“ Went this afternoon for lunch with a friend. It was really busy when we arrived, so we sat in the outdoor terrace area. Our food arrived in no time at all, it was well presented and the portions sizes generous. When I couldn't decide what cake to go for, a member of staff kindly suggested the Orange and Ginger Chessecake that had been made that morning. It was heavenly and went down a treat. Benricks is a hidden gem, ideal for breakfast, lunch or a quick snack. They serve a varied menu with lots of choice. The staff are welcoming and friendly, definitely worth a visit. ”

“ We have been dinning here for the past two weeks. What else can I say? Food and hot drinks are hot, not warm. Everyone is so lovely and the Eggcustard is the best I have tasted. Mum had the standard breakfast. I have Sweet potato and apple soup. Absolutely delicious ”
“ Called in on the off chance as we were early for a meeting so decided to get some food and drinks. We were greeted by a young lady who asked if we had a booking a first for a little high st cafe. I assume it gets busy as they serve afternoon tea. I was also pleantly surprised of the hygiene it didn't smell of cooking fat at all and all the surfaces were spotless no greasy residue. Layout was light and airy with great spacing between tables so you was not on top of other customers like a lot of small cafes. The decor was nice and the pastel colours of light pinks made for a relaxing experience and the ceiling was adorned with bunting again very clean for a cafe. The menu catered for all tastes and diet requirements vegan veggie and carnivores all catered for. There is a lot of choice from English breakfast of varying sizes, burgers, lasagne etc and the soup of the day looked amazing "bubble n squeak soup" I do wish I had tried some it looked really good but I opted a full english as the menu mentioned locally sourced free range eggs and I was quiet hungry. The standard breakfast had 1 bacon 1 sausage 1 perfectly cooked oranges yolked egg beans in a ramakin grilled tomato toast a hash brown and we got extra black pudding accompanied with a pot of tea for 2. Top quality ingredients bacon tasted like back back should I never noticed and fat on it sausage was tasty no of those herb just a decent pork sausage again not fat or gristle. I would have preferred a tinned tomato but it wasn't a big deal. Good pot of twinings English tea and a little pot of milk. On of the best breakfast if tasted in a long while keep up the good work great staff. Deffo worth a visit if your in the area ”
“ Love it here, always good food and service, very nice atmosphere I recommend booking this place before arriving as can get busy even at breakfast. Don't be put off by busy, it's nicely spaced out. ”
“ Second time and still spot on. Will become a regular now as the food is not only delicious but smartly presented. My bf got a full English that looked really nice and tidy. And i got the tuna salad , they present their food very well and look forward to going again. They also accommodated us when we rang up for a table having a young child with us placing us next to the window which helps having a 4 year old being able to look outside. Food was quick and the staff are very friendly happy to tip at the end when we left. ”
“ Just passing by and noticed the outside chairs, plus down the side.. with a lovely hidden suntrap secret garden hidden at the back.. Nice soup, cakes and excellent coffees. Need to try the full menu and breakfasts.. Updated - still the same great place, perfect menu, all really well cooked, really good breakfasts.. big shout out for the Potato dauphinois with eggs, add whatever else you want.. also the potato cakes... ”
“ A lovely and homy place where I stopped for lunch before doing some grocery shopping. I had a chance to try their local dish "Scouse" it was a Lamb Scouse and it's amazing. (Scouse is from the word Lobscouse, which was a dish commonly eaten by sailors travelling across Northern Europe; the hearty stew generally consists of meat, either lamb or beef with potatoes, carrots and onions and served with pickled beetroot or cabbage and some crusty bread on the side. Everyone in Liverpool has their own recipe for Scouse, passed down through the generations.) ”
