Station Coffee House in Knowsley

We was looking forward to this has heard good reviews 👍 We went on Friday wasn't impressed breakfast wasn't the best tastless to be honest. Didn't feel very welcoming either 😕

Gorgeous food and great friendly service, first time here and had 2 breakfasts. Highly recommended!!!

Had the Sunday roast. Was excellent. Starters were served fast and they were delicious. The main was a sharing style and portions were very generous. The pork was cooked to perfection. The dessert was lovely too but was very full from the food had previously. All in all an exquisite meal and I will be back this week to try a breakfast Thanks so much for having us

Love this place, usually arrive between 1:30/1:45 after I finish work, a bit disappointed today though, arrived at 1:35 to be told food was finished as they close at 3pm now. Ok finish food at 2pm maybe but 1:35 really, what is being served in the time leading up to 3pm? **Thanks for your reply. I was just told you had stopped serving food because you close at 3pm, no mention of the chef having to leave early so I'm glad I will still be able to eat here as I would really have missed you lovey food 😊**

Excellent food. Innovative menu. Very pleasant staff. Interesting building. A great little cafe! Visiting from USA. Had read about this place so had to try it - EXCELLENT!

Went today on 21/09/24 and had a wonderful breakfast. Could tell the staff were short, but this did not disrupt the atmosphere, service, smiles on the staff or the incredible quality of the food. Beautiful breakfast thank you

10 out 10 ! Absolutely fab! Had station breakfast, every item was perfect and such good quality.

The English breakfast was warm and delicious, but the sausages were a little undercooked. Perhaps because it was the first customer, some parts weren't cleaned yet, but the atmosphere was nice.

Diabolical, asked for crispy bacon and sausage on toast. Was served what looked to be boiled bacon and a single warmed up sausage on 2 pieces of sour dough… for the price being paid this is shocking and the quality of food was appalling.

Absolutely stunning in every way... cute rustic design, locally sourced high quality ingredients, amazing baked goods, very friendly staff and a chef that has more passion and care for food preparation than I have ever experienced. On top of all of the above the price of the food is unbelievably fair that creates a place that has an unbeatable value. If you have the opportunity to go here, do not miss your chance... I guarantee you will want to go back and will be telling everyone you know that they need to go here too. I'm so happy I live just around the corner and I have been here atleast once a week since I found this gem.

Little gem of a cafe. Lovely breakfast and the soda bread toast is really tasty. Set in the railway station, has an outside seated area of the off chance we have a summer. Good service.

Nice outside on a warm day. Only 4 seats inside.

I have seen this place decline. Once a firm favourite because the menu was so different and the food was lovely. Just recently, (last 6 months) I've noticed that it's grubby. The stairs are always full of dirt, the floors need a good scrub, the pallet style tables allow food down the gaps, which stay there for ages, the chairs are wobbly and unstable, the staff bar one are miserable, especially the young blonde girl with big lashes. One day recently, we were one of 2 tables busy and every other table was piled with dirty dishes. When they clear tables, they don't always wipe them and I can't tell you how many times there's been food on the floor under a 'cleaned' table. I feel like an inconvenience now and I don't feel happy with the standard of cleanliness. This is a shame as the food is lovely (odd issues here and there, but nothing to stop me going back) but there's more to going for food than the standard of the food. They are serving amazingly inventive dishes in dirty surroundings, with a crap speaker playing crap music, no atmosphere and staff who can't even crack a smile. Honestly you can do better, because you have in the past. Your standards have slipped dramatically and it's showing big time. I'd love to see you acknowledge this rather than get defensive. This is constructive feedback on a venue which could be outstanding. I won't be back unless the place gets a good scrub, they fix their leaky loo, the staff slap a smile on their face and you fix your crap furniture.

Our family celebrated my wife's birthday here. We had excellent food and service. Thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Thank you.

This cafe has a fantastic atmosphere and a great range of food, drinks, and coffee. The staff are fantastic and have a great sense of humour and are very welcoming. The staff are extremely catering and even when they are extremely busy the staff are working beyond hard to still deliver an exceptional service.

