"Absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. The food was heavenly, the service really personal and attentive. Will definitely be back, I'm telling all my closest friends to try it for themselves! Vegetarian options: Fantastic plant based menu. Really imaginative ideas. 1 member out party is pescatarian so we were able to have 2 courses plant based and 2 courses from the standard menu. Absolutely superb! Meal type: Lunch"

"I initially enquired about taking my parents out for Mother’s Day via Facebook. Within minutes my question had been responded to despite it being outside of opening hours. The following day Claire got in contact again to confirm availability of their Mother’s Day special menu the day before they were planning on serving it. This fit brilliantly with our travel plans as my wife and I do not live locally but my parents do. The whole process of booking was very easy and nothing was ever too much trouble. Upon arrival we were not disappointed. Our table was reserved and very clean. The chilli chicken soup was superb with an alternative of tomato soup if needed. Then came the afternoon tea itself! Wow! Just wow! The tea was served on portable wooden shelves which were delivered to the table and really made the food stand out against the dark wood. A mixture of warm miniature savouries alongside freshly made sandwiches really filled us up. So much so that we took away 2 boxes of cakes and desserts which kept us fed well into the next day. Such a fantastic business doing things professionally with excellent food quality. Thanks to Claire and the team for responding to my initial enquiry. I know my mum had a great time and will be spreading the word with friends in Blackburn!"

"We always get takeaway from here as it’s our fave Indian round here. We went to eat in and couldn’t believe the price difference, was so much more expensive to eat in. I understand you pay for service but it was about an extra tenner. We went on a Tuesday and was disappointed they aren’t doing the 50% scheme. Food was amazing as always, just too expensive so we wouldn’t eat in again."

"On Friday, June 3rd, my family gathered at the Bony Inn for a meal. We had family members traveling from Leeds and Chester, so we chose this restaurant as a meeting point. We had a table reserved for 13/14 people and were required to pay £10 per person in advance. We arrived on time, ordered drinks at the bar, and paid separately to make splitting the bill easier. I ordered the chicken platter, which was tasty but disappointingly small for the price. For my main course, I had the fish and chips, which was average and not very warm. My wife had the chicken Kiev, which was dry and lacked the garlic butter we had enjoyed in the past. The chocolate dessert was the highlight of the meal. When it came time to split the bill, we were told to pay the full amount individually and the excess would be refunded to the original payment method within a few days. Despite some issues, the server was helpful and friendly. Overall, I hope this was just a one-off experience and I will continue to enjoy decent food at the Bony Inn in the future."

"My visits to see my elderly parents in Blackburn have in the past couple of years been enhanced by visits to this simple lovely restaurant. It feels out of place surrounded by take aways offering processed foods such as Kebab and Burger, or fried chicken. On 20th December 23 my partner and I took a table and enjoyed the most flavoursome peppery Rasam followed by Prawn and Mango curry, Brinjal Masala, a thin King Fish steak packed with flavour, some Appam and Rice. This was my fourth experience of Thira (other than visiting Santorini! . On each visit the waiters and waitresses have been as friendly and efficient as the food is exquisite and tasty. It has been This is quality food not fast processed food; sometimes it takes a good while for the food to arrive the price reflects the costs that this involves. As an occasional treat it is well worth it for me. I hope that the sibling venture in Bolton succeeds and that this wonderful Blackburn branch continues to delight diners for many years to come."
