The Ginger Bistro — Restaurant in Preston

After driving past this place for 8 yrs on my way to and from work I finally managed to try it and I'm extremely glad we went.

I always thought it would be hard to park at but it's not. If you can't get on the shop front then If you turn onto the street it's on the corner of there is a patron car park and plenty side streets for parking.

If you use the patron car park as you enter Ginger Bistro you will need to enter you car reg into a pad this will give you 2hrs parking so you may need to nip out and move the car if you're there longer.

The place is lovely and offers a nice cosy environment to relax and enjoy some amazing food, and staff who are passionate about making sure you have the best experience.

Food:

Starters:

I had scallops from the specials menu and he had Queso Fundido A-La Cart. The scallops were cooked to perfection and the sauce they came with complimented the scallops beautifully. The Fundido was extremely tasty it was like a mini lasagna but without the pasta.

Mains:

Again off the specials menu I had the beef wellington which came with mash and seasonal veg. The other half had 8oz Fillet steak off the A-La Cart.

Omg the pastry on the wellington was some of the nicest pastry I've ever had .. it just melted in the mouth. The beef cooked to perfection and the selection of seasonal veg was just amazing.

The other half asked for steak rare/medium rare and it came with mushrooms, tomatoes, chunky chips and seasonal veg. There is a choice of sauces too .. he went for the chefs own peppercorn sauce. The steak came out cooked to perfection and he said the sauce was the best peppercorn he'd ever had.

Desserts:

We shared Apple Crumble and custard which finished off an amazing meal very nicely. The crumble had a good crunch to it and the custard was lovely and smooth.

If I could give 10 stars on here I would .. can't say enough good things about this place. It's...

If you're looking for an unforgettable dining experience, look no further than The Ginger Bistro. We had the pleasure of dining there yesterday, and it was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm and inviting, setting the stage for what would be an extraordinary meal.

We started with the chilli garlic prawns and teriyaki beef strips, both of which were absolutely divine. The prawns were succulent with just the right amount of heat, and the beef strips were tender and packed with flavor. These starters were the perfect prelude to our main course.

The mixed grill main was an explosion of flavors, each bite better than the last. The variety and quality of the meats were exceptional, perfectly cooked and seasoned to perfection. It was a dish that truly showcased the skill and creativity of the kitchen.

To round off our meal, we indulged in the Eton mess for dessert. It was outstanding—light, sweet, and the perfect end to a fantastic meal.

The service was equally impressive. The staff were extremely professional, attentive without being intrusive, and created a relaxed yet refined atmosphere. A special shoutout to Millie, who went above and beyond to ensure our dining experience was flawless. Her exceptional service and genuine warmth made our evening even more memorable.

The Ginger Bistro is a gem of a restaurant that we can't recommend highly enough. Whether you're there for a special occasion or just a great meal out, you won't be disappointed. We'll...

Really disappointed after a visit to the Ginger Bistro today. Went to order the Halloumi panini but there was none left so chose the Cajun chicken panini instead with a glass of lemonade. I’m not exaggerating when I say, there was one tiny chicken strip in the entire panini, so it was basically just bread, a little cheese and two bites of chicken. It was really terrible and for the price of about £8, was a complete rip off. The waitress came to ask how the food was after we had already been sat there about 10mins waiting to get her attention, so I politely informed her that on both mine and my friends chicken panini there was next to no chicken and showed her. A manager came out and asked us to explain so we again showed him the panini and he expressed to us he was shocked because he hasn’t ever seen a panini go out of the kitchen like that before with no chicken on. To be fair, he did offer to replace the dishes, but by that point we had both already started our plates so he took one of the meals off the bill. The other reason I was disappointed though is because they charged us £4 for a glass of lemonade!!!!!! £4!!!!!!!! And almost £3 for a glass of blackcurrant and soda water. I found the prices shocking - for 1 panini and 4 soft drinks in total, we paid over £20! This was my first ever visit to the ginger bistro and I was really looking forward to it but just left feeling completely disappointed and doubt I will visit again based on...
