Twist in Preston

Had a great lunch at Twist today. Small but considered menu, food was excellent and very reasonably priced. Friendly staff and a cosy establishment. Highly recommended.

Lovely Atmosphere, Great Value For Money, Incredible Food and Kind Staff - Sums up this place perfectly My boyfriend and I came on our first visit to Twist the other day, and we were pleasantly surprised. The second we walked through the door we were greeted with a smile, and a very kind member of staff, who we assume potentially was the owner, however we weren’t too sure. That being said, every staff member we came into contact with was also lovely. The atmosphere here is lovely, super small establishment on the ground floor especially, and even though every table was filled, it wasn’t too loud. It was very relaxing, and a nice environment to be in. There was music being played quietly in the background making it a lovely ambience for a more chilled date night. The value for money cannot be faulted. We ordered two mains, with a side and one starter between us, along with an alcoholic drink and a soft drink, our bill was around £40, for the two of us which we thought wasn’t half bad! The food was also lovely, super tasty and good quality ingredients. All in all, this was a wonderful first experience and we will certainly be back.

Great place, the food was great, and I’m going to come again.

Best food I’ve had in Preston. We went for lunch today,ordered pizza and burgers. I could really taste the freshness of the food. We will definitely be back again.

Excellent food. I can’t wait to be back for the rest of the menu .

Just had lamb chops wife had burger super friendly professional staff (Richard)excellent value /quality highly recommend 💯

What a brilliant little place, the chap running it is really good at customer service, friendly and professional in equal measure. He makes you feel like you’re a regular customer even if it’s your first time, Food is excellent, especially the burgers. Definitely worth a visit. I will be going again. Thank (Silver jacket guy😉)

Cosy little spot, excellent food, value for money, and great service. Stumbled upon this place with mum as I wanted to try something different from the chain eateries we usually frequent. We had pizza and chicken souvlaki. The pizza was superb! Mum commented it was one of the best she's had for a long time (and I had to agree). The souvlaki was great as well. If you're looking for somewhere different and slightly off the beaten track, 100% give this a shot.

Best food in Preston so far. We will definitely be back

This is a great value venue. New menu recently but still really tasty and well priced. Sausage melt sandwich, chicken kebab with pitta. Fabulous.

Great food, Great staff would recommend.

Best food I have ever had.Staff was wonderful too. Highly recommended. We definitely will be back again.

Heard this place was doing just burgers and pizzas. Sadly that was right. Used to be a cute little spot to go for fine dining but now it's like every other burger place in Preston - nothing special now. Went from Fine dining to brunch/fine dining to burgers and pizzas. Confusing but disappointing. P.S images taken online not my images

Was very good. Lost it s nerve. Food was good. Interesting food and atmosphere . Just another burger place. Very very disappointing.

Great 3 course menu. Fine food. Great service. Good music. Nice to have a classic 3 course menu rather than tapas or tasting menu.

Brilliant service. Fantastic food. Thank you. X

Nipped in for a few drinks. The service was fab and it had a great atmosphere! 😉👍Although Abdul the waiter was a bit cheeky 🙈, I would highly recommend! 👍

Me and my husband visited this fab spot last week which is located right at the heart of Preston and sampled their contemporary European dishes ~ We tried the following: 》Pigeon Breast with roasted baby carrots, sweetcorn puree and parsley crumbs 》Scallops Carpaccio with fried rocket, pomegranate dressing, black garlic aioli and radish 》Fillet Steak with garlic and rosemary potatoes, roasted carrots, swede puree, wild mushrooms and veal jus 》Marinated Lamb Cutlets with naan bread, Greek yoghurt, rocket salad and spicy chimichurri sauce 》Lemon Tart with blueberry ice cream and fresh fruits 》Warm Chocolate Fudge Cake with vanilla ice cream and fresh berries The dishes were perfectly cooked and seasoned well with robust flavours that complimented each other. Totally impressed with the quality of their produce and how they were executed with utmost attention. The starters were fresh and light, certainly whet our appetites. The stars of the night for us were the fillet steak and lamb cutlets, so tender and beautifully spiced. Ended the night on a high note with the delectable desserts which had the right amount of sweetness plus balanced flavours. The staff were so attentive and made our dining experience very enjoyable. Our 3 course meal was second to none, we can't wait to be back - I highly recommend this place.

The service from Daisy and Vito is second to none, some of the best coffee in town!

Our third visit to this place recently and for the third time the food was excellent. The service is quick and good and the prices are very good value. It's 20 yards off the main shopping street in Preston, go, you won't be disappointed.

I went to Twist for dinner with a friend. We had a great night. I started with the Charred Asparagus with poached egg and hollandaise sauce. So good I didn’t want it to end. Pork belly for mains, which was set off perfectly with the lentils and broccoli and rounded off with the semifreddo, which was delightful and not too sweet. We tried a Serbian wine (didn’t even know it was a thing!),but which was a great accompaniment to the meal. Definitely recommend.

Nice place for breakfast, we both had a full English and it was lovely. Would recommend this place for sure. Maybe it was nice or maybe it was cos we stayed in Blackpool the night before? Take your pick.

Had a lovely lunch and reasonably priced. Service was great. I’ve dropped a star for the atmosphere only because we were the only people in, but it was a late lunch. Will definitely be going back!

Lovely new restaurant we went in for brunch but the food was amazing we will certainly be back for an evening meal

Had a lovely meal for my partners birthday! Food was excellent and the service was fantastic. We will be coming back!

Absolutely stunning food! The menu is incredibly well thought out, beautifully balanced flavours, and offering something nowhere else in Preston really does. We'll definitely be returning.

