The River View in Wirral

Called in for a pint today and it's a quite nice place to watch the world go by. It's very bright inside because of the very large windows and there is a great view across the river of sunny Liverpool. Instant service as it wasn't too full and a reasonable range of beers and ales. I'd imagine if the ferry was working it would probably be a lot busier.

Great little venue, we supplied DJ here for 60th 👍

Beautiful view of the Liverpool skyline...

Did not have food but a lively night watching the football. Atmosphere good. Typical for a football night

Great pub and staff were really friendly, and helpful, and dog friendly too

Had a couple of drinks with friends. Lovely owners, beers, locals, pool table and most of all atmosphere 😍

Great pub in Birkenhead excellent bar staff and a decent pint

Really good food, drink, staff and atmosphere!

We went here today on the off chance of a roast dinner and although we hadn't booked and they weren't sure they would be able to accommodate us they were amazing, not only did we get an amazing roast dinner the service was fantastic and they made sure we had a lovely time and meal. Our children were very complimentary of the food with one saying that we should say thank you twice. We will definitely be back (for our yorkies lol) everyone should definitely try a roast from here.

Great little pub. Friendly and decent pool table and roast dinner on a sunday r yummy

Great pub lovely atmosphere very friendly

Great atmosphere and good selection of beers

Great beer, landlady is fantastic.

I come here often now I've had the experience of tasting there Sunday roast , the food is so tasty haven't had a roast like that since I was a kid and Sunday roast was all the family together eating food that had been cooked with love time and effort 👌 that's what you have here Gorgeous 😍

The best pub iv been in very friendly staff very good place to drink and very good views of Liverpool very close to the ferry to Liverpool and just 2 minutes walk from Hamilton Square station and good for food everyday you can take kids with you and got a pool table as well and cheap for drinks

The River View, formerly The Worsley is a Birkenhead establishment in many ways, and pretty unremarkable as a pub. A small amount of outside seating, a generic selection of beers and the usual fruit machine and pool table arrangement. I'm not sure any of this is a criticism, it's unpretentious timelessness could actually be it's saving grace,

Great Staff, Nice bar. Had a man walk in too drunk trying to fight me and my friends and they dealt with it perfectly. Good people.

One of the best roasts I've had.

Great Sunday lunch. Best in Birkenhead!

Really nice , and , friendly pub serving real ale. Stunning views of the Royal Blue Mersey 💙

Great welcome back by staff member. But went completely down from there. Manageress very rude to one of party We finished our drinks and vowed not to go back

Decent pint and friendly female licensee Whats not to like xx

Went here today for Sunday lunch staff were very pleasant very welcoming ,good view over the mersey out of front window nice little pub . The lunch it's self was gorgeous everything was so tasty hot and lashings of meat juice gravy. Couldn't fault it . Followed by sticky toffee pud and custard my day was made 😋 then home for an afternoon on the couch 🤣😂🤣 very enjoyable will definitely have another roast in here. Go try it you won't be disappointed

Had a few drinks here before heading to Liverpool on the train at Hamilton Square station. Good quite pub

Lovely little spot with a nice view over the water 🥰

Pleasant bar staff and a decent pint , walking dustance from Hamilton sq train station.

This is a good pub, we always break our journey here when walking from Hamilton Square station to the Swinging Arm. The pub is always busy and the tables always seem to have plenty of diners at them, with people frequently asking if there's any tables free for food, I'd say the food must be very good, and I can. Definitely confirm that the beer is spot on.

Had a lovely Sunday dinner for mothers day

Highly recommend the Sunday roast which my family and I enjoyed today. Booked a table for 11. We all agreed it was Top notch ingredients cooked perfectly 😋. Roast beef Roast lamb or Roast chicken served with crispy roast potatoes, carrot 🥕 and turnip mash, sprouts, cauliflower. Yorkie pud and lashings of savoury gravy. We even managed dessert. Thank you Kirsty and Paula and your happy staff for making us welcome and serving such a fab dinner.

Amazing girls who work their, fab food an fab atmosphere. My little local

First time visiting on Sunday, lovely pub great atmosphere friendly staff will certainly visit again.

We called today for a drink. A pint of John Smith's and a diet coke. It was a pleasant atmosphere with music tv playing in the background. A super view over the water from the seat next to the window. The barmaid was friendly. It wasn't busy either.

Fantastic little pub and dogs welcome :)

Don't go to this pub !! I went with my partner for a quiet lunch Got there and a member of staff who was having her lunch talking to some regulars The volume of her talking ( shouting ) was was so loud we couldn't hear ourselves think We cancelled are food complained and left our drinks !! When approaching this woman there was no apology Bad Management Will telling everyone about this bad experience 😱😡😡 UNBELIEVE!!!!

Great pub for after work and wind down. Good lagers and friendly staff who throw a quiz or two to brighten up the evening

Friendly staff nice atmosphere x

Unfriendly atmosphere with very loud music and smelly toilets. Drinks are reasonably priced though.

