The decor is fantastic, relaxing, and quaint, but more importantly, the food is superb. Everything we tried, from the milkshakes to the desserts, were absolutely finger-licking good. The quality was simply superb. This place is worth going out of one's way to visit. If you're looking for a fantastic lunch, it's where it's at. One note, the place tends to be busy, so it can be a bit of a wait for the food or for the staff, but the food is worth the wait.

I am a big fan of Portugal, the culture, the food and the people so when I stumbled across Cafe…read moreLuso I was delighted! Hidden amongst takeaways in Farnworth, you wouldn't be blamed for completely ignoring this little cafe. The lady serving was so friendly and service was so quick! I ordered a peach iced tea and pork steak sandwich. The pork was so tasty, it was served in a ciabatta roll which soaked up all the delicious marinade and only cost £3.95. All of the drinks were imported from Portugal, they even had Super Bock for £1.75 a bottle. I felt like I was back in Portugal, even the TV was in Portuguese. They had traditional Portuguese pastries including Bola de Arroz which are amazing rice cakes. If you happen to be in the area then this place is a must try!

Its a lovely farm setting with the barn serving food and beverages indoors in the lavender decorated tearoom or outside in the courtyard and gardens.

This place has a really relaxed feel and there were dogs lazing around and waiting to catch any nibbles. The menu included Freshly made Sandwiches. Soup and Desserts.

The restaurant features freshly made dishes made with homegrown seasonal produce. While visiting our family in Liverpool, we came here as a group for afternoon tea. My mother-in-law and sister-in-law had been here before, so they knew it was great and brought us back, along with my husband's grandparents. Do take note, you have to book your table in advance. We sat in one of the backrooms which was very cozy and inviting, albeit a bit noisy from a rowdy group of "ladies who lunch," but it was fine once they left. We all really appreciated that savory items were included in the the afternoon tea. The menu features a selection of sandwiches, savouries, a cup of soup, a bucket of chips, a selection of cakes and a mini trifle. Plus your choice of a pot of tea or cup of filter coffee. I was happily surprised at the wide variety of teas! There was ample to eat. My husband and I ate our entire afternoon tea, but everyone else in our group had a few sweet treats left to take home. The food was very delicious. I loved the little quiche best along with the soup served in a cute tea cup and saucer! Plus, the little basket of chips was a nice touch! Scrumptious! Also, it's just 14 pounds for Afternoon Tea which I think it a great value for such a delicious savory tea. Afterwards, my family browsed the farm store and boutique which featured a lot of cute country style home goods and seasonal produce and artisanal food items. Do go upstairs to poke around at their merchandise. It's cute. I really enjoyed this afternoon tea and I'd love to return next time we're back to visit my husband's family!

I pass by Dolce at least once a day and it is normally always busy - lunchtimes being the peak, and at that time you may have a slight wait for a table, but the positive side of that is that Dolce is located inside a home furnishings store, Global Interiors, which means you can go look around the store until you're ready to sit! Once seated you're in a for a treat - they have a lovely, albeit not huge, menu serving up some great Italian inspired dishes. I've always opted for the pizza here but my parents both had different pasta dishes and really enjoyed them. There is a really relaxed and enjoyable vibe in here and the waiting staff are great, especially the front of house - a energetic, friendly Italian man who adds to the charm of the place!

Ideally situated for a pre cinema meal. A wide selection of food on the menu but can recommend the pizzas which have a lovely thin base.

I fancied lunch one day, but wasn't sure where to go, so when instead of looking on Yelp, I looked…read moreon TripAdvisor, the most popular rated place in Bolton right now is The Bank, which surprised me as I actually hadn't heard of it at this point! So along I toddled, parked up nearby, and found the place which at first glance just looks like a "café", but trust me, it's really not, it's a fab restaurant which I never knew about, right on my doorstep here in Bolton! We were warmly greeted by the owner, who tell us about the history of the place (it was actually a bank!), the potential plans and decoration ideas, and how the venue is still a work in concept, with a bright future. It's always nice to meet someone passionate about their business, and giving good customer service. The venue itself is in simple monochromatic colours with clean lines and modern artwork, but with a traditional chandelier in the centre, which contrasts nicely. We ordered a classic cheeseburger and a gammon dinner. Both were cooked freshly to order, which is always a nice thing to experience in this day and age. The burger was juicy, in a glazed brioche bun, and the gammon was, to quote Phil R, "the best gammon I've ever had!" (I'll agree, it melted in the mouth!), with perfect eggs... but for me the best was the chips! Gigantic triple-cooked crispy crunchy batons of loveliness! Some of the best chips I've had, with a real crunch to them, unlike some places that claim to triple-cook chips! I'd go here again just for the chips, quite honestly! After an enjoyable and filling main course, we decided to take a breather so that we could order dessert! It seemed like a shame to skip dessert after such an enjoyable meal! After mulling over the dessert menu, Phil R went for the home made apple pie with custard, whilst I opted for the more intriguing "love in a cup". The desserts were mixed. Phil R said that the apple pie was more puree and poor pastry, but it had good custard. The 'Love in a Cup' turned out to be a very very chocolatey cake in a teacup, with fresh cream on top, very tasty, and perfect for the chocoholics out there! I even experimented by pouring some of the custard onto it to mellow it out a little, and that worked just as well! My partner and I decided it should be renamed, the "Oh My God That's Chocolatey!". Overall, The Bank is offering superb food for extremely reasonable prices. I'll be there again, and recommend you give it a go sometime if you fancy somewhere where simple food is done very well indeed!

On a rainy Saturday, after doing a bit of shopping, myself and my girlfriend wanted to go out for…read morelunch, but we fancied something a little different. We searched online and came back with the Bank on Bury Road heading into Bolton. We had a look at the menu and it sounded great so we decided to head there. As we drove up to the address, I thought I must have had it wrong as it looked like a row of houses, however, the quaint little bistro is located on the end of the terrace. You could easily miss it, or never know it's there, but for those who seek this treasure trove it is there to be found. We walked into the restaurant to find a room modern and fresh, no bigger than some living rooms. The manager was delightfully pleasant, seating us and serving us quickly and making sure we were looked after. I decided on the Overdraft burger (love all the punny menu item names) and my girlfriend had the rump steak. The burger was firstly, excellent and secondly, huge. I'm a big burger fan, and this was no let down. For such a reasonably priced burger in a fairly unknown place, this really was good. The patties were juicy and well seasoned, the bread fresh, chicken was tender and the chips are excellent, crisp, fluffy and very tasty! I tried the rump steak and it was so good, cooked to perfection, silky and juicy. I would definitely recommend this little gem to anyone, it's a lovely place with an attentive owner who is clearly passionate and loves what she does. The food is reasonably priced and really good. We will definitely be returning in the near future. Especially on weekend evenings when the manager told us they have acoustic performers throughout the night. Another little treat that the Bank has in the vault!
