The Stork Hotel
Corricks Ln, Conder Green, LancasterReally nice Sunday dinner at the Stork. Was absolutely fantastic, most had roast dinner (beef, turkey or Lamb shank) and everyone had good reviews. Free extra gravy and Yorkshire puddings were a bonus! We all had desserts and sticky toffee pudding was fantastic - really good food all around.
Atmosphere could have been slightly better (however we came mid Sunday afternoon), looked like lots of tables were reserved for later on. However the pub is a nice space to eat and lots of space - not cramped at all.
Our “what could be better” was the coffee at the end of the meal - was quite weak.
We can’t wait to come back - thanks for a great meal.

I'm not fully vegan, but try to eat a plant-based diet 4-5 days a week, and you certainly don't feel you're sacrificing anything in terms of taste, variety or quality at The Herb.
A calming atmosphere and lovely staff too. Well done to the whole team (including the Chefs who probably don't get a shout out often enough) ?

Tipple Cocktails
61 King St, LancasterBest cocktails in Lancaster and super service. Very knowledgeable lady behind the bar that put great effort into making our drinks and was chatty at the same time which was nice.It's table service. We were given a card to turn over when we wanted another drink which is a great idea and we received super quick service.I'm not keen on the high metal stools that are hard to get on if you are a shorter or 'larger' person and they make a lot of noise as they scrape on the floor or bang into the table legs.I would love to give 5 stars but sadly I've been to nicer looking places and had cheaper cocktails as good in other cities.Would be nice to see some other offers on the menu such as buy 1 get one for 1/2 price as they are very expensive when buying individually.

The Cross Keys
Main Rd, Slyne, LancasterCame here for a Sunday roast and it did not disappoint. I had the roast beef which was beautiful and my partner had the trio of meat which he thoroughly enjoyed and my dad had the pork which he said was also beautiful. Amazing roast potatoes and a nice selection of vegetables. We opted for 2 portions of honey and mustard chipolatas (should have only ordered 1 as there were lots) I also added the cauliflower cheese which was one of the nicest I've ever had out.
Excellent service and a lovely atmosphere.
We will definitely be back again.

Greaves Park
Bowerham Rd, LancasterVisited here on the 26/10/24 for my sister’s 21st. Where to start, the building itself is old and beautiful, and feels like you are in a castle! The staff were super friendly, wishing my sister a happy birthday when they saw the badges and the happy birthday decor we put in the table where she was sat. I opted for soup of the day which was carrot and butternut squash. The soup was delicious and came with warm bread that tasted homemade! I had the steak and ale pie and as you can see from the pictures of my main, proper portion sizes! This sets a bench mark for other pubs to follow in suite in portion sizes! I was so full after my meal I skipped pudding and opted for a tasty cappuccino! Others in the group had Americano and they offered milk instead of just putting it on the table which is rare nowadays. Service and food were superb! The toilets were spotless and the decor, seats and tables were great, gave a warm, romantic feeling. I will deffo be back and may even have a meal here before xmas! The staff could not do enough for us and were enthusiastic which was great! Can’t wait to come back here and without a doubt the best meal I have had out in a while and is mow in my top 3 places to eat out in! Keep up the great work, and thank you for making my sister’s 21st 1 to remember! On a final note I suspect all the food is homemade and cooked/served to order!

Iceland Supermarket Lancaster
22 Perpignan Way, LancasterI just wanted to write a special mention about Jean from today at 1.15pm in Lancaster. For the quick 5 minutes that I was in the store, Jean went out of her way to help the 2 people in front of me on the tills. The first was a lady who she advised that if she picks one more item up it would be free (on a 3 for 2 offer). The second was an old man buying a loaf of bread, he handed her the £1 and she offered to help him count his change instead to "make his pockets lighter". Jean really is the definition of "going the extra mile". Both of these services were unnecessary but was incredibly kind of her. It's very rare to see people take such care in customer service these days but is very heart warming to see.

