Latest Recommendation

The Olive Press, Warrington

We came to Warrington on a Birthday celebration. We dined on a Saturday night the restaurant was very busy. We were seated within 5 mins and the service was excellent. Food was even better. We had 3 children in the party and they loved making their own pizzas at the table. With the children entertained we had such a relaxed evening. The seafood risotto was out of this world. We will definitely be returning. Highly recommended.
