Lime Street Central in Liverpool

When the bar staff ignore you in favour of a larger group it's disappointing. I thank the young man being served who informed the staff I was before him. (The staff member was unapologetic). Sad to drop my rating. Not sure you can give a good rating to a place with such overwhelmed staff. So we went somewhere else. The service is poor and good luck getting politeness or efficiency. There was even a fellow ahead of me trying to place a large meal order complaining about the service. I formerly gave this venue four stars, but the service is non-existent.

We walked back from the stadium to the city center on a windy and inhospitable Sunday after a Liverpool FC game and were delighted to have had a nice end to the day in Lime Street Central. The food was good and the price-performance ratio was also positive. I recommend this location

Poor service, extremely slow. I wouldn't bother

Came here for the Pub Quiz and had a great night, special thanks to Eddie for the brilliant service!

Came in for a drink and was served by Kate, she's absolutely lovely and gave great recommendations of what to see in Liverpool. Will definitely be back on my next visit to the city!

Average service here: Food is the same like any other place, especially for KFC or McDonald's

Although we weren't hungry, so many people were eating that we looked at the menu. There's always a full range of drinks xx

Helpful, pleasant staff. Food good. Impressed with cleanliness of toilets. No pies mentioned in next section for food !!! Excellent

This is honestly the best place to go to in Liverpool. I come here atleast 3 times a week

Honestly one of the best places I’ve been to in Liverpool came in today just to kill time before my train and Brooke was the most accommodating blessing I could’ve asked for explained all the drinks and food perfectly and served me in giffy. Will definitely be back soon.

Disgusting smothered chicken. Rock hard round the edges, Obviously been microwaved. Staff Not bothered when complained. He said I’ll tell the chef. No one apologised. Think he was the chef.

Nice food. Drinks bit overpriced but thats town for you.

The wonderful driver of this train today John, took time to speak with my train loving daughter, I can't say how happy it made her and myself feel after such a stressful day, we came past to see the trains come in & out and John absolutely made our day, with his kind nature, friendliness & professionalism, Thank you so much for your time it meant a lot to us. We wish the world had more people like yourself. Thank you again 🙂

Fantastic food, very friendly staff, lovely place to sit with interesting decor. Will return

My twin brother and I were pub and bar hopping around this part of the city when we decided to drop into Lime Street Central, been here before on many occasions, always had a good time and so it proved on our latest visit. A really big bar ,interior is superb, modern, light and airy, great decor and furnishings, an eye catching serving bar dominates the main room, big screens to enjoy the sport and plenty of seating options spread throughout this bar, its just a really good bar to unwind in. We got a pale ale each ,these were served in excellent condition ,we chilled out and planned out the day ahead while sipping our pale ale's. My pale ale was really good, a hoppy, well balanced, well crafted pale ale, hints of toffee, a delicious aroma and aftertaste with a smooth finish, a classic British pale ale served in a great bar by staff who really know how to keep and serve a good beer, its hardly surprising that this bar is so popular with beers served in this good a condition. We really enjoyed our pale ale's in here before we moved on and as on every other visit to Lime Street Central we had a great time . Lime Street Central is easy to locate along Lime Street, a street and area teeming with pubs, bars, cafe's and restaurants. Opening hours are; Monday to Friday, open from midday. Saturday & Sunday, open from 10am. Well worth checking out if you're in the area.

We visited this venue after a trip to see a university, on arrival we found a table and got a drink from the bar , we ordered food from the menu off the app , this was a good experience until the food arrived , the club sandwich was two slices of white cheap bread , upon picking it up it fell to pieces revealing rocket salad everywhere , finding and tasting the two strands of bacon that had been clearly refried was an experience in itself , the lumps of chicken were so bad I spent the next ten minutes getting the strands out of my teeth , not good in front of my family . This cost around £7.50 and was just a sandwich that a child would put together , as for it being called a club sandwich it was a clubbed sandwich. Really disappointed with greene king , think somebody needs to get rocket up there backside and sort this out . The staff and venue is the only positive of my visit .

Our friends and I stopped by for lunch, and wow! What a treat! Stu and Courtney gave us excellent service, the wine was delicious, and the steak and ale pie was luscious! What a treat! Don’t miss it!

Nice place ! Not been before. Popped in around lunch time for tea and coffee. They catered for my Vegan friend regards Soya milk ( not many venues do). Lovely atmosphere in there and staff very friendly.

28.08.24. We got off the train and had lunch here before the Beatles tour we were going on. Cool, I recommend it!

Visited twice now both times staff have been very helpful. Choice and price of drinks good.

Staff very friendly premises clean

Met family visiting from New Zealand for drinks and lunch. We had a great time. The staff - Brooke and a chap (sorry - didn't get his name) were absolutely brilliant... so welcoming and helpful ... nothing was too much trouble. Food was great. Drinks went down really well! And a great time was had by all! We'll definitely be back!

