Had a wonderful and interesting tour by Sandra. You do need a tour to see most of the castle, but it was well worth it. Courtyard and businesses inside are free otherwise. Fascinating to be inside both the historic (and only closed recently) prison and the still functioning crown courts. Building is stunning and lovely views from just outside too

Amazing place to visit we had a coffee and sat in the grounds. You can pay £9 to go on a tour as well. It also has holding cells that are currently used for HM Prison. There are only a few Parking spaces outside that you have to buy a ticket for . Recommended

We took the guided tour of the castle, reasonable for £9 per person. Since it used to be a working prison and parts of it are still a working court, you have to take the guided tour to see the full thing. We had a lovely guide, very engaging and informative. The tour lasts about an hour. The castle has a lot of history, quite a lot of it is dark, the tour touches upon these themes too. There is a Prison Museum too. The courtroom is part of the tour, unless it is in session on the day. Photography isn't allowed in those parts of the tour. I would recommend visiting castle, doing the tour and then visiting the Priory at the back of the castle, there are some remains of roman baths too.

We did the tour as a family and it was really interesting. Great value for money. They give you lots of insight into the history and had a lot of knowledge. Simon made it fun and interesting and kept the whole group engaged. It’s my second time of going and I would go again. Dogs are not allowed but I couldn’t resist getting a snap of our dog there.

We used the Lancaster Park and Ride to get to the castle, the buses were comfortable and the drivers really nice and helpful. The castle itself is large but you cannot visit lots of areas and you cannot photograph in the Civil and Criminal Court areas. Your entry includes a Guided tour that is highly recommended as it is interesting, informative and well delivered. The tour takes you through the castles history, much of it being as a court, prison and place of execution and explains the relationship to various monarchs who have held the Duchy of Lancaster. There is a nice comfortable cafe, with a relaxed atmosphere, toilets are clean and fresh.

Worth a visit the tour is only £9 PP. Lots of history and interesting things to see, from the court rooms, prison cells and torture chamber devices. Must be able bodied, as the castle is old, dark in places and lots of steps.

You need to book on a tour to go inside. We arrived at 10am and booked onto the 10.45 tour so had a look round the Pendle Witches exhibition room and part of the police museum first. The tour inside was really interesting and the guide was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and entertaining. It lasted about 80min and was well worth the £9 fee.

Amazing. I eat out about once a month and this is one of the best meals we've had out this year. I had T-Bone pork and my friend had fish and chips. The staff were great, very friendly and helpful. Prices were fair for what is fine dining.

Will definitely visit again. Very close to the train station, saves having to look for a place to eat, especially if the weather is bad and you're not familiar with Lancaster. The food was wonderful, staff very pleasant and offered good recommendations. Great atmosphere and definitely try the cocktails.

Been here a few times recently and have been absolutely blown away with the quality of food. The autumn/winter 24 menu in particular has been amazing and it’s fantastic that a lot of the food is sourced locally. The atmosphere in the old wine cellars is lovely and makes for a really unique dining experience. Service is usually good but not always, sometimes members of staff can be quite abrupt but I appreciate they are probably very busy. Definitely not something to put you off going as the place really is one of a kind in Lancaster.

Wife and I visited for a date night and left absolutely delighted. I started with the King Scallops with smoked tomato dashi, orange, marinated tomato & green strawberries. This was a great combination of the light seafood with sweeter accompanying tastes that complimented each other very well. For my main I had the Lythe Valley Venison Loin with black garlic, venison sausage, red cabbage puree, celeriac terrine and elderberry jus. The venison was perfect but the venison sausage was a big wow of this dish. Special mention for the elderberry jus whicu also stood out for me. So flavorful. My wife started with the beef short rib with roast cauliflower puree, kale crisp, Yorkshire pecorino and pickled walnut. This went down a treat for her, especially with a glass of Chile pinot grigio. For her main she decided on the Barbeque monkfish with maple glaze, muscade pumpkin, kale and pumpkin seed pesto. The fish was juicy and succulent without being overpowering. Again a dish that had no faults. We hadn't eaten an evening meal here before, but had had several lunches over the years. The evening menu was outstanding and nothing like I have ever had in Lancaster before. As for atmosphere, the rooms were full and vibrant. The table service was excellent, with our waiter remembering our request for another pinot right before the main. Altogether we are absolutely delighted with the experience and cannot wait to return. Thank you Merchants.

