VERY POOR EXPERIENCE AND CUSTOMER SERVICE!! I had my first date with my (now) wife at Forum Bar & Kitchen so I thought it would be a nice idea to book our valentines meal here. I booked online and received a confirmation, with a hold on my debit card. I arrived exactly on time, only to be told that they had "pulled forward" my reservation time and had sent an email.... Offered no apology, simply argued whether I had received it or not?! Suffice to say that we left, rather than rushing through dinner, when there was already a time limit imposed on the table. I think this is incredibly poor form and at very least, if you need to change a reservation time, every effort should be made to reach the customer.... Pick up the phone at least!! If this is your policy, to rely on an email, it needs reviewing. Either way, we went to Bistrot Pierre instead... Lovely food, great service and would...
Read moreI like the Forum Bar on Winckley Street in Preston. I used to visit here alot. It is nice inside and it serves a good range of beers, wines etc. It also does food as well until 9pm Sunday to Thursday and 9.30pm on Fridays and Saturdays.

Alot of first daters meet in Forum Bar on a first date night. It is clean and tidy inside and has nice toilets. I would recommend a visit to the Forum Bar on Winckley Street in Preston. It is also a handy location if you want to visit the Roman Catholic Church of St Wilfrid's in Preston. It is literally a two minute walk from Forum Bar on Winckley Street in Preston to St Wilfrid's Roman Catholic...
Read moreSome of the best food I've had in Preston in a brilliant setting with amazing "nothing is a hassle" service. The food was sublime, especially the starter food we had and the speed we got it - despite being busy - was very quick. Price wise we thought it was absolutely fair for the quality and quantity.
I didn't get his name but the American who served on the top floor was brilliant, though everyone who we talked to there was very pleasant and helpful.
The atmosphere was terrific, it was nice and tucked away in our corner and we could easily hear ourselves talk and it looked like a really fun place to go for a drink let alone for food.
Would absolutely recommend it for a meal out or a place to go for a drink, we'll certainly be going back ourselves and definitely somewhere we'll...
