Retreat - Bolton

Cosy restaurant located in Bolton neighborhood. There is both inside and outside seating available. Good selection of dishes from menu and served portions are generous. They also have wide variety of drinks including cocktails. Everything was very good and would even say tasted delicious. Highly recommend.

We booked a table here on New Year's Day for four adults and a baby.
We had good service, and the food was tasty. The deserts are on the small size, and overall, it is a bit pricey.
We were given a booth and felt relaxed.
The waiter was friendly and obliging.

We went for a 18th birthday meal. As there were quite a few of us we sent through meal choices a week before. All confirmed by the restaurant.

They missed 4 starters, they came after people's main meals. They then missed 4 main meals. I spent so much time trying to sort out their mistake, my meal had gone cold and had to be replaced. It then took 50 minutes to get an ice ream desert.

The only saving grace was the food we delicious. But they ruined a special occasion. It was my daughters 18th, and I spent more time waiting on that the staff did!

Visited 29/04/2024, at lunch time parking was available in the limited spots at front of the building. Go in and there is the restaurant part to the right as you go in. The seabass on the potato dauphinois and green beans was very tasty, the side of salt and pepper chips was also nice. Food came quickly and both the staff looking after the group were very attentive and friendly.

Love coming here for an evening meal with my wife.

Also love the individual pods on offer (however I had pre booked one well in advance, and even double checked the night before) only to find on arrival we had been moved into and outside space. Luckily the lady greeting quickly changed this for us and apologised.

Recent menu change is good but for me the old one had much better offerings but I suppose you have to change things up to keep people retuning.

Great place. Shame my friend was so drunk and out of sorts during our visit. Otherwise, would really have enjoyed the great ambience this place offers. I've dined in some of the finest eateries in London and for a place outside of London, it was on a par. Lovely waitress and barman. Couldn't fault their diligence.

It's autumn and we have a cold night out here. Fabulous food and drinks, we do enjoy the night if it's warmer. 😊 Waitress are very polite and we enjoy their service.

My Mum and Dad booked for 9 of us New Years Day. We were booked for a table at 3:00pm. The service was slow, we ordered some drinks, which took ages to be served at our table. We ordered some starters, main meals and deserts. Each course took ages to be served at the table. The waiters and waitresses were all very young, which we got, I waited tables when I was at college. The problem was, they didn’t appear to be listening to what each person ordered, so there was quite a mix up when the food finally started to arrive at the table. Wrong types of fries were brought, then when this was pointed out it took another age to bring the correct order, meaning the rest of the food was going cold. My granddaughter has severe food allergies and we were nervous that the wrong items weren’t brought for her and that this might cause an allergic reaction. My granddaughter is only 21 months old and her food was brought last, she was very patient all in all we were in the restaurant for 3 1/2 hours due to the slow service and wrong orders being brought. The bill came to over £300, £27 of which was a very cheeky service charge!! The food was not a very good standard, the deserts were 3 inch squares at a very expensive £8.00 + each. All in all it was not a very good start to the New Years! We won’t be rushing back there, that’s for sure. Very poor service and quality.
