About Cafe Lucaya

Tucked into an old building on Water St opposite the Liver Building, this is a calm, plant-filled room that somehow makes a wet Liverpool morning feel manageable — mid-century furniture, lots of greenery, and enough seating that you're not squeezing a pram between tables. It's a proper breakfast and brunch spot: the poached eggs with salmon and the egg and avocado toastie get the most love, and the matcha and coffee are worth ordering. High chairs, a kids' menu, vegan options and free parking all help. Two honest snags: the £15 Full English is widely considered poor value next to the rest of the menu, and food can be slow on a quiet morning, so order before anyone hits empty. Bring a layer in winter — the room can run cold. One parent called the atmosphere "calm and relaxing".
