Popped in for lunch. Not busy which was good. Service was friendly and prompt. The menu has a wide choice and we chose dirty fries. The portions were large, tasty and nicely presented. Think we will go for the 2 for £15 next time! My only negative is that the dining area seemed cold. We weren't sitting near the door. A friend who visited last week made the same comment.

Good Menu but service practically non-existent, despite it being rather quiet. Arrived and waited at bar, never asked for drinks whilst waiting. Taken to table but again never given chance to order drinks, managed to get attention of a waitress and order 4 drinks followed by food. Food arrived before drinks which had to be asked for a 3rd time. Wrong food order brought out meant 1 of us had to wait another 15 mins for food - No apology offered and made to feel like it was our fault. No - one bothered to check in at any time, but to be honest by the time we all got to eat we just wanted to get away. Needs massive improvement on service and some form of direction given to the staff.

I had a night at Courthouse Bolton and unfortunately i was met with extremely poor customer service by a bartender with the name of Adam. He gave the worst attitude towards me and my friends, which put a dampner on our night out. It was extremely poor and im unsure how he is still employed at this establishment. Furthermore, he was incompetent within his job, serving our drinks 40 minutes after we ordered, despite them being wrong! A lovely establishment, ruined by ignorant and rude staff members - Adam. I hope this issue is sorted, as i will not be returning and i will being telling friends and family not to bother with this place.

Fantastic place very welcoming, and a special thanks to the manager Kian who was extra helpful on our visit, he definitely deserves a payrise. Thanks again Kian, top man.

Booked a table for a small party of 4 to enjoy a festive lunch with colleagues; the staff were extremely helpful when I made the initial booking - even when I phoned to make a last minute amendment to add another person.The serving staff were very patient, helpful & respectful to us all and were clearly making us, along with other parties feel welcome.The timing of general service & bringing out the food was clearly well thought out - something that rarely gets mentioned in a review but makes a big difference.The food itself (I can only judge the food I personally ordered) was cooked perfectly; delicate and seasoned tastefully, the lamb main course & garnish was indulgent in flavour - a very generous serving too, but this is what you would want to expect in a festive winter dish!If I was to give any constructive criticism I'd have to be a bit nit-picky here; the prices of the individual dishes are a little on the high-side for the local area - but I can only say this is justified for two reasons: as I picked from the set 'festive menu' the price was reduced somewhat, and secondly the service & quality of the food were also above the accepted standard of what I would expect in the local area.Thanks to you all for making our extended lunch hour a pleasant one!Benjamin

I went with my friend for a meal at 6:45 and they wouldn’t let us in due to me not bringing ID as i was driving so therefore wasn’t planning to drink. it said nothing on the website about needing to bring ID and we booked a reservation so assumed we could go inside for a meal. the bouncer himself was very rude and passive aggressive, making comments about how my attitude stinks. I am very shocked and appalled at this kind of service. It’s new year’s eve, and now i’ve been made to go back home due to every where else being fully booked, and we booked the courthouse in advanced to prevent this happening. I felt embarrassed at the public confrontation that he presented towards us. It said on the website that we would be charged if we didn’t turn up to our reservation, now that means we will be charged even though we did turn up but they didn’t let us in. It’s as if i’m being charged for public humiliation. I went out of my way to travel to this restaurant and would have been too much hassle and time consuming if i was to go back home and fetch my ID. I also had to pay for parking to visit this restaurant and that has gone to waste. I wish for compensation for the humiliation i encountered.
Lovely food and drinks but only complaint was the bartender, I believe his name was Adam. He was extremely rude and almost put a damper on our evening. Despite the incompetence of the bartender the girls and I had an okay night. He was too busy flirting to attend our party.

Ate here on Christmas Eve, post-refurbishment. Love the new menu with lots to choose from, large portions and tasty food. Good service and friendly staff. On this occasion I have to say the fish was awful, I don't think it was fresh and tasted a bit spicy and, luke warm in the middle. I don't think we will be eating here again.

This place has become so run down that it is almost a dive . My bench seat had a ripped cover .. there was no coffee ,as machine was broken . I asked for pepper and the pot had no plug in it so therefore no pepper . The ladies toilets were closed , so had to yes the disabled toilets. There was no mirror in them .. I asked to speak to management ,but none appeared .. as this is the only proper restaurant in town it is a disgrace , no wonder it was practically empty .

Had a meal here for my birthday on Saturday 18th November. The food was really good. They charged my family £40.00 for a £16.99 birthday cake from Costco. They were also overcharged for the food and some shots. They over charged by £40.00 and they have been emailed twice now. When my son was making a booking they replied straight away. So far my son has had no replies to his emails. Be careful when you go here. Check your bill very carefully before you pay it. We had a very large bill as there were 14 of us. So didn't notice the over charging until next day. They have said they will ring to sort out the overcharging and still waiting for it to happen. Definitely won't be going here again
