Vardons Restaurant at Shaw Hill in Chorley

We visited the restaurant on Sunday 10th November 2024 ,the meal was excellent but eclipsed by the service and support given by Stuart (Manager) . As a new wheelchair user the help and support given was outstanding. Stuart found us a suitable table , proving every assistance subsequently , far , far more than could have been anticipated or hoped for All staff were attentive , very pleasant and ensured that the dining experience was worry free and most enjoyable Lovely place, great staff and a lovely meal, we will be back

I was lucky enough to be taken for a birthday meal here and it was faultless. The food and cocktails were amazing, and so were the staff. Great service, fully recommend. We will be returning without a doubt.

Went to visit Vardon’s restaurant at Shaw Hill for Valentine’s Day as I was given vouchers. Only one menu to choose from which was the Valentine’s set menu which had no price on it- no explanation provided when asked about other menu. Food way way below average. Paid for the meal using the voucher - Poor communication between staff. As we were using the gift voucher, the waiter (forgot to take his name - but he was tall and appeared to be the head waiter) said that the voucher needs to be checked by the receptionist. We waited for 10mins and asked the same waiter what was happening after 15min, which he advised that the ‘other’ waiter was looking into it. We waited another 12mins and still no news. I went up to the ‘other’ waiter who was meant to be dealing with it, which the waiter then said that it was all sorted. No one had the courtesy to let us know that it was all sorted - the ‘other’ waiter did say sorry . Quite poor seeing as the restaurant was not busy at all. Overall, disappointing experience and it was not cheap, £90 something pounds.. was a joke. I would advise others to go and spend their money at boars heads and royal oaks. Given the match of bad services along with bad food, one star actually is for the effort made by the waitresses.

Just been to the restaurant last night and the three course meal was excellent. Menu choices were varied and interesting. Everything was well cooked and nicely presented. No loud music so we could talk. There were 6 of us. Not back to the busy atmosphere from years ago but this will come if they keep these standards and more promotions.

Very poor indeed, I would not recommend here, the standards against the cost is a joke, once this was the place to eat as the standard was very high, watery frozen ham hock, cold bought in bread, butter so cold could not use it, thin beef slices cooked in gravy but served with a pepper sauce weird! served as beef rump, both under and over cooked veg, triple cooked chips in a too cold fryer thus very greasy, the apple pie was not fully cooked part raw pastry, dirty unpolished knifes and forks, disaster!!

Amazing place. Great food and drink choice.

Beautiful location, fabulous food, fantastic service - a wonderful experience - 5 stars well deserved.

Fantastic food in a lovely restaurant, the food is delicious, the service was, as always by Paul, professional and attentive. We had a three course al a carte. To add to it the views are lovely. Thanks for a great evening, and we will visit again soon.

Lovely lunch of soup, beef and chocolate tarte. Highly recommended.

Fabulous place had my wedding here 31 years ago amazing, went back for anniversary still beautiful the surrounding are beautiful .😊😊😊

Turned around by Jack. Give it a try.

Brilliant evening. The booking agent got our reservation wrong so we turned up 1 hour before the restaurant opened - even then we were looked after and a tablet was arranged. Excellent food; first class service from Craig, Oldie and the team

Recommend by a friend, went for Afternoon Tea, service was great and the home made chocolate brownie was fantastic. If you are looking for a special treat, this is the place to go. They even do vouchers and spa days - great Christmas present!!

Excellent food and friendly staff. Beautiful views of the golf course too! I highly recommend!
