All Hopes No Promises Lancaster in Lancaster

Spot on gaff! Free games, good food and nice service 👌

Best food we have had definitely come again

Really quick service, food was fantastic and staff were all really friendly

Great little spot. Awesome burgers, great beers, service was friendly and spot on. Arcade downstairs was a bonus. Will definitely return!

Brilliant place to eat. I had the halloumi burger and I will truly say it was the best burger I have ever had. The burger was juicy, the lettuce was crunchy fresh and the fries were perfectly spiced and seasoned. Along with it, we had halloumi fries and a gravy dunk that was graciously given to us by the manger, who was a pleasure to talk to and truly knows what it means to take care of his customers. You can tell all the ingredients are fresh and fairly priced as well - the food could easily be priced higher. We ordered cocktails that were excellent twists on classics. The atmosphere was top tier, especially the retro video games in the basement which added great entertainment to an already excellent experience.

Absolutely amazing with nut allergies, listened, understood and then made the appropriate changes to suit!! You’re the best, we’ll be back!!

Great place, they really care about how you want your burger, do not be afraid to ask them about how you need it cooking. I need my burgers medium well and the chef cooked it to perfection. The gravy dunker was a great addition for your chips and chicken strips, and they also prepare drinks to your speciality as well. Overall I would really recommend the place, down to earth, fresh good burgers, and at the end of the day, why would you want anything else?

Amazing food! The burgers and fries were sooo good, the staff are funny as hell and friendly too! Atmosphere was great a little loud but perfect atmosphere for drinking, the menu is hilarious too! A must visit if coming to Lancaster!!!

Fantastic. The basement has loads of retro games and arcade. The food is great.

there was a fly in my burger. DO NOT eat here.

Very friendly service, very tasty burger and amazing chips. Very reasonably priced. Thoroughly recommend (and we made our train in plenty of time...thank you).

Excellent every time! Best place in Lancaster

Really cool downstairs gaming room with a selection of arcade / retro games. I was disappointed with the food however, the burger and chips I had were expensive and not as good as I was hoping to be. Pints are also rather expensive

I visited this fabulous establishment for the first time yesterday with my Son, Nephew, Neice and my Neice's boyfriend, who were visiting us from another area and I have to say from walking in, to walking out our experience was FANTASTIC!! The staff were really friendly from the get go and the gaming room in the cellar was a MASSIVE hit with the teenagers I came with!! Now, onto the star of the show.... THE FOOD!! WOW!! WOW!! WOW!! We all ordered burgers of various varities with chips. Every single one of us said it was THE best burger(s) we'd ever had!! 😱 An absolute taste sensation!! The chips with the signature sauce were TO DIE FOR!! Like dipping chips in liquid heaven! My nephew is a chef and was trying his damndest to work out what was in the sauce! 🤣🤣 Even the seasoned salt they brought us to sprinkle on our chips was a delight on the palate! 🤤 Staff 10/10 🥰 Surroundings 10/10 🎮 Food 1000/10 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Coming back at the weekend, this time with my husband so I can experience it all again!! 🤩 A massive thank you to the staff for making it such a fantastic and memorable lunch for us! ❤️ xx

Fantastic place and amazing food. Great console and arcade games. Did I mention the food is amazing 😋 been again a couple months later and still absolutely amazing

Really enjoyed our visit today. Staff were all incredibly friendly and accommodating. We ordered two burgers and upgraded our fries to the poutine with chicken and halloumi options with a side of gravy, a pint of coke and a kinder milkshake. We paid £40 and were completely stuffed! Would not hesitate to come back here, especially when we are less hungover so we can tried the great selection of craft beer and cocktails. Cheers

Really tasty. Love the sauce go with chips. Popped in with three friends, we changed our spot from outside to inside for coldness. Lovely stuff helped us to clean the table and served food with smile. Love the stuff.

