PDG's Eatery in St. Helens

Went for lunch with my wife and grandson. Excellent food and fabulous value for money. Staff couldn’t do enough for you. Would highly recommend the fish and chips and the beef in onion gravy in a giant Yorkshire pudding. Will be trying out the breakfast very soon 👍

Lovely cafe. Very clean and does the best breakfast in St. Helens. Service was great and and HP Brown sauce. Would definitely return.

Fantastic breakfast with the missus lovely sized portions with prices that don’t break the bank and the staff are fantastic

Thoroughly enjoyed my breakfast very polite staff made me feel comfortable and relaxed, hot and tasty food highly recommend

I got myself an omlette from here the other day with a few fillings; very generous portion, reasonably priced and very tasty. I used to order takeaways from here during Covid lockdown and was never disappointed. Been greeted by friendly staff every time apart from once.

First impressions: spotlessly clean. With a customer toilet - unusual in a cafe this size. Busy - lots of customers for takeaway breakfasts - good sign. Friendly service. Proper tea in a pot. Excellent bacon sandwich. My work takes me all over Merseyside and this is the best I've found yet. You can park outside too.

I ate here today, to receive food slammed on the table by the owner/cook, then my mum went to ask for something extra, and was accused of not paying for food by the staff. Which wasn’t true, my mum paid for food when we ordered at the counter. I said I’d pay for drinks once we were sat down, as I was holding my 6 month old daughter. Despite my mum trying to explain that she had paid, the staff was adamant she hadn’t, then the owner/cook, appeared out of the kitchen and got in my mums face, calling her a liar and raising his voice at her. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing and hearing, and the fact that there were other owners of this greasy spoon sat eating their lunch, and saying nothing about his actions is even more disgraceful. He verbally attacked her in front of several people, and the fact that my 6 month old daughter had to witness this when we just wanted a nice meal is ridiculous. When he was proven wrong, he didn’t apologise for the way he spoke to my mum, or for embarrassing her. I certainly wouldn’t recommend eating here. You’ll be spoken to like dirt and treated like you’re worthless. The owner/cook is a bully, and needs to think about his actions, he wouldn’t appreciate his mother being spoken to or treated the way he did to mine. It’s unacceptable. If you’re looking for a cafe to go to, go to toast on Dentons green lane, they’ll treat you with respect and the food is a lot nicer!

Had a really nice bacon sandwich. Very nice food, friendly staff. I’ll be going back soon! Can’t wait to what else is on the menu. Thanks again 🙂✌️

I've only had toasted sandwiches from here but they are so well made. Sausage and egg is always cooked to perfection. Have heard nothing but good things about the rest of the menu.

I've never had chance to eat here , though it's always busy when I've called in, but if you are having a buffet, and need a hotpot, look no further. I've had several from here over a period of 3 years, it's my go-to place for hot pot. Forget the well-known one that everybody usually thinks of first, PDG do a delicious hot pot, with a not too thick crust, plenty of meat and vegetables, and it's not stodgy or too peppery. In fact it tastes just like the best hotpot you've ever made yourself. For a family do I usually get the largest at £18, this serves 10 people, in fact the baker marks the portions out on the crust. Honestly, I can't praise them highly enough, Our Ladies meeting thoroughly enjoyed it.

The food here is lovely and priced so cheap. My mum has been here over 4 times and has enjoyed it and recommended it every time. I went with her in August and she was definitely not wrong!

Been here today food was very good always clean staff very friendly medium breakfast was more then enough coffee is a good one shame its closed on a sunday but everyone needs a day off love this place

After being recommended to go by a friend I now go here often, only criticism is they’re not open on Sundays! Well priced and good quality food. Friendly staff and always steady/busy which is obviously a good sign! Well worth a visit, and subsequently a review so we can get this place on the map.
