Marino Lounge in Wirral

Superb choice of delicious meals , tapas dishes and sausage butties ! It is dog friendly , has a great atmosphere, lovely views and a great bar.

Excellent food, drink and service. Very popular with the doggy fraternity!

Brilliant . Food is fantastic. Service good and unhurried. One of my favourite spots.

Lovely vibe. The salmon and poached eggs were excellent.

Relaxed atmosphere woth good service. Nothing too much trouble

Great food, prices, staff and atmosphere

Lovely place great food fully recommended the lounge breakfast

The food and drink was delicious. But was distilled by the strange atmosphere. There was a drunk man shouting at his dog and punching lightshades. He was letting his run around the place and shouting at it. I know this cause were sat right next to him. He let the dog off the lead and told him to go then proceeded shouting and whistling at the dog who wouldn't come back. The dog even ran behind the counter where they serve food and drinks. The staff looked at the guy and did/said nothing. So, I chose to get a drink first whilst I looked at the menu. I seen they had peanut butter syrup on the shelves. My partner went up for me asked for a hot chocolate with the peanut butter syrup. They said they didn't have any. He pointed at it and said, it's there. They looked and said yea we don't have it. So he just got me a hot chocolate. When he went to tell them where we were sat the staff said yea table 8 with an attitude. We guessed this is because there was only 2 of us on a 6 seat table. We were waiting for others to arrive but I guess they weren't to know, just uncalled for really. Anyway, come to choosing food. I wanted the breakfast muffin which came with eggs. My partner asked if they used red lion eggs. All staff looked confused what he was asking and even the chef didn't know what he asking. Which really shocks me as I used to be a chef myself and you don't know what produce your using? So he ordered pancakes instead. Which were delicious and would recommend to someone, just shocked of the price of them compared to a full breakfast. Just incase this is read by a manager or staff, red lion eggs are eggs with a red lion stamped on them to show they were produced in the UK. When someone ask this its usually because the person eatting them is pregnant and are only allowed to eat British eggs 😊 Sounds far fetched and I usually just avoid eatting them rather than asking but I really fancied the muffin. I'll stick to avoiding it next time 😅 Overall, the food was really nice. I would say a tad over priced which I wouldn't mind in a nice atmosphere. Just this time was ruined by the man shouting around the place and staff being awkward.

Had an excellent New Years Day brunch here. We were seated immediately and ordered at the bar. Really good atmosphere as it was very busy. I had the “lounge breakfast” and the Mrs had her “smashed avocado on toast” quick service and nice tasty food. What more can you ask for. The orange juice especially was delicious - freshly squeezed!!

Albeit the location, ambiance is good the food and beverage was poor. PLEASE,PLEASE change tea bags to a brand the makes a brew. Mine took 20 mins and water was tepid. My bacon sandwich on toast was barely toasted and bacon so stringy. Finally wife ordered double poached egg on a toasted. Muffin, it was not toasted and got one egg, when we. Asked where the other egg was she came back with some story about it was of some second venue and only had one egg. Shame to see food standards slipping driven by portion control and inferior/cheaper ingredients

I'd like to be more enthusiastic about the Marino Lounge ; myself and my girlfriend have been going there for years, because the cool, relaxed atmosphere and vibe of the place. But lack of value for money and samey , samey menue choices are now putting us off. During a visit December '24 my girlfriend was drinking large glasses of a white wine (Savingnon Blanc) - each of these was £10.50. That's a lot for wine in what us basically a bistro restaurant in New Brighton. Next - compare the sheer amount of food provided for the same cost at the nearby Turkish restaurant - think about eg. The paltry amount of a portion of fries at Marino , little more than a handful. Next - think about the frequency with which the menu at Marino is changed- there are occasional small changes but nothing significant and where are the fish options ? An odd ommission for a seaside restaurant. I know it's a lovely place to relax for an hour or two and refreshingly welcomes dogs as well as humans; its also very good in its provision of Vegan and Gluten Free options, but I fear that it's not providing value for money compared to other restaurants ( I exclude Orezzi from this as it has similar exorbitant drink prices and small portions). So regretfully we have cut down on our Marino lounge visits abd many people I've spoken to recently, have too.

Went with a group of friends prior to a concert. Nice atmosphere, friendly staff. Service was mixed - particularly food with two meals coming out significantly later than the other six.

The meal arrived at an unacceptable temperature, and the service staff appeared overwhelmed and understaffed.