This is some truly mind blowing flavour. No wonder that this restaurant has jetted to the top of Lancaster's online rankings. The fried chicken stacked poutine fries were outrageously good. The bacon double cheeseburger was a 10/10. Great staff gave a warm welcome. Thanks Alistair, Caitlin and Dan. Pineapple IPA to go with that? Sign me up!

Been here 3-4 times now. The food had been outstanding everytime. Great service and quality venue. Can't fault it at all.

Absolutely banging place for food & great atmosphere, if you haven't been you wil defo wanna go back as the burgers & chicken are Absolutely tasty😋 plus can't forget the gravy which is spot on 👍 & downstairs theres every retro arcade game can think of you can play , been here many times now & the staff & manager are so welcoming when you arrive.

Outstanding burgers and good selection of beers. Awesome cocktails too. Good to have this in Lancaster.

Absolutely the place to eat in Lancaster! Had the 8 quid lunch menu and it's fantastic value. Get a huge amount. If you want a great burger and chips for the best value then forget Burger King or McDonald's, this is THE place to eat. Friendly staff and freshly cooked food. Awesome

As an American, I went into this with an “I’ll be the judge of this” attitude, but I gotta say, this was hands down the best burger I’ve had in the US or UK. Perfectly seasoned, flame grilled, good sized. Absolutely phenomenal. Huge portion or chips that were so moreish. Cannot fault this burger joint, 10 on 10. Worth the £18 train fare to get here. Will def be back.

Nice and friendly service. Took the £8 lunch deal and it's all worth it. The burger was really tasty and you get a decent portion of chips to go with it as well as a drink. Well worth the price will definitely go back for one of their speciality burgers.

Food was amazing, loved the atmosphere and staff / owners friendly and welcoming - lovely dog 🐾❤️.

Couple times I’ve been now and I thoroughly enjoy it each time, the staff are lovely and the food is just something else. Definitely worth the money and the cocktails too are gorgeous!! Can’t recommend enough <3

The gaming room is Amazing the service was incredible and their was a really nice atmosphere with music and themed art

Great pub & restaurant. The burgers were lovely and came with huge portions of lively seasoned fries. Cocktails and craft beers were very nice with a good selection to choose from. The only downside is there is very little seating available so can be a real struggle to get a table. There's an added bonus/surprise downstairs which will keep you and any older children entertained but I'm not going to spoil it for you here 😉

First in today, service was quick, the food was piping hot and tasted amazing! The menu is decent and the names are quirky and got a laugh out of me. Will be coming back again for an evening! Picture of my almost demolished meal because I forgot to take one before I started.

Very good place, close to railway station. Good people, coffee and cake.

Absolute perfection! Just been for the second time and it was even better than I remembered! Delicious food, great beer and fantastic service.. what more can I say 🤷🏼🤤🍔

Amazing burgers and a cool basement with all kinds of games you can play. (Street fighter, pac man, FIFA etc..)

Great staff very helpful and polite, Inc door security fella 🙂 Great beer with lots to choose from. Great little venue in the heart of Lancaster with some nice quirky decorations scattered around the walls, my favourite was the E.T Would definitely recommend for food smashed sauce 👌🏻 plenty of chips with cracking burgers, daughter loved the halloumi. Thank you All Hopes No Promises 5 ⭐

Worst service in all of Lancaster. Got yelled at by management for taking my time before ordering an overpriced and frankly disgusting drink. Rude staff ruined the night completely.

Food was good tasty and the eight quid deal was reasonably priced and very tasty.

Manager was rude and drinks are awful while expensive

I had a cocktail from here and it made me a better man. Plus good atmosphere, friendly staff and a jolly night

Amazing burgers , beer and pacman!!

We went today 18-02-24 for some tea and I have to say that was the Best Food and Service I’ve had in a long Time. The Staff was Friendly and The Food was amazing!! I would Highly Recommend to anyone to try these guys. Overall I’m full up in a Food comer ha.

Just as good as Smashed in Preston, by which I mean this place is excellent and highly recommended! Tastiest burgers I know of, lovely staff and great value .