I’ve been to The Coffee House at Prescot Station for breakfast several times and never had an issue. But today this wasn’t the case, the food wasn’t up to its usual standard, the sausages were dry and the bacon over cooked. When ordering the food I had asked for brown sauce, when the girl brought the food upstairs to the table she acknowledged that she had forgotten the sauce and that she would be right back up with it. After 10 minutes she came back up with some drinks for the table behind me. I asked her was she bringing the sauce? She. Shouted at me “I’ve busy you know” what a disgraceful attitude. She then sent a lad up with the sauce who slammed it onto the table and didn’t say a word. This will be the last time I go to this place for poorly cooked food and terrible customer service.

Friendly staff and helpful. There was a wheelchair user / reduced mobility table available, which was great as I have some mobility issues. Easy access toilet, too. The step from the pavement down was a bit high. Coffee and brownie were good. I like it that this place is nearby and not too busy in the week.

I regularly go for a brunch here & you cannot fault the tasty reasonably priced options, but their monthly themed nights are on another level. Saturday was Indian themed and was absolutely delicious and amazing value at £45 per person. I cannot recommend more highly, join their Facebook group for the details of the latest themed night to go and enjoy!

Stunning food, nice rustic setting, I can't rate this place any more highly, and wholeheartedly recommend it. I can't wait for the longer opening hours and bistro nights ! Update: Saturday nights now bring us global themed food nights, with spectacular menus based on a locale, such as Texas themed, British menu (through the ages, from paleolithic to the Victorian era), and Smoke and Fire (with BBQ classics). We've done Valentine's meals, Christmas dinner, family roasts, you really can't go wrong ! If you missed the South Carolina night, you missed a real feast ! Update November 2023: Still amazing Update March 2024: Still winning multiple awards, what are you waiting for ? Update May 2024: Three (?) special themed nights since my last update, food still amazing, but sometimes there's just too much food - previous two evenings were perfect, tonight's was just huge - 8 courses, and I skipped the last three completely (although I did help my wife with a couple of earlier courses).

Excellent food. We had the steak sandwich and the club sandwich and both were unbelievable! 100% Recommend!!

Lovely food and great service. Would highly recommend and will definitely visit again.

Absolutely gorgeous every time! Come here often for breakfast but today was so good I thought id take a pic and leave a review! I had the whipped feta on sourdough 😍 so good! Fresh, quality ingredients and good value! I paid approx £10 for an outstanding meal and a pot of tea! ☕️

My husband and I attended for a Thailand tasting evening. It entailed of 6 courses including pudding. The food was phenomenal. The waiting on staff were amazing. Very hard working. Friendly and couldn't do enough. It was our first time. It won't be our last. Couldn't fault it. They do these evenings about every 2 weeks. All the tables were full. We met some lovely people. Great atmosphere. What an experience. Thank you.

Best place for breakfast or lunch and afternoon tea, Great local place, friendly, lovely people.

All good. Great service. Lovely veggie breakfast. The staff are really nice too!

Its alright uf you wanna pay a 10ner for 1 full english only to have them take off half the things because maybe you dont like them only to have the food come to your table on a small rectangle plate, just for u to tale 1 bite and regret coming here. baccon was burnt and chewy, the one discusting sausage that looked like an orgres package and an egg that still had clear runny coating over the yolk, altleast they offered an alternative to the sour dough bread and i was able to get some normal toast, the place was nice inside 10/10 for presentation 1/10 for the food ps leek sausage???

This is the best brunch I ever had! l enjoyed every piece of it!Their staff Sophie and Mark are chatty and friendly and l'll definitely recommend this place to my friends and family.Thank you Ozy to taking me there ! It should be more than five star's from my point of view.

Lovely staff, bacon and black pudding on toast 😋

Ok too eat here food ok, I asked for a small breakfast, said he will only cook it for children, I am only supposed to eat little and often, bit disappointed in that response. My wife enjoyed her food

If you are looking for a hipstery place, search no more. It's OK just a bit over priced. Not very kids friendly but good for couples.

Great breakfast,would go more often but parking is a bit hit and miss

This is always a lovely treat. No matter what you order it’s fantastic. Staff are great. Happy to make changes if requested. Their sausage rolls are the best I’ve ever had.

The food + the quirky location were great - I would have given 4-5 stars for them, however the atmosphere was awful - I feel they need a good extractor fan - the air appeared to be a little smoky on entering, and there was a smell of cooking fat. We sat upstairs, but when we left we smelt like we had been sat next to a fryer, our clothes + hair had obviously absorbed the smell. I hope this was a one off, as it did significantly colour the experience + reduce the star rating.

