The Farmer's Arms - Bolton

I visited this restaurant on Thursday after work and noticed that there were many new customers who were very friendly. They were offering free homemade Chicken Curry with Rice and Garlic Bread with the only requirement being a donation. The food was delicious and the staff were also very nice. I would recommend stopping by for a visit.

My husband and I went to this restaurant for lunch. Unfortunately, compared to our previous visits, the place seemed neglected. The tables were sticky and there was a loud group in the pool room playing rap music with a lot of swearing, despite the fact that the restaurant markets itself as family-friendly. The food was basic and cheap, lacking in quality and flavor. I ordered the homemade steak and kidney pie, which had very little steak and mostly watery gravy. The chips were clearly frozen and cheap. We were disappointed to learn that the restaurant had changed ownership, and we will not be returning.

Even though it has a new name, this restaurant still offers a carvery, and during the summer they have a salad bar for only £4.95 with all you can eat options. The food is delicious and the staff are very friendly. I will definitely visit again.

Friendly staff. Visited after a long walk with the kids and dog. Unfortunately they have one option is you are a vegetarian....chips or an egg sandwich. Has things on the menu like burgers, shepherds pie, lasagna. Kids had a cheese burger, all enjoyed it and came with a fresh little side salad. The lack of a vegi option means it's not the best for us so wouldn't return to eat but a good little pub with our door seating.

Lovely food. Made to feel welcome. Staff friendly. Looking forward to the beer fest on Saturday. It's a great place to go for lunch.
