Reviews in Preston

This is not a recomendation. Myself and my family visited the Pub yesterday for a nice relaxing Sunday Lunch. We ordered our food at 4.35pm and checked to see where is was at 5.15pm. We were told that there had been a problem with the veg. We finally got our food at 5.30pm but not what we ordered. We had ordered 3 x Roast Dinners and the Veg advertised was Buttered Carrots, Mashed Suede, Cauliflower Cheese and Savoy Cabbage. What we received was carrots that had never seen butter and leeks in white sauce! We complained and were referred to the owner. A lady came over to us and very abruptly asked what the problem was. I explained that we had waited nearly an hour for our food and that no-one had come to explain that there was a problem. When we mentioned about the veg being completely different and not much of it we were told that no-one else was complaining and what was the problem it was only veg!!!!!!! The problem is we were paying for food that we had ordered and that was advertised and we didn't receive it. We also didn't received any kind of apology. All the proprietor could say was that they had been very busy earlier in the day. I am sorry but that is not my problem! In the end the woman shouted at us to just go! I have never been spoken to like that before in my life and hope that I never am again. We paid for the whole meal and left. I will certainly be advising everyone that I know (and I work at a major university nearby) not to go to the Green Man unless you are prepared to get abuse! Very Very unhappy customer.

I would just like to say.....Thank you very much,for a wonderful evening on 19/02/11. It was our silver wedding anniversary, and our party of 10 people had a 1st class meal, with drinks. The food was 1st class, the service 1st class, the staff 1st class.........Would recommend to anyone looking for a top class restaurant......look no further than Tinos.

Naaz is the best Indian ever but get the vindaloo

Have been a few times here and only had excellent meals. They will accommodate what you would like to eat even if not on the menu. The place is always friendly and the service efficient.

UPDATE - We have visited Angels on many occasions over the past couple of years or so and the high standards Angels set upon opening this classy venue are being maintained. Without exception, the food is delicious, staff attentive and a lovely, relaxed ambience prevails. The last two Christmas Day meals have been superb and a big 'Thank You' must go to the owners, Chef and manager for maintaining high standards - whatever the day!

Dreadful. The staff where rude, the service was rushed, the food and drinks where served in a spasmodic way. The bill was incorrect, and when challenged the error was dismissed. Very expensive for average food, we felt like we where unwelcome and the clientele was not what we expected

I can not recommend Tinos high enough, from arriving the staff were all very nice and welcoming, the food was fantastic, we had a very enjoyable evening in a lovely setting. We will most definitely be returning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

love this place and staff very friendly go there whenever i can

This is by far the worst chip shop I have ever visited, the staff pleasant enough, the food disgraceful We ordered fish & chips twice, upon arriving home, the smell of the fish was rancid... when cutting into the fish - it was black - / brown fish - the smell was awful. The fish was cooked upon ordering, so he may of fried it fresh, however it was rotten old fish, 20,000 league below I imagine!!! I returned the West End Chippy -with the two portions of rancid fish, upon reviewing the menu I noticed that the menu no longer lists haddock or cod - just fish £3.40!!! I told him the fish smelt awful, is black inside and is most definitely rotten, he went on to tell me its silver hake the best fillet you could buy, I was surprised at the level of his lie!! WEST END CHIPPY - YEARS AGO WAS GREAT - TODAY TERRIBLE -

Just been for a meal not having been for years and since the refurbishment. The food was excellent and good portions! I had the chicken livers which were to die for plus the Rogan Josh curry and chips. fab!

Never failed to come away having had great food, well served ale and met a familiar face. Conservatory is a nice venue with open aspects. Well worth the run out.

We chose a quiet night as it can get busy at weekends. Cannot complain about the food, price or service. Enjoy the beer as it is well served in this establishment. A place you could comfortably stay for the whole evening.

For that "something special" occasion is how I would describe this flamboyant exquisite place. It offers beautifully styled & spacious dining areas with highly trained waiting on staff & high caliber chefs who produce food for the gods. A "must try" place. You will not regret it.

A vibrant atmosphere coupled with excellent menu choice. Well presented dishes cooked in authentic & traditional methods. Well worth a visit.

A truly enjoyable experience. You are made to feel special by the attentive staff as soon as you arrive. The food is more than your typical Italian cuisine offering their signature dishes as well as well known favourites.

Found Smiths Arms in the fog last night, Not our first choice but the pub we had intended to go to has a long way to go to meet the standards at the Smiths. On arrival we were greeted and welcomed by the barman as we made our way to the dining area. The food was served in good time and the portions and quality were brilliant. The staff were very polite and friendly and the lady, who we presume was the owner, ensured we were all ok. The only minor disappointment was the coffee which tasted a little like "vending" machine coffee. All in all, excellent food at good prices with good service. We will certainly be returning again - brilliant - thank you.

First time visit to this venue and had a fantastic meal. The beef in blackbean sauce from the "sizzler" menu was excellent. Very friendly welcome from all the staff, and excellent service. In conclusion, Great staff, great food at sensible prices and highly recommended.

We didn't book but may be best to as it was very busy at lunchtime on a Saturday, we got the last restaurant table. A bar menu and a restaurant menu had most options covered though you had to eat bar food in the bar, which was ok as the bar menu has sandwiches and meals on it, so if one wants a sandwich and the other more of a meal then you are ok on this menu. The tables in the bar are very low though. Service was good considering how busy it was. We were overcharged but quickly and professionally rectified, a genuine mistake as we did a 2 course from one menu and a starter from another, so it was a bit complicated admittedly. If using sat nav once iit says you are there and you can,t see it....go a bit further down the road. Overall we enjoyed it, it is quite an experience, the layout of the bar, central, is one of only 3 in England. Worth a trip.
