The best restaurants in North West

Great breakfast. Very friendly service. Came here whilst visiting Lancaster on the strength of the reviews here and it did not disappoint.

Fabulous bar, the toilet ratio is beyond incredible. About 5 to a 25/30 person bar. Beyond overjoyed.

Excellent and authentic Greek food, lovely owners and friendly staff. I love the grilled meats that are always juicy and tender. The house wine is good, while they stock lots of Greek bottled beers and wines too.

Great hotel. Nice room. Staff were brilliant.

I’m really hesitant to give this place 3 stars because I want to love it, and I understand what it’s like behind the scenes at a café. But after visiting four times—three of which were disappointing—I don’t think I’ll be returning. The service is very slow. While others around us were being served and receiving their food, we hadn’t even been acknowledged. Maybe it’s just bad luck, but we were polite and clearly ready to order, so I’m not sure why. Drinks also take a long time—staff always apologise (they are generally very friendly), but waiting 20 minutes for a drink is frustrating. The food itself tastes fine, no complaints there. However, on my last visit, I ordered a cake that was forgotten. After waiting in line at the till to get someone’s attention, I reminded them, and they mentioned it needed to be heated due to the caramel topping—no problem, but of course, it took even longer. When it finally arrived, the top was burnt (not just browned, but charred), and the cake itself was barely lukewarm. It tasted nice, but after a few bites, I noticed a hair in it. The staff apologised and didn’t charge me, which I appreciated, but it was still disappointing. It’s a shame because the café has a great atmosphere and is clearly popular, but the slow service, forgotten orders, and little mistakes—like a hair in my food—make it an unreliable spot for a quick coffee or lunch. I wish I could give my usual 5 stars, but unfortunately, I just can’t.

We were made feel welcome as soon as we walked in ,staff were very accommodating,the menu had a good selection,the food we ordered was very good and couldn't fault it.Theyre new owners but doing it well,the pub itself is quite worn but I'm sure they have some plans to revitalise it.

Been going to Marios for 35 year plus alway a great evening great food unbelievable value great atmosphere once again thank you to Mario cheers Stu and Gill Marsden

Stumbled upon this lovely little place.. we had the summer spring rolls, crispy chicken in red curry, and green curry.. everything was yummy, lovely level of spice. Friendly & efficient staff. Thank you - look forward to returning 😊

Food was goods but service is bad.

Located just over the motorway bridge when heading out of lancaster there is a shop and cafe as well as the animal housing. Visits to the animals are by appointment.

Absolutely beautiful steak an Guinness pie 🥧 😋 truely enjoyed our meal here 👍😃

This is a great place that does a huge range of ales, always changing. The food is locally sourced, the pies being a particular favourite of ours. Summertimes it's nice to sit out and watch the activity within the boatyard. I have just 2 small issues, and maybe I might be particularly sensitive to this, but I find the lighting functional rather than making the place feel welcoming, so it feels more like a cafe than a licensed restaurant on an evening. And no Guinness, even cans would do if informed and charged appropriately. Other than that really great place that we will continue to visit.

The food is amazing. Can’t recommend it enough!

Just had Sunday roast at this place, overpriced for what you get, nearly all the meals came out lukewarm, the lamb was succulent but after it came back warmed up it was tough.Very disappointing, their description on there menu is not what you get, had better roast elsewhere at a cheaper price.Will not be back

Great big breakfast will recommend.will be back again soon.
