Don't get me wrong, the food was actually pretty great! Staff was friendly! But... I didn't think…read moreI'd spend an hour and a half of my day there. I did have to wait for a table for a bit which accounts for some of that time, but I would say I was generally surprised with the speed of service. Might've just caught them in a bad day. The place seemed popular and all the food leaving the kitchen did look delicious! I got the Bangers and Hash and apparently the photo I took didn't save :'( The portions on it were good. Potatoes, sausages, egg, and Hollandaise. Good meal to give you energy for the day.

Leaf is a beloved Liverpool institution and was one long before Bold Street cleaned up its act,…read moreMowgli moved in, and it became the hipster restaurant mecca it is today. I knew it initially as the upstairs was a venue for Liverpool Sound City, back when it took place primarily in the Ropewalks area. I've eaten there, I've taken tea there, I've had drinks there with my friends. The staff are great and the patrons often even more so: if Liverpudlians hear a non-Scouse accent here, anticipate their desire to start a conversation and help a visitor out. Choose a place to sit, order at the bar and tell the staff where you're sitting, and wait for your order to appear, delivered by someone with an adorable Scouse accent. The food portions tend to be pretty big: you're in the North, lads and lasses. The more you talk to English people of a certain age, and even a wider swath of ages the further north you go, the more you come to realize just how important the ritual of tea drinking is to them. The illuminated sign "Where there's tea, there's hope" in the shop isn't a joke. When you're at the bar, you'll see the coffee machine, sure, but you'll also see the many canisters of tea on offer. Tea here comes in individual see-through pots, showing Leaf's modern edge on a long-standing English/British tradition. You simply must order tea here because you're totally missing out if you don't. It's called Leaf for a reason! There is a small alcove 'shop' adjacent to the bar where you can pick up tea bags, diffusers, and the like. It gets very busy at lunch and brunch times; pack patience. There's a weird quirk about the front door: you need to push it because it opens inward, which seems odd because it's a really big glass door and oftentimes shop doors in England open outward. Also, you need to serve yourself water from the dispenser at the bar, something I always seem to forget until a staff member taking my order sets me right. A Manchester outpost of Leaf now exists, but I can't imagine it would ever compare favorably to the original location. I miss the pescetarian full breakfast and while they've now got small plate options, this is the kind of place I'd always order one big dish for either lunch or dinner. You'll be glad you did.

I can't get enough of leaf. Food and service are always top notch. Nice vibe and plenty of seating…read more Good for groups also.

I have been to barley and bean a few times and i find it to be fairly hit and miss…read more The exterior is pleasant, good signage and is nice and clean. The interior is clean and spacious though i feel the tables could be bigger as there is a menu, a big salt and pepper and a menu holder on the table, it gets kinda cramped when you add food and a drink! I have previously tried the full english twice, the bacon and poached eggs once and the bacon on toast once, i have had the netulla milkshake, fresh orange juice and cappachino. full english I fond this to be tastey with plently of food, though i have been very disappointed twice with how greasy the food is and the pool of grease left on the plate after you finnish the food, the first time i tired this i did mention it to the staff which their response was "ots just juice from the mushroom" it was not it was grease, i thought i would give it another go the next time and this time they had changed the large mushroom to a pile of small button mushrooms but yet the food still very greasy and still leaving a puddle! I would not recommend! the bacon and poached eggs This was nice! Could have been more bacon on the plate, the butter in the toast tasted great and very creamy, cooked well and tasted good! bacon on toast Again could have been more bacon but still tasty! nutella milk shake Very moreish the bottle in which it is served is very small could be bigger, i want moreee lol cappachino Average in taste but did like the personalised roasting topping using the company logo. Fresh Orange juice Tasted very fresh indeed nice touch with the little bit of actual orange on the class and the ice! Very refreshing I give this a good three stars, could have been four if the didn't make it so greasy twice!

The Food was amazing vaule for money, My friend and I order Afternoon tea and was not disappointed it only cost £12.50 and cane with cocktails and came which fruit bored and dipping chocolate as well as the basic afternoon tea menu. The Brink is a non-alcoholic establishment this does not stop them from delivering fresh and flavoursome cocktails which I must recommend too all who visit. The wide selection of cakes and sandwiches available made is really enjoyable and never done to the pallet the presentation of all the Platters was superb and seem to follow a set theme the overall experience of the afternoon tea was really enjoy your love and great value for money. Overall The Brink is an amazing establishment with great value for money, the food is made fresh to order and the willingness of the staff to proved great service really does make this a nice place to eat and I strongly suggest visiting this place.

