We visited the Pavilion bistro last night with a party of 16 people for a 40th Birthday. Our party sat in the garden room which was beautifully decorated with a lovely warm fire. From the moment we arrived until the moment we left the staff were incredible, everyone commented on their professionalism, nothing was too much trouble and EVERYTHING was perfectly organized ! The food was absolutely fabulous and presentation was immaculate ! Compliments to the chef ! I can’t recommend this restaurant highly enough, it is perfection in every way. Thank you for making our special occasion even more special than we imagined it was going to be !

The dinning room was very noisy making it impossible to hold a quiet conversation . It was the first and last time I have dined there . Dinners beware the

Not been here for a while . Hoped for better service as before staff have been a bit aloof and not attentive . Whilst most of the staff were helpful I was shocked at the prices! £10 for a small bacon sandwich is absurd . Many other local cafes are charging much less . Won’t be back

Sorry. Disappointed this time. I come with my family and friends several times a year and always for a Christmas lunch. However this year my husband and I had the feather blade of beef as our main course. Now I like salty food but this was over salted by a long way. It really spoilt the meal so much I had to ask for a glass of water. More disaster. The waiter brought the glass but instead of coming to my side he pushed it straight in front of my husband’s face. Not the kind of service I would expect Then to cap it all off, one of the waiters said we couldn’t pay for our food individually. It had to paid all together. One of my sisters asked for an itemised bill so we could work out what we had spent and the other sister insisted she paid for her separately. Another waiter (female) said that it was no problem to do that so why the first one had been awkward I have no idea. I also strongly object to being referred to as “guys”. I’m not American. I’m not in America and quite clearly am not a male. If a collective name is needed why not “everyone” or “people”? Let’s hope the visit we have booked next week is back to normal standards!

Very hit and miss all depends what staff you get to be honest. Coffee a let down also they put (dairy) milk in a requested oat milk drink! I re Confirmed oat milk when ordering and checked again to make sure definitely oat milk, it came out with cows milk in. I said this smells like cows milk he said it is. I said I asked specifically for dairy milk he said oh yes you did I’m sorry. Also for the vegan platter served with (dairy) butter and not flora. I had to request it to be changed. I have a severe dairy allergy I mean how wrong can someone get it I think staff need training on allergies and the importance of getting things correct and the effects can be catastrophic.

Such a beautifully decorated restaurant inside and outside with Christmas baubles on a magnificent tree in the car park. The restaurant has been treated to a Christmas makeover too. So the atmosphere was just right for 2 out of the three of us to enjoy 2 courses from the Christmas lunch time menu. We were all driving so didn’t get any alcoholic drinks. 2 of us had prawn cocktail followed by turkey and most of the usual trimmings. The restaurant was busy and we had booked. Service was ok - we had to wait a little but we had plenty to chat about. I recall the set menu (with several choices) was £25 for 2 courses - or was it 3?? For coffee we went upstairs to view the lovely grounds and here it was lovely and warm. The restaurant is so attractive and the ladies toilets are good too!!

Food was very nice, great decor. However the bistros customer service let it down badly: On booking we were asked to pay £10 deposit per guest ( on a Saturday afternoon in October). We asked what was on the deserts list and was told to go up and take a photo of it to read at the table! When ordering deserts we were asked to order quickly as we had a time limit of 2 hours!! One of our party cancelled due to Ill health Leaving 7 paying ladies. We were not refunded the deposit. One more negative- the parking spaces are far too narrow resulting in a dinted door when leaving. Sorry but won’t be returning any time soon, far too many other eateries close by that offer excellent customer service.

I came here yesterday for my grandmas 80th birthday, firstly they wouldn’t allow us to place the tables as we wanted, we had a party of 17 and wanted one long table so we could all socialise, we were separated on to 4 tables and had to shout across the room to one another, very odd start Four of us ordered steaks and every single one was cooked terribly, all extremely well done…cremated! When I mentioned mine to the waitress she said I wouldn’t get any rarer than that, there was no pink whatsoever. I ordered the kids omelette and chips and she had a bigger portion than any of us! There were about 6 chips on my partners plate a long with a steak that looked like awful beef jerky The younger members of staff were lovely but that was it. The only positive was spending time with my family, albeit from a far! The price was a real shock 😳😳 Really don’t recommend sadly!

