We went on recommendation from a couple that we met on holiday. What a great experience, good food, good venue, good service, overall an experience that we have repeated and will continue to repeat in the future. I would commend this Gastropub to all, you will not be disappointed.

The railway Gastro Pub. Euxton near chorley has great food. We went on a Monday evening and got half price steaks. I had a rump steak with real chips finished in dripping plus all the trimmings for just over £8. Sweets are delicious -try summer pudding its divine. All the staff were smiley, friendly and very helpful,, nothing was too much trouble. You need to book a table it gets packed.

good food, and good value for money, we did the early bird menu and would say that it did not compromise on quality

The Railway at Euxton serves exceptional food, and their black pudding starter is yet to be surpassed in any of the other restaurants I visit. The staff are efficient, polite and caring. A visit here is one to be remembered for the correct reasons.

Great value for money, friendly and professional staff. Steaks are top drawer and we are picky. Great Gastro food, pleasant atmosphere and good choice to accommodate all tastes.
We do a 32 mile round trip and think it is worth every mile of it.
Enjoy

This Gastro Pub is local to us and we have been many times and had some great meals. Whilst the prices may seem high you can get half price steak and chips on a Monday which is the best we have ever had. There is an early diners option which is available up to 7.30pm during the week. Last time we went I had catch of the day which was sea bass which was cooked to perfection. My husband loves the roast dinners on a Sunday. Mushrooms on toast is another memorable dish (a starter) as it includes a little truffle oil. If you have room the sticky toffee pudding with cinder toffee ice cream is just to die for. Drinks aren't cheap but we normally get a bottle of wine between the two of us as these are priced at reasonable rates.

Ever longed for top notch food? You know, the really good stuff that you see award winning chefs dish out on super large plates with all the fancy stuff? Me too. The only thing that stops me is the price and the stuffy atmosphere that comes on a side plate with passionless staff with no personality in the usual places.
The Railway has fantastic food in a cracking pub like surroundings. With 'real' down to earth people serving you in a lovely attitude. The food is amazing. Made all the better by a proper pint in the pub just on the otherside of the bar to the restaurant! Bliss.
A real gold mine this one. Shhhhh.

dined on sun 23rd Aug, Food was fab, we would of had dessert and coffee but having been sat for 30 minutes no staff came to ask if we required anything else, we asked a passing waitress for coffee which never came, so we paid and left. Think we must have been unlucky with the staff, but would return.

Dined at the Railway today (Sunday 4th July) with my husband and what a delightful surprise! We were just passing after a day out and looking for somewhere to eat. We were so pleased we stopped,it has restored our faith in "pub" dining. The food was excellent and staff charming. I just wish it was at the bottom of my road!

Now I don't normally write bad reviews for restaurants, especially ones that are right on my doorstep but.................
I don't know who's writing these comments which give excellent reviews to a very ordinary restaurant but they mustn't get out much!
I've visited The Railway@Euxton about 4 times since it opened and not once has it been a particularly enjoyable experience. The first time I visited, it had only been only several weeks but there's not excuse for food being brought to the table virtually cold and the Bernaise sauce that I order to accompany my sirloin steak had the consistency of water.
On the second visit (Grandma's birthday) a rowdy argument broke out on a table close to where we were sitting. The argument continued for several minutes and the management failed to do anything about it.
On the third visit (a friends birthday) We waited well over an hour for our starters to arrive after being seated. I ordered a blackpudding starter which came to the table very nearly cold. The waiter took it back to the chef and then returned with the same plate with the reply 'the chef said its meant to be like that'. I can't think of anything I'd less like to do than eat cold blood! My girlfriend sent her lamb main course back twice because it was raw (not rare) in the middle.
On the 4th visit the waitress took our order, then returned to inform us that they'd sold out of both meals we chose. So we changed the order. The waitress returned because she forgot to ask how my girlfriend would like her tuna cooking, then returned again to tell her that the tuna was also sold out! After waiting for over an hour for our starters, the main courses where brought to the table! We'd both had had enough at this point, so we left without eating.
After complaining to the management, they very kindly invited us back for a complimentary meal. Although the night went very smoothly (because the owner personally took care of us) the standard of cuisine just isn't good. The chef can write a good menu but he sure as hell can't cook one!
This restaurant is trying to be something that its not capable of being. With a similar menu and prices as The Clog & Billycock in Pleasington this is a far better option.
