The Clever Little Cupcake Company in Bury

Very rarely will I give any eatery 5 stars, but this one certainly breaks the rules. My wife and I had finished shopping and were looking for somewhere for lunch...kids were on "Half Term" and all the usual places were noisy and really hammered. I have to be honest, as we approached the "Pro Power Health Bar." we weren't sure what to make of it.....it didn't really look like a place for food, but more like one of those "Smoothie" bars, that are so often, there one minute and gone the next. But as we decided to venture in and talk to the young lady about what kind of food was on offer, we became more and more interested. She explained how the meals were put together and she impressed us that much with her enthusiasm, that we readily ordered a chicken and a steak burrito, respectively, with a side order of sweet potato wedges and two teas. When the orders arrived, it looked really great, served on a wooden platter and the food spoke for itself..beautifully cooked, fresh, fabulously tasty and just full of goodness. With "Fast Food" numbers,worryingly at their highest for all time, Pro Power Health Bar, is a huge contrast and truly a breath of fresh air....simple, fresh, nutritious food, cooked and presented really well, with a "Super Value" bonus. I do hope they are here to stay, 'cause, "We'll be back !"

Visited The Bank Pub while the women enjoyed some shopping in the nearby Bury Market and can highly recommend this place after spending an enjoyable afternoon here.Drinks are very reasonable with promotions also on offer and the young lady serving is a credit to the place,so friendly and welcoming.The bar is spacious with comfortable seating,nice decor and plenty of screens for music and sport.

A late lunch for my son. He had a chip bap with red salt....his words were "That is lovely". I wasn't planning on eating, but was tempted by staff recommendation of mac 'n' cheese. It was delicious.... And at half price....a great deal!!! Well done to the chef!!

Arriving in the pouring rain, we were rewarded for splashing through puddles with the most amazing ice cream we have tasted. Lots of flavour choices, including gluten free, meant we were both spoilt for choice. The smooth, creamy, not too sweet Just Jersey variety was our favourite - it simply showcased the quality of the ingedients. Would highly recommend!

Absolutely fabulous place ran by an ex squaddy where a reunion was held. Food lovely, real ales in stock. Great staff. Fab owner. Apparently no longer there
