Reviews in Blackburn

This is the second time that we have been to Waheeds and we will definitely be going back. The food is great and the pots are always full. The pots are checked regularly and filled up as and when needed. The staff are great and friendly. The atmosphere is good and also the seating is good. My husband is disabled and one of the members of staff helps when taking the food back to the table. We are a party of four and as stated before, we will certainly be going back.

Nice layout. Second visit. However disappointed the second time. Poor service as wanted drinks and did not get anyone to come to table to lace order. When we did finally it took 20 mins for drinks. Food was disappointing as there was insuffient food in the pots. Felt awful getting more than one seek kebab as I knew the other members of my party would not get any otherwise. Really wanted a pakora but there weren't any in the pots. Even on my second visit to the counter. There were no nan to eat my food. Had to keep asking. Then to top it off the food was cold. Sadly won't be returning.

Went for a birthday meal with the family yesterday and was looking forward to it (mainly the hotpot). When mine arrived, it was flat and appeared to have been cooking for a long time compared to the one my daughter got. It tasted ok to begin with but as I got to the bottom of the dish, it was quite salty and inedible. My daughter arranged for a birthday cake to be brought out. The staff were kind enough to light the candles, despite being busy but didn't bring any knife to cut the cake nor any plates. We asked for a knife to cut the cake but it never arrived. In the end, we asked for the box twice before we got it so we could take it home. No one had any cake. After looking forward to the meal, all I can say is what a let down. May be we were treated this way because we aren't regular customers.

Great carvery meal for myself and my wife. Grandson loved the endless supply of ice cream. So polite and spotless will use till the ice cream stops lol.

Food excellent. Staff friendly and helpful. Took 82 people, everyone loved the food. Great value too.

Good atmosphere. Friendly helpful staff and the food was absolutely fantastic. Just faultless. Will be back for sure. Well done guys..

Nice atmosphere and qood quality food. And seating is comfortable. Helpful and friendly staff. Will definitely visit again. Good luck Waheeds.

Wow what a place 5 STAR. Top Quality Starters Main and Dessert. Nice Ambiance, Value for Money, Friendly Courteous Staff. Great high back seating arrangement complementing the decor. The chicken and corn soup is brilliant!!! The manager even gave us guys a jug of Mango juice on the house !!! What more can i ask for, well done.

Went to Waheeds with a couple of friends was a lovely atmosphere and service was excellent, loved the butter chicken! Wide variety of dishes must have been at least 30. the chocolate fudge cake was very good I had 3 slices of that served with cream cherry flavour ice cream, which I haven't tasted before.

Salaam, my initial response at our visit was impressive as you'd only been open for 2/3 months. The buffet was very good but could be better. Starter dishes were too spicy for the kids so was disappointed as they only eat a starter and dessert. Somewhat disappointed and surprised there was no zarda in the dessert and expected noodles to be on buffet. You could organise your space a little better by allocating a more convenient and suitable table for ladies who wear niqab. We encountered an accident due to limited space as other customers next to us were using a screen. Luckily my daughter wasn't hurt badly and there were no spillages. Please take this as constructive advise and not a criticism. Waalaam

I love Mexican food but I recently went to this restaurant with my family and we were a bit disappointed. Although the kids meals are decent value the adult meals are over priced. I ordered chicken encheladas which was average at best. The portion was small and nothing on the side ie no rice etc. Very poor value and not enough to fill me up and I'm 5 foot nothing. My husbands burger meal was ok but not worth the money. Then we were over charged for something. My husband noticed this though and they sorted it at the till.

Had lunch at your restaurant today and I have to say I was disappointed with the cleanliness of the dining area; the carpet looked like it hadn't been cleaned for weeks The food was just ordinary. Compared with a Harvester restaurant I had lunch in earlier in the week, the food was not good value. I'm not surprised it was almost empty. The Harvester was full! With your position; in a lovely country village, in the heart of the Ribble Valley, equal distance between the City of Preston and Blackburn, at the height of the holidays, you should be full!

We have dined out almost every weekend for the last 20 years, so I would say I am knowledgable on what makes a good restaurant. The Spread Eagle was exceptional for service.

Been visiting Grey Mare for many years, sadly the food has steadily gone down hill. Much smaller potions, long waits for food, on occation the food had to be sent back inedable scampy cold. Too much salt in some meals waiting an hour for our meals. The owners are very polite and apologetic but its just not as good as it used to.

Your food is awful very cold.

This is THE best chinese restaurant I have ever been to. Not the cheapest but the suthentic ingredients make all the difference!! Trip advisor mainly agrees! Not sure what we will do if mr and mrs cheung decide to retire, been eating there for over 20 years!

Went in June for a birthday . Food was absolutely devine but with small fine dining portions, not for everyone as I could have ate everything again. Didn't like the fact were we made to feel a little out of place that we didn't want to drink wine at 1-30 in the afternoon. Maybe in the evening but just fancied a Peroni . Would go back but maybe in the evening.

Having visited the Windmill Preston New Road Mellor Brook Bnear Blackburn for my Son's Birthday today 5th June 2014. I have never visited a worse place to eat. The Place was Empty so not rushed off their feet. I ordered Scampi the rest of family had other things, but it took ages to get our order.I complained about Scampi it was not Scampi but reconstituted & shaped & was not fit to eat. The Chef came out of kitchen with bag of frozen reconstituted something & shouted what does it say on bag to which I replied it say's scampy bites! He said I don't f/ing care whether you pay or not . I said to Lady behind the Bar, I'm not paying for that meal. She said I'll ring my boss & he told her to take that meal off the bill. Considering the bill was still £44-25 for4 soft drinks 4 starters & 3 other main meals that were not good either I know we will not be going there again or recommend The Windmill to anyone.
