Quick info
About Misto Cafe Bar Restaurant
Misto Cafe Bar Restaurant is an independent Italian restaurant at 243 Lee Ln in Bolton, run as a BYOB venue where guests bring their own alcohol to drink with the meal because the restaurant does not serve any. The kitchen cooks food fresh to order. The menu includes carbonara, garlic mushrooms and pizza, so a table can combine a pasta, a shared starter and a pizza. The dining room is small inside, which gives it the feel of a neighbourhood restaurant rather than a large hall.

Customer Review Summary
Carbonara is the dish diners praise most, with one calling it the best on the planet and another calling it perfect. Close behind are the garlic mushrooms and a garlic bread described as light and melting in the mouth. Others single out the chicken in a white wine, cream, mushroom and rosemary sauce, the seafood tagliatelle, lasagne and pizza, with tiramisu and dark chocolate cake for pudding. Reviewers consistently describe the staff as friendly, warm and polite, and say the food is cooked fresh to order and piping hot. Many call the prices good value for the quality, and several like that the small room adds to the atmosphere. One reviewer notes it is always busy and suggests booking early, while another recommends the three course lunch menu. Kids are accommodated, and several reviewers close on the same detail: they could bring their own wine or other alcohol to the table.

“This lovely restaurant recently reopened and after all the good reviews from yesteryear we decided to give it a go. We were not disappointed. Lynn and Alberto are lovely people and looked after us. The price of our meal was very good. The food was delicious. Just wish we’d tried this place sooner. Recommended: 3 course lunch menu. We had bruschetta, garlic mushrooms, lasagne and pizza with a side salad. Pudding was very yummy - tiramisu and dark chocolate cake. Looking forward to a return visit and wishing Lynn and Alfredo every success.”

“We have used this restaurant for take-away food all through lockdown. I can honestly say that the chicken in a white wine, cream, mushroom and rosemary sauce is absolutely gorgeous! Honestly the very best I've ever tasted. Such a friendly welcome too.”

“THE best carbonara on the planet. Lovely restaurant, excellent service. Always made to feel so welcome. The food is all cooked fresh to order and piping hot. Bonus being you can take your own alcoholic drinks and the food is very reasonably priced. Highly recommend a visit!”

“Went today for the first time and it was lovely - food was beautiful and the staff very attentive and polite. I had the seafood tagliatelle and my son had a pizza. It’s small inside which adds to the atmosphere and you can bring your own alcohol”
