The Richard John Blackler in Liverpool

Had a brekkie, very nice too, with refillable coffee, brilliant prices

The gentlemans toilets urinals two off were overflowing, I spoke to the manager twice, tall thin guy, but he never oganised them to be cleared, I really don't appreciate standing in other people's piss, I was in this wetherspoons franchise from 5oc till 9.30oc and I do believe that if the environmental health viewed these toilets then I'm sure the kitchens need a visit to, I had a lovely double burger with a few chips which thank god I wasn't that hungry but it was acceptable. I would just like to point out that this franchise Richard John Blackler could raise their standards a bit more .... Thank you for the rant.

Decent sized pub. Good selection of beers. Quick and efficient service. Good atmosphere. Top spoons

Very friendly staff in the morning then returned to find new staff with attitudes and entitlement Staff being rude to customers from behind the bar while we watched in disgust. Staff were shouting across the bar whilst the manager was discussing a disagreement, customers asked to leave despite the bar staff instigating and aggravating the situation instead of deescalating. One of the bar staff thought he was still at a pride event flicking his hair with his arm bent like he had a bag on it with an enormous sense of entitlement along with his female friend who had a mouth on her that surgeon couldn’t close. (With difficulty)We visited another bar after and met the customers who were asked to leave from this establishment and they were lovely and quite upset on how they were treated by the bar staff and the manager. We will return to the Richard Blackler but hopefully these staff won’t be on duty otherwise we will chose another bar. A similar review from Catherine Macauley 4 months ago describing members of staff having toxic attitude to customers.

Nice food but can get a bit rowdy at times

Giving a 1star only because it's the only way to leave a review, quite frankly 1 star is way too much. I ordered 2 American pancakes with bacon and maple syrup. I originally though they had forgot the bacon until I lifted one of the pancakes, to find 2 miniscule slithers of bacon, seriously tiny! When I questioned this with staff I was told you only ordered a small portion! Correct I did only order a small portion of pancakes however, the bacon that came out with it was quite frankly an insult!!!! The staff didn't appear to be bothered or get my point that I was dissatisfied about portion size and duisgusted that 2 tiny pieces of bacon the size of child's plasters! I was refunded, but I think this is the final straw of me eating at JD Wetherspoons. You get what you pay for and it's never the best but you jeep giving way but not this time...shocking!

Service is second to none & servers are polite & very efficient. Found a area so 14 of us could sit together and nice food

Mi padre termina y fui a desayunar el domingo por la mañana. El personal de una chica llamada Zoe era tan grosero. Golpeó las tazas en el mostrador y apuntó hacia la izquierda (lo que significa que lo descubrí después. La máquina de bebidas estaba por allí) entonces cuando pagué con mi tarjeta ella groseramente sin siquiera mirarme murmuró sobre ello declinó. Le pregunté si se había levantado de la cama del lado equivocado. Básicamente me silbó. Le pregunté su nombre desde entonces en que era tan grosera. Entonces el gerente grosero vino y me dijo que obtuviera mi reembolso ya que no me estaban sirviendo... no escuchó lo que tenía que decir. Muy muy grosero. Creo que hay que hacer algo de reentrenamiento. He dirigido algunos pubs en mi tiempo. Sé cómo hablar a la gente

Food was ok I wanted the meal that was advertised on every table for them to say they ran out!!!

Was served by a girl with tattoos on her arms who was very abrupt and charged me normal price on a Tuesday when it should have been Steak Club price didn't get her name just think she finished her shift at 5pm on 5 November 2024, because of her I won't be visiting this wetherspoons again.

A very big pub right in the centre of Liverpool and at the smarter end of the Wetherspoons chain. Remarkable value for money for both food and a big range of drinks. Excellent service as well. Suggest that you give it a try.

Nice and friendly, the night I went there

Sunday night 3rd November, great staff, polite and friendly with good food. Today, Monday 4th - Customer service from the blonde head woman / ponytail very miserable and rude; wouldn’t explain the promotional offers to me; asked second person. Much better. Overall would come back.

