Reviews in Lancashire

Stayed here last weekend and enjoyed it immensely. My wife and I stayed in one of the new rooms (room 26) and the design of the room is superb. Very contemporary, comparable with a top end boutique hotel complete with plasma tvs, original modern artwork and multi jet shower thing. They've spent money on secondary glazing for the sash windows and the general feel of the place is quality. Superb value at £70 a room, I pay two or three times this price for other boutique hotels. Breakfast (included) is also special, with oddities such as goose eggs, several varieties of bacon and sausages and home made baked beans !! Lovely stay, highly recommended.

Situated in a row of shops the external view is very deceptive the Nila is quite large inside tables near the bar and 2 long rows of alcove seats. I have been there a few times and the food has always been good and the menu is ok with no surprises. The alcove seating is fine for 4 people but the seating at the front of the restaurant which accommodates larger parties is too near the bar and can be cold in winter with the door always opening. The service is fine and usually has a pleasant atmosphere. Overall I've had good meals and good times. I could recommend a visit.

This is a beautiful restaurant with amazing food. It looks nothing from the outside but venture in and taste the delights that await you. We have just paid our second visit here after making many trips to Nino's Italian restaurant just up the road from here. What a delight we have been missing all this time. Our second visit was even better than our first. On Friday and Saturday evening there is a classical/flamenco guitarist Robin Hill who is superb and creates the perfect atmosphere for enjoying Tapas food cooked to perfection. Do not delay book your table now and see what you are also missing.

Well worth finding. Top notch food well presented. Landlady Rachel is a bit of a find as well. Don't give any cheek - you'll get loads back. Our 4 star find of the year. A very warm and friendly welcome.

Wonderful I go a few times a month and it is good, may not look much from the outside but you get a warm welcome and lovely food at great price.

A real gem! Lovely interior, very friendly, helpful staff. Menu has lots of choices all of which sound so tempting it was hard to know what to pick. The food is really fresh and the ingredients are the quality you would buy for yourself and family, rather than the cheaper catering alternatives which so many places serve up. I would recommend with confidence to anyone.

We have been going to Huntleys at night for a few months. We have always found the food excellent and nothing is too much trouble for both mark and the staff.

I have been here on a few occasions and always had a very good meal! Really enjoyable place!

I've been to Alghero's about 10 times now and everytime I have a very nice meal - the food is always excellent! It always comes well presented and always hot enough. I mainly go on a Friday or Saturday night - that is their busiest time you therefore more than often have a long wait to be seated at your table (even if you have booked) - however there is a bar area where you can wait and have drinks and look at the menu. During the week i.e Mon - Thurs nights is not as busy therefore you can be seated when you are ready. The open kitchen is really nice - My thoughts are that if a restaurant has an open kitchen they have nothing to hide. If you are thinking of having a fantastic Italian meal I would defo recommend this - they have never let me down yet!!! Oh yeah - i would recommend the chicken in asparagus and white wine - really nice!!! and all the pizzas are lovely!! :O)

We recently had a retirement party on the royal sovereign and it was brill, we were consulted on what kind of night we wanted, and it was a very lively one! the staff were extremely polite, helpful and very good at their job! Especially to put up with a boat full of drunken old farts!!! Cheers

We went at lunchtime and took advantage the lunchtime special menu, which worked out at under a fiver each. I had pasta and my wife had a rissotto and they were both fantastic. Good portion size too, not the usual cut down version you sometimes get on an special menu. Would highly recommend.

We went on a weekday before 7.30 so chose off the 'Early Bird' menu - £11.95 for two courses or £13.95 for three. The food was lovingly presented and tasted great! The quantities were just right too. Recommended!

The food at the sun cafe perfectly matches its chilled out atmosphere and style. With dishes ranging from wahoo fish to spaghetti carbonara, it provides something for everyone and you can sample a different dish everytime you go in. The wines and cocktails are great too!!

Went to Soupanova for the first time yesterday. It is definitely the top place in Lancaster for healthy, hearty and yummy snacks. You can even test the soups before you buy and the salad I had was fantastic. I really enjoyed it and the service was friendly, helpful, inviting and I really felt welcome. Excellent prices for what you get too!!!

Exceptional Food, Change massively in the last 2 years. Nice place to eat. Highly recommended

Fantastic place! Food is outstanding! Compliments to the chef Anson!!

We have visited the 3 fishes on several occasions and love the fantastic food, location and relaxed atmosphere, where the food is the centre of the attention. It? even better as the ingredients are locally produced and the food you remember from childhood. This is the best restaurant in Lancashire and is also not as expensive as the Heathcotes brassiere outlets. My main tip would be arrive early as you can't book tables and don't drink all the dandelion & burdock!

Visited on a Friday lunch time and we plumped for the special of a 2 course lunch for £11.95, which was fairly good value, but had to pay extra for the hubby's steak main course (£3.95). Food was excellent, well presented and very tasty, however the restaurant lacked any atmosphere, even though there were about 6 other couples dining. Two other things put me off slightly, I hate carpets in restaurants, eugh! and also the menu I was given was grubby, finger marks and the like. Overall would visit again for the food, but make sure I took good company with me. Restaurant could be totally different in the evening.
