Favoured by many for its melt-in-your-mouth texture, mild beef flavour and ability to pair beautifully with delicate seafood and sauces, a filet is one of the most popular cuts of beef you can find.

Came in this evening to try out the winter menu. First class service from start to finish. We ordered the fish, chips & mushy peas & the CH Big Mac & sweet potato fries. Cooked to perfection and arrived promptly. The chefs here are certainly a credit to the restaurant and nothing was too much trouble for our waitress.read more

We had a voucher from groupon as we went last year and although service was poor then the food was good. This time wish we had not bothered. Food was horrible service none existent. The courthouse is run on a shoe string of staff very young and very inexperienced. They cook all food in the same fryer so a fish allergy means no chips for me . The new menu is extensive but poor it over promises and under delivers We won’t be returning it was not even worth the price we paid on groupon. So don’t waste your money here .read more

We like a lot to go out. Last night we arrived in this superb place which friends recommended to us. We passed a beautiful evening there with fine food and a courteous team and a distinguished chef. We put this place in our phone list and we shall no doubt visit again soon. We warmly recommend.read more

Nice, good staff who are very attentive. Wife had a great burger. I had the anti pasta plate, problem was the meats were cut far too thick. ½ inch thick chorizo tasted great but couldn't eat it the ham need work also. O and clean the bogs.read more

Googled good lunch spots in Bolton for a spur of the moment trip and we chose the Courthouse. Great decision - delicious food, great portions sizes and wonderful staff and service. Nice, chilled out atmosphere - perfect for a Sunday afternoon chill. Highly recommend the chilli cheese fries - best I've ever had!read more

This place is really trying on paper to be a cool place to eat and drink, but there are a few things to improve, IMHO as a former food service worker. First - the check back - they didn't check after delivering food of everything was ok. The food was nicely presented but the Cajun wrap with unadvertised sweetcorn was a little dry and over-cooked and the sweetcorn just ruined it for me (sorry- personal choice but weird to have on a wrap!) The chips were also slightly undercooked which was a shame as they looked nice! Also just little things weren't thoughtful enough like milk from an espresso cup with no spout and tea on a tiny saucer (where does the teabag fit?!) - hopefully these things can be fixed as I would really like this place to succeed!read more

Great food, and decent prices. The only reason I've not given it five stars is because one of the tables was super loud and disturbing everyone else. I would have expected the staff to have noticed this and told them to be respectful of other dinersread more

Nice building. Atmosphere and outdoor seating. There is a wide variety of gin behind the bar as per the trend these days and a decent selection of lagers etc. service wasn't great but it was a bank holiday and think the staff may have been recovering from the days before. Drinks could be a bit cheaper aswellread more

Lacking atmosphere, staff were lovely though but the food left a lot to be desired, probably won't go there again.

Service is very slow even when it's not busy. They seemed to take it very slow because we had a party of 8 so we would order more drinks. We went to the bar for drinks and the girl behind the bar could not serve us because the girl said the bar attendant had gone away. Food was nothing special just mediocre. We didn't even get a complimentary drink after spending £300. We won't be going back again.. 😢😢read more

I recently visited here with friends and family. I love my food and am very critical of food i receive from restaurant.
let me start by saying we where welcoming and seated in a polite and timely manner.
The waitress took our drinks order 5 min from seating. drinks arrived quick and i must say there variety of wine,gin and cocktails is amazing and pricing is great.
our starters came out fairly quick they where fantastic normally i never shut up but this food kept me quiet.
i would say the starters where so good that when you look up and see family and friends taste there food they look like they just tasted a slice of paradise.
The mains i ordered lamb shank it arrived with a spoon i thought for the juices to pour over my lamb shank but it was that soft and tender i could just touch it with my spoon and the meat would slide off.
Presentation was great served on black plates and slate gives the food a unique and euphoric place on the plate.
I did not have desert but i could see lots of people around me having great looking deserts.
I did have a few gorgeous gins they have a vast variety of gins from around the world.
The staff are well trained in making cocktails and I found the best thing is they talk to you while they make your drink not just look down and leave you standing there.
It recently went under a massive refurbishment and I like the new upmarket look and the warmth of the atmosphere is fantastic.
I have reviewed alot of places and you guys have done great please go here if you want to be treated to the best bar and restaurant in Bolton.
