The Refreshment Rooms in Wirral

Staff are lovely and the food is DELICIOUS!!!! Being vegan I am always a bit unsure about new places to eat, but this place does fantastic vegan food. I will definitely be going again. The meals are big and the price is good too. Many thanks to all who work there.

My first visit… warm welcome, friendly staff Well…. What can I say about the food? All I can say is that they serve the best fish n chips that I’ve ever had! It was amazing and so excellently presented, tasty, hot and delicious! Well done to you all for making my first visit an experience that I will keep telling people about, over and over again! Absolutely brilliant!!!!!

Loved the salmon dish nice building reminds you of the suroundings

Just had the lamb again. Absolutely delicious. Ribs are also finger licking good. You will have to book for busy times like Sundays.!

First time here. From arrival the staff were friendly, service was timely and food fantastic. Will be back.

My friend and I visited the refreshments rooms for lunch while working locally. It was a sunny November's day. The refreshments rooms are located in a very interesting area on the banks of the river Mersey l. It was my first visit. Upon entering, a young lady at reception was very welcoming and directed us to a nice table. The interior decor is very interesting, with lots of pictures on the walls. The dining area is well appointed, too. Regarding the menu and food, there's a good selection of dishes available to suit most people. We ordered the scouse. It was delicious 😋 and priced reasonably. Overall, we really enjoyed our impromptu visit to this eatery. It's well worth a visit, and the areas are interesting to explore, too. I'll definitely be back 👌🏿

Fab place but could do with a bit of a face lift now.

Absolutely love this place. Can not fault the service & the food is bang on every time. I would highly recommend the cola ribs and the sticky toffee pudding 😋😋

Myself and my daughter visited this place last night we’re staying at a hotel a few miles away. Walked in and it was very busy but we were seated then served drinks and orders took almost straight away. The staff are exceptional! All so friendly and polite. The food 🤩 wow! We both had the roast dinner's lots on the plate so very tasty. Had to share dessert as we were both quite full. The biscoff brownie yum 😋. We came from Manchester and my daughter even said it’d be worth driving back here just for the food at this place. Fantastic!

This has to be easily one of the best places on the wirral for food, think pub grub done extremely well. The pot roast lamb shoulder was unbelievable and highly recommend. They have plenty of mid week offers and a over 60s menu. Sunday lunch is also one of the best but be sure to book as I know it gets really busy. Staff are friendly and attentive and the decor is lovely.

Visited Tuesday 29th Oct for a late lunch. A good selection of menus on offer, ie standard full price, lite bites, over 60’s and home comforts which is served from 3pm on Tuesdays. Basically the same food offered on the standard full price, but for the others smaller portion sizes. My friend and I thoroughly enjoyed our choices from the over 60’s menu. So 3 courses each of beautifully cooked food, with wine and coffees £60.33. Due to being a coeliac, I also require gluten free food and can safely say it’s easy for me to eat here, without becoming ill. The staff were brilliant! attentive and polite as usual. Thank you to all staff at the Refreshment Rooms and see you again soon 😊 Suzanne

Great place! The food is homely, perfectly portioned, and delicious. The staff are friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back! 👌🏻

Good meals, as always, at a decent price.

We went as a family group of 6. We were looked after well and the food was enjoyed by everyone.

A great eatery in a scenic location. The Sunday lunch was to die for. Thank you .

New place to visit on the Wirral , good food , friendly staff with good family company. Another family visit while in the Wirral. Good food , friendly staff , enjoyable meal.

