Popped in @ lunchtime on a Saturday. Warm welcome, excellent beer & the food was scrumptious.This is a dog friendly pub, with a lovely relaxed atmosphere, just the thing after a hike through the Wyre forest.Will definitely be visiting in the future

The worst meal I think I have ever eaten. Birthday meal ruined by appalling food, terrible portions and awful service. The Caesar salad with chicken for £15 was an absolute scandal. The size of a small side salad, four measly pieces of over cooked chicken. The ciabattas were tiny and just served with over-fried chips and no dressing. Kids meals an overpriced half arsed joke. Chaos behind the bar and kitchen. No steak turned up for one of our party and they had the cheek to ask for a deposit!! Avoid like the plague, in fact, enjoy the plague more.

From ringing to book, to arrival, service and upon leaving the staff couldn't help enough and the Sunday dinner sharer was unreal.... the beef came pink and it was stunning.... I'm sure if you ask for it a bit more cooked they would accommodate as nothing seemed too much..... highly recommended and I will definitely be returning ??

Very unprofessional from front of house to the chef expecting you to eat raw beef,cold/dry pork and watery gravy.The main course came out when we still had starter plates,to the amusement of the young lad serving us,then very nearly dropped the lot. When challenged about the very raw beef,the chef sent the young girl out twice to defend his lack of cooking skills/customer care,we could go on but enough said!!

Popped in as we were driving past to see if they were doing food, was told the kitchen was just closing as they'd finished lunch but the chef very kindly said he'd make us a meal. Food was amazing, great beer as well and the bar staff were brilliant. Definitely be

5 of us went there on NY Day. The waiter said there would be a considerable wait for food as 'the boss' was having a private due in the other room. We then ordered a bottle of wine which, unfortunately, was not available. On changing our choice of wine the waiter went to check and returned to say they did not have that either. At that point we left. We have eaten here before and everything was good. The young waiter was very apologetic and we were very disappointed.

Prebooked meal for 5 in restaurant and deposit pre paid as requested. Arrived to total disorganisation. Half bar menu unavailable and ordered bottle of Malbec from wine list which then told unavailable. Told only one bottle Malbec in pub but would be more expensive. Asked for details to then be told it had gone and no other Malbec available. Shambolic experience so requested reimbursement of deposit and left!

I have never been to a pub so disorganised EVER, should have known it was not good when you walk into a pub on a Sunday lunchtime and it?s dead of customers and atmosphere. Booked in November for the Xmas fayre menu and pre ordered the day before arriving only to be told after we had eaten our mains that it was only Sunday lunch not Xmas menu. We questioned the waiter about the pigs in blankets and he said it was extra to our reply what no pigs in blankets with a Xmas meal(WTH) it?s not a Xmas meal, well that?s what I booked and have pre ordered He had no clue what was going on so I asked for the manager to be told not seen him in ages he?s a busy man. It was an absolute shambles terrible desserts Apple with smashed biscuit(crumble)in a balti dish what an absolute joke. I have never wrote a review before but please read this and don?t waste your money either stay at home or get a takeaway you will be far better off Merry Xmas

Disappointing! Christmas menu pre- booked. As a celebration crackers on the table would have been nice. Starters lovely, main okay but veg was under cooked. Sprouts were hard. Desserts odd, cheesecake with no option for cream, crumble came in balti dishes with custard served in what seemed to be small gravy boats?!
