The Saughall Pub & Dining in Wirral

No baguettes, no potatoes, took 1 hour 10 minutes to make 1 burger and some ribs.

Just had small family party at the Saughall, great food, staff couldn't do enough for us, thank you. x

Live band cancelled by venue, looking forward to a good night but the management stopped the live act.

Sunday Roast was plentiful but not really hot enough a comment from fellow diners as well

We had an excellent meal followed by live entertainment provided by 'the vibes'. It was a good night out although more people need to take advantage of this good local pub.

Disappointed with the food not as good as it used to be...pub is great and staff too. Really clean with a great outside play/ seating area

Very friendly! Even the dogs got to enjoy a Sunday roast 😊

Although friday night the pub was very quiet to start with. Food was good will go back again.

Excellent Saturday night at the Saughall. The live band Stolen Property were really good performing songs from 60s to the 90s. Great banter between themselves and the audience. Food was reasonably priced. Non alcoholic Guinness and Heineken available to compliment a range of beers and lagers. Plenty of parking. Kids play area and beer garden for when the weather improves. Dog friendly and a special dog menu too. Worth a visit.

Okay so his has been my family local for decades, we stopped coming here solely because of the silly price rises.... however recently we learned that prices had dropped to a more affordable price, indeed this was the case and my husband and I enjoyed a few pints of great quality Guinness, barmaid Jill was fantastic, as was Emma the manger, friendly and so attentive, sadly this couldn't be said for Emma's daughter who was rude and totally unfriendly, this mirrored the last time we visited when she served us back in the summer of last year, for that reason we will not stay if she's on site as staff, other than her we will most definitely be back 👍

Went to celebrate my hubby’s birthday, haven’t been since lockdown, new management so wasn’t sure what it would be like……absolutely stunning food, service was excellent, most definitely we will be back.

Very welcoming. Lovely staff. The roast is tasty and very good value for money.

Lovely friendly pub. Food well presented and very good value

Lovely pub food delicious bit a work ongoing on toilets still good evening

Brilliant food lovely hosts looking forward to going back

I can’t praise, Emma, Danni and all the staff at the Saughall enough. They provided a wonderful funeral celebration of my husband with 50 mourners attending on Friday. Providing delicious home cooked hot meals, drinks & atmosphere with roaring fires & candlelit tables. It was very cosy and comforting. Everyone who attended was full of praise for the service and personal care we received. Thank you so much.

Food is very professional made. Atmosphere is very good.stuff are helpful and friendly will call again soon thanks.

Edit: What an improvement. The new owners have done a great job!!! The food is amazing. A mix of British classics and South African classics. Highly recommend the wors and pap. SO GOOD. The staff are lovely, attentive and friendly and the beer is great but the food is absolutely awful. I've had better school dinners. The burger was like a hockey puck and the cheese cake was dry and flavourless. I wouldn't feed it to my dog... if I had a dog. I couldn't stomach it.

Great food, amazing management, and staff. Warm welcoming pub. And OMG, try the South African dishes.

Went here as a party of 4 as we had heard good things. But unfortunately it is some of the worst food I’ve eaten and I’ve been to weatherspoons. We arrived on a Friday no one in there what’s so ever so alarm bells were ringing straight away. Food was awful I had chicken strips as a starter (definitely from Iceland) and then lasagne as a main which was possibly the worst lasagne I’ve ever had in my life. If you have 1 bad meal out of 4 you’d think okay fair enough but all 4 meals were awful not one of us enjoyed it at. Would not attend again.

Good food but room too cold. Believe the boiler was broken but maybe we should have been told and we may not have stayed

Food absolutely delicious and the service was amazing. Highly recommend visiting

Only had a drink in the lovely garden but will be back for the food

Had a fantastic South African meal which was on the specials. Can't remember what it was called now but it was absolutely lovely. It was so nice to be able to try something different. The wife went for sausage and mash and really enjoyed it too. If you haven't been recently, I would recommend to give it a try. The owners are lovely and the food was exceptional 👌

The Pub landlady was very kind letting me use the toilets when I was in desperate need. Although I offered to buy something(not a beer as it's early) in return she let me used for free. I appreciate it and will definitely come back for a drink. Thank you

Organised a hen party for my soon to be daughter in law. Emma, manager was so helpful even when members of the party were held up. Food was gorgeous and the staff were so helpful and friendly. Great night

The cheese pie .was the best i've every had .The staff are brilliant .

