Definitely 5 out of 5! We went as a family with 2 young children and felt so welcome! The cater to everyone! Now do expect to pay a pretty penny for the food however it’s worth every penny! The food is devine, I paid £17.50 for the steak sandwich but it melted in your mouth and the bread was so soft!! We’ll 110% be back again! Even the kids menu had amazing choices!!

Nice place, food good, staff excellent but most annoying thing is having to go to the counter to order, pay, then sit down. Then if you want a dessert or another coffee you have to do it again. The place is not inexpensive so surely they could trust the waitresses (no waiters) to take your order?

Ordered four fish & chip meals in addition to two other choices. All four were served up with overcooked chips many of which were dark brown and crispy. Two members of party did eat the chips. Fish was excellent but chips spoiled what should have been a nice family meal. Nowhere near H U normal standard.

Bought house stuff from here before, called in to look at lights, could not find any (a lot of tacky shiny chrome stuff from China at big money) so went into their Wickentree cafe for some lunch, wish we hadnt bothered. The prices were ridiculous for what was served. "Mango and Brie Crispy Bites served with sweet chilli sauce £5.95..." This was two tiny out of the freezer filo bites deep fried with a thimble of sauce! "Homemade Soup of the Day £6.95..." Decent soup but tiny 1/2 size bowl with a small piece of bread.. "Hot Chicken and Bacon Caesar Wrap with hot chicken fillet, dry cured bacon, cos lettuce, parmesan cheese and caesar dressing £10.50.." Gosh, sounds great however reality was way diffrent! Not hot, no cheese and about 1/2 the size of a wrap you get for lunch from Tesco! "Large Chips £4.25" These were a joke, a small shaker of frozen fries, we questioned the portion, they said it was the large, we told them it was ridiculous and sent it back for a credit. The pleasant person serving agreed and said it is crazy, poor staff having to suffer needless customer issues. We dont mind paying the prices provided its decent value and quality but not when they are taking the mick. No wonder the owners cut about in Porsches and Bentleys with multi-million pound homes. Fair play if they gave decent value but shame on em' for ripping normal folk off! AVOID Stick to John Lewis...

We recently visited Housing Units and decided to call into this restaurant -to be honest we were freezing and did not realise there was a cafe in the other building as we had parked nearer here! We enquired if we could just have a coffee and cake to warm up and they said yes sure! I was most surprised to see a very stylish Parisian styled restaurant with a pianist playing! We had a lovely coffee and cake -it was pricer than a cafe but not crazy and what you would expect from the surroundings. The food looked lovely and the ambiance was really nice -would visit again if we were passing and clearly some people go out of the way to go there and ring to book as there was someone doing just this as I was ordering!

My partner John and I visit Wickentree Restaurant on a regular basis. The staff are always extremely friendly and professional. We felt that we just had to write this review to praise two of Wickentree’s Jewels the lovely Rita and Barbara. Attention to detail and outstanding customer service is what these two ladies excel at, we always feel special and valued; even after being away for a few months they remembered us today and called us by our first names it made our day and to top it all off the food was delicious. Wickentree is where you go for the food but stay for the service from these two lovely ladies, they always greet customers with a genuine warm smile; but for us we can’t thank Rita and Barbara enough for looking after us, they give great advice on food choices, prompt and friendly service they really do make us feel like valued customers and look after our every need. Rita and Barbara have the gift of genuine enthusiasm and warmth for people, both ladies have given us the best customer experience on all our visits. Well done team Wickentree and special thanks to Rita and Barbara.

Very disappointing afternoon tea. Sandwiches lacked imagination, I am vegetarian and don't like eggs and my only option was cream cheese, a bit poor in 2018. The rest of the food was underwhelming to say the least, very small scone, and two pieces of sponge cake one replacing the flan I couldn't eat because of an allergy to kiwi, again a lack of imagination. Oh dear won't be returning, not at £17.95 a head......

Artisan breads are so tasty, full of body and less thick - please can these breads be used at the Wickentree.

Had an afternoon tea priced at £17.95. You have to order at the till. The sandwiches are not freshly made to order and lack a bit of flair and imagination. Egg, cream cheese, chicken and stuffing etc. The garnish was about 6 small leaves. The so-called "champagne jelly" didn't impress. Obviously my uneducated palette could not identify the subtle difference between this and ordinary Hartley's. There was a small slice of sponge cake, a small fruit tart which collapsed when lifted due to the soggy bottom, and finally a scone that could only be described as rock hard with the usual jar of jam and a similar jar re-cycled to hold the whipped cream. When we complained about the scones it was explained that sometimes the staff "warm them" (presumably in a microwave). It means they rapidly dry out and go hard. The replacements were little better. Not that I buy them but, I imagine really cheap supermarket scones taste similar. They were not good. As it's not table service, it's not always easy to catch someone's attention to replenish hot drinks. The surroundings are pleasant and on the whole so were the staff. However, as I would mostly choose places to eat based on the quality of the fare, this is one I'll be giving a miss in future.