Friendly Spoons in the centre of Liverpool. Reasonable food at reasonable prices. We enjoyed our visit with our grandson.

Febs serving so well and we hv a so great meal~~thank you so much

Dropped in for a quick beer before catching the train. Great atmosphere and friendly & polite staff . Would definitely visit again.

One of the best wetherspoons we've been in and really enjoyed it.. good choice of drinks and the nachos was really good.. well recommended and can't wait to go back. Lovely friendly staff and very good service 😋😊

Decent Spoons which is close to the centre and easy distance of the Hilton.

Service quick and food hot spot on

Long time to be served drinks at the bar . Even through not that busy. Then Decided to have food which was nice. & Cannot complain for the value Then decided to order more drinks via the app. Again another long wait .

Manual fish and chips. Good prices. Relaxed atmosphere.

Typical Witherspoon's which is a good thing. Excellent value as always in these days of overpriced food and drink. Food was good and the beer excellent

Didn't have food for once, atmosphere really good

This was a poor breakfast effort today. The egg was scrambled instead of fried as advertised. They could have put a sign up to say something like “to eke out our supply of eggs, we will be serving half as much cold scrambled eggs as you paid for. Yours cynically, TM.”

Bit disappointed with beans, they tasted bland and cheap everything else was spot on what you expect from a well run city centre pub.

Didn't have food but have a great selection of beers & spirits at very good prices

Place is booming 24/7 haha, a proper pub, full of people from all walks of life, seen people falling asleep drunk to girls dressed up like models, funny place.

Lovely staff and great food and good prices

We have these Wetherspoons pubs in London too, can't believe they have spread further! Bloke in charge is doing a top job

Compared to other spoons, it's a very good one . I like the atmosphere and it's always busy. Whenever I'm around baker Street, that place is a must have.

Average to Good pub. Disappointed when food arrived cold 🥶

Went in for some drinks for a friend retirement.. Great service at the bar..

As a DISABLED PERSON I WAS REFUSED ACCESS TO THE DISABLED TOILET FROM THE DUTY MANAGER CALLED SOPHIE BECAUSE I DIDN'T " LOOK DISABLED

Good vibe ,friendly waitress , breakfast was value for money

Great, ordering via app is quick and easy

Mi hermano gemelo y yo estábamos esperando que nuestro autobús nos llevara al aeropuerto John Lennon para tomar un vuelo a Portugal para una semana de vacaciones, tuvimos tiempo para matar, así que nos dejamos caer en el Richard John Blackler Pub, hemos estado aquí antes en muchas ocasiones, siempre lo pasamos bien y así lo demostró en nuestra última visita. Un gran pub Wetherspoon, el interior es magnífico, decoración típica de Wetherspoon y muebles, un llamativo bar de servicio, gran decoración y muebles y un montón de opciones de asientos repartidos por todo este pub, es solo un pub muy bueno para relajarse. Conseguimos botellas de Birra Moretti, estas finas cervezas italianas fueron servidas en excelentes condiciones siendo heladas frías y espumosas, nos relajamos y empapamos de la gran vibra en este concurrido y popular pub Wetherspoon. Esta cerveza es soberbia, es una cerveza estilo lager dorada, ligeramente malteada, una lager bien equilibrada , tan sabrosa sobre todo cuando se sirve helada fría como en este pub. Otros disfrutamos mucho de nuestras cervezas aquí antes de seguir adelante y aunque nuestra visita fue solo fugaz como en cualquier otra visita a aquí nos lo pasamos muy bien, es un pub fácil de localizar Great Charlotte Street, una calle y zona repleta de pubs, bares, cafeterías y restaurantes. El horario de apertura es; Lunes a domingo, abierto de 8 am. Vale la pena comprobar si estás en la zona.