We were celebrating my retirement. I am a big fan of fine dining and Twist is right up my street. We had the scallops, squid and beef carpaccio for starters, all fabulously tasty, although there did seem to be a full pack of rocket on my plate of carpaccio to bulk it out I presume, I did share the rocket, as it was nicely dressed 😋 For mains the others all had steak, cooked as they requested and all thoroughly enjoyed. I had the lamb which was amazing, beautifully tender just how it should be. Twist is definitely my favourite restaurant in Preston!

We dined here for a friend's 40th birthday and I was blown away. The food was just outstanding, I really cannot fault anything at all. The staff were extremely helpful and we all had a wonderful evening

I came to Twist to celebrate my birthday with friends. The food was absolutely delicious and the atmosphere was lovely. All the staff were friendly and very helpful. The price certainly reflected in the quality, the steak was cooked perfectly. I cannot wait to come back!

Small portion for a large breakfast I was a little disappointed

This restaurant easily has the best food, experience, and service. Our waiter was extremely funny, and very attentive. The food was absolutely delicious. And the vibes were immaculate. It is on the pricier side, as you would expect, but it is a well worthy experience. The only bad critic I have was that our meat, both the steak and the lamb were slightly overcooked. The steak (asked for medium rare) looked good, but once you cut into it was well done, and the lamb (supposed to be pink) was also cooked all the way through. But even with that, the meal was wonderful. We got tiramisu and the orange creme brulee, i didnt think the creme brulee would be good, but it was magnific, the tiramisu was just tiramisu, nothing special.

Excellent food, definitely worth a visit. Our host, Tom, looked after us splendidly. Thank you

The starters were best - the squid was lovely and well presented. The main course was more variable - the lamb looked great, but the pasta was too much and could have been half the portion size to ensure the other ingredients stood out. The dessert was ok. The service was good and we had a lovely evening here.

Looking for something different for Saturday lunch we spotted Twist, liked the look of the menu and took the chance. What a great decision. The service was excellent and the food superb. Being used to London prices we were also very surprised at the cost. Good food at a reasonable price. Forget burger bars and quick food outlets, treat yourself to quality cooking. We'll certainly be back.

Having read such positive reviews we thought we’d give Twist in Preston a whirl. Amazing friendly front of house staff provided a very warm welcome. After sitting, water and warm homely bread arrived to the table within minutes. The menu has just enough alternatives for each course which makes you think that everything is super fresh and cooked personally for you. We were not disappointed. Each course looked beautiful and tasted amazing, currently the best value for money in Preston. The food was ‘gourmet’ quality without the gourmet price. I can highly recommend this restaurant.

Came here on an impromptu night out !!! Service was excellent and all the food was second to none !! The lamb was cooked to perfection and the Hake was simply Devine !!! Will definitely return and highly recommend

Excellent food, well worth the price, and very good service from the scouser.

We visited tonight Twist and I can say one of the best food i ever eaten. Thank you again. We definitely will be back again.

We been with couple of friends tonight. I can say we had the best food. I highly recommend Twist. Thank you again.

It was me and my partners first time going to Twist Restaurant and YOU have to go! It’s the cutest little spot with absolutely phenomenal food. The Duck and Creme Bruleé is to die for. The service we received from Tom was simply amazing. Greeted with a friendly smile and complimentary water and bread. Literally everything we could of needed, we got! Tom's service alone was good enough to come back but the food was just sensational. We will be back :) xx P.s. I was so caught up in the experience I forgot to take pictures, so here is from their Instagram page haha!

The nicest food I’ve ever had out in a restaurant. I could not fault it the price is perfect for the quality of food. The staff were amazing, very attentive and helped me and friend decide on our food choices the soft shell crab and the beef rib were to die for.

We had a lunch in Twist at weekend enjoying the 3 course lunch. The restaurant has a lovely ambience and the service was great. The food was delicious, we enjoyed all 6 difference meals. Wine was Serbian red and was delicious. We had the chance...

We were the first customers last night and offered any table we fancied. Drinks and menus handed to us and water for the table. We had the Braised ox cheek, soft shell crab and scallops, followed by the steak, duck and braised short rib. All...

Wonderful lunch at Twist today, had the lunch menu, soft shell crab and seabass cooked to perfection. The restaurant is clean, warm and bright with friendly staff.

Came here for an impromptu lunch. Was able to bring own wine as no license. Wanted food from the set lunch menu but 2 out of the 3 starters were not available. I must confess I wanted to leave at this point but partner insisted...

Really fresh, tasty food. Friendly staff & recommend highly

Absolutely fantastic food and lovely staff too,highly recommended all four of us could not fault anything.

Awful food unseasoned, service was good hence 3 stars

We visited Twist this evening after hearing great things and we weren’t disappointed. From the amazing staff & lovely decor to the incredible food, we had a brilliant time. The scallops were perfectly cooked, the sweet potato croquettes were incredibly light, and the swordfish is highly recommended. The absolute star of our meal was the Orange Crème Brûlée- utterly delicious. We can’t wait for our next visit!

Second visit in 4 weeks! Love this place. Welcoming staff and a lovely cosy and modern interior. Food is exceptional and well presented. Very reasonable prices and portion sizes are generous too! Everything was cooked perfectly and I cannot fault! Very much recommended Starter -...

The food was excellent. Tom was brilliant, making us feel welcome. Tried ox cheek as the starter, which I had never had before and duck as the mains. The restaurant was very clean.

What a lovely experience. The food is gorgeous, the front of house guys, james and jen, are fantastic. The risotto is to die for as in the orange creme brulee. This place should be visited.
