Out Lane Social in Chorley

Cosy and inviting environment. The best food and a great selection of wines. Friendly engaging staff. We enjoy bar snacks and drinks to full meals.

A wonderful cozy place with food that put me in a state of pure bliss. My respect to the chef of this restaurant. 11 out of 10

Just love this place! Amazing food and atmosphere. Wine choice wonderful. Staff extremely tentative.

Visited for food and drinks on the terrace. Service terrible everyone seemed to be waiting ages for food and drinks. Took our drinks order and waited over half an hour waiting for the drinks and menus, walked away in the end!

After spending about 2 hours trying to decide where to go for a decent Sunday dinner, we discovered Out Lane Social. All I can say is we are glad we found this place! The Sunday dinner was delicious! Everything on the plate was cooked to perfection. There was so much flavour to every element. The service was great too. Everyone who served us were polite and efficient in their roll. Already looking forward to our next visit. Thanks again!

A beautiful place with great atmosphere stunning location in the beautiful village of Croston. Made to feel very welcome friendly staff great service beautiful decor well priced fantastic food definitely will be returning.

We’ve visited twice in the past month, first time as a couple and second time as a family of 4, both times food and service has been consistently brilliant. The beef roast and pork loin are incredible and very filling, we didn’t have room for desserts. The kids meals were very generous in size and tasty. Our daughter said the pizza is the best she’s ever had. The restaurant is cosy and has a lovely atmosphere. It also has a lovely terrace for outside drinks, we enjoyed a glass of wine here and it was a nice little sun trap. By far the best place for a Sunday roast locally!

We went for lunch and really enjoyed our experience. The food was beautifully presented and really good in all respects. The wine selection is excellent. All the staff were pleasant and attentive . We will certainly go back again and I’d highly recommend this restaurant

Regularly eat at OutLane as it consistently delivers. Had a fantastic sirloin steak last night (curtesy of butcherfarrell), one of the best I’ve ever had. Preceded our meal with drinks in their newly expanded bar area. Cocktails, beautiful wine and a great range of IPA on tap. Lovely atmosphere as always. Highly recommend.

We had a lovely Sunday afternoon at Out Lane Social. We both had the pork loin which was delicious, and the portions were very generous! Enjoyed with a very tasty Merlot. We also managed to find some room for dessert, the sticky toffee pudding and the lemon posset. All excellent. Service was friendly and professional, as always here. Would definitely recommend a visit to this lovely restaurant.

Very busy and so noisy we had to move tables as ours wasn't ready. Starter three of us had soup no flavour what's so ever was like wall paper paste. Our main courses were dreadful my steak was tough my friend her monkfish was all bone. The noise was unbearable could not wait to get out . Staff were pleasant though. Never again this was our second visit.

I went with my husband for dinner and we really had a great time, we ate delicious food and the food was of excellent quality. Recommended

Just started offering brunch, so we tried it out. Well worth a look in.

Sharing boards.. either cheese / meat / pate! But not a mixture 🤔 which would have been nice. Cheese board was dry (no butter) and no extras like olives 😔

Great pizza great price, simple yet tastes amazing

A little confused as we ordered 2 pizza and were told we could eat at the terrace but an extra £3 per pizza was added as we ate at the terrace. Really, we had no idea we would be charged an extra £6. Be warned before you dine out

Great venue with wonderful staff

Live this place. Great food and service every time.

The best roast beef. Super fresh horseradish . The six of us all agreed 👍

Beautifully aesthetically pleasing place with lovely oldie music ! This restaurant is 100/100. I ordered a sirloin steak sandwich and it was one of the best steaks I have ever had. It also came with free complimentary bread for our starters which was a lovely touch. I want to visit again !🤍

Popped in for Sunday lunch as we were turned away from another pub. What a find! This place is amazing, the quality of the food was superb, fresh vegetables and beautifully tender beef for the Sunday roast (as per the picture, two thick slices of beef, roast potatoes, mash, Yorkshire pudding, carrot, tender-stem broccoli, plenty of gravy and a separate dish of cauliflower cheese, I would say a generous medium sized roast). Dessert was a described as a chocolate ‘delice’ with a blackcurrant sorbet, topped with salted caramel popcorn. That was very nice and quenched my desire for some sweet even though it wasn’t largest portion it was very rich. My mum had the lamb shank and polished it off completely (which is rare for her as she is very picky). The staff were courteous and attentive and deserved their tip. My only slight gripe relating to the atmosphere (hence the lost point) was the live music which although the guitarist was very talented (and chose a good set of recognisable songs for the middle aged cliental), was a little loud on my visit, but I am sure that this isn’t always the case. If you are looking for a relaxed Sunday lunch that is a step up from most pubs then this is definitely worth a go!

