Joanne Hartley
★★★★★a week agoWhat a beautiful and nurturing place of reflection, love and peace. I would highly recommend enjoying lunch and some leisurely appreciation of the exhibition and gardens here. Another highlight is the gift shop with the best range of Beatles t shirts. The customer service here is outstanding. I couldn't have had a warmer welcome.

★★★★★2 months agoWhat a wonderful place to visit. Strawberry Field is so much more than a famous name — it’s a genuinely beautiful and thoughtful attraction that exceeded all expectations. The gardens are lovely to wander through and carry a real sense of peace and reflection. The shop is fantastic, packed with brilliant keepsakes and gifts, and the café is a great spot to sit and soak it all in. Combined with John Lennon’s childhood home just a short walk away, this makes for a perfect half-day out in Liverpool. A moving, joyful, and memorable experience all at once.
