Philpotts in Liverpool

As is often the case when travelling, I discovered Phillpotts on Brunswick Street, Liverpool (close to Pier Head) by accident and ended up visiting on both days I spent in the area. Superb surroundings, a first class breakfast and warm Liverpudlian welcome await. Nice one!

It was next to the hotel where we stayed, so it was convenient to go down for breakfast. Everything was a plus: coffee, sandwich and service. On Fridays they have coffee and sandwich deals for under £6.

Decent breakfast deal (7 items + tea for 6.75). A range of other sarnis, soups & salads. Nice place with good price in a great location!

Absolute love this place . The atmosphere is good and the staff are so lovely . You came across this place when my hotel was charging horrible prices for breakfast Can't recommend this place enough

People very nice but it’s a shame that they charged £1 for toasting the sandwich and an extra £2 for avocado, are we serious? The sandwich was ok, service was cute, they offer a ginger biscuit with the cappuccino, anyways I wouldn’t eat there again, the salads don’t look good, the protein selection are like tasteless chicken and lot of stuff mixed with mayo or ham. Low quality food. Good staff.

Unpleasant experience. I ordered a make your own sandwich and was served by a blunt and judgy female member of staff. I asked if the sandwich could be toasted and she said yes, with her colleague stating they could toast it a bit just so it’s warm which I was happy with. After waiting a few minutes and paying for other things I went back to the same woman to inform her that i’d just like it slightly toasted which she acknowledged. The gentleman behind the till was lovely and had great customer service unlike the woman. I went to pick up my wrapped sandwich for takeaway and opened it during my lunch break at the office to find it all burnt. If you like the smell and taste of burnt food then I would recommend this place. For others, save your money and go somewhere else where they know how to make a decent sandwich.

£4.99 for a jacket potato with 2 small spoons of beans and a salad that consists of 6 half cherry tomatoes and a few cucumber

Staff are all lovely. Food is excellent quality. Service is great

I went there last week, I got a sandwich with tuna and after 3-4 hours I had food poisoning symptoms. It ruined my time in Liverpool, I vommited more than 10 times. Also, the lady was picking the ingredients with bare hands, and she wiped her hands on her shirt. I should have said something immediately and leave, but I didn't unfortunately

Lovely Caffe right next door to my hotel. Good food, freshly cooked and prepared and reasonably priced too.

Delicious sandwiches, nice service

Philpotts is an amazing little canteen style breakfast and lunch spot near the docks area of Liverpool One. It's on a side street and could easily be overlooked if you didn't know how amazing it is!! Philpotts do all kinds of breakfast foods as well as any combination of sandwiches, salads, wraps, baguettes or paninis you can think of. I got the chicken caesar salad and my Dad got a granary ham salad baguette. He said the ham was really tasty and there was loads of it! Along with our drinks and crisps as part of the meal deal, our lunch came to around £13 in total and we were both too full to finish everything! Definitely adding Philpotts to my list of top lunch spots in Liverpool!

Went in at lunchtime on a cold and windy day after a visit to the Pierhead. Looking for something hot we were tempted by the gourmet soup of the day - scouse! We were given a nice large bowl of a meaty stew with lots of delicious vegetables. We were also given a plate to help ourselves to some donut pieces at the till, which finished off our lunch nicely. Also on sale is a large choice of sandwiches and fresh salads made to order. A good place for lunch!

Great sandwiches and friendly staff. I will be back

Enjoyed each morning for breakfast on our holiday, all the staff was very welcoming and made a nice fuss of our 2 year old son, thank you

Nice cafe vibe and the muffin was delicious but the mocha was very diluted

Polite staff great food. Price was right on the nail.

Best sandwich shop in Liverpool

Good variety of hot and cold snacks served by friendly staff

Breakfast deal bacon on toast is amazing but the coffee is not so great

Denise is the most superb example of customer service, s i felt like i known her for a life time after 2 seconds of meeting her!!! amazing food such a nice place to sit in and eat thanks denise for making our breakfast amazing x

Great food atmosphere and staff all happy and bubbly so not only did we buy a drink went back for food.

Great service Great sandwiches at great prices

It was very good I would go again

Unclean The food here is reasonably tasty but we were amazed to see that in preparing our sandwiches quite literally every ingredient the staff put on them was grabbed by hand. No spoons or forks were used even for the cucumber slices, tomatoes, lettuce and the like (pre-cut and ready in bowls). ‘Human hands ALWAYS touch our food’ could be their slogan. Unhealthy! Also, we were sitting in and were given no cutlery: 'not available'; so we had to eat with our hands. Since there was no toilet/washroom we left with greasy ‘pickers’. We’re not coming back.

Very friendly staff and great selection of food and drink.

Comida Rica y mejor atención. Y muy barato!

Soup is exalent must try. Food is very good value for money. Staff helpful and plesant Must visit if your this end of Liverpool. Coffee ok.

Went into store with my colleague,i had purchased food elsewhere but did buy a bottle of coke,my colleague decided to eat his lunch at the table outside as it was virtually empty,i re entered the store to ask permission to eat my lunch as i was not intending to stay,the lady behind the counter granted me permission. As i was eating my lunch another lady came out and was very aggressive and rude and told me i should not be eating other peoples food on the premises to which i agree. My colleague was also shocked by the manner in which she told me,especially after seeking permission. This is a store i frequent often but that will be the last time and not only the colleague i was with,but the rest of my office will never use this store again

Food, coffee, service, ambience, cleanliness and price all spot on. Go to place if in Liverpool early on in the day. Well worth popping in.

Stopped in for a quick bite with a friend - it was a busy lunch time, and expected it to be a little rammed, but staff were quick whilst still being friendly. Decent selection of food, which should meet most dietary requirements - good choice of hot and cold, too, which is always nice to see during winter

Open very early in the morning. Great service and friendly staff. You know a place is good when the builders are in there ordering breakfast! 😂

Excellent brkfast,v well run,good food and reasonable price.

Rude customer service, burnt the toast... who burns toast? Sandwhich was mediocre at best, perhaps could have been better if I got what I actually ordered. Will probably avoid next time.

Not as good as the ones in birmingham

Excellent freshly made sandwich from a wide choice. Good tea. Nice place

Not the well oiled machine that it is in Birmingham but the food is just as good. Patron toilets is a must

Brilliant take a 93 old for the scouse every fortnight. Staff sound and very friendly and helpful

Food and coffee was decent, service was friendly

Top quality food, lovely tasty sandwiches, staff are so helpful and lovely. We eat here every time in Liverpool. A+++

Called in on the off chance as we were early for a meeting and grabbed a light breakfast & coffee. Lovely clean place with great service Thanks

Delicious sandwiches and super friendly staff.

Great sandwiches. Not as Cheap as others. Pastrami and stilton in chilli mayo is fantastic

Good food, bright atmosphere and friendly staff. What's not to like!

Was on jury Duty and are here every day for 2 weeks, food is so fresh