Its a city centre Wetherspoons pub, an ok drop-in pub on your way to elsewhere 🙂

GREAT LOCATION Pub is that close to bus stop that you can literally step out from the bar & step into the bus. As usual environment is very nice. I enjoyed having a pint of beer over there.

Vi var på the Richard John Blackler i Manchester den 19/9 och besökte Richard John Blackler i Liverpool den 20/9, borden var kladdiga och personalen hann inte med. Ingen log och den äldre kvinnan bakom disken i hästsvans och glasögon var otrevligt och snäste. Maten gick inte att jämföra med det vi fick kvällen innan i Manchester. Vi fick ej heller samma erbjudande utan kunde bara få vin medan i Manchester fick vi drinkar som ingick, riktigt dålig service, gå ej hit!!!! Jag beställde Scania och fick scami som var fiskpanetter såå low budget

Llevo años aquí un domingo por la noche con 3 amigos. Durante las últimas 4 o 5 semanas cuando entramos se han quedado sin cervezas. Este domingo pedí 2 pintas de Worthington Bitter y 2 Carlsberg (después de una espera de 10 minutos, y no estaba muy ocupado) el camarero tomó dinero para bebidas, luego procedió a servir los amargos y luego dijo que el Carlsberg se había agotado. Dame 2 pintas de Carling ¡Siento que se haya agotado también! En este momento los 2 bebedores Amargos ya estaban cenando sus pintas. terminamos con 2 pintas de luz Bud que ni siquiera me gusta. Como dije, esto está sucediendo cada semana. También los baños Gents son una desgracia sin rollo de inodoro en ninguno de ellos.

Good spot. Always enjoy having a pint and on occasions food a well. I dislike being given a pint at 2345 and then being told your out by twelve. But it it a good spot.

Great place to meet and enjoy the experience

As much & as good as you'd expect. CHEAP ALE TODAY!!

i totally get that its sunday morning and you have a busy brekkie but a little "hi enjoy your food" when serving a plate would be nice instead of "here is your food go choke on it".

This used to be a great pub but now the place is a dive, plates and glasses piled up on all the tables, hardly any staff and no one seems to care. Such a shame

Food not as good now. No gluten free food what so ever costing them a loss of trade. So easy to have things like jacket potatoes with tuna & salad or cheese. All Gluten FREE PRODUCTS The Company have lost the plot.

Fantastic place. Nice staff. Great entertainment 👌

Great staff .reasonable prices. Toilets spotless . Realy enjoyed it .

Went Liverpool weatherspoons they are the same wherever you good food good service friendly staff

Very busy. Staff pleasant. Got served quickly Reasonable prices

Lo-o-o-ong wait at the bar. There's no sort of queuing system. I love the Villa Maria blush Sauvignon though.

Big pub this one, busy on the weekends, good service and as always cant wrong with weatherspoons, cheap food and beverages. Also i think this one has more choice for food than the other restaurant have. 3 small plate menu was big and had loads of choices i haven’t seen before.

Food was ok ordered a breakfast it come out with scrambled egg when fried egg was ordered and they never mentioned it before food was brought out they overall staff were great atmosphere was good only downside is people off the street begging for money while sat at the table

Pub in an excellent location, large, there is always space available. Great menu with wide choice.

We're from out of town, and walked in to have some dinner and drinks. No one greeted us to explain how everything works, that you seat yourself and order at the bar, etc. The only free table had wet stains from the previous customer. A girl came by to clear the dishes off a nearby table and wipe it down, but ignored us. After some time, we were able to get someone's attention to clean our table, too. I ordered Tandoori chicken kebabs, and the chicken was very dry and overcooked, I could barely get the chicken off the wooden skewers. My husband had a chicken sandwich and side salad. The sandwich had just lettuce and tomato, no mayonnaise or sauce of any kind, and the salad didn't appear to have dressing either, or was barely perceptible. The drinks (beer and wine) were good, and sold for a very reasonable price, which may explain why it was so crowded. So I recommend this place for drinks, but not for food.

