The best restaurants in St. Helens North West

We went a few weeks ago for a coffee and there were plenty of staff and service appeared to be quick (and friendly). We went today for breakfast and had to wait an hour for our meal as there was only one bar staff and one cook. Natalie (the bar staff) was great and working hard to serve all the people as quickly as possible and the lone cook was working hard in difficult conditions. The breakfast was delicious. I believe more staff are returning from holiday etc. next week so I'm sure serving times will be significantly better.

Food was very good and reasonably priced. Service was good and staff very friendly. Have been back for takeaways on numerous occasions since.

Best sausage and egg butties in town ! Always quick and friendly service we would definitely recommend Mike’s it’s a must! Enjoy 😋

Lovely place to have a nice relaxed drink Always made very welcome when you come in here Cannot believe this place is shutting Ang and staff really look after the regulars in here

Under cooked pie and cold pasties one warm and hard one perfect service very slow baker to concerned with check list still produced under cooked pies

Orderd after we came back from a night out last night food arrived absolutely awful chicken was not cooked at all looks like it still had a pulse pizza was swimming in Grease 30 pound of food straight in the bin shocking avoid these at all costs complained to just eat they can not do anything either as we paid with cash again avoid this place

I popped in for dinner and had fish chips and mushy peas, best I’ve ever had. As I write this my mouth is watering, I was gonna treat mysen to a Sunday dinner at morrisons but it’s gonna be this place again, loads of peas and big thick cod!

Been going to keiths chippy for years and his meals are hard to beat,lovely food and reasonably priced, just a shame that the outside of the chippy doesn't match his food,looks abit run down which could put alot of people going to the place,as they say first impressions last.

Friendly staff. Lovely food freshly made daily on the premises. They are always open to new ideas for their menu.

Have always enjoyed this place until Saturday, very disappointed now the starter of Pork belly bites (around £8) was 3 very tiny pieces of pork with no crackling! it came with some leaves and i had to ask for the caramelized onion chutney that had been missed off! come the main I ordered the chicken and bacon ciabatta which was quite a large ciabatta with 1 tiny piece of streaky bacon and 3 pieces of chicken that barely covered 1/2 of the ciabatta! When i pointed this out to the waiter even he was aghast at the sandwich and had it remade. This time it had about 3 pieces of bacon alot more chicken , tomato and lettuce. If you are going to charge the prices you do to try and skimp on the quality is a mistake! After being a regular for years now off my list

This place is a hidden gem. Really good lunch as a couple with daughter and son in law. Started either meat balls. Small portion of 4 that was nicely done. Blast of flavour from tomato based sauce. Wife had calamari which was excellent. Then for main I went for the special sea bass - gorgeous dish. Probably one of the favourite I’ve had in an Italian. Served with potato and veg. Daughter went for carbonara which was also excellent (I had the rest as a takeaway next day). Girls went for tiramisu as desert. Had a little which was tasty. Service friendly all the way through. Loved it.

Just visited here for my birthday, had such a wonderful time, food was incredible, staff were wonderful and will definitely be back soon as possible.As a surprise, they even did me an amazing dessert with a huge sparkler. Thanks guys 💜

Our favourite Indian restaurant of all time. Been coming for 18 years and the staff are all like family! Special shout out to Ryan and Mr Ali! As you'll see from my other reviews we eat A LOT of indian food but no matter where we go, nothing compares to the high quality dishes served here. I'd recommend to everyone.

Food is great but when you send somebody something they didn't order and refuse to either refund them or even change it after its not even been touched and trying to make you pay more for what you asked for after admitting they made the mistake is horrendous!

Great relaxed atmosphere with friendly staff
