The best restaurants serving British food in Great Lever Bolton North West

Nipped in for some brekky, plenty of staff about, but had to order at the till which seems abit odd. Food served quickly, nice enough, price was reasonable compared to most other breakfast spots in town, certainly to sit down. Menus could do with replacing as they all seemed abit tatty.

Absolutely ridiculous service here. I went with my son and partner on the 26th of August. We ordered our food and after a good 30 minuets, after seeing other people receive there food who came in after us, I informed one of the waiters that we was still waiting. He said ‘I will check where it is now, I’m sorry about that’ but when he apologised he quite literally gritted his teeth like it pained him to apologise. A few minuets later an older bloke (who I assume is the manager) came out to apologise about the wait and said ‘we let the food go to another table by accident, you can have something else instead if you want’. Feeling like he wanted me to change my order choice I said ‘if I wanted something else I would have ordered something else in the first place’. He went and made my food and brought it out himself and stated ‘I have just bollocked them for sending your food to a different table’, shocked that he was swearing in front of my child I asked him to repeat himself and he again said ‘I have just bollocked them’ so I informed him my son is only 12 and that’s no way to act around your customers kids. A few minuets later i noticed my bread was missing from my plate so I asked the same guy who gritted his teeth where it was and he again apologised and looked at me very angrily. I turned around after he went to what I assumed was get my bread, and I noticed him at the bar talked to a young waitress and pointing at my table and laughing, a few minutes later a different chap came over and asked what was missing, I informed him I had just told somebody else so why does he need to come and check as it feels like I’m being accused of lying. He said ‘I’m just trying to establish the facts, which confirmed I was being suspected of lying so I told him to leave the bread as I won’t be accused of lying about some petty bread. Later on some older lady came out (I assume this is the managers wife) and she apologised and asked what had happened and how I felt, she was the only decent person I came across in this establishment.

Always top notch, pastry very light and fluffy, contents very good, always a delight to have a carry pasty, plus there always hot.

We came a couple of years ago and really enjoyed it. Please look at my previous review. We came last night with a mrs Rainford ….. she has reviewed before….. however things didn’t go quite as they should. Our starters went ok if a little slow and then we started hearing whispers of problems in the kitchen. We felt that we were falling behind in the pecking order, then one of the waiters came and mentioned a problem but not what. Our mains arrived and on first bite me and Diane noticed our fish was cold so we called over the lady who seemed to be overall in charge and she took our plates away. So we sat back and waited. Our partners finished their dishes and shortly afterward a female waiter came and took away all the plates and dishes, bearing in mind that nobody on the table had had a sweet. About this time I got up and went to the toilet. When I returned I was told that 2 plates of lamb had been brought and taken away because neither of us ate lamb. We hadn’t been asked that question. We weren’t approached afterwards. When Steve went to the till, he was told there was no charge and could they wrap up the sweets. Steve felt it was time to make an exit and just left to meet us at the restaurant entrance. We all know it’s a training kitchen and the staff have to learn but we felt that there needed to be more guidance . We would welcome an explanation. barrym48@btinternet.com 07794195920

Excellent service an food. The whole place was lovley an clean breakfast was delicious. Staff are well presented

Food was spectacular and the staff were so friendly and patient. 11 out of 10 perfect place to go with friends or family. The place is sooo aesthetically pleasing I would deffo come back and do reccomend whether you're coming from in or out of town. Samy was especially wonderful to us and made our experience that much more enjoyable 😊

Was recommended to visit whilst in another pub in leigh glad I called in very clean and tidy and talkative staff will be back again when in the area

Lovely building food very nice and good service by Mesha Only downside kids meal came when we had nearly finished our meals

New to the area this seems to be a great place to start the night before level. Busy atmosphere and fair beers prices before 9 after 9 it goes up to £4 a pint Just need to point out to other girls my age be careful when requesting songs as the Dj got abit over friendly with me and run his hands across my bum whilst staring at my chest. This made me feel very uneasy as he is clearly an older gentleman in his 50s. I did bring this too the attention too the doors staff who just laughed shrugged there shoulders and that’s him for you ..

Since it changed name to Mr frys prices have shot up to large chips and two mugs of tea £12 is ridiculous use to come here all the while when Allisons all the specials advertised are never on its only saving grace is Adam but don't see him much now due to delivery take aways