Amazing place,this is the 2nd time I've been with my family, food was so tasty,I couldn't even finish my roast dinner it was so filling,all fresh food as well and the specials are great! Lively atmosphere,dog friendly and a great beer garden for the kids with a bouncy castle. Staff were so friendly and always checking everything was OK.

So disappointed. New owners give it a go! Food under cooked, greasy and tasteless. gave 1 star as the coffee was nice. No atmosphere . One to be avoided.

Brilliant atmosphere, great staff , good playground for children, food is delicious .

Great place for Sunday dinner huge portions and staff super friendly and attentive will definitely revisit

Was a lovely evening sitting in the garden. We were with our dog so was expecting to stay outside. The staff were very busy with a large party in. We should have really booked online seeing as it was a Saturday but as there was just two of us thought we could sneek in. Waited over an hour for our burgers but to be fair the staff apologised for the delay and the food was very good. Big plus we were allowed inside with our 🐶 will return so recommend.

Just a simple pub with simple food. Nice and easy as a snack. Don't expect top food, but certainly don't expect bad food either. If you want a quick bite or a stop along the way to eat, you've come to the right place.

New owners, redecorated. Wasn't expecting much as pubs nowadays are so samey food wise. Well, it was fabulous. The homemade steak and akw pie with yes, proper home-made gravy and chips was perfect. Was £14.99 but sooooo worth it. My go to pub now.

Really not good portion size small definitely not macaroni cheese Very dry Won't be going again

Food was ok waited a while for our food. We thought the meals were a bit expensive for what we got. Had been a few months before, wasn't impressed then with the food, but thought we'd give it another go, and still we weren't impressed. So won't be going again. Food average and too expensive

The first time I've been back here since I was 19, that's 31 years ago, it's great what they've done to the place and the outside areas too, light and airy space, modernised but not too much, still some of the old traditional saughall charm, the food was great,we will be coming back, great friendly service.

Nice local pub. Very welcoming staff. Tables well spaced out as will I be after a couple more pints. Thwaites beers🍺Good. Recommended

Awful experience. Waited over 1.5 hours for food. Upon arrival steaks were cooked wrong, food was luke warm. Kids were so upset because of the long wait. Service was poor. Multiple things out of stock or not working. Other people ordered after us and had received and ate before our kids meals had even arrived. Manager was asking me what I wanted her to do rather than coming up with a solution. Refund was eventually offered. Such a shame as the pub was great under previous management. Can't say I'd ever go back.

Everything was great the food was so nice i highly recommend. My only issue was we waiting nearly a hour for our food and it wasnt that busy but the taste if the food made up for it.

Excellent Sunday Lunch. Best in Wirral for quality and value

The first time I've had a Sunday roast lamb dinner with chips and a squashed yorshire pudding on a small plate with plenty of peas we waited over an hour for it and after rave reviews were thourghly disappointed we will not be returning

We sat outside for just one drink. Big outdoor area with a slide for children and around 25 picnic benches. My only negative comment would be that the outside could be tidier and the picnic benches cleaner.

A bit expensive for what you get but nice place

New review for new owners: Attended as the atmosphere and setting are always right! Was told to order soon or it’d be an hour wait due to a large party coming in….no sign of them yet so rush was kind of unnecessary! Kids Mac and cheese was a disgrace - oily, flavourless, served in a piping hot, straight from the oven dish which would have injured my 4yo! Pet hate of mine! Sauce packets served in a dirty pot - nothing major just, definitely needed some attention. Adults cheese burger was delicious, few empty bites as oval patty on square bun - chunky chips were amazing. adults roast was delicious, just missing s portion of stuffing but that’s personal taste. A child stood in glass whilst we were eating, personally if it took the staff that long to react to my child who had injured themselves on their premises, I wouldn’t have been as understanding. Seemed blasé although eventually someone did come out with the first aid box. Previous owners: kids meals are great portions. Food is always fresh. Roasts are delicious. Every time we’ve been we’ve been happy. Always busy and friendly, down to earth staff. Play area and random bouncy castles is great to entertain the kids.