Myself and Husband visited here last night on an impromptu evening out. Service was very welcoming and friendly from start to finish and the food was absolutely delicious! We went for the sharer Chateaubriand and it was cooked to perfection. Washed down with a lovely bottle of Merlot. It’s been a while where we have been somewhere and enjoyed it this much, we will be back. Highly recommend!

We had a really good meal here on boxing day. We thought the menu was small but really well executed. Service was very good and all in all a perfect choice for our family. We would definitely recommend this venue and we will be back. Saw you did not charge service, so I will drop by with a tip in the coming days. Thanks

Can't beat it was fantastic. I love the coffee and it was a very relaxing the staff are welcoming Even when the dog barked at the ring doorbell

Lovely place to visit indoors and outdoors

Impeccable food and service, and stunning restaurant! What more do you want!

Great food especially their Sunday Roast, lovely decor, friendly staff 👌

brilliant place next level food can not wait to go back

Amazing service. Touch of class in Croston Recently visited Out Lane for a Birthday meal and couldn’t have higher praise! Our party of 5 all ordered different starters and mains, each as flavoursome as the next. In particular, I would recommend the salmon starter and pork main. Both are delicious and presented beautifully (not easy with pork!). Staff where attentive throughout making it feel like a true celebration. Overall great value for money too. This restaurant is offering city dining at a village price. Check it out

Another great Sunday Lunch here. Looking forward to our next visit, especially the New Years Eve evening. Thanks again

Treated to a belated birthday lunch today. Chris Newby the chef made all the courses absolutely fabulous. Extremely tasty and beautifully cooked and presented food. The staff were very attentive and welcoming.

Just visited Out Lane Social for the first time and it was a lovely experience. The staff were very pleasant and friendly and the food was fresh and well cooked.We left feeling pleasantly full and we are already looking forward to our next visit.

First time here and we weren’t disappointed. Nice decor and ambiance. Attentive and friendly staff (special shout out to Fran, Matty and Denis). Excellent tasty food, well presented. Good selection of aperitifs and wines. Rioja Blanc !

We had a great meal with friendly staff. Definitely booking again.

We had a fantastic meal for our wedding anniversary. Top quality food, excellent friendly service and not stuffy. Could have eaten anything on the menu. Opted for fish. Both courses were excellent and the mussels were genuinely the best I have ever had. Expected it to be expensive but found it very reasonable for the quality of food we had. Couldn't manage dessert but the ones I saw others eating looked good. We are going back next week to celebrate 2 family birthdays.

Another excellent meal . Food and staff were great. Atmosphere perfect . Not too loud , not too quiet . Just perfect

First visit here since moving to Lancashire. Wonderful, well cooked, well presented Sunday lunch. Best for a long time. See you again soon.

First time here, food was excellent, service friendly and unobtrusive. Best Sunday lunch in a long while! And very good value for the price. We will be back! X

Had a fantastic meal at The Out Lane Social. The pork chop was perfectly cooked, and the Caesar salad complemented it well. The staff was incredibly responsive, professional, and welcoming. A delightful dining experience overall.

Food was wonderful, staff were amazing- very friendly and attentive. A lovely atmosphere, can't wait to return! Thanks guys!

The food, absolutely amazing!! The staff, super lovely!!

Dropped in to Out Lane Social last minute after being thoroughly disappointed by another restaurant and their cold, mediocre Sunday roast which was inedible. The staff here were so accommodating, finding us a table and making us feel very welcome. The atmosphere was great and the food even more so. The warm treacle bread whilst we waited for our mains was a lovely touch. Sunday roast was amazing and the beef tartare equally so. Can't wait to come and visit again.

Really enjoyed it here. Food was fabulous, we had the Sunday roast dinners, pork and beef, and the dessert was out of this world. Atmosphere was great.

Probably one of the best restaurants we have tried recently. Fantastic food and wine a great atmosphere. The new menu is great. Can’t wait to go back for more.

Service is a joke food worse again ..poisoned off oysters ill for 5 days ..abnoxius bar man ..avoid

First visit and a pleasant surprise. The menu is a treat and we enjoyed every course. Attentive service and fab wine. We will be back again no doubt.

