The Edinburgh Woollen Mills Tearoom in Sefton

Went to cafe in Edinburgh Woollen Mill Southport. Very disappointed. Would not visit again or recommend this cafe to anyone. It was as if the staff couldn't be bothered to make a proper sandwich or didn't know how. The advert outside the shop isn't what you receive inside. Give it a miss. Tesco meal deal better value

We went to the Swan but it was closed until 4:00pm. So, we ended up at The King’s Plaice! The best Fish & Chips we’ve ever had. Bright & sparkly clean! We won’t go anywhere else now!!!

Stumbled onto this tea room .... you don't expect one at an Edinburgh Woollen Mills Store. But head upstairs into a vintage tea room era. So as is this is a first time here then I will use my formula below to rate. FOOD: Lovely and they do a butty and soup deal and have exotic home made dishes of the day. And the coffee was excellent. PRICE: Very reasonable £3-4 for the soup and butty deal. SERVICE / STAFF: Super friendly and helpful ... nothing was too much trouble AMBIENCE: That vintage tea / coffee parlour vibe with original stuff all around and lots of wood. FACILITIES: The reason it drops that final star .... the bogs are done in and in a poor state and need ripping out and refurbishing.

I called here with my daughter monday afternoon. We both had a panini The presentation was awful the so called side salad was a limp lettuce and colslaw slapped on a plate !! My daughter doesnt like Mayonnaise. We were not asked if we both wanted colslaw ? We ordered 2 coffees 1 latte 1 capuchino . The service was really slow !plus i had to wait at the counter...... when i asked if i could go and wait at the table .The look of contempt from the waitress was very upsetting . After 10 minutes the coffee was served onto my tray . Got to my table , then my daughter asked which is yours ? She realised they had gvn us 2 latte??? Went back to the counter . Then when the food arrived .it was very disappointing 😞 a few pence short of £20 was a complete waste of my money !!! VERY DISSATISFIED CUSTOMER !!!

called for lunch not busy but covid safe. Had tuna mayo jacket potato with salad and zero Pepsi. Very good quality and excellent service. Toilets are available

Monday morning in Southport everywhere seemed closed, we were looking for breakfast, when we stumbled upon the Edinburgh woollen Mill tea rooms. We had a lovely cooked breakfast with a proper pot of tea, perfect just what we were looking for at a very reasonable price!

Food was lovely the soup was nice and tasty very pleasant staff strongly recommended merry Christmas

Disappointed. We were told to find the menus on the tables, thenwe didn't know whether to order or it was waitress service. My sandwich tasted funny. coffee was cold. Would not go back. Wasnot cheap considering the quality of the food!!

friend and i had the tea for two sandwiches was made with thick bread to much mayo in egg sandwiches, not enough cream and jam too go with the scones one small pot between the 2 of us , will not be going there again sorry

Visited mid week in Mid January at 1.45. Ordered baked potatoes with prawns. Lady behind counter looked at the time and told us there were no potatoes left (there were 5 on the counter behind her). She also told us they had no prawns. Eventually ordered soup, cheese and onion sandwiches and toasted bun with our drinks. Waited ages for the food and when it came the bun had been forgotten. Sandwiches thick, dry with little or no butter. Filling adequate. Soup thin and watery. Bun cold and unbuttered when it did arrive 5 minutes later. What a miserable cafe experience! No wonder only two tables were occupied. One to avoid.

This is a nice place to stop and have a cup of tea or coffee and have a slice of cake ,nice to relax in while shopping in Southport need to go before late afternoon as they get low on the cakes late on.

We have been here before and always head here as we have never been disappointed with the food. Also they are always friendly and very good with the children

Very disappointed. Went for lunchtime sandwich. Husband had cheese and onion toastie which he said was lovely. Plenty of cheese and good amount of onion. I however was very disappointed with my panini. I chose a Bacon,(which was underdone so the fat was still limp and fatty), Chicken, which was fatty sliced chicken (I expected chicken breast) and mozzarella cheese, which was orange and definitely not mozzarella, at £5.50 I expected more. The restaurant area wasn't particularly great either although clean. Toilets need a facelift too.

