The best restaurants serving British food in North West

We’ve been here before twice for lunch but delighted to see they were open for a festive dinner midweek on run up to Christmas. What an absolute treat! The best cauli steak I’ve ever had! The melt in the middle pud was just amazing. These guys deserve a Michelin star in my humble opinion. The staff are always so accommodating and professional. Our friends had wanted to eat here for a while, so it was good to be able to bring them. Great start to the festive period!

Amazing atmosphere wonderful service and delicious food the employees were so attentive and smiling had am amazing time and would definitely come back

We have been on previously and the food and service is superb. Great value and will go again. The soup was a lovely carrot and coriander. The turkey was cooked to perfection and the gravy is sublime. The cheeseboard was huge with a good selection and finally the mince pies were warm homemade delights. Six of us went and all loved every aspect of it.

Don’t even bother to try and get through to book a table. No one ever answers or responds to emails. Incredibly poor communication systems

We loved this place! Excellent range of hot and cold lunch choices and an equally good selection of cheeses. Staff were friendly and helpful- and it was easy to choose really healthy local produce if you wanted to.

Absolutely outstanding amazing food - exceptional! I really cannot praise Scholars enough for the very high standard of food and the presentation was really amazing - definitely Michelin Star standard. Thank you too to Karen and the students for a very good service - you were all really attentive to our needs and so friendly. I will definitely be booking Scholars again for our team Christmas lunch and also as many lunches as possible in between.

Popped in here for lunch after visiting Cathedral Cave, so glad we did, everything was fantastic and the staff were amazing. Highly recommended to anyone who's in the area.

Jon was incredibly accommodating for a large booking, a lot more so than other places I had enquired with. The Butchers did not disappoint, the staff were friendly and the food was incredible, everyone in our party said how good it was. This place is definitely worth a visit. Thank you so much!

Birthday present excellent vegetarian Sunday lunch. Food fantastic and great beer selection. The staff were very pleasant and attentive.

Qué pérdida que no he visitado este bistró antes. la comida, el servicio, etc es único y merece 5 estrellas. Como podrán apreciar en Liverpool estamos mimados con muchos restaurantes pero a muchos les falta ese ambiente personal Soy quisquillosa y sin intención perfeccionista a la hora de comer fuera pero esta noche he encontrado uno de los mejores. Sinceramente si no lo has probado reserva calidad, servicio y el ambiente acogedor no te decepcionará 👏

Great dog friendly place for a quick coffee and cake! We were struggling to find an appealing place for a quick cuppa when we came across Graze and we were not disappointed. And we saw the food being freshly prepared and brought out for other customers and wished we had more time for lunch. We will definitely remember for our next trip to the area.

Simply superb afternoon tea in elegant surroundings, with friendly service. Lovely “extras” - book in and find out what they are! Highly recommend this tea.

Was in the area for the first time and stopped in. Me, my mum and her old friends who were visiting from over seas all were blown away by the warm atmosphere and beautiful views of the park all around. The restaurant is beautiful, and the staff were so friendly and polite. We stopped for a coffee and ended up staying for lunch! Couldn’t resist after seeing what was coming from the kitchen! If you’re ever in the area I couldn’t recommend this place enough - food was delicious, menu has great options and the service was excellent. And a kind thank you to the lovely welsh woman who served us, we felt very looked after. PS - the loos were also spick and span !😊

Had Christmas Dinner away from home for the first time ever and went to The Patten Arms and what a wonderful experience. The atmosphere was lovely and cosy and the food was delicious and plentiful (even brought some home with us). We had a couple of slight changes to the menu, but Matt the chef accommodated us on every one. Thoroughly recommend and hoping to go back next year, although will definitely be going at other times during the coming year.

Fancied lunch that wasn't Spoons, and St Helens town isn't known for having a good selection of places to eat at lunch. I'd been here before when it was Vigor. A quick Google told me it was open for lunch so off we went. The food and service were perfect and reasonably priced for the quality. St Helens needs more places like this but we've definitely found our go to place for a nice lunch out.