Been here a few times for lunch and knew the food and service was good. Fancied the roast dinner for a while and finally got to try it today. This is my first 10/10 roast dinner review. We like to cook at home so are hard to please with certain things but the dinner here was honestly exceptional, only slight issue was not enough gravy but asked for more and it was brought straight away and not charged for like some places. We both tried the 3 meats, you get LOADS of roasties and they are decent size and crispy like your Nan made them. The veg was all plentiful, fresh and beautifully cooked and the cauli cheese was cooked perfectly. Honestly no complaints, you defo don’t need a starter as the portions are decent and you can save space for one of the lovely puddings. I had baileys creme brule and he had the cheese cake and both were gorgeous. We parked up and walked to port sinking river park along the river pathway before we ate which was a lovely and quiet little ramble to work up the appetite! Service excellent, mixture of younger staff and older guard helping the place to run smoothly. Thanks to the team for a fab meal!

Family meal for 21 everything was exceptional!

Absolutely fabulous place! Great food and lovely atmosphere. Staff friendly abd very efficient. See you soon.

We always have the over 60s three courses. Smaller portions but with three course always come out feeling full. Quite reasonable price for two of us. Food can't be faulted, never had a bad meal. All freshly cooked and very tastey. Good service and friendly staff. Nice atmosphere. Cannot fault this place.

First visit to Refreshment rooms after hearing goods things about their Sunday roast. It did not disappoint and was excellent. Staff very good as well. Well done everyone.

What's not to like we were a party of 15 every meal came out together an hot food is fab an the service off the 2 young men was exceptional 👌 really looked after us wud recommend this place.

Amazing, food, staff and prices. Love this place

Great food lovely friendly staff.

Basically a very average meal but prices don't reflect that as much too expensive

Food very good as service, on the other hand, shabby and worn out decoration! floors tables etc they need to invest on this floors so old they don't even look clean Sorry but attention must be paid to this, it's more like a workers club than a restaurant....

Great food, great service, lovely staff, best place to eat.....

Best Sunday Roast on the Wirral! Lovely tender Lamb, generous portions of veg with large Yorkie, all piping hot! Nice selection of real ale

The best restaurant meal we have had in a very long time, we both thoroughly enjoyed our food. We will definitely be back.

Highly recommend the Refreshment Rooms. The food was outstanding and the staff were even better! Stayed locally for a couple of nights on business trip and went here both nights for dinner Brilliant location and handy to ferry terminal at Birkenhead (about 3 miles) for those travelling by boat. Very friendly and courteous staff where customer care is second to none. Thank you

Fantastic meal for a 40th birthday celebration. Staff were attentive and helpful throughout. Always have a lovely experience here

Superb fish and chips. Really enjoy going here, always lots of choice on the menu!

Go for the food, drink, service and venue. Do not be put off by the local view or lack of it.

A great place right on the Mersey, great to watch the ships go by and enjoy a pint of excellent beer. The food is good, but my personal favourite and top recommendation is the traditional Scouse, served with bread and butter. Absolutely outstanding. There are wonderful vegetarian options too, as these are freshly prepared, please check the website for this week's vegetarian options.

Lovely place, friendly attentive staff and food really fresh & tasty. There was a large group of us (Family birthday) and although the restaurant was really busy, we were accommodated so well. Would definitely recommend and will return, thank you!

Table of 12. Birthday celebration. The staff were great and everyone enjoyed their food.

I had food from the over 62 menu, and my chilli was delicious. Starter and pudding good too!

Great Sunday roast , my wife enjoyed the gammon egg and chips .. impeccable service, and a good selection of beers .. just a shandy for me sadly today # designated driver ..

Had a great family meal here! The food is delicious, (large portions, so don't over-order), and so are the cocktails. The staff are lovely, friendly and helpful. The restaurant is all on one level, so accessible, including the toilets. They have a beautiful garden, with outside seating for the good weather, and an awning protecting part of it. They also have a kitchen garden, where they grow some of the ingredients. The menu is not too extensive to be manageable, and changes from time to time. There are themed nights, which can get very busy. They have a separate menu for over 60s, and an allergy menu. The decor is shabby chic/vintage, with paintings and photos of local places. It is not the easiest place to find, but well worth it. I recommend that you book well ahead if you want to visit on the weekend.

