We had a meal and the food was great although the staff were to shy to even come talk to us whilst at our table. A big scream of HOW ARE YAH! as soon as you walk in which I found very disrespectful for I am a man who considers a calm evening and a nice chat with the workers, which I am not satisfied with. My favourite was watching the waiter move very fast and frisky with the trolley. Besides that the venue is very neat and was told I would not find a single bit of dust in any corner of the restaurant ,which I am very pleased with. I give them a thumbs up on hygiene. They are doing the very best they can but can be more active with the customers.

VISITED NEW YEARS EVE A PARTY OF SIX. WE HAD EXCELLENT FOOD AT A VERY REASONABLE PRICE, FIRST CLASS SERVICE AND TO CAP IT ALL CHAMPAGNE AND FIREWORKS TO BRING IN THE NEW YEAR. WELL DONE TO EVERYONE AT GREAT LAND.

Went for Sunday lunch and had the roast beef. Absolutely delicious- tender, very tasty and well cooked fresh vegetables. Drinks a bit pricey but beautiful setting and will go back in the spring to dine outside with great views across the valley.

Was going to go to Langs of Longton, priced there menu against the fat bull menu needless to say Fat Bull was alot cheaper when paying for four people to dine on similar products ie fillet steak with a sauce chips and vegetables.. Place was busy service was Ok, will be going back often only downer was we ordered Pancetta with smoked cheese as a accompaniment to one of the main courses, once main courses served it did not arrive,we asked for it 3 times still not brought to the table, low and behold it was on the bill, when we questioned why we were told because we ordered it, told it did not arrive was informed sorry we are busy if you had reminded a member of staff it would have been forth coming (bang head on wall moment). Still bloody good grub though place is not posh or pretentious like some restaurants around the North West

We booked in for a meal early on New Years Eve. I ordered Minestrone Soup as a starter but was disappointed that the waitress didn't come with parmesan cheese to sprinkle on the top. I have never known this before! When the pizzas came the waiter was in so much of a rush that he just plonked the pizzas down on the table without bothering to find out who was having what. The pizzas were large and well cooked but lacked flavour. The place itself was nice and comfortable and we were served fairly quickly.

I thank you for our late booking on new years eve, everything 100.Thanks Jill

Drinking mojitos, eating jerk chicken and curried goat, best Sunday ever.

Great Home cooked food and good value for money staff pleasant and polite.

A really pleasant experience every time. I have been visiting the Borough for a number of years and not once have I walked away feeling disgruntled! Great service, delicious food and a perfect ambience for any social occasion.

A superior Indian restaurant in terms of food quality, presentation and their take on famous Indian dishes. Service was good. The food took a while to arrive which I saw as a positive. In many Indian venues the food appears in seconds, reheated. Here it would appear they cook to order. The Chapati bread was the best I have had as it was fresh and tender. Why do other lesser Indian restaurants serve old breads and popodoms? It's insulting that such basic foods are not fresh. The place looks a bit naff. Perhaps they think it cool and contemporary. We felt it looked dated, which is a problem with restaurants who go for trendy styling. Anyway, I went for a good curry and I got one. Would recommend.

Used to be a proper canal side pub with music and eccentric locals now it is just another restaurant. Nothing is done to cater for the loyal locals who kept the pub solvent or for the music lovers who came in droves from miles around to see and hear the cream of local talent.

Try their New Years eve package, excellent value, no added on costs for this night.

A party of five of us including my wife and our two grownup kids plus one of their partners dined off the lunch time set menu to celebrate my wife's birthday and our anniversary .The choice of courses were impressive, I went for the twice baked smoked fish soufflé , this came with a mustard sauce , it was wonderfully flavoursome and set me up nicely for my main course of slow cooked pork belly , this arrived served on top of the best Dauphinoise potatoes have ever tasted accompanied with braised red cabbage and seasonal veg ,The pork was as succulent as you would find anywhere , again a massive thumbs up . I rounded things off with a superbly made autumn fruit jam roly poly and custard . The other party members had a mixture of Pate , soup and black and white pudding Roulade for starters followed by one fish and chips and three slow braised shin of beef . All rounded off by homemade cheesecake , sticky toffee pudding and a interestingly named Chorley rocky road . Again no body could find fault with any element of their meals . the service was attentive and polite ., the price was an incredible £14.95 for three courses. This is the best value for money and quality you will find for miles around.

We enjoyed a very nice lunch at the Plough at Eaves last week. It was very busy which is always a good sign. We are going back for dinner soon!

Love the food, love the staff, love the restaurant. Great Food, not to be missed!, Would recommend it to you all!

Excellent service, lt's attention to detail. very welcoming, great atmosphsere, really enjoyed it.

I am a chef and I was very impressed. The food and value for money is outstanding! I will be going again very soon.

Well we live very locally to the renamed Fat Bull here in Wheelton and gave it the best part of a month to get up an running properly before we gave it a try but tonight we decided we would walk down and have a look. What a great welcome from the staff and a great reasonably priced meal to boot. We had a shared spicy nacho starter, my wife the burger and myself the steak and ale pie. All were a great success. In fact I had to finish a quarter of the burger as it was so filling. By time we left almost every table was full and it was a Wednesday night. I would have loved cask bitter rather keg but that is just a minor thought. We will certainly be back and I can now say we have a great local establishment that is not over priced as in its past guise it certainly was. In fact I will be looking to take family quite soon, probably stick to quieter weekday than weekend as the building is not the biggest but if service and food is as good next time then they are on to a winner if they can keep up the standard. Well done.
