The London Carriage Works in Liverpool

Food is good, yet ambition in the kitchen does not meet reality in front of house and service- the London Carriage Works presents itself as a fine dining restaurant yet there is a clear discrepancy with service levels offer vs its pairs in Liverpool & GB. Even on a not busy at all Monday, waiting was very long and attention to details quite low (no one asking to take away jackets at entrance or when sitting, waiting long for anything from order taking to food delivery to the table to bill delivery). This is a real pity as you can clearly perceive that kitchen is full of ambition and aspiring to greater recognition. Improving service will certainly enable better outcomes for the restaurant.

The staff were absolutely amazing and the setting is really lovely, however the food let me down quite a bit.We got the earth platter and aside from the houmous it was quite tasteless - the tempura broccoli and roasted cauliflower in particular had no flavour. They also missed the beetroot off the platter.I got the crispy mushroom ravioli for the main, I liked the filling of the ravioli but I found the outside of it quite tough and chewy and the rest of the dish tasteless again.Quite disappointing as it is expensive, I think the meat and fish eaters did enjoy the food a lot more though. The house white wine was lovely and the staff and setting still made it a very enjoyable visit but I probably wouldn’t be back.

Very Poor service in restràunt bar Area. I don't no who the manager is, but it's run diabolical.Young lads behind bar no skill almost mute like. Not focusing on customers sitting waiting for food have to ask for menus, get up and ask for service. ONE young lad looks dopted scraping his shoes dragging his feet no enthusiasm, had to ask twice for a knife..who is running that place it's a disgrace.

What an amazing place, the best in Liverpool so far. Staff are really friendly and the rooms are great. Cannot wait for our next visit to the Best City In The World.

Fine dining = small portions. Nice presentation, but main meal was really tiny. Lamb a bit tough too. Had to send the bill back on numerous occasions.

More often than not the London Carriage Works provides a superb dining experience. Excellent service is generally supported by superb food. The wine list is extensive with some outstanding wines on offer (expensive it has to be said). The bar offers a wide range of cocktails, beers and spirits and, in addition, bar snacks. Lovely peaceful atmosphere in the dining room.

For the average person... like me... this is more of a treat than just a meal out... but hey... it's worth it... treat yourself.. you can literally taste the care that has been taken... and the service was very friendly and very efficient. Book a table...GO... you deserve a treat.

Food was excellent, so we're all the staff, really nice place to go.

Excellent as always, delicious food,wonderful service and ambience.
