BELLA ITALIA
Formerly known as BellaPasta
My first visit to a Bella Italia was a couple of weeks after returning from a holiday at Lake Como. My 10 year old son was very impressed that he could use his newly aquired snatches of Italian as the waitress greeted us in Italian, he spent the meal throwing in what few words and phrases he had picked up in Italy!!
The restaurant we visited was in Lancaster, our home town, and at that time I didn't realise that it was part of a chain.
I must say that we enjoyed our meal and found the prices reasonable, consequently we have returned several times since. It is on all of these visits that I base this review.
RESTAURANT.......Our local Bella Italia is on the corner of Church Street, Lancaster, and is like a little piece of Italy in the midst of Lancashire. It ...

Advantages: good price, good food Disadvantages: not suitable if you don't like chains
My husband regularly goes out for lunch with his Mum (?Mum and Son? days as they are known) and although they talk about new and exciting places, they always seem to end up at the area about 2 minutes drive away called ?Centre 27?. There are about 10 restaurants altogether in this area, and yet every time they go, they end up in BellaPasta. Calling him a boring git the last time he did it, he explained that they think about going to other places, but end up at BP as it?s reasonably priced, near to home, always pretty empty, good car parking and most importantly the food is always nice.
Last Bank Holiday, Ian wanted to treat me to a meal somewhere, despite me being on a diet, so he suggested going there. I?d been before, and to the BellaPasta in Liverpool, but not for a long time, usually preferring Mexican if offered a meal out ...
Advantages: Great food service and value Disadvantages: Very busy and short of room and privacy
BellaPasta have a chain of restaurants across the country, 63 at the last count and still growing! They would fall into the same category as Pizza Hut and Pizza Express with regards to prices, they aren't exactly cheap but won't break the bank either. Me and my partner have visited the Bath chain on a couple of occasions and have enjoyed our meals there immensely. Being a chain restaurant, I wouldn't be able to say that every single outlet is of the same quality but I would be happy to try out other outlets when I am in another area.
Heres a little more detail on the Bath chain ;
You can turn up without having to book but at busy periods it is very advisable to pre-book as me and my partner found on our first visit, there is a lounging area where you can wait until a table becomes available. This is a very good idea which many ...
