   A lot of barriers. Waited outside 5/10 mins before being let in. Booked a time which was confirmed, then a week later was emailed informing me that my booking had been moved earlier without notice. Spoke to venue weeks before booking to discuss and informed that we can still come at our required time. Called up on the day as courtesy to say we were running ‘late’ which they said was fine. When we turned up, we were told that we were late and we could only have an hour instead of the 2.5hrs which you are meant to get. We are big fans of Puffin rooms but have felt underwhelmed by our recent experience.

   The food was not nice, and it was overpriced. The whisky cigar part was okay.

   Table booked for 2 hours, waited 20 minutes for a round of drinks, told to prepare to leave with 15 minutes remaining. First drinks we selected weren’t available. Service was fine, delivered to the standard you would expect. Singer handed out list of songs but didn’t know 2 of the first few requests. In my opinion atmosphere was poor. Not my cup of tea.

   As a loyal patron of the Puffin Rooms and a frequent visitor to the adjoining cigar shop, I have always appreciated the ambiance and quality these establishments offered. Unfortunately, my recent experience fell strikingly short of expectations due to significant changes in the staff. The experience began with an unexpectedly cold and unwelcoming reception from the door staff. Once inside, the service only worsened. The waitstaff exhibited a surprisingly poor attitude, marked by rudeness and a distinct lack of accountability when our drink orders were incorrect. There was a palpable sense from some staff members that they would rather be elsewhere, which was particularly evident in how one member addressed my wife. The small female staff member who served our table was unprofessional and displayed an alarming lack of respect when engaging with our party of four. It was abundantly clear that training and experience were lacking across the board, which greatly impacted our enjoyment of the evening. Having spent a considerable amount of money over the years at both the Puffin Rooms and the cigar shop, I expected a level of service that matched the reputation they had built. Unfortunately, this experience was enough to ensure that I will not return. I am deeply disappointed to see such a decline and will no longer trust this venue with my time or patronage.

   Fantastic spot one of my favourite places to end a great day out in Liverpool. The host was fantastic, selection of cigars was amazing and the drinks were great too.

    Did not order food so can’t comment. No option to decline the food score.
