Not been here for a few years, but had friends over from Wales. We had a great night, it was really buzzing the restaurant when we arrived. Fab service and lovely accommodating staff the food was great and the chef came out to have a drink and a chat. We will definitely go again.

opted for the meze and overall thought it was good quality food (and there was plenty of it!) its an okd fashioned taverna style interior that's rather dated but would go again for the food

Second time I have booked in here and it was just as good, if not better, the second time around. The food was amazing and the service was brilliant; attentive without being intrusive and very friendly. Just booked again for my birthday!

Important Update:

Quandoo is closing down. This is a planned, phased process and our platform remains available until 30 September 2026.

Great Greek food to take your mind off the January blues and the weather. Went as a family group and all enjoyed our meals - some new options too. Friendly and good service, they're always busy but not too busy to be pleasant and attentive. Thoroughly recommend Sokrates in Horwich.

Wonderfully tasty food and excellent service. A warm welcome on a freezingly cold night. The mezze for our party was a presentation of many different courses of which I particularly enjoyed the grilled vegetables which, although it may sound very ordinary, was in fact infused with all the best tastes of a barbecue, and the aubergine dish. This is not to say that the other dishes were anything but lovely. Highly recommended.

Always reliably good food and attentive service. We always order the mezze, so we can try a little bit of everything, followed by the cheescake with figs. We'd find it really difficult to choose just one main course otherwise!

The food was fabulous as always and we had great service. It was a bitterly cold night and the restaurant was cool but we were offered a table by the radiator. The midweek meze deal is brilliant value.

Great food, friendly staff and a wonderful atmosphere. Also good value. Would definitely recommend to everybody. My cousin and his wife always want us to take them here when they visit us. They have travelled exstensively in Greece and rate this restaurant food as good as if not better than the food they have had in Greece and islands.

Perfect evening! Brilliant atmosphere, and the staff are very friendly and accommodating. There was no push for you to eat and go, which is a good job, because the food was amazing and needed to be savoured! Fantastic value for money! I never write reviews, but had too for Sokrates Taverna! I'll be back again!

We didn't know where to eat - strangers in the area. We just chose this restaurant at random because we like Greek food! We got lucky. .....Though we ate early there was a great atmosphere, the food was great and the staff were really friendly.

Excellent food and ambience. Had the meze banquet and thoroughly enjoyed it! Well looked after and would definitely go back. Only downside was fancied a dessert but the waiter took too long to bring the dessert menu so had to leave without indulging!

Meal & service excellent as always. The staff are always pleasant & helpful & the food is superb. The only negative comment I would make is that we were charged for a beer that we didn't have, but I'm sure that this will be rectified on our next visit.