Much improved menu and friendlier staff.

Excellent food would recommend the pie. pleasant landlord, all food was freshly cooked will definitely go there again.

Wide selection on menu, excellent food nicely presented.

Excellent pub with open and well maintained beer garden

Beer far to expensive since takeover £4.50 for carling £5.80 for "premium beer" staff pounce on you as you walk in the door, can't order drinks at the bar right infront of you have to go into the bar area.

Food excellent - baked ham was divine. Staff are lovely, very patient and helpful. Will definitely go again!

Great food and excellent service. Great for families. My 2 year old daughter loves the bouncy castle.

Only went for a San Miguel,but at £6.30 a pint don't think I'll come again

Poured an excellent pint of Guinness. Bar staff were very pleasant and deserved their gratuity. Very pleasant afternoon.

I ate here tonight with my family, service was excellent! Food was delicious. Staff are lovely, we will definitely be eating here again.

A weird experience. Felt like we weren't welcome, even though the place was empty. This is a lovely location. Sort it out please.

Considering that the owners have had problems with equipment etc due to previous owners our experience was one of nicely cooked hot food reasonably priced great service looking forward to returning on relaunch night big shout out to dave and Emma ps your welcome for help on your I.t issues had lunch today full menu really good food proper chips still score 5stars

A new menu with delicious dishes at reasonable prices, cooked by a new chef and served by friendly and tentative staff. Family atmosphere, where all can feel welcome. A very enjoyable evening. Will most definitely be back soon.

Lovely pub, staff were amazing. Lived there for 6 years and I loved every minute of it. The saughall shack looked amazing. Would live there again if given the opportunity

Limited menu but they have just reopened

I’ve only given a rating of three stars because although the food is fantastic and deserves 5 stars, it is let down by the toilet facilities ( gents ) I suffer from IBS and quite often usually immediately after a meal, I need to use the toilet facilities. When I entered the gents toilet, I was disappointed to find that the toilet door had a big gap both top and bottom where it has been cut down. This I feel is a gross invasion of privacy. When I asked my girlfriend if the ladies was the same, she said no there was a full sized door on the toilet cubicle. For this reason, I’m not planning to return any time soon and if I find any other pubs with a cut down door I’ll be giving them a wide berth. I’m sure that if you did the same to the ladies you’d get a load of complaints. I don’t expect to get any sort of response from the proprietors because they only seem to reply to the reviews that are favourable to them and won’t even try to address any complaints from customers. They obviously don’t care as long as the money keeps coming in from the Customers who don’t seem to mind the invasion of privacy issue that I raised. What’s next? cctv in the toilet cubicle? How much does a toilet door cost for god’s sake? I’m completely incensed by all this and I’m not going to let it go until something is done about it. The responsibility lies with you as the owner, not your staff. If someone has a complaint they go to the employer not the employee which I have done. Maybe you should just hand ownership over to your staff if you’re not capable of dealing with it

Lovely place. Food was amazing and staff were lovely and helpful

So this is a lovely little pub with really nice food. You get table service here which is a nice touch. All staff are really really friendly and couldn't accommodate us any more. The food food was fantastic and also really really well priced. Cheap in price but in no way cheap in quality! I would highly recommend this place for a bite to eat or a drink!!!

Tried this place today for a carvery as i have seen the good reviews other weeks, I'm sorry to say I was very disappointed and so was my mum who was with me, seated in a little corner away from everything against a wall, had a carvery there was no chicken so went for the beef which was not to bad but a bit chewy, the cabbage was rock hard barely cooked you don't get to choose your roast I was given 3 which only one was edible, I like well done roasties but these tasted of actually burnt so could only eat one, the mash was nice but the mushy peas were more like soup instead of peas, the carrot and swede was in big chunks which were hard, I barely touched my dinner neither did my mum, I have to also say the service was pretty poor but I think that was down to maybe were we were seated, 40 minutes later a young girl came to eventually take the plates so we explained we did not enjoy the dinner at all and she just looked at us timid and walked off, didn't really have the time to wait for pudding as things had taken so long and the next tabkes had taken over 40 mins for there puddings and they had to go and ask were they were, so we asked for the bill to be charged for 2 courses when we only had one , at no point were we told this when we were seated, so we ordered puddings we didn't really want as we'd had to pay for them, so upon paying the bill no apology we didn't enjoy the dinner nothing, I have to say I'm pretty disappointed in the saughall in the whole experience

