Reviews in Lancashire

Great location ,, by lancaster canal looking a bit tatty in parts carpets etc... service was reasonable .... food took a while to arrive [ but it was friday night ] portions where decent and hot ...!! prices about average !!

Tom’s table did not disappoint. The food was absolutely delicious, beautifully presented, with warm and friendly staff. My two friends are meat eaters and I’m vegetarian… it was absolutely yummy. Will definitely go back and highly recommend it to anyone who lives in the area or visitors to the Ribble Valley. Ruth

Food was excellent but was a little surprised that we only had a 1 hour 45 minute slot. We were only told after 1 hour 40 when the next group arrived for their table. A little rushed at the end which was a shame as everything else was spot on.

My partner and I visited here last Friday and I was underwhelmed to say the least. We ordered starters, I had flatbread with hummus and balsamic, my partner had the cauliflower and red pepper soup with a bread roll. The flatbread you can’t go wrong with. The soup was lukewarm and the bread roll was frozen in the middle. We complained about the bread roll being frozen and they took it away to replace it. It took 15 mins for a replacement roll to arrive by which time my partner had finished her soup otherwise it would have been cold and we would have had to wait even longer for the starter. The worst things about this scenario was was when the bread roll was sent back hearing the Chef shout “for f##ks sake” I have been a Chef for 45 yrs and have rarely heard this type of behaviour. The bad language continued throughout the time we were eating. For Main course I had the Duck which to be fair was very nice. My partner had the Gammon, which was extremely salty and really not enjoyable. My partner asked for some salad dream and the waiter said I don’t know if we do that, but after 5 minutes brought some sachets to the table. To add insult to injury the senior waitress said she had discounted us. In fact all she did was knock 15% off the price of our starter so about 75p. I always look if I get value for money in a pub/restaurant. If I pay £20 in Wetherspoons it is what it is. That meal we had was not worth £56 and the swearing coming out of the Kitchen shows a total lack of professionalism, we shall not be returning.

We dined last night at Tom’s Table for the first time, the customer service I have to say was excellent - after feeling like many places just don’t value this aspect of any dining experience. The food was of excellent standard so much so we booked for Christmas Eve. I would absolutely recommend to anyone. Thank you for a lovely evening

Went for a mid-week dinner for two and had a lovely warm welcome on arrival. Service was excellent and the food was delicious. Ham hock fritter was so tasty and with plenty of crispy panko breadcrumbs. Both of us devoured our main courses and my dessert was a decadent end to the meal. Great bottle of wine, that was corked up so we could take home, as one of us wasn't drinking. The whole front of house team were friendly and our food was presented well. A lovely relaxed evening, in a nice, comfortable environment. I will be back again!

Always great service and excellent food

Great meal great service considering how busy it was

Fantastic meal, took the family out on a visit to our daughter at Uni, we had 2 vegans and a vegetarian with us, all meals were served in good time, staff were very friendly and the food was lovely. Will definitely come again.

Very Good food. Good location. Front of house and at times bad customer service need to be addressed

Lovely setting, great ambience and superb food

Superb food as always! Easy online booking as well.

Been coming here for more years than I care to remember! Took my daughter yesterday and had a fab meal, which cost no more than the pub we normally nip to. Efficient web booking system, really great food and professional service.

Best Italian restaurant in the area, excellent food, great menu, friendly and pleasant staff - can't ask for more - every time we go - so consistently good in everyway

This was our first time here and it won't be our last . Amazing quality vegan food for afternoon tea. Also wonderful views.

Wanted to try the Waterwitch for years and never got around to it. Finally booked a table for lunch on line - dead easy. Turned up slightly early, cheerful greeting and shown to table immediately. Very nice selection of beers and those selected in the party well received. Food nicely presented and well cooked. Great ambiance watching a few boats go by as well as plenty of people watching as they moved along the towpath. Will not wait another twenty years before visiting again!

We had an anniversary meal on Friday evening. The booking experience over the phone had been painful - I had to spell everything out about 3 times. However the meal (we both chose venison) was very good. Service was a little slow to begin with - we were upstairs and felt we'd been forgotten. I would ask to sit downstairs next time - there was a better atmosphere down there.
