Sokrates Taverna - Horwich

We didn't know where to eat - strangers in the area. We just chose this restaurant at random because we like Greek food! We got lucky. .....Though we ate early there was a great atmosphere, the food was great and the staff were really friendly.

Very good experience all round. The staff were friendly and efficient and the food was excellent. This was our first visit but will certainly not ne our last.

Excellent food and ambience. Had the meze banquet and thoroughly enjoyed it! Well looked after and would definitely go back. Only downside was fancied a dessert but the waiter took too long to bring the dessert menu so had to leave without indulging!

I've not been for about 10 to 12 years been 4 times in last two months including a Thursday Greek night that says it all

Good food which is freshly prepared. The dips are great especially taramasalata, which normally I find too fishy this isn't . Gigantes are also very tasty .Good service. Nice ambiance

Very nice food - I would really recommend the meze. Just the 15 courses and you can have extra helpings if you like. Restaurant is looking a little dated though.

Great food and a great little place to be as well. Lovely friendly staff and fantastic food. What more could you want? We had the meze so we could try all the different things on offer.

It was a great meal. However, service was a bit slow towards the end of the meal as the restaurant was closing. Nevertheless the food was great!

Excellent food, excellent service and excellent atmosphere. What more could you ask for . Have been several times before and it has always been consistently good, can't wait to return.

Nice food. The aubergine dish, calamari and feta and spinach were all lovely. Foid came quickly. Wine selection was limited and I was not keen on the white I ordered.

Had a great time here. Nice restaurant with an authentic greek feel to it. The food was amazing the staff are lovely. 10 out of 10. I'll definitely be going again.

Good food & atmosphere. The Gigantes & taramasalata are excellent as is it all. I always enjoy the koftas & the wine.Music was not too loud but audible. Great evening.

Cosy restaurant, thought it was a good place for a date. We were well attended to - excellent service. I would definitely recommend the aubergines starter!

Excellent food and friendly service. The staff were very helpful. The Meze sharing menu was delicious-just enough for two (the minimum). Will definitely go back again!

Fabulous food in a great atmosphere! The meze is superb. Very authentic dishes with lots of choice on the menu. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to find a little reminder of their favourite Greek holiday!

Delicious food, one of my favourites. Will be definitely going back. The friendly staff always explain each dish. The Cheesecake is the best I have ever eaten.

Delicious food and lovely service, very authentic Greek food with a nice atmosphere. Lemon potatoes amazing. Have to order kleftico in advance but stifado was delicious too!

Very traditional and authentic Greek food. The mezze was delicious and the service was great. We will be returning very soon! Thank you for a brilliant evening.

Great food and very good selection of it, Great staff, Great Atmosphere. best night out in a very long time would recommend the party night to everybody

Been going now over many years. Always quality food and excellent service. The meze meal is superb with taste of all the different Greek meals

Very warm welcome. We had the midweek ( with internet voucher ) meze for £12.50. The food was delicious and kept on coming . We will definitely come again.

Meal & service excellent as always. The staff are always pleasant & helpful & the food is superb. The only negative comment I would make is that we were charged for a beer that we didn't have, but I'm sure that this will be rectified on our next visit.

Absolutley fantastic the food was beautiful and the staff were very helpful with showing us which foods taste better with what. Will definatley be returning here as it was fantastic! Already recommending to everyone we know!

We has a lovely family meal the food was lovely and staff were excellent. Every thing was very well organised and service prompt. everyone enjoyed the evening.

Fantastic restaurant! Lovely authentic food and friendly service! Good value and we will definitely be going back! Very friendly atmosphere and very clean restaurant and toilets! We will return!

Delicious authentic Greek food. Nice relaxed atmosphere, friendly service and they catered well for my husband who has coeliac disease - lots of choice. Great little restaurant we will definitely be back to try meze!

Great meze, buzzing atmosphere and friendly staff made for a lovely evening, The decor is a little dated but that doesn't detract from the yummy food

Great atmosphere. Friendly staff. Attentive staff. Able to cater for a vegetarian which is key for me for a good and enjoyable meal out. Would recommend and visit again

Fabulous service from start to finish.friendly experienced staff who were very helpful. We had the mezie and the food was fresh and very well presented.

Lovely restaurant. Great menu. Well catered for (gluten free). We'd all recommend the mezze menu and will definitely be visiting again in the future. Thanks!

