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.

We arrived in Bolton and were headed to 'Spoons for lunch but as we passed Olympus it looked very inviting. Sorry 'Spoons but we went in. The staff were friendly and helpful, the food was excellent and well priced. The atmosphere was good, very busy, and we even got a bit of the pianist who was excellent. Only downside was they didn't have the range of drinks that 'Spoons have, but we will definitely call in again when in Bolton.

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

Went with family on Friday evening 6pm 4 weeks ago. As the menu says you can have 3 pieces of meat.my Son who is an adult just asked for Turkey and expected 3 slices only to be given half a slice of one piece of turkey. When I challenged this the girl said it was one slice. I was disgusted as no carvery in any resturants locally gives half a slice of turkey so feel it was a very poor value and experience and could well explain why their carpark was very empty.

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
