Great place for a Birthday dinner! We visited at the weekend for a Birthday dinner. The restaurant was mostly people visiting for Birthday celebrations and it was very busy, so please make sure you book in advance to avoid disappointment! All of the starters we had were delicious and the pasta I had was amazing! I absolutely recommend the pasta - I've never had a pasta that good before! The staff were all really good and very helpful with menu choices. Definitely worth a visit!

The first time I went we were a party of six and everything was amazing I couldn’t fault anything the food the service the wait time it was all perfect although the second time I went the waiter was very dismissive he didn’t right our order down and due to allergies I’m unable to have garlic and onion he seemed to be confused at our order but went away anyway then when the food arrived there was quite a few things wrong with it but then we got another waiter and they were amazing super understanding and really apologetic. Overall I really enjoyed my visit to this restaurant and would absolutely go again.

We were a tabke of 9 for a birthday. The staff were awesome. Very welcoming, very jovial and took care of us well. The food was phenomonal. I always have my steak blue but its rare that its ever served that way when i eat out. At Il Vecchio it was perfect. The chef really knows what he is doing. Additionally, for the great service and the amazing food, the price was very reasonable. 10/10. Would recommend everyone eats here

What can I say. Amazing and more. We have celebrated many a night here. My children have grown up with this restaurant always being their choice for family get togetherness. I love it here. Great care and attention to detail whether it be a sit down family meal of 6 or an impromptu stop off for a take out. The staff are amazing each and every one of them play a special part in our nights out. I refuse to go anywhere else for my fix of Italian food. FYI the Tiramisu is to DIE for !!!!

Basement Diner

A great addition to Heywood. Halal, family friendly diner with great food. Their grilled chicken was on point and huge. Their burgers were scrumptious and if you have space don't forget to try their desserts. The biscoff milkshake was so creamy and thicc.

Upon arrival I thought that the setup, design & decor was stunning, very well thought out and made good use of the space. Secondly, the service was second to none, big smiles and excellent customer service. Took our order then seated us at a booth. Thirdly, the food was AMAZING. I ordered the chicken wings, 1/4 Chicken & chips & school cake. The chicken wings and 1/4 chicken was full of flavour, juicy and tender. I have 0 complaints on the food as it was bursting with flavour. The desert took me on a trip down memory lane, which is always good. Overall, top lads, delicious food & amazing atmosphere. I highly highly recommend to food lovers in and around heywood or even further, well worth the travel ( I came from Ramsbottom on a recommendation from a friend). Would rate 10/10 if I could.

I had been there in the 80s with my brothers and cousin. Never thought I would be able to revisit. Great atmosphere, food and service. It's a bit out of the way for someone staying in Manchester, but if you find yourself in Bury on the Rochdale Rd, turn left onto Birtle Rd. You won't be disappointed.

First time visiting here booked a table for my mother in laws birthday when we arrived they had put a nice message on a board saying happy birthday which was nice. The staff were all friendly and kind food was incredible we had starters spinach and potato soup main course the beef Sunday dinner and for dessert chocolate brownie. Prices for food were good and you get a lot. Definitely be going again. The pub itself is so nice very clean parking outside nice views going to be visiting here again in summer so we can sit outside.

A welcoming fire was ablaze when we walked in, lighting was ambient and we were greeted by Emma who asked us to get a drink at the bar whilst we waited for our table to become vacant. No more than 10-15 minutes later and we were at our table, looking through the menu. We were brought here today by my sister and brother in law who are locals and it was sensational. We shared the Sunday roast sharer (which has bottomless Yorkshire puds and gravy) and our wives had the vegetarian wellington. Food was fantastic, really tasty veggies, cauliflower cheese and meat. Service was even better with us having at least 3 check backs to see if we wanted any more drinks, Yorkshire puddings or gravy. As an old employee of hospitality, I really do appreciate when people provide a great service and this was definitely a place with that. Emma and Tina really made us feel at home and we couldn’t have been happier with their service. Thank you so much for a great experience. Will definitely be visiting when we’re in the area again.

Ate here for the first time the other night with my mum and disabled sister. The staff there were really welcoming and friendly. The service was amazing and so was the food! Plenty of room of wheelchairs and pushchairs. The tandoori mix 2 was absolutely delicious! Will definitely be visiting again. :)

Picked up a take away from here and the food was amazing! Staff were so nice and friendly and helped me out to my car with the food as there was quite a lot. The inside of the restaurant looked so nice, I will definitely be returning for a sit in meal. Really good veggie options too, highly recommend

Visited today for the first time and was very happy! All staff was welcoming and friendly. We had the Sunday banquet which was good value and food was great too. Everywhere was clean and tidy, the highchair provided for the baby was the cleanest high chair I have ever seen in any restaurant! They was super helpful and nothing was a problem. Would definitely recommend for people with children and families!

Doing the East Lancs railway and came across this Loved this little independent tea room. Had a great capachino, I love a hot capachino and this was hot. My wife had a scone and I asked them to warm it for15 secs which they did and then brought out a nice lot of butter and tons of cream, we don't do jam but was asked. It was so reasonable that I made the difference up in a tip to what I would have paid in a Costa/Starbucks a few pounds difference . Well worth a visit for a brew :) p. s they had a great looking food menu at extremely good prices if I get the opportunity I'm going back :)

The atmosphere is cozy, and the service is friendly. A perfect spot for anyone craving quality Italian food in Rochdale. Highly recommended!

I ordered pasta and it was very nice. My husband had the chicken burger from the kid’s menu cause he wasn’t that hungry and he didn’t expect it would come in a big portion. Also, it was the best chicken burger he has ever had in Rochdale. I took a bite and I agreed. It was very well seasoned. Very decent price as well.
