Went in on a very cold December day and was pleased to see it wasn't busy. Was looking to use toilet but alas, there are none so its tie it in a knot or the lamp post on the corner! Ordering is straight forward enough from polite staff. We had 2 Christmas sandwiches which were nice enough. £12 with 2 drinks has sadly become the norm. Nothing to get excited about and certainly won't drag me back

I was charged £9 for a mediocre jacket potato. I still can’t quite believe it. I checked the board and thought the price for a jacket was overpriced (but still average in terms of city centre cafes). I saw the price of £1.50 for extra side salad. I was asked what salad I wanted and asked for some coleslaw (I was told at the end that I was charged for an extra filling for this!) The salad tasted of chemicals (like it hadn’t been washed). I would not go here unless you want to be robbed blind

We had seen a few reviews about using hands to pick up items when making sandwiches/salads etc, which put us off going. However, we noticed signs for iced coffee so thought we would go in and try a coffee. Upon going we noticed the same, but overheard a member of the team tell another customer that she would continue serving as she was "due a handwash". The customer asked the lady and she kindly explained that although gloves are not worn, handwashing is done between every few customers served as gloves can carry more germs than washing hands regularly, which actually makes sense. After this we actually observed this in action and decided to get a sandwich for lunch and we were not at all disappointed. The staff were lovely and very helpful. I got a chicken and bacon sandwich and my 2 lads got duck wraps which were all really tasty. I am so glad we decided to go for the iced coffee as we never would have known this! Will definitely be back when we are next in Liverpool. Thankyou for your brilliant service and lovely food :) x

The food is tasty but staff make up the sandwiches and salads won’t their hands, no gloves and no utensils which from a hygiene point of view isn’t acceptable in my view nowadays! Won’t be going back for this reason which is a shame.

Despite initially finding the sandwich selection process a bit confusing, three of the four family members placed our orders for meals and drinks to eat in at Philpotts in Liverpool. However, when my stepson couldn't figure out the process (which did seem quite involved), and was told by the counter staff they were out of a couple of things, he went across the road to get a sandwich from another shop. When he returned a few minutes later, the woman attending the cash register reacted in both an unprofessional and disrespectful manner towards us. Shooting angry looks while we ate, she then actually threw takeaway cutlery at my husband when he asked for some for my stepson's girlfriend's un-finished salad. My stepson asked if 'he had done the wrong thing' with getting a sandwich from over the road, and she told him he wasn't supposed to do that. He replied, 'Ah, unlucky', and we then left - upon which the woman came out of the shop after us to loudly tell us that we were never welcome again. This overreaction and kind of behavior is really bad, and shows a complete lack of respect for us as customers. The economic impact to Philpotts of my stepson getting his sandwich from elsewhere was nil, given it was otherwise almost empty and clearly they just didn't have what he wanted. But rather than just reflect on 75% of our group being paying customers, and that clearly we wanted to eat together, the way that the employee treated us was very disappointing. No customer should ever be made to feel so unwelcome and disrespected, and it's clear that this shop has a lot of work to do in terms of improving their customer service. In summary, I would not recommend Philpotts sandwich shop to anyone based on our experience. The service we received was extremely poor, and it's clear that this shop has a long way to go in terms of providing a welcoming and respectful environment for its customers.

A very pleasant sandwich shop that sells a variety of cold sandwich fillings and some hot food also available. Friendly girls working behind the counter. I ordered a Chicken and Bacon baguette, but the lady dished up Coronation Chicken instead. Maybe she didn’t hear me, but I was too shy to correct her. It tasted fine and we were fortunate to get one of the few tables to eat at. They also sold a variety of drinks I had never seen before and well worth a try. Whilst we were eating it seemed a very popular place for people to get their food. Located close to the waterfront and not far from the city centre.

Conveniently located but after giving them three chances there is just no going back for me. The service is deplorable! If the place is busy then you are in luck, you might, just might get served. if it's quiet then they will just ignore you and find some spoons to polish or some other menial task, anything other than see to a customer, you will be ignored no matter how long you stand at the counter! Now let's assume you do get served and some arrogant counter staff barks "yes, what" at you and you ask for a sandwich and processed to list your desired ingredients (on the board above their head by the way) you will get a look that I can only describe as pure hate, it's like you have just asked them to slice a bit of flesh off their pasty arm and toast it between two spaniels ears. As for the bread, I've tried two different varieties and both were stale, I thought I was just unlucky the first time. The 3rd time I was ignored so walked out. As for the staff on the till, OMG.. cheer up, you're taking cash not throwing puppies into a mixer! Absolutely hideous establishment. If you don't believe me go and see for yourselves, it's so bad it's actually quite amusing!