Lovely little lunch with my daughter. Didn't know this place was here but glad we came. Lovely coffee and good food, I can recommend the cappuccino and the ham hock bennie. My daughter's food look good and went down a treat. Special mention for the sausage rolls which are worth the journey themselves, couldn't resist trying one and it was fab. We were the only people in at one point but soon filled up a bit. Good to support a local restaurant and will be back again soon 👍

Lovely breakfast with fresh produce. Staff friendly nothing too much trouble. Will defo return. Keeping my eyes peeled for this years supper clubs

I had my first visit here last week and the food, location and service was 100 percent perfect. Quality premium produce at an excellent price. Seating upstairs with some seating downstairs.

Just had the nicest Full English breakfast that I have ever had, it's a hidden gem.

Another amazing pizza lunch! Takeaway but still great at home, the beef pizza and chips are unreal… see you next Friday that I am off work

Friendly welcome and excellent service with lovely coffee and food - had very tasty bacon and sausage on toast. A great menu and selection of cakes and nothing was too much trouble. It’s a place that sees a lot of regulars and it’s easy to see why - excellent value and service to match.

What a find ,had a fantastic breakfast, if your in the area don't miss out

Absolutely superb full English breakfast. Proper ingredients served up with a smile 👍

Lovely place, highly recommend it. Lovely staff looking forward to my next visit.

Lovely food, I would recommend the English breakfast - however the ricotta pancakes were absolutely tiny considering their price which was very disappointing. The service is very poor - no fault of the waiting staff as the cafe is clearly understaffed. The system of having to order at the till is a bit of a faff.

Don't know why I've missed this place for so long! Went for lunch and chose chorizo and black pudding hash plus cheese and ham toastie on sourdough which were speedily served and well presented. We enjoyed both and hope to return in the summer to sit out in the garden when the weather is warmer. I'm very curious about the recent "African Evening" so I'm looking to sign up for notifications so I don't miss the next event.

Nice little cafe at Prescot train station. Open until 3pm for food orders and 4pm for just cake and coffee. Coffee is hot and the cake, a plumb crumble, is fresh. Perfect for a mid afternoon snack! Service is friendly and it's cosy inside. We sat outside as the tables were messy inside and its not raining.

We went too the north African night and I have too say we had an amazing evening. Staff couldn't do enough for you and food was absolutely incredible... looking forward too the next one! big thanks too you all.. I can appreciate a lot of work and effort went into that event..and we all appreciated it. cheers Oz

Best breakfast i ve had out for a long time we ll be back 😋😋

It's only small , but the food is mighty .. love the place

Been hearing good things about this little place so decided to try and I'm glad I did. Ordered the station breakfast and it was a top quality breakfast. Every item was cooked perfect and tasted amazing. The eggs Benedict with ham hock was also top class . The ham wasn't salty and flaked apart tender. And the coffee was freshly ground and tasted so fresh and tasty . The hot chocolate was not too sweet and didn't taste artificial just super creamy and comfy. The caramel and apple cake was amazing also. Try this place out and support you local business as worth every penny. Ps took a sausage roll for after and it was the best one around, if you remember rays the baker sausage rolls well very similar but bigger and meatier and not as salty . Boss with brown sauce.

Emailed enquiry for Sunday lunch table as per their instructions on 04.10.23.. still no response a week later. Disappointing

Good food and a very interesting place. You can eat while the trains go by.

These guys know how to do flavour! Their breakfast choices are superb and each time, the taste is on another level.

What a great breakfast with really good quality meat. The decor is great and only thing that let it down was lack of friendliness from the staff. I would still go back as it was extremely busy so maybe staff were just under pressure.

Amazing place, amazing service and the best part is the fantastic food and coffee :) I go often and recommend, A,+++++

I've lived very near to here for many years but never been in. My niece recommended it. So I called in for a rare full English breakfast treat. Lovely and well decorated inside, staff very friendly. Tea pot was filled with loose leaf tea. Breakfast was just the right size and very nice. The only suggestion I'd make, is make the menus more accessible online - I struggled to find and read one.

