Brilliant place to eat.I had the halloumi burger and I will truly say it was the best burger I have ever had.The burger was juicy, the lettuce was crunchy fresh and the fries were perfectly spiced and seasoned.Along with it, we had halloumi fries and a gravy dunk that was graciously given to us by the manger, who was a pleasure to talk to and truly knows what it means to take care of his customers.You can tell all the ingredients are fresh and fairly priced as well - the food could easily be priced higher.We ordered cocktails that were excellent twists on classics.The atmosphere was top tier, especially the retro video games in the basement which added great entertainment to an already excellent experience.

Visit frequently since moving to Lancaster in August 2023;really good atmosphere and popular with students and families due to the well-liked food menu.Good range of beers, ciders and lagers and staff always friendly. Kept clean and nicely decorated for annual events such as Halloween and Christmas.Personally, as a huge proponent of venues accepting cash payments, thus not excluding vulnerable members of society, I was especially pleased to note that All Hopes No Promises Lancaster openly support payment in Cash, that is a big plus from me.

Criminally underrated honestly. The food was incredible, very reasonably priced and the quality and quantity of the meats were 10/10. Hot dogs are honestly the best I've had. Highly recommend the Hole In The Road burger but everything else we tried was perfect too, couldn't fault it. Staff were lovely and friendly as well.

Visited here multiple times with my uni mates over the last two years ( sadly yesterday was our last visit ,as we are now qualified ) but I don’t think 5 stars is enough ! The food is delicious , we have had a range of burgers , chicken strips , fries and gravy and we have never been disappointed, we have always left really happy and FULL !!!! The hand of god burger is my favourite, but the chicken strips are sooo goood ! Large range of IPAs, gins and soft drinks too ! Didn’t catch the managers name but he is hoot ! Always really chatty and lovely to talk too ! Thanks for having us , keep doing what you’re doing !

Incredible food, excellent service and incredible eye to detail. Autistic daughter with sensory issues came in wearing a costume dress (important for later). I asked if we could turn the music down a little due to sensory reasons and the owner was more than happy to help, we order the food and was talking about how my daughter picks from the food that me and my wife order from places she hasn’t been before, not only did he give us bigger portions each to accommodate he also brought another portion of chips separately and said “I think princesses deserve their own chips.” With big chained businesses only caring about turn over, it’s amazing that there’s still really generous people who care about the people that they build the business around. ALL HOPES NO PROMISES 10/10 and we will certainly be coming back all of the time

As an American, I went into this with an “I’ll be the judge of this” attitude, but I gotta say, this was hands down the best burger I’ve had in the US or UK. Perfectly seasoned, flame grilled, good sized. Absolutely phenomenal. Huge portion or chips that were so moreish. Cannot fault this burger joint, 10 on 10. Worth the 18 train fare to get here. Will def be back.
