The Bastion Bar & Restaurant

visited today for the first time. lots of parking close by. excellent value afternoon tea, would go again and will recommend to others. thank you :)

Such good value, really tasty and a great gift! The restaurant is lovely, staff are friendly and helpful, live music a great touch. Highly recommend!

Very pleasant but very busy as there were 3 large hen parties in at the same time all having afternoon tea so staff were rushed off their feet , but still attentive. Sandwiches and cakes very nice. would go again.

good service, friendly staff, food is good value for money. Staff are mostly all young and inexperienced but overall the experience Is well worth the money.

We booked here to celebrate my boyfriends birthday as he is a huge Liverpool fan it was great the staff were amazing and the food was quality we loved the cocktails n the choice was amazing

A very pleasant meal, nice atmosphere and what I like was not hurried at all. All in all very good evening celebrating my brothers 60th birthday. Would visit again. YNWA

Food was great, good variety of choice and reasonable price. However, service was lacking initially when we had to wait a while for our drinks, the restaurant was also rather noisy.

Wonderful service and the food was beautiful. The memorabilia of the most brilliant football manager in the world is great. We will be visiting again.

Disgustingly long wait for food and staff with bad attitudes. Aggressive and and angry security who where looking for a fight. Never going to this dive again

this is an amazing hotel if you area a follower of Bill Shankly, or Liverpool Football Club or probably both. We went for afternoon tea and it was so lovely. One of the party was is a vegetarian and was very well catered for, she was well impressed. it is a very pleasant hotel, nothing is too much trouble for the staff, they made sure we were topped up regularly with fresh pots of tea and coffee. The icing on the cake for us all as we are Liverpool supporters was meeting Bill Shankly's grandson. He spent about 20 minutes with us posing for photos, so we ere all pretty happy when we left. Although it's a few days ago now I still smile at the memories.

Ive eaten at the Bastion manty times, but wasnt impressed on Father's Day, most of the food had run out, limited menu, slow service, items missing from meal, no free drink offered to Dad, disjointed service.

Spent over 3 hours in the restaurant due to being forgotten about. Although the food was lovely it was dampened by the service we received.

Great experience despite it being very busy. Bar man initially was a little rude but I put it down to him having a bad day as everyone else was happy!

Poor service, waitress messed order so my meal was after everybody else had eaten. Bill was £121 have £140 cash never seen her again so I take it no change then

Great atmosphere , easy access , excellent staff and service and food. Would certainly recommend to anyone The Bastion Bar & Restaurant, thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience.

Excellent for a Hen party, took care of us and made sure everyone was happy and had what they needed. Particularly dealt well with difficult dietary needs!

Nice meal waitress was very good but have to say expected more for the price we paid didn't feel like I was in a restaurant with all the tv's and thought it was very dark and drab depressing decor lots of women in hen nights and the singer on was quite good may call in for a drink again but not a meal as not a wood restaurant

Amazing food as always. My favourite restaurant to visit in the city. The food is always cooked to perfection and the service is always very friendly

Waiting on staff were very good but they were let down by the bar staff and the kitchen. We waited nearly 1 1/2 hrs for our food . We ordered drinks on arrival but only received half of them after about 30 mins and had to ask for the rest. When some of our party went to the bar for extra drinks the barman seemed to ignore that they were waiting to be served. The management did reduce our bill and gave us a free bottle of prosecco which was much appreciated

High level prawns. Local staff. Interesting memorabilia. Nice atmosphere. Smart but not stuffy. Early bird menu is ridiculously good value for the quality. Try it.

Although the staff were lovely, food very disappointing. One dish had to be sent back, the two steak dishes were poorly presented and the lamb dishes were luke warm. Our friends were not impressed on this occasion after previous visits were excellent.

Great night watching the Champions League semi final. Great food and drink. Staff excellent- very attentive. We’ve already booked to watch the final in the Bastion.

Been here a couple of times food is nice but service can be hit and miss it’s great though the week but on weekends it’s pretty poor! Definitely need more staff

Superb food, wonderful atmosphere, friendly and attentive staff. If i come back to Liverpool i will book Shanklys again without hesitation. Highly recommended to everyone.

Lovely restaurant attentive staff good atmosphere lovely food . Great prices on the set menu. Seating really comfortable great for Liverpool fans full of memorabilia me and my husband have stayed overnight here before and the rooms and en suites are amazing

Food was lovely, but very small portions. Service was slow and we weren't even offered desert. Had to chase staff for drinks order. Was a treat for a special occasion but didn't feel very special. A little disappointed.

Fantastic food and great night Fantastic Service very attentive informative and excellent customer service form the staff who where very busy but still delivered first class service

Excellent service. Attentive all the way through the match. Cannot complaint at aĺl about the waiting on staff. Great result in the togger too, come on red men!

Good staff service but it’s a Hen Party place and very noisy. I chose this because of the links to LFC and Shankley thinking it would round our trip to Liverpool off. Sadly I would avoid this hotel unless you are on a Hen Party. Noted some elderly guests who appeared to be staying in hotel and looked out of place.

Fantastic Sunday lunch. Excellent value for money. The food and staff are both exceptional. Great location and decor. A must for every football fan not just liverpool supporters.

Great food quick service would recommend if you want a lovely meal with your partner or family or special occasion lovely service too great restaurant

We all had the two courses and the roast dinners where amazing. I don’t normally like hotel restaurants but everywhere else was full with it being Easter Sunday but we will definitely come back.

Very friendly staff although sometimes hard to find a waiter as their was a function in the private room adjacent to the restaurant and staff were also servicing the function. Good food and the live music was a great added bonus.

The Service, the food and the cocktails were fabulous had a great afternoon with friends in comfort. Would recommend this for afternoon tea to everyone

From start to finish the whole experience was amazing, staff and food fabulous . It was my mums 83rd birthday and the waitress made my mum feel very special

Food and service was excellent! Staff are very friendly and welcoming, haven’t got a bad word to say about our experience so we will definitely return.

Fantastic venue with excellent service from walking through the door to leaving,great food great atmosphere and excellent service! Will be returning to try the excellent menu again !

Fantastic service and an extra special touch with complimentary drinks as we were celebrating my nieces 18th birthday. I will definitely be going back soon

Staff very friendly. Nice relaxed atmosphere. Would certainly recommend. We were shown around one of the bedrooms by staff as we are thinking of staying in the the future.

Service (harleyia) and food excellent. Kept table for us despite being 30 minutes late due to traffic congestion. Also helped us out serving dessert extra quick as son had to be on 15:47 train back to London