Definitely a fantastic place to go to as we did today as our normal place to dine was closed so we tried Liverpool lime Street Central and I got to say that the food, service and atmosphere was very pleasant we plan to visit the place again 😁

Great place to eat and drink relaxed atmosphere friendly staff

Never been here before but will definitely go again. Fish and chips lovely and tasty. Service and staff excellent. Would definitely recommend.

Went mid day about 3 weeks ago and everyone's food was either undercooked or over cooked I ordered the fish and chips and the fish was curled up a sign that the oil it was fried in was too hot The pie we ordered was soggy

Came in for a couple of drinks, staff were really friendly. Brown hair lad and girl on the bar were lovely and chatty.

Visited Sunday Afternoon my husbands birthday.. Absolute loved it bar staff were brilliant.. A girl served me a few times didn't get her name but what an asset

Disappointedw With menu . No fish on menu whatsoever so basically just burger

We had a works night out here and it was great, had a side room which was reserved for no cost, loads of seating and music and TV was in the background so you could actually chat to people. Highly recommend.

Staff are so friendly and helpful

Hired for private function. Great experience. Great staff . The buffet they provided was excellent

Shame there was no cask Abbott but everything else was great!

Bit pricey for the beers but love going in there

Nice food excellent service fair prices

Airy and not cramped, clean and easy to find information and platforms.

We came here as we was on a shopping day out in Liverpool and just needed a drink and a seat while we waited a bit for our train departure time. A lot of tables had reserved signs on them so not many to chose from. Sat at 3 different tables for this reason, kept being moved, couldn't really relax. In my opinion far to many tables was reserved and this put alot of customers off, many walking in and back out again. Had some small plates in the end, food was delicious, waitress was very nice. Drinks: never had a mojito with such little mint in it, needed more. Nice and clean toilets. Nice place just need to re think there reservations in my opinion, maybe just stick to the bottom area and allow the top for walk ins. To be moved 3 times makes you feel unwelcome. It happened to alot of people around us aswell.

Shocking reservation system! Got moved 3 times in an hour. Made us feel totally unwelcome. Nice place, good location, nice tasty food but to be moved in the way we did was unacceptable. Shame on you! P.s more mint needed in mojitos.

A great experience in the centre of Liverpool. Food was fantastic (steak & ale pie) which was only beaten by the service levels.

Really nice place + friendly and helpful staff 👍🏻👍🏻

We visited lime street central pub recently and can honestly say I have never known such welcoming friendly staff. Soph greeted us and was so lovely. Nothing too much trouble. The food was gorgeous. I asked for extra beer cheese sauce it’s gorgeous ! Nothing too much trouble. We decided to go again the next night to watch the football and eat . It was such a good atmosphere and again felt so relaxed. Food gorgeous again and all staff chatty and friendly Eddie,Courtney,Kate, Charlie, Brooke . Next time we stay in Liverpool this will be our first destination. Honestly such a lovely experience.

Called in this pub twice late afternoon.rather quiet but a lovely pub offering table service close to main train station great choice of drinks.lilleys cider and great beers.food was very nice.steak pie one day and the fish and chips another.huge portion too and reasonable prices.

we were on a day out to the theatre and wanted somewhere nice to eat so reserved a table at Lime Street Central. When we arrived we could only find one staff member and he was serving at the bar so we waited for him to be free. We asked about our reservation and was told they weren't reserving tables that day so we could sit where we wanted. Although the restaurant looks pretty good there was really any comfortable dining places. We could either sit on high stools, at long benches or in a booth. We chose as a booth as I like to be comfortable however the booth's table was far to large for the seating at it just didn't feel right but by that point we couldn't be bothered moving. We decided to order the steak sandwiches as they sounded delicious. Mustard mayo, crispy onions and 14 day aged steak - yum. We also order 2 portions of fries and 1 portion of thick cut chips along with some coleslaw, gravy , garlic bread and onion rings. It all sound really good but that is not what arrived. The sandwiches arrived - they were 2 slices of white bread, no mayo, no onions but a ton of rocket and on each sandwich were 4 very small slices of steak that did not fill the bread so most mouthfuls consisted of just buttered Bread. The portions of fries/chips which we had paid for (£2.50 each) did not come separate but were already on the plate - all 12 of them so we had in effect paid 20p a chip/fry. That covered half the plate and the other half of the plate was just a pile of rocket (not salad just rocket) The coleslaw has a frozen lump in the middle and the merlot beef dripping gravy which we were looking forward to had a bitter burnt taste to it. Whilst we were there we did notice there only seemed to be 2 members of staff so I am not sure if they were short handed and one of them was having to do the cooking but we were really disappointed. We could have gone to the Wetherspoons across the road and probably got the same quality of food and much more of it for a lot cheaper but we were looking for somewhere nice for our day out. We won't be coming back again and sadly this has put us off visiting any Greene King establishments anywhere else. We have a 3 day trip planned to York and we were going to book at Ye Olde Starre Inn but I don't want our trip marred by a bad meal so we will be looking elsewhere.

