I asked a lady who dines out three times a week in Lancaster to choose a restaurant for our first…read moremeet-up. The Sun Café Restaurant was her choice, and this place is currently also ranked 3rd on Tripadvisor for restaurants in Lancaster. Although I hadn't said it in so many words, my wish was for a venue special enough to make her feel like a princess but still relaxed enough for us to get to know each other. The Sun Café Restaurant was the perfect venue. From a quick walk around in the rain, Lancaster looks to be a pretty little town with some narrow cobbled backstreet that reminded me of Edinburgh. The Sun is situated on one of these backstreet. The décor and ambience of speak of relaxed quality and of The Sun having put roots down a while ago. From the website, The Sun looks to be run by a very hands on chef-patron. From the outside, I found it very inviting, especially the detailing on the custom wrought metal. Inside, it is definitely a smart restaurant and I am guessing that the 'Café' in the name refers either to an earlier incarnation of this place or else serves to alert potential customers that The Sun also offers breakfast, lunch and coffee much more informally. Our evening played out beautifully - from 6.30pm, we enjoyed the peace of the place to ourselves for the first hour and after that it was just nicely busy for a weekday evening. With the food, I have to admit to not have been that hungry and also absorbed in my highly charismatic companion! We were both impressed by the presentation of her main which was pancake parcels filled with spinach and cheese, the parcels being bags tied at the neck with a chive or similar! I had a starter with a fancy name that was basically a small portion of ratatouille surrounded with a sweet and sour sauce based on pureed butternut squash. As sustenance, mine would have left something to be desired, but in terms of giving this keen cook taste sensations and a velvety texture that I couldn't imagine coming up with at home, I was pleased. My companion had some indulgent chocolate brownie dessert which seemed to hit the spot. The white wine was also pronounced satisfactory. Service was really good - our elegant blonde waitress made us feel at home but special. Rounding up with a tip, the bill came to £35 for one vegetarian main, one starter, one pudding and two glasses of wine. All in, The Sun is a great venue. Although not cheap, I felt our meal was really 'grandstanding' it for a special occasion, without breaking the bank. My companion tells me mains here are reasonably sized, although starters apparently can be on the small side. But whereas I might even grudge the cost of a Pizza Express meal, I didn't feel that at all here. If you live locally, the breakfast and lunch menus are totally different and priced much lower, so that is something The Sun can do for you on a budget! My home patch for dining out right now is Manchester. I've only tried a couple of Modern British/European restaurants that would compare to The Sun (Thomas in the Northern Quarter, Bistro West 156 in Didsbury, but for an all-round dining experience and imaginative vegetarian options, The Sun is definitely better IMO.

They were happy to reserve space for us and despite our group being pretty loud and even a little rowdy at times, the staff was all smiles and joking right alongside us. The owner, a delightfully smiley frenchman, came upstairs to personally serve some of the dishes. Each of us had ordered something different, plus a starter and a dessert, and there wasn't a single complaint out of anyone. They even brought us some party crackers, haha! I am pretty new in town but I hear from a lot of people that the brunch here is great and that the lunch specials are a good way to try out the menu without going broke. Saying that, I think the prices were really reasonable when we were there and I'd go back in a minute.

I'd heard good things about the breakfasts here and thought I'd switch up from my usual Saturday morning cafe and give it a whirl. I had the full breakfast, which gives you an ample serving of bacon, sausage, egg, mushroom, beans and toast. Washed down with a Cappuccino and for a smidgen over £6 - win. The manager who was serving us was fantastic as well, a real character that made a big effort to come and chat with us on a few occasions. To give minus points, the decor is a little dated and I've had better quality breakfast's, but still a great local cafe!

The lady who runs the cafe is always very pleasant & will go out of her way to come & say hello to you. I tend to go for the standard bacon, sausage & egg barm (Boltonian for muffin, cob, bread roll blah blah blah) & the portion size & the quality of food is excellent. I would advise getting there as early as you can as when it hits 10am its difficult to get a table. The only slight criticism i have is that they charge an extra £1.50 per sandwich for eating in which seems a little steep but with the service & quality, i'll let them off the hook.

Ladies that Lunch! This weekend we 3 Ladies (no laughing)…read morewent for a drive into Lancashire and stumbled across the village of Whalley. Whilst browsing the shops and buying random things we don't really need we found a Deli called Benedicts. It had a great selection of local produce;chutneys, pork pies, artisan breads etc and attached to the Deli was its own restaurant. Impressed with the selection of produce and surroundings we opted to eat there. After only a few minutes a table was available for us and sat down to peruse the menu. To start we ordered Antipasti to share and for mains we ordered Seafood Linguini, Chicken Skewers with Stir Fry and Home Made Fish Pie. After 20 minutes our drinks arrived and after waiting an hour and asking where our food was our Antipasti arrived! It was lovely but waiting an hour for something so simple didn't fill me with joy. Both the Linguini and Fish Pie were good and sizeable portions but the Chicken (I think it was chicken anyway) was terrible. The stir fry whick consisted of 2 leaves of bok choy on someting beige, was overcooked and 3 tiny skewers of meat. When you've waited well over an hour at this point, it just isn't good enough and we were hungry! My main issue with this restaurant is the service. Its REALLY poor and very disorganised. There were plenty of staff but nobody knew what was going on, tables weren't cleared and the they don't know the meaning of attentive. I don't want someone constantly asking if everything is ok, but just once would have been acceptable. I felt like I lost half of my weekend just on a lunch! Like I said, food (apart from Chicken Skewers with Stir Fry) was good. Just don't pop in and think you'll be able to have a quick lunch!!