The place is beautiful and the food was lovely. What let's this place down is the abysmal service. The order for the first course and drinks were efficient. When we wanted to order a dessert and another drink was when everything fell down. I asked the gentleman clearing our plates if we could order desserts, he disappeared and the one waitress serving seemed to go to every table apart from ours to see if they wanted to order anything else. After a half hour wait we gave up. We went to celebrate our Ruby Wedding and it was ruined. I felt quite upset as I am disabled and wondered if I was being discriminated against. We looked at the menus for celebration afternoon tea and Christmas but will give our custom to another restaurant in the area of which there are a few.

Afternoon Tea 27/07/24 Afternoon Tea 90th birthday treat for 3. Booked 3 weeks in advance at £20 per head as per website and paid deposit of £30. Had to ask for hot water for the tea and more milk. Ordered drinks from bar which never arrived. On paying balance was asked for an extra £12? Told price had increased week earlier and new menu. In a nutshell - not my problem. I will pay what website quoted when I booked as not informed of any increase. In truth £24 for that Afternoon Tea and Service?? Not what was expected from The Pavilion and previous experience there.

I really wasn’t sure what to expect when my mother and father in law booked this restaurant for my husband’s birthday. But wow what an amazing venue. The grounds are lovely. However, the most impressive elements were the food and service. I had tempura prawns which literally melted in the month. My nephew had the squid which he said was really nice. In fact all 8 of us loved our starters and our main courses. I’d definitely recommend the steak pie. The pastry was so thin which was the perfect vessel to hold the steak and ale sauce. The gravy was divine. The staff were so lovely, Iain and Debbie were so welcoming and charming throughout our meal. But I have to say all the staff were exceptional. Thoroughly recommend and we will be back!

Disappointing to be charged for unwell colleagues who couldn’t attend the meal as ‘no show’. Called restaurant before to apologise about illness. Spoke to manager but was not informed of cancellation fee still being applied. Never come across such an absurd policy when some of the group still attends for a 3 course meal and drinks. So many unoccupied tables but informed it was at capacity... It was a shame as it ruined a nice meal. Don’t think I’ll return to a restaurant who fleeces it regular customers

Second time coming here and another poor review. On this occasion the food and service were ok but we were lumped with a £30 fee for “no shows” (£10 per head). Despite informing the restaurant prior and plenty of table availability they refused to give us the deposit back. This is not standard practice for restaurants. If the restaurant is informed that the booking is changed then this should be respected especially if the restaurant is not busy. Life is unpredictable with illness etc and the customers who do show up should not be penalised. Really puts me off coming back and I definitely wouldn’t recommend to anyone.

This place exudes style and sophistication, and is immaculately presented to the highest standard. A special mention goes to Jason, our designated waiter, who was faultless in his work, friendly, helpful and made our visit even more enjoyable - if that was possible!

We had a fabulous time here celebrating a “big Birthday “. It was a Sunday lunchtime so the afternoon tea was unfortunately not available; however, the choice and quality of food was excellent. Can highly recommend the beef roast dinner and the lobster club sandwich. The house wine is very well priced (£16) and delicious. The restaurant decor is beautiful and modern and the facilities (wc) spotlessly clean. The outside area is a lovely place to take after dinner coffees. Both waitresses who served us were extremely helpful and friendly Will most definitely return for afternoon tea.

A disappointment. There is more I can say but my biggest gripe was with the vegetarian burger. Halloumi and mushroom, costing the same as the beef burger. Halloumi was just two blocks, not even slices that cover the burger, I am talking cubes. And the mushroom, just sat in the middle of the bun taking up just about half of its surface area. My advice, get a portabella and slice the halloumi then maybe it could at least serve as a half decent burger. At least the arancini starter was nice.

I would recommend the Pavillion for breakfast or brunch. The surroundings are lovely and really add to the ambience. We all enjoyed our meals and the portion size was good, I enjoyed the poached eggs but would try something different next time. The coffee is lovely too. In the future we'd try lunch or dinner and they host big family meals too. If you visit make sure you explore the surrounding gardens, waterfall and nearby reservoir. The service overall was good, we just had to wait a little while to get seated even though we'd booked. We look forward to visiting again.