The prices aren't cheap but the food is full of flavour and to a high standard. Particularly enjoyed the 72 hour lamb hotpot and the sticky toffee pudding with marmalade ice cream.

The cutest venue. Feels like you're eating in a wine cellar. The best French onion soup i have ever had! The lamb hot pot is savory and delicious. Highly recommend.

The best Lancashire Hot pot ever. A very limited menu however.

I love the layout of the shopping centre. Serene environment, safe place with lots of shopping options.

Lovely shopping centre

Lancaster was a quaint little old town with a very impressive castle and a lovely shopping area pedestrianized.

A nice place full of shops, a café, a hotel, and even a grocery that sells meat etc

Friendly and fascinating place, spent loads and loved it!!

Nicely set out, plenty of shops, and enough eateries for a decent day out . There's a good mix of smaller stores to the larger high street shops. Venture slightly further and you can find some quaint coffee shops and interesting shops on the backstreets. Security is always around, ample bins for rubbish,and it's clean.

Small shopping centre with not much variation. The Primark is the best thing here and has a big selection of clothing but apart from this and the new look there isn't much else to shout about. Takes a couple of minutes to walk all the way round and I normally come out empty handed.

Friendly staff members, welcoming relaxed atmosphere and very reasonably priced cafe for Lancaster. The portion sizes are huge and presented beautifully. The food itself is high quality and tasty - large selection, also. We had the falafel platter, chips, spiced teacake, date & pear slice, apple juice and a glass of milk. All very good and filling.

Super place for a fully vegetarian menu. It was packed on a weekday lunchtime and people were queuing out of the door but the queue moved fairly quickly. Tip: reserve a table in advance if you can. Up a flight of stairs. Menu seems to be based on Specials that keep changing.

Great little vegetarian spot hidden upstairs in an alleyway. The chorizo is a great veggie effort!

Had a lovely brunch here and I got an English breakfast. You can tell how big it was, very filling, very good. My friend got the BLT and the sauce in it was to die for! The two matcha drinks were very tasty with oat milk and all Atmosphere was nice and relaxed and the staff were very polite to talk to.

ABSOLUTELY BLOOODY LUVLEH never in my entire life have I tasted such a SCRUMMY YUMMY DELICACY. I just came back from a big big boss business meeting and this scran quenched my HUNGERRR. it was quite nice, staff very friendly and hospitable and reasonable prices, very glad we came here and nice views. SOOOOOO YUM YUM 😛😛

It's a very serene place and the garden area is dog friendly so if you are a pet owner you can visit this cafe with your pet. The food is really good and served warm. The staff are really friendly and accommodating. They also help with any allergies, just let the staff know.

We visited early on a Saturday morning, so the atmosphere was, understandably, a little flat. However, the vegan full English breakfast was gorgeous! It even came with vegan black pudding, which was a 1st for us. Strangely, the toast came way before the meal and was cold, but that was it for any negatives. The space is set out with more formal eating tables but around the edges are sofas for more relaxed just drinks areas. To find the entrance is a little challenging as it is hidden from the main street. You also need to climb some stairs to get to it. But it is very much worth it.

Absolutely incredible pizza! The crust is perfectly light with that authentic wood-fired smokiness, and the toppings are fresh and generous without ever feeling heavy. Service was quick and friendly, and everything arrived hot and full of flavor. Easily one of the best Neapolitan pizzas I’ve had in the UK. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Cosy little place, the large wood-fired oven in the background adds a bit of theatre. Pizzas here are very good indeed - you’ll have to try hard to find somewhere as good. Tiramisu is bob on too.

Fabulous pizza! Can see why they win so many awards, the pizza is delicious and the sauces are incredible! I got a veggie pizza with garlic sauce and it was easily the best pizza I’ve had in the UK. The staff are friendly and food is made quickly but is of such great quality, you can really taste the wood from the firing process which is delicious! I’ll definitely return!

