We had a lovely dinner last night. I booked two weeks ago. At one time you would have had to book weeks in advance. I was nervous as I had received no confirmation or reminder but they were expecting us. There is a lovely area upstairs which may be new. We all had different things. The food was excellent and drinks were reasonably priced. We went at 6 and when we were about to leave very loud music started. If you have anyone in your party who has hearing issues it may be best to check before booking.

I recently paid a visit to Libby's Bread and Wine, and let me tell you, it was an experience... but not a good one. The staff there were like the human embodiment of "I don’t get paid enough for this." It was like I was interrupting their personal space-time continuum just by walking in. First off, when we arrived, the hostess gave us a look like we had just shown up at her personal therapist’s office and were asking for free advice. She seemed absolutely mystified that we had the audacity to want to sit down and order food. When we asked if we could sit at a table, she pointed at a corner with a single chair, as though suggesting, “You can sit here if you like the idea of being crammed in like a sardine.” The server who eventually came over to take our order looked like she had just been dragged out of bed for the express purpose of dealing with our existence. She didn’t even ask if we were ready to order — just stared at us like we were an alien life form and maybe she'd take pity on us if we gave her a moment to process. When we finally placed our order, I swear she sighed so loudly I thought she was about to start crying. And don’t even get me started on the "service" — she practically threw our plates down as if they were hot potatoes and gave us a look that said, “You happy now? Because I sure am not.” Honestly, the whole place felt like a weird, uncomfortable sitcom where the laugh track never came. Maybe Libby’s should consider giving their staff some acting lessons, or at the very least, a course in basic human interaction. I’m all for rustic charm, but this was just… awkward. Would I return? Only if I’m craving a side of existential dread with my croissant.

We turned up at 1.45 on Sunday and were told that they has stopped serving food. We ordered drinks and while we were there we noticed that food was coming from the kitchen until around 2.20. on leaving I asked the waiter what time they stopped serving food on Sundays to be told 'we say 2pm, but is usually around 1.40' ... very disappointing. We left feeling like they just didn't want our custom. I've been a regular visitor for years and its really going down the pan. The food is still very good generally, but the level of service is dreadful.

This place was honestly the best I've ever been to for breakfast. I opted for poached eggs on toast and the flavour was phenomenal. I'm still thinking about it now! The service was good and the place has a nice atmosphere. Recommend booking ahead so you aren't disappointed as the place is popular and I can see why.

We went to Libby's for my son and his new wife's breakfasts the day after they got married as we thought it would be a nice gesture. With the amount of money that was paid for 5 breakfasts £103.00 incl drinks, I would have expected nicer. Myself, my son and husband had a cooked breakfast, the scrambled eggs were slimy and had a wierd taste. The bacon was burnt and hard on all 3 meals, we didnt feel right at all for the whole day afterwards. My eldest son ( who was the one that got married) liked his vegan mushroom, but my dauther in law, didnt like her cheese toasty at all either. If we do ever visit again we will not eating any food, The cups of tea was the best part.

Having read some sketchy reviews about Libby’s, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and the service. We had the evening menu and the tapas was pretty good and reasonable value (apart for the £3 croquette which, although tasty, is overpriced!). The service was efficient, friendly and unfussy. Would go back.

Short and sweet. We only nipped in for a takeaway breakfast sandwich, the restaurant wasn’t busy atall. I ordered two sausage ciabattas, no butter, ciabattas were cold and hadn’t been toasted. The sauce was cheap. Such a simple thing to get wrong and priced at £7.50 each. Useless!!

I’ve been coming to Libby’s for 9 years now for coffee, breakfast, lunch. It’s always had weirdly slow service (never expect your coffee to arrive before your meal), but it had a deserved reputation for incredible cakes and bread, great breakfasts and decent lunches. Unfortunately since the new owners took over a few months ago it’s gone backwards. The bread is ok now, but nothing special. The cakes and pastries are pedestrian (and for some reason have been moved from an always-amazing display on the bar, to a shelf in the window - in the the full sunshine so they sweat all through the morning). The daytime menu is limited, and the food has gone fussy (my picky daughter had eggs on toast, as it was the simplest thing on the menu - even that was drowned in pesto for some reason). And the service is just as slow as ever, if not slower. It’s such a shame - Libby’s is an institution in Marple Bridge, and it feels like it’s undergoing a slow death. I’m sure the new owners have the best intentions - but they need to get a grip on the kitchen, get a top quality baker again, stop spoiling the cakes and pastries by leaving them in the sun, and maybe even sort out the slow service?

Sorry guys, but a recent purchase of some pastries has left me disappointed. Almond croissants were doughy, no filling whatsoever ( are you using a flavouring !). Expensive. Almost tasted like we were eating yesterdays offerings ?. Service with a smile would also help.