La comida aquí es razonablemente sabrosa, pero nos sorprendió ver que al preparar nuestros sándwiches, literalmente, todos los ingredientes que el personal les puso fueron tomados a mano. No se utilizaron cucharas ni tenedores incluso para las rodajas de pepino, tomates, lechuga y similares (precortados y listos en tazones). "Las manos humanas SIEMPRE tocan nuestra comida" podría ser su eslogan. ¡Insalubre!Además, estábamos sentados y no nos dieron cubiertos: no disponible; así que tuvimos que comer con nuestras manos. Como no había baño / baño, nos fuimos con "recolectores" grasientos.No vamos a volver

This was not a great experience sadly.I ordered a "salad" which was anything but that! It comprised of:- A small amount of salmon. Portion size was OK I suppose, but quite a bit of the salmon was hard and crispy in places. Had to scoop these bit out.- a very small portion of vegetables (a few peas, green beans and cucumber)- 3 small bits of potatoes - mostly comprised of pastaNormally I wouldnt mind, but I had paid 4.25 for that!!

Me encantan los Philpotts pero mi experiencia de hoy no fue agradable. Sentí que estaba interrumpiendo algo más importante para el personal cuando me atendieron. Cuando pedí mi ensalada con media pasta y ensalada conseguí un rollo de ojos del ahora infame servidor de pelo corto, de color rojo. Hacer la ensalada era claramente una tarea. Los croutons se perdieron al igual que los trozos de tocino y obtuve 3 tomates cherry. Cuando pedí que se agregaran los elementos que faltaban, me quedé con la mirada gacha. No entiendo por qué a los clientes se les hace sentir que son un dolor en la parte trasera del personal que se supone que se les paga por ayudar. No volveré!

It was busy I get that and I got in the wrong queue and apparently it was too much for the assistant to walk a few yards to pick up a baked potato and serve me (I wanted salad and she was standing by the salad so even if I had gone to hot food the assistant there would have had to walk to the salad part). Not only was it too much for her to contemplate but she was surly and I wasn't impressed. The hot food queue was quite big so I joined that but when it appeared that I wouldn't have time to get my food and eat before getting to an appointment, I went back to the sandwich queue (husband was being served still) and guess what still surly. There are plenty of other places to eat in Liverpool so won't return.

Won't be buying this again!

The food here is and always has been pretty decent, however the attitude of the staff when serving you is absolutely shocking. Not taking a single bit of care about how they make your sandwich, slopping the ingredients on the bread and then packing the bags so the sandwiches get squashed up. Asking for a further sandwich then gets you a stare as if you've asked for their first born child.Will be taking my business elsewhere as the whole service is just cr@p

I do believe that you get what you pay for - and Philpotts is an example of this. The sandwiches, soups and hot food they prepare is quite expensive; but it's worh it! The Hot Specials are amazing and well worth trying them out. The soups are equally lovely!!Drinks and crisps are way over priced. I understand that the food is premium quality and needs a higher price but crisps and coke can be bought much, much, cheaper in shops locally. Minor point, but worth noting

My friends and I went to Philpotts as a "treat" it was pay day and it's a bit of a walk from where we work but it has always had a great reputation, for good reason the food is good. I don't even know where to start here, the queueing system is ridiculous, I stood in one queue because it was directly in front of the crispy duck and I wanted a wrap, I was told it was the wrong queue and sent to the back of another one, as people piled up there was utter confusion, one queue for the noodle bar, another for the cold food, another for the duck?? it was bonkers, I then got to the front of the second queue only to be told I had to order the salad from one queue and get to the back of another queue for a duck wrap?? How hard can it honestly be to form a line, the lady with the short red hair who was making the salad for me was furious with my confusion and started ranting to her colleagues, however she forgot to notice everyone in the queue was confused! I would never go back to this place, we get one hours lunch in work, most of which was spent trying to figure out how to get served.

As a new business to this area I called in for a spot of breakfast at around 10am. Stood at the hot foot counter with 6 female members of staff clucking around the place. Completely ignored despite trying to make eye contact. 3 women in the kitchen area talking about their live life completely ignore me and the 3 further customers who queued behind me over the next 5 minutes (11 minute wait in all) Two shouts from the cashier of "hot counter" went unheeded. Left and crossed the square to Gourmet Coffee. Served straight away with a smile and 2 free pieces of toast with my coffee. I know where me and my team will be using from now on.

I felt like some scouse today though and the only place I could think that sells it is philpotts so I gave it ANOTHER chance. And low and behold, disappointed yet again. I got a watery soup which was claiming to be scouse. And not one single piece of meat. For 3.60 for a cup of soup, Im not impressed!

Used to be the market leader for a decent sandwich. Other nearby places have caught up and are cheaper.Still good though but hugely frustrating to have to queue twice each visit. I can understand queuing to order but then to have to do the same again to pay is just wrong. Surely the paying queue could be streamlined. Too many people ordering drinks etc. in this queue. Sort the paying side out and I will gladly return. If not then your decline will continue.

I have recently been working in an office in Liverpool near to Philpotts. My daughter suggested that I try them for lunch. I had tried another lunch time take away close by but thought I should follow my daughters suggestion. Not really impressed. On my first visit at about 1.15 p.m. I had difficulty in getting into the Exchange Flags shop as there was a large queue blocking the way in. I eventually forced my way in to the end of the queue, only to find I was in the pay queue, not the order queue. It was only another queue member who put me right. I then moved to another queue to order food. Again I ended up in the wrong queue. I didn't want hot noodles or carved food, only a filled roll. After 20 minutes, I gave up and went to another local lunch provider, suffering stress.I would add that I have been there again to have another try. The 3 tills we're only accepting cash. Ok for me, but not good in this day and age. The cream of vegetable soup was healthy but quite disgusting, with no or very little seasoning and certainly a mile away from creamed. Gently blended, yes.

