Reviews in Southport

We visited Lucy's today after it had been taken over from Elaine and John who ran it before as Langtry's tea rooms. It was absolutely disgraceful as follows:-1. The eggs were like rubber to say the least 2. The breakfasts were a lot smaller than we got when it was Langtry's. 3. Most of the regular customers were not there which says something!! 4, We always had a full pot of hot tea in an insulated pot with extra water. This time one pot of luke warm tea. I understand also that no coffee top ups are given unlike when Elaine and John had it. You were always made to feel welcome, when John and Elaine had it, Marie the waitress and Graham the chef were great as well. Every Saturday we had to say at least 10 'hellos' to all the regulars, but today there were just 2 , so where have all the others gone!! Well they will be losing at least a couple more of the regulars next week as as well as us, another couple who went every week won't be going again!! I doubt that Lucy will ever get back the regulars there. We are now having to find another friendly tea room!!. We won't be visiting again Lucy.

Excellent restaurant, superb choice of menus for all tastes and budgets and the staff are very friendly. Oh and I forgot the food is excellent also...lol

My daughter and I absolutely love the Tea Rooms and the surrounding atmosphere, now we always come here for lunch when we visit Southport. Love the detail and quirkiness of the style, its like stepping back in time!. The food and service are excellent, very good value for money.

I looked at the reviews having been there two years ago but this visit was a disappointment, no bread with soup starter, fatty steak, no vegetables with main had to request after being served? Charged for coffee when part of set menu? Won't return.

I went to Le Boulevard in Southport with some friends a couple of weeks ago. We all enjoyed the food and would like to come for a xmas meal. Please can you send me a menu that I can pass one round to everyone. We are a self help group set up by people with mental health for people with mental health issues. Look forward to hearing from you soon. Thanks.

Food was excellent and the service was very good. Definitely will come back.

Had a great evening with the family for my mother in laws 70th birthday. The food was excellent. Will definitely be visiting again.

I think it is a lovely chippy and the food is amazing. But I think that you shouldn't put onions and mushrooms in the gravy because anyone could be allergic to it.

We went to Southport today and as usual went to Rich's for lunch. As normal our food was excellent. Ubfortunately the front of house staff seemed more interested in clearing empty tables rather than coming to see if we wanted anything else. After waiting for approx 10 mins we got up and paid the bill. It wasn't busy so am extremely disappointef on losing out on my banana split.

Wonderful place, superb food, very warm welcome. Would go out of our way to go back again.

My friend and I visited New China City on 27th June 2014. It was very nice. All the staff were very helpful and efficient. The food provided a very good choice and the restaurant was very clean. It cost us around £27 for 2 buffets and 2 refillable drinks evening prices but ok we thought.

I've never felt so relaxed at this place. It is so amazing and the staff are wonderful.

After spending the afternoon watching our Pinnochio themed politicians blabbing, I gave up and went out for Tea. Thai rice is very nice, warm, friendly and very pleasant attentive staff. Had Chicken satay skewers, good peanut sauce very tasty followed by a red curry with tiger prawns and fresh pineapple chunks with coconut rice. It was spicy, and a degree of heat, just enough to suit this curry head but not too hot as some other thai dishes can be. I followed this with a sweet pancake with coconut and ice cream. I must say I enjoyed every mouthful and left a very happy man again, cost was £29 which included a pint, fair price and worth every penny. I can recommend this venue without hesitation. Happy days !!

It was the first time we visited the Imperial Hotel, and I went with my Parent's for their 43rd Anniversary. We all thought the food, tasted real good and we would recommend it to others. Many thank for the experience. Regards Nigel.

Out shopping in southport on Monday we decided to have a late lunch. Strolling around town we happened upon le boulevard in Cambridge walks. I had mentioned to my partner that I didn't fancy a chain restaurant or a pub, but rather something a little more homely. This fitted the bill perfectly. Although a 'restaurant' it has more of a café feel, which is no bad thing in our fast food society.I opted for home made lasagne, which was delicious and came with a generous portion of chips and salad. My partner went for the chorizo burger which was topped with a grilled red pepper and cheese. This was served with wedges and salad. He was more than happy with it.I had a pot of tea and my other half a coffee. The bill came to just under 17 pounds which was amazing value for money.The menu here is pretty extensive, even offering a roast dinner seven days a week with a choice of several meats!If you are fed up with soulless chain establishments, give this place a go. Home cooked food, friendly staff and great prices. What's not to like?

We did not stay at the hotel but after having a meal it seems we had a very lucky escape - feel sorry for people who may have booked in for a couple of days - I would not go again if someone paid for me - food poor and the service was worse - never again.

Had a Fantastic evening at Lings on Kings. Can highly recommend the special buffet! Every dish was delicious and well prepared. Treated like old friends by the manageress. When the crispy duck and pancakes were served the freshly roasted duck was cut at our table, a very nice touch which we have never seen at a Chinese restaurant before. Towards the end of the evening my Mum accidentally spilled a glass of Red wine and the manageress kindly offered to have the affected top washed that evening to try and make sure that the wine did not stain it, giving her a brand new t-shirt to wear in its place for the rest of the night, and when my Mum collected it the following night it was like new - wonderful example of service going that extra mile. Thank you for giving our family a lovely evening
