Best Live Music Restaurants in St. Helens

Some of the best food I’ve ever eaten. We both ordered the ribs; they just fell apart, amazing flavours. Service was also great, lovely waiter who was patient (menu was so good it took us a while to order!) and attentive (recommending drinks, food). Can’t wait to come again, we had a fantastic experience.

Puffin Rooms is quite simply my favourite bar. The interior design is beautifully done, evocative of a stylish bygone era. The staff are warm and welcoming, and they provide the customer with engaging conversation. I love the fact that there are over two-hundred whiskies/whiskeys behind the bar, some of which have become personal favourites after trying them here. The Steak Diane I tried last night was delicious. The meat was tender, the sauce very flavoursome.

We are a family of four, including two boisterous children. The gentleman who served us absolutely “got the memo” that I needed to discreetly pick the most suitable table to ensure we didn’t disrupt other diners. He was excellent and understanding the boys’ need to be away from other customers and brought us kids menus. The menus seem “slim pickings” but we felt like we had a good selection for our picky kids and us being pescatarian. The cocktail menu was great and we enjoy a few of those. The kids had good sized portions or burger and chicken “nugget” and thick cut chips. We had a selection of veggie sharing plates. All of the food was so incredibly tasty and we felt really full despite the portion sizes looking quite small on arrival. We’d definitely like to return to have more of the menu. We’d just have appreciated a faster service because the kids were getting restless waiting for their puddings. Other than that, this is a very easy place to recommend to others!

We lunched with friends who had never been to Albert’s and they were amazed at the quality and value for money of the food. The drinks were equally good value …£8 for an Espresso Martini is brilliant. We asked to change tables and they did this for us and without fuss. Our server was friendly and very competent and the decor and ambience were first class. You have gained two new customers who no doubt tell their friends, As for us, Albert’s has never let us down.

Fantastic experience here. Great atmosphere! Had such a good time with great food and cocktails.
