The best restaurants in North West

Really delicious brunch with family and amazing staff - so helpful. I’m vegan and gluten free and they very kindly made me an amazing bespoke sandwich. We’ll be back!

Tasty food but awful service. Such a disappointment. This place has been brilliant in the past but while the food is still lovely the place is let down by the service. It’s totally chaotic. There doesn’t appear to be any organisation up front. Firstly they were completely overbooked. They squeezed 11 of us onto a table for 6 for the first 20 minutes. But at least we got a table. A few people turned up after us with reservations but basically had to leave because there was no space. It only went downhill from there. Drinks came out one at a time with several reminders that we were missing some. Bizarrely they then chose to serve all the adults food first before the kids meals with the kids just getting restless and hungry. At least the food was tasty. Finally I would just not bother ordering dessert if you do go. 20 minutes to get someone’s attention to order and then at least 25 more minutes to get the kids bowls of ice cream out (which we were charged full price for when they should’ve been included in the kids meal price). Our waitress was friendly throughout but clearly overwhelmed. We tried to flag her down several times to ask for an update as the little ones were now getting beyond bored and very tired. She was busying herself on the opposite side of the quite small restaurant and appeared to be purposely not looking over at us as I think she was just embarrassed by how long things were taking. Multiple other staff just faffing near the tills and no one even trying to clear our table from the main course or update us on our order. The lack of communication just added to our poor experience. It’s such a shame for a previously great place. I’ve heard from other people who have found the service similar when they went. Someone told me they waited 1 hour for their desserts and bill when they went and again saw the staff turning away multiple people looking for a table while they sat waiting. They must not want people’s business. Certainly for my party the tasty food just isn’t worth the sheer frustration of the service and we won’t be back.

We are regular visitors to Blackpool and when there we always visit the Wexford Diner for brunch. Keith the owner and chef is always hospitable and cooks an amazing brunch. It’s such a friendly place to dine. A gem of a place to visit if you want the best breakfast.

Our first visit to the Hamers arm and the meal was excellent. Starters of chicken tikka skewers, feta cheese, black pudding croquettes & salt & pepper chicken all fantastic. Main courses cheese & onion pie, fish & chips & peri peri chicken, our plates were empty. Quality ingredients very well cooked, nicely presented and served by friendly staff, what more could you ask for, oh and good value for money. We have already booked for Sunday !! Give this new dining venue a try, you won’t be disappointed, we’ll done to all Involved.

l sampled the dish of the day, a risotto style pilau dish, it was well presented and absolutely delicious. l then shared a dessert which was equally scrumptious. l strongly recommend this place.

I've been so many times! My family and friends love the food and atmosphere so much, we more or less eat here at least once a month if not more often! I would advise leaving some room for pistachio cheesecake or ice cream I cant recommend this place enough!

Gran lugar impecablemente limpio y el personal muy eficiente Me atendió una señora muy educada y amable llamada Claire recomendaría encarecidamente el Vale Bar

Swcond visit. Best Italian food outside Italy. Great service, friendly staff, lovely atmosphere. Can't wait to go back.

Love it when a catering van comes to a camping site, so was really pleased to read that Magic Mountain Keswick pizza van was arriving on Friday. We preordered a Chorizo and Truffle Dream and arrived a few mins before collection time and they were just preparing them both. We’ve eaten many pizzas and have to say both of these were up there with best. Perfectly cooked with a lovely thin base and tasted amazing. Would definitely recommend, you will not be disappointed 👌🏼

We have the privilege of living close to this restaurant so visit regularly. The food is always delicious, fresh and piping hot. The garlic bread is AMAZING. The portion sizes are very generous too. I just wish I had a bigger stomach to be able to fit more than one course in!!

Good size and thickness of fish. Chips were nicely cooked and still soft. Not the cheapest but definitely one of the best in the area. Definitely worth the extra cost for size and quality. Usually cut the fish in half and get two meals out of it with a round of bread and mushy peas.

I have wanted to try this one for a long time but never found the right occaision, but then an opertunity arose for my wife and I and another couple and we took it. So glad we did. It was every bit as good as I thought it would be. The staff are feindly The food is excellent The atmosphere is pleasant There aren't many nearby parking spaces but there are someoutside and we managed to get straight into one. The price was as expected. Reasonable. not cheap, not expensive but definitely worth it for the experience. Someone said this is Stockports hidden Gem. Well, it's not hidden. Its on the A6 main road in Stockport, but it certainly is a gem.

Food was fabulous, really tasty with good vegetarian options. Waiter really helpful, nice atmosphere. Will definitely be going again. The portions are very generous. Fresh, spicy, crispy and very tasty food, beautifully cooked.

Had the most fantastic work Christmas Lunch here. The whole team were fantastic! Great service, Great food. The whole team really pulled out all the stops for us!
