The best restaurants serving British food in Bolton North West

Don't waste your time. Ordered a wrap and a toastie both advertised to be served with crisp. Chose to ADD a side of fries for £2 and was served a pancake flat store bought white breaded "toastie" with a small basket of unseasoned fries. When I got up to ask where there the crisps were as no one had bothered to check was everything OK with our food/offer condiments etc, I was told its company policy that the fries replace the handful of crisps.... Paid at the counter and was asked how was our meal, argued with my feedback that it was petty and poor service. Won't be returning for food that makes wetherspoons looks michellin star quality. Much better options nearby.

Food is excellent here, a good range of dishes that are not too expensive but are very tasty plus the service is very quick, 10/10

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

It was years since we've been to this pub so decided a visit was long overdue. It was reassuring to see that not a lot had changed since our last visit and we enjoyed ourselves. It was a large group of us out on a walk and we were quickly made welcome and felt at home. They have a good range of drinks at reasonable prices and the service was fast and friendly. There are TVs showing sport around the place and lots of other rooms should you want some peace and quiet as well. On street parking is available and you will easily find a space.

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

I have never had dissapointing food from here. It can get busy at lunchtime but its so worth the wait. I have been going on and off for years. This place doubles the house prices of the entire village

Was at my brother wedding here absolutely lovely venue food , staff amazing highly recommended and 2 staff in particular shaz and Sharon were amazing lovely people

I've been going to Chaes for years and never a complaint but just lately the chips are terrible . Thin with no substance,that thin they are hard,inedible.Wont be going back until it improves.

This cafe is located in Bolton market place. The selection of *premium tea’s is spot on for someone like me who doesn’t drink caffeine, served in a pot so more than enough and at a great price! My friends cortardo was a 10/10. *None of this cheap tea bags full of chemicals! The cakes are divine-the brownies are super fresh and moist! Such a great little place to just sit and relax.

Visited on 12/03/20. I had the Breakfast Barm, I recommend it, my partner had a breakfast. Service was quick but we were not rushed. Good quality with a good price, "Danny" served us, very pleasant. We will visit again.

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

Food was okay, but pricey. Service was excellent. Quick and efficient. Friendly helpful staff.

Only a social member but love it there great atmosphere great members

Food here used to be the best, however, recently they have started to use boxed findus type fish not the fresh battered they used to cook. Customers used to queue outside but not anymore. In my opinion, quality has gone down and the price has gone up. Try another chippy.☹️

Great pub vert friendly staff and clientele. Very welcoming on Memorial Sunday and they made huge efforts to pay respects with entertainment throughout. Free 1st drink for veterans etc. Brilliant pub, will definitely go again.