This place is great! A perfect example of how Neapolitan Pizza should be. Fresh San Marzano tomatoes, Airy crust and a thin base. The garlic bread on its own is pretty bland, I’d recommend getting it with Rosemary and Salt (No fault of Aquila here though, just my preference) Great to have a place like this on your doorstep and will definitely be ordering here again. Cheers Aquila team :)

I tried their Nduja Pizza, made with San Marzano tomatoes, parmesan, mozzarella, spicy nduja sausage spread, basil, and extra virgin olive oil, it was absolutely delicious. The garlic bread was phenomenal, especially when paired with their homemade garlic and chili dips. The service was very welcoming, and the ambience was quite decent. Parking is most likely available along the roadside.

Recently used Aquila and one of their online package catering deals to cater for out event. With just over 24 hours notice they were amazing, with a nice easy online order and on the day timely delivery and the food was amazing as ever. They produced over 30 pizzas absolutely perfectly and arrived exactly when we asked, sadly no photos as it was all enjoyed too quickly! Can't recommend enough for catering (having used personally before) for an event!

Ordered 2 pizzas for a home delivery and they arrived 30 minutes late. Consequently, they were cold, soggy, and incredibly chewy like wet cardboard by the time they arrived. Stones were also still in some of the olives. Didn’t bother calling the restaurant as it was already almost 10pm by the time they arrived. Absolute waste of £30! UPDATE: The restaurant very kindly gave us a voucher of £30 (Thank you so much). We picked up the pizzas from their takeaway this time. They were better this time round, high quality toppings and no stones in the olives, but the bases/crusts still rather tough and lacking in flavour in our opinion. Management clearly care about their customers, which is really great to see. Thanks again.

Had to delay my visit as there was a private function but it was well worth the wait and a worthy way to end my mini tour of Lancaster. Excellent place with a brilliant selection of cask ales

My favourite pub in Lancaster- a city full of great pubs. Great cask ales as well as craft beers and ciders, etc. The open mic session on Wednesdays is always top quality. Top Class!

Such a calm and stylish bar. The beers on offer are extensive and great quality. The barman was really friendly and clearly knew his stuff about the drinks on offer. We luckily had a thunderstorm during our visit, so had to stay for a few extra rounds of drinks. A must visit if you like good quality beer and a comfortable, stylish vibe.

Lovely atmosphere as always. Inside decoration didn't changed much, still looking great under the new name. Excellent choice of beers and wines. Staff are very friendly and polite, quick service. We had nice time and will be coming for more. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

Visited this bar twice on Saturday, it has various beers on which, my friend likes. The bar was quite quiet which, we were pleased with. We managed to get served very quickly and get a seat in the window. Lancaster was busy as the sun was shining and it was a very hot day. The bar was clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. I really liked what they did with old beer cans. They’d actually put a small plant inside it which was really nice. The beet was nice and cold just what was needed.

Mia was absolutely amazing. Very attentive, made two amazing limoncello spritz. Would definitely come back, only! If Mia is still here. Otherwise I will not because what’s the point. Amazing customer service, wonderful attitude, she deserves all the praise and definitely a promotion as she is the only reason I would come back to this bar. I love her. Such great conversation and an amazing bar staff. A credit to your company. Hire more Mias. I love her. Please keep her and I’ll come back and spend more money.

Visited this pub after a long trip up from the south. Had a very friendly welcome and nice introduction to the local ales available on the pumps. Don't miss it if you're in Lancaster. You won't be disappointed if you like a good traditional pub with quality beer.

I come to Lancaster on Monday evening and the city is very quiet. Luckily, I find this hidden Chinese Restaurant on the second floor of the supermarket. All dishes are good! Only tomyum that is not spicy as I expected, so I recommend to order chinese dishes as they made it very well 😋 Ps they take only cash! Be prepared!

Really lovely place to eat out. As a vegetarian, there are lots of tasty choices and served quickly. This has been a haven for my child whilst at uni with long stressful days at medical placements- perfect place to get a takeaway or sit in. As a family, we visit every time we were up and hopefully will if we are ever up north again. Thank you for your amazing food and warm, friendly service!

Quirky hidden gem. Not from the area and holidaying in Heysham. Wanted a good recommendation for a Chinese restaurant. Found this online. Rear/upstairs in a Chinese supermarket. Think takeaway counter with dining. Very casual but very good. Staff friendly. Food a solid 9/10. All fresh and tasty. Yes they take card payments. Yes they serve a small range of alcohol. Remote upstairs location so a number of stairs.

