Bay Horse Inn in Lancaster

Had a very enjoyable meal. Happy.

Superb Sunday lunch. My beef was perfectly pink, vegetables were spot on, plenty of gravy. Staff were all lovely and made sure to cater for the vegetarian member of our group. Lovely place well worth a visit.

I’ve just eaten the best roast beef I’ve ever had (and I’m over 50). Just don’t tell my Mum I said that! Stumbled across this place by chance on a journey home from the Lake District and so glad I did. Pink beef, crispy roasts and Rich gravy - perfect.

We attended the Spanish evening in the barn restaurant. The tapas were fine. The paella was a disgrace. I don’t think the chef has ever cooked a paella before white rice base and a few prawns on top .The musicians who were expected to play Spanish music turned into a practice session of anything they could play. Didn’t recognise any Spanish music throughout the evening I spotted some Moroccan Kazbar music if that’s near enough.

Great food using local produce, lovely staff and good service. Fantastic location for the M6 but feels very rural 👍👍👍👍

Excellent as always ! The food and service has always been of a high standard. It has a really nice atmosphere, unlike some other places I’ve eaten at. I’d happily recommend it to everyone and I shall return…… hopefully very soon !

For me it’s not always about the food or for that matter the service, it’s a combination of both as without either it spoils the meal. Luckily the Bay Horse have both and both were very good. Unfortunately I didn’t catch the name of the two girls who did front of house but they were both excellent, very welcoming and efficient with everything we needed. I was slightly disappointed we were restricted to the Sunday lunch menu (my fault for not checking) but the beef we had , served pink, was lovely, the roast potato’s however needs longer as they were on the hard side. All the puddings were fantastic, I had the sponge while the better half had the mousse which was to die for. I look forward to trying the a la carte as I will certainly be back.

Visited for Sunday lunch. Met and seated with a pleasant welcome. Another staff member took a drink order that came promptly and took food order. Food arrived and was delicious, very tasty and hot and beautifully presented. We then waiting approximately 20 minutes for table to be cleared after finishing despite every other table being cleared as diners left. Then asked do we want a dessert menu. At this point we declined as the desire for dessert had passed . After a great start it was disappointing with wait. I would like to state by this time the bar and restaurant were virtually empty so not rushed off their feet.

Over the last couple of months we have visited here 3 times , twice for Saturday lunch for a Birthday and Mother’s Day and once for Sunday lunch The service and food have both been excellent on all occasions whilst on the more expensive side you do get what you pay for, good size portions and high quality ingredients. Would love to see the menu change more frequently , having said that this is our new favourite place

Food - and service - truly exceptional! We visited with family (including a young baby and a dog) and could not have been made to feel more welcome and comfortable. Several members of our party are fairly serious foodies and one has serious allergies - the entire experience from arrival to departure was unbelievably accommodating and beyond delicious! We couldn’t have asked for a better grand finale to our five-day stay in Lancaster!

Visited on Mothers’ Day with my family. They were very busy but the service was excellent. My two year old is too small to order a children’s meal so she was sharing mine and the waitress got her a Yorkshire pudding which she loved. My eldest chose from the children’s menu which was choice of mini roast options, so nice to see proper food for the little ones! The food was excellent and we all thoroughly enjoyed it.

Excellent food and excellent service

First time tried this place and won’t go again Choice was appalling for a plant based eater There were two options but stuffed aubergine at £18 is shocking and not many like an aubergine as the only veg The other option was a curried suet cap - sounded vile and I hate fat suet Asked chef any other options and “No” Honestly would have been easy to toss up a plant based burger as my son had a steak burger (again that wasn’t enough to fill him with a few curly fries and no salad dressing) I chose the mushroom soup starter for my main but a vegan wouldn’t eat this as it had cream in it but I had no option. Lastly son had bread and butter pudding I have never seen one made with zero fruit in it - just a gloried plain sponge pud !!!! Sorry but for a “gastro” pub this seriously did disappoint and we won’t go back Ridiculously overpriced pub food with little choices.

