Honestly the most lovely place, food, staff, location!!

Delicious food as always and great service

We had a lovely meal with our family. The food was delicious, and the service was superb. Will definitely return.

Now my 3rd visit and the experience gets worse every time! How can anyone invest so much money into a place and do it so well and then just leave it to run by a team of totally clueless staff. The staff set the experience . We booked for 11am… When we arrived were told run out of bread you can wait until staff member gets back from the shop or try something else. After 15 mins tried something else sausage and egg barm. Can’t really get that wrong but came looking like a bit of a dog’s breakfast. Waited 14 mins for a coffee… Had to ask for the bill twice… For us it’s a great spot and fits in with a nice walk… Who ever owns this place get a grip !

Had a last minute lunch date here on Tuesday, it was great to be back after such a long time with the restrictions! Great service with great food , we have so missed this !

Fabulous as as always

Just amazing, how I’ve missed this I’ll never know as I’m local, brilliant place, brilliant food brilliant staff and service, absolutely loved it and will definitely go back, just a shame it’s not open evenings but they’re busy enough !! Thank you x

Consistently excellent food and service. It is particularly appreciated how the staff make allowances for my elderly mother. This is her favourite restaurant and looks forward to visiting when I take her out.

Really good food (I’m not a vegetarian either) service a little slow but lovely staff. Would defiantly recommend.

Excellent experience

Breakfast on Sunday was fabulous. Welcoming & attentive staff, excellent tasty food & sunshine with a beautiful view - just perfect

Verdes is our favourite restaurant: a wonderful family-run, classic Italian place, with some non-Italian meals as well, I noticed because my friend last night surprised me by ordering chicken teriyaki; she was very happy with it. Verdes taught me to get over my lifelong dislike of raw tomatoes by serving the most magnificent bruschetta; the olives in marinade are our family favourite starter, all the pizzas are exceptional, and the chicken in champagne is probably my favourite main course. The chef will also tweak things to your liking a little bit. The wine list is good, with a nice range of prices and tastes. The puddings are also excellent. I don't think I can find anything to fault, actually. Just wish it was on our street. The perseverance during the lockdowns has been admirable: the management have taken the opportunity to completely refurbish the place and it's nice and fresh-looking. Such a shame that they have been forced to close for so long.

First visit yesterday, gorgeous place. Menu choice was excellent. Shared Wellington and Filo Pastry Parcel both delicious! Highly recommended. Lovely staff very friendly and accommodating!

The best Italian restaurant ever I would recommend a visit to anyone. Excellent food great atmosphere Excellent service very friendly. My son and I have been going there for quite a while and we've never been disappointed

Food was delicious & it was so good to be back thank you to all the staff for making our meal so enjoyable

We had a wonderful lunch here earlier this week. From Chorley it is such a pleasant walk along the canal to Whin's, and the al fresco dining was so wonderful, allowing us to take in the gorgeous views on a very sunny day. There was a little delay in getting served as they were very busy, but the waiting staff were very pleasant and helpful. There was a little bit of a mix up when we arrived - despite being booked in we had to wait to be seated, and then waited again at each stage of the process. There was some confusion about where to sit, were we told at first to sit anywhere, then told to go inside and ask at the counter, then offered tables outside. As it happened we didn't mind the service taking so long as we were having a leisurely day and the weather was beautiful. The food was wonderful from start to finish, and we absolutely loved being able to grab an ice cream cone for the walk home. It is such a rare gem to find a place as fine as this that caters for the vegan palette with such style, and we feel very lucky to have this on our doorstep! My only other quibble would be the price - had we not had the vouchers kindly given to me by a friend then our lovely lunch would have worked out quite pricey indeed - considering the lower cost of non-meat ingredients we felt some of the prices were a bit on the high side. However, we will definitely be back the next time we can justify having a treat meal. I would recommend Whin's to anyone wanting to try a healthy and tasty slice of plant-based cuisine.