The restaurant is quite hidden as you have to go into the supermarket and then up the stairs. Their food has great value for money and tastes very home-made. We ordered their Stir Fried Hor Fun with Beef (干炒牛河) and Claypot Stewed Beef Flank with Rice (瓦煲牛腩饭) which both came only 7 minutes after being ordered!

Always great experience after visiting this place. I will definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone. Good prices, quick and very friendly service. Very nice and kind with children too. Food is always nice and fresh.

The menu is so diversified. Lots of food to select and try like everything around southeast asia was comtained in this restaurant starting from China, Hong Kong, Thailand, Malaysia, or even Singapore. I ordered 2 dished which were really delicious the taste and the smell is so good. The service of waitresses is also good and polite comparing to some chinese restaurant near Vue Cinema, the Full House wins. They like to take care of customers and always try to have a chat with customers even we dont know each other or as newcomers But the only thing that i dont really like is how they decorate their restaurant, it is a little bit unfashionable 😂😂😂

Fresh awesome food! Edit: Went out for my birthday, was feeling sorry for my self with it being in the middle of a Covid a Pandemic and being unable to see all my family and friends. I felt really safe in this restaurant and staff are lovely. The portion sizes were HUGE we took a lot home! They even allowed us to bring cake but we ended up taking it home as we ate too much food. Thank you for making my birthday a good one.

You can’t get higher quality Thai food near here than Blue Moon. Really great service too. Only down side was the draft through the entrance. Loved it. Second visit: 1.5 hour wait for main. Food was delicious but not sure I would wait again.

The food here was excellent and the portions, despite the size was excellent. The kitchens were clean and the staff pleasant. The decor and ambiance was serene.

One of my favourite places to eat in Lancaster! Fresh, delicious food. The quality is insane for the price. Staff are so attentive. And you HAVE to try the Thai Iced tea! Wow. So sweet and delicious. Cocktails are very tasty but a little pricey. Lunch time deals are reasonable for a big portion at a good price.

All round excellent experience here - the staff were great and the food came out in good time and tasted very good. Would definitely recommend.

A very nice Thai restaurant with a great ambiance, good service and great food. Prices are reasonable with good portion sizes

I have walked past this restaurant many times, and I decided to have a try; I ordered a lunch special set No.7, which costs £9. The lunch set came with a piece of duck spring roll, a piece of deep fried prawn and Massaman beef curry with steamed rice. Duck spring roll was not good because the meat smell was too strong. Deep fried prawn was good. Massaman beef curry was terrible. They used sliced beef instead of chunks, so It wasn’t tender and juicy at all. The flavour of the curry was also not good; it seemed to be just instant curry paste and coconut milk. Thus, it was completely different from what I have eaten in Thailand. Service was average. Therefore, I think that the lunch special set is not worthy, and I will definitely not be back again.

Beautiful Thai eatery in the centre of Lancaster. There is parking a little way down the street and a few stairs inside the venue. It was a little noisy when we ate otherwise it was beautiful, clean, well presented and the staff were very professional. The prices are eye watering expensive for very simple food. Good food but I'm not sure worthy of the price tag. My massaman curry with rice was 14 pounds! Annoyingly it was the best one I'd ever had. I finished with deep fried ice cream which is divine and I highly recommend it. So in summary, I'd say go there, order carefully, drink water, think about a set menu, and enjoy great food.

A wonderful place to spend a day or a few hours! The park is perfect for walking and relaxing, with beautiful paths, ponds, and even a mini zoo. Families will love the playgrounds, and everyone can enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. The views from the park are absolutely spectacular, especially around the Ashton Memorial. If you’re visiting Lancaster without a car, it’s easy to reach by taking bus number 18 from the city centre. Highly recommended for a relaxing day out. 🌿✨

It's a lovely space to enjoy. The butterfly house contains all the gorgeous creatures and tropical plants for everyone to admire. There are lovely quiet space to sit and rest to enjoy the views. I moved here alone and Williamson Park is my favourite local comfort venture!

