Reviews in Lancashire

The wine was extremely palatable and served at a good temperature, the waitress was well presented pleasant and helpful albeit she didn't have a knowledge of some of the dishes content and surprisingly the chef was unable to give her the information either!. However the food lacked lustre as although a couple of the dishes eg. the slow cooked lamb were tasty the majority were poorly presented, tepid and some eg the gambas were overcooked. Sadly overall it was mediocre, at the best, and not an experience I would choose to repeat.

Very impressed with this hotel. Popped in today for a meeting and the place has undergone a great refurb since my last visit. A touch of international class to grim Preston!

I have just been to the double tree with my husband and two friends. The service was excellent as was the meal We will definitely be recommending it to friends. An excellent experience for us all. Well done to all the staff from four visitors from Scotland.

You cant beat it , the best in the area by far, very freindly and helpful staff and very clean.

Modern and stylish decor - an impressive refurbishment. The food is good and there was a lovely atmosphere - even on a Sunday evening. If the service was up to scratch (had to wait to be seated, had to wait for menus, had to wait to order drinks, had to wait to receive drinks, had to ask for the bill and gave up waiting for the credit card machine to be brought to the table) it would be a TOP dining establishment!

Super service by friendly efficient staff. A great ambience with a tremendous choice of drinks. The place to take that 'special someone' if you want to impress. I will be back.

Food, sensational. Price, you get what you pay for. Ambience? A delight. Staff, excellent. Somelier extremely good, hugely knowledgeable. They can't get better can they?

We've eaten at the Shapla on a number of occasions since it opened and been very happy with the food and service each time.The food is consistently good and IMHO probably the best in the area, taking over that mantle from the Usha. Staff are welcoming and provide attentive service.

Nice place nice food but definitely not a place to take kids! We went yesterday and were told to keep the kids quiet before we were even shown to our table! When I booked I did tell them we had kids with us and asked for a quiet corner and they assured us this wouldn't be a problem! I felt that they were looking at us disapprovingly all evening! Don't think I'd go again and definitely not with kids!!

I had a meal there on Tuesday October 8th and it was excellent. The food and service were first class. I didn't collect a vat receipt for my expenses. Can you please send me one for £21.15 to :- Mr Brian Wrightson 26, Woodhorn Gardens Wide Open Tyne and Wear NE13 6AG Many Thanks and I shall return asap.

Great contempary interior, delicious food and speciality tribute nights. Well worth a visit.

Food was ok, value for money not bad but it's got a long way to go to reach premiere and Shagor standards and quality.

OMG! Our first visit to Calypso but it definitely won't be our last. The food was amazing! We came on recommendation from a friend and Wow we werent disappointed. Our night was made even more enjoyable by the young waiter called Niall who is an absolute credit to the restaurant. We are now in the process of organizing a girls night out and will be returning very soon!! Cant wait!

Not only does the beaumont have very good food, the beer if you are a real ale fan is the best in Clayton le Woods bar none.

Had a buffet there and it was pretty poor. Excellent meat pies, 7 nice buttered new potatoes but as for the rest not very good it even included Birdseye chicken dippers unbelievable.

Great home-cooked food, good choice of beers and great atmosphere! Also dog-friendly which was an added bonus!

Been twice recently can't praise enough the friendly atmosphere,attentive staff and excellent food. Fillet steak was cooked perfectly and good price too. Sunday lunches are great and portion size huge,have recommended to all and sundry,well done.

Popped in after a film this very night, had been meaning to visit for some time as I picked up a taste for Mexican(esque) food during visits to the States. Went for a large pulled pork burrito, and overall it was good. The meat was lean and tasty, though I felt it could have been a little spicier (I know to add some chipotle next time) and the rest of the fillings were well balanced. Service was efficient and even though they had another large order underway, I was still in and out within around 5 minutes. Only slight disappointment was having gone for and devoured the large burrito, I wasn't full. All in all a nice change from the standard fast food norm, will definitely go back and am hoping the menu includes some other Mexican favourites in the future.
