Got this great tip from a friend. Go try Go-Mex…read more I really like Mexican food so was a great tip for me. Today was doing some shopping and the tip came to mind so off I went to give it a go. Very friendly service and willing to answer any questions you may have about the food. There is a large selection of dishes at really good prices. I bought the Gumbo and the Chilli Bowl dishes . You can eat there and then out of the trays but I took mine home so I could sit and enjoy them. So I have already eaten the Gumbo and yes it was really nice and tastey. and filling. You will have to wait for the update about the Chilli Bowl, but I just know it will be great too. So folks if you are on a visit to Chorley it's a must stop and eat. I will put the menu up in the photos as soon as I get to scan it. Everything £2.50 apart from Enchiladas £3.00 I will also keep updating as I try out the different items on the menu. http://twitter.com/#!/gomexchorley http://www.facebook.com/pages/Go-Mex/169498986489678

I have walked past this little stall at Chorley Market everyday for the past 2 years on my dinner…read moreand never thought to try it. How stupid am I?! I thought I'd treat myself today with it being Friday to something good and with the lack of other options I tried this place. I'm not usually one for little stalls as I think they're unhygienic; however this stall has a 5* hygiene rating so my worries were lifted! I got the big burrito which includes chorizo, chicken, mince meat and of course rice. All for £3.50 in a lightly heated wrap. The burrito had plenty of flavour and filled me up. Probably the best dinner I've had in the office all year! It smelt that good a colleague went and bought one too. Can't wait till next Friday now!!

We thought we should give Chiquito a try as we've not been here in a while due to long waiting…read moretimes but today was record breaking, no queues or waiting for tables.

Service was friendly but the waiter kept trying to upsell us cocktails when we were just drinking…read morePepsi. Our starter (platter) took so long to come out that the waiter came over to confirm we hadn't had it. Main course took a while too, and sadly was pretty bland and unimpressive. Nothing special, especially considering the money. We mentioned this at the end, and as a goodwill gesture we were given 2 of our 4 drinks for free. Didn't stay for dessert as we no longer expected it to be worth the extra wait. The actual restaurant is great though, love the decor and artwork. Probably won't return any time soon though.

Yes yes I know, another 4 star review from Matt *eye's roll* but truth be told, Erico's is another…read more4 star place! It's a really nice place and the food is good - I had Tagliatelle Della Casa which in their words is ribbon pasta cooked with chicken, ham and peas in tomato cream sauce - all I know is it was very tasty. If I'm being picky there could have been a higher chicken to pasta ratio but none the less a great dish. I came with my family for my brothers birthday and each enjoyed their dish; my dad had Linguine Con Gamberoni - prawns and scallops with linguine, my mum a Risotto and the little brother a pizza - everything spot on! In a decent spot for a date night, a family me as I did, or somewhere to grab a quick meal before a night out as there are several nice pubs nearby. It's not setting the world alight, but with an extensive menu, competitive prices and good quality food, Ericos is a solid bet.

Came here with bf's mother on Mother's Day and it was relatively quiet in the large and pleasant…read moreinterior although we were quite early. Service was attentive and efficient throughout. I didn't think the food was amazing and the large menu includes some random dishes e.g. Mexican that make it pretty obvious they are not trying to be an authentic trattoria etc. Nevertheless, the garlic bread with tomato was fine and although I didn't like the slight sour sauce on our prawns very much, they were at least good-sized ones. Overall though, that starter is not good value at over £7 for 4 prawns. For my main I got cannelloni which wasn't greatly above supermarket ready meal standard but you can't go too wrong with meat, melted cheese and tomato. My bf's mum had ravioli which was served on a massive plate covered in orange sauce - I thought it looked like it had way too much sauce and also the colour was weird. However, she ate it all so it can't have been that bad! Boyfriend's pizza looked ok but due to his hangover he didn't even get through half!

The old man loves this place and as we were both working from home one day, we thought we'd grab a…read morelittle treat for lunch. I don't live too far from The King William (King Bill as it's known) and it's really nice to have on your doorstep. Food is nice here and better than your average pub-grub, and it also has some decent ales on tap from a local micro brewery (I'll get the name next time). I had the Cajun Chicken Sandwich which was very well cooked and had a nice little kick to it. That was served with Chips, that were average, nothing to shout about but enough to fill the hole. My Dad had the Chilli Burger with Chips and by all accounts that was fantastic! I'd want to give the place a 5 star glowing reference, however with the lack of Wifi, in 2015, I can't give it full marks - give BT a call and get some wifi, then I'll review again!

Friday lunchtime and just fancied a break from working at home. So somewhere local required. Not…read moreeaten at The King Bill for a while so decided to visit. I was not disappointed. Staff are great, the location offers comfort indoors & an outside terrace if you prefer views over the nearby countryside. Good food and drink choice. I had half a Perroni and their chilli burger. Just enough heat in the quality meat burger and nice fat chips on the side. All served in good time so that I was back at work within the hour. Will be back soon I hope!

