The best restaurants serving British food in Town Centre Preston North West

Great tapas menu! We went on a busy night and had to wait for food, but was worth it.

Not a fan of bottomless brunches in general, only went for my daughter’s birthday. The food was so horrid it was actually amusing, I thought it was our complimentary starting platter , not a main meal to share with 6 of us 😂 chips, spring rolls and small pieces of chicken that looked and tasted like icelands’ finest. If you’re going for the food don’t bother 😂 The drinks, atmosphere and service top notch though, the bingo is good fun, time flew by. You get your monies worth with the drinks alone, glasses were never empty. Up the food quality and portions and this place will do well.

Visited for breakfast with a friend today. Service was excellent. Food great. Would recommend you pay a visit! Thanks Gail for your hospitality and service!

My husband and I have been organising regular outings for our local U3A whereby we run monthly coach trips and we have done so since 2018. On Tuesday 12th March 2024 we arranged a coach trip for 57 people to Samlesbury Hall and Clitheroe. This included having a guided tour and lunch at Samlesbury Hall. I had booked this outing in the latter months of 2023. We paid £8 each for the tour and £16 each for the lunch. For the lunch I had ordered soup and a roll, a selection of pastries and tea/coffee. In addition three weeks before our visit I submitted dietary needs for four of our members. This included a person who was requiring gluten free food. On the day of our visit the lunch was appalling in terms of the quality and quantity of food and it was certainly not worth the £16 each we had paid. The soup was not hot, it was over spiced and small in content. This came with one very small roll. Whilst some members did make some complimentary remarks over the soup it was classed as ‘dreadful’ by the vast majority of our members. Some people asked for a second roll and were informed that you can only have one! You would have thought the chef would have the experience of knowing that not everyone likes over spiced soup. When I ordered the pastries I was informed we would receive a selection of Danish pastries. On the day we received one croissant each. This cost us £6.00 each. This was followed by tea and coffee which we had to serve ourselves from thermos flasks at a central point. This was chaotic with people carrying hot drinks along with the croissant which we also had serve ourselves. When I complained the following day I was informed the soup was the standard they always serve in their restaurants and it was tested for taste etc before it was served. In relation to the selection of pastries I was informed they had received an incorrect delivery on the day and there was nothing they could do about it so they served us with a croissant each. In addition the member who required gluten free was not served with any appropriate food relating to her dietary needs. After complaining they agreed to reduce the overall cost to £12 each and informed me that they could not reduce this any further as they would be making a loss! They did however reduce the cost to £10 for the one person was required gluten free. In summary, an appalling lunch and still being ‘ripped off’ at £12 per person.

Best fish and chips we have had for ages, freshly cooked as you wait, fish so fresh I’m sure it swam straight to the plate. The fryer man is a really nice friendly person, willing to engage in conversation if customer wants. Relaxing place for lunch no loud music belting outside to spoil your time there.