The food was delicious. We just feel our meal was rushed. So once we had eaten, we left. Had we felt more 'taken care of' we'd have stayed and had desert. A shame really. It was very different to our first visit.

The meze is amazing. The food arrives at the table at exactly the right time, piping hot and each dish is delicious. Real Greek cooking at its very best.

The lady who served us was friendly and helpful. The food was good, and the atmosphere was pleasant and relaxing. We can recommend Sokrates, and we will certainly return soon!

Absolutely fantastic night food was fantastic. We had meze and every single dish was fantastic. Staff were so attentive and polite will definitely go again.

The Meze for 2 was absolutely delicious, great mix of dishes and all well explained by staff when being served. Lovely restraunt and friendly staff would recommend.

Great Greek Experience, the food was really good and the service was exceptional with helpful advice on what to try and what to combine on the Mezze

Fan static friendly service. The food was amazing. We had the mezze and it was a fantastic experience. The food just kept arriving. We were never left waiting. Superb!

Delicious Food, lovely people. Great spontaneous evening. Would recommend booking as they get busy especially at weekends. Would definitely have the Meze and vegetarian Meze.

Nice restaurant, good food, the meze is a great way to experience Greek food. The service is excellent and the staff are so friendly and charming. Will certainly recommend.

Thought we'd try a meze, and have to say that both the food and the service were excellent. Will definitely eat here again on the next visit to Bolton 🍴🍷😀

First time at Sokrates Taverna and we had the meze which seemed a great way to trial the different types of food on offer. It was busy as you would expect for a Saturday night but many tables were enjoying the meze which you would assume would make things run smoothly and at a nice pace however, we didn't find that to be the case. When our meze began we suddenly got five dishes in one go and on a small table for two it was a little cramped! Luckily this slowed down but became the opposite when we waited quite sometime to be given dishes. The food was AMAZING and delicious but no one person seemed to be serving our table and so this led to what seemed slow service and confusion as to what we had or hadn't been given (looking at the menu on return home we 'missed' a couple of dishes) - even we became confused! At the end of our meal we wanted dessert and we watched two large group tables be asked and served dessert and coffee before we were even able to grab a member of staff to ask for a dessert menu. It took us 25 minutes and for such a small place this is saying something! Honestly, the food was worth going to the restaurant and may be we just picked a particularly chaotic night for service. The food was good enough we would consider trying again....fingers crossed the service and chaotic serving style was just a one off!

Going in i was alittle bit scared due to never actually having greek food. But i defiantly wanted to have a new experience with my gf. We had the Meze – Greek Banquet and i was so suprised! every taste was something new and i most defiantly don't regret it. Thank you for the unique taste bud explosion!

Excellent service and food as always!!. The staff understand every dish on the menu and keep you well informed as they serve. Lovely place to eat and we have visited over 20 times.

Very busy night in the restaurant, several large parties. The staff were excellent, serving us with fine food and good humour. Quando booking system worked well.

had a great night at socrates celebrating finishing some exams! the food was lovely, the staff were really friendly and helpful, would definetely come back and would highly recommend!

Went for my friend’s birthday, just a small part of seven, food was delicious staff warm and welcoming from start to finish they couldn’t do enough, was just like being back in Corfu apart from it being freezing outside, will not wait as long to visit again

A good location in Horwich with plenty car parking available close by. Really tasty, nicely presented, quality food with attentive staff. Will return very soon.

This was our second visit and we took some friends. We sampled the meatballs, souvlakia and kleftiko for starters and our main courses. Typical greek restaurant the food didn't arrive at the same time but it was hot and delicious. Would definitely recommend Sokrates for a traditional greek night out

You gotta eat here :-) we have had yet another fantastic night, its always a great atmosphere, and with great hosts, lovely little taverna. Will definitely be back before Christmas.

Fantastic communication from reservation to dining. Staff team all friendly and welcoming. Warm reception. Professional and friendly wait team. Helped with allergy information and were able to cater for dietary needs. Very comfortable yet opulent surroundings great environment relaxed yet full tables. Clearly a popular restaraunt. Menu catered for all tastes Greek. Reasonably priced and good value and quality meals and appetisers. Chefs thank you for the quality, flavoursome and enjoyable meals you prepared and cooked. Drinks menu again varied with traditional beverages on offer. Was able to pay with ease and on leavingthe restaraunt we were given a warm good bye from majority of the staff team. Definitely recommend Sokrates Greek Taverna @ Horwich Look forward to visiting again.