A well kept secret in Lancashire!! A beautiful and well kept 54 acres park, so wonderful in the outskirts of Lancaster and so close to the university. The Ashton memorial is magnificent! The little zoo and butterfly house are a delight. A small fee to access the former and a parking fee for a whole day parking. Pack a picnic bag, take your friends, your pet, your loved ones, it will be a well spent day in this gorgeous place. A

We had a great time at the park. We climbed the steps to the tower, enjoyed a nice coffee at the kiosk and went on a forest walk. An absolute delight

Such a beautiful park. Visited this park in January and had great views from the top of the hill, breathtaking views out towards Morecambe Bay. Lovely cafe with plenty of seating. Perfect for a Sunday morning walk.

It's such a nice quiet place. The best for piece and calm stroll , family time with kids or walking dogs. There's a playground and dog friendly cafe

Beautiful spacious park. Great for walking, picnics, general relaxing. Views from the monument are awesome, and the butterfly house is an interesting attraction. 🦋

Very nice memorial located on the top of the hill. I would recommend getting a bus or a car to get here it was very painful to kinda hike. The scenery is very breathtaking it’s not crowded but seems like a popular family picnic place. The building itself seems to been very well managed 👍👍👍 Would recommend visiting when you are in Lancaster🤗

A beautiful landmark on a hill in Williamson Park. It offers breathtaking panoramic views across Lancaster and out to Morecambe Bay on a clear day. One of the things I love most is catching sight of its dome from different parts of the city.

The memorial is a beautiful building inside and out, with an added bonus of access to higher outside levels for panoramic viewing; this is accessed by staircases on either end of the building. The art inside, as well as the chandelier, is simply stunning. I would highly recommend the visit, and it's also a stones throw away from the butterfly house and play park for families.

Beautiful big old memorial building within Williamson park. Free to enter and access the viewing platform up many stairs !! Great views of the surrounding park and town..

If u like nice views this is the place. A well kept park with stunning views and lots of walking areas and Butterflys 🦋

A free attraction. Great views from the first level balcony. You can see as far at Blackpool Tower and the hills of the Lake District Unmanned when we went, not sure this is typical. Well worth the climb

Best place in Lancaster to spend a sunny (or rainy) afternoon. Great natural park, acres of lovely woodland walks with good paths (for children's buggies) but some with steps. Lake, fountains and waterfalls all built in to the natural landscape. Two children's play areas, butterfly house and insect house. Perhaps the best feature is the towering Ashton memorial, climb the 100 steps for a fabulous view over Morecambe Bay to the Lakes. Inside the folly which is round (and used for weddings) climb to the top putting a donation in the box. There is something for everyone.

This is a what could be called an "Antique Court" - many antique stalls under one roof, each stall selling particular type of items or pieces. One needs to spend hours and would certainly unearth Very rare and a bargain is guaranteed. On the whole a Nice place to visit . The drawback we noticed was some of the items bad gathered dust and dirt maybe by just lying there for Long time.

Excellent place to while away the hours if you like antique emporiums , absolutely huge , loads to look at with multiple dealers inside. Ample parking , clean modern toilets on site , lots of other businesses close by to peruse , the Traditional butchers is an absolute must visit . The scotch eggs and sausage rolls are fantastic . Cafe,s and a Brewery on site .

This was an interesting place, great if you live in the UK , good for a wander around.

I love this warehouse of wonders. I'm slowly kitting out my whole house with really good quality furniture at very affordable prices. You can spend hours browsing and if there's anything at all you need, you'll find it here. We even picked up some free chairs this time to go with a lovely £15 table. The staff are always really helpful too.

Took half a day to get round the place! Some amazing finds to be had if you have the time to wade out through the tat to get there! We loved it though

Well worth a look inside, you'll be surprised how much stuff you remember when you're looking through the stuff, there is literally something for everyone, go have a look, bought several items , not antiques but were great value for the money

Amazing place well set out and organised, great farm shop too, will definitely be back 😀

Lovely independent cinema & theatre. Shows some interesting films (we loved A New Kind of Wilderness recently). Nice bar/cafe area too.

Superb little independent cinema and arts centre, with a tiny bar and lounge, what could be better? Came here on a Sunday to watch a film to top off a lovely afternoon in town. Cinema was clean, comfy, the screen a decent size, and the projection quality was good. All the staff were friendly, and fellow cinema goers were polite and quiet during the showing. It was like how I remember going to the pictures used to be in the 90s. Looking at the showing guide, there's a really eclectic mix of films, and I'm planning future trips when I'm in town. If I lived closer, I would come here all the time!

