Always go to one of the following for Saturday lunch on matchdays:-

Si! - I suppose it's more of a cafe than a restaurant but they do great cappucchinos and ciabattas. It's always full when I go in, so they must be doing something right.

Accrington Pride - An absolute gem! Traditional English food par excellence. Toad In The Hall to die for! But why is there never anybody in?

The Hapton Inn is really good food and plenty of it but the Beers not so good I think the last time he cleaned his pipes Pontius was a pilot.

just been for a meal at the wellsprings we had mexican, it was delicious i highly recommend it, tonight it had 2 meals for the price of one, not bad at all. yes the main courses start at £9-95 per person but at the offer they had on it was well worth it, mind you if there is only a couple of you going the price not bad, yes i would go again.

If anyone has a grievance with the way food is prepared or its quality whilst they cannot leave without paying they are entitled to reduce the bill to an amount that they feel is fair, either that or withold the service charge. If this is included ask for it to be deducted.

This works both ways with restaurants entitled to deduct an inconvenience charge from your card if you fail to show. That is why many ask for caed details when you book a table.

I for one cannot think of any outstanding places in the Accrington area to eat out. Most provide simple food that most of the time could be rustled up in your own kitchen in minutes flat for half the price. Still saves on washing up i guess!

Being a qualified chef I could knock up pretty much anything that you can get in a restaurant( and do most nights for tea). A good restaurant serves quality produce, well cooked in pleasant surroundings. Thats it, no magic. There is nothing wrong with eating 'traditional' dishes. I eat out regularly and can honestly say I have had very good meals in numerous restaurants in the local area. I've also eaten in some very 'posh' restaurants with famous chefs and been disappointed. I suggest you get out there and try some of the places around the East Lancs area. You may be surprised.

[QUOTE=entwisi]Callums would be really nice if he wasn't there. The food is good but he is just so annoying.

Read in the Observer Callums has closed suddenly this week.
