Went for dinner at the (new look) Italian Orchard last Sunday and was very impressed. They have revamped the entrance and bar area and with the open fire it’s a great spot to sit and peruse the menus (and peruse them you need to). The specials are just as extensive as the main a la carte and if you’re into your wine there’s loads of (all-Italian) bottles to choose from. I had the Pasta Rustica and my wife the Stroganoff and both thoroughly enjoyed. Great atmosphere as always and a pianist playing. Worth the journey.

Loved our food and the place. A cool restaurant to go in Preston though we are from Lytham. Will definitely go back!

One of my all time favourite places. Old fashioned in a good way. Best duck in the UK I'm sure. Now has a brewery and great beer too!

Brilliant food and prosecco . Customer service excellent!

Best Italian! Molto buono grazie!

This restaurant is fabulous it’s our little secrecy hideaway The 2 course menu is superb the salt/pepper calimari and sea bass main are our particular favourites and excellent value The staff are very courteous I was very angry by the comment below obviously froma jelous competitor In a way I’m loathed to give a good review as it may spoil it for us but We should give good praise when it’s the truth

The worst place to go for shisha and food, a headache that lasted days and the food made me sick. Preston Council produce extensive documents for illegal shisha lounges but allow this to go through?

The Boars Head has had a refurb and looks great! A great dining pub near Preston, Bolton and Chorley.

Having read the derisory report on this restaurant by "c" I felt compelled to write a rebuttal, an drateful thanks he doesn't live in the area. He clearly wouldn't recognise good wholesome food if it jumped out of the pan and smacked him on the nose. This restaurant visited for the first time since re-opening as The Silk Route is a quality place. Great friendly staff, an ample varied menu, and thechef can make anything a customer wants, So "c" if you want the usual tat,of burgers,weird chicken or wispy washy fish and chips just go there, seems more like your style, and leave the classier places to those who know, are prepared to enjoy and pay for good food, service and ambience. A rare thing in Corbyns Weary World sadly but we will see more when we leave that awful set of demented money grabbing thieves in Bruxelles. Keep going down the Silk Road, they know how to do it.

Gotta love this place...been coming here since it opened in 1985 ?? Italian food at its best! Bon apetito X

A while since I’ve been here and it just seems to keep growing and growing. The food hall is fab with an interesting wine shop whilst upstairs there is furniture and clothes leading across to the restaurant. We only dropped in for a coffee on a Saturday morning but it was very pleasant with some big leather sofas to sink into. Have to say though I was very surprised at the number of people here eating breakfast at 11am. Not bleary-eyed students after a night out but middle-aged and elderly couples!

We found The Cottage, in 1978, when our daughters were little, in the early 80's we had the most delicious afternoon teas, on our many visits

Aah it's really good.Nice decor, good atmosphere and the food is good!! And loads of cocktails!!

Oh I do like this place

Absolutely stuffed ourselves here. Great food and atmosphere!

Very disappointing, my wife and I were there for a special occasion and the food was Ok. However there seemed to be mouse droppings on the floor and when I mentioned it they ignored it.

What a lovely afternoon was had by all our party aboard the Search for Santa Magical Cruise. Myself, mother, niece and great nephew thoroughly enjoyed the trip and all of us got to meet Santa and his elves and we also had a visit from Olaf (the snowman from Frozen). We were served mulled wine and mince pies and all the children received two presents from Santa after we found him along the canal. Thank you to all at Canal Boat Cruises for the best visit Santa I have ever been to.

Four of us went to Winedown on Saturday evening. The weather was atrocious so it was great to get settled down in this subterranean wine bar. We drank a fair few bottles along with some fine cheese, meats and nibbles. Dougy the host was excellent and knew his wines. Will return and would recommend.
