I had an awful fish & chips dinner in London last week so he brought me here to make up for it as he says they're the best he's had so far in the UK. Let me tell you that it lived up to the hype.

We had started with an octopus starter from the specials menu which had lovely fresh flavors and my husband enjoyed the squid ink risotto which was also delicious. Cute place and nice staff. I look forward to going back and trying more of their dishes, everything sounded great.

TL;DR - Nice food, but a slightly sterile venue…read more We came here for a birthday meal on a windswept and rainy night. Finding the venue is pretty challenging in the dark, as you have to drive down very narrow and bumpy unlit lanes. We had an email from the restaurant beforehand advising us that one of the two roads on the approach were flooded, which was useful advice to know in advance! The building itself is a mixture of old and new - built in the 90s, but from local stone it gives the impression of a barn conversion. The interior is warm and welcoming, but clean and modern. We were greeted at the bar and quickly seated at our table in the dining room. I understand that the huge windows at the end of the room offer amazing views, but as it was dark when we were there we were unable to see this. The menu is what you'd probably describe as British classics. I had black pudding and chorizo to start which was nice, but the black pudding wasn't the tastiest I've ever had. Mark had deep friend prawns and calamari which he enjoyed. For our mains, Mark had a steak and onion pie and I went for the steak pudding. Both were nice, but I couldn't help but feel that the presentation of the pudding was underwhelming. It was just slapped on the plate with a sea of mushy peas and chips. And the chips themselves were fine - nice, but nothing to write home about. Dessert was amazing though - I had sticky date pudding which was out of this world, and Mark had the waffles and ice cream which was enormous! This was a really nice way to round out the meal. Overall we enjoyed the meal, but after having heard people rave about this place I came away a little underwhelmed. The dining room is nice but just feels a little soulless - a big empty space with tables and chairs put in it. It didn't help that the bad weather had put a lot of people off attending - as such the enormous dining room felt pretty empty.

Looking for somewhere special for our wedding anniversary meal, I hadn't heard of The Fishermans…read moreRetreat in Bury, but when it was recommended I gave it a look online and definitely liked the sound of it. Despite the name, it isn't a seafood restaurant but a restaurant showing off British quality cuisine, nestled in the rolling hills of Ramsbottom, where you keep thinking you're getting lost until you see the occasional sign popping out of the bushes telling you that you're nearly there. As you park up, you see the wonderful surroundings of the place and hear the rush of a nearby strong stream. Very pleasant. You walk into the front doors and the first thing you see is a nice bit of provenance, showing the construction of the restaurant in 1992. I love things like this, it's nice to see people being proud of something they've put their passion into.You then pass by a large whisky bottle shop. Surprising, but a nice touch of class! Greeted at the bar, we give our names as we made a reservation and we are taken through to the next room, which is a real dramatic first impression. You walk though a small arch and into an extremely large room with a gigantic window at the far end, looking out onto the rolling moors. It's definitely a "wow" moment. The room is quite modern and a touch on the stark side, but the view makes up for it. The furniture is large chunky modern wood, and generously seated so everyone has room. We're seated and given our menu along with the day's specials. We order a couple of Diet Pepsi's, and have a nosy at the menu. The drinks take a while to appear, but I'm happy to say that two different members of staff came to update us about the situation (a problem with the pump), and gave us some water in the meantime. Service like this is what makes a potentially poor situation well handled and happily received. We start by ordering the garlic bread, described as oven baked focaccia brushed with garlic butter and served with aged balsamic and duo of pesto. I'll get this part out of the way because this was the only underwhelming part of the experience. When it came out we were quite surprised at how small the garlic bread was considering it was listed as "to share" and was £8.00, and despite being a nice piece of bread, we couldn't actually taste much garlic or seasoning at all, which was a shame. However the pesto and balsamic worked perfectly with it and saved it a little. For our mains, I ordered the beef wellington. I've never had beef wellington in a restaurant before and it seemed the perfect "special" choice. My partner ordered the steak and mushroom pie. Both arrived very pleasantly presented. The quality here was superb. The pie was bursting with flavour, and the pastry was perfect. The chips were also just as crunchy and satisfying as you'd hope! The beef wellington was stunning. I was asked if I wanted it pink or cooked through... it's nice to be asked but if you're ordering beef wellington cooked through you might as well order a burger. The beef was pink and juicy, the mushrooms superbly flavourful, and although the pastry was a touch soft, it was still delicious. The part I actually enjoyed most however was the dauphinois potatoes, which was a brick of beautifully flavoured and seasoned layers. I enjoyed every last mouthful of it, and the dish as a whole was really excellent! We were really impressed by the food, and so just had to order dessert! My partner opted for the sticky date pudding, and I opoted for the Baileys and white chocolate cheesecake, which they kindly allowed me to substitute chocolate ice cream for their cookies and cream ice cream as I'm not a big fan of chocolate ice cream. Both came nicely presented but the cheesecake really did look special! The date pudding was rich and comforting, and the perfect way to round off the meal. The cheesecake was deceptively sized! It looked little but was a big portion, and was superbly creamy and tasty indeed, but the cookies and cream ice cream was actually superb, I really enjoyed it and could easily just have got three scoops of that! The one detail I found odd with the venue was that the ladies toilets were a door just off the main room, but the gents are actually out of the room, through the bar, down a corridor, and by the front door... very odd! More than once we saw blokes going to what they assumed was the gents toilet in the next door along, only to wander into a cloakroom and be quickly chased by a member of staff directing them the right way. The service is friendly and professional, but we did on occasion find it hard to get the attention of some of the staff, despite there being quite a few around, but when we did, they were happy to help and very professional. Will definitely return!