What an absolutely fantastic place! Great staff, great food and massive portions. Just brilliant.

Seems nice but I've had better roasts but reasonably priced. Daughter had scouse she said lovely just a big portion.

This was our second time here and our first for food, so we were looking forward to our meal as we'd had a long journey, to get the ferry to Belfast. However, our initial greeting was poor and not very friendly by the front of house gentleman, so not a good start. The rest of our server's were lovely and friendly, so that helped it to 3*. The food was lovely but very pricey, but that seems to be the norm these days, we also ordered an extra drink which didn't arrive, so another disappointment in the whole experience. As for the atmosphere that was okay due to it being a Saturday night, it was always going to be lively.. Will we go again? No is the answer, would we recommend? Sadly no, in our opinion this place may have lost its way and needs a refreshment, (pardon the pun), but no different from many other venues we have gone to recently.

Such a warm welcome Jamie our waiter was fantastic, so friendly. It was a busy day but we didn't have to wait long for our meal which was fantastic the best chunky chips ever, couldn't fault anything, .

Great tasting food and plenty of choice

Popped in here whilst walking my dog in the area, opened tripadvisor up and seen the reviews were decent so thought I would give it a try. It was around 1230pm on Sunday and the place was already full!! Usually a good sign! They said they could only fit me-in if I sat outside (it was raining ☔️) but they said it’s undercover so I opted for this. Had the trio of meat roast dinner and it was delicious lovely al dente veg great roasters and lovely tender meat all washed down with a Shiraz. Dog friendly

A good, well-presented eatery in a great location, with nice views of the estuary. Plenty of choices on the menu, including daily specials, kids' options & a decent over-60's menu serving slightly smaller portions. Free parking on the adjacent street.

Didn't book but was offered a table. Food, service and staff were all fantastic. Definitely going again.

Food was OK my partners gravy was a little salty but good pub grub and definitely dessert spot on

Really good food and service highly recommend

Best Sunday roast on the wirral. 100%. As good every time you go.

My favourite food this month and I'm fussy!!

Went for a celebration dinner, and the food was amazing. It was a very good selection, something to suit everyone and reasonable prices

Fantastic Sunday roast. Outstanding service- always someone on hand, very happy to help. Staff are really happy and great! Can see why this place is so well reviewed. Sunday roast was amazing, massive portion. We went at around 7:30pm when you can easily feel like staff want to get off and you get the last of the days food. But this place did the total opposite. We had a lovely time and will definitely be making this our regular spot!

Fantastic service, with reasonably priced & ultimately delicious, well presented food. Although we came midweek it was still quite busy, so definitely best to book ahead to avoid disappointment.

Food was OK, but very pricey. I wouldn't rush back.

Absolutely delicious food and the waitresses jo and Sarah were very welcoming and professional will definitely be coming back

Came here for the Seniors Lunch yesterday. There were 6 of us & we all had 3 courses. We found the ambience to be very pleasant & relaxing. One of the party was a local history buff & told us about the former life of the place. There are photos on the walls of this if anyone wants to know more. The staff were all very helpful, friendly & polite & the service was smooth. There was a good range of choices for us & the portion size was ideal for “mature” folk with smaller appetites. The food was piping hot, well cooked & beautifully presented. The kitchen staff obviously know their trade well. The cost was £23 each which included a tip, coffee & a soft drink. I thought that was excellent value in the current times. I was so delighted with my experience that I asked to speak to the manager so I could convey my feelings to her. I also promised I would write a review & so here it is.

Quick drink on a hot afternoon. Oasis of calm, looking out across the river. Liked the place

Just popped in for a pint - very friendly, really good real ale - lovely building. Menu looked good and well try it next time we go.

Gorgeous hidden gem located in rock ferry/ bebington the food here is absolutely gorgeous only let down was the cutlery not cleaned and polished properly and having little stains just lets the place down a little bit as its such a good spot and service always is good will still definitely come again

Great food, service, atmosphere,location, and parking. What more can you possibly ask for?

