Great place to visit as a breakfast venue - served up to 11:45 before the Bistro menu kicks in. The smashed avocado on a bagel and a pot of tea was spot on for a mid morning snack. Friendly, efficient staff on hand to assist and generally chat to. Note the irregular opening times earlier in the week.
Our first visit ( sat eve) and the restaurant was busy at 7.45 and probably full before we left, lots of praise for the waiter very professional, pleasant and overworked me thinks, we were seated close too the window and was feeling a chill for a while until some heating came on. the menu isn't huge but my partner and I ordered prawn cocktail starters , the beef cutlet and peri peri chicken for mains and my partner had a very small desert ( a type of cheesecake) after our starter arrived there was quite a wait for the main's to arrive but it was a busy evening.... I've given 3 stars for my chicken dish as it was basically a seasoning shake/ rub on the skin and none of the flavoring had reached the chicken below ( which was perfectly cooked ) the fries were tasty but I was basically eating just 'chicken & chips' My partners beef was tender ( but small as was the prawn cocktails ) and she enjoyed it alongside the rustic wedges ( but no vegatable's with either dish) I had a small bottle of lager and 2 glasses of rose wine for the lady and the bill includes an unexpected 8% service charge which didn't impress me to be honest so our bill was £92.50, I'm sure many people would be fine with that but I found it a tad over the top for the food we had.....
Back in my home town for a short visit, finally had the opportunity to try out Pinion for a quick bite at lunch. Dropped in on spec and was fortunate enough as a lone diner to have a table free, was immediately at ease due to the super friendly but also professional service. Chose to go straight for the main and had a butter roasted pork rib eye, gambling that it wouldn't be overcooked and dry but needn't have worried it was succullent and tasty, one of the best pieces of pork I'd had for some time. Accompanied with a light hash brown, perfectly cooked poached egg on top and a zingy pineapple and chilli chutney, I accompanied it with a side of seasonally spiced red cabbage which finished it all off perfectly. Overall more than lived up to what I'd hoped Gary and the team would deliver - will be bringing my wife back next time!
Went to Pinion today and ordered the pre-theatre menu. Can’t fault any part of the experience. Food was delicious, fresh and served quick (but not too quick). The real stars of Pinion though were the serving staff who made us feel so welcome. We’ll definitely be back.
Best lunch for a Friday is a tasty fish and chips! Enjoyed the beetroot salad as the starter too. Great place with great atmosphere and super friendly staff
Came here as a birthday present for my partner and we only wish we had paid a visit sooner!! The food was piping hot and so tasty!! Great service and a lovely atmosphere…definitely coming back for another visit!!

Very disappointed, was really looking forward to going here, but for a Friday night there was no atmosphere in there at all, OK 6pm is farely early but still only 4 tables filled. The food tasted lovely, presentation was amazing, but there was too much for such rich food. In my opinion this place would do alot better and attract more custom if they reduced the portions and in turn reduce the high prices, as for the area it is really high and I think unfortunately they are out pricing themselves. Its not town its Prescot. Also unfortunately because of this you are not faced with a good view from the window, I would put a display of some kind to cover the horrible view. Regardless of this, the staff where faultless, in fact they where brilliant.