7 of us went there it wasn't busy starter's were served and then waited and waited for our main meal which was forgotten about after an hour wait we got our main meal they did offer us free drinks cause we were forgotten which was good of them

Sunday roast dinner is really good.

Really good carvery, great service

Fabulous carvery, washed down with a few Erdingers 😋😋😋. Had to wait a while for our table, but it was worth it.

Had lunch Fri, with my niece & friend,, fish chips & mushy peas , absolutely delicious , to die for, I went last wk with my brother,, goin to make it a weekly thing the food is gorgeous, always piping hot & the price is brilliant £9.99 for 2 course unbeatable, you Carn,t go wrong .

G8 place to visit . And lovely food and staff 👌

After reserving a table for 7pm and arriving well before that time, I ordered fish & chips, which I was told they’d ran out of. Having to make an alternative choice ‘on the spot’, I chose “Bangers & Mash”. After a further 20-25 mins, I was dealt what can only be described as an ”OAP microwave meal” consisting of 3 anaemic sausages, soapy beans from a catering can and some powdered mash. Absolutely no effort was made in the preparation and presentation of this “meal”. It was absolutely the worst pub meal I have EVER had in my entire life! A re-visit is no more…

Pensioners lunch date was great. We booked a table in December not realising this was on, had a great time, with great staff, live singer and Santa. We returned in January. Staff are so accommodating. We are now going every month to this event. Lots of dancing, so if your a people watcher it's great. Set menu for this event. £9.99 for 2 courses and a couple of pound extra for 3 courses. Plenty of choice They cater for all appetites, from Vegetarian to Gluten Free. Definitely give it a try. Lovely atmosphere here.

Mmmm. Staff work their socks off. However, the quality of the meat (for Boxing Day) was dry & tastless. Bizarrely, there was also a vinegar taste somewhere in the veg. It ruined my entire plateful. Sadly, I won’t be back. 2 stars is for the staff

Carvery was average service was slow staff not very friendly.

Very nice atmosphere staff good food excellent

Called in on off chance around 7pm. Never been before so didnt know what to expect. Three of us had Xmas menu. All had mushrooms for starters. Absolutely delicious! Two of us had carverys, plenty of meat and veg. One had chicken stuffed with pate. Very nice too. Nice food, good service, reasonably priced. Will defo call again!

It's a very local pub. £££ beer.

Visited today for a family Christmas meal. We had pre-booked the table for 1pm. It was really busy as we arrived & our table was a bit too close to the one behind, so much so, that we had to shift ours a foot or two to make it easier to sit comfortably. We waited around 35 minutes for our starters & had to politely remind the staff we had not had them. Mum & sister in law had ordered vegetable soup to start, but it looked nothing like you would expect it to look. My sister in law questioned it with a member of staff, who assured her that it was definitely vegetable soup 🤔 It looked to me like tomato soup that had been made in a blender. It was a deep red shade, rather thick & there were no visible veg in the dish. I tasted Mum's & it was definitely a spicy tomato soup.I had pre-ordered the chicken breast, as had Mum. It was really disappointing to see the small meal on the large plate. A large breast of chicken with some very small cubed potatoes & two pieces of broccoli on top. My brother, his wife & my husband had ordered the carvery & came back with plates piled high with veg etc. I asked a staff member if my meal was complete as it looked so pathetic with no extras. I was told i could go to the carvery for extras, though it's not the norm apparently. The chicken was tasty, but if you're expecting a decent sized portion go for the carvery instead. I had trifle to finish - a decent portion, but utterly bland if i am honest. The menu states the trifle comes with a surprise on top??? Not sure what it was, but mine was topped with cream. As far as I'm aware, that's the norm. We waited an eternity for someone to take our drinks order when we were seated, but in fairness to the staff, there were not enough of them to cope with the vast number of diners & that's down to mis-management. I forgot to mention my starter of creamy mushrooms which were delicious & the best part of my meal. Overall our experience today was not great. I have had better meals in there in the past & haven't waited an eternity for service.