Good food but on the pricey side for a pub come restaurant.

Hidden gem. Great food, unusual location. Last visit one in our party got the fish which they didn't enjoy but on reflection it might have been partly them.

Nice food and there is a nice beer garden if there is nice weather

The fish and chips were excellent and the churros were amazing 😋

Best sandwich I've eaten for a long while. It was made with Turkish flat bread ,which is the nicest softest bread . Proper chunky chips on the side. Pate very tasty again served with Turkish flat bread

Came for a spontaneous Sunday lunch, place was just starting to get busy but were given a table in the garden room which was light and airy and lovely comfy seats. My partner had the chicken roast and I had the lamb, smaller portion option, which was actually not that much smaller than the regular sized plate so was plenty. The food was beautiful with the lamb so tender it just melted in the mouth. Looking at other plates being served around us we both said we'd definitely come back to try other dishes. The staff were welcoming and regularly came to check everything was ok or if we needed anything. Will definitely be back and would recommend to others.

We have been her a couple times now usually we love it, unfortunately today that wasn’t the case, we both ordered lasagne and some chips and it had a strange taste and didn’t taste fresh, and the chips weren’t cooked properly. we both couldn’t eat it and left hungry. Nobody came for a check back either (we were sat inside the restaurant) so we went up to the counter just paid and left unsatisfied :(

First time here, we had lunch with friends. Over 60's menu is good value for money. Recommend the fish and chips.

We were in the area and.opted for lunch at The Refreshment Rooms, parking was easy. On entering we were greeted warmly and seated quickly, it's so nice to see a pub that's kept it's history instead of stripping it all away for the carbon-copy approach. We opted for ham hock and caramelised onion quiche with new potatoes, salad and slaw, also bacon and brie panini, fries, salad, an acceptable wait time gave us a chance to chat to the lovely lady who seated us, again such a nice change to have someone actually engage with us as customers. Our server was pleasant, I'm abit old skool so I'd politely suggest leaving the gum for when you're not serving, thankyou. Food was presented nicely and looked appetising, we weren't disappointed, the quiche meal was very tasty as was the bacon and brie, we don't usually opt for dessert but the jaffa cake trifle sounded moreish - it was! Prices are reasonable and it's refreshing to have a business that obviously has a chef who takes pride in their work. The phone hardly stopped ringing and the place was filling up as we left so I would suggest booking a table particularly at weekend. Our only downside was that we couldn't stay longer although we did have a wander down the slipway before the rain set in, we enjoy places that keep it real. Great job, thankyou for an enjoyable visit.

Excellent food and a nice place to eat

We go here a lot. Both my boys work there. The customer service is excellent and not just because I'm 'mum' , everyone is treated beautifully. The food is outstanding and that def has nothing to do with my mum status. The hugs , kisses and warm welcome do have something to do with being mum but everyone is welcomed with opened arms. I had been craving my museelsmforn5 weeks but life got in the way . They were worth waiting for :)

Had lovely 3 course meal and drinks, food was really nice, great service friendly staff, thank you 🙂🥂

Love it everytime we go. Faultless 💖

I ordered two fish and chips takeaway. and I have to admit I was really enjoying it. Nice crispy batter. chips chunky delicious sauces in little ramekins. 10 on 10 Packing also very good looking. 10 on 10 as well

Excellent food and service. Would highly recommend this place. Had Steak & Ale Pie with chunky chips which was excellent and my partner had Pot Roast Lamb, Chunky Chips with seasonal veg which was divine!! Top draw food and service 5⭐️

Just had our first meal here roast lamb delicious, just waiting for our desserts , very impressive , we will definitely be returning food and staff exceeded expectations, go and try it for yourselves ,

GET GUEST WIFI!!! I left because i couldnt work

Better than I was hoping for. Sunday roast is a favourite of mine, and despite being a regular at this restaurant it was the first Sunday roast we had eaten here, It tasted as good as it looked! 6 fresh vegetables, crispy roast potatoes and roast lamb that fell apart it was so tender. With the most delicious crispy Yorkshire pudding balanced on top! The staff were pleasant and hard working.

