Booked in for 18.30.
We were on time.
We decided really quickly on food amd drinks however we had to wait around 45 minutes for the starters to arrive. Getting waitresses' attention was a bit challenging.
The bacon cheeseburger was rather dry. Did they forget the sauce?
Asked for desserts. We decided really quickly but once again out table was overlooked and near reaching the point of being ignored. Table 30 isn't a lucky one!
Other food we ordered was okay.

Just had an amazing first visit to the new Firepit at The Rock in Bury town centre! The entire experience was fantastic, from the friendly atmosphere to the outstanding food. Big shoutout to our server, Rick, who was super attentive and made our visit extra special.
We started with the lamb kofta and salt & pepper squid?both seasoned to perfection and bursting with flavour. For mains, we went for the fillet steak, cooked exactly as we like it, and every bite was spot on. The sauces added just the right touch; I went for the peppercorn while my partner chose the blue cheese.
All in all, a brilliant dining experience that we?re excited to repeat. Highly recommend for anyone looking for excellent food and service in Bury!

I am so pleased that The Firepit has arrived in Bury! Having visited and reviewed the Rawtenstall branch, I?m happy to see one on my doorstep!
Upon arrival I was greeted promptly and shown to my table by a polite gentleman waiter. I was shown the drinks menu and the current menu in service was explained.
The restaurant is spacious with a fresh renovation. Subtle and subdued decoration setting the tone for the Steakhouse, highlighted by modern ?neon? signage. The cheeky one liner: ?you look fire tonight? brought a smile to my face!
Recent chart music is played in the background amongst the mild ambient chatter.
The drink I chose was not available however the other flavour alternative was suggested, Cornish Orchards, which is delicately flavoured yet thirst quenching. (Raspberry and Elderflower)
Starters comprised of chicken wings from the lunch menu, Lemon and Thyme seasoning.
Whilst well cooked and presented, the kitchen must have been ?Outtatime? as there was a noticeable lack of seasoning. Back to the future for the wings! I passed this to the kitchen via the staff. 7/10.
A wet towel was provided for the cleanup of sticky fingers which is greatly appreciated.
For mains I chose the fillet steak flatbread. This looked just enough for myself when presented by the waiter. The steak was cooked medium well by my eye, which suited me. However no choice of grill length was asked, so you may need to specify. Complimented with pungent red onion, salad, pea vines and a delicious steak seasoning brings this lighter choice a 10/10 all round. Fries are pretty standard, nothing else to write home about here Other options are available.
I will be returning to The Firepit with friends, as it has been a hot topic between us! Presented on The Rock opposite renown competition, I hope the restaurant does well and remains a staple for Bury.
Easily accessible by Bus, Taxi or Tram - (small walk required) I?d recommend you pay a visit while the Rock is Hot!!!
- Steak on a stone is simply the best.
Wheelchair friendly including toilet facilities
Well done Team Bury! - Thankyou to Martha and staff!
TL:DR? - YES, YES, YES!
Wheelchair accessibility: Weelchair accessible including toilets.

Was our first time at the Bury branch. We have been to the Rawtensall restaurant on numerous occasions & our visit at the new location didn?t disappoint. The food was great but the service we received was excellent. We asked to move tables & were quickly moved with no fuss. The staff were great but especially
Jess, who usually works at a different branch, gave us exceptional service & we were happily surprised with her attention to detail & meeting our needs without even asking. She made our visit even more pleasant & should be commended for it - we have been to lots of restaurants around the world at various price ranges & haven?t received service like Jess gave.
Will definitely return very soon.

We went in today and was served by Lily she was very attentive, friendly and all round lovely. Portion sizes are very generous and the food is delicious. Safe to say we will be coming back and think it may be a regular place we will be dining.

Visited for the first time tonight. Beautifully and tastefully interior decor.
Food was amazing. The beef just melted in my mouth and the vegetables cooked to perfection. My daughter had a medium rare steak which was perfectly cooked.
Only downside was the terrible service.
Our order was taken but menus were left on the table. Food and first drink arrived quite quickly and cleared away. Our table then was not attended to again by any member of staff. We weren?t asked if we wanted another drink or to see the dessert menu. Despite efforts to get some attention from the serving staff we were overlooked. Eventually we asked for more drinks and the dessert menu. The drinks came quickly but nobody came back to take our dessert order. After 10 minutes we gave up and just decided to get the bill which again was a struggle. When it did arrive there was a 10% service charge added. I wanted to ask for it to be removed due to the very poor service, but my daughter insisted on it being left on so reluctantly I agreed.
The food was excellent but more training needed for the serving staff. Even when we paid we weren?t even asked if we had enjoyed our food, was everything to our liking etc.
Still early days for this branch of The firepit to develop and grow so fingers crossed these issues will be addressed and service will improve!

Best thing that has come to Bury, we love the one in Rawtenstall and the sistering village store. So to have one on our doorstep is perfect and is great to support a local business than a chain. Freshly prepared food and very good quality.
Expect to see us often.

We came on opening weekend, food was amazing, enjoyed the steak on a stone experience and it was so soft and tender. It was quite pricey for the 2 of us so expected the wine to be poured when served and think the music wasn't quite right. But we will definitely return for a treat!
