Stay away at busy times

The service was so slow.. i would never recommend coming here on at Saturday night like we did.. the food was average at best... we kept getting the wrong drinks which my party found frustrating especially after waiting 35 mins for them..

Simply the best pub in Blackburn

As the title suggests, this is the best pub in the area. Great ale, great staff, great food and great atmosphere. Always something going on. Keep up the good work guys..Just stopped off for one but ended up staying longer , very nice comfortable pub worth a visit.

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.

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.

Regular guest but never again!

Confused that after requesting a quiet room - I am next to a noisy lift. Reception seem to think hotel is busy but rooms still available on line, restaurant and car park not at all busy. Why would they ignore a reasonable request from a regular visitor?

Spare your cash for the real spa hotel.

Hotel has no foyer.. its unbelievable. £234 a night for a junior room with no breakfast. Ancient rooms with dirty carpets and horrid smell. Got a room cheaper at a spa nearby not.far from Thwaites so called Spa.

Don't bother going here.

Went on sunday and arrived at about 12:15. decided to have the sunday lunch which was advertised as roast beef or another roast meat, we were told that only beef was available and when it arrived it looked and tasted like very cheap meat, the mashed potatoes served with it were cold. the pudding was ok but the custrd served with this was also cold. will not be going again

Disappointing evening meal

We had a good welcome into the pub and the waitress was very nice and informative . The starters were very nice but when it came to the main course it was a big disappointment. The fillet steak was tasteless, the potatoes par cooked and the duck was tough and raw. While we there the couple next to us sent a steak back also.

Absolutely lovely meal

We came across this pub on a drive the other day and decided to book in for lunch. Really cosy style pub with lovely log fires, different seating areas and a large car park. There are amazing views from the back of the pub. Extensive menu with something for everyone and the prices are decent also far too many pubs these days yet to make their menus posh and fancy but this one is great home cooked food and lots of choice.

Disappointing once again

Alarm bells should have rung large sign outside advertising for chefs, service could not fault, starters pork pie and a garlic bread hot ok. Main courses not so good chips more like roast potatoes, cheese and onion pie Luke warm in middle very uninviting. ploughmans appeared to have been around a while ham dried up. Ham and eggs nothing special very salty.

Dirty room, management needs to pay attention.

It wasn't just slightly dirty: I could run a finger through dust in various parts of the room, there was a leaky pipe underneath the floorboards in the bathroom that was seeping brown liquid and the bathroom smelt damp. The corridors and stairs were dirty, with frayed carpet and stains everywhere.