Food was Great. Staff were fantastic and more than willing to help you with anything you need. My partner is VEGAN …. Staff and Chef were Excellent and helpful towards helping her choose her meal… Highly Rated Restaurant and it deserves it high accolades. I been to many restaurants around the world from Thailand to Barbados and USA..and most European cities since we love to travel around. My Experience here at this restaurant … The Refreshment Rooms in Wirral… is up there amongst the best I been too… We like it so much we had Breakfast next morning here as well… Check it out … if you in Wirral or around Liverpool….

Previously this place I would have said it was okay from previous experience. This occasion horrible service from the man who served us. Kids menu food was terrible. Main menu to much going on long waits.

Just got back from having lunch here 😋 it's very good will definitely be going back.

An all time favourite restaurant, outstanding food and excellent value for money - especially the Over 60s menu! Staff are always friendly,helpful and welcoming, the food is locally sourced and beautifully prepared and presented.

This is a excellent place to eat, incredible food, good service and a friendly atmosphere. We lovely this place and meals cost around 15 to 30 pounds. Unfortunately did not take any pictures as the food was to taste to waste the time.

Very disappointed came Tuesday 10th for lunch. Meals were not good small portions and Luke warm expensive and quality poor. Used to be great but definitely not the same. So won’t be going back.

Great food accompanied by a pint of Conway.

The food was excellent, and my husband, who is quite picky, thoroughly enjoyed the lamb. He complemented the chef it was so nice ,we were very happy and recommend a visit .

Lovely meal and great service. Best to book as very popular.

We are often visitors of this great restaurant / pub which serves a lovely selection of drinks including still cider from Rosies (Llangollen). The food is always very good, and normally a very generous portion size we came recently for my birthday and had the squid starter and the muscles starter although these were both very tasty the portions were quite small compared to other places especially for the price. The Sunday roast beef was delicious and very generous size which made up somewhat for the squid and muscles portions. We hope to be back again soon as the food and drinks are great with lovely staff x

Amazing food. Friendly staff. It gets busy so you would be good to book.

A really lovely spot, tucked out of the way. Well worth the trip to get lovely fresh food and friendly service.

Great food and nice and friendly staff! Nice atmosphere, close to the river! Love this place! Great!!

Breakfast was excellent. Full English, jams and marmalades on the table to use. Excellent quality and will definitely be back.

Absolutely delicious- never had a bad meal

Great food and service today. Quite peaceful as well so we were quite luck. Vegan roast was well liked as was the trio of meats Roast (beef, Lamb, pork belly) my son had the gluten free rib which where amazing

Excellent, we were blessed with good weather to be able to sit outside, choice of covered or not. Friendly lunchtime service that was surprisingly quick, after order at the counter, for the group of ten that descended on them. Everyone very satisfied with their meal and it was nice to see that vegetable/ salad items were being sourced from the attached kitchen garden. Will visit again later this summer.

The food was poor for the price

I had a Sunday dinner with cauliflower cheese absolutely delicious I couldn’t recommend them enough

Stopped In on the way to the ferry place was really busy managed to get a table we told the waiter we where a bit pressed for time drinks where quick as was our meals staff where great reasonably priced great food will return on our next visit

Stopped off on the way home from the football on Sunday evening. I'd seen the good reviews and thought we'd give it a go. Absolutely brilliant. Really lovely, friendly service from everyone we spoke to. Had the small roast pork ... excellent. Just the right amount of food. Loved the sweet potato mash. Fabulous crisp veggies. Excellent roasties, and melt-in-the-mouth pork. We will definitely make this a regular stop on the way home from games next season!
