Tapas in the listed Treasury Building, dim sum and French cooking in Lymm: 13 Warrington restaurants with prices, hours and hygiene ratings, checked 24 Oct.
The Warrington restaurants most people look for sit in two places: Palmyra Square, where Las Ramblas and San Lorenzo share the listed Treasury Building and the Grill on the Square faces them, and London Road in Stockton Heath, home to Olive Tree Brasserie, Hungamaa and A La Turka. For a special occasion, La Boheme near Lymm has served French food for more than 25 years. Every entry was checked against the venue’s own website on 24 October 2026.
We have not eaten at these places for this guide, and nothing here is a review. Each entry sets out what the restaurant says about itself and what it publishes about prices, hours and booking, with the Food Standards Agency hygiene rating and, where a fact comes from somewhere else, the source. Prices are from the venues’ sites on 24 October, and they change often.

How we chose
We started from the restaurants that people in Warrington search for and that guides such as Harden’s keep naming, then checked each one against its own website, its menus and the Food Standards Agency register on 24 October 2026. We left out anywhere rated below 3 for hygiene, which ruled out two places on London Road in Stockton Heath. We also left out restaurants whose own website we could not reach, because we could not confirm their current hours or that they were still trading. Nobody listed has paid to be here. For more ideas, see things to do in Warrington, what’s on this month, the latest Warrington food hygiene ratings and the restaurants in our directory.
