The Michelin Guide is a go-to food Bible of where to eat out and there are a number of recommended restaurants in and around Lancashire.
The Michelin Guide is produced by the French tyre company Michelin, which has been going since 1904, and can award up to three Michelin Stars for excellence to a select few establishments.
Take a look at our top 9 restaurants awarded with a Michelin Star or recommended in 2022.