A small theatre venue but actually really quaint. Went to see Lizzie there and it was amazing! There is a cute little cafe too which you can visit before the theatre or during the interval.

Absolutely fantastic little theatre. All staff very attractive and seating comfortable. Bar had ran out of popular drinks like rose wine and gin on arrival.......

Our first visit to the Dukes (cinema, not theatre) was what I was expecting, friendly staff, not many people ;), fun movie and nice artsy feel.

A lovely independent cinema. I have been visiting here for many years now and always receive excellent service. All prices are reasonable and the cinema is clean and well kept. Every month there is a ‘mystery film’ which I would highly recommend. I have seen some amazing films I would otherwise never have seen. If you are in Lancaster I would recommend visiting for either the cinema or live shows.

Welcoming staff, comfy seats. I didn't have any refreshments but the lobby is very spacious and there's a few tables to use if you need though they were all full when we arrived. Toilets are clean but feel a little dated (sort of remind me of school for some reason)

A nice little theatre, in desperate need of a new foyer, as it can get quite tight when punters start mingling. The toilets and bars are pretty satisfactory, but the seats can be a bit uncomfortable for the larger, and longer legged audience member.

Great fun at Northern Live Do I Love You last night. Danced at the side of the seating all night! Highly recommended stalls seating 17 & 18 if you want to dance!!

Great small venue. Friendly and helpful staff. View from our upper level seats was fine. Drinks and snacks not as overpriced as in many venues. Plenty of parking in that area of town. Rather small circulation spaces outside the auditorium make the interval and arrival less relaxed than in other venues and the toilet facilities could do with an update. That said, it's a venue we'd happily return to

Went to see The Overtones on May 12th. Staff were friendly helpful and the theatre is amazing and comfortable. The show was awesome..

It's a lovely little theatre with a lot of history. I've seen many shows here over the years. It's just the right size to be part of an enthusiastic audience but not be too crowded. Seating is a little cramped, or cosy, depending on your point of view.

Lovely old theatre well maintained with passionate and knowledgeable staff. Easy to attend venue with close parking.

A wonderful theatre, hinting back to times past. Staff amazing, well worth a visit to see a play or go on the tour.

Lovely 😍 place.Excellent helpful polite staff. The cafeteria looks out over the beautiful gardens. Limited menu but great for a cuppa and really nice cake and pastries. Little on the pricy side

Fabulus gardens. Especially at the moment with so many grasses and plants attracting bees and other insects. A great pity most visitors dont go further than the cafe!☕️🥘

Beautiful centre. The gift shop is excellent and staff are friendly. Great parking, well priced plants. The cafe was a bit noisy for my taste…so we sat outside.

We used to visit often but don’t tend to go as much anymore. The coffee is always nice but the cake selection has rarely changed in the last 10 years and could do with freshening up. Varying the specials wouldn’t go amiss either. Don’t go for lunch anymore as it’s slightly on the expensive side for what you get. Nice that it’s dog friendly though

I wanted to say a big Thank You to Jules at the garden centre. Last week I accompanied my elderly friend to buy a bird table. Jules not only furnished us with a wheelchair but he also loaded the bird table into my car. What an absolute star!! Knowing how well we were looked after we will not hesitate to return. Hoorah!!

Delightful garden centre and restaurant. Beautiful displays of flowers.

This is our new favourite place to eat: Lovely setting and really nice sunbathed dining area - with floor to ceiling windows looking out onto the outdoor plants, that are set in a walled garden. There are wide choices of vegetarian food - there’s gluten free and vegan too, they seem very ingredient conscious. The main thing though is that the food is delicious - lovely place and great food. Fantastic 😊

Delicious spot for lunch! Outstanding little restaurant/brasserie/bistro spot with a small but very well executed menu. The food was some of the best I ate in Lancaster. Fresh, tasty and perfectly prepared. The place is small but feels larger than it is and is very bright and airy. The quality of the staff matched the quality of everything else, top notch. Definitely check this place out if you're hungry in Lancaster. The Lancashire Benedict is highly recommended!!

