Great food and service as it always is, Absolutely loved the candy cane martinis, they was delicious.

On arrival, the table wasn't ready for the time we'd booked. There was still food on the floor under the table from the previous customers. Service was very slow , we had to remind or ask about the status for food and drinks at the bar 3 times. The last round was completely forgotten and the obligatory £30 deposit was not automatically deducted from the final bill. The food was ok though. (Only ok, not amazing)

Super lunch on Sunday 17 December. Josh excelled with goats' cheese rarebit with figs and walnuts; mussels, clams and cod risotto. Very well looked after by Theresa and Tim.

Had a meal with my son at this lovely Italian restaurant. The service was excellent. All food piping hot and freshly made. The place was busy as soon as its doors opened, yet the staff paid good attention to people at all tables. Been here a few times and had different meals each time, the seafood risotto with mussels was exceptional. We shall be back soon.

The pub has a lovely friendly atmosphere. The menu is very interesting and the small plates looked delicious and generous portions. We had a paneer burger with masala fries, 3 curries with naan breads and a fish & chips. All enjoyed and agreed we would return. I had the prawn vindaloo, wad good to see a flavoursome Goan vindoloo on the menu and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Good tasty food is not produced quickly , so please be patient with the kitchen. Staff are friendly and helpful. Recommended.

Probably one of the best afternoon teas we have ever had. Everything was delicious and plenty to eat and drink. I can not wait to go again, I do hope this is not a special Christmas thing.

Had afternoon tea with my sister and mum. A beautiful and clean cafe. The food was excellent and plentiful. We enjoyed the fact that there was soup as well as sandwiches. The cakes are delicious. The waitress was very attentive. Would highly recommend.

Had an excellent 3 course meal on Friday. The starters, beef taco and Thai salad were tasty and absolutely delicious. The mains, oxtail with mash and steak were cooked to perfection. As for the deserts well they were gorgeous. This is one of Sale’s best kept secrets. The ambience and atmosphere is friendly and relaxed, this is due to the professionalism of the staff . They have a great selection of drinks from wine to cocktails. I highly recommend this restaurant

First time visiting the Fat Loaf and I will definitely be back. The food was amazing and really lovely, friendly staff.

Highly recommended. We had a fantastic meal And time for our works Xmas meal on the 16/12 Everything 5 star

I had the festive afternoon tea, which was great value for money. Great sandwich choice, warm scones, warm soup, amazing cakes, and a couple of cappuccinos. This shop is a lovely addition to Leigh, everybody should call in for a drink and a cake, there's a lovely selection to choose from. I will definitely be returning.

The food was excellent but had to wait nearly an hour for the table.

Great food and lovely restaurant.

Lovely food, reasonably priced, atmosphere was OK but maybe because it was early evening the place wasn't so busy. Service wasn't speedy given that we were the only ones in but the hostess was polite and friendly. Would probably go again to see if it's good a 2nd time round. They probably do need to advertise that there is a pay and display carpark around the back otherwise people assume there isn't local parking.

Both the food and the staff were 1st class. The atmosphere was very pleasant. It was a very good experience. We will definitely be going back.