I have dined at La Vina once for a friend's birthday. I am not a huge fan of Tapas but this is…read morewhere my friend wanted to go, so we obliged. When we were finally shown to our seats the table was still dirty from its last occupants, and we had to actually ask for it to be cleaned, as the staff had failed to notice its disgusting state. The staff also seemed a bit offended when we asked for the table to be cleaned. Once we had placed our orders service was slow. Dishes started to come out after about 30 minutes, but they did not finish coming out for a further 30 minutes. We also noticed that some of the plates were not completely clean, having stains on the outside of the plates. The food at La Vina is not cheap, so you would expect an extra effort to be made to provide a good service for customers, but this was sadly not the case. The drinks are also expensive but are nothing special. The food seemed to be quite tasty, but its difficult to appreciate a dish which is served on a dirty plate. We complained but we were not really listened to, and only our service charge was removed. I will never go here again.

As for the food, it really is fantastic but I've had better in all honesty. I had the goats cheese with cannelloni, pepper salsa and black olives, and would definitely recommend them. My friend however was not too impressed with the suckling lamb which wasn't quite right. Ironically it was a little too "slowly cooked" yet not quite cooked when it arrived. How could we complain though when surrounded by such visual profundity. The answer is hindsight. While we were there we had no such complaints as you are just immersed the 360 spectacle. Only afterwards when discussing the events of the evening did we recount what our tastebuds had to say at the time. I would imagine a lot of guys will think of proposing here. It just gives you a sense of occasion when you are up there. A must visit for everyone. Although it is pricey and expect to spend in the region of £100+ for a proper meal for two followed by drinks etc etc especially if you plan on proposing.

If you live in Nottingham or visit it often, when you think of a seafood restaurant you probably…read morethink of Loch Fyne. You probably shouldn't. Take a wander up Mansfield Road, or probably better still, hop on a bus or jump in a cab, as The Lobster Pot is quite a way up. It is worth going out of your way for though. This small restaurant in my opinion is the best fish / seafood place in the city (not that there are many to choose from), and it is a shame that it isn't closer to the city centre. Still, if it were, then the prices would probably be higher to cover higher overheads on property. I am a big fan of mussels, and this place does them wonderfully. Their menu has a good choice of fish and shellfish dishes and a small selection of meat dishes in case anybody in your party isn't keen on seafood. As far as I know though, there aren't any vegetarian options...at least, there weren't the last time I checked their menu online. Some of the dishes have an oriental bent, such as the thai fishcakes, prawn spring rolls and sesame prawn toast starters, but there are plenty of 'regular' seafood dishes. My personal favourites at this place are the smoked haddock chowder as a starter, a hearty, creamy soup which is quite filling in itself, filled with chunks of smoked fish and potato as it is. I then like to have a main course of mussels, usually the ones steamed in chilli and basil, although the more traditional Moules Marinieres are also great. A side dish of french fries goes wonderfully with them. I also sometimes indulge in a couple of fresh oysters, which can be bought individually. Two of these with a splash of tabasco sauce are enough for me as I find them quite rich, I could never eat a full portion as a main course. Various forms of salmon are well represented on the menu, although I have never sampled them myself. There is usually a specials board on display, giving options that don't appear on the regular menu. The restaurant boasts some very reasonably priced wines, with a bottle of house wine costing just under ten pounds, and plenty of others around 11 and 12 pounds. As this is a small place, I would suggest calling to book, especially at weekends and in the Christmas period. Another point in this place's favour is that during the festive period, they keep their regular menu on, instead of forcing a "special" Christmas menu upon you as many restaurants seem to. With the price of different fish and seafood varying so much, it is hard to give an average cost for a meal here, however I do believe with this place that you get what you pay for, and i've never found myself feeling bad about the money i've put down. Seriously, if you are serious about seafood, forget about Loch Fyne. The Lobster Pot wins, claws down!