Unfortunately I had a bad experience today. I ordered leek and Potato soup. I can only describe it as green tasteless slop. I did ask the waitress to check if it was meant to be leek and potato. She checked with the chief and he said it was. I replied I couldn’t eat it. I wasn’t at all rude.To be fair the waitress asked if I wanted anything else. I didn’t. I tried to enjoy the rest of my time with my friend. Once I had complained about the taste of the soup, I watched the waitress, taste the soup and laughed with the chief , which made me feel very uncomfortable. I then noticed the chief preparing plentiful batch cooking and placing lots of sliced cucumbers in bags, the green slop and what looked like coleslaw. At one point he opened a plastic food bag with his mouth to get the slop in ! He then continued to put his finger in the cucumbers , then into his mouth. Awful. They did take the price of the soup off, but found it all a bit strange way to reflect on a negative taste test!

My husband and 4 friends went for dinner and had high hopes as we'd been many times for coffee and cake. Firstly, it took ages for someone to take our order and when we did order they'd ran out of the cod by 8pm! Eventually my alternative fish arrived and nothing else for 15 minutes, so it was getting cold and I asked the Manager when the rest of our food would be served and his response was "it's Tapas and that's how Tapas works, it comes in stages" I replied "so this piece of fish is to serve all 6 of us with nothing else" and he said "yes, that's tapas?!". My friend who had suggested Libby's was mortified the way he spoke to me! The food eventually started to come and then we were told "we've ran out of the chunky chips!" but it was fine as we had a replacement. I have to say the food was actually good, but overpriced, small menu (for a vegetarian/pescatarian) and small portions .....but it was tapas right?!!). It's such a shame as his attitude ruined our experience at Libby's and we won't be back for "Tapas" or cake. I'll stick with All Things Nice in Marple...lets hope they have a better manager! ps. the other staff members of staff were actually very nice!

the food was ok , they certainly need to up there game with the competition on town street , have esten a libbys for years but haven’t esten there for 12 months after a disappointing experience unfortunately it hasn’t improved , the service was very poor it was very quiet in the restaurant we didn’t get asked if we were ok for drinks or if we would like a dessert the staff were polite but jyst not attentive , recieved the bill which included 10percent tip , never done this before but we didn’t pay the tip , i think the tip should be discretionary and u fortunately due to mediocre food and poor customer service we could not justify the tip , sorry libbys

We didn't enjoy this at all. We had 2 veggie breakfasts - small portions, including only one egg, aside from huge chunks of toast (asked for brown but given white), some items warm at best, lacked flavour/ seasoning. Scrambled egg had a weird grey colour. At £12.95 each, very poor value. Others had avocado and poached eggs on toast - ok, but again the toast was so thick that it was tough to eat. £57 in total for 4 people with tea/coffee - way overpriced for the quality and we won't be returning.

Nice restaurant and nice staff but some dishes disappointing. The house salad was a bit limp and the salad leaves rather sour tasting so didn’t enjoy . Goats cheese is on a few dishes but no alternative offered of feta (don’t like goats cheese ) The fried cauliflower wasn’t quite right or the pasta with peas rather poor but some dishes were very nice . I liked the chicken wings and the pizza . I would go again but hope the restaurant takes on board our comments ?!

Not a good experience - tried to order but were advised at least 6 of the main savoury items were unavailable. One diner with nut and sesame allergy ordered and explained the allergies. Another diner was given the ordered cake and coffee but it was another 20mins before somebody came to the table to say there was too much chance of cross contamination for the ordered toastie. This should be made clear on their menu - advising they don’t cater for people with allergies. We then waited another 15 mins for the 3rd diner to receive their toastie, which was missing an element. Poor customer service ( though not taking away from the waiting staff - this is down to poor management) and expensive fare.

Was my first visit today to libbys after I’ve been recommended by a few people - safe to say I won’t be returning again. Was really busy when we arrived but went really quiet within the first 10 minutes to no excuse for the poor, slow service, I was handed my drink with a big black hair in the glass🤮we told the waitress about this and asked for a fresh one to which this appeared to be a chore as I was left with an eye roll. I ordered a steak sandwich to which the bread was literally wet through with grease resulting in me not eating it, my friends eggs royale was full of egg shell as well. When asking for the bill the lady who worked there was incredibly rude to my friend - not one person came to check during the meal if the food was ok, after we paid the waitress (same one who was rude to my friend) said was it okay and we said well no not really, stated the points above and we got a response of ‘well I find it hard to believe as that hasn’t happened before’ absolute shambles of a cafe won’t be returning.