Amazing food, best steak I've had, service was professional and fun. Definitely recommend. We will be back. Thank you

Loved this place, can't wait until we return

I’ve been here a few times. The first to try the new pizza van on the front and what can I say other than magnificent! I couldn’t get enough of the pepperoni pizza with garlic drizzle 🥰 We returned with our tribe yesterday for a Sunday roast beef meal, everyone agreed that it was delicious, the beef was a prime cut and thick too. There was no shortage on the portion that’s for sure❤️

Stopped here for lunch and wow!! Delicious food and excellent host. Couldn't fault it. Will definitely be returning! Thank you x

My wife and I have just hast the finest experience in this wonderful establishment. From the moment of walking in, we were greeted with the warmest of welcomes, by the manager Kerrian. The atmosphere was so warm and relaxed. Straight to the meal. My oysters were so fresh. My wife had sole, and the presentation was phenomenal. The attention to detail.on the starter was complete with the flavour if the dish. As for the roast beef and pork, we both agreed, we have never tasted such succulent cuts of meat..ever. the front of house team worked with such a kind, relaxed attitude. In conclusion, we cannot recommend this absolute diamond of a restaurant. Thankyou so much for the perfect experience. We will definitely be returning. Karl and Paula. x

Always delicious food & lovely service at Out Lane Social. Would definitely recommend.

Recently visited for my wife's birthday and the place didn't disappoint. Fantastic food, great atmosphere and the staff were exceptional in every way. I'm so glad we've found a new place to eat and enjoy delicious food. Some people may feel that the menu is pricey, but don't let that put you off, as the quality is fantastic, and it's worth every penny to experience the wonderful dishes. The flavours, quality of food and presentation wouldn't look out of place in a Michelin starred restaurant.

Food was OK, service was not great. Took a long time to exit the restaurant waiting to pay. Had to ask staff for the bill several times.

Real quality food, specialising in steaks and some seafood. My partner loves their excellent steaks and Sunday roast, I'm a vegetarian and the handful of veggie options are delicious. Quality craft keg beer is served as well as a considerable wine list. The staff are always friendly, helpful and accommodating. A perfect addition to the village.

Had lunch here. Very tastefully done decor. The food was excellent as was the service. It is not cheap but no more than you would expect from somewhere of this quality. Only two parking places in front however.

Good good and drink. Easy parking.

Great food and a great night out 👍

Dined in last week i have to say had a superb experience very warm welcome from amazingly attentive staff very personal in there approach the decor was clean an very fitted to the place loved the "round table" intimate feeling yet spacious enough to still feel private ..... perfect for couples or familys as seen by myself the staff can provide that The food was outstanding cooked to perfection as for the quality it was next level excellent choice of wines beer an spirits and the staff helped with recommendations Definitely be back for the lunch menu For the quality of service For the quality of food For the quality of atmosphere Exceedingly well priced

Just enjoyed a superb Sunday lunch — a real treat. We had three courses, craft beers and champagne and all were excellent. Fantastic service, the best roast I’ve ever had, and a super relaxing atmosphere for a Sunday afternoon. Lucky 🍀 to have this on our doorstep for sure. A great addition to the village and no doubt an attraction for miles around. Congratulations on a brilliant concept well executed!

The food was good and so too was the service, but thought the side were a bit pricey for the amount you got.

Great first experience of the venue. Food and drink delicious

What a shambles !!!! Are table was booked for 7.00 PM, I admit we arrived 20 minutes early, we were told our table wasn’t ready which was also fine, we then sat at a table by the bar for 40minutes during which at no time were we asked if we would like a drink whilst we waited for our table. When we did eventually get seated we then waited 20 minutes for our drinks order to be taken ( which was the only one we were offered or had all evening) The food whilst palatable it was expensive £26 for a ribeye steak without a sign of a chip or mushroom all of which were priced at £4 per meagre portion. We had been really looking forward to trying this venue out, we won’t be going back, the service was very poor, when we complained we were told they had staffing problems. We were offered very little by apology & no financial easement was offered at any time during our complaint. We won’t be going again or recommending Out Lane to any of our friends Jim & Di

The food at Out Lane Social was of a good standard, but our visit was a letdown by the length of time waiting between the mains and desserts. Also, any veg, chips etc are extra costs and not included in the overall meal price.

Exceptional meal, service and atmosphere at Out Lane Social on Saturday evening with friends. Both starters of crab and mackerel were lovely and presented beautifully and the steaks for main and the lemon sole was cooked just right. Appreciate the time and care that goes into every dish. Compliments to the manager, chefs and front of house team.

