The best restaurants in Lea Preston North West

Nice and clean, lively staff and just found out 'dog friendly', at last.

Absolutely excellent, the food was fantastic, a quality buffet and lovely bar staff. Would definitely recommend booking a function here and definitely thinking of coming here for a family meal. Thank you so much as you really made Grandma Alice’s 100th birthday a special one. Xxx

Great classic english chippy, Very popular with little touches, such as pickled onions and eggs!

Been to the smiths arms with my daughter and grandson today the food was lovely and piping hot the service was great would definitely recommend to others and we will be back thanks

Never had a problem in previous visits but this particular night the steak was over well done which we didn't ask for also the mushrooms were burnt Desert and starters were nice

Luke was very polite when serving me and remembered to follow policy. The atmosphere is always good here and the food is always hot. Super friendly staff :)

Visited for lunch, only one other table occupied, so no excuses for being busy. Service very poor and slow and food even worse. Wine was not very nice. Pizza was absolutely cremated, and did not have all the toppings on that it should have done. Asked for sandwich on brown bread, when it arrived it was on white bread. The explanation was that they didn't have any brown??.......please inform me of this before you bring it as I could then have the opportunity to change my order. No atmosphere and very cold. There were 2 fires lit at either end of the pub, but these were both right next to the Two large TV'S with Darts matches blaring out, Will never be returning.

We have been to the Pig&Whistle a few times over the years and we have always had first class food and service to match and this visit was no different.The restaurant was very busy but the food was first class yet again and plenty of staff to help everyone,a special mention to the young lad serving a nice portion of meats that will bring us back in the furture.

I don't live in Preston anymore but come up frequently to visit family and the last time I came here, a couple of years ago, the food was half decent. Tonight, unfortunately, the food was terrible. I asked for a burger meal and was propositioned immediately by the kid behind the counter to the card payment machine. When i asked about what salad and sauce it came with he said 'oh right, what do you want'. I knew at that very moment that my order would be complely wrong. The burger was low quality, didn't have any salad or sauce and the chips were stale. Really poor quality considering a few years ago the food was really good here. As well as this, it's surely the earliest closing takeaway in the country? I've been past at 8:30pm and they've been closing up.

Again, a great even outstanding pub: The food is excellent, but the beer is outstanding. Definitely worth a visit. Recommended. Stu
