The best restaurants serving British food in Rainford St. Helens North West

We loved the food but the chips were to pale and tasted a bit fatty

We’ve been dining at The Star Inn for many years, and it never disappoints. The food is always delicious, and the service is consistently outstanding. On our latest visit, my husband and son had the fillet steaks, which were cooked to perfection. My daughter enjoyed the classic fish and chips, while I opted for the chicken curry. We couldn’t resist the chocolate fudge cake for dessert. It’s clear why this place has become a firm favourite for us. The Star Inn always delivers. Safe to say, we’ll be returning again and again!

Fab food, good menu, great service, the food was hot, tasty, good menu choice and specials, waitresses are always friendly, accommodating and efficient

very nice tearoom pleasantly decorated even though it was a wet weekday the place was still quite busy . the prices are about right. portions are also good , we had a combination of the tuna cheese ,bacon &cheese melts paninis and the dirty fires along with coffee and hot chocolate .the wait time was about right. all the meals where nicely resented and very good

We haven’t been here for a while … had a last minute late Sunday lunch. It was really lovely … piping hot, tender beef with lovely veg and roasties. Excellent service by Charlie … a star!!!! Thank you.

This pub is relaxing and welcoming. The food is excellent and varied. The staff are friendly and will give an opinion on the best on the menu. Our waitress Cerys is a friendly, pleasant and advised us on the main menu and dessert, especially the sticky toffee pudding. Well worth a visit

Had a lovely evening to celebrate 2 birthdays, the food was great and the staff were amazing the lady waiting on us was great couldn't do enough for us ,would highly recommend

Excellent farmhouse café, staff were friendly and went out of their way to be helpful, food was served fast, reasonably priced and good quality (we had the breakfast). Overall very enjoyable and impressive visit. Only 2 criticisms the first: the sachet condiments let you down as there not great quality and the second was the irritating 'elevator' music being played on repeat in the background, but not enough to detract a 5 star review.

The pub is great, one of regular places. The lamb henry is lovely Sunday dinner to very good Lasagna is good Roast beef baguette my hubby loves Fish and chips is huge. I have only had one slghtly off meal from here in mabey 50 meals it's just a great little pub... But the star of the show is the homemade chips

Not very impressed with the Barn today. They have really let it go. It opened at 10am, we got there at 10.30am. It was freezing!!! Warmer outside!!! Ordered 2x toasted tea cake and coffees. It was cold and over cooked, butter frozen. How can you mess such an easy order up??? ☹️ The toilet had a full bin, come on. 😱

Credit where credit is emphatically due! We popped in for breakfast the other morning, only to be met by what can only be described as a phalanx of the friendliest staff you could ever wish to encounter. And, my word, what a breakfast it was! A truly resplendent English spread, in a pub that exuded charm and individuality. None of this soulless, microwave 'ping' malarkey you get with the dreary chain establishments. No, no, this was the real McCoy—proper British hospitality, by Jove! An absolute triumph and a welcome respite from the mundane. Bravo!

We visited The Junction on 10/12/23 and were pleasantly surprised to find that it had upped its game!! The staff were pleasant, attentive and worked as a team - what a turn around since our last visit. Keep up the good work on the staffing front. The Sunday carvery was as delicious as ever.