Great burgers and good beer definitely worth a visit never disappointed here.

Amazing burgers and fries with various to choose from. Great to be able to buy Steiners of beer too😋🍻

SMASHED IT! Second time back. This time we bought the kids. They loved it as much as us. They said can we come back everyday! Outstanding food and service.

Not been out in Lancaster for a while, so no idea how long this place has been around, but it is an awesome little spot. Looks great, food was delicious, beer and cocktails decent price, everything hit the sweet spot to make this a great find to visit before we went to the cinema. Oh and did I mention there's a games room downstairs too, it could not be more delightful. Oh yes it could, there was also a young lad who came in with a guitar and family and who sang his heart out for everyone. Amazing. Best experience of a new bar in Lancaster I've had in a long time.

Update: the owner has got back to us to apologise so I am increasing the rating from 1 to 2 stars, however the accessibility issues still remain. Hopefully that can be remedied and we'll have opportunity to try the food at some point in the future. We were highly recommended this place by a close friend as supposedly the food is excellent. However, we wouldn't know. My wife uses a wheelchair and whilst there was a steep ramp up to the door, one door is too narrow to fit the chair through and the other was bolted shut. Staff saw us struggling to get in, but continued cleaning, it was a customer who ended up opening the second door to help us. Once we got in we quickly saw there were no accessible tables. The only low tables had benches built into them so the wheelchair wouldn't have been able to get under them. At a push my wife could've transferred onto them, but as they had no back support available it would have caused her agony. There were 2 members of staff on. 1 was sorting out a large party and the other focuses on cleaning a table and not offering us assistance. After a couple of minutes of embarrassed waiting, with no assistance and whilst the only tables we could possibly be sit at were being set up for a party due later in the day we left, feeling totally ignored and embarrassed. TL:DR This place isnt currently accessible to those with mobility issues.

Went for lunch. Great atmosphere and excellent service. Burger lunch deal was superb. I can highly recommend this eatery / bar. The bar person was super friendly and chef very accommodating.

Burgers are amazing with plenty of fries, great music and atmosphere. Staff are friendly. 100% recommend!

Probably the best place to eat and drink in Lancaster. If you want the nicest burgers and chicken meals and a good crack with the staff this is the place to go.....and they have Rattlers cider. What more do you want .

The food here is amazing, I had the O'Doyle Rules burger and it was amazing! You can order a pot of gravy to dip your burger and chips in too! This is a very popular place and was extremely busy when we arrived. The staff initially put us downstairs, but soon found a table for us upstairs. Staff were very friendly and the food and drinks exceptional.

Insanely good food - possibly the best burgers I've ever had. Staff are so welcoming and down to earth too!

Absolutely beautiful food amazing hospitality

Great bar, lovely atmosphere, very friendly staff and fab food 😃

Fantastic venue in the heart of Lancaster. An absolute must visit. Great food, great staff and great vibe.

The best hot chocolate in town! A lovely place to go, great staff.

Love visiting here, staff are really great and the food is amazing. Highly recommended if you enjoy burgers, smashed sauce is fantastic!

This spot quickly secured itself as one of my local faves. The food is unreal, music is always great, and the staff are super nice. The drinks selection is also brilliant, and being able to pop downstairs and play all the super nostalgic games is fab.

Absolutely fantastic experience! Definitely my favourite place in Lancaster!

Good food, great place i'll be back

Food good, but an exceptionally rude manager/owner

Great staff, great food, great vibes. This is easily the best bar in Lancaster.

Best burger and hotdogs in town food till 10pm and good beer well worth checking out

Brilliant atmosphere, great food and excellent selection of craft ales. One of the best burger places in Lancaster and some of the best service, especially from Alastair and Alex.

Great atmosphere friendly staff beer is great Alex n Alastair great customer service

Amazing food, friendly service, great atmosphere, loved the music being played. Proper ground beef patties, fab hot dog sausages. Good varied menu options. Dog friendly too. Will be back very soon. Thanks to Alistair 🤛😋👏

Great place for food and the retro arcade!

