Thwaites has just lost another guest.

Arcane ruling that they cannot accept the Queens shilling after 11.30pm at the bar because they have cashed their till. Inflexible and totally worst service I have had in 25 years of Hotel Travel. Will give this a wide berth and their Sister Hotels.

An Unmitigated Disaster

The Wedding ceremony: The room for the ceremony was not set up as requested by wedding couple - this was for personal reasons suffice to say they were important. The wedding partys flowers were lost - I was asked by a member of the staff if I knew where they were! And I was a guest! At the time of signing the register, it had gone missing, dispite being provided the day before ceremony. Before it even began, the bride (quite understandably) was in tears due to ineptitude of staff.

What afternoon tea?

Receptionist had our names booked in but on entering the restaurant was told they were not expecting us and asked us to wait!! The picture on the website is nothing like what was put in front of us! Sandwiches bland and thrown on the plate !! Restaurant staff huffing and puffing down his nose when asked for something, its not as if the restaurant was full, six of us and another family!!....... Afternoon Tea needs to be taken off the Menu!!

Expensive and poor quality

Firstly we were not allowed to pick our own seats and were shown to a dark corner, the pub was very cold and when the meal arrived I was presented with undercooked veg and slices of turkey which had no taste at all and looked very much like the thinly sliced turkey you get in a supermarket, in fact I have had tastier turkey from a supermarket. The tastiest part of the meal were the mashed carrots. Felt it was money wasted and I will definitely not be eating here again. Don't usually write review

Bitter experience

It really pains me to write a bad review of this pub as I have supported this pub for over 20 years but the sourness of the landlady left an incredible bitter taste in my mouth and I will not set foot in here again. The landlady was behind the bar on arrival but did not acknowledge me or my family. On ordering food, the grumpiness with me and the staff from the landlady was noticeable. The table next to us was served before us despite ordering after us.

Not a good experience

First and last visit, Friday 5pm. Mt husband ordered fish and chips, the fish was small to say the least! I ordered gammon pineapple and egg. The egg was a rubber blob, chips dry and served with salad. We didn't stay for desert. We were asked if we enjoyed our meal when we went to pay! Our negative reply was "oh dear" ( with a smile) we weren't offered a stopper for our half bottle of wine that we decided to take home. We will not be returning.

Really nice stay

The staff could not have been more helpful and even when we were asking for things out of the norm all we ever heard was ‘of course you can’ food was as expected, although the chef might need a slight review on streak cooking but on the whole out party enjoyed the food. The breakfast service was equally as efficient and ingredients tasty and importantly nice and hot. Would definitely consider staying here again if in the area.

Family birthday

The staff were very helpful on arrival by holding the door open as some of our party had mobility issues. Very welcoming. Busy pub but staff very efficient without rushing guests to choose food or drink. Excellent food. Good sized portions. Had salmon and prawn cocktail. Duck chorizo salad and goats cheese parcel. Mains were beef and mushrooms pot pie and thai salmon salad. Very tasty.

Popped in & so glad we did!

We were passing through and saw this fantastic building and were curious as it looked amazing. We were not disappointed at all. I had the Steak and ale pie and although don’t normally get excited by a pie I had to complement their chef as it was perfect! My wife was not disappointed by their burgers either. Lovely Staff, great service, not rushed but not too laid back. I would 100% recommend to any travellers looking for a drink and a bite to eat in Oswaldtwistle (I hope I spelt that right!)

Poor afternoon tea!

Visited in Aug for a school friends reunion. Had to pay £29.99 for this in advance. Which I found odd. When we arrived in restaurant we were pretty much ignored. Asked for a jug of water which we were eventually given after about 20 mins. Afternoon tea was poor at best. Small portions and no staff available to complain to. Will not return.

Oh dear oh dear

Made a telephone booking for four adults one baby for sat evening made them aware re allergies etc I was told no problem I asked for a quiet table with room for a pram again no problem the table was booked for 8pm a little later I recieved a phone call from the staff making me aware that the kitchen closes at 8pm which in my experience is unheard of they also informed me that a disco was starting at 8 30 pm (coincidence?) In other words it was pointless us going really.

Came hungry left even hungry!! Not good at all

Ordered a 'special' red tai curry worth £20. Came in a tiny dish, rock hard microwaved rice, raw slimy prawns and a huge dollop of cheap curry sauce. Both soup starters we had came cold and one tasted as though it was drenched in Sambuca! Came hungry left hungry. Expected so much better from other reviews but wont be returning anytime soon! Awful
