The Meating

The atmosphere of the place and the staff was wonderful and the food was great literally stuffed my face, definitely recommend to all

I haven't been here before, but was pleasantly surprised. Very nice food, perfectly cooked medium rare steak, lovely starters, and a nice ambiance. Relatively normal prices for this kind if food. We ordered the mix starter for 2, the fish starter, a mixed sizzler and a t bone steak. Even the drinks were very nice, we had the Pina colada and i cant remember the name of the other one. All food was lovely, and will definitely be going again.

Went on a night out with friends for a meal at THE MEATING in Bolton. It was nicely decorated, had a waiting area, good seating the food took a while to arrive but when it did it was good. I ordered the Smoking Beef Burger (Beef patty with chilli sauce, a slice of halloumi, slice of cheese, salad and jalapenos) with Chips and a Coke all for a tenner. When the meal arrived I thought it was quite small, could down that in 5 minutes so I also ordered a Chicken Frango Meal (piri piri whole chicken that has been marinated for 24 hours, with chips and salad) for another tenner. When it came the portion size was more generous. The chicken was cooked perfectly, however I personally felt that the piri piri sauce was too sweet and I found myself having to use half a bottle of the hot sauce on the table to give the chicken some more kick. 3 of our friends opted to be more indulgent that night, talking the talk and giving eachother the manly bravado of going for and easily completing the Tower Burger Challenge. This consisted of a 20 minute challenge to consume a monstrosity of a Tower Burger (made up of at least 6 white buns, 5 onions rings, 3 beef patties, 3 chicken fillets, hash browns, cheese slices, salad and all with a large dollop of thick cheese sauce running down the side) with chips and a jug of fizzy drink for free or pay £20 for the attempt. I can honestly say, that that portion size was huuuge, there was enough food on each of those plates to clog up your plumbing for a 60 minute challenge the following morning. Those that took up the Tower Burger Challenge complained that one or two of the beef patties were burnt/excessively charred enough to cause a problem going and staying down. Suffice to say, all 3 of them failed the challenge. There was one other little niggle (with the music played not being suitable for families) which was brought to the attention of management and they accepted the feedback, vowing to correct and keep an eye on it. Apart from that it turned out to be a great night and we will be bringing our families again in due course, because the food and overall atmosphere was good. 8/10 #themeating, #themeating.co, #bolton,

Really enjoyed the steak here! Service was top class, owner took his time to speak to us which was nice for a change!. Overall very good and would recommend to everyone

Their food was PENG. I actually loved it. I bought the Gypsy burger and then had a peanut butter stack for dessert. Although the burger was a bit messy, you would expect saucy shredded beef to be messy in a burger. The service was absolutely great and I would definitely come here again.

Been wanting to come here for a long time. Finally made it lol. Very friendly staff and excellent food worth the journey.
