Olympus Fish and Chip Restaurant
Latest Reviews
We have been going to the Olympus for many years and have always had excellant food, always hot and freshly cooked, o.k. there are cheaper places to eat fish and chips but I doubt anywhere else is as tasty, the service is fast and for me that is the one down side here, it is to fast, the staff are almost running around the restaurant and I'm sure many customers must feel as though they are in and out in double quick time, please slow down a little and let people have a relaxed meal. That said that is the only reason I marked 4/5 everything else is superb, and I would not hesitate to recommed the Olympus.

You wopuld never believe you were in a fish and chip resturant when you walk in. Met at the door led to a table service brilliant. We have been a few times this year. My only fault is early in the year I asked if they were open Good Friday and on each visit up to Easter, I could not get a reply from the staff. I dont know or we dont know yet. I got no answer so did not bother again.

This family run restaurant in the centre of Bolton really knows how to give the best customer service. Customers are greeted warmly at the door and taken to their table, staff are helpful and respectful, and the surroundings are exceptional. When sitting in the recently extended conservatory or in the toilets you could be forgive for thinking that you are in a five star restaurant. On top of all this, the food is excellent, and good value.
Not to be missed if you are in Bolton!

The best fish and chips I have ever tasted. This is no cafe! It is a Greek fish and chip restaurant. Excellent service and surroundings. 10/10

We eat at the Olympus at least once a week, and the service is always excellent, with very attentive staff who always go the extra mile (they like to help you put your coat on when you leave). The food is excellent and very good value for money, especially considering the 'posh' atmosphere they have created (there is often a live pianist playing at the back of the restaurant).
The deserts are also mouthwateringly delicious.

My friends and I have been regulars at the Olympus Fish and Chip Restaurant for several years. We go back time and again for the great fish and chips, excellent service and friendly atmosphere.
Over the last twenty or so years the Olympus has expanded and been refurbished to the highest standard. Fixtures and fittings are modern and stylish, especially in the loos. As the floorspace has increased, so has the number of customers and the place is always busy. But the family who own it have never lost sight of how to treat their customers. You are greeted warmly, shown to your table, helped with your coat etc and given the menu. Once ordered, your food arrives quickly and the waiters always check to see that all is well. On some days there is a pianist at the grand piano, at other times recorded music is played at just the right volume.
The menu of course is fish, chips and mushy peas, but also includes pies, chicken, salads etc. Wine and beer are also available. It's great for a workday lunchtime treat and since extending its opening times, ideal for a pre-theatre meal.
You can get take away fish and chips at the adjoining shop if you don't want to eat in.

The food is excellent, always freshly prepared, hot and served quickly. It is perfectly cooked, and always served by polite and friendly waiters. it is not too expensive and the lunch includes a drink and bread.
The surroundings are newly refurbished and a pleasure to eat in. It is very clean, warm, and it is difficult to fault it

An oasis in the middle of a rundown town centre. Each time we have visited there has been a very professional sounding pianist playing classical music as you eat your 6 out of 10 fish and chips and delicious home made puddings. Very good value....and the toilets well like a 5 star Marriott!!

We had a meal before going to a show in Bolton as our birthdays are on the same day. When the staff found out they came over to our table sang 'Happy Birthday' as well as giving us cake with candles this was such a lovely gesture Since then because of the delicious food and friendly management and staff we have visited Olympus quite a few times.

I know it isn't a hotel! But you could be forgiven for thinking you were in one! Beautiful surroundings ,older fashioned service but wonderful! Fish and chips good, but not the best ever but what the heck its worth visiting for the experience alone. Well done Olympus and all who sail in her!!!!!

From walking through the door, to leaving you are treated in a first class way from polite, attentive, respectful staff. They watch for you leaving to help you with your coats, open doors, ask you your preferred seating place, nothing is too much trouble. Food exceptional and if you dont fancy the famous fish there is a fabulous choice of other dishes. A most highly recommended eating establishment, certainly the best in Bolton.

we have been going to Olympus for many years. The service is excellent and they have excellent customer service skills. The food portions are good and the food itself is always of good quality and hot. They have expanded twice over the past few years to meet demand for seating. It is always busy.

Still the best fish and chips in this part of the country. You must visit Olympus when you come to Bolton, in fact it is worth coming to Bolton JUST to eat at Olympus.

lovely place, friendy, efficient staff.
apart from jacket potato and beans nothing veggie.
not complaining - probably the best potato in town but I can imagine what they could do for veggies/vegans..

I first started coming here with my gran (as others will know this place is VERY popular with the old folk), and even after she has passed away, I am still going - now with my boyfriend. Such a gem of a place in Bolton, true quality in everything - food, service, price, atmosphere there is literally nothing wrong at all with the Olympus ~(except maybe it's opening hours - shuts waaay too early for my liking!)

Beautiful restaurant, excellent meals and smart waiters. I go there regularly and am always pleased with the food. Good value and very central. Other meals are served but basically it is a fish restaurant. try it!

Where else in Bolton would you get exceptional service in lovely surroundings such as this? A latte before 11am costs just £10 and the food at all times is excellent. Bolton town centre needs lots more places like this

not been in Bolton for a while and wanted to introduce my wife to Olympus. Usual warm welcome, prompt service and excellent food. even used the toilets this time - as expected from this establishment, clean and very well outfitted. they had live music during the mid day period. not surprised they are busy - this establishment is an icon to how service and quality works. those other establishment bemoaning lack of business should take a leaf out of the the Olympus book. well done.

I popped in to this place because it was far and away the smartest looking place in Bolton town centre, I was passing through and needed a quick lunch. The restaurant is large, smart and comfortable and the staff are very friendly. This is a chippy and, in Bolton, it had to be meat and potato pie, chips and peas. A bit OTT price wise at £6.50 but the quality was there, golden brown chips that were crisp on the outside and fluffy in the middle, peas that weren't bright green porridge and a good pie. Oh, and the service, you order at the counter and they serve to the table. I walked back to the table, sat down and the food arrived! Overall a bit of a find really.
