Restaurants à Crosby

What an interesting setting for afternoon tea. A friend and I arrived early, but we were able to be seated immediately. They checked our dietary requirements, brought out our tea selections (peach sangria is divine!) and soon the tiered cake stand arrived with a selection of sweet and savoury treats. Everything was delicious, especially the scones. It was a lovely birthday treat. The only issue was a lack of service staff, so it took ages to get a second pot of tea. Despite that, it was a fabulous afternoon tea. I loved the way industrial look of Stanley’s juxtaposed with the vintage style teapots and plates. Definitely recommend.

First visit & really impressed. Family friendly and dog friendly but noise levels very gentle. I'd asked about 2 for £50 offer in advance & even though that's usually a Thurs offer, I was told I could have it on a Saturday (we'd made an early dinner reservation). Staff & surroundings very warm and welcoming. Steak and huge pork chop were tender and perfectly cooked. Sides were fries, truffle fries & onion rings. All delicious, but we could have done with a veg option amongst the sides (a small salad would have been perfect with what we had to give a bit of freshness). Very minor niggle, we'll definitely go again. The small plates menu looked fab and excellent value at 3 for £17.50. Highlt recommend.

Two young staff had been left alone to cope with an overflowing pub of people watching the final match. There should have been another senior member of staff with them. That said the 2 young people were absolutely fantastic, polite, smiling despite not having a minute to catch their breath and coped brilliantly. But shame on the Manager for leaving them on one of the pubs busiest days of the year.

Excellent meal and staff very friendly