Great food! Brilliant atmosphere, can’t fault this place. Service was top notch!

Amazing place and amazing staff! Shout out to Big Al, he’s great!

Cracking burger! Great service & a nice little retro arcade in the basement. Would definitely recommend a visit

The burgers we had were incredible. I had the Harry Potter themed burger and was honestly one of the best burgers I have eaten. My partner had one of the vegetarian burgers and said it was hands down the best burger she had ever eaten (vegetarian and non-vegi). The portion size was big, making it great value for money. The atmosphere was unlike the other places in Lancaster and a nice surprise of a small games room down the stairs. The staff were very friendly, which added a personal touch to the whole experience. We will be going back again and would highly recommend to try it out.

Everything was absolutely amazing!!! Food was so good, so much of it too so well worth it - drinks cheap and you really cannot beat the atmosphere, thank you alistair you and your team were brilliant!!

Food was excellent, fresh and very tasty. Will certainly be back and leave the car at home next time so I can sample the bar too.

Nice staff let me use charger Nice place

Top quality service. Amazing food and drinks. Would deffo recommend. Alestair, Lee, Leon and B Dog do an amazing job 👏

Alistair…what an asset to the business. We continually come just to see him (along with the great prices).

Chef came out to ask if I wanted any different sauce on my burger bc I asked for no smashed sauce thought this was incrediblly kind. Also gave us a free pot of gravy.

Amazing atmosphere 10/10 staff amazing would highly recommend student /non student friendly just an amazing place to spend time !!!

Love this place! staff are amazing, so friendly and really care about your experience

Friendliest place in town - retro vibes, massive food, and an arcade in the basement (watch the stairs!).

The food here was amazing, it arrived really quickly and was so tasty. They had a great selection of drinks with some locally sourced options too. Staff were really friendly and welcoming. We had our food and then headed down to the basement with our drinks to play on the free retro games consoles. Had a great time and will definitely be back.

Such a good place. If you want fast food come here....unlike mainstream fast food like KFC and McDonalds this place is all freshly made, really amazing burgers and a reasonable price. Excellent choice of beers it's my favourite place for a quick bite to eat. Staff are amazing too and it's even got a free gaming cellar to top it all off.

Best food in lancaster and such an amazing team who you can really have a laugh with.

Staff are fantastic. Had the best time with a group of pals. Food was flavourful and plenty 👌

Been 3 times in a week food been brilliant everytime

One of the best burgers I've had! 🍔 Amazing food and really chatty owner who brought us out some gravy to try!

If I could rate these guys higher, I would. Absolutely amazing food, incredible service and such good value for money. Cannot wait to come back here. So happy they've opened in Lancaster and long may they stay. This is exactly what we needed. Food quality is fantastic and I'm already daydreaming about my next burger and gravy 🤤

Best burger and fries I've ever tasted. Staff awesome, food came quickly, and the music playing in there was fab. I'll be back again and again.

Very warm greeting. Staff are extremely welcoming and went above and beyond. The food was amazing and excellent value for money. The retro gaming in the basement is all free to use and takes you back to when you was a kid!! Give this place a try you most definitely will not be disappointed this place is a hidden gem and a bonus to lancaster well done all hopes keep up the good work!!❤️❤️❤️❤️

Ordered two burgers, amazing- best burger in lancaster! came with a mountain of really good fries, had the chicken strips and gravy and oh my good that gravy is better than anything

The best burger in Lancaster, nowhere even comes close. Great pints, I've never seen Rattler on draught before. All Hopes No Promises, making burgers great again.

Honestly, best place around here by miles. Staff are super friendly and the burgers are insane! Get yourselves down!!

Best burger place in Lancaster, as well as a retro gaming bar down stairs which any millennial would shed a tear once they see it.

Quick service despite it being quite busy and absolute banging music

Amazing food and lovely service. Best burger I have ever had!

Delicious food staff are lovely and great music, the staff who danced to a Taylor Swift really made my day