Fantastic little restaurant. A little bit pricey, but if you want to treat yourself, it's well worth it. Food was fantastic, the ginger loaf with the goats curd was fantastic. I would suggest getting the veg with the mackerel but overall worth the walk to get. The star reduction was because they forgot my Americano at the end. In summary, if you're in the area and stuck with were to go I would say you should go and try!

We were really looking forward to trying this place, but unfortunately it turned out to be far too expensive for what was on offer. Even with the early bird deal, it still didn’t feel like good value. To be clear, we were aware of the prices beforehand and we would have been happy to pay that, but sadly the quality of the food just didn’t justify the cost. It’s clear they’re trying hard to create something special, but sadly they’re missing the mark and it was very average. On a positive note, the staff were lovely and the restaurant itself was nicely presented - but overall, the food simply isn’t worth the money.

Recommend the vinho verde with food, any dishes! Great food, the wild pigeon was fantastic as well as all the dishes in the pictures. The oysters are fresh and the supplier is great. Had my birthday meal here and I loved it, only recommendation is a bigger deal with birthdays, maybe a glass of Prosecco upon arrival. This detail didn’t make my experience worse, I had a lovely time!

We visited the Quaterhouse last night and really enjoyed our meal. The cocktails were very nice, we particularly enjoyed the summer sangria. We ordered 5 small plates and 3 sides which was a good amount for the 2 of us. We really liked the pressed potato chips, king prawns and garlic French toast however this was a bit spicy! There were a few things that could be improved. The toilet needed a bit of work, there wasn’t a coat hook for example and some of the finishes were worn down. We were also given a dirty knife and they didn’t have the scallops which was disappointing and we were told until after we had ordered. At the end of our meal we saw someone order the surf and turf which looked amazing. We would order that if we were to return. Overall a lovely meal, with a few tweaks it would be excellent.

We've been trying to cut down on our meat intake so were happy to see plenty of veggie options on the menu. Ordered the mushrooms on toast, and of course, they weren't just any old mushrooms on toast. The homemade Romesco sauce offered a delicious twist. Cooked to perfection. Super reasonable as well. We would definitely recommend!

Food is exceptional. You need to order 3 or 4 dishes , like a tasting menu. Items will be cooked and served at different times as prepared. The menu changes over time so there is often variation. Have been there 4 times now and every time the food has been outstanding. Totally recommend.

Visited today for the first time and won't go again. Slow service just to get a cup of coffee. I've had meals produced faster. The coffee was nice but a bit on the expensive side. We were going to eat there but figured he a coffee took this long maybe we wouldn't bother. Not a great menu anyway. Didn't see any gluten free menus either. Table could have done with a wipe down as it still had marks on from last customer.Such a shame.

Had breakfast here this morning and have to say it was awesome and great value for money. Food was really great and staff where helpful. The place was really clean and it wasn't too busy for a Sunday morning!

came for a brew the other day so thought we would give the cavery a retry as it’s been an age- glad we did staff were really friendly, Sam in particular was welcoming and helpful. Food was excellent and plentiful, great choice of meat and veggies. Def’ come again ! thank you

Me and my fiancee stumbled on this spot rather by accednt, what a fortunate accedent it was let me tell you!. We had been looking for a regular breakfast spot for a while and finally we have found somewhere great, the breakfast was perfect, fresh and tasty. The staff were freindly and professional and the atmosphere was great overall a fantastic experience I have no complaints only praise! 10/10 A1 we will be coming back!

My sister and I love eating here. The staff are fantastic, the food brilliant for a quick day away. The ice cream is to die for! We’re so happy this country style kitchen is back up and running!! ❤️❤️

Delicious carvery, very generous portions, friendly staff, relaxing atmosphere- most definitely beats going to a chain pub (like toby carvery) any time/day of the week!

First time visiting the restaurant since it reopened. Carvery was lovely, all the staff were incredibly friendly from FOH to carver then the ice cream server. Highly recommend and we will be back :)

Ordered through Lancaster and Morecambe Eats. There was a 40% off discount but I’m not sure it was even worth that money. I ordered a double smashed cheeseburger and loaded fries. The loaded fries were nice but everything was cold, also I didn’t expect the smashed patties to be paper thin.

