OOh! I'm the first! I'm the first!! *waves arms around in a Kermit-style YAAAAAY!*…read more The Victorian Fair is always a great day out in Otley and we took this as an opportunity (because we literally need no excuses) to go and check out this latest incarnation of North Bar right in the centre of the town. Having during the course of the afternoon made friends with a German, a Mexican and a French lady at Whitacker's (there's a joke in there somewhere) we decided North Bar Social would be a great place to show our new compadres some of the best drinking Yorkshire can offer. We were a highly enthusiastic, multi-lingual and already rather toasted crew of newly found drinking buddies and the homely atmosphere in North Bar Social suited us to a tee. Our Bavarian even managed to find a beer from his home town and enthusiastically made us drink it...it tasted of smoked ham. Like drinking smoked ham. It was awful. But at least it made him laugh to watch us. I suspect he had planned this all along. The lighting upstairs was a little bright and the wooden seats could have done with some cushions but these are mere environmental trifles that any new bar can sort out as feedback pours in. North Bar Social was a great way to while away a Saturday night with their vast and dazzling array of drinks, absolutely superb bar man whose service and smile were impeccable and perfect ambience entirely suited to making new friends. Well done North Bar Social.

From the owner: North Bar Social boasts a large outdoor seating area, cosy upstairs function room, and some of the…read morefriendliest staff we know!  Our small, but perfectly formed, bar welcomes cyclists, dogs, walkers and has regulars from 18 to 80! Table service, a wide range of beers and wine, and a strong connection with the local community have brought a little piece of North Bar to Otley.

I'd seen some terrible reviews of La Casita online but if being a person who writes online…read morerestaurant reviews teaches you anything, it's when other ones are not totally legit. So I ignored them and went anyway and I'm glad I did because it was a really delicious, good value meal with great friendly service. Rich and I shared the choriqueso and the guacamole bowl to start. The choriqueso as you may be able to guess is a ton of chorizo with a ton of melted cheese. Of course this was bloody delicious. The guacamole was good too, I'm not sure what was achieved by it being in a tortilla bowl but it definite didn't detract from anything. For mains I had tacos el pastor and Rich had fajitas with chicken and chorizo. The tacos were great - no weird hard shells here - and the filling very tasty. If I had any complaints here it would be that the meat had a slightly 'chalky' aftertaste, so possibly I'd try another taco filling on another visit. The hot sauce that comes with the tacos is pretty bloody hot, believe them when they say that. Rich's only complaint was that the fajitas came with a large amount of filling and only two small tortillas. To drink I had a bottle of Sol and a very good, very strong margarita. Rich had a pint of lager and a rum and coke. For two starters, two mains and four drinks we paid around £50 which I thought was pretty good. I'll definitely be back! I just hope it sticks around as businesses seem to come and go in this location (so go support them!).

Worth a visit just for the Chimichangas! I ordered these as a starter and they were 3 small-ish…read moredeep fried pulled pork burritos, and were absolutely delicious! A layer of lettuce sat on top with cream served with pico de gallo (Fresh Mexican salsa), and a spicy dipping sauce. The pulled pork was juicy and full of flavour, the outside was nice and crispy, and the spicy sauce was the perfect addition. I made a major foodie error, and ordered the Cochinita Pibil burrito for my main, which is basically an upsacle non-fried version of the Chimichangas - in my defence: PULLED PORK! The Cochinita Pibil was slow cooked pulled-pork marinated in oranges, lime and traditional Mayan flavouring, and was spot on! I HAVE NO REGRETS The restaurant is a quaint little place at the Chorlton end of Barlow Moor Road, with a large open window and terrace, which is great on a warm Summers' night like on the night I visited. The inside is filled with Mexican style décor, like an awesome painting depicted Cinco de Mayo celebrations. The price was very reasonable and service was great, friendly and attentive, and I will definitely return to sample the guacamole, and bigger variety of their dishes.

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!!

The food was great the new Owner of IN Beach was there eating with his wife, Skyler took care of us…read moreand was awesome.

There was nothing here that I thought was really tasty, but nothing terrible either…read more Service was slightly odd, our server took about 30 mins to bring food menus and did not understand me asking about recommendations for frozen margarita. We weren't offered a second round of drinks until after we'd finished our food, and only got water with the bill. Weirdly at this point the server became super friendly - maybe she'd received some good news halfway through our meal, or was happy we were the last customers! Food-wise the cheese fondue and nachos with everything selection I don't think wowed anyone but were nice enough. My tacos were all fine although completely disintegrated once I added sauces. The carne asada was definitely more like braised meat than steak, but still tasted fine. The shrimp was again fine but unremarkable. Overall the taste couldn't compare to the fish tacos over at Fusion Lab. My taco dorado had the nicest filling (guacamole, chorizo) but it wasn't the best deep-fried taste - not sure whether that's just my preference or something about the oil but would give them the benefit of the doubt. The huitaloche enchilada wasn't that exciting in the end - basically a sort of mushroom flavour, I wouldn't go for it unless you lurve mushrooms. I think Yayo is right this would be good as a late night place for some snacks after drinking, however it seems to close by 11 even on Saturday so they might be missing a trick there. Overall I wouldn't say no to going back but nor would I suggest it.
