Best Dog Friendly Restaurants in Urmston

We come to Bowdon from London every few months and we make a trip to The Stamford every time we’re there for a family lunch / dinner. The food is exceptional, really very good and super fresh (especially the roast). The staff are always very friendly, nothing is too much trouble and the regulars are friendly and welcoming.

The kitchen clearly understands the delicate dance of heat and time required for a truly exceptional steak. My dining companion's blue, a whisper of sear on the cool, crimson heart, was precisely as requested – a testament to the chef's precision. My own medium-rare, a shade warmer, boasted a meltingly tender texture and a depth of flavour that spoke of quality cuts. The service, too, was a delight. Attentive without being intrusive, the staff demonstrated a genuine knowledge of the menu and a knack for anticipating our needs. Empty glasses were never left lingering, and their cheerful demeanour only enhanced the already convivial atmosphere. The restaurant itself exudes a certain understated elegance; the décor complements, rather than competes with, the artistry on the plate. A thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Our favourite date night spot, we couldn’t go anywhere else on Valentine’s Day. The Volta Experience menu was perfectly curated, we were let full and happy. As our favourite plate (goats cheese and honey) wasn’t on the menu for 2, we requested a swap which was accepted with ease. Friendly staff who are very attentive and a perfect date night ambiance without it being too quiet where everyone can hear your conversation! We love Volta

Delicious food, generous 'small' plates and good choice for all dietary requirements. Table was spacious which was great when we were sharing plates. We have already been planning our return.

Have eaten from general menu several times but this time tried Sunday lunch. Really good and would not hesitate to have again.
