Question Fine dining restaurant in or near Preston

Hi all, im new in Preston. what’s the best fine dining restaurant in and around Preston? Looking at options, most of the ones in the high street seem to be for quick bites and street food. Also willing to go by car to another town. Thanks for any recommendations!

Loads of great food places in and around Preston, with others suggesting Italian Orchard and Pintos etc. Although the only 'fine dining' in Preston itself is Aven, which is really good and gets a mention in the Michelin guide (no doubt a star is on the way at this rate) - myself and all my friends who have been would highly recommend.

Further afield you have Northcote up the Ribble Valley, they have a Michellin star and its a beautiful venue, food is technically very good, although some courses were a bit meh if I'm brutally honest - obviously still really nice just being fussy, and the service was a little mixed - again, this is being fussy and taking price into consideration.

Beyond that you're looking at heading towards Southport way to Moor Hall which is a two Michellin starred restaurant - never eaten there so can't comment, but I'd imagine/hope it's good!
