We booked the private dining room for our wedding day. The service was excellent as was the food. Between 15 of us we must of ordered most of the menu and not one person had a single issue. Service was prompt and everyone was served together. I three distinct sittings. We were allowed early access to the venue to set up our room. The night before and clear it the morning after which was incredibly helpful. We also had 4 young children with us. We asked for a separate play table for them which was accommodated and kept the children happy. There was also a big tv in the room so we could stream tv as the kids got bored. We had a lovely day and a lovely meal after our wedding. Couldn't have asked for a better venue.

What a wonderful experience! It was relaxed, atmosphere was pleasant and it was busy. The staff can’t do enough to cater for parents with young children, they gave her lots of attention and colouring in on arrival which to us means a lot as it makes your experience so much more enjoyable! The food was outstanding, the arancini was gorgeous, small portion but enough. The rack of lamb was wonderful, we ordered sides with it, which wasn’t possibly needed but the crushed truffled potatoes weren’t to be missed! The Shepherds pie was a good portion with lots of lamb. The deserts were lovely. Service was always with a smile and anything you asked they couldn’t do enough to help or sort for you asap. Will definitely be returning! Special thanks to Clara, Sophia and Mo !

CHRISTMAS DAY AT EWE I celebrated Christmas with my family at Ewe for my first ever Christmas dinner out, and it was perfect! The team welcomed us warmly, with exceptional service throughout our visit. The venue looked magical, fully decked with festive decor and a stunning Christmas tree. The food was nothing short of amazing. From the fresh prawn cocktail and perfectly prepared beetroot carpaccio to a juicy turkey dinner served with generous portions, every bite impressed. Desserts were an absolute dream, with my chocolate and cherry delice being the perfect sweet finale, creamy and rich. With Santa hats, crackers, and coffee served with homemade mince pies, the festive touches were endless. We rounded out our day sipping Prosecco by the tree after our meal, which was everything I could’ve hoped for. Thank Ewe, for making our Christmas so unforgettable!

First time visiting since they've opened, and can imagine why they're always fully booked... Went for lunch, and from the moment we walked in, the staff were brilliant. Friendly, attentive, accommodating, apologetic (some items not available or delayed), and quick. The food was delicious and presented well. The hummus was different and big enough for two. The beef wellington was excellent. The cocktails were worth the trip in themselves. I recommend the Smoking Tractor. That smokey flavour lasts from the first sip to the last, and the 24 Carrot Magic was deliciously fresh. Can't wait to go again.

Ewe Restaurant is a gorgeous dog friendly restaurant just outside Bolton and it has a lovely selection of small/large plates to suit everyone. We opted for a tapas style lunch and ordered lots of small plates with my favourite being the Black Truffle arancini the Cherry and Dark chocolate fondant was delicious too! The decor is lovely and modern and the staff were extremely welcoming and friendly! We will definitely be back to try the evening menu sometime soon!

Superb restaurant, food was beautiful and good size serving, I could eat the lamb shank every time and the gravy and yorkies were another level. It’s a lovely atmosphere and the decor is spot on. Great service, quick but not too quick and reasonable prices.

Just had a lovely meal at Ewe Restaurant. You are hit immediately by the lovely decor and relaxed atmosphere helped by the live music which was the perfect accompaniment. Loud enough so you could hear and appreciate but not too loud so that you cant hold a conversation. The food was absolutely delicious with the spaghetti Ariabatta having real taste and flavour provided by the chilli’s and the Pork Belly Sunday Dinner outstanding. The was was also delicious. The restaurant was busy and had a good atmosphere and I would describe the service as outstanding. All in all a brilliant first visit and will have no hesitation in coming back or recommending to anyone else. A real find.

The food is good. We have been coming here for our special dates for over a year. After we got married we came here with our immediate family for a meal. And it was an obvious choice for our anniversary. The staff are great and it's a nice atmosphere.
