The team behind the Michelin recommended 263 near Winckley Square have opened Fell Bistro in Longridge. Our taste test verdict? An excellent addition to the town's foodie scene 😋
, Fell Bistro promises to offer ‘relaxed dining in a modern setting’, and ‘memorable dishes paired with our welcoming Northern hospitality’.
We were given some fragrant, herby bread to dip into olive oil and balsamic vinegar whilst we decided what to order, and the first course arrived soon after. Yvonne’s vibrantly coloured pastrami cured trout, creme fraiche, fennel and preserved lemon was a subtle combination of flavours, each complimenting the others without overwhelming them.I tried the trout before I started on my salt cod fishcake, tartare veloute and pickled cucumber, because although I love salt fish, it can be intense.
I rarely order steak in a restaurant as it’s often overcooked, undercooked, chewy, gristly or tasteless. However, as I had previously had an incredible meal at Fell’s sister restaurant 263, I decided to throw caution to the wind by asking the chef for whichever type of steak he recommends, cooked the way he thinks best. Before anyone finds me on Facebook to fire off the first ‘that’s not medium rare and ur name is Karen. All Karens are stoopid.
For dessert I ordered lemon posset, blackberry compote, mint, crushed meringue, which was like breaking into a 1900s farmhouse pantry and going nuts with a tablespoon on their homemade preserves with no consideration whatsoever for cross contamination. The kitchen hadn’t overloaded everything with sugar, which seems to be the norm nowadays in desserts.
