Top Floor Cafe in Liverpool

Apparently the best museum in the north west is in Bolton. All I can say is that person never came here. This museum is head and shoulders above that one!

Really good museum with multiple sections and nicely organized artifacts

Great setting, aquarium and terracotta made in a way it is accessible and added value, recommended

Big place, plenty of things to see. Aquarium, bugs, dinosaurs, ancient Egypt and space exhibit to name a few. Free to enter the museum, certain things like the planetarium shows have a small charge. Tickets are purchased by the entrance.

Fantastic venue, easy access and so much to look at. The staff are very friendly and helpful. There are 5 floors of exhibits, with access via stairs or lifts. The onsite cafe is also great with a good selection of hot and cold food and drinks. A thoroughly enjoyable day out. Free entry, though I did give a well deserved contribution.

It is very beautiful and wonderful, worth a visit.

Fantastic museum and all the better for being free entry, highly recommended

Very informative and interesting

Very interesting and informative visit

Visited the World Museum. Will be honest. It's not as good as it used to be. There's not as many sealife creatures to explore. Some of the tanks are empty, They used to have the ants walking along the rope, which they no longer have. The large spider used to be on the ceiling above your head. Which is now situated on the wall above doorway. However, it's still worth a visit. Especially the mummy section. I never went to check out the science part was short for time. So can't comment. I never tried out the cafe so can't comment on the food. FREE ENTRY to museum. Donations greatly appreciated.

A great spot for families and especially young kids. Free entry with option for paid visit to the planet floor. There’s around 4-5 floors including the bee floor, dinosaurs and the aquarium which we really enjoyed. Toilets on every floor and a really fun experience over all would recommend everyone visit. Also good location and close to the park and other museums.

Great free exhibitions, well worth a visit to see the mummies

It's great for entertaining the kids during the holidays. I prefer quieter times, they do different displays, from Egypt to Bees, so it's well worth a visit Definately, but not during school term times. The cafe is not so great, when we visited it was a mess, with food everywhere, it looked like a tornado had whirled through, with bare shelves & chiller. Not a comfortable, nor very welcoming place! It is if your only wanting to grab & go. Not impressed tbh. But the museum itself & exhibits first rate!

Its completely amazing with artifacts covering whole world n ancient Egypt n also dino exhibit.

Lots to see and that it is free to enter

Well worth a visit, lots of see, especially educational aspect for children. We'll layed out, lovely building. Lovely cafeteria and food.

Fabulous artwork for you to admire, many floors to explore.

Lots to see lovely museum kids enjoyed themselves

Fantastic exhibitions, a must see when in Liverpool

Love Liverpool Museum fir the whole family. Cafe and disabled facilities, lifts and clean toilets available.

Interesting place. Unable to see the animals for lack of lights (many) and dust. Lovely food in the cafe

Top free place for adults and kids . This place as history related items, technology, art, aquarium. Top place

IT WAS FREE! AND ALL THE MUSEUMS ON THIS DAMN PLANET SHOULD BE!! we should have brought some notebooks to draw with. Which we certainly would have done if we had stayed long enough to return 😁 go back because it's free. All this knowledge and culture, accessible to everyone because entry is free, did I tell you entry was free? Several floors with lots of different exhibitions. I know thanks to this museum that this bastard Picasso, in addition to being a human shit towards women, literally sucked all African art. Thanks for that museum! I love to hate Picasso 😁 Possibility of bringing your own food, and eating on site in the spaces provided for! what's cool

Lovely place to visit. We did behind the scenes Aquarium tour. Very interesting. Young lady taking us round was very friendly and knowledgeable. Really enjoyed it.

A Must-Visit for Curious Minds! This museum is an exciting place to bring kids and explore how the world works. It offers a fascinating journey through history, covering the entire world’s past. The best way to experience it is by starting on the top floor and working your way down, allowing the story of humanity to unfold naturally. It's an engaging and educational space that makes learning fun. Absolutely love this place!