Having to keep a diminutive South Korean happy who was looking for a 100% cashmere scarf (apparently cheaper in the UK) and wanting to sample a traditional afternoon tea, we ventured in this direction to kill two birds with one stone. Unfortunately the scarves were only in tartan and made her look like a Bay City Rollers fan but the afternoon tea was very good. The cafe is situated over the shop and is very pleasant with a nice view over Lord Street. For around £15, we received two rounds of sandwiches (the prawns were excellent, the chicken a bit basic -- we should have gone for the cheese and pickle), two large scones with jam and clotted cream (brilliant but no good for the diet) and two cupcakes (too sugary for me but a great hit with South Korean tastes). Untraditionally, we enjoyed a large pot of very good filter coffee. Highly recommended!

Great tea room within edinburgh woollen mill Ordered afternoon tea for us both a bargain at £15 The ladies in the cafe were very obliging great conversation and made us laugh nothing was a bother and they were so nice throughout our visit The afternoon tea was excellent a round of sandwiches 2 lovely scones and 2 yummy cakes Overall a fantastic visit !

I wasn't aware they had cafe's in their shops, never seen one before, but decided to try this one for a snack. A very warm welcome from the staff. Only wanted a tea cake and coffee, they insisted l had fresh coffee which was later...

Good for mid-morning or afternoon coffee and cake! Scones are good. Up a flight of satires and a spotlessly clean cafe. Welcoming staff.

Really enjoyed visiting with friends. The young lady serving us was very helpful, offered my friend a vegan alternative to the set menu afternoon tea. Clean, well set out, good service (very clean ladies room too). Didn't rush us out, very pleasant afternoon. My only...

Only popped in for a cuppa but they had a tea and scone offer on-would be rude to refuse (my excuse). Glad we did great tasting cuppa and lovely scones. Peaceful surroundings. They have some super good offers on breakfast, lunch and tea for two...

Nice peaceful tea room, with reasonable prices, and nice food. The staff are excellent, and very helpful, the toilets are basic, but overall a nice place

Sunday morning breakfast, good quality bacon and sausage. Friendly service, clean and airy surroundings.

Wandering along Lord St, thinking about a spot of lunch and where to go (not planned this bit on TripAdvisor !) when we walk past an Edinburgh Woollen Mills. "I wonder if they have a cafe just like at home" says I. Well yes they...

Came across these tea rooms as we wandered along Lord Street. Nice but limited menu but well worth stopping for. .

Pleasant staff and good for soups and snacks. Not a wide range of choice but a good venue overlooking Lord Street.

Well situated on Lord Street. The food is passable, but what I dont like is the fact that you have to bring all condiments, etc to the table yourself - a lot of to-ing and fro--ing. There are two ladies serving , one could not...

Had a lovely bacon butty and coffee here for breakfast. This coffee shop has a number of comfortable sofas as well as lots of tables and chairs with a lovely view over the famous Southport Lord Street. Bacon was plentiful and the ladies behind the...

Called in for afternoon tea on Sunday staff were very helpful and friendly especially the welsh lady. Food was good value as you cannot get a cup of tea and a cake for under £5.00 these days so to get 2 teas 2 scones with...

Called here for coffee while walking round Southport and what a nice little place it was. Nice staff with great service and lovely cakes.

This is a great venue offering well cooked food at really reasonable prices. The staff are friendly and professional taking pride in their jobs. This is one not to be missed. Thank you team.

We are a local couple and this is the first time we have had a meal in their cafe. We deicide to have a late Breakfast as it is served until 11.30am on the special board . The food was beautifully cook, it consists of...

We stopped off for a cuppa during our walk around the shops. Its a nice little place with friendly staff and reasonable prices. The only downside is that the café is upstairs, so I struggled a bit with the stairs.

Decided to pop in for breakfast, we ordered two sausage rolls which was £4 and two slices of toast £1.20 The barns tasted like hot cross buns and sausage was of poor quality and the toast was value bread sever Luke warm and had to...