Went for Sunday Roast Dinner absolutely delicious. The beef melted in the mouth The mash was fantastic full of flavour Roast Potato cooked well and of a good size. Five different vegetables all cooked to perfection. Every one knows a Sunday Roast needs a good gravy and again it was lovely.A good size plate full of food. Desert was a delicate light sponge The place itself was cosy with enjoyable back ground music. The staff were lovely and attentive. Definitely going back for a second visit.

Loving the quiz host lindsey is stunning. Will definitely come to this quiz again had the best night ever. Xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It’s a lovely place, although it’s a quiet time for everyone the staff here were very friendly and helpful. I was with two friends and we all thought the food was delicious. It will not be long before I will be back.

Absolutely Beautiful pub in a beautiful location, good service, very welcoming.

Good Sunday lunch. A British tradition, can be got wrong, they didn't. Cosy place, warm welcome from the staff. I am learning that one should avoid starters when having the Great British Sunday Lunch, as pubs serving this are invariably super-generous, and it's a shame to leave stuff on the plate. Would do it again.

Fantastic food, lovely and delicious. Staff we're very helpful couldn't do enough for us kept checking if everything was ok, would have been nice if was asked how do like steak cooked one of them wasn't cooked enough for a couple of guests, mind and friends was perfect. Will defo visit again sometime soon

Sunday lunch. Fabulously cooked roast beef served with a vegetables that were cooked perfectly. With lush gravy and Yorkshire pud it was perfect. Service excellent

We love the bay horse. The food is brilliant, the staff are welcoming and capable. We can and do take our dog too. Had to log on to write a review for tonights meal. We all had starters and mains, every plate almost licked clean. I had chicken, it was delicious, the mash was so creamy and whatever the thing was with it was soo tasty. The boys had lamb and both said it was the best lamb they had ever had. Food compliments from everyone throughout our meal. Everyone had a dessert beside me (I ate a bit of everyone's and again, fabulous)

Have visited the Bay Horse several times a year for the two decades and always been greeted by lovely staff serving top notch fare. One of our favourite restaurants….highly recommend!

The best meal I’ve had in long time,every course was delicious and good size portions. The service was top notch and the gentleman who served us was great, a real credit to the establishment

We have eaten here in the past and had a very good experience but it has been a year since our last visit. The Inn was very quiet with few customers and the atmosphere was therefore lacking. The food was extremely disappointing - Cumberland Sausage lacked taste and could well have been a cheap supermarket brand, the Sea Bass was swimming in oil. The service was OK but somewhat detached and nobody asked if the food was OK - that's really unusual. The price of approx £70 for one course and one drink each seems much higher than other resturants in the area and the quality just wasn't there to justify it. I hope this was a one off as it is a lovely place that has been so good previously. However, we won't risk it again any time soon.

Tucked away amidst idyllic landscapes, this place has the coziest vibes, complete with a stunning garden and a toasty fireplace. The food was simply phenomenal! If you appreciate high-quality meals I can't recommend it enough!

A superb meal and sevice from start to finish. The food is just amazing. We highly recommend the fillet steak - it was excellent.

really enjoyed our evening here . nice and cosy restaurant serving nice food . menu slightly small for some people who might be fussy but we really emjoyed it . thanks

Had a fantastic Sunday lunch. The beef was superb, nice and pink with big roasties and creamy mash. Rich gravy as well as buttered carrots and cabbage came alongside. All lovely, only tiny niggle was that the veg portion was on the small side. It is not the cheapest of places but you certainly get what you pay for in terms of quality.

To be avoided if vegetarian as only one option on the menu. The soup was served cold, although they did remedy this when we found a member of staff to complain to.

Excellent country pub. Fairly limited menu but good quality. Very friendly and efficient staff. Need to drive there but keeps it fairly quiet.