First time in this wetherspoons been Liverpool numerous times but never been in here worth a visit will go in again next Liverpool trip 😊

Nice place and the drinks are a decent price didn't review the food because we didn't have any food 👍

Pleasant staff didn't have to wait to long for food

Vino a tomar una copa con la familia y se quedó un tiempo. Buen ambiente agradable. Me reuniría con la familia allí de nuevo.

It's a weatherspoons. No atmosphere but drinks roughly half the price. In the current climate it's a shame more aren't charging these reasonable prices.

Orded a pint of leff asked for no head the drink came and was about an inch lower down the glass I asked if I could have a full pint as the glasses are a pint to the rim the lady was non helpful telling me its what I get as no head on beer then went and asked someone and was told to fill up really bad attitude you thought I'd asked her for a kidney lol but the larger was nice it clearly say on the glass ( pint to the brim )

A good wethers , can get very busy at times but good place for a catch up with mates. Great selection of real ales.

I realise the pub was busy last night and that was why the service was slow but there's no excuse not to cook the burgers fresh. The patties were dried out and you could tell that they had been precooked and warmed up before being sent out. Which is a shame because the food is usually good.

Usual 'Spoons great service and value.

Lovely and clean with excellent bar staff. Also a lovely pint!!

Great food spoiler the number of people vaping around us ... I thought vaping was banned inside ... I did not feel good after vaping getting on my chest... no good when people want something to eat

Fast service for food and beer. Recommended

Usual good value for money and reliable quality you'd expect from a Wetherspoon. In a prime location so always busy, but the high service standards are always maintained. It's always clean, food is always fresh. 5*

A very nice place to eat and watch the match, in the center of the city.

It's a bit rough, always street drama to watch. Super fast service. Hard working staff. Clean.

Light and airy pub of the chain. Can get very busy.

I ordered fried halloumi cheese, it was rubbery. Some of it is burnt, the rest is completely white. When you chew it, you can HEAR how it creaks to your teeth and there is so much salt that you can’t feel the cheese itself Just cheese and rubber. Also, one of the drinks was not brought right away. We only received it when we specifically asked at the checkout and demanded to check the receipt.When I asked questions about what happened to the cheese, they told me that it was as it should be and I couldn’t replace anything. This cheese should be soft and slightly stretchy, not springy. Also, when we received our drinks, the employee picked his nose in the process, there are some questions about how normal this is in their establishment. We liked it here the first time, but now even the cozy interior and freely available sauces are not an advantage. This is without mentioning that our pizza was not cut, and the soda ended up with a different taste. Also, the cheese was brought just piled on top of each other. Although we liked the shrimp. There were also no cocktails.

Very nice pub and help when asked ,but busy

You know what you get at Wetherspoons but good food god beers at affordable price's

A very busy day when we visited, so the slower service can be excused. Vacated tables were cleared quickly by the floor staff though, who were extremely busy. A great choice of cask ales were available too, as you'd normally come to expect in a Wetherspoon pub. The toilets are located on the same level too, which is a pleasant surprise if you're used to Wetherspoon pubs and the usual arduous trek up or down stairs.

Just your usual wetherspoons, cheap as chips! staff were lovely and despite it being extremely busy staff were goin the extra mile to clean

What a dump. First thing to see when we walked in was a huge pile of vomit. Seemed to be the meeting place for every hen and stag party that day. Some customers looked drugged out of their faces. I would have felt more comfortable in the Star Wars cantina.

I wouldn't bother can't get served..

Worst food ive been given in my life got a America burger on menu says cook fresh .got it look like it had been sat around for a good week then reheated..I didn't even try to eat it .I just walked of in BIG disappointed. STAY CLEAR OF THE FOOD IN THIS PLACE.

Great place to spend a couple of hours.