Really lovely pub, with warm, welcoming staff. Had a great chat with with lovely lady behind the bar. I'll be back for food, menu looks amazing. Karaoke every Friday 8 till late!.....that's me hooked.

Nice clean family run business great Sunday lunch friendly atmosphere welcoming had a fantastic Sunday roast with all the trimmings even provide highchairs for infant's.

Great jukebox and friendly staff!

Superb pub in the heart of birkenvegas.

Great Sunday lunch .try it ... lovely staff

Great pub, brilliant atmosphere, busy on a weekend which is good in these times

Fantastic service, great pint of guiness Sunday lunch was amazing home cooked would highly recommend

My twin brother Stephen and I jumped the train over the River Mersey and visited some great pubs this side of the river ,we then decided to jump the ferry back to Liverpool but before boarding the ferry we dropped into The River View Pub. This is a very cool looking pub,very traditional, a solid wood serving bar dominates the main room, tv's to enjoy the sport, pubby decor and furnishings including plenty of seating options spread throughout this pub both inside and outside looking out onto and over to the majestic River Mersey,this is were we chose to sit on a roasting hot afternoon. We were greeted with a smile by a very pleasant member of the bar team, we had a study of their real ale's and we both opted to have a pale ale each from Brimstage Brewery, we settled back and took in the beautiful views afforded from the pub while sipping and pale ale's. My pale ale was really good, a crisp, well balanced pale ale, a big hit of hops, hints of toffee, a delicious aroma and aftertaste with a bitter finish, on a hot afternoon a totally refreshing brew indeed. We both really enjoyed our pale ale's in here before we moved on and as on every other visit to The River View Pub we had a very positive experience. The River View Pub is easy to locate along Chester Street. Opening hours are; Monday to Thursday, Midday till 11pm. Friday & Saturday, Midday till Midnight. Sunday, Midday till 11pm. Most definitely well worth checking out if you're in the area.

A couple of tables of outdoor seating in front mean you don't have to drink inside. Local ale on tap. Safe single yellow line parking opposite, as it is opposite the police station.

Attentive staff Clean venue Food was hot Going again Get the regular lamb roast £20 for two plus two halves

Lovely roast beef dinner really good price very clean and very friendly staff. Would go again

The River View on Chester street is without doubt one of the better pubs in Birkenhead that offers a decent beer range and great views of the Mersey river. The River View has a multi-roomed interior with a superb outside seating area which is ideal when the weather is fine. This is our first visit to the River View this year and nothing has really changed.When we visited here it was fairly quiet and once we ordered our beers we decided to sit outside as it was a roasting hot day and enjoyed our beers which where a couple of Brimstage brewery Trappers Hat.The beers we had were superb and well priced. The River View is a superb pub and is well worth a visit and is easy to find from Hamilton Square bus stop its a short walk.(This is my second review of the River View). Opening Hours. Monday-Thursday-12.00-23.00. Friday-Saturday-12.00-00.00. Sunday-12.00-23.00. Nearest Bus Stop. Hamilton Square bus stop. Nearest Train Station. Hamilton Square Train Station.

Wow what a wonderful welcome, such lovely friendly staff, nice drinks & such a welcoming atmosphere & good music even on a Monday afternoon 😀 🍻, 👍🏻

Went here 1st time ever was met with lovely staff great taste in music and great locals willbe going back

Great place to meet, good selection of beers.

Thought this place was nice at first, until the bar maid though it was clever to puncture my bycicle tires, then stand over me heckling me whilst I fixed them. Just know that there really nice while there taking your money but it's fake and if they turn on you watch out. I will never be back.

Staff have a bad attitude. They seemed nice at first but showed there true colours. The food was awful, frozen veg and the chicken was under cooked and red in the middle, I'd eaten some by then and ended up with a stomach bug the next day, all washed down with flat beer that came in a dirty glass. If that wasn't bad enough the toilets were straight out of trainspotting. Awful place. Try Gallergers next door instead.

Excellent food a very friendly atmosphere with good views

A very friendly atmosphere from customers and staff alike.

Great place to gave a drink and socialise with excellent staff

Was there in 2018/19 as my husband was working there . Kirsty had the pub then don't know if she still has it . Met her sister Paula and there mam they made me feel really welcome the meals there are beautiful its the 1st time I tried scouse after that couldn't get enough if it really friendly place

Great place. Very friendly staff and the place is spotlessly clean. Roast dinners are amazing.

