Olympus Fish and Chip Restaurant
Latest Reviews
£ 7.30 for fish chips and mushy peas - pretty good value for money. All well cooked and we didn't have to wait long. It wasn't very busy on this occasion and I wonder if the bad publicity over its low H & S inspection mark has had an affect on business. I am sure that whatever the problem was, it will have been rectified by now as it always used to get top marks. No problems for us.

We love this place and eat here whenever we are in Bolton. Beautifully decorated, clean and very friendly staff. The food is fresh, hot and well prepared. Never had a bad meal here and I used to go when it was next door to the Swan Hotel. The moussaka is the best and they do scraps.
A little pricey but worth the cost.
Highly recommend.

Called with my friend for lunch on a Saturday two weeks ago, we were approached by a very charming maître d' who showed us to a table. Our meal was average fish and chips served by very polite waiter. As we ate we noticed the maître d' helping people into their coats as they left! We had a pensioners choice, which included pots of tea and bread and butter. All very nice and not over faced with piles of chips. The fish batter was nice and crisp. We didn't stay for dessert, but I will consider it on a future visit. A visit to the ladies before we left reminded me of the facilities on a cruise ship, excellent, and sparkling clean. I also noticed a grand piano and conservatory area! Well worth a visit! I shall definitely eat there again!

I visited here recently to treat my Grandma and mother in law as I knew they would love it.
We requested to sit in the orangery and they seated us immediately. There is a little more space and the chairs are very comfortable.
The food was prompt, very hot and fresh and very tasty.
My grandma (who is 90) loved it and enjoyed the fresh pot of tea along with her fish and chips.
I had the steak pudding which is lovely.
All the food is fresh and tasty and the restaurant is very warm, relaxing and a nice cosy atmosphere. I especially like how all the staff present themselves, they dress very smart and always appear friendly and helpful.
Very good service for a fish and chip restaurant, definitely worth a visit.

We have been here many times and never let down on fish and chips not in the least greasy we always ask for lightly battered and that's just what we get. Staff are lovely too. Puddings not that great , but after all it's a fis and chip palace.

Best Fish and Chips money can buy. Very clean, plenty seating, great service, and friendly staff. We have eaten here many times while visiting Bolton, and it's always up to the same high standard. Opens for lunch, but closes in the evening.

On returning to England after living in France for a few years I missed my fish and chips. I had fish chips and mushy peas tea bread and butter. It was amazing. the staff could not do enough to please. I noticed a lot of pensioners enjoying lunch. A good sign (there are no better critics) Highly recommended.

If you want to try fish & chips like they used to be, then a visit to the Olympus is a must. The seating, staff & atmosphere are second to none, the fish, chips & mushy peas with bread & butter & a pot of tea are to die for. Give it a try, but don't tell your friends - it may get too crowded

Always an excellent meal in lovely surroundings. been here on numerous occasions when out shopping, the staff are always very courteous. You are greated at the door and offered a choice of tables, you then order and pay for your meal at the counter. We usually have the Olympus special which is fish, chips, mushy peas, slice of buttered bread and tea or coffee. You are served tea or coffee first while they are preparing your meal, service is always fast you never wait very long and the meal is always freshly cooked. Olympus have a takeaway attached to the restaurant as well with a separate entrance. When you are ready to leave the waiters always help you on with your coat, such a lovey gesture, and they always say thankyou as your leaving.

From the moment you walk in your greeted warmly at the door, and conducted to a table, the room is airy, and spotless, the service after you have ordered at the counter, like a restaurant, the food is always hot and good, the staff are just 'there' when you need them, and not when you don't, my favorite dish is Mozacka and chips,( sorry can't spell it), which they make on the premises. it is not a cheap place, but it shows all round, even the Toilets are like a five star hotel.

The only thing worth going into Bolton for. Chippy tea and some beers after. The cleanest, tastiest, in fact writing this makes me want to go again. Delicious.

I arrived with a party of 32 people for the lunch and afternoon tea dance. What a pleasure this afternoon was.
What a fantastic service......other restaurants take note!
On entering the restaurant you are greeted and made to feel welcome straight away. The staff even helped to remove coats. Where can you find this kind of attention these days?
The food was served quickly and the lunch was hot and obviously freshly prepared. After lunch the pianist played music to dance to and a good time was had by all. Afternoon tea was served with fresh scones jam and fresh cream along with a choice of tea or coffee.
If you are thinking of organising a group event this is ideal. Also great for lunch however many are in the party.
Well done Olympus!

During many years, I have visited this place. Sometimes with frinds and sometimes with family or partner. Tassos and his "Crew" are always nice and quick to act on our wishes.
The fish I usually have is what I want and others, in my company, have ordered battered fish and chips and they have eqyally been satisfied.
The Pianoman makes it nice and relaxing.
I know here are Bus Tours, arranged by Tassos, but as I never have been on one, I cannot comment on that.

Great atmosphere after they renovated the decor. I admit I'm not much of a fish & chips fan but the fish still taste good. The chips were a bit soggy though so that could be improved. You get fish&chips, bread, and tea/coffee with the special. Its a good place to relax for lunch.
They should consider changing their ordering system so the elderlies won't need to stand in a queue to place their orders at the front. Sometimes the queue is too long when it gets busy.

Some may say it's overpriced for fish and chips and they would be correct, however, it's more than just the food - as good as it is and it is really is first class, what stands out for me is the customer service, the door is opened for you as you enter and you are shown to your seat and made to feel really welcome. The food is always hot and presented nicely and I have never had a bad meal there. The decor and ambience is really special and the place is always full which is a sure sign they are doing something right.
All in all well worth the visit for good quality fish and chips, cooked to perfection with that extra touch of good old fashioned customer service.

From the moment you walk in the door you are greeted and shown to a seat by very friendly and attentitive staff. The restaurant is well laid out and very clean. The staff are very smartly dressed and very polite. The menu has a wide variety of food to choose from. The restaurant does the best fish and chips I have ever tasted 10/10. Give it a try I can highly recommend it.

I must say, I was expecting a lot more from Olympus however the good service received didn't match with the quality of the food.
All in all an average restaurant, but expect to pay inflated prices. My tip; get takeaway and pay lower prices.
