"Where do I start....I was blown away by the four course vegan plant based menu priced at £12 the catering students at Blackburn College, created, cooked and served at Scholars. I and my husband went for lunch and the whole experience far exceeded our expectations, the food was amazing, beautifully presented, cooked, seasoned and was an absolute delight to eat. This is accomplished, confident cooking and yet the chefs are only aged 16 to 19 and their talents put to shame many of the places I have dined, where the vegan food has been a token gesture, an after thought of just putting any old rubbish on the plate. Scholars vegan food was well thought out, creative, exciting and cooked with passion. These are our chefs of the future, how lucky are we. I had a chat with student chefs Imogen and Gem (who made our mushroom dish dessert respectively) who were so enthusiastic about their cooking. The front of house team were equally as good, serving the dishes and making sure we had drinks etc and checking if we liked the food. Credit is due to their mentor Head Chef Dave and Restaurant Manager Karen for introducing a vegan plant based menu. I cannot wait to go back."

"9 of us had just a meal here, absolutely brilliant, staff can not be enough for them and so friendly, the restaurant is nice and clean and spacious sitting places so that you did not sit on each other. eating is the best thing I cost in a very long time and they will certainly get a good portion if they can't make it, all they can take it home, they also do takeaways. there were no complaints from our party and at the end we got lutcher and a basil potion."

"On Friday, June 3rd, my family gathered at the Bony Inn for a meal. We had family members traveling from Leeds and Chester, so we chose this restaurant as a meeting point. We had a table reserved for 13/14 people and were required to pay £10 per person in advance. We arrived on time, ordered drinks at the bar, and paid separately to make splitting the bill easier. I ordered the chicken platter, which was tasty but disappointingly small for the price. For my main course, I had the fish and chips, which was average and not very warm. My wife had the chicken Kiev, which was dry and lacked the garlic butter we had enjoyed in the past. The chocolate dessert was the highlight of the meal. When it came time to split the bill, we were told to pay the full amount individually and the excess would be refunded to the original payment method within a few days. Despite some issues, the server was helpful and friendly. Overall, I hope this was just a one-off experience and I will continue to enjoy decent food at the Bony Inn in the future."
