My grandson and I were visiting from Ireland and stopped in for food. There was a great selection and everything was reasonably priced. The food came out quick and was piping hot. On our next trip to Liverpool we will definitely return.

Great freshly cooked food served by polite staff who treat you as their guests. Nothing was too much trouble. Able to enjoy our monthly visit for Lunch in a pleasant environment knowing that we would have an enjoyable visit again. Food served in an acceptable time and was piping hot. Try the Fish & Chips. You wont be dissappointed!

Great staff Always helpful. Will Indicate if there is a wait for food. Easy to reserve a table… i recommend you do this before you visit to guarantee yourself a seat as this is a very popular venue

We often go to the Turnpike for family meals as the food is always good and they have a great selection to suit all tastes. We came in on friday for my anniversary and it was heaving but the manager with long hair was able to get us a table. The sirloin steaks came out sizzling and cooked to a true medium rare.

We went out with friends, there were 5 of us in total, when we were at the bar we were asked if we had booked a table to which we said no, we did not think you had to book a table and had never had to do this on all the previous times we had been there. We were then informed we could not order food as the quiz was on and all the tables were booked up! We explained there were 5 of us who on average with food and drinks would be spending about £25 each, the person in charge was not bothered and told us we could sit at a table but we had to leave the table by a certain time. I cannot believe we were treated so badly and the pub would rather earn a few quid from quizzers rather than £125 approx from people wanting to eat and drink. The manager/staff member was not helpful at all and I think we were treated awfully.

Myself and my boyfriend went to visit some of our friends and when they brought us here at first I was reluctant; I'm not a fan of pub food. That was until I had the infamous stake here, now I'm a fan. The manager (Michael, I believe he's name was) was so welcoming and check on us and our meal which was great as he did this all of his customers and didn't forget one. That's the kind of care I want when I walk into anywhere, I would differently come again! Great food, quick service and lovely atmosphere. All the staff were super friendly. This is overall great place to spend time with friends, family and loved ones!!!!

I've been quite often, it’s a shame that the previous manager Mike left but i have to say that since the new manager Mike (confusing i know) took over the atmosphere and quality of the food and drinks have continued to impress and he’s doing a fantastic job. The pub is clean and appealing and the staff always make me feel welcome when i pop in whether it’s for a meal or just a quick drink after work. I would definitely recommend.

This review is a long time coming as myself, hubby and friends are regulars here. We mainly come at weekends for dinner, but have been plenty of others times for breakfast. Michael the current Manager and his team do an excellent job to ensure that all their customers feel valued and are provided for. It's always a pleasure on rare occasion to see Michael mingle with patrons to check how their meal is or if they want any more drinks, or just to say hello. I've always found Michael and the team at the Turnpike to be pleasant serving, polite and courteous. You can tell that the staff enjoy working there and this must be because of Michael's excellent mangement of staff. It's a pleasure for us as customers to see how happy team are to be there, which is why we keep returning. Its important to have a great manager. The kitchen team are also wonderful and work hard to get meals served in a timely manner. We love coming here. The atmosphere is always vibrant and Michael goes the extra mile to serve his customers because he's great at what he does and always has a friendly smile. Thank you Michael, I hope you're here to stay. Dorothy & Tony & Co.

Absolutely awful. Over the last 2 years we’ve been here for food about 5 times, each time the food gets worse and worse. Went Thursday 30th June. Waited an hour for food due to it being busy which is understandable. Steak come and was like chewing jack sparrows boots!! Always a long wait for dunks at the bar absolute waste of £50

Came in with the family for tea, 3 out of 4 meals requested were not available. Which was a surprise, but then at 6 pm on a Saturday night when they claim to serve food till 10pm they said they had no salad or no chicken!! Unbelievable!!!I spoke to the manager who had no interest in customer service or trying to understand the principles of supply and demand with feeble excuses of being busy. He then walked away without trying to resolve my complaints or bothering with my feedback. Having been here many times before was very disappointed at the poor service and lack of consideration today.

