The best restaurants serving British food in Wheelton and Withnell Chorley North West

Second visit here and it didn't disappoint! Loved the carrot, celery and apple soup and the egg mayonnaise sandwiches. Such a friendly, cosy cafe.

Fantastic to see the Golden Lion open again and serving food at weekends. They were doing a roaring trade and there was a fabulous atmosphere. Had a great Sunday roast dinner. Will definitely be back to work through the extensive pie menu and have more yummy sticky toffee pudding (sorry no photo - ate it too fast)

We got a voucher for a 3 course meal for 2 with processco. When we arrived we were seated quickly, drinks order taken and menu provided. We were told about the extra supplements for 1 starter, 2 of the mains and 1 dessert! Drinks came quickly and we had barely touched them before being offered more. Eventually the order was taken. We ordered all three courses at once. It was very slow but the food was lovely. The goats cheese tart to start was delicious. We both had suppliment mains (steak and duck) but they were really nice and the sticky toffee pudding was out of this world. Somewhere that actually gives you enough toffee sauce! Amazing. We enjoyed it, with drinks (2 diets cokes and 2 alcholic) and the supplements it nearly doubled the cost of the voucher but we enjoyed it.

Lovely location and interior nice but food wasn't up to par with other eating establishments in the area. Starters were good. Mains... the gammon which was extremely salty chips hard and cooked tomato stone cold, friend asked for rare steak but it was more to medium, other friends had chicken with mash, mash bland and chicken over done, nobody wanted to make a fuss so nothing said, as locals we won't return sorry to say.

We came in for some food today and the food was exceptional, it was a lovely atmosphere and our waitress jacky was outstanding, very chatty and just made us feel at home. Will deffo be back x

Profiteering from charity walk We were charged £15.15 for 4 Half's of moretti This seemed excessive, especially as jingle all the way is a charity walk for derian house hospice

Honestly, this is how a pub should be! Cracking (honestly priced) food. Engaging and knowledgeable staff. Great community atmosphere. My small child, dog and even wife were made to feel very welcome. If you’re in the area, pop by and sample some great northern food, or if you feel the need for change then there is also a fine selection of traditional German food, cooked authentically by the lovely German proprietor. Highly recommend!!!
