The 30 Best Local eatery in Ashton-under-lyne

“Went for the first time with a group of 10. Service was excellent. The staff were so accommodating and friendly. We weren't rushed in the slightest and the quality of the food was excellent. The chicken pakora starter was probably the best I've ever had. We sat in their bar area afterwards and had some more drinks. The coffee with cream and sugar was lovely. Would definitely come back here.”

“Had the movie night box and it was amazing. Loads of food, burgers were so tasty. Loved the cheese sauce. Came on time, friendly service 100% recommend. Great value for money.”

“Great little buttie van top food and lovely staff”

“Fabulous gym. I started 6 years ago when my son was in a ninjas class to fill the time, I go 3-4 times a week now and it’s been amazing for my fitness and energy. I’ll be going for black belt at my next grading! It’s totally inclusive, everyone is encouraged to reach their best regardless of age, fitness level etc. Lots of different classes to choose from in timetable and great facilities. Top class coaches who invest in all students. My daughter goes now as well and she loves it. Welcoming, respectful culture. Very lucky to have this place round the corner. I’d recommend it to anyone.”

“Intimate little restaurant serving fabulous food, all cooked on order by owner and Chef, Mandy. The paella is the best I have ever tasted but don't forget to check the specials board as well. When everything is so good it's ideal that it's tapas, perfect for sharing with family and friends. Menu prices are very reasonable and as it's BYOB, you save money bringing your own alcoholic drinks. (Edit ; they charge that small an amount for corkage i never even noticed until they replied to this review) Friendly, attentive staff in a lovely relaxed atmosphere complete the picture, making this one of my favourite places to bring the people that I love. x”

“Just been here this evening for the first time to celebrate my daughter’s 21st-family of 10. From the minute we walked in, we were warmly welcomed. The staff are so smiley and friendly, the place has a great atmosphere, and the food and presentation was faultless. Nicest place we’ve visited for a long time, thank you!”

“Love this place. Proper full English breakfasts, afternoon teas. When you’re finished, take home fabulous cakes, buns and pastries. We’ve been many times. Great place. Went for ABBA night last night, had a great time. Loved it.”

“Very clean , very helpful the beef And tomato We have just collected was absolutely Delic. Ious”

“We have only ever had the take aways when we want to treat ourselves. We have lived in Saddleworth almost 8 years now and we have really struggled to find a decent Indian restaurant, it has always been hit and miss. There was never any consistency, sometimes good, sometimes bad…HOWEVER I think this is by far our favourite place! We keep going back! The poppadoms are always amazing, every single time, not full of oil and greasy tasting, their Lime Pickle is gorgeous and the food is delicious. The lamb chops are a favourite and you can tell there is no cheat, they have been properly marinating in the delicious spices. The tandoori spices must be a family secret, to die for. Most definitely recommend if you want a genuine taste of India. And it is a plus there is minimal plastic waste:)”

“I highly recommend this place for those who eat vegetarian or vegan. The food is delicious, especially the masala dosa, chana masala and poppadoms, and chutney tray. Also, the dessert carrot halwa with ice cream. The staff were friendly, and the dining area as well as the deli area was very impressive. I would come to visit again soon.”

“What a treat of a cafe to find in Ashton . Proper home made tater hash served with bread and butter was delicious! Lovely atmosphere and great staff !”

“Lovely food great customer service. This restaurant never disappoints.”

“Just been to heroes of Waterloo for lunch- 5 adults.We had a table in the restaurant. The choice of food was extensive and comparably priced. The portions were very good, well cooked and presented. The food was of good quality. The service was good, flowed well, not long periods of waiting and at the same time not rushed. Surroundings well maintained and clean Good atmosphere. All were happyand would come back”

“only popped in for salt and pepper chips but service was fast & me and my friends all thought the food was amazing- they don't take card but that's not an issue as there's an ATM just down the street. Friend said the salt and pepper chips were better than at Wings (they were)”

“⭐ One Love Kitchen – A True Gem in Ashton ⭐ I’ve just had one of the best meals I’ve ever tasted from One Love Kitchen. The fish is absolutely incredible — I ordered it half an hour in advance so they could prepare it fresh, and it was worth every minute. A perfect fillet, no bones, beautifully seasoned, and cooked with real love. I added the jerk sauce, and honestly, it complements the fish so well… rich, warm, and full of flavour. The staff are outstanding too — decades of experience in Jamaican cooking, and you can taste that wisdom in every bite. They treat you like family the moment you walk in. This place has become my go-to for Jamaican food in Ashton. If you haven’t tried it yet, you’re missing out. One Love. Unity in a time of division.”

“We arrived at Bean & Bun just as they were closing, but the staff were very welcoming and accommodating; we didn’t feel rushed. We had a nice meal that was made fresh, and to our tastes. Food and drinks were good value for money. The friendly staff made us feel relaxed and made our visit very enjoyable, thank you.”

“I had the most incredible dining experience at The Roaches Lock on Sunday! The food was absolutely delicious. The service was outstanding throughout the meal. The waitress kept checking in with us to see if we required more drinks or needed anything else. I can't wait to come back and try more items from their menu. Definitely a new favourite restaurant for me and my family!”

“Fantastic starter and main friendly staff would recommend not had a bad meal”

“Very polite and kind lady. Very good food and it doesn't cost a bomb like most takeaways. Sues is a must try!”

“Called in for a muffin and a coffee, Blueberry muffin was lovely. Very clean inside. Little overpriced and staff could have been a bit more enthusiastic.”

“Been twice recently, once for breakfast once for a carvery. Both time the food was fantastic, hot, fresh and tasty. The chef came over both times making sure everything was OK and had a chat when we had finished our meals, bar staff are lovely and welcoming too. Can't wait to come back for the cheese and onion pie as it looks mega”

“I don't know why, but I've always thought this place would be a bit of a dive and so in the 30 years I've lived here, I've never been in. I'm sorry! However, as Stacked are now cooking here, we gave it a go. The bar staff were lovely and drinks were a lot cheaper than I've paid at other places which was a bonus. The guy on the bar also came over to make sure we understood the ordering process for Stacked which was good of him. Stacked was, as always, delicious and I'll review them separately. The only thing I will say, is that if you think Stacked is good when it's delivered, get down to the Prince of Orange and try it fresh!”

“Excellent fast food takeaway. Wide range of food, pizza, kebab, chicken etc. Polite and knowledgeable staff,very clean environment with some seating available.”

“Great greasy spoon and. Not too greasy neither. Staff really friendly”

“A long standing establishment, serving high quality and extremely tasty dishes. The lamb kahari with a dash of lemon and coriander is a must for any curry enthusiasts! I've never been dissapointed with any of the food from here and it's very good value for money, you get plenty for your buck!”

“Amazing kebabs, tasty curry Highly recommended”

“After seeing so many people recommend this place on Facebook I had to give it a try and wow the egg fried rice flavourful not like most places iv tried countless places an there isn't many that do a good egg fried rice and also spare ribs with ok sauce was delicious proper ribs not them mini wing looking things some places do an the ok sauce was well nice it's not a thick red colour it's light looking but taste so good not too much vinegar smell or taste it was more on the sweet side like honey I highly recommend this place I'll be back to try more”