Nice location overlooking Morecambe Bay. Very good menu selection - some unusual choices. Reasonable priced wines. Food is really good. GF and Vegan catered for. Very pleasant and efficient staff. We really enjoyed a great lunch - Thank you Bay Horse

Really rate this place, the food is fantastic and service was so friendly and knowledgeable. She told us she had been there for 10 years. It says a lot about the owners and the business. Look forward to returning soon.

Beautiful lamb, duck legs ok, amazing high prices!! Definitely not good value for money.I am aware the offer is limited in the area, but it’s not a Michelin starred place! 10 min away you get same culinary experience at half of the price!! Not to...

Hope it was a one of we regularly visit this place and have to say its allways been amazing but todays visit was poor bad service and the food was average sorry guys but needed to say hope it was a one of 😢

Food was incredible, such high standard. Beautiful countryside pub.

From the moment we arrived the service was amazing - with a smile and attention to detail. We were a large party celebrating a 60th birthday. Having a private dining area overlooking the gardens looking out to fields with cows in them. It feels so...

1st visit and it won't be the last . Tastiest Sunday Lunch we've had for years . Price is quite high £29 for 2 courses pp , but we never mind if the food is good . Highly recommend

We celebrated my sisters 60th birthday here. The food was absolutely amazing. The service we received was exceptional. From all the staff to the surroundings and ambience, couldn’t have asked for better. Highly recommend.

We were greeted on arrival and asked where we would like to sit. The Sunday Lunch menu had everything you would want, though not too large. The food arrived and was a delightful surprise. Fresh and plentiful. The chefs sure new how to get flavour...

We had a table for 4 in the bar area , The food was top class with the most amazing steaks and sea bass , lovely setting and really friendly staff . Definitely will be returning. If your looking for meal deals and cheap food...

Decent , quiet country pub just south of Lancaster. Food good...cold slices of sirloin especially so. Excellent Bowland Beer. Worth the drive out of town.

Beautiful roast beef dinner in a beautiful garden.

Having seen all the 5 star reviews, decided to give it a visit, staff quite friendly, we were given the Sunday menu, fixed price of £29.50 for two courses and £34.50 for three. I had. The Sunday roast beef and my wife the fillet of...

Lovely place just stopped off for a drink, lovely atmosphere staff friendly and helpful

Lovely food ,staff very helpful great place to dine!!

two descent chefs now produce hot tasty food beer quality is excellent Mark certainly knows how to keep real ale always spot pub is getting busier. Great for football 6 screens beer garden

Love the venue and have eaten here before and loved it so this is purely based on group menu. If you order off the normal menu you would not be disappointed. The staff are very friendly and polite but not as attentive as they have been previously as we kept having to ask for drinks orders. The room we were given was excellent with a roaring fire and doors to open if you got too hot. The table were set out in an n shape so you had your back to people. Arranging them in a square so we could sit around and talk to everyone would have been much better. As I understand it the chef was off so everything was prepped earlier. Starter was a few cocktail sausages, bread and olives. We had a buffet of two warmed up dishes that were edible but average tbh. Chicken and cream mushrooms with rice and a duck hot pot! Everyone seemed to enjoy the puddings. I expected more from a £40 per head menu not including drinks so was a little disappointed with this visit.

It's a while since I last visited this establishment and it was good then and now even better. I haven't had as good as a Sunday lunch in a long time . Twas excellent

Fabulous food and service, even though it was busy we never had to wait at any time from ordering to paying. The ambiance was warm and friendly. The meal was very expensive but fresh ingredients and absolutely delicious with very clever mix of flavours and...

This is a fantastic place to visit and we've always had excellent food each time. The steaks are top quality. The staff are lovely and provide good service in a nice cosy setting. I would definitely recommend anyone local or near the area to visit...

