New Hall Tavern – PrestonFabulous fresh food.
Checcos – PrestonWe had a classy meal at the Continental. The Ham Hock salad and the chicken livers with poached egg and black pudding were amazing and filling but I hate having to pay extra for veg with main course. Fish is cooked beautifully, Chips are excellent, new potatoes also buttery. The desserts are divine but need more sauce and more ice cream . Service could have been better .Well definitely be back . Best location in area and best beer
The Continental – PrestonEnjoyed a very good lunch in the newly refurbed Angelos before embarking on Christmas shopping. I had Saffron Salmon Ravioli and my missus the spicy pasta. Interesting new menu with non Italian options too. The refurb is modern and slick without being too contemporary. impressed!
Angelos – PrestonIncredible tea shop with the best range of teas I have ever seen or tasted!, try the Yerba Mate for an Argentinian pick me up or the Milk oolong for something truly unique. Great service and great place to relax !
Mystery Tea House – Prestoni've lived in Preston for 45 years, and can see it for what it is, - not a city but a dirty, dying town. what it has done to deserve a gem like this is beyond me. the young polish staff are a credit to their parents, it's just a pity that the staff who normally work in the service industry aren't as pleasant, helpful, knowledgeable.... give it a go and you'll run out of superlatives. didn't try the food, but if you can convince yourself to try something other than a cup of nescafe or builders tea, you will be hooked. the decor and cleanliness of the cafe is second to none wishing them all the best for the future, they deserve to succeed john
Mystery Tea House – PrestonQuite simply, this place is a hidden gem. The staff are wonderful and helpful, and the tea selection is out of this world. After coming out of there, you feel so relaxed and calm. Amazing, simply amazing.
Mystery Tea House – PrestonAfter goodness knows how many fantastic meals at both POND & DUK thought it about time I write a review! My friend and I had a delicious lunch yesterday and her very specific dietary requirements were met without a hint of inconvenience. As always the food was divine, service exceptional, wonderful ambience and very reasonable bill. Everything is always perfect, just too hard to chose from the huge and varied menu. What I really love about it is that day or night, summer winter, shopping, business or pleasure it's just right - not many places master this but POND never disappoints whatever the occasion! Just booked for our xmas do and can't wait!!!
Duk-Pond – Prestonfantastic but long wait for the table but well worth it though service great food fab all in all good night out, special board is superb !
Checcos – PrestonFour of us dined at the Fusion Room last night (Saturday 14 November 2009) and found the whole experience very enjoyable. The set price menu of £16.50 for two courses plus wine from £9.75 a bottle represented very good value. The quality and presentation of the food was excellent (my lamb shank was tender and tasty and my wife's plaice on pasta was delicious), the atmosphere was lively and the service was friendly & efficient. Definitely one to revisit .
Fusion Room – PrestonThe Sagar Premier has in my opinion always been the best Indian restaurant for miles around, but as it has just been completely refurbished (Nov 09) it's now in a league of it's own. New decor, bar, seating, linen, lighting etc make the ambience quite special. The food is great and the service friendly and efficient too! It's the eatery of choice for my whole family !!
Sagar Premier – Prestonfantastic. i haven't enjoyed the food, service and atmosphere in one place for such a long time. thank you the white bull. you have provided us with a fabulous local pub and restaurant. jj
The White Bull Hotel Ribchester – PrestonWe went to this restaurant on on Friday evening a couple of weeks ago and the meal was fantastic to say the least i had the fillet steak and pepper sauce the veg and potatoes were amazing i must beg you to go and try it at least once before you die it was that good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Porcinis – PrestonI highly recommend the barton bangla. The service is exceptional and the food is with you in a matter of minutes! your starter is even waiting for you at the table after you have ordered your food in the waiting room! the food is fantastic 5* and the portions are great. best indian i have ever eaten at!
Barton Bangla Brasserie – PrestonI have been to eat at the continental numerous times, and on every occasion the food has been fantastic. The service is always excellent and friendly, and if there is a bit of a wait it is probably because diners have not booked in advance. Last time I dined there I had pork belly with black pudding, which I worried would be very fatty, but it was the best I`d ever had. I love this place! I`d rather nobody else came though, because there have been a few times I haven`t managed to get a table. On second thoughts this is an awful place, stay away you people.
The Continental – PrestonVisited pond on sunday had a great time, restaurant was fairly busy and service was very good, our fussy needs were easily met, the food delicious and fresh would definitely recommend, we joined a drink in the lounge area which was most welcome after a huge meal ! and i have suggested we all go for our Christmas do. So we are very excited to come back again. We are already regulars at duk and its lovely to see both doing well.
Duk-Pond – PrestonWent last night with my husband to celebrate my 40th birthday. Had heard brilliant things about this restaurant and Duk, it's sister restaurant, but been unable to get a table in the past. To be honest, though, was really unimpressed. One of the waitresses was very rude to the couple sat next to us while we were waiting to be seated at our table, which put me off immediately. There is a huge amount of choice in the menu, but we chose 12 dishes and didn't think very much of any of them - they weren't very hot when they came out, and most of the lettuce served with the salad garnishes was really past it's best and a bit slimy! I wouldn't have served it in that state to guests in my house! It was as though everything we were being served leftovers from the weekend, and maybe we would have had a better experience later on in the week. It was just ok - I wouldn't return, nor would I bother with Duk. A disappointing celebration.
Duk-Pond – PrestonHIGHLY recommend Angels - we went for the first time last night and had a fabulous meal. The food is worthy a Michelin star as far as I'm concerned. And at £22 for a 3-course meal, including teas/coffees, it's very well priced too. Not keen on the decor in the bar area though... it's got all a bit too much crushed velvet, feathers and general bling going on for my liking, but don't let that put you off! The interiors in the dining room are a bit more subdued thankfully. We'll definitely go again and will recommend to anyone we know.
Angels – PrestonSunday Lunch: 1 course, £18.95; 2 courses, £23.95; 3 courses, £28.95. Available 12pm-8pm Sundays.
