Reviews in Lancashire

First ate at the sultan over twenty years ago, it had a very good reputation then and having recently moved back to the area it is still excellent. The dishes are well prepared and I've always found the staff very friendly and attentive. Always recommend it.

Good food and service as always. Sundays menu is definitely value for money.

Unfortunately there was a large group of very loud girls/women who had had a skinful, the music was very loud which meant everyone in the place was having to shout to be heard. Although the food was good and the waiter very nice we won't go back on a Saturday night, even though it was a 7 o'clock booking, we couldn't wait to get out. Have been many times on a Sunday and never had a problem.

My second visit following a Christmas lunch with work. Excellent menu options, fantastic service and fabulous food. A lovely atmosphere and already busy at 6pm when we arrived. We will certainly be visiting again.

Booked for a Saturday early evening and ordered the tapas. Waited for over an for it during which time we saw at least a dozen takeaway and just eat orders processed as we say outside the kitchen doorway. This place needs to decide if it is a restaurant or a slightly upgraded takeaway with tables charging £20 for a bottle of cheap Pinot Grigio. Suffice to say the good was bang average and the chicken massively overcooked. May well be different during the week but at the weekend don't bother unless you phone it in.

I ate here on a wet windy wednesday night. I havent been here since the new bar was added and have to say it was pretty impressive and a welcome addition to the building. We were shown in to the bar and given menus and drinks order taken. We ordered Caprese Salad and garlic bread for starters and a couple of pizzas for main courses. All in all it was ok however next time will order something from the specials menu for a change.

Best food I've had in a long time truly fantastic

Good food and ambience.

Excellent food and great service. Our first visit and we’ll be back again

This is the fourth time we have visited and have thoroughly enjoyed our evening meal each time. The food is beautiful, with a thoughtful menu that is well cooked, plentiful and nicely presented. Service is great. The atmosphere is relaxed and you leave feeling that you have had a really lovely meal out. I can’t recommend highly enough!

Amazing food, amazing service. Will definitely be back again. Thank you

Very good

Had a fabulous meal once again . Service was impeccable and the food was amazing.Simon was very attentive and Johnathan makes amazing gin and tonics. Be back very soon .

Popped in for lunch yesterday. Sandwiches were delicious and my mum especially enjoyed the chunky chips. My only feedback would be to have a stronger tea.

Visited the bistro for the second time on Valentine’s Day, and once again was blown away by not only the food but the service, I cannot fault it. Would highly recommend the Ginger Bistro as the food is delicious and the staff go above and beyond to ensure you have a lovely evening. Thank you once again!

This was a Sunday afternoon offer pre theatre. The Staff in the resturaunt were good, very helpful, and had to help to overcome the complaints about the quality of the meals served.There were 2 tables occupied, and both tables (4 people) had problems with the quality of food served.The soup was ok. Both tables ordered beef (3 people) it arrived cold ,very fatty,with no green veg, the yorkshires were burnt to a crisp, On request, we were informed there was no Horseradish Sauce!! I had a very poor Risotto. cold ,stodgy.We were offered replacements,but we declined,as the first meals were so bad. if you wish to make a success of this resturaunt, you should employ a Chef who can cook.Our first experience in your resturaunt will be our last,and unless you can dramatically improve the quality of food served, your business wont last long

Went for sunday lunch , not that busy really but had to wait over an hour for our food to be served, staff really nice but only 2 of them seemed understaffed in kitchen , food nice when it eventually came but all came at different times so couldn't eat together, there were 5 of us and 2 had finished before the others got there s , ok for drinks but wouldn't go again for food unless service improved drastically.

We have been on a Sunday several times in the past and always had excellent food and service. As we have not been for a while we decided to go again for the Sunday menu, their website says 2 courses £19, when you get there the menu has on £20.50. We were shown to our table drinks order taken, my husband had a shandy which was very flat. We decided to have a main and desert. Hubby ordered roast beef which I couldn’t have eaten as it was very rare. I had sea bass which I was so pleased about as the skin was crunchy how I like it but was far too salty. With our meal we got 2 small roast potatoes each, small potion of cauliflower cheese and carrots, very poor. We then asked for the desert menu to which she forgot to bring, I wouldn’t mind if it was busy but there were very quiet. After she started a few jobs she realised she had forgotten our menus. My hubby had sticky toffee pud which was lovely, I had the creme brulee which was tiny. The lady who took our main order in the past has been very pleasant but this time she must have been having a bad day, couldn’t even produce a smile. We both said we will definitely not be going back.
