The best restaurants in Kingsway Halton North West

I was blown away with the quality of the food 😋 I have been many times and always enjoyed but the Christmas Dinner today was amazing 👏 Staff and students very friendly, polite and helpful

Toni has the nicest coffee and the yummiest cakes. Toni is always smiling and I wouldn’t go anywhere else she makes my day

Outstanding Chinese. Without a doubt the best in Widnes. Special fried rice and special chow Mein are superb. Nice fresh crunchy veg and tender meats. Brilliant service and a really friendly driver. Quick delivery too. Cannot recommend highly enough

So we hired the outside under cover decking area for a surprise party yesterday. We had a buffet and added the chicken curry. Food was great and very plentiful. Staff were lovely and responsive. We had music playing through the speakers to add for the atmosphere. It was a cold night and it is outdoors but the blankets and heaters helped! Thanks for a great night

Fantastic food and great staff. Thank you very much to all at the woodlands. Will definitely be returning. 👍👍 was a brilliant choice

Walked in walked out. Terrible bar service, Terrible seating and despite advertised as a sports bar no Premier league on.

From start to finish - top class!! Such lovely friendly and welcoming staff greeted us on arrival. The food was, by far, the best meal I have had out in ages. It is very reasonably priced. My steak was cooked exactly how I'd asked for it. One of the specials was a 4 meat lasagne, which my sister had. It was the right sized portion and she said it was absolutely delicious. There were 8 of us and every single plate was empty at the end. My nephew has allergies and nothing was too much trouble to cater for him. What was nice was it wasn't the staff that came and asked if the food was ok but the chef himself. He spoke with everyone dining. Which I thought was a lovely thing to do. I can highly recommend a visit

This Indian is great for 5 courses for £18.You can take your own alcohol as they dont serve this.The food is tremendous great value for money and comes to you very quick.

Great cafe and great staff. Nice coffee and food, but expensive. Went up again in April. Queues always mega. Some of the obvious profits need to be reinvested into another coffee machine and another till to reduce waiting times. As many others have said lots of barking dogs and the 3 barks and you’re out rule is never enforced. Shame as we frequented the cafe regularly but not so much nowadays.

Petrol station Having a problem at a pump I tried using the HELP phone which is a complete joke, takes you through to main menu of store and tells you if you have a complaint to visit the website.....tried contacting the store on my mobile and got same menu...then spoke to a member of staff collecting trolleys who said he was the person to assist but then was a total waste of time as just shrugged his shoulders and laughed and said he didn't know...system there is a farce and is not for customers who might need assistance..

I have only had food from here twice but it has been very good both times I had become disillusioned with the quality of food at a few places in Widnes but have found Tamarind to be much better There are some interesting dishes on the chef’s specials so there’s a bit more to choose from than the usual suspects

I would definitely recommend this place, service was quick with a range of toppings to choose from, I especially enjoyed the mario themed pizzas

Worst Chinese I have ever had the curry mild is like water my advise go somewhere else. My partners food her dish was full of oil. The beef is cheap and nasty

McDonald’s Widnes (The Hive): Where Dreams are Microwaved and Nostalgia is Deep-Fried There was a time when McDonald’s had a sense of magic. When Ronald McDonald still smiled from the walls with his sinister clown grin, and that weird Hamburglar bloke lurked in the background, like a French mime with unresolved issues and a compulsive need to nick burgers. Where are they now? Probably buried with the truth on Epstein’s island. Now, McDonald’s Widnes at The Hive is more like a polished dystopia. A place where the food arrives faster than thought, the joy is artificial, and the ketchup-covered iPads have become the true rulers of the restaurant. The kids race for them like Black Friday shoppers in the early 2000s, elbows flying, screens smeared with more sauce than sense. The screens aren’t just sticky—they’re biohazards in touchscreen form, and if the Chinese government had seen the sheer microbial warfare going on, they’d have spun a PR campaign so good we’d all be blaming a Happy Meal toy for starting the pandemic. Luckily, Widnes folk—raised on a diet of industrial runoff and asbestos-adjacent playgrounds—possess a Teflon-coated immune system. You could lick the floor of this McDonald’s and still make it to bingo that evening. I had the veggie wrap, which wasn’t bad. Not amazing. Not identifiable. The “veg” inside could’ve been a blend of peas, regret, and damp fibreboard, but it was wrapped tightly like a hot yoga instructor’s self-esteem, and the sauces did the heavy lifting. The chicken nuggets, cooked to golden oblivion in breadcrumbs and what felt like a mild clingfilm undercoat, went down suspiciously well. McDonald’s food doesn’t taste like anything in the wild, but it tastes like it always has—which is comforting in the way instant mash or a Sunday evening argument about the bins is comforting. A heartfelt shout out to the Deliveroo and Just Eat drivers, who mill about near the back like a warm-up squad for the Widnes Vikings, jostling for orders in what can only be described as a high-stakes domestic rugby scrum. Their hustle is admirable, if slightly terrifying. The staff? They try their best, trapped in a loop of buzzing screens and milkshake machine trauma. The toilets? Locked behind a system so secure you’d think the Colonel was hiding in there. As I sipped my Coke and gazed out toward the glow of the retail park lights bouncing off the murky waters of Spike Island, I missed the simpler times. Times when burgers were happy, Ronald was weird but present, and a trip to McDonald’s didn’t feel like a Black Mirror special written by Alan Bleasdale. Still, the wrap filled a hole. The nostalgia left a bigger one.

Beside Asda so quite handy . Great for parking