This was my first time here it's nice I frond it a pit cramped for me personally .food was very nice cooked well I would go again

I had a breakfast it was excellent I would recommend it service was good

Lovely place to start your day! Amazing coffee and even better food! Very friendly owners and really enjoyable environment! Free parking is also a lovely bonus 🙂

Flat white on point, Barrista style 👌

Not sure what all the reviews are about, not the best breakfast I’ve had, especially for the price.

One of the best breakfasts I had in the NW. Very good coffee too! The service and atmosphere the same. The only disadvantage - it is over half an hour drive for me to get there 🤣

Great place, great food and service. Menu is different, and the ingredients are locally sourced and very fresh.

Such a gem of a restaurant serving delicious food. We generally go for brunch or a supper club evening. Recently went early evening (pre theatre) for tapas. Three amazing dishes for £15, so tasty and well presented. I also loved that one dish came at a time so no cold tapas. Will be back to try more of the dishes soon! Delicious glass of red wine and fantastic service.

Great place, love it. Great food, lovely staff and handy if you like to watch the trains passing by

One lady (young) full of bad attitude One lady nice and helpful. Food was ok. Coffee was good. Apple juice we received was off. Went to ask to change and the (young) lady was full of attitude. She refused to accept the apple juice was off. She then proceeded to test the orange juice and inform me it was good. I told her she was tasting the wrong juice and she proceeded to stare at me. I repeated myself. When I asked her if she was listening - she aggressively informed me she would not be spoken to like that. The other lady had to calm her down and intervene. She gave me a different apple juice which was fine. So.. service isn't great. Food wise - My fried egg were over cooked but poached eggs were done well. Portions were small. But prices are fair. Coffee was good. Pity the poor service.

OMG! If you haven't tried this place get down there now and try their amazing food, this is the ploughman's platter which was gorgeous. The summer menu is out now and everything on it sound delicious, can't wait to go back and try it all. 😋 The staff a lovely and helpful, and the outside eating area is looking good x

Still can't find a better breakfast 👍

Chorizo hash and eggs Royale both lovely

Breakfast amazing staff really lovely

Very lovely coffee house and the staff were friendly.

From the minute you walk in Nice freindly welcome. Menu plenty choice, very original, nicely price, food decent portion and very tasty. Enjoyed as they said in Welsh: bon appetit.

Heard Great things about this place, I wasn't disappointed! Food took a while to arrive but was well worth it, nice atmosphere and lovely inside! Portiins were decent size too. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back.

Menu was dirty with a stain on, very off putting. Tiny glass of orange juice very overpriced. Food was ok but wait took a long time. Expensive and hash brown should be included as standard in a full English. Probably won’t come back.

Lovely half term lunch today to sample the new menu additions. Usual warm, friendly welcome + son rated the beef shawarma as ‘one of the nicest things he’s eaten’. Chef was accommodating with ‘tailoring’ to my son’s taste + made the extra effort to make sure the meal was still delicious without some of the accompaniments.

Must of been a bad day after reading good reviews, firstly got a latte basically a cup of milk. We got hash browns and they was darker than my latte (must of forgot about them). no options for still drinks and no sauces on table? limited menu option and overall wouldnt go again. bad experience 😩

Lovely place for a light lunch or even just a coffee

Great food, though confusion over eggs in our breakfast, and then being charged for them, when we shouldn't have due to missing item replacement. Only realised once we had left,

Went downhill in here leather face behind the counter speaks to customers awful food is no better either

Hidden gem that we’re so lucky to live close to. Lovely little bistro cafe - breakfasts are fab and lunches delicious. And their sausage rolls 😍. Staff welcoming + always accommodating. We had our first Xmas dinner out this year at SH + wow!

Great selection of food as always 👌.

Arrived at opening time for breakfast to be told to wait outside. Eventually reluctantly let in but told had to clear the table in an hour. Red/brown sauce 50p each. No mustard. Breakfast not as good as I’ve had here before fried eggs were hard. Staff prepping tables around us. I get they obviously had something else on but we had no explanation or apology, felt very unwelcome. Hmmmm I’ve had mixed service at this place before. The food is better than your typical greasy spoon breakfast but the welcome not very warm.