Came here with my boyfriend for anniversary brunch (well breakfast technically because they only do…read morebrunch on a Sunday) and had the vegetarian breakfast plate. This consisted of eggs (I chose poached), vegetarian black pudding, beans, toast, hash browns and grilled tomatoes. I opted to swap the mushrooms (ugh) for spinach. It was good overall. One of my eggs wasn't runny which was a shame and the whole breakfast was lukewarm, but the black pudding was really tasty. It had pearl barley in it and really did taste similar for real black pudding which was clever. My boyfriend thought they were a bit stingy on the beans. I had a spiced chai latte with almond milk (nice but not hot enough) and my boyfriend had a luxury hot chocolate which came with cream and a flake (he could have had marshmallows too). The place has a great ambience and feels very chilled out. The service is excellent and it has a really cute deli and shop attached to it. Definitely worth a visit as there are not many great places for brunch in the Ribble Valley.

When someone isn't happy with the coffee they've just sent out (which tasted great by the way) And spends time fixing it until they feel it's right. And then gives you more coffee! FREE. That's perfection and that is customer service. This is a lovely quaint station house attached to Prescot train station. We only went downstairs which was lovely and cozy and has a toilet. Just as well after two large cups of coffee. The rustic vibe is perfect and the menu looked really good. I could even select vegan options. More of that on my next visit. The staff are lovely polite and engaging. You feel more like part of the family than a customer. Tune in on my next visit. I will venture upstairs and add more photos then. And also try something from the menu. Thanks to the staff for being very professional. And thanks for the perfect coffee.

They served up a fantastic matcha latte, and Liz got a cappuccino. I thought this place was a fine place to eat breakfast, or if we wanted to get a coffee or tea to go. Liz and 'Em had pancakes... although it looked like smaller portions they were filled quickly. I had a morning brekkie with meat, which came with toast, bacon, a small tub of beans, roasted tomato and spinach, and toasted eggs. It was all pretty delicious. The server offered sauces (hot sauce or ketchup). I was pretty content with the food. All types of folks come in and all are treated the same.

They have a nice variety of teas too, and daily cakes which are made on the premises, from cheesecake to huge delicious scones, it's the sort of place you could pop in for a big breakfast, or a slice of cake and a coffee. The parking is street parking. But it's within walking distance of various parking areas, due to being in the centre of Horwich. On this particular visit, I had 2 slices of "doorstop toast" and a pot of tea, Phil R had sausage on toast (local butchers sausage) and a bottle of Fentimans Dandelion and Burdock. He then succumbed to a slice if fresh home made sticky ginger cake, warmed, with cream. I might've tried a bite. I did. It was lovely. The whole lot came to under £9 :)

We stayed at the De Vere Hotel, and although it is walking distance from the hotel, it made us work up an appetite. I'm glad we came! Sarah Janes did not dissapoint!!! We ordered a pot of tea to share. The pot came with a crocheted pot holder with a sunflower on top. So cute!!! A pot gave us about 4-5 cups of tea. We both decided to order the 8 items off the breakfast menu (until 2pm), which consisted of a hash brown, egg, sausage, bacon, beans, black pudding, mushrooms, and tomatoes. You can also choose to order 5 of the 8 items instead, but we wanted a Full English breakfast. We got there a little after 2pm but because the grill was still on, they were nice enough to allow us to order breakfast. Everything was delicious and made just right!!! All the flavors blended together did not overwhelm the dish either. The hash brown was one of the best I've ever eaten. The black pudding was somewhat crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I've had black pudding before that was overcooked than it should have been and was hard inside and out so this was different. We wanted to try the sticky ginger cake and scones but were so full at the end, we could not!!! We did come back at the end of our trip to try the cake and scones, as well as to have another Full English breakfast of course!! The Full English breakfast was consistent and still one of the best I've had!!! They warmed our sticky ginger cake, which made it warm and moist but possibly less sticky. No problem there!!! Every bit still delicious and flavorful!! Just the perfect amount of spice! We loved it!!! However, this piece of cake does get sickening the more you eat. The scone was huge! Sliced in the middle with cream and jam, it is a sure win next to my favorite at the Rivington Barn (though to be honest, I've not eaten many scones). I would definitely come back whenever I'm in Horwich!!! It is not expensive either, which is a plus!! Both times, it costs less than £17.
