The Sandpiper - West Lancashire

I was in need of a good place to feed a group of four of us, with one child and two vegetarians in the party - a friend recommended The Sandpiper.

Went to the Sandpiper for lunch on our way to Martin Mere.

Very nice place to visit. Nice relaxed atmosphere and the food was good quality for the price.

We have visited this restaurant before because we love the atmosphere. This time, we came specifically for the Christmas menu. The food was delicious, although the pigs in blankets were a bit dry and we weren't sure about having a Yorkshire pudding with a turkey dinner. Overall, it was a very enjoyable meal and we would definitely come back. Thank you.

I had difficulty with the menu at this restaurant because I am following a low-carb diet and most dishes came with chips or potatoes. When I asked if I could substitute haloumi fries for chips, I was told that I would have to pay extra for them. The chips on the menu were priced at £2.95, while the haloumi was £3.95. Instead of being charged the difference, I was charged for both. The waitress initially said I could have the haloumi, then returned to say I couldn't, but asked if I wanted a salad instead. In the end, I just asked her to bring me whatever. I have never been to a restaurant that was unable to accommodate such a simple request. I ended up with steak, vine tomatoes that I had to remove the stalks from, and haloumi fries that were quite dry in my opinion.
