    Really disappointing no mains available from the menu not told on entry and only told after ordering. Really poor service, person we dealt with not very attentive and poor communication between staff from the outset.

    No main meals available which we weren't told about until after we had ordered and received drinks and were trying to order food. If we had known earlier we might have gone elsewhere. Plus on blue light site says you can use your bluelight card for discount but staff and manager said no you can't.

    A get together with fellow retirees to celebrate two birthdays. Good food. We all had quesasdillas but with different fillings accompanied by wine &/or beer &/or soft drinks & followed by coffee. A very enjoyable meal. Was surprised by the number of customers. It was quiet but it was a Monday lunchtime .

    Despite it being a busy New Year’s Eve, the staff were fantastic and the food was delicious - one of the best places for food and drinks in Bolton.
