Awful, depressing place - Avoid

Before I even arrived I had a bad experience with Victoria in reservations who was rude and unhelpful. My room (and the whole hotel) was tired and shabby. The spa was not clean and there were several drunks in the sauna etc. (one of whom said she worked there !). They were serving alcohol in glasses around the pool area. Breakfast was a disaster-with the fruit salad arriving after the cooked breakfasts...I could go on. ..suffice to say this is an awful place on the edge of an industrial estate.

Friendly local pub

Had a great afternoon here with friends , nice decor friendly locals and a few well behaved dogs. On our way to Blackburn just stopped off for one but ended up staying longer , very nice comfortable pub worth a visit.

Very, very disappointing meal

Just returned from what potentially could have been a lovely meal. Unset table, warm water, and under cooked over priced risotto. When mentioned waitress replied as if trying to educate us that it was 'al dente'....... this doesn't translate as crunchy. Other food items did not match description. Won't be returning, and this probably explains why only 3 tables were taken all evening.

Disappointing.

The single room was dreadful. No chair to sit on. No shelving in bathroom to put toiletries on and the shower smelt of cat pee. Not a pleasant room to be in . Certainly not four star. It smelt awful, staff put bleach down the shower drain. Smell came straight back. Better rooms in a Premier Inn. Breakfast let down by having to wait too long fir your breakfast to come when ordered.

Conned on afternoon tea.

Booked the afternoon tea for myself and friend for their birthday. On the website it says the price is £30. We enjoyed the food and service itself, but when it came to pay, our bill was £60. I questioned why it was double and the waitress said it was pp for the AT. On the website and menu there is nowhere it states its per person. No * used or small print, and was not explained when booked/on arrival and being seated.

Excellent experience

Good, fresh food well cooked, great value for money. Attentive service but not fussy and very well kept beer! As I found out later that they are award winners. The log fire was lovely and cosy and certainly contributed to the warm friendly pub. We will definitely be back, and not just for our 10% discount.

What a shame ...

It's quite simple. If I order steak and ale pie in a beautiful old pub with a pint of Thwaitses, I expect my chips to be fresh out of a chip pan - not chips that have been cooked (probably in an oven) and kept warm in an oven until being served - lukewarm and a bit dry. Basically, if I want oven chips I can have them at home. So it's a BIG thumbs down from me. Shame.

Poor food - rude manager

We ordered two meals which arrived very quickly but unfortunately the chips were cheap/ tasteless and there was a drizzle of gravy on the mince and onion pie meal (the pie was a small piece for a £12 meal along with cheap supermarket chips). We asked for a little more gravy and to our surprise found they had charged £1.50 for the extra. Upon bringing this to the attention of the lady on the till, the manager rudely interjected and stated that they would charge for it.

Dont bother

Food is okish. I had the steak and asked for medium but it came out rare. The grey haired older woman that runs it is so rude and obnoxious. Love, you live in a little pub that no one cares about. If you were so important you would have retired 20 year ago but instead your on your feet everyday. You’re deluded !

I will never stay at this establishment again!

It was the noisiest hotel I have stayed in. Doors banging,people shouting and being able to hear what was happening in the room & bathroom was not pleasant. close to the airport so numerous planes flying over. worst was the cleanliness in the bathroom, wall had something smeared across it, the plug holes were disgusting, thick black gunge put me of using the bath or the basin as it was extremely visible.

Shocking behaviour

The table became available just as my husband was ordering drinks so we all started to make our way through, only to be confronted with the rudest person I have ever encountered. She stood behind the bar and yelled they are not having that table. Absolutely horrified I was carrying my 9 month old grandson, so felt the only thing to do was to leave I have no words to describe the absolute horror this woman was. I would never set foot in that "pub" again.

Very disappointing to say the least

I was looking forward to returning for a Sunday lunch of the highest quality but what I was served fell considerably short. For starters the wife and I shared mussels. I often order mussels as I'm very partial to one from time to time. These were the worst I've ever had the misfortune to eat. Must of been frozen v strange taste. Really really poor. For main I had the lamb rump. At £26 this was quite possibly the most overpriced meal over ever eaten. 3 small tiny fatty pieces of lamb.
