Luckily for us, we live 5 mins walk away from The Tramway so have ample opportunity to sample the…read moredelights of the carvery! The quality of the food has always been consistently high - as a fussy meat-eater, it always suprises me how much I enjoy the beef and turkey as I have been to expensive restaurants and eaten worse-cooked more gristly meat. The selction of vegetables is brilliant - not too wide that you feel overfaced but more than enough to suit the tastes of adults and children alike. Caulifolwer cheese, roast potatoes, boiled potatoes, peas, green beans, carrots, sweetcorn and an absolutely delicious thick rich gravy which you ladle out yourself - so feel free to drown the stuffing balls and yorkshire pudding in it! What drives the price of your meal up is obviously the amount of drinks you have. Drinks are priced at normal pub prices and, although the bar staff are not the most efficient or well-organised, it does not detract from the value of the place. Downsides to the Tramway are the peculiar, split-level layout which is not great for anyone with mobility problems. Certain areas are well lit and tables by the (smallish) windows are bright - but there are equally areas of darkness which are a problem for members of my family with visual impairments. The music blasted over the speakers can, occasionally be overly loud - especailly if you are sat near the speakers, but a quick word with management usually sorts this out! I've never been tempted to try food off the menu - although we have had some of the desserts which were standard pub fare and neither exceptional nor bad. All in all, for a cheap meal in a very relaxed atmosphere, you cannot beat the Tramway carvery. Fantastic for families

My partner and I have visited this restaurant every two weeks for the last 12 months, we like…read moreCleveleys and have tried other restaurants in the area, only to be left disappointed by most. I personally wasn't over-struck with the place on my first visit, it was my first taste of a carvery anyway, I found the restaurant a little dark and I could hear two of the bar staff moaning about another member of staff, but in general I was satisfied with the food and the price was very very reasonable. The more we visited, the more we liked the Tramway, I find the bar staff friendly and helpful and the carvery-servers are pleasant too, okay they sometimes look a little messy, but they are cutting meat up and bringing vegetables and gravy out all day. If we have needed anything, then we have politely asked the staff and they are happy to help. We have never had to wait long to be served, I think the longest amount of time we have waited was maybe 5/6 minutes, which isn't bad. I have just read previous reviews and find it quite amusing how people can still complain when carveries are one of the cheapest meals in the current situation Some people are never happy though.

We were visiting overnight and just wanted a comfy place to stay - the rooms looked really nice on the website, so we booked here for the bargain price of £85 overnight for their most flash room (executive with bath). After a bit of a challenge finding where to park the car (the car park is diagonally opposite the hotel on the other corner of the street), we checked in which was easy and hassle free. We booked a table for dinner as we didn't really know of other options in Barrow and went to check out our room. There's a very slow elevator, or you can take the stairs. The hotel is spread over three floors and while you might initially think it seems a little cosy and close to the road, I didn't have any trouble sleeping and found it pretty quiet actually. Our room was pretty large, with an entrance foyer with open wardrobe, large bathroom with freestanding bath and a large bedroom area with couches. Everything was clean, fresh and well-presented and the bed was really comfy (although the pillows were a little hard). I wasn't expecting much for dinner, I'll be honest. But we were really impressed with the food - it was better than standard pub grub. We ate in the dining room, I believe you can also eat in the vaults downstairs while watching the football if you're so inclined. We shared smoked salmon with blue cheese fritters for a starter. This was a little weird, I'll be honest. I actually don't know what the fritters were made of, it was a bit like a blue cheese pancake. The salmon was delicious. Even though I found it weird, I still loved it so that's a bonus I guess! For main I had the 8oz prime sirloin steak, served with onion rings, chunky chips and a grilled tomato and mushroom, and I added mushroom sauce to it. This steak was really good, perfectly cooked and really well seasoned. I couldn't fault it. I struggled to finish all of this as there was a generous portion of the sides but I really enjoyed it all. We decided not to have dessert as I was well and truly stuffed. Service throughout the meal was good and while we were in a separate room tucked away from the bar, there was always someone on hand for more drinks if needed. Breakfast the next morning was pretty standard and they dealt with my request to change a few things really well, giving me extra hash browns instead of beans and black pudding. Overall, this place was a really comfortable and welcoming place to stay. The staff didn't seem to mind when we sat in the bar for an hour & half after check out, waiting for our friends to arrive from Glasgow so we could head to the stadium for roller derby! If you're heading to Barrow and need somewhere to stay, I'd highly recommend it here.

Just an update: Having spent time here on numerous occasions over the past month I am pleased to report that they have consistently provided excellent customer service and I have always found the place to be very clean and tidy, for those that enjoy real ales will find themselves spoiled for choice with my personal favourite being Ruddles best bitter at a very affordable £1.70 Congratulations to all the staff for a well run and friendly establishment.

Food is okay, nothing special but good value with the 2 for 1 deals and the Curry Nights they do. It's a few minutes walk from the area where most of the other pubs and clubs are, but that's not usually a problem unless it's raining! As with all Wetherspoons there's no music so you'll have to make your own entertainment - maybe a disadvantage for some, but it's also a bonus if you just want to go somewhere quiet for a drink and a chat. There are cheap house doubles and good drinks promotions, making it a good place to start your night off. The staff here are always very strict with ID (and rightly so!), so take your passport/driving licence if you look a bit young as they won't serve you otherwise! Well recommended.