Nice place after.a brazing walk along the prom , always busy but worth a short wait for a table

Lovely ambience and decor but very small meal portions. Burger buns very small, a small amount of fries which aren’t hand cut but probably from frozen and literally less than a tablespoon of coleslaw. The side of broccoli was expensive and consisted of 4 stems. The place is nice but the food is not only average but minimal.

Food is lovely and quite prompt even whilst busy. There is a nice view along New Brighton. The only issue is that when it is busy, it is very loud and people with hearing issues cannot hear the conversation at their table.

Wonderful evening delicious food . Very good atmosphere. Value for money . Would recommend 👌

Really nice style and ambience. Staff were great and really enjoyed the food. Also dog friendly! ☺️

Always pop in having walked along the Coastal Path with Eira (dog) for a drink and some lunch, found staff to be always welcoming, helpful, order using the app from the table, daily specials on offer too, and dog friendly which is a bonus, recommend if your in the area

Came for a family get together , really enjoyed the food and nice atmosphere , decor nice too ! Would come back again

Always nice to call in,always busy n that tells you all you need to know.

Went at tea time so wasn't busy, ordered drinks and the staff were friendly and accommodating..Food arrived promptly after we ordered,it was delicious,as we left it was starting to get busy,but still had a nice chilled Vibe.. Would Highly recommend..

Beautiful meal, great atmosphere, would go bk..... Worth a visit....

Lovely place. Great grub. Lovely setting looking over the Mersey.

It is a nice place. It is also pets friendly so we could have a nice meal with our dog. Staff was very friendly. We had to wait over 40 minutes for our food but they were really busy so maybe that was the reason. We would definitely recommend the place and we will be coming back

Lived this place .. took our dog too. Great tasting food . Lovely staff.

Ordered a breakfast muffin, waited about twenty minutes I complained they said they were busy and it wouldn’t be long, it was and when it arrived it was cold.

Came for my daughters birthday with some picky eaters and people with dietary needs. The menu for gluten free was great. Lots of choice. And the staff were very accommodating of our picky eaters altering orders to fit to what they wanted with no issue. They were also more than happy allow us to have a cake I had brought with me. They lit the candles and brought it over when we wanted it. Our waitress also gave us a little rendition of happy birthday. ❤️ Super service, super food even better staff

Normally, we visit around 3 times a week, always excellent. 5 stars.

It’s okay. Good service and your expected Diet Coke and juice box. We got two tapas platters (they weren’t shared) The sesame barbecue wings tasted like your mediocre frozen unflavoured unseasoned wings. The squid was extremely fishy. Not your average squid it was horrible. The steak we ordered as medium rare came very rare. We were compensated for a gluten free brownie which I’m guessing is so we don’t leave a bad review. I hope this is just a one off time as this place is recommended by friends.

Popped in for coffee and toast. It was very nice. Staff very pleasant and the place itself was clean and tidy. Saw a number of people having a full English breakfast and they looked delicious.

Arrived with my son for lunch, started to order our food and signal dropped 🤬 When it came back, re entered our order and paid. After we waited a while, I realised when the signal came back the app defaults to Martino Lounge in Morpeth - we spoke to a member of staff who joked this happens all the time and she called Morpeth to cancel order and arrange a refund. My son also emailed them giving order number and details and Vincent Robinson kindly replied confirming the refund will be sorted. Since then, after repeated requests, no response and I wonder how many others have been ripped off Currently raising this as a dispute with my credit card comply My advice, don’t us the app and order food from the bar As to the food, average at best but expensive. Would I return, never

Great place, great vibes and great staff

Nipped in to grab some some food while getting some emails sent out. Ordered using the qr code system which was simple and easy. Staff where courteous and efficient. Couldn't of asked for more for a reasonable priced meal with good service

Decent place on the waterfront. Nice atmosphere, reasonable prices and a good all day breakfast.

Food good, wish my dish was a big bigger, nicer inside than from the outside

Great place but can get very busy

Ordering the food through the app was quick and easy, it arrived quickly and was tasty. The staff were friendly and the atmosphere was very chilled out.

We’re regulars at Marino, often before a film at the Light. Have worked our way through most of the menu, tonight we tried the steak. Was absolutely lovely, paired beautifully with the Malbec, proper Friday treat. Staff as always are friendly and efficient, highly recommended.

Excellent meal. Great fast service.

Food was nice and served quickly. It could have been a little bit hotter though. I had a burger which was super tasty. The coleslaw on the side was only a table spoon, I expected it to be a proper salad. Fries were really nice. I can recommend this place if someone wants a quick bite to eat.

Nice place, love decor with a view on the sea! The food was good, served quite fast even though the place was busy.

