This cafe is fantastic with incredibly affordable prices in a beautiful canal side setting. The menu offers a wide variety of options from cakes and snacks to full meals, catering to all tastes. A tip for visitors is that there are numerous free attractions on site without paying the £8 entrance fee. The free galleries feature exhibitions and glass artwork, the artisan gift shop is a must-visit, offering reasonably priced items. The cafe itself is top-notch, making it a great spot for gatherings. I highly recommend stopping by this cafe when in the area.
In my opinion, this is the best spot for lunch in St. Helens. The soups are excellent and they also offer delicious main meals. The coffee may be a weak point, but the tea is great. Located in the World of Glass, this restaurant is surrounded by a fantastic museum, interesting art gallery, and an excellent shop with unique items. Access to the museum requires payment, but the other attractions mentioned are free to use.
This cafe is inside the World of Glass but can be, and should be used non-visitors. A very spacious, bright location overlooking the canal. We had a pre-booked full Christmas dinner which was superb and great value. Served at the fully laid out table by lovely staff. Or you could choose to pop in for coffee/tea and/or a light lunch at any time. Well worth a visit for a rest and 'refueling '
My friend and I decided to try here for lunch and we were so glad we did. The food was homemade and absolutely delicious. I had braised steak and it was as good as my Nan’s. The portion sizes are generous yet the prices are really reasonable and the service is quick if you’re on a lunch break like us. The cafe and the shop are open to anyone. You don’t need to be going to the museum.

I had a great time at this restaurant. The ambiance was pleasant and the food was delicious. The outdoor seating area was also lovely. The elderly gentleman who served us was very welcoming and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. The staff were very helpful and knowledgeable.
Our first visit to this cafe and it was excellent. The food is very good; tasty and plenty of it. The prices are really good value. the atmosphere is great. The service is fabulous with nothing too much trouble for the young man who served us. Will definitely go back. Highly recommend.
A really friendly welcome. Food for my intolerant wife and attention to detail. I really enjoyed my sausages and onions. With broccoli, carrots, chips and gravy. All washed down with a pint of Wychwood Hobgoblin Gold.
Enjoyed the experience. Beautiful area to eat, light and airy. Outside area is very nice too. The older gentleman made us feel very welcome, nothing was too much trouble. Staff very helpful and informative.

I enjoyed a peaceful atmosphere while sitting outside in the sun with a coffee and sandwich. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. It was great to see the restaurant open again.
I know it as the World of Glass cafe. The same customers every time I visit, always a good sign that service is good.
