Reviews in Kirkham

You really can't fault the Buraq, top quality food (and lots of it) excellent service and very good value for money.

The menu is just superb, service is great. A wide array to tantalize every taste buds. The curries are fantastic and the kebab is scrumptious with massive amount of salad and sauce.

great place for eating with friends, relaxed atmosphere, food just wonderful and lots of it, staff very nice and helpful, Go again and again

went there last week with famliy and the food was really nice and the service we got was great, i never really wanted to go top buraq because i thought it will be rubbish but family insisted to go so i went. the food the place, was really good made and soafs great seated. they gave us a smile at the door when we walked in, the food didn't take too long but average as it was busy because of a saturday as expected. but the food was really great the people were really nice and a think people should go there often i would love to go again. they have some good looking workers lol i think they were really fit.....

The welcome, service and best of all the great food will always make you want to return for more to this fabulous Thai restaurant. We live a 70 mile round trip away from Orathai but it's well worth the visit and never disappoints.

Boater-friendly pub with huge portions of food, make sure you are hungry when you go for a meal! Great selection of games for kids and adults alike. Nice to have a landlord and lady who are actually interested in building up a pub that is tucked away from the thronging masses. Join the select group that frequent the Hand & Dagger by boat! (Thanks for the protective shoe covers!)

Enjoyed a good Sunday lunch at the Villa. Good food and service

The food was absolutely disgusting. The fish and chips was very watery and the pie and mash looked like it had been on a hot plate for hours.the veg looked like it had been stewong all day.Just dont go...................

went to burqah last night, was pleasantly surprised, nice bright modern decor, buzzy atmosphere good service and you get free popadoms!! Had a lamb roghan josh, slightly chewy bit oily but very nice all the same, would eat here again.

i had a finger nail in my take away

We have been visiting the Lancashire Canal with some friends and have stopped at most of the Pub/Restaurants during our two week trip. The one that stood out to all of us was the Hand and Dagger for service and good English food, all the staff we encountered on both visits were very helpful and this is not the case in many pubs now a days. We found the little pub quaint and the surrounding area was beautiful as the leaves were changing colour and looked wonderful. We had some nice beers and one or two wine more than we should have but we were swept away by the warm and friendly atmosphere. Would recommend this place to anyone.

Some friends and I visited the Hand and Dagger on Friday evening and found to our surprise that the place had lots of soldiers in the pub and jeeps and tents in the field. the first thing that we noticed was the pub was busy and everyone was having a great time. We had some drinks and sat down to look at the menu. Straks, mixed grills, 10oz gammons we did not know what to choose. We ordered and very soon we all had some of the finest looking food we have seen, and they where every bit as good as they looked. Soon a Karaoke man arrived and now full of fine food and one or two pints later we settled in for what was a brilliant evening. We had a ball and will be back soon for more of this excellent food and drink.

My friends and i were here last weekend for the second time this year. Again the food, drink and atmosphere was fantastic. We all had the steak on the saturday night and a huge breakfast the next morning, which i have to say was second to none and cooked fresh (None of your laying under the hot plate for 3 hrs rubbish) lol. Alan and Lucy as per the last time we stayed the weekend for an event, where the perfect hosts and ever attentive to the needs of everyone in attendance. How they both manage to be so up and positive all the time is beyond me lol. A lovely couple, good ales, and continued good food. What else could you ask for, Kenny Morland

This was our first visit and found it excellent value for money having the £9.50 buffet. The welcome and service we received very good and genuine. The only point I would raise is that perhaps on arrival when seated in the waiting area and informing the host of the intent to have the buffet, is the host should ask if this was our first time and present us with the buffet menu (which we only saw on departure). Now we know the 'score' we will be back!

Have never made it to Buraq before - partly because it’s Kirkham-way and requires a drive to get there and partly because from the outside it doesn’t look up to much (the Little Chef school of architecture). But they say never judge a book by the cover and having eaten at Buraq for the first time this week I have to say I was really blown away by the experience. There’s a stylish bar area with funky lighting, wooden floors, comfy leather sofas and chunky wooden tables and a dining room that is really more like a fine dining restaurant. We got a booth as it was fairly quiet on a Wednesday evening, and literally spent five minutes complimenting the décor and ambience. Quite simply, you will not find a more luxurious Indian restaurant in the Fylde. And as for the “mints” at the end you will have to go there and find out for yourselves. . .

good food shame about the service! visited here for a meal on a weekday about 5.30 for the 3 course earl bird. Nice enough food but took AGES to come. Think 2and a half hours is a long time in which to have a meal (especially with a young child). Mentioned this as we paid - they said they were short staffed. We have eaten there a few times in the past and its always been the same. Sadly now won't be going back. Buck up your service the Grapes!!!

This was our first visit to the Eagle and Child... and wow! The food was absolutely beautiful and there was plenty of it!! I even asked for a 'doggy bag'! The staff were excellent - polite and incredibly helpful. The price was excellent in relation to the quality of food. I can't rate this pub, proprietor and staff highly enough - we will definitely be going back soon.

Had a meal here last weekend whilst camping nearby, and the curry was excellent - thoroughly recommended. The only downside, as mentioned by other posters on here, was that our request for a jug of tap water resulted in an expensive bottle instead, without any prior warning, and the 'we don't serve tap water' policy was only explained when I queried why they had provided me with a bottle. C'mon people, get a grip - this is not acceptable now, and the £6.10 charge for a glass of diet coke and some water meant that we didn't leave a tip, not to mention this poor review. When are places like this going to realise that policies like this result in bad publicity, and cost them money? Just to re-iterate though - the food was excellent!
