The Italian Orchard

Always love visiting, the pianist in the lobby was great, food was amazing, I had the Truffle infused ham as my starter and the orange and apricot braised duck leg. Could’ve been the best meal I’ve had. Servers very attentive and always offering more drinks.

Been here 3 times. 1st time food and service was good. 2nd time food was not too bad and service was good 3rd time booked table for 6pm, waited to be seated. 7pm still not seated. Had to call staff over. Then finally seated. But no apology from staff what so ever. Starter arrived - Pate - But was just toast from normal bread popped in a toaster. What a joke!!! Seriously! Lasagne arrived and was nothing but mush. Pizza arrived with hardly anything on it. Head staff have a bad attitude and give the impression that they think they are something special. Over priced, poor service, and stuck up head staff that don't want to cater to couples. Only intetested in large parties. Unable to keep to times that tables are booked for. Had better food and service from smaller restaurants rhan this one, if you can call it that! Will never come back here ever again. Chef - more like a cook with a basic food and hygiene certificate.

Arrived to what I intllally thought was a beautiful place , and we were seated in and asked to order in the lovely bar area which I thought was odd , before being moved into what I'd call the ugly budget lounge. The environment was unwelcoming with far too many clicky circling staff in an unfriendly atmosphere which made.me feel like I wanted to leave and I didn't finish my meal. If you are looking for a special meal then I definitely would not recommend here! For a fantastic Italian meal and restaurant I recommend the millstone at Chorley 😊

Absolutely lovely restaurant. The bar area is spacious and bright and I like that they provide table service. The staff are very attentive and and the food is excellent. I will be making this restaurant a regular venue.

One of the best Italian restaurants I’ve been to! The food is always freshly prepared and absolutely delicious, especially their arrabbiata pasta and garlic bread. This place is a go-to for family outings, offering a wide variety of options, and the staff is always happy to accommodate different dietary preferences since everything is made fresh. I asked for my pasta without meat, and they were more than happy to prepare it just the way I wanted. The staff is consistently kind, and the service is exceptional. The atmosphere is fantastic, it’s like having dinner in a warm, welcoming family environment. I love coming here and always look forward to it. For pasta, garlic bread, and drinks, I paid just over £30, which is an incredible value!

Good, but not good enough to warrant another visit.

Absolutely amazing venue, by far my favourite Italian hidden gem... warm friendly service, excellent, affordsble, high quality food. A "must visit" for all the family. Suited to family meal, celebration meal or date.

Me and my wife visited the Italian Orchard for are 25th wedding Anniversary we have been here before and really enjoyed it so we decided we would go for are Anniversary and we was not disappointed it was fantastic from start to finish the place is brilliant very clean everywhere the staff made you feel welcome from the minute you walked in to leaving the food was brilliant fresh and cooked perfectly and very reasonable after the meal we decided to stay and have a few more drinks at the bar and like everywhere else you was made to feel welcome very professional another reason would be the piano player he seem to make people relax and chill someone walked in with 60th birthday balloons and he changed the music to Happy Birthday to you and that alone made everyone smile and not just at the birthday table we felt relaxed while we was having a drink this is due to how you where made to feel welcome and the staff at the bar talked to you while you was ordering drinks all the staff was like that definitely will be going again and its definitely worth a visit if you want a chilled, friendly night out with great food and drink and great service and friendly staff thank you to everyone there that made are night that extra special especially one member of staff behind the bar he will know who I mean and thank you for the drinks it meant a lot

Really nice place. Very clean. Food was good. Nobody had anything bad to say out of our group of 8. Kind of in the middle of no where with not much to do nearby but it was still busy. Would definitely return.

This place is outstanding in every way. The food and overall experience are truly enjoyable. The staff is attentive and eager to help. 10/10.

I usually love it here but when I visited with some friends on Thursday evening the service was so overbearing it was heard to have a conversation. We were asked twice during our starters if everything was ok, and 3 times during our main. I get the importance of courtesy checking but 3 times in one course by 3 different people becomes a nuisance and actually starts to impact your enjoyment. The service was quick but it did mean we breezed through 2 courses and wanted some time to chat before deserts, x5 times we were asked if we wanted any deserts, despite me saying can we have 20mins please and we will let you know. After the 5th time I said do you need the table back as I’m starting to get the impression you want us gone, they assured me this wasn’t the case (which I’d assumed already as there was free tables around) but they were just doing their job. I’ll be honest it was frustrating for the 3 of us as it felt really disruptive and whilst I love good service there is a balance which felt very wrong this time.

Great lunch, food was excellent and plenty of choice to suit anyones taste.

Service and wine was good. The food, however, was very disappointing, lacked flavour and didn’t scream quality. Definitely not worth the price. We left early and went to Amico Mio for dessert to avoid further disappointment.
