Bay horse in Burnley - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great value on the midweek menu. Loved the sea bass in particular. Good food welcoming atmosphere and friendly service......

Lovely pub but terrible food and service. Only had sandwiches and chips but the bread was so hard it wasn't edible and the chips were uncooked. For the price, a complete rip off. Very grumpy rude girl on the bar. Shame, as the pub itself is nice. Definitely won't be returning!

We visited the Bay Horse this week. The menu had changed since our previous visit and was no way near as inviting . First of all the service was appalling we waited 40 minutes for our food and had to go and enquire about it. My food was not edible , I had noodles . It can only be described as noodles in water , which was £22 !! My husband had fish and chips, the fish did not taste fresh and the chips were rock hard . So we will not be returning to the Bay Horse, we will stick with the fabulous Palazzo. Friends who ate at the Bay Horse earlier the same day will not return there for food either. It is unfortunate because the building is ideal.

Absolutely amazing food at the bay. Lovely staff and a great environment. The swordfish was so good!!! 11/10 so so happy to have this place on our doorstep!

This was my first time visiting, after seeing all the delicious photos on Facebook I thought we’d have a treat when my mother in law came up from south Wales. The pub is lovely and the staff were attentive. However, when we looked at the menu we were very disappointed. My mother in law is a vegetarian and there were only 2 options on the menu. One being aubergine which you need an acquired taste for. I have to admit, we were seriously disappointed in the lack of vegetarian options on offer. In this day and age, so many people are vegetarians and to cater to the general public, you need to be offering more selections. I had the seafood pasta and this was delicious. My husband had the steak burger, he said it was nice but it was just slapped in the plate, had no garnish/extras, this was disappointing especially for the price!! We all had dessert and although they were lovely, my husband really wanted the bread and butter pudding as he had seen it on Facebook, all dressed lovely with fruit. However, when it came it was the pudding in a sea of custard, no fruit or anything. This was also disappointing. Overall, I was gutted my experience wasn’t how I imagined it. My mother in law was excited to go out as it was our first meal out without my baby and it was also to celebrate my birthday. Unfortunately, we won’t be back.

Held our daughters birthday party in the private Function Room this weekend. The hot buffet was absolutely spot on and enjoyed by everyone. This included: Crispy Chicken Drumsticks, Burgers, Breaded Goats Cheese, Mozzarella Sticks. Honey and Mustard Sausages and Fries. Followed by amazing tasting Brownies 😋 Definitely recommend

Good food, presentation and service. The vegetarian dishes were different and excellent. Would definitely return.

Been here before,lovely,hence our return visit after a rainy 8 mile walk.Our curry parsnip pie tasted of nothing,burnt potatoes on top.Tiny ramekin of 2 Chanenay carrots and 2 🥬 leavesShoulder of land came sliced in ramekin,left more than ate.Beef ghoulash was bland and everything was furnace hot!the sweetcorn soup was lovely.2 pints a mineral waster and a half was £100 for 4 people.Wont return wish we’d got a Chinese take away.Just changed hands get a chef.

We come here quite a lot, always been super impressed and it’s a nice ‘posh pub’ but recently I just think it’s gone completely down hill. We keep giving the benefit on the doubt and returning hoping it’s a one off but there is always something wrong with our visit. We visit a lot because it’s dog friendly, today I asked if I could have 2 sausages for the dog (which they always do and always have done in the past) in which they said they could only give me chipolatas which were £7 for 7? I asked if they could just give me 2 or 3 and they said no. The past 2 times we’ve had to ask for someone to come and take our food order because we’ve been sat waiting so long and there’s always at least something unavailable every visit. It’s such a shame because there is so much potential but the service is poor and prices are expensive for the portion size you get.

Came for a meal with the family which was absolutely fantastic along with the new management! No complaints and will definitely be returning 😊

Enjoyed lovely food from the mid week menu on a Thursday evening. Everything was well cooked and hot and the service was great. Staff were friendly and attentive, we will definitely go again.

Excellent meal , the makeover/ reboot has worked, new menu is great, looking forward to the next visit.. next time, a midweek special

Unfortunately the food here had got progressively worse since it reopened but it seems to have a new menu, chef and management now. I’ve been twice this week and both times it was excellent. Glad to see this pub turn a corner.

The welcome was great to us 3 and 2 dogs. Bit overloud music, the waiter couldn't hear us in an empty pub! We asked for it to be turned down a bit, but this didn't happen. We had booked and the pub was empty just us at 30 mins after opening time. We sat near the window, close to the kitchen, don't choose this as the smells and sounds are very off-putting. Food choices , the first was unavailable, then the second choice was unavailable. Later a dessert choice was unavailable. From 6 courses, 50% were not available. The waiter didn't seem to know much, said it was his first day, but no support was available to him for these issues. He also kept addressing the ladies as "love" - not the most professional. The food quality when the dish was available was good, not special but acceptable. We won't return in a hurry.

