The best restaurants in Brindle and Hoghton Chorley North West

Fabulous fish & chips. Cooked beautifully and served in the little restaurant in front of the cooking range. We've been a few times now, and usually call in on our visits to Preston. Hoghton is about 3 miles South of said city. The food is always piping hot, the fish fried to perfection and the chips delicious with no evidence of fat or oil. Even the mushy peas beat all others. I've eaten F&C all over this land, even in such celebrated places as Whitby's "Magpie", and have never tasted any like Gregson Lane's. It's run by a brother and sister, who are the most pleasant chippy owners I've ever encountered. Oh, and their prices are VERY reasonable!

First time here and won't be the last. Lovely cosy pub, excellent Festive Dinner and great service

Lovely fresh, piping hot food as always. Nice atmosphere with the Xmas decorations out.

Yet another excellent meal and great service at this lovely restaurant. Will be back again very soon.

Just returned from evening meal with family (7 Oct). 2 of us chose pork platter (special menu) which I anticipated to be a generous offering of pork fillet, sausage roll and black pudding - priced at £22. How disappointing- 2 pieces of mouth size fillets, a third of a sausage roll and a thin splattering of black pudding in the potato Rosti. It tasted nice and was well presented but feel totally ripped off with the meagre offering, I did inform a young waitress of my disappointment and asked her to relay my message to the chef. No apology, no feedback, nothing. We have had numerous family meals over many years and this was clearly sub-standard. The 3 other diners enjoyed their meals to provide balance. Perhaps the management team can consider and respond accordingly?

Not overly enamoured by the quality of food for the price, had the duck & liver starter - 2 pieces of bread which wasn't enough. Then duck for main which was very dry and not very tasty. Other people had the Turkey which was a big slab of meat... Caesar salad was had by another member and it was some salad leaves with some chicken. Cheese and biscuits with slightly stale biscuits.

Lovely busy pub, nice atmosphere, great food. We are in the bar area (so no table service to order and you can't book a table in the bar, only the restaurant) but it was really good food and the staff were great.

Just had afternoon tea in the Tea Room. A treat from our son and daughter in law. What can I say. Amazing. The selection of sandwiches and cakes was fabulous and they were all so tasty. The scones were warm and lovely. Staff were very attentive. Loved it.

We ate on a Monday night in December and I think every table was taken, so there was a lovely atmosphere. The service was very good and the timing of the food was also good. The 2/ 3 course festive menu was good value and very nice choices served on warmed plates and generous bit not overfacing portion sizes. I had eaten here twice before but none of my friends had - they will all be back though including one girl who lives near Blackpool but thought it would be a nice drive out for a meal with her other half.

We were at a family wedding here yesterday. The venue, the food but particularly the service & the staff attitude and attentiveness were absolutely perfect 😍 I would highly recommend it to anyone thinking of a wedding venue. It couldn't have been better 😊
