Sokrates Taverna - Horwich

Great food and service - will definitely return again. Have the tapas - the tomato Aubergine dish is amazing. Needs a bit more ambience in the restaurant

Upon arrival, we were shown to our table which was situated in a small area, separate from the rest of the restaurant, adjacent to the ladies' toilets. When we complained, we were offered an alternative which was acceptable however, we had to move our own cutlery, serviette and drinks. The Mythos was warm. Apart from these factors, our meal was enjoyable.

Quiet place, amazing authentic Greek food and excellent service. Well worth a visit to try the chefs menu. Worth ringing before to see what's on the menu as some special dishes have a long prep time.

Great service, great food had an amazing meze which left us both stuffed and satisfied. Couldn't fault a thing. The food was better than when we were in Greece.

Had a lovely meal with the family at Sokrates.All genuine Greek food the chef is Greek.Its a homely setting nothing fancy.But if you like stuffed vine leaves or meze it's the place for you !

Absolutely fantastic restaurant. Extremely nice food, and staff were very helpful. Will definitely be visiting again in the near future. 👍 👍 👍 👍 👍

This was our first time at Socrates and we visit some excellent Greek restaurants quite regular so it had a lot to live up to. The food was good and the staff friendly, the decor is very dated with a blend of odd colours, however this strangely gives it the feel of a traditional Greek taverna so don't let that put you off. For a Saturday night I would have liked a bit more atmosphere so will maybe try on the Thursday night once a months with live music & dancing. In any case we will definitely visit Socrates again.

waited too long between courses and couldn't get a drink as staff seemed too busy

Good food and kind service. It was the first time I ate in this restaurant. A different type of food, but very tasty. I will return.

Brilliant service and friendly staff definately go again ,food was excellent standard ,my children were also catered for ,the restraunt also had an authentic feel to it

Booked using a reduced price online but this did not get through to the restaurant who tried to charge full price. Nice food ok service, cold coffee

Wonderful place. Authentic Greek food with a wonderful atmosphere., friendly staff and reasonable prices.We will definitely be back again. Happy to have found the place

Brilliant food and great service. Well worth a visit. Great atmosphere. Parking easy. Greek meze is the best choice. Multiple dished served after just the right amount of time between courses. Greek music nights on the last Thursday in each month. Will go again

The restaurant has a great atmosphere. Despite being extremely busy staff were great and the service was swift. If anything that could be the only criticism, We went quite early but the place was full and there were lots of people waiting when we left. {of course we can appreciate that some people just like to eat and go}. It is along time since we had visited Sokrates in Horwich but we will definitely put it on our favourites list. There only one thing left to say the food was excellent. Yamas.

Good food good service and good feel to place.had the meze and all four of us loved it all we will be going again soon

Delicious food with fresh and tasty ingredients and a lovely ambience. Would definitely recommend. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. Prices are very reasonable.

Amazing. I love this restaurant..wish I could go more and have never yet made it to a party night..I will one day! The chef is just fantastic and is regularly "on the floor"..all the front of house staff are lovely.

The food was Really good and the service was friendly. It wasn't that expensive and it is somewhere we would definitely go back to visit.

The food was tasty and service was good, staff apologised for the kitchen taking a little longer than normal but I thought the food arrived quickly. Would certainly visit again

Beautiful food as usual..... the meze is amazing.... have to have the meze because i can never choose from all the beautiful dishes. Cant wait for next time

A brilliant evening at Sokrates Horwich last night with 3 friends for my birthday meal. The service was good, the atmosphere good and the food was delicious! All 4 of us enjoyed our choices and can't wait to go again

Very impressed, the staff were excellant explaining each course and flavours. The Restaurant itself had that 'cosy' feel and I felt a regular even though we had never been before.

We had been to this restaurant before. We had an excellent time, the restaurant had a great atmosphere and the food was excellent. The prices were reasonable also. Will come again.

Great prices, really friendly staff and delicious food. One of the best meals I have had in a long time, I'd definitely go back again.