What a lovely surprise and a little gem! Fantastic and creative menu. Great staff. Lovely place. Well done. Prescot has quality at last 🤩

The breakfast had all the component parts, however, the plate was a little on the small size making it difficult to access some of the elemnets!. Egg yoke was not runny and the tea was on the weak side. The bacon and sausage were very tasty but the toast was quite thick. Breakfast, tea and sauces £10.

Food ws amazing deffo be returning and the soup wow 😋😋

I have been many times for brunch and love the quality of the food, the interesting dishes, great value for money and the friendly service. I went for the first time to one of the theme evenings recently, my goodness it was excellent! Six courses for £40 per person was fantastic value for money. Each course was beautifully presented and was so tasty. The atmosphere was great and the family really looked after us. The Mongolian theme was unusual and we loved trying all the dishes. Big portions though for a 6 course meal, we certainly couldn’t manage all the steak for the main course despite it being so tender and tasty. Looking forward to going on future theme nights, thanks to all for going above and beyond! The work that had gone into researching and cooking the meal was phenomenal.

Lovely cute little cafe, went for the first time today with my sister. Will definitely return, the food was absolutely gorgeous, friendly staff and really quick service. Favourite place for breakfast/brunch in prescot!

Fabulous breakfast this morning, freshly cooked and piping hot .. Lovely staff , very friendly and the atmosphere is great. A hidden gem and one we will now always use. Thank you from Kim and Clint

Love this place 😀 Food Lovely, massive portions. Great menu with loads of choice! Fab and quick service, staff are friendly without being too over top. Cute place, homely, been a few times defo recommend!!

Our group met for Brunch and we were very happy with the quality of the food. The staff were very friendly. It's too easy to miss this place but I would recommend popping in. Be aware that most seating is up steep stairs and the toilet downstairs.

Lovely little rustic cafe . Very pleasant staff.

Went to supper club evening at Station House, incredible Portuguese themed menu. Every single course was a gem, the cauliflower dish was another level. I had the veggie menu, whilst my husband had the main, we both loved our food. This was all accompanied with haunting Fado music which transported me back to my time living in Portugal. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, nothing was too much trouble. We will definitely be back for breakfast/lunch soon and can’t wait for the next themed evening.

Fantastic breakfast ! Super tasty sausages , bacon, avocado and ham ! Lovely friendly staff ! Lots and lots to choose from ! Highly recommend !

Went to this cafe last Friday with friends and family, walked in and went to go upstairs, 1 of the staff walked past all of us and never spoke to us,, as welcome , , so we looked at the menu and went down stairs to order,,we then again got ignored by one of the same staff, and then he walked out and left us just standing there, he was so rude that we all walked out, he only then came out and started to shout that he was bizzie doing things, that was no excuse to ignore us, I no the food is good but the staff need to learn people skills, 😡😡

Consistently good. Always a friendly welcome and great service. Food is exceptional, full of flavour and totally different to other offers locally. You must have a side of chips!

The best coffee house for food in Prescot. Always freshly prepared and their menu is amazing. Staff very friendly and nothing is too much trouble.

Last week we made a telephone booking for an afternoon tea. On arriving at the cafe this afternoon we were initially told there was no booking! Then rechecking the diary found the reservation. Apologies given and advised that there would be a wait while it was prepared. This wasn’t too much of a problem time wise (due to train cancellations) our return train was going to be after 4pm. We were brought two cups of tea ( cup of water with tea bag) rather than the pot of tea. When the hamper arrived it had a very nice selection of sandwiches and savouries plus two pots of relish. The star item was the Scotch Egg. One of the nicest I have tasted. We were offered another drink, but we asked if we could have a coffee later when we were ready for the scones and jam. Unfortunately the cream was from a can and had turned to liquid by the time we came to use it. The server was very pleasant and attentive. Back at home I looked up the description for the afternoon tea, it stated a pot of tea or coffee. Subsequently we were charged additionally for both the cups of tea and coffee.

Gorgeous little place. The service was lovely, the food was AMAZING! See pics!! The only bad thing was can’t serve alcohol before 11am… but we got over it!! :)

A brilliant way to spend time waiting for the train.

Had breakfast here today. Lovely building really liked the decor and the outside area is lovely and it would be great sitting out there in the sunshine. Nice friendly staff, they keep one of the two tables downstairs reserved for anyone with mobility problems which...
