As regular customers of the Olympus fish & chips Restaurant we were in town early one morning so we thought we would try a spot of breakfast. What a disappointment ! we normally go there for lunch which is always top class what a pity they don't put as much effort into the breakfast.
I ordered a full breakfast and received 1 egg,1 piece of bacon and 1 sausage . the quality of the produce was poor especially the sausage witch was one of the cheapest load of rubbish sausage I have ever had (and I have had a few over my 68 tears) They need to invest in organic produce and I am sure people would be happy to pay a little extra for the increase in quality. I will try the breakfast again in the future just to see if there is any improvement .
So come on Olympus pull your sock up and get the same quality on your breakfast as your lunch is.

Been recommended to this restaurant, a bit disappointed as I had high expectation after hearing so much good feedback about the place. I would say it is only average but the staff is very friendly.

Having heard how good the Olympus was from various people , decided to visit with my 4 yr old granddaughter on a Friday lunchtime. We were greeted at the door and promptly shown to a table. Menus given straight away and advised to order at the counter when ready . Within 5 mins of ordering our lunches were on the table. I had the fish ,chips and mushy peas which also on included a pot of tea , hot water and a slice of bread. My granddaughter had the children's sausage and chips which came in a box + little gift and a carton of juice. Also a plate if the child didn't want to eat from the box.All the food was hot and delicious and there was ample . All this for £13.15. I have paid almost as much for just fish + chips for 2 at my local chippy !.Staff were very welcoming and helpful, restaurant light and airy with plenty room between tables , and the toilets were spotless. Don't know what some grumblers expect, but I will certainly come again when next in Bolton.

Visited The Olympus Fish & Chip Restaurant with an elderly lady who lives in a Care Home.
We have been regular visitors over the past few years and always enjoy our lunch at 'The Olympus'. Not only does it have easy access for her wheelchair and disabled facilities, the staff make her feel very special by treating her with dignity and respect - something which is important to all of us!
Many thanks to Tasos and all his wonderful staff - you really are a cut above everyone else in the business.

This place always puts a smile on my face. The staff are overwhelmingly friendly and polite. Very professional. Started going there with my man and now I take the whole family. Very classy place. The piano playing is such a breath of fresh air. The food is always cooked fresh and very good portions. Always a pleasure to visit.

Visited Bolton Market and went near by for what I thought would be a run of the mill chippy lunch. How wrong can you be the place is most definatly an up market fish restaurant. We went on a Tuesday afternoon and it turned out that a resident trio play each Tuesday never seen that in a chippy before the food itself was perfect lovely white flaky cod mushy peas and first class chips.Only drawback - although I couldn't possibly mark such a good place down - is that you have to queue like a chip shop. This is a pain if you want a sweet for example as the ques are long a sign of good food and music. Don't know if or when I will be back in Bolton but if I am I will return to Olympus and the food of the gods (chippy version of ambrosia)

We had the best fish and chips ever with the friendliest and most thoughtful service. The whole of the staff without exception are attentive patient and welcoming to old and young alike. Spotlessly clean excellent décor and the added bonus of a grand piano playing in the background.

We have been coming to Olympus for almost 20 years (& not a pensioner)
It is quality food, quality service, quality staff
It's not a "chippy" it's a quality dining experience
You get what you pay for
No where in Bolton can compete on food quality or service

We were visiting Bolton on business and just fancied some fish and chips. Saw this fish restaurant had an award so thought we would try it.
We both had the "pensioner special"fish and chips. It came out on a very small plate with just the smallest fish and about half a dozen chips. NO PEAS!!
Just because we are over 60, does that mean you have no appetite? or eat like a bird?
What we had was tasty, just not enough of it.

Wanted a sit down fish and chips and this was my dads idea to go. He's been on numerous occasions and has always rated it highly. And yet again it didn't disappoint.
I had fish, chips, peas, bread and coffee while my dad had the same put with a pudding instead of fish.
Both meals were hot and fresh and served very quickly. Very nice fish with the right amount of batter. Quite small portion size for the price but was enough for a lunch, I would be more disappointed if that was the same size for tea. However it was a very nice lunch and nice fresh food. I would go back if I'm around and after a chippy.

Fish & chips at its best, good prices, specials usually available, visited a few times when shopping in Bolton. Would recommend if visiting Bolton, situ next to the indoor market and present bus station. New bus station is being built across the road, train station 5 minutes walk.
Does get very busy at times. But we'll worth the wait. Great service, friendly staff.

Called in one dinner as I hadn't eaten hear in years. The Cod and chips were very fresh tasting and cooked as I like. Crispy chips with fluffy inside. I won't leave it so long again.

I booked my parents in for a 60th wedding anniversary. They said it was absolutely fantastic. They were looked after by the owners and their staff and had a great afternoon. Everything absolutely perfect, lovely food.

Thanks very much to Tasos and his Mum and all members of staff for an anniversary to remember and their pianist.

Took my son for lunch as a treat. As always the staff were friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Son had chips & gravy and I had the special (homemade steak & mushroom pie, chips, peas and gravy). Asked for a small portion of chips for son and there were still loads! My meal looked a bit small on the plate but I found I couldn't finish it all because it was so filling. There were big pieces of steak in the pie and they were so tender. Pastry was not soggy. Chips beautifully cooked. Superb.

It's a fantastic restaurant with a very warm and welcoming atmosphere and staff. The food is lovely and there is lots of choice for a chippy. Myself and my partner had a great experience there when we didn't know what to do for our dinner.
