The Coffee House in St. Helens

Loved this little bar for quite a while now however it's appeal seems to be dropping. This is a very versatile venue; all are welcome which is great; it's one of its assets however the barman is the most miserable in the whole town. Maybe this could be an attraction for the venue but, to us that come here regularly, he's hard work and hard to feel glad to have come in here rather than the other places on offer.

Really lovely caring staff. Nothing was too much trouble for them. An excellent breakfast which was both tasty and value for money. I would have no hesitation in recommending. Thank you, Paul

Had a lovely evening with the family. Atmosphere was great with the live music and all the food was fabulous. Service from the staff was faultless.

We went today, we were just passing. Had the nicest breakfast, very welcoming place and food was amazing! Would highly recommend giving it a try

Been here on many occasions and have to say it's actually my favourite bar in Newton, great selection of wine and 2 great draught beers. However, on entering recently, on an evening that wasn't busy we sat down on a table near the bar and were told it was table service only, which really, sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't. We sat waiting patiently and chatting and noticed that the bar staff had finished preparing other guests drinks and then proceeded to polish wine glasses whilst the waitresses decided to have a chat. I then had to leave my table to go to the bar and ask can we order drinks, "yes, no problem at all, what would you like?" Strange, but true.. My partner then went to use the toilets and then told a member of staff that there wasn't any toilet paper in the toilets, to which she was told "I'll let the cleaners know in the morning"??? Really??? We had the one drink then left, absolute shame, love this bar but unfortunately all good things come to an end. Good luck and for your sake and future please improve on your customer service asap...
