A bit like the Tardis, looks small but is cavernous inside and lacks atmosphere when only a few people in. Long trek upstairs to the toilets. Decor is very dated, cross between an Irish pub and American Diner. Walls full of old pictures and sundry items, no theme, just there to collect dust. No draft beers, and bottled beer pricey....

I have visited this restaurant many many times over the last 20 years and visits here never fail to impress. The menu offers a vast array of dishes with something to suit all age ranges and tastes. On our last visit we shared a combo for two to start which includes cheese nachos, potato skins, red hot chili peppers and... More

The meal was fine - roughly what was expected - the setting was great, service perfectly fine and the decor fascinating. Not sure if this is a chain or a one off but worth the visit just for the look.... Will be back!

Nice clean restaurant, friendly staff. Menu had a decent amount of choice. The heaters in the restaurant are on the roof and were far too hot. Meal was OK, kids had fun with the crayons and colouring in stuff, kept them occupied. Children's meals were a little small. Overall a little overpriced for what you got.

Visited Pacos recently after a while of not going there. It was reassuring to see that the service and the quality of food remains high. The choice on the menu is extensive and there is something to suit all tastes. Much of the food on offer is sourced locally which is another plus. Good value for money. Looking forward to... More

Poor night at Paco's went with family, french fries not cooked on all 5 portions, food taken away and fries served up again still not cooked, by this time main meals were starting to get cold. My daughter in laws veggie burger was very soft & mushy, had to leave over half of it. Waiter was out of his depth,... More

dined with friends (table x4) on Saturday 27 April'13. Service was quite good, given busy night and food was also pretty good. Probably not for the romantic night out, as you have to shout at each other to be heard, as background noise from everyone else in the room seems to get amplified.

We were after a bog-standard, fulfilling meal. Paco's satisfied this need! The lasagne was rich and the spicy sausage & pasta dish was just right. Meal with drinks came to £40 for two of us, so it was reasonably priced, the service was fine and overall it it can't be faulted if you're after a quick and easy meal which... More

Food superb, service great. I've been visiting Paco's on and off for 10 years and the place is always great. The only downside is that the chairs are so uncomfortable and the rims of them dig into your legs. I really struggled to get comfortable tonight and they really need cushions. Staff very attentive and food arrived in good time... More