Visited here for dinner, awful experience, ordered drinks, took 20mins to arrive, food order was taken, we waited 50 mins for our food to arrive, very disappointing, I ordered the gammon with egg, the gammon wasn’t cooked , my egg came 5 mins later, sent gammon back , they said they’d cook another but I didn’t want to wait another 50 mins for a meal when the other people would of finished there’s, we ordered another set of drinks, one had to be sent back 3 times before it was right, we were sat near the kitchen, the chef couldn’t cope so the manager stepped in, the way she spoke to her staff was appalling, needless to say we won’t be visiting again

Visited Monday lunchtime with wife and son my son ordered fish and chips though it was good and my wife ordered from the small plate menu Chicken burger and fries I ordered the same from the full menu. On arrival I could hardly notice any difference in fact my wife had more fries there was of course a difference £6 I know eateries say times are tough but its tough for the working man to fund £50 for lunch and leave feeling disappointed eating out is just not worth it

Lovely meal and lovely service. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful. Was a very chilled relaxing meal. Not too busy either. Definitely be back again. Chocolate fudge cake was amazing too

Family day out Visited again wife’s birthday Food there so good Dog friendly and excellent service Such a good choice food and drinks

I visited with family. I’m not sure why there isn’t an option to select this aside from the selection ‘family (teens)… Not one to write reviews or complain however, I felt this was needed. I visited here last minute on Monday lunch time around 1.30pm with my mother, niece and her 1 year old for a quick lunch as the place we were wanting to visit wasn’t serving food that day. The place looked nice visually and wasn’t very busy so we thought this was perfect due to my niece having work soon after our lunch date. We were seated right at the side of the kitchen - where there is a large open hatch where the food is put for the waiting staff to deliver it to the tables and ordered a drink each which was a white wine spritzer, pint of fruit cider and a pint of lager. These didn’t take too long to arrive. The bar staff/waiting staff were pleasant enough however, during our visit we witnessed the chef portray some disgusting and less than satisfactory behaviour. The ladies sat at the table behind us got their food after we had been seated for around 20 minutes. One lady sent her food back due to the small portion she received for the price. I believe this was a chicken burger with ‘a slither of bacon’ in her words to the staff. Once this was taken back to the kitchen, the chef then shouted “oh ffs” rather loudly leading us all to look at each other in pure shock… We were sat there for 50 minutes before our food arrived which was 2 fish and chips and the cheese burger with fries. The wait seemed very long for the amount of people dining. The fish looked nice however, it was sat on a very small portion of chunky chips which were pretty cold (cold enough to give to the just gone 1 year old to eat right away). The ‘mushy peas’ that came with it in a tiny dish were just garden peas that were mashed a few times with a fork and mixed with something that gave them a strange flavour. My fries that came with my burger were hot and probably the best thing on the table. My burger however, was stone cold. I had one bite and it was as if it had been sat on the side for an hour. The cheese was stuck to the burger - like it had been made a while before and just left out. I took the burger off the bun and all the table felt how cold it was. It had minimal salad and a kind of relish that was a very strange flavour. I called over the waitress who was pleasant and couldn’t apologise enough - I sent it back to the kitchen due to the burger being cold, to then hear the chef say “well it’s not going to be hot is it with a cold salad on it.” Wow. Just no words! None. When the waitress came out I called her over again and asked if the chef was talking to us when he shouted the above. She said she wasn’t sure and apologised again. I told her to just remove the meal from the bill as I wasn’t prepared to wait another 45 minutes or so for another as we needed to leave. When paying the bill at the bar the staff again couldn’t apologise enough and assured us that the chefs behaviour had been noted and it wasn’t the first time. The also stated it will be passed on to the Manager. Really disappointed with our visit. I’d maybe visit for a drink in the summer if I was over that way but I doubt I’d ever eat here again.

Lovely meal at lunchtime,very quiet but it was a Monday.Firstclass service. They have listened and are now back doing mushy peas with fish and chips. Good meal deal .

When we arrived for mid week lunch the restaurant was empty but it soon started to get busy. We ordered our drinks which took a long time to arrive, when they did arrive the latte glasses were only partially full. Apparently, this was a normal serving size. We soon ordered our meals, but were told there was no cheese and onion pie as it had sold out 2 days earlier!!! (So we wondered why they couldn't make more over the 2 days). Then we waited and waited for 45 minutes for the orders to arrive. By now the restaurant was busy and there were only 2 servers so they were run off their feet. The bar area was a mess, empty bottles and dirty glasses everywhere. The fish and chips for 2 of our party was very greasy and not nice to eat. The steak ciabatta for a further party member was delicious. Very disappointed with our visit but more waiting staff would probably be a good idea to take the pressure off the staff a little bit.

