Benricks — Restaurant in Wirral

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...

Benricks, that Family owned and run Café / Restaurant, is like walking into someone's Front room. The Staff are so pleasant, warm and friendly. Regular patrons are treated as family friends. They smile and welcome you soon as you enter and are never too busy for a chat. Max, the eldest son, is an absolute gem for Front of House. He shares your joys and disappointments and shares his, too, but is never overbearing. We have placed Orders for Social Occasions and they have packed them with great care and attention. We have never been disappointed and recommend Benricks extremely highly, so much so that we have to book a Table as many patrons do. Benricks is a very good example for others to follow ; majority of their food Homemade and the Prices are very, very reasonable. Max makes a delicious Latte and Costa in Birkenhead could take lessons from him. Benricks is an Eating oasis. Thank you mum, dad and Max.

Just visited the reopening of this Fabulous Family Cafe. My Wife and I thoroughly enjoyed a fantastic cooked breakfast 😋. The Restaurant areas have been refurbished, looks spotless and it's wonderful to meet the Family once again, especially Max. We suffered the agonies of their unavoidable closure, but we were happily rewarded with Hazelnut Lattes made by the man himself to include his Max Factor. Welcome back 🙏 ☺ 😊 🤗, you've been greatly missed. See you soon. Best Wishes, Shaun. Posted: Wednesday 12th August, 2020...

We’ve just been here for the first time ever after waking up craving a breakfast and looking up where the best places to go were (we’re quite new to the area). After reading all the fab reviews we decided to come here and it definitely did not disappoint! We both had the larger full English breakfast and it was absolutely delicious - we reckon it’s the best we’ve had! To drink we had delicious coffee and hot chocolate, which both came with a really nice little shortbread biscuit, and some really nice quality apple juice. Everything was amazing quality - the bacon and sausages in particular were of a really high standard, and the fried egg was cooked to perfection. We’ll definitely be making this a regular thing! Looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu. It has to be said as well that the staff were really friendly and chatty, which makes all the difference too! There was a lovely community feel about the place - we felt very welcome. Thank you Benricks for a lovely breakfast - definitely filled the void after a few too many gins the...