When the delivery driver asks you how long you’ve been waiting for your food, the answer is indefinitely : too long. I wanted to try this spot being a uni student, and had read that delivery times were an issue for other customers. I too ran into this problem, my order placed at 9.25, arrived 1 hour late at 11pm. I had to ring, just to make sure my order hadn’t been forgotten! They mentioned they were waiting on a driver which can’t be helped and some credit must be given for that. However, when it appears there is a consistent issue with delivery, and the problem is not solved, (I’ve never had to wait 1 hour for a driver on other Deliveroo deliveries) I have to ask: how does this business operate? Seemingly, with little care for the time of their customers. The food itself was okay, hence the 3 stars, some freezer items, the chicken burger was nice. However everything was oddly spicy, which crept up on me through eating and make the experience less enjoyable. Not sure how or why this happened. I believe this place could be better, if the wait time was adequate. If the food itself was worth waiting until 11pm (way past dinner time - even for a uni student) then perhaps I’d be less peeved about waiting. However, I will be sticking to Sultans from now on, whose food is much better quality, and wait time much more reliable.

More like 0 stars. Disgusting!!!! Ordered a kebab and when it arrived it was evident that the meat was not fresh and just heated up in the microwave. Disgusting is an understatement. Advertising is so fake as well. Their food looks nothing as advertised. Didn't get a refund for my food and they never picked up the phone. Do not come here.

Ordered through Lancaster & Morecambe eats app, at around 1900, the app said 45 minutes, but food didn't arrive until about 2100. I tried to call restaurant, but no answer. When the food arrived, it wasn't very warm, and I was fairly underwhelmed with the size, considering the price. The food was tightly screwed up in tin foil, which had an unappetising result. Burger meat had a bit of a weird taste, as though it might have been nearing the end of its shelf life. Wasn't abysmal, but pretty disappointed, will avoid in future.

Came here a couple months ago, they got all orders wrong and the food was cold. Thought we’d give them a second chance, it was just awful the fries were cold, the burger was disgusting! We ordered on just eat and it said a 50 minute wait, when we got there it was dead and no one came to the counter for about 5 minutes. Do not recommend

Lovely food, lovely accommodating staff, couldn't be more helpful will be returning Thanks guys!

bad, the chicken was warm and all the coating had gone mushy also was spicy when i ordered lemon and herb the chips were dry and stale as well as the box was missing bread and one chicken tender. i seriously paid £11 for this? NOT AS ADVERTISED not to mention i spent near £60 without my 20% discount.

As you can see by the picture, the coffee is by far the best on campus, the music provides a lovely, calming atmosphere. Pizza is very tasty with a generous selection of condiments. The staff are generally friendly apart from the one barista lady who has the worst attitudes I’ve come across. Don’t get me wrong, she makes excellent coffee but customer service is just as important as a good coffee. It seems that she thoroughly dislikes being there and would rather be elsewhere, not serving us. As another side note, greater access to charging points would be helpful instead of having only one table that you can work from.

This place is one of the go to spot for Lancaster students. Atmosphere just feels like you are in cozy home! I always get energised by the place.

It's such a nice place to grab some delicious food at a reasonable price inside the university. Most importantly they have vegetarian options available. Their pizza's and garlic bread are just awesome. They have a variety to offer in terms drinks and desserts as well. Also they have amazing meal deals.

I love this place! It has very friendly staff and the set up is great! There's a mixture of leather sofas and tables and chairs, as well as outdoor seating. The pizzas are great and are at affordable prices, and the cakes they have on display always look great. I'm never disappointed here!

Utterly disappointed with my order today, chicken wings have probably been reheated few times and tasted like they are two days old, overcooked and hence burnt, and the burger tastes absolutely useless with totally dry bun which seems expired.

Nice atmosphere and setting. Pizza was OK but clearly was using lower quality cheese and tasted what you'd expect from a pizza and burger takeaway you can find all over the place. For being on campus the ease of access is good however, there are much better options in Lancaster.

I quite liked this restaurant before cuz the food was nice for the price. BUT this time when I came, the chicken were not crispy any more and even RAW inside!!! I complained to the staff and he gave me another 8 chicken BUT some were still raw inside!!! I felt VERY DISAPPOINTED about the cooking. I know the restaurant is so busy now cuz all students come back on campus. BUT it doesn’t mean that the food quality should be affected!!! Won’t try chicken here any more. My appetite was totally ruined.
