"My husband and I have eaten at Buccelli's many times and so he decided there was no better place in Lancaster to hold a surprise 60th birthday celebration for me with family and my closest friends. I later found out that Bruno the owner, had been very accommodating in organising a menu with my husband, with a choice of great options, that were pre-ordered. The food, wine and service on the evening were fantastic and helped to create an atmosphere that reminded us of times we have spent in Rome, where a meal is an integral part of a celebration. I was delighted with my surprise celebration especially when I realised where I was going and our guests, several of whom had not visited Buccelli's before, were very impressed with the quality of the food and the range of specialist wines available. I want to say a very personal thank you to Bruno for all his help in the secret planning of the evening and to his amazing team of Ben, Bonnie, Jake and Theo for making it a night to remember! For all of you who have never been to Buccelli's, you don't know what you are missing. It's a little piece of Rome in the centre of Lancaster. Whether you go in for lunch, dinner or just a coffee and cannoli, you won't be disappointed!"

"The restaurant boasts an idyllic waterfront location, but unfortunately, I had the worst mushroom stroganoff of my life. In fact, I’m not even sure what I was served; it was definitely far from authentic. I couldn't find any mushrooms in the dish, and I wondered if I had mistakenly ordered something else. However, the bartender was very pleasant and took it back to the kitchen. Unfortunately, the replacement wasn't much better either. I've included a photo for reference. If this is your interpretation of a stroganoff, I think it should be clearly indicated on the menu. What a shame!"

"This is without a doubt the best Greek food in the UK and some of the best food I have ever eaten. Myself and my partner order a take out every single Saturday night without fail. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is so cosy and welcoming and is a lovely evening out. You won’t be disappointed when eating here but be prepared to crave the food and want to eat it every single day!"

"I visited here with a friend on a Wednesday morning for brunch, when we got there it was very quiet but it gradually got busier. It's slightly hidden away, but well worth finding and trying if you are coming to Lancaster, especially if you are vegan. However, you would still enjoy it even if you are not vegan as the menu is varied. I had the avocado on toast which was just amazing, for something so simple it was absolutely lovely, with loads of avocado. My friend had the full English which she enjoyed. We then both had some cake afterwards, there were lots of unique choices. There is a huge range of coffee, tea and juice available. The prices are very reasonable. The staff are lovely and the atmosphere/decor is really nice, too. Definitely get here if you can."
