilliant food and looking after us after a family bereavement.

Came to the John Brodie with a few friends for a catch up, The food & drinks amazing. Staff was lovely and helpful couldn't of been better. Good atmosphere, also dog friendly 🐕👍🏻

Fantastic breakfast , staff are very friendly and polite. Great place.

Dreadful...I went in today for breakfast,to be told by the waitress that they're not taking food orders,despite there only being about 10 people in there,8 of who were actually eating...?!? As I'd arranged to meet someone there I sat down to wait. After 5 minutes the midget manager came out and asked me if I only wanted a breakfast? Presumably cause he decided that he could cook a basic fry up. I told him I don't want anything and I won't be eating in there ever again...He walked off and mumbled something along the lines of "bad attitude"....Awful,terrible place. I would urge anyone NOT to go in this place!

Good pint, decent food, clean and good service

Well, after working all Bank Holiday weekend, I decided I'd nip out for a steak dinner to John Brodie, only to be informed they had no steak... Well, you can only imagine the devastation I felt after starving myself ready for the loaded steak! I ended up having a burger, which kind of satisfied my meat craving, although I'm still wanting steak, the day after visiting! Burger wasn't bad like...Nice staff, but had to go and get my own mustard!

Great all day breakfast staff very pleasant nice place

We regularly go here for food as a family the staff always go above and beyond to help us especially like. The food is always amazing and mark the chef always comes to the table to check everything is okay. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area

Great food mark really know what he doin in that kitchen

Great breakfast. Ross the boss top guy.

Cracking pub! Very clean, friendly staff. Didn’t have food but will definitely return for some as it looked great. Different offers for seniors and children, you can also book a booth to watch the horse racing! Shows a lot of sports! Great place.

Lovely place, food and the staff are amazing big shout out to Luke he was a star!