Been here loads of times but no more.Stood at bar for 5 minutes and people coming after me were being served first.Then barmaid asked who was next so put my hand up and said me,she looked at me and did see me then totally ignored me and served someone who again came in after me.Her excuse was they were short staffed but that doesn't explain ignoring me.This is now the end of me going to Wetherspoons as I've had problems in others in Liverpool in the past.

Appalling, went into place, to use toilet as have prostate cancer, bought a coffee so as not to be rude, machine 1 broken, moved to machine 2, my refill cup was removed and was told by impolite staff that I hadn't paid, so asked to leave rudely, looked up online to see it has many negative reviews about rat infestations and brawls among drunken customers, bad 👎 review I'm afraid, as I live here and think the staff involved portray Liverpool very badly,

A Wetherspoons pub,so therefore cheap and welcome prices,good service At the end of the day,so hard to rate atmosphere, as place was sparsely populated

4 of us went for breakfast 2 had almost finished theres before me and my wife got ours...

2 mins from the adelphi hotel , great breakfast great service

Very busy pub excellent beer toilet on ground floor

You know what you're getting with spoons the food is always nice. The atmosphere was good and the staff were friendly. Everything came to the table quickly as we ordered on the app as expected it was very busy but not rammed so easy enough to find a table.

Great spot for a meal and a few pints..

Orders wrong, put a meat sausage on a vegetarian plate. No cutlery, drinks machine not working. Breakfast cold when we finally got round to eating it. Unhelpful staff.

Up,out and about on a dull,rainy July morning, our summers are wonderful aren't they,my twin brother and I decided to jump the train down from Kirkby to Liverpool City Centre and visit some of the great pubs our city is justifiably famous for, one of the first we visited was The Richard John Blackler Pub, been here before on many occasions, always had a good time and so it proved on our latest visit. I love the look of this pub, interior is superb, it's big ,a solid wood serving bar dominates the main room, typical Wetherspoon decor and furnishings, photo's of old Liverpool adorning the walls and there's plenty of seating options spread throughout this pub both inside and outside looking out onto the busy and bustling shopping streets around this pub, its a great pub to unwind in. We were here on a Tuesday late morning, a quick study of their real ale's and we both opted to have Hook Norton Brewing Co " old Hooky " these were served in excellent condition, we grabbed a table were we chilled out and soaked up the great vibe in this busy and popular Wetherspoon pub while enjoying our delicious ale's. My real ale was really good, a strong ale ,well balanced, well crafted, hints of toffee, a delicious aroma and aftertaste with a smooth finish, a classic British ale indeed, it was just so good being in such a lovely pub enjoying a quality ale and sat with my twin brother, best beer companion in the world and as an added bonus because we are members of C.A.M.R.A we used our real ale/cider tokens here which gave us 50p off the price of a real ale each making an already great value for money ale and even better value for money ale. We both really enjoyed our ale's in here before we moved on and although our visit was only fleeting as on every other visit to The Richard John Blackler Pub we had a very positive experience. The Richard John Blackler Pub is easy to locate along Great Charlotte Street, a street and area teeming with pubs, bars, cafe's and restaurants. Opening hours are; Monday to Sunday, open from 8am. Well worth checking out if you're in the area.

It's a 'Spoons so you should know what to expect. Cheap and cheerful maybe, but great value. We had excellent, friendly service, good food and a pint. A filling dinner for 2 with drinks for about £20. Great all round!

Had a breakfast was nice not to much

Lovely helpful staff and chilled environment.

This was a fantastic pub for drinking, with a modern design suitable for Liverpool's vibrancy! The diagonal and futuristic lighting contributes to this, as does the layout of the lamps. Counter is well shaped and presented, seating is comfortable and I had a refreshing pint of Kopparberg!

At least they keep there prices the same and don't put them up for the weekend

Fairly busy. Stag and hen parties. Great food.

First time visit to this one. Very busy, so it's understandable that service is slower. However, the chicken wings were over cooked, but the other dishes were ok.

Great place to meet friends and start your evening

Pleasant and helpful staff always make a visit more enjoyable.