Visited Marino Lounge last week because it is dog friendly. My son and I ordered the beyond meat burger, with onion ring and Halloumi fries to share. The burgers were tiny in the buns and they were dripping with sause, sooooo messy to eat, the fries came in a small tea cup sized bowl and the coleslaw was dry and tasteless. There were three halloumi fries and five onion rings, again very little taste. Just under £50 with two drinks! The dog left with a full belly! Won’t be going back!

The wife and I, plus small dog, had a Tuesday lunch here yesterday. It was busy but not packed. Both food and service were excellent. The steak was thick yet perfectly cooked, done just as I asked.

Busy place but nice atmosphere. Dog friendly, too. The food was great and didn't have to wait long. Prices are reasonable. Good choice of drinks , beers, etc, and soft drinks. Staff pleasant and helpful. Also they asked if we had any allergies.

Excellent food, great value for money. Friendly staff.

Never been before I went with family and the halloumi burger was amazing. The children's meals are fabulous also. Good size portions and for hummus, crudites and a meal with a side salad and a drink it was a really decent offering for a 2 year old.

Nice little bar/restaurant. Had to amend my food as I'm not a fan of the selection of sauces on offer, which made the burger a bit dry. But everyone else in my party really enjoyed their food.

Visited for lunch recently with my gluten intolerant nephew, he really approved of the gf buttermilk chicken and his brownie. Our tapas was lovely too. The two waitresses were fun , friendly and helpful. I regularly use the Brasco lounge in Liverpool and it’s nice to know New Brighton rivals it for service :)

Always a great time at Marino Lounge

This is my go to place to eat. Food is good and lots on the menu, service and atmos always on point. Fair price as well. Don't forget they will give you a separate gluten free and veggie menu if you ask.

Great food fast service, great breakfast. Will definitely use again

Not the cheapest bar I've visited but OK

Meal was a long time coming,people that came in after us got theirs first,did tell them it was only warm

Fabulous menu. Superb flat bread selection.

Nice food had a full breakfast was delicious

Lovely place to have a pint and lunch, and the staff are very nice and attentive . Good wheel chair access and easy to move around inside. The restaurant is very clean and well presented with a nice design that has you looking around at all the different things on the walls . Overall, I would definitely recommend it, and they serve a good pint 👍🏻 .

Beautiful decor, allows dogs, food is freshly made and very tasty, range of flavours. Keep going back as it's a lovely place.

Great atmosphere. Loved the huge choice of Gluten free meals too. Food arrived quickly and the staff were friendly. Highly recommended.

A quality place to eat and relax for whatever is going on.

Popped in for lunch whilst taking the kids and dogs for a walk in New Brighton and wow oh wow we will be returning again staff were brilliant it was so busy so unsurprisingly there was a little wait for food but staff were so apologetic and the food was worth the wait kids portions are bit and the food was delicious defo recommend calling in for food and dog friendly

Nice relaxed atmosphere, helpful friendly staff. Really nice food.

Food excellent, vast menu, friendly servers, outdoor seating is a great sun trap ☀️ dog friendly in and out

Lovely place to eat, no need to book, at least when we went you didn't. Dog friendly too.

Nice stylish place, in the seaside resort of New Brighton 👌

A lovely relaxing place to meet friends,enjoy great food served by fantastic staff! 😀

Maybe we caught you on a bad day but can't say we had a good experience at lunch. Obviously very busy and the only table we could get hadn't been cleared. Went to order food and drinks at the bar and asked if someone could clear the table for us. Plates and cutlery were moved but the teapots, cups and saucers weren't. We had to ask again about 15 mins later before they were removed. As for our lunch. The food was awful. We ordered fish finger sanwiches without lettuce and tartare sauce. We asked for the fish fingers to be put on bread and butter. The bread was stale and there was no butter on it. They did bring us butter when we asked for it. I won't be returning. If you can't get a fish finger butty right heaven help us if we ordered a fully cooked meal. Also very expensive at £35.40 for 3 fishfinger sandwiches and 3 small glasses of pop. Could have got far better value at Greggs.

Friends get together to celebrate milestone birthdays Food was delicious , I had the beetroot & feta flatbread . Staff were amazing & so friendly & attentive, lovely to be able to sit outside & take in the sunshine

Amazing food and amazing service

Food was delicious staff friendly and helpful great views and location definitely come back

Old University haunt, brought back lots of good memories, great service

Had a bottomless brunch for my fiancé's birthday, lovely atmosphere, great service, great value, will definitely be back

Visited after the cinema, been here before, the food ie tapas was amazing, great service, lovely staff,well done to all at the Marino lounge.

