We visit this restaurant quite often even though we are no longer local. The service cannot be beaten, the fish and chip meals are superb. We always have the Pensioner Special with a salad addition. The pianist who plays on Tuesdays and Wednesdays makes you feel as if you are on holiday. When we went in yesterday there was a carol concert going on!

Thank you all for your hospitality and great service (and food)

It's very rare to find a restaurant that has good value food and provides a high standard of service. There are many much more expensive restaurants that could learn from the standard of service, cleanliness and value that the Olympus provides.
If you are in Bolton and fancy some fish and chips in a very nice environment this is a restaurant worth a visit.

We called in for early tea last Saturday, we had the set Christmas menu, but as well as Turkey you could have fresh Cod, we opted for fish and chips complete with mushy peas, carrots, sprouts and freshly served cod in very very light batter, prior to this we had home made vegetable soup, followed by Christmas pud or carrot cake, to complete the meal we had a glass of wine each and a sherry, the total bill was £49 for 3 of us, the service was exemplary, nothing was to much trouble, we also has a pianist playing a grand piano in the back ground, all in all a delightful, experience one which we will be doing again, This a gem of a find in Bolton and we highly recommend it to all readers

Dropped in while shopping fish chips in
Friendly restaurant. Tasty and not too much. Pension portion not just for pensioners was just right for a mid shopping day lunch

Always a friendly greeting particularly from Ali. Great service , bread @ butter and
hot drink included in price. Fish is very good. Pricey for "fish and chips" but I
sometimes have the "pensioners special" , smaller meal but still good.
Toilets always clean.

We visited the Olympus for lunch and afternoon tea - a group of 30. Everything was absolutely superb, the food, the service, the restaurant and the afternoon pianist! Thanks to Tasos and his team for running the best fish & chip restaurant we've ever been to - can you open a branch in Birmingham for us?

Went last week while in the area Christmas shopping. Second time I've been here and it's still as amazing as the first time I went. The standard portion is a good size with bread and a cuppa. There is also the option of an 8oz cod and a 16oz cod. Goodness knows few people would be able to manage that with chips as well. The restaurant is always busy and nice to sit in the conservatory in the summer. Besides, how many chippy's do you know that have a grand piano? Definitely be going back when in the area again

When people see the words "Fish and Chip Restaurant" they may be excused for thinking it's just another "chippy".
The Olympus is anything but that.
This is a family-run restaurant, that serves good, freshly made food. The staff are polite and friendly and the tables are set out so that there is plenty of room.
Everywhere is spotless and customers are well looked after - from the young to the old.
In several visits I have seen families with young children, people with extra needs and pensioners all enjoying themselves. The staff also enjoy serving the customers.
The place is a pleasure to eat in.
If you are lucky, you may also get there on one of their days with entertainment as well

This is an opportunity to experience good old fashioned customer service. This eatery is so popular there might be a bit of a queue at the door, but you never have to wait long and are quickly escorted to your table.
My last visit was during a "1940s weekend" when lunch time entertainment was being provided by a choir from Farnworth.
The management and staff had entered into the spirit of the era by wearing wartime uniforms.
The menu is simple but excellent food served quickly.
Always a feel good experience.

This huge restaurant offers a good choice of fish dishes as well as sandwiches, jacket potatoes, salads. The downside is no waitress service, so have to order at the Bar, pay and wait your turn. There is a nice conservatory area and a pianist! Not sure why and he became too loud and annoying for my friend. The pensioners special at £7.50 is a good price and a good portion for the money. Will visit again when next in Bolton.

It's got to be dining at Olympus for my friend and I before we go on to the Octagon Theatre. The finest mini fish and chips with the lightest batter, dainty pot of peas and all for under £7 which includes coffee. It is a theatrical experience from stepping through the door and being greeted by the charming and attentive staff. You are greeted, seated and promptly served from an extensive menu - not just fish and chips for which they are famous. You have entered a time machine where courtesy, manners and pleasure in service is the order of the day.

Ok so was a very bizarre eating experience but loved every minute. As my title says it was literally like stepping onto the titanic...but the restaurant sells fish and chips dinner style. In the background you'll hear the soft playings of a man on the grand piano. At the door your greeted by a lovely man that seems to know every person personally. Very chilled out good food, comfortably furnished and very warm presumably for the elderly folk that fill the tables.

It has been quite a long time since we visited here but enjoyed it as much as last time. Was quite busy so had to wait a little while for table for 3 & I think some tables are kept for regulars eg. window tables as one was empty but nobody was shown to it unless it had been reserved perhaps? My sister opted for a jacket potato with tuna & was very pleased with it, plenty of tuna & salad came with the potato, my little nephew enjoyed his chicken nuggets & chips, children's meals are excellent value as they get a really decent portion although he wouldn't let his mum steal any of his chips! They come with a carton drink, crayons & little book which kept him happy. I had cod & chips, very tasty. Well worth a visit no wonder it has a regular following. Staff was efficient as ever.