Visited today and very disappointed. 7 months ago left a glowing review but sadly standard's have slipped and value poor. Ordered a house burger today it took quite a while to arrive and when it did was a little smaller than expected. I had paid...

Greeted by two friendly female staff,didn't have to wait long at all for food to arrive. An extensive menu in a spotlessly clean village pub. Very good food- plentiful and tasty. Highly recommended.

Our first visit to the Bay Horse. Great dining experience. Food was excellent and staff friendly and efficient. Will certainly be dining there again.

We visited the bay horse yesterday evening and had a lovely dinner and a very good time with our dog in their beer garden! Dog area inside and of course outside, our dog even got some treats and a bowl of water! Definitely worth a...

Lovely pub good food friendly staff but can't believe they charged £3.80 for a glass of lemonade and lime!!!! Would have been 5 out of 5. Such a shame they need to charge such a ridiculous price for a soft drink.

Excellent food & service . One of the best we have had . We will definitely return & would recommend it to anyone who is visiting the area

We both had pizza, sides, and a dessert, and both the food and the service were excellent. We will be coming back for another meal soon.

Good food and service, good size portions and a great Sunday lunch. Even made a fuss of dogs too. Will return….price on a average as eating out now has increased everywhere.

Visited yesterday (party of 10). Kaitlin, Lydia & Jackson gave us a lovely welcome and were very attentive to all our needs. The food and service was excellent, the building itself has been re-furbished to a very high standard, we will definitely visit again.

Very busy, short staffed, too noisy with two large parties walking out after waiting too long for their preordered main courses. My meal was poorly presented with tiny portion of vegetable curry sauce. Not worth the money . Felt sorry for the staff who tried...

Enjoyed a lovely lunch at the Bay Horse. The food was delicious and great value. Lovely surroundings and friendly staff. My third visit since the refurbishment and can fully recommend it.

A party of 7 visited last night and we all were impressed with the pub referbishment. The staff were all young and friendly. The food was average and disappointing. The portions were small for the prices you paid. I had the sea bass on a...

Visited last night. Great meal served by attentive staff. Highly recommended. I can't fault any aspect of the time there

Booked over phone for a table of 3. Arrived 20 minutes early, seated straight and waitress took drink and food orders. Place was immaculate, service was great throughout our sitting and to top it of 1st class food. Will definitely return.

Visited here for the first time,as we wanted to visit somewhere new.Pub only been home 5 weeks.The place had wheelchair access,which we needed. We had a lovely family meal.We ordered steak,french onion soup,Sea bass and fish and chips.The staff were very polite and helpful. The...

Been to the Bay about 4 times now, and I have to say I haven't had a bad meal yet.Amy and her team are always attentive and the Chefs are great too always asking if everything is ok. Looking forward to our family Christmas meal there.Just goes to show you just can't please everyone which is sad.

Good parking, good reception, taken to a table, drinks ordered, just a point on the price of a bottle of wine in this pub, your avin a lsugh. Nice menu, not to long to wait both meals delicious. Staff were fine

Vegetarian options limited , hard to choose something off menu. Not many people in…staff hovering ….ordered small Fish and Chips mushy peas…(better going to chippy next door)…. Not worth the money…

We visited the bay horse on the first night of opening, it was very busy, but it did not faze the staff one bit, they were all very friendly and professional, the food was outstanding, we will definitely be going back.

A superb newly refurbished pub in a lovely quaint village. The food was amazing and we would highly recommend the Belly Pork and Lamb Rump, however we did have food envy for the Fish and Chips and Gammon so will need to visit again soon to sample more of the menu. The hosts and all the staff are very welcoming, friendly and attentive. Spotlessly clean throughout.

Well kept but limited selection of cask ales, slow service and little effort put into the meals. For instance no side salad & undercooked fatty sausages.

We had a family get together here on Sunday 24th Sept. The pub has undergone a refurbishment and is really nice inside especially the bar.The landlord was friendly and kept the drinks coming all evening It was a great venue / time to have a drink and catch up. There is a room with a pool table and although we didn't eat here we did see others eating and the food looked good. Will definitely be returning

Visité aquí la otra noche, situado para Cumberland salchichas (x3) y puré. Esperamos una hora para ser servido.! (ni disculpas) había un puñado de clientes en el lugar. pésimo servicio, y cuando llegamos estaba daba con la peor comida procesada visto. La salchicha, 2 de ellos eran muy frito! ¿Qué es esto? El microondas técnico intentó disimular el hecho de que 2 salchichas cortadas en 800 = 4 mitades en un intento de conseguir que había más salchichas lo que decía en el menú.Muy, muy mala comida en lo que podría ser un muy popular pub.