Had a fantastic night at Out Lane Social for New Years Eve! Beautiful food, lovely staff and a great singer. Our second time and both times have been amazing… we will be back! Thank you for helping us welcome in the New Year ☺️

Absolutely delicious lunch with top notch service. Really impressed and excellent value for money, we will certainly be returning!

Yet another fantastic evening (New Years Eve) at Out Lane Social: - food to die for, professional and friendly staff, a great artist playing and a really lively atmosphere. Food wise, might I recommend......well, everything?! This is such an excellent place to dine and the food is cooked to perfection. This restaurant truly, truly deserves to succeed. Well done, and thank you. Wayne, Joanna, Joshua and Ben Jackson

Greeted with a warm welcome. Great food, steak cooked perfectly and all sides were spot on. Can’t fault the staff. We’ll be back

Fantastic new restaurant. The menu is very well thought out and the dishes we chose were delicious! Fantastic service!!! Really enjoyed our first visit 😍😍 Thank you!!!

Croston have got a fantastic new restaurant, Outlane Social. Greg, through major renovation and building a new team, has created a first class restaurant with stylish decor and warm atmosphere which most certainly will attract the local community and passing visitors. We had a table for 4 for late lunch(16.00) yesterday and were more than pleasantly surprised with the terrific quality of food (great chef), the service from a young local team(well trained, friendly and attentive) and the overall ambience in the restaurant. For what we had the menu and price was of great value. We have made a further reservation for an evening meal next week and now certainly looking forward to it. Well done and thanks to Greg and team, you all deserve the support of the village. Dave and Pam

Food exceptional ,service even better The young man that served us was 16 & credit to the restaurant Would employ tomorrow.

Fabulous restaurant, food presentation excellent. Looking forward to returning this weekend & next. Holly

We had a wonderful evening last Sunday, entertainment was a nice touch and made the evening fun. Service and food excellent all round great atmosphere friendly and attentive staff and food delicious.

My husband and I just enjoyed our first meal at Out Lane Social. We were made very welcome by the friendly staff and the food and drink was excellent. The lunch time menu was great value for money too. We’ll be back soon 😊

What a fantastic place. Amazing food, service and atmosphere. Great attention to detail. Will return.

Amazing quality, the food is fabulous. The steaks are from local butcher Farrell and the fish is fresh and delicious. The service is friendly and slick. Well done in your first week. We will return.

Went on Saturday night it was very busy however, it was still a relaxed and enjoyable night. We booked for Xmas Eve. We'll done!

Called in for a drink with friends yesterday, lovely atmosphere and great service. Food looked delicious and some nice additions to the menu on the specials board. Looking forward to eating there again soon.

We went for the first time last evening and will be back! The staff were friendly and professional, the decor and atmosphere are fabulous and the food … well it was amazing quality and value!!

Sunday lunch was so good thank you

Great addition to Croston food scene Loved the decor and lighting , temperature just right. Lovely enthusiastic young staff. Myself and my wife both chose roast beef dinner and sticky toffee pudding for dessert , both wonderful . Very nice reasonably priced bottle of Malbec . Can’t wait for our next visit . Highly recommended .

A friend & I booked Tuesday for Wednesday lunchtime. Everything about this new restaurant was great.. warm spacious and very reasonable lunchtime menus.I had 3 courses while my friend had two… I could never turn down a chance to try lemon posset although I hadn’t managed to quite finish my fish pie… just the good size portions ..nothing else..having had crab starter on toast which was full of flavour also. My friend enjoyed her flat iron steak & chips followed by ice cream. All in all a very enjoyable couple of hours spent in lovely surroundings .. will certainly be coming back for an evening meal with friends asap. Lovely to have a much needed good restaurant within a few miles of Ormskirk without travelling to Southport. Well done!

Just had an amazing lunch - food and service some of the best I’ve had. 2 courses fixed price menu, which was outstanding value. All options we had (crab and beef Yorkshire pud starters, followed by monkfish and burger mains) were exceptional. The quality of the produce, the cooking and the service were first class. We will be returning very shortly to try out the full dinner menu (oysters, steak) and the Sunday dinner with joints from Butcher Farrells which is always top drawer. This is best addition to the local restaurant scene for a very long time.

Just what Croston needed. Very nice atmosphere and lovely decor. Food and service great will definitely be returning soon. You need to try the steak and the amazing triple cooked chips.

Fabulous evening; great food, wine and atmosphere. Very attentive staff.