Totally recommend this place! Staff were welcoming and helpfull ! Great to watch sports!

Always good to be back. Liverpool will always be my soft spot. 😇😍

My friend and I popped in for lunch before going to the theatre. I chose a chicken blt with salad and seasoned fries. Price very reasonable and staff very friendly. My friend had the Mac and cheese with bacon and chunky chips. We ordered the food on the app and it came in a reasonable time and was delicious. The place had a good atmosphere and was nice and clean. Highly recommend and will return.

Had our wedding reception here 5.6.24 Staff was absolutely amazing ♥️ food was delicious guests was happy so a big massive thank you from mr and mrs Henderson ♥️thanks guys ♥️

First visit but was good, access to table straight away, not a huge selection of food, but enough and was spot on! Service was good.

Nice place for watching footy and spending time with friends!

Had to find platform 1a but got help from train person

Had a food reservation for a table of 6. Initial service was good. Had to order via the app as no server showed up. Starters arrived quickly and we're good. The mains arrived and there was a problem with one of them being over cooked. We tried to get the attention of a girl in glasses but she just kept ignoring us and walking past. Eventually someone else assisted and offered to exchange it for a different meal. That meal arrived quickly and was good. The attitude of the server was not the best and said that the food that was sent back was perfect. It was not. We finished the meal and left. Won't be returning this was my 2nd visit and this time was a total difference to the 1st.

Exceeded expectations! Came in to town for a day and showed up for lunch when they opened. The staff couldn’t have been nicer! The bartender gave me a couple of samples of local brews prior to me finding a new favorite! (Nothing like a knowledgeable bartender to set up a good lunch). The food came quickly and was very good. Both the curry chicken sandwich and chicken BLT did not disappoint, with fresh ingredients and no overpowering flavors. A relaxed casual atmosphere steps from the train, and definitely a pub worth revisiting!

Made a flying visit before the theatre on a Saturday night around 6.30pm. Hadn't been before. What a find! Lovely setting, a mix of people just having early evening drinks, some out for a bite to eat. We ordered 5 small plates from the menu. The food arrived quickly and every dish was just fantastic. Great value for money and a well thought out decor. Highly recommend.

Nice decor, nice choice of drinks and food with good service. Always a good atmosphere and popular with all ages.

Had a cheese toasty and house fries and a. Pint of level head. Nice drink but food was absolutely awful. Cheese toasty on thin bread. Tasted like it had been deep fried, with a oily taste on it. Chips were disgusting. Needed to go under the sunlamp, pale and tasteless. Teaspoon of salad. It looked as bad as it tasted. Would go back in for a drink but would never have food there again.

Great pub, good atmosphere, good beer and good food!

Very nicely restored station and building which uplifts the look and atmosphere of the city.

Burger was good, staff were nice

Sorry, food should have been 4 my mistake. Have amended.

Good selection of beers, lots of screens to watch the match

Food was absolutely dire. Ordered and paid for three sandwiches and chips. The two steak sandwiches arrived without the crispy onions on and were lukewarm, as was the cod goujon sandwich. The bread for all of them seemed stale. None of them came with the chips that we ordered. We asked where they were and were told we had to pay separately for them - something we had already done! The manager came and said we hadn’t ordered them. We insisted we had so she went to check the till and came back and said we had in fact ordered and paid for them. Also ordered a salad with chicken which was not honey-glazed and for almost £15 it looked like half of a £1 salad bag from Lidl with some cheap packet chicken thrown on. We were offered the food to be made again or refunded. We took the refund as quite frankly it was disgusting and would not return.

The football view was great and the potato dish was really delicious, but the cinnamon buns were a bit too dry. Overall delicious and friendly staff

Nice Greene King pub. Had a couple nice cocktails and a few pints of Flathead lager. Excellent service and staff.

Great pub! We hired the back room for an event and it was perfect 🍻 Top staff and good food and drink options, something for everyone 🙌

Excellent find in thr centre of Liverpool. Great atmosphere and people are sound and friendly

I had a meal here, it was fantastic. I got fish and chips, the best I've ever got in my life

Stayed in city centre as visiting for the Aintree race meeting. Decided to eat here as we had popped in for a drink while staying in Holiday Inn just over the road. The staff were so friendly we ordered food which was probably the best we have ever had in a Green King. We shared the Nachos which had the hand made type spiced tortilla chips. The burger was cooked really well and the Hallumi wrap was really tasty all served by a lovely lady whose name I did not catch. Lots of large tables eating so we guess others feel the same with so much choice around confirms how good it is.

