Lux37 in Sefton

Fantastic coffee, fantastic cocktails, amazing atmosphere and amazing staff. Dog friendly

Unplanned visit. Great music,friendly staff.enjoyed tge experience. Wil.be back

A great win over United made even better by the atmosphere and great pricing. 2 for 1 at the bar blew our minds.🤣 It was like going back in time. Great pint aswell ❤️

Great atmosphere and drink deals. Staff friendly and helpfull

Great place for drinks with a huge TV! Comfy seating.

Boring and soulless with bully doorman never anyone in there apart from kids, unfortunately it’s become in my view a dingy dark cheap looking village bin the 2nd it will not last against its competition

Been going to the lux regularly since opening as it is a great bar to go Baz and Kev and all the staff are brilliant go above and beyond to make sure you have a good time here food drinks very reasonable and live music what’s not to like ❤️

Nice atmosphere, 5.80 for a pint of peroni. Good service,nice and relaxing with seating outside and in. Can even buy cakes off the bar

Great bar, live music, big screen and tvs for sports, staff are awesome friendly and helpful. Offers on daily. Plenty of choice. Great bar. Best in the area.

Service was excellent & very quick. Jess was very attentive 🥰

My favourite coffee and cake stop in Formby, a great value deal at £4.50. The cake is excellent and my reward after a lane swim early Sunday morning! Service is always good, Keira is a great host, polite with a friendly and welcoming smile. Difficult to mark atmosphere due to the early hour on a Sunday morning, the late night revellers from Saturday night probably still in bed! All in all a good venue and well worth a visit, it’s got to be better than the corporate giants elsewhere in the village! Use it or lose it! It gets my vote.

Manager an arrogant ignorant chap

Go for the delightful bar tenders Sophie and Suzie! The sweetest most helpful staff God ever made!!

always have such an amazing time here great atmosphere incredible srevice and lovely people. suzie and sophie are lovely girls.

Always love coming here, food and drinks are unreal, all the staff are lovely shoutout to Suzie who always looks after us and makes us feel welcome!

Beth is a credit to the place, her service was exceptional. Such a lovely bubbly person who makes a great coffee!!

Great place, friendly staff and the coffee is great.

I love the Lux37 atmosphere is brilliant. The only downfall for me is the ladies toiles they are dank dark and don’t look that clean because of the colour I think. Honestly that is the only down side for me that’s why I gave a 4

Place looks ok from the outside but when inside it is very cheap look like plastic furniture, looks like a pop up bar, it has no atmosphere and definitely couldn’t wait to get out and move on the place was empty on a Friday that tells you something.

My fave place. Even a dodgy footy result tonight doesn’t make this place any less lovely. We’ve been very well looked after tonight by Sophie and Peter. #bestbarinFormby

Bad service ,bad coffee!! They also forgot to bring me what I ordered. The babyccino for my baby was very hot! They weren't even busy!!! It's a shame such a wasteful place!

Utterly awful place to have a pint due to management and parental non control of children. Not going back

Tell your bouncers to stop parking on the pavement. Absolutely no need.

Great coffee.food on menu looks good at very reasonable prices .a bit too noisy for us oldies but it was a Saturday. Will return on a weekday!

What a night! DJ was fabulous - could have danced all night was the best night out this year -be back soon

Bit quiet for a Saturday, but it's Formby so........

Went in for the 2 for 8 pound cocktail and they were very nice it was happy hour aswell

Popped in for a drink and a light lunch after a stroll across the beach. Nice friendly staff, food was hot and good portion sizes for the price.

Located in the heart of Formby village in an old bank, Lux37 is an attempt at a concept I love: a business with separate functions that allows it to open all day (in this case a café and bar). Unfortunately, it misses the mark on both. I visited during the morning for coffee and cake, and so will be predominantly reviewing it as a Cafe. The coffee (flat white) was pretty awful. It was so hot that I could still barely drink it after 20 minutes. It was about the right quantity for a flat white, but served in a tall mug, and had no attempt at latte art. The underlying coffee flavour was okay, but that's unfortunately all the good I could say for it. They need to drastically lower the temperature of the milk, train the staff on how to texture it, and choose the right mugs. The cake was nice, so no complaints there. It was soft enough to taste fresh and was great value for money when included in their coffee and cake deal. Staff were very friendly, and dealt with a few unusual patrons whilst we were there very well. The decor of Lux37 is that of a dark and secluded luxury bar / nightclub. This looks like it would work well for the bar side, but works poorly for the cafe. Additionally, they have more recently adapted the place to function as a sports bar, including adding a giant screen and TV showing sports, which clearly clashes with their vibe as a luxury bar and cafe. All of this combines to create a strange concept that fails to function as a Cafe, a high end bar, or a sports bar. I think they're capable of achieving any of them well, maybe even two of them, but they need to focus as currently they seem to be missing the mark on all three. A good example of this is that their table-based bar menu looks luxurious and exclusive, yet the drinks menu above the bar looks like they've printed it on plain white paper and hastily hung it up. There was apparently only one highchair available. I appreciate that the main function of this spot is not as a Cafe, and thus multiple highchairs may seem like an unfair request, but I do think that if you're opening for a few hours as a Cafe in a family orientated town that you could spend a few quid on some more IKEA chairs. Unfortunately we won't be back unless they drastically change something.

