Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Superb, the food was full of flavour and great value - would highly recommend the lunchtime grazer deal to build your own platter.

We are here today and it was exceptional. We had six of the 3 for £15 items on a platter with chips and coleslaw. The sauces are amazing so we wanted to try the restaurant and it didn’t disappoint. Our table was ready with high...chair as per our booking, our host was informative and the food was delightful. We had dried meats, chicken strips and ribs and nothing disappointed.More

Amazing food as always, fantastic new menu it was hard to choose but of course will be back to try it ALL 😋 I went for the pulled pork dirty fries…heavenly!! I have 2 fussy girls but they both gave a big thumbs up on...their chicken goujons & cheeseburger! Colouring to keep little ones occupied. As a small family run restaurant it gets busy very quickly but staff are super friendly and attentive, a big shout out to an extra helper from a mini Chorley too!

We love the food at Chorley’s. We first visited in the autumn last year and have now been 4 times so far. The bunny chow is my favourite, although I have now witnessed and had severe food envy for the ribs- which my husband had....I will be ordering them next time! The Melktart dessert is my ultimate favourite. 10/10 every time. Great and clear, prompt attentive service every time we’ve been.More

Yet another fantastic meal at Chorley’s. Been coming since 2016 (if our memory is right!) and the standards are still just as high. The meat is cooked perfectly. We always order a platter and everything falls off the bone. Dirty fries were a great addition...to the menu, they're brilliant. I also recommend the corn fritters, I could eat about 10 at a time, they're like a drug lol. Great, friendly staff, can't recommend here enough.More