One of the most vibrant places to visit on.

The food today was excellent - we were told Will was the chef - can’t complain, incredible food, incredible bloke

Stopped here for a late dinner after coming off of the train. Happened to be the night England was playing Brazil in a friendly. Nice. Atmosphere was pretty rowdy. Had a great sandwich and a couple pints of cask ale. Being so busy, the staff handled it well. Would absolutely return.

Great place for food,beer,sport & music, travelled down from Dumfries for a concert we all went here prior to concert came back Sunday for football,will return.

Thought we would try out this place before heading home. We ordered the flat iron steak, chicken bites and triple cooked chips. Food was lovely though the steak was overcooked (asked for rare/ medium rare got well done) the onion rings that came with the steak also tasted of donuts oddly? Other than this lovely place, great staff, music and decor.

Lovely night 30th birthday party . Room great nice comfy atmosphere 👌

Lovely pub with live sports events all the time, perfect location, plenty of room to seat and stand, nice staff

Great place loads to do and see!

Been here a few times now. Decent pub near Lime st station with a good selection of beers, and helpful bar staff.

Reasonable prices, good burgers and music 🎶

Having arrived in Liverpool with slight hangovers, we were starving. Saw this place and thought it would do some standard comfort food. We were pleasantly surprised. My husband had a steak (under £15). I had a burger and my daughter had a vegetarian burger. Prices were so reasonable and on top of that they offered students 20% off. My burger was very well made. My husband said the steak was well cooked too. Excellent.

Ordered cocktails through the app, waited 20 minutes, went to the bar and there were 4 checks just hanging around even though it was a quiet afternoon....when you offer the app ordering system, make sure the bar staff know their job...

I had my birthday here in a section of the bar. It was even better than I had imagined. The staff were hosting not one, but two events that night and were incredible. The management were lovely, so welcoming were very patient with such a big group. The ticket system for the drinks that were on the tab were a seamless system and I couldn’t have asked for a better place to have booked. Thank you to all the staff working that night and a special thanks to the management team!

Convenient for Liverpool LimeStreet station

Cold beer and friendly bartenders. What more could you ask for? Great crowd too!

I felt impressed with the Key Lime Coffee. Here is a lovely and lively establishment nearby the Lime Street Station. The steak cheese baguette was of good quality and tasted beautiful. The roasted coffee was of high quality too. Staff were exceptional and the price was reasonable. I would recommend this place to everyone

We attended the restaurant. Walking LGBT group. Probably abit lively and loud so I apologise. But food and service was great. Facilities was lovely and atmosphere was nice. Beautifully decorated

Great food and atmosphere. Will be going again

food was good but a member of staff came off as pretty rude to my family tonight. my dad had accidentally ordered an extra plate which he apologised for, yet he got told off like a child and was told 4 times to “double check what he’s ordering next time” and was guilt tripped by saying “a plate of food is gonna go in the bin because of this” we understand that we were in the wrong, but it was a genuine accident on our behalf and apologised but there was no need to guilt trip us into “wasting food” and to continuously tell us to double check. you could have just said “oh you made a mistake, we’ll send you a refund or you can have the extra plate” my dad was already having a bad day and i tried to treat him to a nice meal and this didn’t help. anyways, overall, decent food but the service came off as rude

Had a lovely meal in there this week

Came here on New Year's Eve, and the food as well as the staff were brilliant. Nice open, clean bar, with large screens for the footy. Had a good choice of gluten-free for my niece. We came to see a show, and this is a good pit stop to do this

Good food and friendly helpful staff.

Visited here on my trip I love the atmosphere very fun and enjoyable experience

Great atmosphere, lovely staff and good prices....we didn't eat

Hi Recently visited this venue today and my experience was different, ordered drinks which i felt had a large head, froth. I asked politly for this to be topped up which the barman procèded to top with lemonade. I then complained, the bar staff went on to put the drinks down and ignore me. On asking other staff for manager, i was informed they were too busy. Disappointed with their customer service today. I await a reply from Greene King as i dont feel this is not their normal level of service.

Great station with beer and food pub attached

Fish and chips was good not expensive. Could Order via App.

Hm. Drinks more expensive there compared to some other bars I've been to in the city centre of Liverpool. Nearly 5 quid for a pint of orange and lemonade when I normally get it for 3 quid! Also me and my mate got charged different prices for the same ale. Decor is nice though and you can play some games.

Great venue just off the train. Great for food, sports, getting the night started and everything in between.

Excellent Venue! Always Great Beers on Tap and excellent Food. Wonderful Staff as well!

Good beer selection and welcoming staff. Bar Manager was very friendly and went above and beyond for making our visit a succes. Would come back another day

Classy bar to watch the world go by