Outstanding service and excellent pricing.... Highly recommended.

My husband and I have been coming here practically every day for the past few weeks whilst we wait for our little boy and the staff are absolutely amazing the seating is really comfortable and the whole place has a very relaxing atmosphere. The food is delicious, and everything is reasonably priced they even do deals on drinks and food together. Whilst we've been coming here, we've noticed a few regulars that are also there every day, and the staff treat them like well loved family members. I highly recommend this place.

Have been here just for coffee twice in the last few weeks and they make great coffee!

I dropped into Lux37 for a Long Island Iced Tea in memory of Les Snow who passed around this time last year. We had shared experiences of having this cocktail in Australia and Caesars Palace ..great memories. The two barmen who helped serve me were kind and considerate, not to mention skilled at their art. It tasted superb. Cheers to them and Les.

I've only been during the day but have found it welcoming with good service. A pleasant experience overall.

Called in for a pannini and coffee at £5 can't really go wrong. Also the staff are lovely.

Lovely time, friendly staff and very welcoming. Really recommend this place for a daytime or evening out. Great for the footy too the screen is massive

Popped in for a coffee & cake which was delicious. Staff were very friendly & nothing was too much trouble. The bar looks great. Will return for something stronger 💪☺️

Nice staff, nice coffee but seemed a bit soulless like it was missing that wow factor. Couldn't relax as there was a hyperactive dog in there barking its head off, with the exception of guide dogs I don't see why people feel the need to bring them inside bars and why so many places in the UK have started to advertise Dog Friendly. I was a bit scared to be honest. Then 2 more lively but friendly dogs came in and the waitress let them jump on her and stroke them with the same hands she's serving with , lovely

Great atmosphere good music and good beers

Had driven past the bar several times and finally decided to give it a go. From the outside I was expecting to walk into a cool uplifting vibe but instead was greeted with a generally empty feel accompanied with some poor lonely person singing random cover songs. ( this was a Friday btw not a Tuesday!!) Birkdale and even Ainsdale have the right idea , very much an uplifting vibe and if you're not into that ,plenty of choice. Formby .........nowhere to have a boogie. Very Boring , very middle aged. Sorry......

Great 2 for 1 cocktails but need more seats

Welcoming venue and staff try hard but service is slow.

I've been here a few times. I really like it. The cocktails are delicious - even better in Happy Hour when they're 2-4-£8. Always quite a good atmosphere. Not the cheapest but where is.

Really lovely cafe / bar. The coffee and a panini deal for £5 is excellent value - I genuinely thought they’d forgot to charge me for the coffee until I saw the deal advertised at my table. The staff are lovely and give fantastic service, I’ll definitely be coming back to try the cocktails soon, but on a solo trip at 11am it did feel a little early! Thank you 🥰

Always enjoy my visits; great coffee and friendly staff in a charming atmosphere.

I have enjoyed this lovely place both at evening time and lunchtime. The atmosphere is superb for each, the chilled, but warm and inviting feel let's you sit and chat or just lose yourself with a stunning coffee and bite to eat with ease The evening time is filled with Happy people enjoying the plethora of entertainment available through the week. The staff all smile and chat. Just feels like a great family night out.

Fantastic cafe bar with great service and superb value for money!

Nice visit, we often go for coffees here or the occasional drink. They’ve recently started doing panini and a coffee for £5 my wife and her mother had one. Wife said it was okay and mother in law said it was a little bland but for £5 including a coffee personally I wouldn’t expect too much. It offers great value for money on drinks & the paninis so still well worth a 5 star review. IMO

Lovely place, nice staff , with live music, well run place I will be back , cheers

Amazing venue, great artists on.

First visit, ordered at the bar, paid cash didn't get any change, maybe they just assume 50p change should be kept as a tip - one glass was chipped the other cracked.

Fabulous staff. Dog friendly and a great pint. We sat outside as the weather was lovely. Would definitely recommend and can't wait 'till next visit. Thanx

Brilliant for an afternoon coffee. Best coffee I’ve had in the village, to be fair. Good service and value for money. Nice and relaxing. I’ll have to come back and see what it’s like at night. 😊

Joined my son and daughter in law for a drink here. Only there for about an hour. The wine choice was quite good and the bar staff very friendly. Novel to sit in the old vault. WILL NOT BE RETURNING ! The door staff are rude and abusive and most definitely well overly aggressive. They are supposed to be there to make you feel safe , not to try the start a fight! If you continue to use them , it will adversely affect your business !