Waitress informed us they didn't have any salad (Saturday afternoon!) so we said we would have the jackets anyway, but could they knock something off the price? Waitress refused saying the salad was free anyway. Otherwise clean eating area. Toilets clean, but 2x Hand dryers didn't work. More a pub than a restaurant

When we visit Liverpool we do try other places to eat but always end up comparing them to the Turnpike. The staff are first class, the food is amazing and the prices are very reasonable. We had dinner and went back in the morning for the enormous breakfast - well, it would be rude to expect our daughter to cook! Can't wait to go back again :P

Visited with my 11 year old for a quick bite to eat in the school holidays. Was really busy so I did expect a wait and to be fair I didn’t wait as long as expected. That was the good point, unfortunately it went downhill from there once the food arrived. I ordered the lasagne and I have no idea what I was served as whilst it looked like lasagne I am unable to describe what it tasted like. It came with a side salad which consisted of one cut into quarters tomato. A couple of tiny slithers of pepper and a plate of shredded iceberg lettuce. Our mains were cleared and after half an hour my child’s dessert hadn’t appeared so I went to the bar to ask could they bring it out. After another 20 minutes nothing arrived so I went back to the bar again where I was asked had I already ordered it (wouldn’t be waiting almost an hour for something I’d not ordered now would I love). I was then quizzed over who I’d asked 20 minutes prior and then told my ice cream was on its way. I hadn’t ordered ice cream, I’d ordered sticky toffee pudding and custard. The ice cream was then brought out and I again told them that is not what I ordered. My order was then checked on the till which is when they confirmed oh yes you didn’t order ice cream, we’re really sorry, your orders been mixed up. After another ten minutes the sticky toffee pudding turned up and well let’s just say I wish I’d have ordered the ice cream after all. I’ve never tasted a sticky toffee pudding like it in my life. It was hard, it was tasteless, it was absolutely tiny and possibly the worst I’ve ever had. I would avoid eating here, even my 11 year old said he wouldn’t go again. For nice food and lovely service try the Derby Lodge round the corner as there is no comparison between the two. The Turnpike used to be a great pub with lovely food but since the most recent takeover it really has gone downhill.

familia de 3 llegó sobre 4. 30 pm hoy. bastantes mesas vacías para elegir, ninguna de ellas limpia, pero de todos modos pensamos que al menos no estaríamos esperando mucho tiempo para comer. mala suposición de haber hecho. Esperé casi una hora y bueno, ¿qué puedo decir? tuve lasaña, era horrible, una ensalada pequeña consistía en unos trozos de lechuga rallados muy secos, unos 3 trozos de pimienta y una décima parte de un tomate, patatas fritas y duras, medio cocidas. El gammon de mi marido no está tan mal, pero los guisantes les gustan los pellets y son muy secos y también con chips fríos, duros y medio cocidos. la tercera comida también con chips que podrían haber sido utilizados como misiles. Tengo que decir que tuve que ir a la cama tan pronto como llegué a casa y tomé un poco de peptobismal, me sentí como si hubiera comido cemento. Dejamos la mayor parte y la señora siguió preguntando si habíamos terminado para poder recoger los platos. Seguimos repitiendo que habíamos terminado, ya que no podíamos comer más, eventualmente ella tomó los platos. Hay tanta competencia, ¿por qué alguien aguantaría esto? nunca más

Been here a few times and always been made to feel very welcome, good for watching the match when they put the big screen down. Food is always nice too, busy little pub.

Visited this pub today and although Is was very busy the staff were brilliant and gave the best service they could. Great friendly atmosphere when you go in too. Food was served nice and hot and we didn’t even have to wait long either. Defiantly be visiting again.

I enjoyed afternoon lunch at the Turnpike Tavern with my family. Always a great experience. Highly recommended. I like to visit as often as I can.

The food was awful. The tables were very dirty and sticky as was the floor. It does not have a lot to recommend it sorry to say.

Firstly I’d like to say that the reviewer who posted last with an awful review, I was sat on number 2 near your table with my partner and baby and heard your witch hunt! You were rude to the bar man by clicking your fingers at him etc. We ordered our meals about the same time, I had steak the same as you, my partner SFC and both were delicious we left nothing on our plates. The pub wasn’t cold I’d even taken my coat off and the bar man was in a black short sleeved shirt! We eat at the Pear Tree often and everything is as it should be.

Intenté entrar a Bistro pero estaba completamente lleno, así que subí al bar, muy agradable, cómodo pero bastante caro. Los bocadillos de bar son muy decepcionantes, solo un tubo de patatas fritas donde siento que podrían ofrecer una mejor variedad y comida de más sustancia que las patatas fritas.

The staff were rude, the drinks are expensive, the toilets had no loo role and there was White powder on the side, the vent above was full of dust, we were put in the so called VIP section a tiny room the back of the seating area fell off and the music was way too loud, would never return there are many great bars in Liverpool this is not one