Called in around 5.30pm for a quick cuppa and a cake. Place was virtually empty and the staff were congregated around the till area. I ordered cup of tea and a vanilla slice. I was flabbergasted when I was charged £7.45!! The cake was nothing special and it cost £4.75. The waitress brought the items to the table and gave me a tiny spoon to eat the cake. I asked for cake fork and she just pointed to the tiny spoon!!

Absolutely fantastic food and even better service from Rita and the girls! The scrambled eggs are a personal favourite and highly recommended. Get yourself one of their privilege cards and make this place a regular treat!

Lovely lunch in the restaurant, it was extremely busy, but we were warned when booking that there may be a wait for food as all the teachers in Oldham must be having lunch there as it was half term! Quite amusing as my daughter who was making the booking is a teacher.

My partner and I visited the Wickentree Restaurant as I was keen to introduce him to the world of afternoon tea. It is safe to say that he wasn’t disappointed. We both decided to choose the gentlemen’s afternoon tea as it offered a great selection of sweet and savoury treats. The gentlemen’s afternoon tea consisted of a mini Yorkshire pudding with roast beef, mini fish and chips, pork pie, sandwich, chutney, scone and a cream cake. Although it isn’t table service for ordering the staff couldn’t do enough for you and were very attentive at refilling cups of tea & coffee. I would recommend booking a table in advance so not to be disappointed as it can get quite busy in there.

A great shopping destination that has furnished most of my home. The restaurant has a chap tinkling the ivories on a lovely piano. Always lovely staff who are very helpful and always smiling. The Afternoon Tea looked amazing - but we only saw this after ordering. Missed the little tent card on the table - waitress should of brought this to our attention when seating us. You have to go to the counter to order and pay - it’s a lovely place that should really do full service?? Onto the food Caesar Salad with Chicken & Bacon big tick from my bro - just needed a little extra dressing (which was provided). Cheese on toast for the missus - which she absolutely loved, random bit of bacon on the side which was awesome but not really required. A bit of confusion with my dodgy eyesight and a scribbled specials board - Sunday Lunch was on my agenda - I saw chicken or pork with trimmings etc. But I didn’t read the pork was a sandwich, only the chicken was a dinner. So disappointed to receive a pork sandwich which failed to impress. I am going to be super critical because I was already on a downer from not getting the pork dinner I thought I was getting - so apologies as I made the original mistake.

Been in a couple of times recently whilst Christmas bauble shopping and as usual everything was great! We was greeted and waited on by the lovely Rita, actually I don’t think the place would be the same without her! Going again soon on Thursday evening to try the new autumn menu 2 for £25 which is great vale 2 courses each and a glass of wine.

I met a business associate for lunch and the service was spot on, the food was delicious and well priced. We were served by Rita and she couldn't do enough for us, she is a credit to the company. Will definitely be coming back.

Visited 5th October to take advantage of their Thursday promotion. Two courses with a glass of wine for £24.99 per couple. The added advantage is that up to two children eat free. We took our grandchildren and the food was excellent. The atmosphere is very relaxed with a chap playing the piano in the background. The children were given crayons and sheets of colouring paper to occupy themselves until food came. The set menu provided great choice for ourselves and the children. Overall great value and highly recommended.

I visited the wickentree restaurant for the first time today and I will definitely be going again! From the moment we arrived we was greeted by such a lovely and friendly member of staff (Rita) who went above and beyond to make our time there enjoyable. The food was gorgeous and the strawberry and cream tart was amazing! Would definitely recommend and looking forward to returning again.

My sister and I had lunch here today. I can recommend the salmon and dill sandwich, it was delicious. Like other people who have commented I think the food for what it is is very expensive. Good service and relaxing atmosphere though.

Ordered four fish & chip meals in addition to two other choices. All four were served up with overcooked chips many of which were dark brown and crispy. Two members of party did eat the chips. Fish was excellent but chips spoiled what should have been a nice family meal. Nowhere near H U normal standard.

Called in for the fresh carvery today.Freshly cooked gammon,but when I asked for some gammon, I was served with some which was hidden behind the fresh joint.Not fresh,a different colour to the fresh joint.I thought the idea of Toby carvery is that you see the fresh meat carved in front of you.Spoke to the manager and he said he would check about what I said and walked off and served someone else.Very unprofessional for a manager.
