Overpriced, disgusting food made even worse by rude, miserable staff. You can purchase much better food at Marks and Spencer in the main foyer for a fraction of the price. Avoid.

I have been visiting Oliver's for several months and noticed a gradual deterioration in service and quality. The choice of dinner options is very limited often nothing more than a burger or hot dog for an evening meal. The casseroles are often quite watery. The portions are very small, often the size of a child's meal. It's expensive for what small portions you get. It needs a much better choice of meals. I've often left more hungry than when I arrived.Some of the staff are quite miserable and need to improve their customer relations manners. Some staff are not very polite and look like they don't want to be there. On a few occasions they have even turned off some of the lights an hour before closing leaving you in dimly lit areas.Considering this is a hospital canteen I feel it needs a radical shake up.

I have never had a hot meal from the place. Also asking for anything gluten free. It's also far to expensive for visitors I for one won't be eating there again.

I have reviewed Oliver's in the past. This is a second review to highlight a few things, some good and some not so good. The good stuff first. They have modernised the deli! Now we have a deli that turns your usual sandwiches etc into a hot-treat. This has now become a favourite spot at lunch time. The staff will add cheese and fast-heat your fast-food to make it ever more delicious. Great stuff!On the flip side, I am really annoyed that they close lunch so early - at 13:45. I mean, many doctors, nurses, etc. sometimes don't get free until half past two or even three, and this means that they cannot get hot lunch. Also, on Saturdays and Sundays, the entire place closes at 13:45 hours and there is no place one can find food in the hospital except for vending machines across the trust - and that is nothing but chocolates, cereal bars and crisps. Not real food. This makes it imperative for the restaurant to stay open till 07:00 p.m. on weekends as well and continue to provide soup and supper on these days as they do on the week days,

Después de una cita en el hospital fuimos a Olivers, tuve el hervidor de verduras y mi pareja un pavo barm. El hotpot fue cálida (en algunos lugares), con desastre sobras congeladas patatas, algunas de las hortalizas eran otros duro suave, en general poco atractiva. Mi pareja barm Turquía, en una palabra seca.Nos decepcionó en el pasado, hoy la comida ha sido buena, les salvó de una estrella

Este es el restaurante del hospital, abierto al público. En las comidas hay una excelente variedad de comida, deli.Fuera de horas pico hay una selección menor pero una góndola que sirve pasteles, etc. Zona deHay dos precios, uno para los visitantes y uno para el personal, que parece muy justo.Sólo abre hasta las 2 de la tarde los fines de semana. Que sale sólo Costa.

Located inside the Victoria Hospital where I have been working since mid-November 2015, Oliver's restaurant is also known as the "Canteen" to my fellow-staff members. They are staffed with really friendly professionals. Although I have not met the kitchen staff, my interactions with all the ladies and guys who serve the food, look after the cleanliness of the place, and man the tills have been full of pleasure and happiness. I would like to just say that they make all kinds of food, but, on the whole, they are really excellent at traditional British food. I am sharing some photos here of this marvellous place

Found this place by chance as we walked past, went in for a quick lunchtime drink, stayed for two as the atmosphere was good. Good friendly staff. Nice decor, clean look. The place was empty almost empty when we arrived but soon filled up as local shop and office workers and tourists came in. Family friendly. We didn't eat but food looked good.

The staff are very friendly and the restaurant is very handy for people like myself that have to keep coming to the hospital almost everyday to see a patient. The price of the food was really cheap however the food wasn’t the best so maybe that is probably why. The restaurant is of a good size and is clean and modern. I don’t think I would come back though any time soon, for the food reasons.

Chefs good variety food and good price - very good value for money that is what I like. Can get quite busy at meal times - nice large pleasing area - ample room and there is always somewhere to sit - very quick queue (self service). Canteen staff very nice & helpful.

We have eaten here twice. What a contrast with the hospital eating facilities in other Lancashire Hospitals (especially Preston Royal Infirmary) - and what a contrast with the Costa Coffee in the Reception Area of the Victoria Hospital (downstairs)!Both times were shortly before visiting hour - the first time was in the evening, the second on a Sunday lunchtime. Both times the choice of food was extremely limited and the staff were less than welcoming. I have not eaten such unpleasing institutional food since I was a schoolchild!The only excuse at lunchtime was that we arrived towards closing hour. But it's no wonder that so many of the hospital staff and visitors choose the Costa Coffee, despite the high prices.
