What a gorgeous renovation. Very classy decor, very warm and cosy and inviting. Sadly, this doesn’t extend to some of the staff. Greeted by a mature woman who was maybe the manager to be abruptly told our booking wasn’t on the paper planner. I offered to show her the booking confirmation, for her to state ‘I can see your booking on our system, that isn’t what I’m saying, some bright spark has transferred the booking to paper and it’s not on there’… We were then told a booth was free (6 adults). I said the booth wouldn’t work due to the size (at a push you’d get 2 adults and a child seated), she suggested a chair at the end !!. Eventually, somehow miracously, a larger table became available. Drinks arrived fairly quickly, the waitress was lovely and really helpful Altho she brought cutlery over and left all 6 sets at the end of her table ?!?.. the food was nice, tasty, hot and a good variety on the menu. Unfortunately, we could also overhear another situation with the same member of staff and a customer regarding a booking. Such a shame as the staff and service were fab before the renovation. Seems customer service and training needs attention to ensure repeat bookings keep the place busy. We will try again and see…..

Whins Green KitchenWe booked a table for 4 people on Sunday at 5pm.. it was very very busy.. ( so very noisy) but that did not affect the service.. the staff are very friendly & helpful, our meal was delicious & the plates were hot, we will definatly go again
Papa Luigis – ChorleyA very enjoyable lunch. 4 of us, 2 had the Sunday Roast one beef and one chicken both were delighted with the big plate full of tasty food. One Burger and chunky fries - a really good plate full and quite delicious. The cheese and onion pie and chips also went down very well although he wasn't too sure about gravy on his cheese and onion pie, would probably have preferred it without. The service was good, the food was good and the selection of ales was good!