1. Was the food delicious? Yes 2. Was the service good? No. They were rushed off their feet so took ages to come take our order. The drinks arrived after the food and were wrong. I am coeliac and they said the sausage had gluten in, so I asked if it could be replaced with something else for the full cook. At first they said no, then they said yes. But when my food came there was an oily space where a sausage clearly had been and then they'd remembered I couldn't have it and taken it off. Not great in terms of cross contamination. I wiped it off with a napkin, and didn't bother chasing up for something else as it had been such a shambles so far I thought there's no point. I would say if it was quiet maybe you'd get better service, but we came here before for just drinks when it was, and they got my mums order wrong. 3. Was there a nice atmosphere? Yes 4. Did it have a beautiful decor? Yes 5. Was it worth the price? No

Libbys used to be our go-to cafe after a run with friends - but no more. Over the last few months the service, food and overall value has been steadily getting worse. The staff used to be so good, so attentive but not any longer. One or two of the staff are still good, but the others regularly get orders wrong, miss out the basics and you have to repeatedly ask for things. No one seems to be in charge. The menu has changed for the worse and prices have gone up. They also seem to be cutting corners with the meals and also forget things like not toasting bread ??. So, they've lost our business and I know other locals are equally disappointed. A real real shame and I just hope the new owners take notice and get things back to what they were.

Disappointed with the granola that was described as homemade and listed as having walnuts, hazelnuts, coconut, almonds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds and Greek yogurt and berries. There were no identifiable nuts or seeds (in their natural form) and instead it was very similar to eg bio-me granola and mostly grains/puffed grains. Trying to keep carbs/sugar low as pre-diabetic so disappointing. We are only occasional visitors and the Coffee and menu didn’t seem as good as last year. I told the staff so hopefully either the granola will be more like it was last year or more accurately described on the menu.

Great ambiance, food and friendliness BUT no sneeze plate in front of their lovely pastries which are definitely in coughing distance. Lady in front of us wouldn’t buy cakes because of that.

Popped in for some lunch, the food was average and a little thrown together with not much presentation. The waitress was just rude, nothing warm or friendly about her and we even had the pleasure of an eye roll when we asked for water, plenty...

Used to be the evening hub of the village, now run by teenagers trying to close the kitchen and bar by 9.30pm Food is still good but portions smaller but the service and experience is nothing like it used to be. No sign of new...

We have been for breakfast for the last two Saturdays as we remained hopeful that the new management may have had a positive impact on the quality of service. This has not been the case. Last week we dined outside. One of the chairs was...

Very poor service. Sold out of almost every breakfast option by 10am on a Saturday morning. Got the drinks orders all wrong. Asked for water as soon as we sat down and it didn’t arrive until we were leaving - and with 3 glasses for...

Had a late lunch here today with my wife and daughter. Place was really busy with a relaxed and happy atmosphere. Lunch menu is about 10 items with a few additional sides. The food was piping hot and nicely presented. The young staff were quietly...

We went here on Thursday morning to have breakfast after reading reviews and recommendations from family. We arrived at 9.30 to find it all locked up and a hand written note on the door saying closed for TLC. I understand these things have to be...

We’d heard great things about the food at Libby’s and were finally able to try it recently. Our drinks orders went through all fine and came quite quickly. When we were ready to order food the waitress advised she would need to wait for 5...

This was my first time at Libby’s after hearing many good things about it and I wasn’t disappointed. We were seated outside which is undercover with heaters so we didn’t feel the cold at all. Cocktails were amazing and so was the food! We got...

Really poor organisation- slipping downhill fast. We often come to Libby’s on a Saturday morning and we appreciate that it is busier than normal at the moment- we have no objections to a bit of a wait for our food and drinks. However, the organisation...

I visit Marple Bridge frequently for work and pop into Libby's on countless occasions. The food is exquisite (especially the breakfast and cakes which will genuinely make you turn your back on supermarket bakery bits FOR LIFE). All their bakery bits are made every single...

People sitting in the restaurant are neglected for the sake of those wanting take outs. When we arrived there was lots of free tables and around 8 table service/deli staff. We placed our order of two teas and a cake after which an influx of...

I was made to feel very welcome. Ask for some advice on the menu. In less than two minutes I had ordered two dishes based on my tastes. Got them home and they were both absolutely lovely. Price was good value and I will certainly go again .

Nipped in after a visit to the Cork of the North wine bar. The restaurant was bustling and lively Ordered a sharing platter to start and some tapas to follow. All of the food was excellent, the staff attentive and helpful. They provided some great tips on the what was in the platter against our tapas choices. Overall more than happy to recommend and I'm keen to go back.

When we got there, the entire restaurant was empty. We asked and the waiter explained it’s just because of the school going back in. We accepted this as a possibility and ordered. The starters came but unfortunately they was slightly underwhelming. We just hoped the food we had ordered for mains would be better. The sea bass my partner had was greasy, the potatoes were obviously microwaved or not fresh and I didn’t even touch my burger as it looked like a fatter rustlers burger. Spent £57 to be told that we couldn’t have a refund on the inedible fish. They apparently DO NOT have a refund system on their till. Date night ruined with my long distance relationship and has completely ruined the evening. Was offered more fish but we obviously declined. Never been so unhappy with food before. What a joke.
