1st time visit, but hopefully not the last. Lovely atmosphere in the pub, and the food couldn't be faulted, we enjoyed the Sunday roast both for quality, size and price. 0nly negative (and not a major one,) was that the pub is cash only. There is an ATM over the road.

Me and my wife are in the royal. We have ordered two separate meals. Both arrived at the same time. The food in both meals are cooked to perfection all home cooked. And fresh. Highly recommend.

My first time eating here, food was excellent, homemade (definitely was) steak pie delicious, lots of home cooked chips, best pub chips I have had, peas and carrots. Portion size very generous, didn't have room for dessert. Lovely meal, a gem of a pub, will definitely be back for more and won't hesitate to recommend 😀

“This is a lovely place, The staff are all friendly and will go out of their way to do anything for you. Food here is amazing, from the breakfasts to the home made cakes. It can sometimes be hard to find a place to sit but that just goes to show how good they are. Foods cooked to perfection and are vegan and vegetarian friendly. We call in after a walk and get a cold drink and a slice of cake. They have several different options like Carrot cake, lemon drizzle, victoria sponge and chocolate cake. They have other options every now and then but all are very good.”

“Being honest I preferred the interior before but that's just my opinion and it's there buissness .. most chairs are uncomfortable they lost the electronic beer monitor which was handy when it was busy and the music needs to be thought out a bit it's not a rock club ( iron maiden ? ) just seemed a little more inviting and made you want to stay longer before ..on the plus side great beer kept beautifully nice beer garden in the good weather and the staff are great and very chatty / freindly ..dog freindly as well our dalmatian loves it here ..a must visit on a night out in Atherton ..”

“Really good food! Recommended by my family in the area, I really enjoyed the food here. Been to a few places locally in Bolton and this is my new fav! Dishes all have distinctive flavours and the service is also good. It's not the cheapest place to eat in Bolton and unfortunately some of the portion sizes could be better (especially the starters). Size and price aside, the food is really nice and well worth a visit!”

“Great eatery, and that’s just the start for this little bistro/lounge - a must visit for locals and visitors. Started with a few plates, all of which were fantastic - ranging from the garlic mushrooms, to the DIVINE honey-coated chorizo. The staff were brilliant - quick to serve, and willing to provide suggestions where asked. The drinks menu is just varied enough to cover all bases - and the cocktails are out generous and well made. Once the meal was done, we stuck around for a couple of drinks and it’s then the secret lounge bar emerged. Wonderful atmosphere, great playlist and DJ, and the bar staff barely skipped a beat all night. I can absolutely recommend this place a and will certainly coming back in the near future.”