Lovely museum.. Always something new to explore around 👌

I park there to meet my son sometimes. Usually not for long, a few mins. Today, I paid to park for 30 mins @ £3. It should've been...dyu know what? Just don't park n pay there. And if you're going into the museum, you'll need a mortgage!

wonderful place to be with the kids. the place is not overwhelmingly big and the kids didn't complain about being tired. spent around 2 snd half hours inside. parking outside and no queue when we went on the weekend.

What an absolutely brilliant place this is! Honestly, it's a must visit attraction in Liverpool and really is worth going out of your way to visit. The aquarium was very good, as was the bugs exhibition yet then Egyptian Gallery was just spectacular. All for free as well. Get yourself there please! You won't regret it.

*free* entry apart from the doctor who area , though everything else was really interesting! multiple floors with different types of topics like dinosaurs, space, and even a aquarium! there is a gift shop and cafe on the left side of the museum, and the stairs and elevators are on the right. lots of toilets; some can be found of the floors. there are also real taxidermy, bugs and mummies. very good place to spend time at!

I was fascinated by your library with its excellent sound architecture

Good behind the scenes tour about the fish & other water animals very interesting 👍

Excellent museum in a gorgeous building. The Bee exhibit is a must see and the cafe has some delicious food.

I have got great memories of the place in childhood with me an dad

A really enjoyable and interesting visit. The planetarium was amazing, and we spent a long time wandering round the 5 levels.

Brilliant. We only had a spare hour but could have easily spent the day there definitely worth checking out. It is free however you can offer a £5 donation which is so worth it for the exhibitions and items you get to see a real fabulous / educational place ❤️

All you can say is this. You could spend all day in there. Fantastic

Had a fabulous few hours in this free to enter museum. Very helpful staff on the desk who were able to answer any questions/direct me around (suggesting starting from the top floor). Plenty to see, and so interesting. Started at the top in the Space & Time area, fascinated by the Egyptian exhibition, something for everyone (check website)! Suggested donating of £5 is well-worth paying to keep this museum going for all.

Very cool bee exhibition! For everyone and all senses.

Great food for the price, incredibly educational displays for free entry! We paid for a behind the scenes tour of the aquarium which was well worth it at £5 per person. Highly recommend.

One of the two lifts was out of order when we went. So a bit chaotic. Plenty to do and see in there. Well worth a visit.

It was a pleasant visit. Having been to Egypt museums, the mummy exhibit is well represented and we liked the presentations.

a lovely way to spend an hour or two, some areas are definitely marketed more towards children and some are more towards adults, but i loved the hands on approach to the fossils.

There is so much to see! We opted not to purchase tickets to any of the special exhibits, and wore ourselves out seeing all of the regular ones. There's the ocean, different world cultures, Egyptology, natural history, and much more. Plus, they have a very nice cafe. This is a not to be missed museum when in Liverpool.

Great museum!! Food is great in the cafe. Well worth a visit.

It was a quick visit and I visited just the aquarium. It was quite a small exhibition but engaging. There are, however, four more floors with a lot more to see, which is likely to make any trip worthwhile. Great location and free..

A definate place you'll need to visit if you like museums. Especially as it's totally free to get in, there are a few donation boxes dotted around, which we used. All 5 floors can be easily accessed via lifts and stairs. I went with the wife and grandkids and we all thoroughly enjoyed our time here. There was so much to see and do here that time ticked by without us noticing. The cafe was a little on the pricey side but seeing as we didn't pay to get in it seemed fair. There was also a picnic area ( a room with tables and chairs) for the frugal amongst us

Brilliant museum, would highly recommend. Especially loved the Egyptian part in the museum

Free museum with aquarium, dinosaurs, space, bugs. Everything children love.

Busy on weekends with lots of kids, lots to see. The Egyptian rooms are very good

Wonderful place to visit in Liverpool, so organised and so informative. Separate floors for each department. There is plenty of space to handle a big crowd. Separate space for buggy parking. Loved it. The ground floor cafe to have a break and dine. The entrance is free

Excellent museum for children. Especially the space gallery with Tim Peak. Well worth a visit.

