About The Ginger Bistro

The Ginger Bistro is a smart new neighbourhood restaurant that opened at the end of 2018 in Fulwood, Preston. It’s on the site of what was Slice of Sicily on Garstang Road and is a first solo venture for chef-patron Soji Joseph, who previously spent 13 years as head chef at The Walled Garden at Barton Grange. The venue has an upmarket feel with wooden floors and panelling and striking blue banquettes and is open all day from 10am-3pm and 5pm-10pm, Monday to Saturday. You can drop in for breakfast for all the family or lunch with a choice of nibbles, light bites or something more substantial with a good-value set menu served at lunch every day and early evening Monday to Thursday. The evening a la carte menu offers diners a good choice of vegetarian and vegan starters and mains as well as meat and fish options and steaks from the grill. And a good selection of cocktails and wines complement the accomplished cooking.

Having read favourable reviews about this restaurant, I was looking forward to eating here. There is no doubt about the quality of the food (we all had fish as it was Friday!): it was delicious and freshly cooked and the service was very good (attentive without being obsequious). However, we waited 40 minutes for our main course (we hadn't ordered starters so we were quite hungry by the time our meals arrived) with no explanation (I realise that food freshly cooked takes longer to prepare but 40 mins felt a bit too long) and the music was overly loud: some background music is fine but this was overly intrusive and rendered conversation difficult. Overall, it was a good experience and I would eat here again but turn the music down please!

First visit to the 'Ginger' last Saturday. Most impressed ! Food was superb ! I had a Fillet Steak, my wife the Goosnargh Chicken, I followed with my annual helping of Sticky Toffee Pudding while my wife opted for Eton Mess. All washed down with a very nice bottle of New Zealand Malborough. Not a crumb or a drop was left ! The staff were both friendly and efficient. The ambiance and the setting provided a relaxing atmosphere. Absolutely excellent dining experience ! The 'Ginger' is only a fifteen minute walk from our house and this establishment will undoubtedly enhance the 'eating out' options in the area. It will be a real asset. Would we return again ? Most certainly, time after time after time !

Very impressed on our first visit. Brilliant staff, varied menu at a reasonable price and a real 'buzz' to the place. Even though the restaurant was full, our meals and drinks were served promptly. The staff deserve a particular mention as they were very welcoming and nothing seemed to be too much trouble for them. Food was tasty, hot and reasonably priced. Will be returning again soon.

I dined at The Ginger Bistro with some colleagues as a party of 10 on Friday 5th July and couldn't have been more impressed! The Ginger Bistro is a fabulous place to visit and dine, couldn't fault the food, service or atmosphere, great staff and a lovely ambience within the restaurant. The prices for some of the main courses could be slightly less but overall, we left well and truly impressed!

We had a lovely evening celebrating our son’s 15th birthday with family and friends at The Ginger Bistro. Thank you to Soji, Simon and all the staff who made our evening go really well, nothing was too much trouble. The food was delicious...’the best linguine I’ve had. We’ll be coming back and would highly recommend.

Shown to a lovely table, very friendly staff. Unfortunately the wine I drink was only available by the bottle which was a shame so I had to choose something else. The starter took a little while to arrive but was cooked to perfection. My main was the buck breast special which was to my taste slightly over cooked but very tender and juicy. The sides were amazing and the jus was generous.of the meal was fantastic. Best of all the young lady who served us had a beautiful, friendly smile every time she came to our table. I would thoroughly recommend We didn't stay for dessert but the rest

Visited The Ginger Bistro about 4/5 times now with various people, sometimes for lunch, dinner or just dropped in for a catch-up-coffee. Each time I have been the service has been good and the food lovely last nigh was no different.