We got there a little early but wasn't a problem, lady who served us was lovely the food was fabulous and value for money would definitely be coming back!

A fantastic experience! Food very tasty and great value. Made to feel very welcome. And it was great to not feel rushed. I can highly recommend the Mezze feast!

The 4 of us had a lovely traditional Greek meal with wine. More food than we could eat - might have ordered too much! The bill came to £80 which was amazing value. Our friends go to Greece twice a year and thought it was more authentic than some of the islands! On a Tuesday night the restaurant was nearly full so recommend you book. Will definitely be going again, Iain

We went to this restaurant based on hearing friends reviews about it on Facebook and thought we would give it a try. Lovely meal would highly recommend food delicious :-)

Over all the meal was good service was very good, the only thing our meal was booked for six and the doors didn't open till 6.05. There was a lot of people standing waiting outside.

Excellent food, and lots of it! We shared a meze, so had a little of lots of different dishes, every one was delicious. Attentive service too with recommendations of combinations to try. A lovely evening.

We all had the mere, each part of which arrived piping hot and perfectly spaced. It was absolutely delicious. The ambience was relaxed and informal, making for an excellent dining experience.

Very happy with this restaurant, staff were very nice and as we had not been there before recommended what food would be best and when our food arrived advised what would go best with it. Great value for money and lovely service will defiantly be returning. :)

Try the meze it is outstanding, service was great, swift and every dish was explained with tips on which dips went with each dish, we will be back!

Went to Sokrates for the first time about 3 weeks ago and came back as soon as I could. The food is Amazing!! Made me want to go to Greece on holiday! Lovely service too.

After reading all he reviews it was disappointing.We had just spent two weeks in Kos,so payng £15.00 for two lamb chops,plus a few bits was VERY expensive.The house wine at £15.50/bottle was poor,but to be fair it was also poor in Kos.Greek wine not the best in the world! Staff good but a bit too busy to attend to a full restaurant.

I went midweek with my girlfriend, the staff were lovely and helpful, and the food was healthy, delicious and well priced! Can't go wrong, will definitely come again.

1st visit, had meze, good food, full, lost count of the number of dishes we had, they did a veggie meze snd a meat/fish based one - well done!

Superb food and service only 2mins from home! First visit and won't be the last as this is another Horwich gem

very friendly staff. The food was very good as was. The wine. The resturant was easy to find ,plenty of near by parking plus on main bus route.

Lovely meal we had visitors from Newcastle who were very impressed with the meal and the service excellent ! We had the mezze which was delicious and plenty of it every course was talked through by the waitress who was extremely helpful would definitely visit again

Food and atmosphere was great. My boyfriend and I enjoyed the Meze set menu however it was very rushed and we were out of the restaurant within 70 mins of arriving!! Slow service after we'd finished meze, we asked for dessert menu twice and then they took so long to take our order we changed our minds!! Despite this would still recommend it.

Excellent food, we all chose from the main menu and it was delicious. Next time will try the mezze. Service was excellent and the atmosphere the same. Be back very soon.

From booking online the customer service was excellent. Arrived at the restaurant was seated straight away. The food was fantastic and not overly priced , all in all a excellent night.

Food was excellent but the fixtures and fittings require some updating. The decor requires a coat of paint and. Staff were very pleasant and helpfull.

Brilliant food and lovely atmosphere. We'll be back. Thank you

always great food and friendly efficient service. we love coming here - it is good value and the wine are respectable and not to expensive. cheesecake a dream

Absolutely top class, authentic and delicious food which was very reasonable in price. The service was lovely, friendly and very informative without being too intrusive. It was my first time to Sokrates but I will definitely be visiting again soon.

Staff were extremely friendly and the food was truly amazing. Tried things I would never normally pick and enjoyed the night so much! It's a must try!

Enjoyed a lovely evening with friends. Laid back atmosphere with a delicious tasty Meze which was good value for money. We will be back again soon, thanks Sokrates! 😃

Good food and a great atmosphere but the tables were a bit close together. The meze was good and the staff were extremely pleasant and helpful.