Great menu, value for money what more can you ask for! Recently had Liver & onions superb, don't forget the bread! Another day braised steak, melt in the mouth, both great with mash. A good selection of puds included in the value for money!! Must try to appreciate it? Enjoy!!

Excellent! Went for a Christmas meal with a few friends. Food was brilliant, great portions, amazing value. Great range of beers. Very friendly and helpful staff. Highly recommend.

Great food, lovely atmosphere and attentive and friendly staff.

Went for the mid-week carvery. Exceptional value for money and good beer

So relaxing. Had a two course meal and was lovely, didn't feel rushed and lovely atmosphere

Nice food quite packed on the day we went . Good surrounding. Good service would eat there again.

Great menu and price carvery was delicious

What a lovely afternoon we had..senior citizens 3 course lunch..amazing value and tasted lovely too..then to top it off sing song with an amazing singer..such a lovely place to go..friendly and we managed .

I ate here yesterday with 2 other people we all had The Carvery with dessert. The roast was fabulous. Very tasty, piping hot and cooked to perfection. I rarely eat beef unless I cook it myself as I'm fussy how ever the beef I had yesterday was beautifully cooked and melted in the mouth. Thank you to all the staff for giving us a lovely meal, presented with great service!

Food was delicious hot and very tasty , the only problem we had was the service was a little slow ,maybe not enough staff for the amount of customers , but we would go back again ,

Lovely friendly family pub .great carvery .and attentive staff

We held a suprise party for my parents on a Saturday night absolutely brilliant from start to finish! Lovely food and fab DJ, decent beer and good prices too! was all so easy to organise and deal with and all the staff were 5⭐ wouldn't hesitate to book another function here they have brilliant offers on just takes all the hassle out of it for you! Thank you 😍

Loved it meal was big and very hot will go again my friends enjoyed it to

Had a roast meat beautiful melted in mouth all fresh vegetables plus if wanted a nut roast us vegetable gravy or meat gravy plus a choice of puddings all hot 2 courses 1295 well worth it I recommend it x

Fantastic food,good size portions very pleasant staff, overall would recommend 👌

Faultless. Lovely food piping hot very reasonably priced. Thank you

Staff are super friendly and food fab. Made my birthday meal with family a great day. Thank you

Friendly lovely staff and great food

All the usual favourites on the menu here with an £8.99 for two courses offer on some selections. I had hunters chicken and a desert of 3 scoops of ice cream. The fries were delicious and a reasonable, lunchtime sized portion. The chicken was not so great, very small overcooked portion the sauce had baked onto the side of the dish and the whole thing had shrunk down into the bottom. Had difficulty working out where the bacon was, if there was any as the outer shell/skin was very hard and crispy and it all tasted the same. In retrospect I should have sent it back not least because another member of our group had the same order and hers looked better than mine. So maybe I just got the short straw but I didn't want to spoil a nice occasion by being picky. The ice cream was 'meh' rather frugal basic scoops with no embellishments. The venue is nice country pub style with a generous outside seating garden and children's play area. The staff were brisk but friendly and the food arrived as ordered in a timely fashion. I did think £4.50 for a large lime and lemonade was pricey. I probably wouldn't come back unless there were no other options, but as the dishes were inconsistent you might be luckier than me.

My wife and 3 friends went there on Tuesday afternoon. They enjoyed the food but have all been put off by the survey bar tender who short changed my wife by £3. When this was politely pointed out he simply re entered the till and handed over the correct change but with no apology or even saying anything. So ignorant.

Was ok not sure why the menu is different if you choose to sit out not sure I like the cardboard boxes and plastic cutlery but that's my personal view !

Food horrible..girls and the chief was polite an made u feel welcome.but wouldn't go again....