Great place ( free ) to take the Kids 5 floors of exibits , Loved the Egyptian floor ,lifrs shop and Cafe ,loved it

Such a fascinating museum. It’s got something for everyone! From the planetarium to the aquarium to the dinosaurs. It really is an Incredible Museum

Amazing museum. So much to see and do

This place is incredible and would highly recommend everyone visit at some point. We spent 4 whole hours exploring the exhibitions which include an aquarium which is free and a planetarium which you do have to pay for but is really cheap and a great experience. Completely wheelchair accessible and a few parking spaces available right outside the museum entrance. All the staff were really polite and helpful. Well done everyone at the museum and we'll done Liverpool

Very nice and organized, I liked it

Called in for a meal pre theatre. A very busy restaurant/cafe in a lovely setting. Clean and bright in the main room, clean and atmospheric in the adjacent space. Fab staff!

What a great day!! Staff were extremely helpful and friendly, cafe decently priced. No entrance fee, a five pound donation recommended. Well worth it. One exhibition you paid for and there was a charge to watch the film in planetarium. The venue and the exhibits were fantastic spread over 5 floors. Each one totally engrossing. Would definitely recommend (i took my 5 year old granddaughter) Enjoy!!

I highly recommend the bee exhibition while they still have it, it's very very good.

Free entry. Accessibility is truly guaranteed for everyone. We visited a very interesting and well done exhibition on bees (for a fee). Absolutely recommended. The staff is extremely competent and kind.

Arrived there at 4.15 and unfortunately didn't get to see it all. Nevertheless the staff didn't rush me out and I wish I would be able to return there one day and spend way more time exploring. The lady I approached on the stairs with ease explained what is awaiting me on each floor and not sure how she scanned me but straight away said- third floor Egypt! I could not believe the amount of artifacts and mummies this place collected. The only downfall was children running around and shouting but I suppose the parents and children were already tired. It is the right place to teach respect for the dead though. Apart from that it is the place I would love to return for definite! Hopefully nt as a mummy though lol

Great museum, lots to see, i really enjoyed the Egyptians exibit it was very interesting.

Great museum and Great too see 👀🔥

Great experience and planetarium well worth going to, me and my partner had a great time spent many hour there today. However some exhibits need some TLC, Some interactive area no longer interactive. But overall great !

As always, it was an amazing experience throughout.

Can't believe all this was free. Plus the picnic area. Brilliant!

Very beautiful, easy to travel in the middle of the city, good very good

So much to see! The Egyptian mummies were superb!

It is always a pleasure to return here.. I think it was the 10th time i visited the museum. When you have friends coming over to Liverpool, this is the place you shouldnt miss

You have to go there, so many things to see , lovely staff x

Very nice place to visit with children

My visit to the World Museum in Liverpool with my family was a truly memorable experience. The museum offers free entry, which is a fantastic bonus for families looking for an educational and fun outing without breaking the bank. The museum's exhibits are diverse and captivating, catering to all ages and interests. From ancient artifacts to interactive displays, there is something for everyone to enjoy and learn from. The kids were particularly fascinated by the dinosaur skeletons and the planetarium shows, which added an extra layer of excitement to our visit. You'd have to pay for the shows. Accessibility was also a major plus, with ample off-street paid parking conveniently located next to the building. This made our visit hassle-free and allowed us to spend more time exploring the museum's treasures. Overall, I highly recommend the World Museum in Liverpool for a family day out. It's an enriching and enjoyable experience that offers something for everyone. We can't wait to visit again!

Amazing displays, went through all of them (spent around 2 hours here, but you can be here all day exploring😄), we went on Saturday right as the museum opened so there wasn’t a lot people yet and it was as overwhelming. We enjoyed the science displays of geology and zoology but also the Egyptian mummy display was very interesting. Also the location is nice nearby is small park with memorial and next door is art gallery also worth to see.

