Reviews in Lancashire

We discovered Deli Med after moving to the surrounding area last summer and won't go anywhere else when in the City. The staff are always delightful and the food is wonderful and fresh. As a true coffee lover, it's a real find and our children rave about the wonderful Spanish hot chocolate. I love the 'taste table' which has something different every day and the continental feel of the cafe makes it a good all round experience. Despite the credit crunch, going to Deli Med is still my twice weekly pleasure.

Feb 2009 - Upon arrival the bar was full of empty/dirty/used glasses from the night before. No one was in a rush to move them either, just serve around them. When we eventually discovered the function room, (as no-staff were in the least bit interested to show us where we had to go?)we were met with a filthy carpet, filthy dusty cutlery, dirty glasses, and stained tablecloths! not sure when the carpet had last seen a vacuum!!! The food was absolutely terrible, stone cold, awful, (if you like pickles, this is the place for you, I have never seen so many!!!)filthy cutlery, a splash of wine served with the meal, (when asked for more, "we have to make sure there is enough for everyone else" a waitress remarked, then when the dessert arrived (20 minutes waiting between courses) was served, over 40 people remarked how horrible, cold and unappetising this was, not very helpful, terrible, terrible terrible, Haighton Manor we feel didn't provide, excellent service or value for money, the food was a disaster!!! what should of been a great day out. This used to be a fabulous Hotel for any function, however we shall not be visiting again, if you are contemplating holding a function, please visit on a few occassions, when one is on and ask the people if they're impressed!!!

Great location, relaxed atmosphere, good wine and a delicious rather large portion of locally sourced fish pie, what more could a girl want! Would definitely return for dinner again.

If you like a big plate of food then this is the place for you! I have a hearty portion of chilli which was excellent. service was friendly and the place has character. its just outside Clitheroe town centre.

Restaurant is OK...do not go to the Royal Station in Carnforth it is definitely the poor relation !!

This restaurant is FANTASTIC !! Staff are very attentive and very helpful. The food is GREAT and I would recommend it to anyone who lives within 20 miles, it is worth the trip. It is also very good value for money. Try it you will like it !!

I too have previously eaten at the Kings Arms and had been disappointed with the service. However, having read this decided we'd give it another try..... WOW! The food is good especially the chips cooked in dripping. And the service was pleasant - think we also got the smiling lady. The new owners have made a difference. I would recommend this to anyone. Keep up the good work.

good food, but truly awful service.

i was at the barton bangla barton brasserie last week with my family, the restaurant is great, the restaurant is clean and the service was excellent i highly recommend anyone to come to this fabulous and fantastic restaurant, it has brilliant variety of delicious food, the restaurant place looks clean and the restaurant deco is very modern.The service was exceptional i cant wait to go back! well done to everyone at barton bangla.

this place was alright. the waiters were very slow tho but the food was extremely tasty. its worth a visit with its vibrant atmosphere though so yeh get down there.

I have been dining at the Plough with friends for 9 years now and we are always impressed with the enormous menus, first class food and warm welcome. The guest malt whiskies are an added bonus.

The king of currys ,Rishton Balti house is the best you should try there currys especially the one i had lamb chops noorani with a garlic naan ,ummmm,feel like having one now.Give the balti house in rishton a visit you will not be disappointed ,you will come again and again and balti house keep up the good work.

The restaurant is only a short walk away from clubs and the pubs of Bolton,but in a good place as not to be disturbed by the crowds on a weekend.There are a couple of side streets and car parks close by to park on. There is a large selection of foods to choose from on the menu, both meat and vegetarian.I particularly like the fish dishes and pasta dishes. The one set price is to eat as much as you want and as long as this is not taken advantage off, you are fine. You can order desserts and coffees at a reasonable price and you will not be disappointed. There is a nice wine menu and the house wines are lovely also number 13 the rose wine is so easy to drink.Not forgetting the sangria which is served by the glass or pitch. They are currently extended upstairs where there is a separate room which when finished will be ideal for families or parties etc.

We discovered this Indian Restaurant purely by chance. The main thing we noticed was it was full and most of the people eating there were Indian/Asian. Now, believing Indian people should know where to eat good Indian food we thought we would give it a go and were not disappointed. Firstly, there is no alcohol. Although I like a drink or two with my meal, please don't let this stop you! The delicious fruit juices and wide range of soft drinks, reasonably priced should more than make up for this!! Staff Friendly and attentive staff. Great service. Price Be pleasantly surprised at the cost of the dishes and the cost of soft drinks! Our average bill for 2 people has been around £40 which has included poppadoms, chutney, 3 x starters, 2 x curries (abhari chicken masala and a King Prawn Masala), a jug of fresh juice and a couple of bottles of diet coke (bottles, not draft). Check out their website for the full menu. You will be pleasantly surprised. Appearance / Presentation of food The food always looks and tastes fantastic. Its a rare treat to get starters that look as well presented as you would expect from a top class restaurant in London from the likes of Jamie Oliver but for a fraction of the price! Quality / Taste The quality of food is always good. Don't go here expecting what you would normally get from your after pub hours, curry house. Infact, don't go here expecting the same taste you would get at an Indian restaurant that caters for us Brits! The taste is tantalising different. I particularly like the Akbari Chicken Masala which is their version of Chicken Tikka Masala!! I generally don't like Lamb dishes but my friend ordered Lahori Gosht and the meat was so tender that it melted in my mouth!! Quantity / Value for Money If you want good quality food representing excellent value for money, friendly and attentive staff and a true taste of Indian cuisine then the Bhukara has it all. Atmosphere Arguably this is not the restaurant to go to if you want one that is full of English people, laughing, drinking with annoyingly loud music playing in the background. It does not sell alchohol so this may not be the place to go to if its a celebration or you want a party atmosphere, although they do have a room upstairs for parties... If you would prefer to have a glass of wine with your meal... they do offer a takeaway service... Location Great out of the way location. Plenty of free parking. Overall Great food, friendly staff, reasonable prices. 10/10

Went here on Friday with a girlie friend. Lovely original decor and ambiance. The food (I had sea bass as a main) was excellent, as was the cocktail I had :) the lady staff were a bit less attentive than I would've liked, hey , never leave a lady with an empty wine glass!! But they were pleasant. The bartender man was very attentive, that may have been more to do with my attractive friend though LOL. I will definitely make a return.

went Friday night for a birthday party,15 of us,the restaurant was very busy ,but we was very well look after,everyone enjoyed a great night ,would recommend to any1

We visited last night + as usual it was fantastic beautiful food friendly staff . If i had to say anything negative it would be there isn't much vegetarian options for main ? Still our favorite restaurant tho by far !!!!

Calypso is the new Caribbean restaurant to hit Blackburn town, the food is excellent the service is great and the atmosphere is very authentic if you enjoy good food and a welcoming and exciting environment then calypso is the place for you.