If I could give no stars I would. I had to cancel a meal for 6 as one of our party was taken poorly, so rather than lose the table I thought it would be nice for my Partner and I to go for a meal instead (use the reservation rather than lose the table) I called the restaurant to advise there would only be 2 attending due to illness, only to be told I would lose £40.00 of the deposit I had paid ! I asked why it could not be offset against the meal the 2 attending would have and was told, very abruptly, that it was part of the Company's T's & C's that they do not do refunds, and that it was unfeasible to offset for the 2 who would have attended. She said I could rebook the meal for a later date - the deposit would be 'held over' until then, which means they have £60 of my money until we re-book which could be in 6 days or 6 weeks, dependent on when the person is well enough. I booked this reservation online and I have checked my emails and online booking for these T's & C's and find can nothing, there is nothing on the website that says they will keep the deposit for any reason ! The website does not have a copy and I have called the Restaurant to request a copy of them be emailed to me, I did tell the lady on the phone that if I had the choice we would not be attending at all but I have no choice if I do not want to lose my £60, and we certainly will not be going back any time soon.

Tried booking on line no response, took a chance & we drove from Birmingham to Manchester & booked into The Midland Hotel. The Bistro was recommended by friends. My wife tried phoning from Manchester, automated response. I tried phoning an hour later 'NO ANSWER' automated response. "we will call you back" was the recorded message. [Jokers] We decided to drive to the Bistro on the off chance. Still no return phone calls to either of us. One minute away, I received a phone call, which was surprising because I phone nearly an hour after my wife, yet they phoned me first, & not my wife & still no confirmation of booking online. Shocking! Lost a customer, sort yourselves out.

Where do I start? From the moment we walked in I knew we’d made a terrible mistake. There was a very strange, awkward welcome from a young lad who thought he was hilarious by welcoming us in his very best Spanish accent, to the cheap and nasty lightweight cutlery and paper napkins. As we were already there we ordered just starters to test the water. At this point we were told we had to order our main to which I said I didn’t want to. We were then accosted by the same waiter five minutes later insisting we ordered our main. I again said we didn’t want to and we didn’t want to be forced to either. A very strange set up, you want to feel welcomed in a restaurant and this was far from what we were accustomed to. Starters arrived and as predicted were terrible. Rice balls looked like they’d just been defrosted then heated up and the muscles were the smallest we’ve ever encountered. Quite frankly this is probably one the worst restaurants we’ve been to. We sent both back, paid for our wine and made a swift exit.

We walked in to be greeted by a grumpy bar tender who seemed like he couldn’t be bothered to check the clipboard for our reservation. We were seated and offered a drink - still no smile from the bar tender. The food was average at best - the portion size was dire for an adult - my meal consisted of 2 fillets of sea bass, a smear of tomato purée and a few roast potatoes. I ended up finishing my daughter’s leftovers because I was still so hungry. The desserts looked mass-produced and uninspiring so I opted for a speciality coffee, which they forgot and so took off the bill. Finally, we left, and despite 3 members of staff being stood by the door, nobody said goodbye to us. We have visited here a few times and have never been particularly bowled over by the food and service (it is just local to us so we wanted to support the business), but this experience lacked any warmth or friendliness, so we won’t be visiting again. I’m really baffled by all the glowing reviews on here lol!

Lovely place, beautiful setting overlooking the bowling pavillion with lovely landscaping. Wheel accessible and also has wheelchair accessible toilet. Food great and not overpriced. Would definitely recommend.

Pavilions have a nice atmosphere. Food was OK nothing special. Soup was a bit tasteless, nsin course was a little overcooked. I was disappointed.

We had our first visit this evening to celebrate my parent in laws wedding anniversary and I just wanted to let you know how impressed we were. The food was delicious, but the service was serving to none, Iain was our waiter and he was absolutely fantastic, so attentive and so polite, and I was told that it was my night off when I passed him the plates! The food came out in great time, no waiting, which is great when you have an impatient, hungry 12 year old. As we were leaving Iain took the time to stop me to commend my son on his manners, this really meant a lot. Absolutely first class food and service, we will definitely be back. Thank you so much

Lovely time at the pavilion for an evening meal for a group celebrating a birthday. Location is very nice, the place itself is great and the staff did really try to make sure everything was how we wanted it. A couple of issues when bringing the food out and a drinks order to the table caused confusion but was then dealt with in a professional manner. Would recommend a visit here without question.

My recent visit to Pavilion Restaurant in Bury was nothing short of exceptional. The monkfish and prawn curry was a taste sensation, and Iain, our waiter, was a true professional. The attention to detail and overall atmosphere made this an unforgettable dining experience. Highly recommended!

I enjoy the Hare and Hounds for a social drink with friends. The food is tasty, the service is friendly and there’s a good atmosphere to the place.