It's a wonderful place, lovely staff and their peppercorn sauce it totally amazing. Well worth a visit

New to the area and visited for Sunday Dinner not lunch, so dark on arrival. Lovely and warm and staff couldn't be more attentive and understanding to Our unusual party of 6. Crab starter and Seabass main delicious 😋

We were driving up to Scotland for the rugby and searched this pub through Trip Advisor, and we were really glad we did. It was only 5 minutes off the motorway junction. Great lunchtime menu and wonderful welcome. We will be back

We visited the Bay Horse Inn for Sunday Lunch for the first time a couple of weeks ago. It was delightful. The food was delicious, everyone was lovely, and the dining room had a nice atmosphere, with beautiful views. We will be back, thoroughly recommend.

Really good food, reasonably priced. Pleasant service. Nice atmosphere.

Great food, drinks and service all at a reasonable price. Visited for Sunday lunch and everything was top quality. Will definitely be visiting again.

Excellent hotel and staff very attentive. Rooms have been refurbished. Visit regularly to attend Haydock races which is only a 10 minute walk away. The food is really good.

Never fails food is amazing 👌and service is excellent nothing ever to much highly recommend

Set in a rural location, this cosy pub with burning log fires was a lovely surprise when we made a spur of the moment decision to go out for tea. Really good choice of meals, all home cooked and delicious!

great wee pub in the countryside it's not cheep but worth every penny great food real fire brilliant if you love good quality well cooked to a very high standard this is for you would totally recommend to anyone

Came recently, always a reliable array of food with generous portions. I had the banana blossom vegan fish and chips and it was the best I've ever had! Lovely staff at the bar and always prompt service with a smile. Definitely be coming back

After reading excellent reviews, we decided to visit whilst on a short holiday. In brief… upon arriving (after pre-booking) we were told that the main restaurant was too busy and so we were ushered into a room with no one in. The room was cold...

OK, but expensive food and drink. Nothing special.

What was a lovely place is just a joke now. We used to enjoy it just a few months ago but not anymore. A rasberry mocktail that I enjoyed last 2 visits is now just a pink lemonade, but still charged at £7. I have told the bar staff its not a mocktail just a joke, but the response was "we didn't have anything to put in it", but still charging for a mocktail that its clearly not. Poor service, not even busy but we waited for a long long time and eventually had to call for waiter to take our order and same with deserts. Food was good, no complaints there but never again. If you can't make a mocktail, not even tried, you shouldn't be charging for it. So disappointing, I thought it was the best place around there but clearly not.

Again we stopped off at The Bay Horse (just off the M6 at Jn 33) on our way home today. A dreadful cold & rainy day. We walked in to a roaring fire & a friendly welcome from Josh who made our lunch time perfect....

We got off the M6 after being stuck in traffic for 3 hours, and were delighted to find this pretty little place. It was lunchtime on Sunday and, despite the fact that we only wanted coffee, the staff were friendly and welcoming. The coffee was good (came with hand-made chocolate truffles!), the loos were spotless, we left feeling heaps better.

A lovely restaurant/pub, we were squeezed in without a reservation and enjoyed a burger and the veggie fennel, both were superb, as were all the staff.

Lovely place with nice menu. Shame about the lack of veg on the Sunday roast and potatoes were tepid. No check back otherwise we would have mentioned to the staff. Lack of WiFi for the location was disappointing

Lovely setting, good choice on set Sunday menu. Starters lovely and roast beef nicely cooked. Roast potatoes luke warm and the portion of vegetables to share between 4 was on the skimpy side. Annoying given the location of the establishment was the lack of useable customer Wi-Fi. We as a group wanted to look at photos stored online and were unable to due the antiquated indecipherable Wi-Fi password given out on a post-it note.

Well what and amazing quiz and quiz host not only in he entertaining but very handsome too ;) Great night out!!!!!!!

Lovely environment, lovely staff, brilliant quiz nights. Food is very nice and a great family atmosphere

Had a stop over on traveling to south of England from Scotland Very friendly staff great food and good beer what else could you ask for

My good buddy Mark A and i went here on Sunday at 6pm 10/7/22 before we did our 15,000 ft tandem parachute jump on Monday 11/7/22. Lovely beetroot salad to start and then sea bass in lemon and dill sauce with fresh veg. One beer...