Been here before, I can just say your standards haven't dropped,the tapas we had was amazing, and nice size portions,and very friendly staff ,one of our favourite restaurants in New Brighton, keep up the great service and food

Lovely place to eat lunch or breakfast by the prom and my Shakshuka was lovely.

It's certainly a pleasure visiting and eating (the food is always great) and drinking (coffees and teas) in Marino Lounge and the staff are so totally pleasant

Potentially could be great. However. Fairy long wait for food, the waitress wasn't the happiest & the table was sticky. The food was ok. Had a cheeseburger with chips and coleslaw. The burger was tasty enough, but the chips were very greasy and the coleslaw portion was tiny! The atmosphere was pleasant. In summary, it was ok, but nothing to write home about.

I had a great evening here with my friends. It has a lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and a fantastic menu. They also had a variety of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options. The only thing was that a round of drinks was a little expensive. However, I will be back here again ☺️

Lovely food, polite staff plus dog friendly. Highly recommend.

The drinks were amazing and staff were very friendly would definitely recommend this place to my friend's

A great time had by all of us today ,food was sooooo good ,and the new style coffee cups are a smash hit with us , great staff, always smiling , we will be back very soon , thank you Marino lounge

Always let down here. Terrible staff service.

Chefs are bullies and cannot take responsibility for their errors. Basically made the server cry for asking for our food to be corrected. Had a dry cold half burger returned with cheese ‘added’ and not melted after pointing out it wasn’t on my £15 burger. They made my friend wait 40 mins for a dry burger after hers wasn’t made properly. Appalling idiot bullies. I would give no stars if I could.

The staff are lovely here and very helpful. The food is sometimes really good but sometimes not that good. I like sweet potato fries, but this time, they were quite burnt. Admittedly, I did not ask for a new portion, but It was so busy, it had taken a while to get the food (not the fdult of the staff). I don't really like the fact that you can't book in Marino Lounge (or in the other Lounge restaurants), because when you go, you don't really know if you're going to get in and if you're on foot, it can be very inconvenient. I'd rather know whether or not I am going to be able to eat there or not before I go there.

Great place to meet up and service and food is good too.

Love the breakfasts here they are so different. Always have a great time the vibe is lovely.

The tapas tray is lovely, as is avocado smash and the veggie breakfast. Staff are friendly and courteous, especially the older lady with the tattoos. Reasonably priced and the virgin mango colada is super refreshing on a warm day. 😋

Had a pleasant experience, food was nice and generous portions.

Good service, good food vast selection. Recommend

Great little place. Dog friendly 🐕! Food was pretty good for the price - same for the drinks! I Was served by a young blonde lady who didn't seem too thrilled to be there, but that's hospitality for you I guess lol!! Highly recommend.

Great choice of food on the menu and staff are very friendly

What a shame a big change in food quality. Disappointed for the first time. Claggy mayo, food not up to par in general and not the same atmosphere. I'm a regular I've truly noticed the change. A lot of new staff too so perhaps it's a holiday cover weekend? Anyway not up to standard today would not recommend.

Great food and service. Lovely atmosphere and dog friendly. I pretty much always go for the tapas but everything else I have tried has been good as well.

Staff all gathered behind the bar talking avoiding eye contact with paying customers. Took 15 minutes to get a menu. Food took quite a while to come out. But the desert took 40minutes to come out after we had finished mains and said we were ready for the pre-paid desert with the QR code on table. Clear lack of management, regarding efficiency with staff. Certainly no regards for the customer on this occasion. Food wasn't bad, but definitely had been victim of being sat on the side waiting for service.

Great place for a Full English Breakfast!

Very nice breakfast if a little pricey, full English £10, but have to say that the sausages were amazing. Price has not put us off, I suppose the old saying is true you only get what you pay for.

We went last night and I was very impressed. All staff that dealt with us where pleasant and polite. Food quality was perfect and very nicely presented and was spoiled for choice for what draught alcoholic drink I wanted ! We will definitely be back ! When a place is busy on a Wednesday night you know they are doing something right !

Vegetable burger was £14.50 in my opinion nothing special and more expensive than my partners meat version. Food was also Luke warm. Red house wine not the best with strange aftertaste. Won’t be going again any time soon. Definitely overpriced - walked away feeling ripped off.

We go there regularly. Staff attentive and always give you a smile. Light and airy with nice atmosphere and good food

Ordered the twisted chicken ciabatta chicken was nuked whereas my partners meal was stone cold said nothing but will not return - piss poor