Shiraz Café, on Williamson Square serves a pretty good serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. One of…read moretheir current offers is a big English breakfast at £3.99. Far too much for me when I was there that day, all I could manage was tea and toast, which was quite unlike me. But for those who have a big appetite in the morning, the big breakfast looked good! Main meals include burgers, kebas, chicken and pizza which you can eat in or take away. Shiraz is always pretty busy which speaks for itself. You won't miss Shiraz when you walk along Williamson Square, as the sign has a big orange/brown background with black writing. Thinking about similar cafés in Liverpool, I think Shiraz does a pretty good job.

During our recent stay in Liverpool, we found Moose nearby (thanks to Yelp)! We were craving some…read morecoffee and brunch before the busy day we had ahead, and this spot delivered. From what we learned, Moose is a small chain around the UK, and known for its hearty North American-inspired menu. Definitely true - the menu had plenty of US classics like benedicts, pancakes, waffles, and hash dishes. I was actually surprised by how many things were available, as the cafe itself wasn't all that big. Small enough even that we couldn't even get a seat inside! No problem at all though, as we were instead able to sit in their outside area which lined a cute cobblestone alley, adjacent to some shops. I've said it before, and I'll say it again for the typical American traveler... in England, do NOT expect service to be what you're used to. You'll certainly wait to be tended too, and the visits from a server are very limited. In no way do I mean this as a complaint, it's actually kind of nice to not feel rushed and practice patience :) All in all, the staff who did take care of us were very sweet! My husband had an americano and I enjoyed my flat white (I swear I've loved every coffee I've ever had during England trips). For food I got the lula puebla, which was a fancy avo toast. The smashed avocado was fresh and well-seasoned, and the toasted sourdough it was smeared across was so thick and delicious. Even more delicious was the chipotle chilli jam that came atop of it. It also had feta, chilli flakes, and two poached eggs. I was definitely a fan! My husband also really liked his eggs benedict that included griddled Serrano ham. I know, I know, travel all this way only to have a US-style breakfast but hey it did the trick! Wouldn't hesitate to pop in another Moose location in the future.

We both had the Traditional Breakfast with smashed avocado added and while it was tasty, it was almost cold. Same with the coffees, both tepid as soon as they were delivered.

The waitress was lovely and very accommodating, but we headed off to a different cafe for our second coffee as we wanted a hot coffee.

Right downtown Liverpool, near just about everything, and just a few blocks from River Mersey. We walked here after the actual wedding down the street at City Hall, which was perfect. I learned while there that this building is a former bank. It's since been polished with fresh flooring, pendant lights, light paint colors and an overall airy-feel. Even after all of the wedding reception dinner tables were put out, there was still plenty of space to hang out and mingle. Off to the far-side is a full service bar as well, and let me tell ya they make dang good espresso martinis (which I needed for the jet lag)! You'll find bathrooms tucked downstairs and they are oh so cute, with fun and colorful decor. You can tell photo-ops happen there :) But the real treat of it all is the rooftop with stunning view of River Mersey and the city skyline. Sounds like they do afternoon tea (how English of them, lol!) and plenty of other events here too!

Oh Me Oh My - you guys, this place. I'd move to Liverpool just for this place…read more On our last day, only an hour or two before heading to the airport, we figured we had to end our little trip with a typical British Afternoon Tea. Something that had been on my wish list for years, and Oh Me Oh My seemed to be the best spot. With teas from Liverpool-based Leaf and the pretty atmosphere we already experienced when being in the building the day before, this was a definite hit. We payed £ 16 p.p. for afternoon tea, with as much different tea as we wanted and lots of different tasty goods - both sweet and salty. It's also possible to add prosecco for I thought £ 4. What we ate? Sandwiches (with hummus - instead of salmon, egg and cream cheese), toast, scones with jam and clotted cream, brownie, lemon cake and crème brûlée with shortbread. More than enough for a proper lunch - we enjoyed every single bit, but absolutely had enough. Oh Me Oh My - the perfect afternoon tea (or lunch)-place.
