The best restaurants in Ellel, University Lancaster North West

A delightful, impromptu Sunday lunch. The staff are warm, friendly, and attentive. The festive trio Sunday lunch was lovely, with generous portions and swift service. £30pp including starters and drinks. Thoughtful touches included playing cards, games for kids, and amenities for dog owners, such as a large dog bed by the fire. We’d be happy to return!

Decent pub, quick and friendly service. A full Sunday roast. Beef was fine, mash was a little lumpy but tasty, roast veg was a little overdone. But on the whole, a good experience.

This is such a cosy place and the food is amazing!!

Food is good. Portion size is too small to warrant price tag

Lovely food and brilliant service from Suzanne and Keira. Welcoming atmosphere and everyone was very friendly! Loved the christmas decorations!!

Overall the restaurant service was good (very good choice of dishes for breakfast). We ate each evening in the restaurant. Booked table & offered water (it’s bottled so a charge). We also ordered a bottle of wine - on first night server was very professional & asked us to taste b4 pouring fully (not so the latter 2 nights). On first night we had a wait of about 20min from ordering to service (we didn’t have a starter on any occasion). We therefore expected to wait roughly the same time on the following nights. On the Friday however we actually waited almost 1hr & if there had been anywhere else to go we would have walked out. Admittedly our server was ‘in training’ & although she was pleasant & apologetic re the wait it was annoying. The last evening I decided to go for the ‘small plates’ & as I tend to eat more quickly than my husband we asked could his ‘large plate’ of sirloin steak be served first (given that server did tell us that the small plates would usually arrive first). Unfortunately my small plates came first. As we mentioned our request to (different) server who brought food they apologised & brought hubby’s steak as quickly as possible. Am not going to specify specific dishes as e.g. sauce I got with one of my choices was nice but too spicy for me & am aware that others would think it not spicy enough We didn’t think the prices of the food & wine were particularly extortionate but have had similar for cheaper. Given this we did expect some portions to be smaller than expected (especially on the small plates). The ‘specials’ were also generally good value as sides tended to be included.

We went here recently for a quick meal out. In the day’s before the fire, this place used to be one of our favourite places to eat, but sadly no more. Food now is OK, but it used to be absolutely amazing. I get a feeling it no longer independently owned. Saying that, it shouldn’t made a difference. Hopefully they can get that old standard back.

Top notch food. Great service. Lovely location. We've eaten in all the local places and this is the best by far. Well recommended!

Overnight stay as a couple in our group had been before and enjoyed. However, after their 2nd stay they would not come again. We were part of the group and thought the standard of cleanliness …particularly in our bathroom (of a ‘signature’ room) was horrendous and totally unacceptable. Mould all around the bath on silicone, dirty stained shower curtain, and mould under the metal bath handles, dirty radiator and skirtings and generally unclean. Whilst dining in the dining room cobwebs and spider over one person in the party’s head! The food was poor, one meal was refunded due to quality. Standard of hygiene needs addressing as a matter of priority

Staff are incredibly rude and unprofessional. I asked for a straw and got it thrown on the counter. I asked for extra vanilla when I was ordering, but the girl at the till did not charge for it which isn’t my fault, I asked for 2 extra pumps and was given major attitude by one of the girl (red-maroon hair), saying you know the standard is 3 and I already gave you 7 right? I asked for 2 extra pumps of vanilla as I prefer sweet coffee, which she eventually did with attitude and was not happy to give me any even though I was happy to pay for extra.

Probably my favorite restaurant on campus just because of the sheer diversity of the menu. I would just suggest avoiding the pizza. It's not the best

The best place in campus to eat 10/10

It’s quite good, 4 stars because of the price which is a bit expensive. I recommend to go on breakfast as it is way better than for lunch

El bar tiene realmente buena comida de pub, y teniendo en cuenta la calidad de la comida es una verdadera alternativa a la masa de comida rápida ofrecida en el campus. Por desgracia, el horario es corto (la cocina cierra a las 7 pm) que no es muy agradable. estudiante Los precios también podría ser un poco más bajo pero Lancaster parece ser un lugar caro. Además, hay un Starbuck's al lado (para los amantes del café).

We came here for a little retreat and its I'm a rather remote area with a beach and great views.