Great little pub staff are friendly and welcoming also there roast dinners are amazing also great to watch the football

Some stunning views with your pint

My twin brother Stephen and I decided to jump the train across the River Mersey, we jumped off the train at Hamilton Square and the first pub we headed to was The River View Pub, a pub I always enjoy visiting. I love the look of this pub 😍, the interior is very traditional, light and airy, the main room is dominated by a solid wood serving bar, great decor and furnishings and plenty of seating options spread throughout this pub both inside and outside ,a very nice pub indeed. We were here on a Wednesday afternoon, greeted warmly by a very pleasant member of the staff, we gave our details of name ,phone number or email address to assist with the governments track and trace system and then sanitised our hands, we then ordered a beer each, we chose Carling beer,these were served in excellent condition being iced cold and sparkling and we just kicked back and took in the great pub we were in. My beer was really good, Carling beer although not my usual tipple is a light, hoppy and unpretentious lager style beer bursting taste and very easy to drink, a beer style both myself and my twin brother Stephen are particularly fond of. These are the type of pubs I love to visit, nice staff ,nice beer ,great value for money and a friendly atmosphere. We really enjoyed our beers in here and although our visit was only fleeting as we were pub hopping we had a great time as always. The River View Pub is easy to locate along Chester Road. Opening hours are; Monday to Thursday, Midday till 11pm. Friday & Saturday, Midday till Midnight. Sunday, Midday till 11pm. A great pub, if your in the area most definitely well worth a visit.

The River View On Chester Street Is A Fine Old Pub That Offers A Good Range Of Ales And Spirits Which Are Well Priced.This Is A Great Pub Housed In A Prominent Building With A Multi-Roomed Interior With Lots Of Good Seating Areas Throughout This Pubs Interior And Many Interesting Features On Display.The River View Is A Great Place To Unwind And Spend A Bit Of Time Having A Couple Of Beers And Is In Close Proximity To The Main Ferry Building.We Visited The River View In The Afternoon And After We Gave Track And Trace Details We Ordered A Few Halfs Of Strongebow Brewery Cider Which Was Very Refreshing And Very Well Priced.This Is A Very Decent Pub And Very Easy To Find From Hamilton Square Train Station Walk Along Hamilton Street Take A Right Onto Chester Street Its A Short Walk To The River View.(This Is My First Review Of The River View). Opening Hours. Monday-Thursday-12.00-23.00. Friday-Saturday-12.00-00.00. Sunday-12.00-23.00.

I enjoyed a lovely bowl of scouse here this afternoon. Piping hot and a healthy serving too.

Excellent pies served here in a wonderful atmosphere with a clear view of the river.

Before catching our Ferry over to Liverpool from Woodside Ferry Terminal my twin brother Stephen and I decided to drop into The River View Pub ,a pub I always look forward to visiting whenever I am this side of the River Mersey. I love the look of this pub ,a very cool looking place,great decor and furnishings including a cool looking serving bar and tv's to enjoy the sport, theres also plenty of seating options spread throughout this pub, its a great pub to unwind in. My twin brother Stephen and I were here on a Saturday afternoon ,pub was busy with a great atmosphere, greeted warmly by a very pleasant member of staff who served us a real ale each,we opted to have a pale ale ,these were served in excellent condition, we got a nice table were we just kicked back,chilled out and took in the great pub we were in. My pale ale was exceptional, a well balanced, full bodied pale ale bursting with taste,very easy to drink,a beer style I am particularly fond of, my twin brother Stephen also gave me a thumbs up to his pale ale,its hardly surprising that this pub is so popular with real ales this good on offer. We both really enjoyed our real ales in here before we moved on and as on every other visit to here we had a great time. The River View Pub is easy to locate along Chester Street, a great pub ,if your in the area well worth checking out.

Got off the train at Hamilton Square and had to walk past this pub on a Friday night it was quite busy with a Karaoke in the corner by the door with an experienced woman who was MCing the karaoke. The music was good not many people singing but the atmosphere was tremendous. I asked the Barmaid for a pint of Carling which was poured to perfection and just sat at the bar watching people the banter was great between the 2 girls behind the bar and the guys at the end of the bar. Very really seen in ale houses these day's. Had a great time in here ended up missing the first gig at the pub up the road but it was like I was watching a reality show in this bar excellent will call back when in the vacinity. Well done to the barmaids it was great fun watching.

Great food lovely staff good prices 😊

Very reasonably priced and nice Sunday roast...was a bit tight on the meat though

Not been in for ages, great pint of cold Guinness with great view and very hospitable staff. Outside not too shabby just needs slight painting, inside well presented and loads of space. Did not have any food just couple of drinks and good chat with owners.

Dined with some friends mid week for lunch, a very relaxed and friendly place to dine. The food was delicious well cooked and presented and very good value for money. We really enjoyed our visit and were able to relax and talk without competing with blaring music. The female staff were very nice and friendly, really enjoyed our afternoon and will definitely be returning.

It was clean that's about all I could say

Lovely food nice atmosphere, reasonable price and lovely staff

Friendly staff, good pint and food looked nice enough. Fantastic view of the Liver buildings etc. and the Mersey.

Good Beer. Friendly Birkenhead welcome.

This was our first visit to the pub. We all had Sunday lunch which proved to be great value for money and very well presented. Choice of 3 different meats etc Also a great pint of John Smith bitter. Highly recommended.

We loved christmas kareoke and meal and drinks. Great night

Ordered a cheese and onion toastie £3.85, no onion or salad , we renamed it the depressed cheese toastie, abysmal !!!