The menu is huge, including delicious vegan meals such as tofu and mock chicken, duck and beef which are all very convincing alternatives. Food is always fresh and you get much bigger portions for your money than most other takeaways. Everything is absolutely delicious and the staff are lovely. Takeaways always arrive in good time.

The Cross Keys
Main Rd, Slyne, LancasterCame here for a Sunday roast and it did not disappoint. I had the roast beef which was beautiful and my partner had the trio of meat which he thoroughly enjoyed and my dad had the pork which he said was also beautiful. Amazing roast potatoes and a nice selection of vegetables. We opted for 2 portions of honey and mustard chipolatas (should have only ordered 1 as there were lots) I also added the cauliflower cheese which was one of the nicest I've ever had out.
Excellent service and a lovely atmosphere.
We will definitely be back again.

Greaves Park
Bowerham Rd, LancasterVisited here on the 26/10/24 for my sister’s 21st. Where to start, the building itself is old and beautiful, and feels like you are in a castle! The staff were super friendly, wishing my sister a happy birthday when they saw the badges and the happy birthday decor we put in the table where she was sat. I opted for soup of the day which was carrot and butternut squash. The soup was delicious and came with warm bread that tasted homemade! I had the steak and ale pie and as you can see from the pictures of my main, proper portion sizes! This sets a bench mark for other pubs to follow in suite in portion sizes! I was so full after my meal I skipped pudding and opted for a tasty cappuccino! Others in the group had Americano and they offered milk instead of just putting it on the table which is rare nowadays. Service and food were superb! The toilets were spotless and the decor, seats and tables were great, gave a warm, romantic feeling. I will deffo be back and may even have a meal here before xmas! The staff could not do enough for us and were enthusiastic which was great! Can’t wait to come back here and without a doubt the best meal I have had out in a while and is mow in my top 3 places to eat out in! Keep up the great work, and thank you for making my sister’s 21st 1 to remember! On a final note I suspect all the food is homemade and cooked/served to order!

Just the ticket after a 10 mile walk.
The food was excellent, lots of bears, ciders etc and reasonably priced.
We met new the owners whilst we were there, nice chaps and obviously passionate about the place.
Well worth a visit particularly if your hungry....

Hodgson's Chippy
96 Prospect St, LancasterFantastic quality fish and chips. The customer service from the staff is also top quality. I preordered online and intended to pick up my order after work. Unfortunately a crash on the motorway delayed my arrival meaning I exceeded the pick up time hugely. Unprompted and upon arrival, the staff informed me that they would prepare a fresh batch to ensure that the fish was perfect. Quality service from a great local business that places an emphasis on quality food.

Gallico Lounge
Unit 3, 7-17 Market St, LancasterComfy atmosphere, good selection of drinks and enjoyed the food.
Some of the food choices weren't available but the salad I ordered was lovely.
It was good that you could just go and sit where you wanted, although a lot of people seemed to wait to be seated.
Internet was quite bad in here, but as soon as you connect to their WiFi, you can order from your phone.

The Stonewell Tap
8-10 Church St, LancasterAn excellent craft ale bar. The staff are really friendly and know their beer, which isnt the cheapest, but hey, theres a Wetherspoons in Lancaster so if thats what you want....It has quiet corners. The only thing that lets it down is Saturday late afternoon early evening it seems to attract a group of blokes who's conversational style is to SHOUT AT EACH OTHER VERY LOUDLY and some who are clearly so pissed they shouldnt really be served. But a great bar nonetheless.

Pizza Margherita
2 Moor Ln, LancasterPopped in on a Wednesday evening with the family and really enjoyed it. We opted for the 7inch pizzas, which seem a bit small at first but filled us all up nicely. The location is great and the staff were super friendly.

The Herbarium
5, 7 Great John St, LancasterI've eaten at The Herbarium lots of times now and every meal I've had has been delicious. I love their matcha tea too. I'm not fully vegan, but try to eat a plant-based diet 4-5 days a week, and you certainly don't feel you're sacrificing anything in terms of taste, variety or quality at The Herb.
A calming atmosphere and lovely staff too. Well done to the whole team (including the Chefs who probably don't get a shout out often enough) ?
