The best restaurants in Aughton and Downholland West Lancashire North West

Excellent breakfast cooked by the very friendly Nicola. The food is all cooked fresh. Lunch is also served each day. It’s great also in the summer as you can sit outside the back that backs onto the canal.

What a place to be. The food was unbelievable. Full of amazing touches, made with local produce. The service was superb, and the ambience and setting were perfect. Truly memorable.

Had a lovely dining experience at sō-lō food was very impressive and original in taste. Would love to return and see where else the chef will take it.

Set evening menu £65 would be good value if portion sizes were bigger as they were more like tasting menu dishes; I went home hungry despite having the cheese board supplement. The food is delicious and dietary needs can be met; they had remembered one of us was pescatarian. The dishes are well thought through but hard to enjoy fully when so small. A large team so service is swift, possibly too swift for us. Felt in a rush to get us through which meant the sommelier had to interrupt while we were eating on a few occasions to discuss the wine. Although the sommelier was very knowledgeable and engaging. Service at our table then slowed down too much when we had had the last course; left waiting for 15 minutes and would have had a coffee but were not asked or spoken to until we asked for the bill. Lovely spacious dining room with beautiful wine glasses and tableware. Toilets very cold. Not sure the pull is there for another visit given the distance from home for us.

Great experience at miller and carter great food great service

Enjoyed the evening nibbles n drinks mx

Really lovely Sunday lunch, staff where lovely and helpful we will be back

What an interesting conundrum, is this a 5 or a 4, I am going for a 4, and for the next few lines going to explain why. We were met, greeted and sat down, our pre meal drinks order taken effortlessly whilst we sat until our table was made ready; whilst waiting for our table, the staff kept our glasses topped up, in a nice provision of service. We enjoyed each course and from a technical prospective the food was masterly cooked and enjoyable, but that was it - enjoyable, there was no real dish that stretched or surprised the palate, which in my view is the sign of an aspirational restaurant not pushing its self. The level of service through the meal was excellent. Highlights of the meal - the cauliflower course and Hoggart slice / jus. Would I go back - certainly and will do so and the next menu change is made.

Lovely bar, cozy atmosphere and very fairly priced food. Staff are kind with excellent service

Travelled a while and Came on a sunday at 6pm, shut. Google says open. Poor do

My Uncle John's favorite place. Home away from home. Many thanks to all his amazing friends. He loved coming to the Kings for a pint. Don't be surprised if you see him in the shadows, just raise you glass and give him a cheers!

Absolute aughton CLASSIC. Been serving my chippies for as long as I can remember. Best chippie/Chinese food around