Had afternoon tea for tea for £12. Had two choices for sandwiches, these were very basic, we choose ham and chicken. The chicken was processed cubes of chicken. The scones were freshly baked and nice however came with very small pot of jam and the...

This is a pleasant tea room above the Edinburgh Woollen Mill. The coffee was excellent and I enjoyed my apple pie & cream. There is a good choice of cakes served by friendly staff. We will return!

Really comfy old fashioned tea room with friendly welcoming staff. Only drawback, it is on the first floor and access. Is difficult if you have problems walking. But it has a great view of Lord Street so you can sit and watch the world below...

As a regular visitor to Southport we walk down Lord Street unfortuneatley not what it was but thankfully Edinburgh mill tea room is still the same. Great for a rest with a coffee or tea in the spotless tea room with the very accomdating staff....

no doubt it is ok but as a disabled person I was unable to climb the stairs and the staff did not seem to concerned about the poor access

Good food (cherry scones yummy) good service and a very comfortable place to eat, well worth a visit.

Had afternoon tea here 2 for £10! Lovely. Freshly cut choice sandwiches, hot scone cream and jam and delightful cupcake each plus coffee. Served on cakes stand by a friendly lady. Seat by window watching world go by. Perfect. Shame wasn't a few tables downstairs...

Myself and a friend called in for afternoon tea - great value, well presented and very friendly. Big pot of tea, choice of sandwiches, scones with jam and cream and 2 lovely cupcakes all for £10!! Defiantly visit again next time we are in Southport!...

This is an attractive cafe on the first floor of a Edinburgh Woollen Mill shop. Just had a coffee but food and cakeslooked very good.

We popped in here after an awful breakfast at a local hotel. We opted for an afternoon tea, assorted sandwiches, two cupcakes and two scones with butter, jam and cream. All delivered on a lovely cake stand and with coffee included ( we upgraded for...

A good place to rest after an afternoon of shopping, especially in the EWM shop downstairs. Tea and scones very good.

I do not think I have ever had cooked English fried breakfast that was microwaved. Toast, baked beans and bacon were good. Scrambled eggs were a solid lump, tomatoes were just like eating a hot tomato with your salad and the sausage was disgusting....tough skin...

We were looking in the shop, so decided to try the café. On entering we noticed that we were the only people inside, it said secret menu so wondering if to secret. You can choose 6 items for a fixed price, so we choose 2...

This little tearoom over the Edinburgh wool shop always has nice food and coffee, whether you want a sandwich or to try their homemade soups you won't be disappointed. The staff are pleasant and the tearoom always looks clean and tidy.

Visited today and very disappointed with the place.More staff need to be employed in the cafe area.The existing staff, appeared to me to be working flat out, in very cramped, dangerous conditions before the cafe counter.The whole of the cafe area needs a major re-furbishment,as...

This was a lovely little cafe, went with friends and really enjoyed afternoon tea. Staff were excellent and service was prompt and courteous. I would definitely go there again when I am in the area.

Not our scene at all. The staff were friendly, Gloves need to be used when making sandwiches and the scones etc. need to be covered up with a glass dome. The place needs to be refurbished Not be going back

We were five ladies having afternoon Tea, it was fantastic value, everything was freshy made, staff were polite and professional, nothing was too much trouble, a true find we will be returning.....

Good seating particularly if you can get a window seat overlooking Lord Street. The food and Coffee is good.There is a loyalty scheme in operation which allows a free coffee after a number of visits

Great coffee and tea cakes when shopping on a saturday morning. Friendly staff and good value for money.

after we'd shopped in e.w.m we retired upstairs to have our elevenses.we had cappuchinos and a fruit scone, which were both tasty.we then bought a sandwich each to take back to our hotel room, these were a bit pricey but 'hey' we were on our...

Didn't have a meal but had a look round the golf Shop one of the best selection of golfing gear.Bought some at a very reasonable price.

Really friendly staff who welcomed us straight away. Managed to get the last two scones! The afternoon tea we ordered was quickly made and brought to us. It was well presented and the sandwiches (we had 3 choices) were well filled. We were offered a...

A nice enough little tea room, but there are so many better places to go in Southport. The staff mean well but they are not well trained.