I thought it was about time I got back on to the Yelp horse…read more Anyway, I never had the pleasure of trying this place when it was located in the city center. As a a treat my better half decided to treat me to dinner..fancying Mexican food he suggested Chiquitos.. I was like nope ..lets try here.. I had not realised it relocation until he said it was round the corner from him.. Stepping in, the decor was spot on. Nicely spaced out tables, perfect lighting oh and doors on the ceiling.. The background music was epic for me, full of nostalgic hits from my youth ahh. Immediately we were greeted and seated by a kind waitress who was a little too keen taking our drink order but then returned after a few minutes. For those that don't drink there is a plentiful innovate mocktail menu amongst a good selection of beer, wine and cider etc. I chose a standard pino colada which was the perfect consistency and booze balance, Himself had a standard cup of tea which was served in bone china :) The menu itself is varied too, it ranges from Mexican, Thai to Brazilian. Knowing by now not to not have eyes bigger than my belly I settled on a Seafood Stew served with rice and beans. Himself selected the beef strip burrito. The quantity of seafood in mine was plentiful. It contained fresh tasting prawns, whitefish, green lipped mussels and squid. It was similar to a Thai soup but thicker and went well with the accompaniments. He was very pleased with his burrito, I was too full to try any of his . Finally we checked out the desserts, I was slightly let down as it lacked churros :( so we passed and enjoyed a liqueur coffee instead. Overall, the food was fresh and tasty and averagely priced. The service was very attentive with friendly staff asking at the right times if everything was okay. Oh and they had lolly pops on the way out...winner.. Would I be back? Yes certainly.

Came here at the last minute for a Saturday night meal and only just managed to get a table. We'd…read moreeaten at Croma recently, so it was interesting to compare with its next-door neighbour. I had the Hungry Gaucho which is basically a burger but that doesn't do it justice - the burger patty is topped with pulled pork, barbecue sauce, bacon and cheese and was astonishingly good. Served with fries which very nice if a little bit too salty for my taste and onion rings. Sparky went for the lamb tagine - not something we were expecting to see on the menu since someone had described the place to us as "steak and burgers". The tagine was great and the lamb practically melted in your mouth. It gets very busy here very fast, so book a table if you're coming. A little bit on the noisy side, and the drinks aren't cheap but the food is definitely worth it.

Very slow service. We ordered drinks and didn't get them until halfway through our meals. The mixed…read moredrinks were not good at all. The sushi was decent. Loud bar environment

This is a strange king of place, there was nothing wrong with it per se, I just didn't love it…read more We rocked up here for a late lunch having spent the morning exploring the museums and galleries in Salford Quays. We decided to sit outside as the sun was shining and pushed a couple of tables together to seat all six of us. Unfortunately, there were dirty plates and glasses left on the table and we eventually had to ask for these to be removed as none of the staff seemed keen to do this. You order your food at the bar. The inside of Lime is a massive void of a place decorated in brass with illuminous lighting. Not particularly pleasing to the eye and certainly more suited to the evening crowd. The menu is quite eclectic and has something to suit pretty much everyone. I went for the homemade burger. The food came pretty quickly. The burger was ok, the meat was decent but under seasoned and unfortunately the garnish made the bun soggy and it disintegrated in my hands before I got to the end. The chips were chunky but a little soggy and sadly there was approximately six of them - I have a hangover, I need more carbs! Other dishes including the club sandwich, sea bass and steak sandwich were well received but the noodles were missing from the oriental platter. However, this was quickly resolved by the wait staff. Overall, Lime is probably a better option than the standard chain restaurants that otherwise fill Salford Quays, it just seems to lack a certain je ne sais quoi.

Magical? Chemical?…read more The alchemist is not only a nice surrounding to sit in but the service and food are great and delicious. When we checked in and were asked if there were any allergies we made jokes about my husband's allergy to cinnamon - that we would not need to worry about out it before desert. We ordered a few items from the menu - which is a very delicious mix of classics with some twists (tempura fried fish and chips for example). Order was taken and a couple minutes later the manager came and said "I am sorry - but the sauce to the fish contains a bit of cinnamon" wow! We change the order of course and the manager came back to the table asking if we would be worried about cross termination. We have been not and everything went well after that. Great service. The food itself plays with the alchemist theme for example the chorizo meatballs come with a syringe to inject your own amount of cheese (what you think? Yes of course o injected the whole Syringe into the little delicious meatball duhh). The menu consist of a lot of small items which makes me so happy since I can have so many bites of different things and at the alchemist they are all worth it! And of course classics like burger, salads and sandwiches alongside their mains. The menu is not too big but literally has something for everyone. You have to try the crispy pork skins! After we had been told that the crispy fish contains cinnamon my husband learned they offer their "chicken in a basket" as a vegetarian version as well and that is what he got. Damn that is so good: A bed of chips (fries for our American friends) are surrounded by one of the best coleslaw I had in a long time (almost as good as Guy Fieri's if not even better) then slightly pan seared onions and peppers layer on top of the fries. Ready to be mixed in. Then of course a generous amount of chicken or in this case plant based chicken smothered in a sweet chili sauce. Not to forgot to mention that it came with an extra little bowl of dipping sauce. Delicious! We also had a mocktail which name I might not be allowed to recite here let's named it "virgin adult film star" what a perfect combination of fruit, creme and sweetness. Yummmmmm To end the night I had coffee and Choclate - any serving of coffee comes with a set of three pralines. What a way to end the night at the alchemist. Great atmosphere perfect service and delicious food and drinks.
