I have just been to lunch at the Green Chimney in Colne Lancashire. I have heard lots of hype about it lately; everybody seems to be talking about it.
So we went today for a girls lunch, I didn't really know what to expect, I have friends who love it so expected it to be nice but nothing like I experienced.
As a lover of Friends, I think it is the nearest I will ever get to visiting the Central Perk cafe. It is so cute and quirky and as I looked around clearly this is the place to be at the moment. The atmosphere is buzzing and trendy and the welcome was very warm, I felt instantly comfortable as I walked in.
We were quickly offered drinks; my diet coke came in a really cute jar. I know this is only a small touch but this place is full of those small touches that made it feel so cool and retro.

Salmon & Strawberry Salad with Liquorish drizzle |

mmm Burger |
The menu looked great, completely different and the food combinations were all so exciting that it was almost impossible to choose. I decided to go for the salmon and strawberry salad with liquorish drizzle. It was so tasty I loved the extra taste of the liquorish.

Steak with Aniseed |
I have put pictures of all our meals on, as they all looked amazing. Especially Jennie's steak, which was cooked just how I like it, so I may try that next time.

Cool Glass of Coke |
We all finished of with a coffee, which came with little hearts on the top. And to top it off it was great value. I loved the whole atmosphere and feel on the green chimney and can't wait to take Chris and the Boys.