Always get the same sandwich - Coronation chicken on brown bread, chutney instead of butter and all the salad. King of sandwiches!! Try one.

Gone are the days of a warm pint of bitter and a greasy sausage roll for lunch in Liverpool (although I enjoyed it in the day!). Philpotts is run by salt of the earth, no-nonsense Liverpool Ladies with a modern up market ambience where you can eat in or take away. There's something for everyone including wraps, hot and cold sandwiches, soup of the day and even a Wok station for Oriental noodle dishes. We had Scouse, a Liverpool stew with German origins (called Lobscaus over there and probably brought here by German sailors) and it was very tasty. With it came two huge bread rolls. Madam had a coffee, my Scouse was a large portion and the bill was less than a tenner. Expensive? I don't think so! Anyway, the staff banter was free but worth an extra fiver. This place is well located in a classy area behind Liverpool town hall but five minutes walk from the shopping centre. A credit to this fine City.

Lovely little place for grabbing a bite to eat although expensive... Unless you have the money and believe in quality over quantity. I was easily spending £10 a day in here for a quick breakfast to go and lunch... Fresh orange juice and homemade soups were lovely!

recently visited Liverpool for a business meeting and took a client to see sites. We visited the pierhead and decided to take lunch in exchange flags philpots said. I can honestly say it was a pleasurable experience the staff were excellent, service and staff was second to none. We were greeted by the manager who directed us to our table and took our order. The food was the best I've had and could compete with any top establishment. I would like to say thank you to everyone at Philpotts you made it a worth while trip and somewhere I'd definitely recommend and will be returning again on my next trip.

All ingredients are fresh and top quality, and the bread is freshly baked daily. It's more expensive than your average sandwich shop but it's worth paying extra. The home made daily soups are always amazing.

I used to go to Philpotts for lunchtime butties - and they were always fresh & tasty, however I went for breakfast on a Saturday morning & the food was practically inedible. I ordered bacon, sausage, black pudding & mushrooms - & was met with confused looks: "We only do those on toast." Fine. But the toast, when it came, was no longer bread but charcoal & I so could only eat a sliver of it. Similarly, the (tiny) sausage was charred and the bacon fatty. I think margarine was also used instead of butter (& I noticed it was in a dish with a toast-crumbed knife stuck atop it). For this and two cans of coke, I paid £5.75. Worst breakfast I've ever eaten at a place I used to really like :(

This was one of my regular lunch stops in Liverpool. The staff are great and the sandwiches are made your way if you like or you can pick up a ready made one. The soups, sweets, chips and drinks offered plenty of variety for something different every day.

Usually frequent this place at least twice a month for a bacon and egg toastie and they are always very tasty.the breakfast toasties are also very well priced in comparison to the over priced lunch sandwiches.Once in a while (Fridays usually) they get a bit flustered with a lot of people coming in so keep an eye on what they're preparing or your order will end up going to someone else!Overall breakfast items are very nice but the service could do with a little polishing.

The salad bowls in here are great, and very adaptable. However it can be a little pricey. Don't expect to pay less than £7 for a sandwich and crisps

Philpotts used to be fabulous.I recently moved office so on a grey, blustery, day I thought I would treat myself because it isn't cheap.I went back to my desk and the soup was cold and greasy; the pastrami and stilton mix sandwich had 2 tiny lumps of stilton; the pastrami was gristle, I had to spit it out when no-one was looking. It was truly horrible.The bread was stale.I was so disappointed and I don't mind paying for a treat for lunch but this was £7+! I don't have time to go and complain, who does in their lunch hour? I will never go back even though it is yards from my office.It has a counter to sit at and a salad bar I haven't tried, maybe it is better, but I won't take a chance.

Very good staff and service especially the apple pie but my friend is gluten free but no bread so no sandwiches for her and not one cake unlike what they had in Chester who had 3 different ones .

I'm generally a fan of costa coffee - the tiffin is usually great, the coffee is fine. However, on this occasion it just didn't work. Quite a limited choice of food on offer, and one of the least friendly customer teams I've come across. The toasted sandwich also tasted a bit stale frankly. There was also no decaf coffee on offer. The tiffin was lovely however. Not sure I'll visit this branch again soon - better off going to other places around the corner.

Popped in for a takeaway order sandwich and was not disappointed by the variety of choices available. Reaching later int he day there were still plenty of sandwich options to choose from including hot and cold options. Great little place really enjoyed the food!

I visited with my wife to get a sandwich for our lunch and decided to use the toilet, upon opening the door to the toilet I was greeted by excrement spread on the seat and basin and urine all over the floor. I reported this to the person who was on the floor and he stated that he knew the situation and would get to it when he was ready. Upon hearing this I went and told my wife and left , we could not eat there seeing this.
