If you are ever in Bolton you need to visit Olympus! The staff are so friendly and accommodating. This restaurant is not your ordinary fish and chips experance! They have someone playing a piano to bring the mood to a level of calm, the menu offers are to cater everyone's needs. Which includes a 'small fish and six chips', you literally get six chips. Perfect for the elderly who do not eat alot. And for pudding if your an ice cream fan, many different flavours with real chunks of the flavour throughout! Well worth the visit.

On an infrequent visit to Bolton I was horrified at the town centre. The only way I could describe it is 'a dump'. How wonderful that the Olympus Restaurant has survived. It's a haven of old fashioned service, happiness and good food. I used to go in when Tasos was a young man, rushing to open the door for his customers to come in and go out. Luckily he still has the energy to do it. It was wonderful to watch all the staff working together doing whatever is needed.

Very good food but it is very expensive to buy and sit in at a table and it's always packed out.

Wonderful meeting place. And far more to offer than just fish and chips. just a pity that you have to go to the counter to order your meal.

Sooooo expensive. Had small chip portion - still cost nearly a fiver. Canned drinks 2.45 whaat!!! Had lager instead . I get annoyed by soft drinks being marked up so much. Tea equals one teabag but lots of hot water and fussy little jugs. At the end of the day, you’re paying 3-45 for a teabag - luckily my wife always has spares. Toasted teacake - one miniature pat of butter - er…don’t think so. To do her credit the girl brought an extra two pats. If the manager found out she’d be for it. This place hates to be generous with portions. Profit is king.

That said, IMO, the chips are the best in Lancashire, and people who say otherwise need their tastebuds looking at. The surroundings are fabulous, everywhere is clean and luxurious.

But the prices go against the grain for a tight Northerner like me. I’m certainly not forking out for a whole meal there - I’m not the Duke of Westminster.

We visited for the first time today and found everything first class. We has heard favourable reports about the place and would now endorse this. The food was excellent and the portion we had was enormous! The service was brilliant and herecI must mention Tyler, who greeted us and showed us to our table. He gave us somewhere that was convenient for parking my mobility scooter and generally has the most perfect attitude to customer service. He is warm and friendly and definitely made our visit even better. Thank you Tyler, keep it up!

Excellent place to eat best fish and chips I have ever had, went with a coach party of 43 people we were all served together, I don't know how they did it and everyone was very happy with the service. The owner came round to every table to check all was OK and he kept coming round checking on everything. It was Friday the 13th but no mishaps just a fantastic meal and fantastic service
