The best restaurants in Chorley North West

San Marco is a place we would normally go for a nice meal, it’s a decent Italian, apart for the loud massive open dining area which sounds like a school canteen. Food however is always very nice. But Table booked for 8pm Quick nip to the ladies which were disgraceful with water spilling across the sink area, blocked toilets (no signage). They were busy granted but it’s simple, don’t book out so many tables if you can’t cope with the numbers. Within a minute of sitting down we were asked for our order. We obliged as we knew what we wanted. Within 5 mins the starters were there. We asked for a delay for our 2nd course as we had a taxi home for 10pm and didn’t want a rush. Its not cheap there either and there was only my hubby and I 🤷🏼‍♀️ When we asked for this delay we were told by the waiter to ask again when the person came to take our starter plates. The person who took our plates was the same guy! But we reminded him again, out of politeness and because he looked like he either couldn’t give a crap or simply didn’t get it. The mains came 10mins after our plates were taken!! 🤦🏼‍♀️ On arrival of our mains, I explained that we had asked for a delay and to be fair, she did offer to take them back, however I couldn’t let good food go to waste (or risk our next version ‘moderated’ - that’s my paranoia 😂) so we agreed to just have it. I was done with both courses by 8.40! We were just kicking our heels after that 🤷🏼‍♀️

A superb family celebration meal. Great staff and very helpful. Lovely food as always. Pizzas and pasta delicious. Recommend a visit.

6 of us, 4 adults and 2 children, went to the Black Horse yesterday for the Sunday roast dinner. It was excellent in quality and value for money. The children had far too much on their plates. The service was also excellent.

Hartwood Hall is 'ok' if you are stuck for somewhere. We stayed on a Sunday evening and by 6pm all the Sunday roast menu was unavailable, along with a number of other side & main dishes. Tables in the pub area had plates and glasses left on them for well over an hour and it was not busy. No issues with the food we ordered, and it arrived quickly. The room was boiling hot even though the radiator was off, bed rock hard and uncomfy, shower woeful dribble but all fairly clean. TV remote very dirty/dusty between the buttons so needed a wet-wipe. Breakfast was ok, apart from drinks glasses being dirty and stuck face down to a small wooded tray; plus the cleaner was hoovering throughout the pub as the hotel guests ate breakfast. Should be done before or after breakfast. Pub staff are all friendly and helpful.

Been past here a lot of times,always busy which says everything. Carvery and great menu 3 sizes of plate, my other half had middle size Carvery and I had scampi and chips, both ok, pleasant staff and quick service will return.

Had a really nice time at Barton Grange - lots to look at, great variety of plants and I particularly enjoyed the outdoor areas. Everything is obviously very well-maintained by staff, no dying plants or empty shelves. The food was pretty good, tasted fresh and a good variety of options to pick from. If there was any downside I'd say that its quite a busy place, but that's to be expected.

Great food, friendly welcome for our lunchtime visit on the way back from the Lakes. Extensive menu with a good choice for everyone, and very reasonably priced.

We love going to The Ley for Friday night treat after work. A great new summer menu just been launched and the staff are always friendly and attentive

Absolutely great place to go food excellent staff great couldn't do enough for you prices great too loved it what a great experience

The meal came out too fast . Luke warm . Had to send it back to reheat . Been many times but tonight was dismal . £35 . Not with it

Monday nights chef Giovanni cooking up seriously good food. Valentine's Day was exceptional. Mouth watering just thinking about it.

It’s been a while since we visited here and on this visit we looked after by some excellent smartly dressed staff. Our memories of previous visits were unfortunately to be our best as the huge menu boards we enjoyed are now longer an option, the menu and variety has been drastically cut back. That said the staff actually helped to create a meal that wasn’t on the menu and so after the disappointment of the limited choices we were very pleased with the meals we had. Mid priced good sized portion meals were freshly made. Good visit made more so by some excellent staff

Great selection of beers and vicky the landlady is very helpful.

Fantastic food and menu and lovely staff - good prices and excellent atmosphere - - good location and highly recommended

This used to be a great place to go generous quality portions, now sub standard at best, not been for a few months but today the chips where poor poor quality and rock hard and the gravy was tasteless and both went straight into the bin