Went in on a Thursday night and there was live music which was great 👍 and it busy but the staff kept things going really well .

This is a lovely big space, nicely done, also with a platform for live music which is always good. Unfortunately, when we visited we left after one drink because the music that was playing (not live) was awful. Maybe when it's quiet during the week it would be better to have something more chilled playing, rather than something that only appeals to 14 year olds. Cater to the people who'll be spending the money and maybe this bar will be one of the few that survives in Formby.

First visit. Popped in for a Cocktail during Happy Hour 5-7pm on Friday. It was 5.15 and the place was full. Friendly staff. Saw the Cream Cake selection and I will be back for a Coffee ☕ Wish I'd explored the old Bank Safe. Espresso Martini and the Lux Cocktails were both excellent 👌

Great bar, boss selection of bevys 👌

Really good addition to the Bars in Formby. Don't know where it is? Well, that would be the old Barclays on the corner. A nice independent place, with a really great team running it, along with staff, who have a great attitude, who want you served happy and enjoying your time with them. Lux37 comes with nice decor, well laid out seating all with a good vibe. The choice of Beers & Cocktails is really good. Don't drink? The good people at Lux37 have that sorted, with Coffee you'll just love. Want an extra shot in that, then just ask. Just remember, if they are busy or you have to wait a couple of minutes please remember to bear with them, they are only people doing their best. They shall get to you as soon as they can. *I am just a customer who lives in Formby who has no interest in the Company, other than wishing them well on their entry to the Formby Village Community.

Best place to be for dance music,many more, friendly staff. I had a great night 🍺 🍺 😀

Visited Lux 37 for drinks with a friend, staff lovely, good variety of drinks and snacks but urgent attention needed on the ladies toilets! For a new establishment recently opening 1 toilet seat missing, no hand dryer or towels to dry your hands. Other than that it’s got potential to be a good place to socialise

Good coffee, nice staff, considering it used to be Barclays Bank they have refurbished it well.

We had an amazing night ;we had booked a booth but on arrival the singer who was amazing was a little to loud for us chatty mums ,so no problem they moved us to the vault,,,the staff were amazing :we tried to book a cab on leaving but none available so waited outside we were waiting then offered a lift home from the owner : which was fantastic as I have mobility issues ;amazing night for young and not so young many thanks x highly recommend x

Wow what a lovely night we had the live music was great such a great mix of songs. The bar staff ace, perfect mojitos and trust me I've had a few in my time, good range of beers. The atmosphere was perfect 👌

Went to LUX 37 last night, absolutely great night, beautiful venue, singer sang a great range of songs amazing voice. Bar staff super friendly made the best mojitos. Will def be going back.

Kinda strange with dancing girls on the door beer a tad over priced but will go back there again they have live music but we couldn't stick around to hear it bar staff helpful tables cleaned down after use

So happy that Lux 37 has taken over the old Barclays building. Such a friendly place. Great value drinks and lovely surrounding. Have visited twice this week and had a great time each time. Thanks to the friendly owner and staff !

Great night. Loved the live music tonight and great choice of music played after. Have been in for a coffee during the day and will be returning for sure. Good Luck Lux 37 x

Nice place, live music on the weekends, good selection of beers. However we seemingly made the mistake on ordering mojitos instead. Quite frankly the worst I ever had. New business though, so hiccups can happen. Will give it another chance at some point.

Fantastic little wine bar , love the neck oil 👍

This place looks a bit dark from the outside and more like a night time venue, but once inside it is welcoming and the seats by the window are lovely and bright. The service was prompt and friendly (thank you Esther!) and the homemade Victoria...

The coffee was quite poor, go to Dapa if you want good coffee ! Price was ok and service good, thank you Esther !

Me and my mum visited today to share a bottle of wine and check out this new bar in Formby. Inside is really nice, the wine was really nice and prices are very reasonable. The staff were so so friendly, very attentive and the manager...

Nice ambience and great staff. First time in today 8 July in the afternoon. Music right up my street. I don’t give 5 stars usually, but that’s just me. Will definitely be back.

I popped in a couple of times before the bar opened and one of the owners was very obliging with information regarding the opening date and the future plans First visit was last Friday and I was so happy to see it went well Choice of beers are extensive and the entertainment went down really well Lux 37 is a fantastic addition to the village I certainly will be using this bar on a regular basis Keep up the good work Big Jay (Formby)

Such a lovely place to go for a drink and a dance. Live music, Showgirls and cocktails 💃🏻 Will definitely be there every weekend 🤍

Popped in for a drink just to see what it was like, won’t be bothering to go back!