Excellent meal not cheap but hey ho

Top notch food - more fine dining than pub grub Nice ambience service friendly but uncertain (maybe new staff)

Idyllic spot of a summer’s evening. Burger was an art form and staff very friendly!

Nice menu. Fillet steak was very good and baked pickled cabbage was excellent however the chips were dry and tasteless. Good friendly service but the restaurant is lacking in warmth and atmosphere.

The Food was Excellent second to none. Great relaxed atmosphere with really helpful staff. Would really recommend to visit for food and great hospitality.. 😊😊😊😊😊

I expected this place to be fantastic from a recommendation, food was good but not great. One massive let down from my experience….if you are going to an establishment like this you would expect the cheesecake to be a proper one that is baked, not just cream cheese with a biscuit base. I think they forgot to add vanilla too, it was limp and had no flavour at all, just cream cheese and I didnt eat it. The only plus side of my experience was the staff were outstanding, polite, attentive and just all round nice, a credit to the place without doubt, shame the food didn’t match up.

Phoned in advance during our trip home from the Lakes. The telephone welcome was as warm as that which greeted us when we arrived. Oh wow, the food! Quality, beautifully prepared and presented. We both had the slow-cooked duck legs which, with the delicious accompaniments,...

Absolutely brilliant gourmet pub restaurant. All food sourced from local suppliers. Three of us for a birthday dinner. Sampled duck leg.fillet steak and Goosnargh chicken breast. Not cheap but then good quality food and service shouldn't be. We will be back....oh and the sticky toffee pudding is yum!

Lovely welcoming, efficient staff giving great service. Fabulous food. Lovely countryside, warm and friendly atmosphere and environment. A definitive must try.

We were staying five minutes up the road and given the reviews, we decided to book for dinner on Sunday 10 April. Oh how I wish we had elected to go back to The Mill at Conder Green. The menu was limited which didnt worry...

Preparing for a wedding reception in a couple of weeks time, very helpful staff and a nice place.

We stopped at this pub on our way to the lakes for a weekend away. The pub is lovely and really cozy. We sat outside as we had the dog and we couldn’t of had a better view. The girl that served us couldn’t of...

Great, authentic pub experience with a pinch of high culinary art. Totally recommended and we will be back.

Excellent food Great and friendly staff

Visited for dinner after hearing wonderful things. V disappointing considering how expensive it is. Wouldn’t recommend.

We stopped here for lunch on our way south. Wow, what a find. The staff were so friendly, attentive & professional. We & our dogs were made very welcome. The pub is lovely but the food!. Well it was the best we've had for ages...

It's a treat, food is something special. Will be back.

Lovely staff, food and beer. The food is a bit on the pricey side. Free overnight campervan parking if you have a meal is great though.

We love the Bay Horse Inn. We have long established that, from Manchester Airport, we cannot get to our local in Kendal before last orders, but we can just make it to the Bay Horse. Always feels as if our holiday starts, after the trauma...

Came across this cosy friendly pub today after walking our dogs, we got a very warm welcome, it’s extremely dog friendly, lovely home cooked Sunday lunch, staff couldn’t do enough for us and our dogs! They made a great fuss of them and brought them...

Had a lovely lunch here with friends today. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The young ladies serving us were very attentive and friendly try re a credit to the owners of the Bay Horse. I will definitely be visiting again and would recommend anyone in the area to book a table and enjoy it too!

Honestly cannot rate this place highly enough! I have eaten here on numerous occasions and I have never had a meal here that has been anything but fantastic. The waiting staff are friendly and they know what they're doing. The portions are large, filling and...

Excellent food drinks and service

Excellent menu with good choice of wines.Special mention of the mulled wine which was really nice

We expected, as minimum, a choice of two vege starters and two main courses. The meal was a great disappointment for those of us who are vegan/vegetarian, despite the lovely staff who served it. The meat-eaters had a good choice and were happy with their...

We love it here for a relaxing drink.

Lovely premises but don't serve food all day.