One of the best museums my wife and I have visited. Quite busy, but that's probably because it was half-term for the local schools

Alot of ehibits and displays need updating in my opinion as they are tired and worn. Of course there's educational value here. But if you want to know why certain fish apparently resemble the LGBT+ flag you can find that here too. I mean come on, clutching at straws here aren't you? Gets extremely busy and maybe they should limit visitor numbers for safety reasons.

Went to the Japanise art of animals and nature and it was fantastic. The was also a talk and hands on exhibit by one of the education team of a samori warrior which was extremely interesting.the staff member was very k nowledgeable Well done!!

I haven't been in ten years an it hasn't changed. Only thing I enjoyed was the mummy's

We come here a lot with our 5 and 7 year old over the years. It's free. Lots to do. This year we went to the bee instalation and omg, sooooo good. Great for our age children. Very sensory.

Great exhibits, just feels quite small

We couldn’t see everything there was to see in two visits over two days; there is just so much. A wonderful member of staff was so patient with my daughter who questioned him on rocks and fossils for 20 minutes and even gave her a sticker for her efforts! The layout of spacious and the exhibits are well thought out. There is a whole exhibition dedicated to the question of who owns history, and the museum embraces the complexity of the colonial history of Liverpool. We were blown away and will be back. Shout out to the curators for exhibitions that work at child and adult level, and architects for the superb building layout. Wonderful place.

Absolute gem of a museum. Well appointed and enjoyed by the kids.

Amazing place to visit - bee exhibit brill but charge seems excessive £10/adult

Good collection especially of world cultures.

Free to visit. Lots of reading to go with the exhibits. Lots of steps to the 5th floor. One lift- stops at every floor so quite slow but appears wheelchair/pushchair friendly. Impressive building with a small amount of payable parking outside.

Very good general museum. I think I would've liked it more if they focused on one thing only (as in focus on only natural history for example) but the experience is still really nice.

There is so much to see and do here. I visited the bee exhibition, and it completely blew my mind! It was such a great experience, and I'll be on the lookout for more exhibitions over the coming months.

Definitely worth the trip especially as it's a free museum apart from parking fees. So much to see with many areas and levels, our favorite is the Egyptian area with the mummies. There is lift access to every floor and easy wheelchair access as well as a car park right outside the building which you will need coins/cash for the parking machines. There is a canteen inside so you can buy hot food and drinks from. Highly recommend this place as a must see, the kids and adults alike will all love it it's a great day out for all the family.

What an amazing place! A must visit.

Went in half term so it was really busy. Went in the cafe and queued for about half an hour to get food which was ridiculous. Other than that museum was great! Lots of exhibits and fun for the kids. Highly recommend the planetarium aswell. Staff were polite and friendly. Lockers were spacious enough for our case aswell which was brilliant.

Great place for adults and kids .my 5 year old enjoyed it

Nice museum Shame about the long waiting times at the cafe during half term. More staff to cope with busy times required during peak times would help with the painful wait. Picnic areas rammed and busy today

Personally I was disappointed with the bee exhibition. Maybe because I'd been a bee keeper. I didn't get much connection with the art side either. The children were enjoying it

Great museum for children, lots to see and learn. Would highly recommend.

The World Museum in Liverpool is a true gem for lovers of science and culture. Its rich collections, interactive exhibits, and diverse attractions make a visit to this museum an unforgettable journey through the history of the Earth and the achievements of humankind. It's an ideal place for people of all ages who want to broaden their knowledge and spend time in an inspiring way. 😍

Very interesting museum. Easy to explore on different levels. Disabled access & child friendly if required. Nice coffee shop too!

Interesting day out. Main event being the planetarium. Definitely worth a visit

The Egyptian area is what we go to see. My daughter is obsessed with Egyptians.

Difficult to find the entrance but that's more of a "you problem" depending on from where in Liverpool your coming from

Great place to visit if you go by train it's in Liverpool
