Think of eating places attached to fish and chip shops and one usually thinks of a couple of battered formica tables at the back of the takeaway queuing area.
This place is all carpets, potted ferns, mirrors, chandeliers and even a grand piano. More like a grand hotel than a chippy.
The quality of the fish and chips is beyond doubt - I can only second all the endorsements below. This visit was to check out their breakfasts.
The traditional English. It's OK, but a bit insubstantial. A fried egg, 2 streaky rashers, a sausage, half tomato, beans in a little pot, a round of toast with butter. The tea comes in a pot with a jug of hot water to top it up - another plus point.
No real complaints and I will certainly be back for the fish and chips next time I pass by.

Once again Tasso and his fantastic staff gave us a wonderful meal in their beautiful restaurant with reasonable prices and fish & chips to die for.
The atmosphere, cleanliness, staff and food all excellent. Every time we come here we are yet again amazed by the efficiency of the staff, and how wonderful the food is.
Our group had some special requirements today - a few gluten free, a few fussy eaters and a working Guide Dog - no problem for the Olympus. There quite literally is no room for improvement. Don’t change!!
Thanks again, see you again VERY soon. Can’t wait!

Good food, excellent service, and the grand piano playing in the background, what more could you want for a Friday night Chippy Tea.

Myself and wife Sue enjoyed the fish and chips meal in the Olympus. The meal for two with drinks cost about £17 and was very filling. We will go back soon.

Arrived in Bolton at lunchtime after a harrowing journey from the airport. A good lunch was what was needed but a great lunch was what we got. I had haddock chips and peas and my wife had pudding and chips. They were both top class with the usual high class service. Just the job.

Was a little unsure at Preston to come back via Wigan or Bolton and I thought of Olympus
Obviously it had to be Bolton

I ordered Haddock
I had made the right choice
Excellent Great team effort

Have passed this many times but have never bothered going in as thought it was just a chippy with a bit of an eat in section. However was with my canadian cousin who was on a mission to find the best fish and chips on his recent visit here. When I entered I realised it was actually a truly lovely posh little restaurant with a bar! Never been to a chippy with a bar before :-) ! The decor and surroundings lovely and really large place! The food was absoulutely lovely, you could even choose different sized fish! So fish and chips and wine all highly recommended my cousin wouldnt stop talking about the place. The staff were really lovely, the manager even taking the time to come sit with us anc answer all manner of questions from my cousin. Really lovely place. Will defo return and so the saying goes never judge a book! Fab!

Really nice old school fish & chips restaurant. The fish & chip wear not the best I have ever had but they wear nice, served fast and wear hot.
What really impresses with this place is the service, it really is first class. Happy friendly staff and it felt 100% genuine can not remember the last time I was made to feel so welcome in a restaurant.
They also had pianist playing which gives the place a great and welcoming atmosphere.
