Duckworth Hall Inn in Hyndburn

Had family meal there a couple of Sundays ago, not many in and it was disappointing they had run out of the Sunday roast, we chose something from the limited menu the food was average, not as good as it used to be

Wow! I wouldn’t know where to start. Greeted with a very warm happy smile, we was shown to our seats which was a lovely little corner, I myself had a steak and it was cooked to perfection. The children are fussy eaters and absolutely loved their food. It’s such a warm friendly environment. Overall we gave it a 10/10 and will be back again very soon.

Booked a table as we’d driven past it a few times since moving in to the local village but never been in. So kitchens been ripped out so visited a few local pubs in the last week and they’ve all been brilliant and this one didn’t disappoint. My partner had a beef roast, I ordered the burger stack as wasn’t feeling the Sunday vibe. Then walking back from a toilet break I see her roast on the table! Well **** me sideways that was a homemade plate of sheer beauty. My Burger was fantastic but next time I’m having the beef roast. These places that put out quality food at good prices need our support. My partner said it reminded her of her grandmas roast and gravy . These local pubs offer various deals throughout the week and have a kitchen refit we’ve noticed we’re so lucky living locally.

My wife and I visited Sunday afternoon and found the staff were very friendly and welcoming. We ordered two Sunday Roasts which was exceptional and great value for money . I would recommend Sunday Roast at the Duckworth Hall.

Visited here with family, staff are very friendly and the food is brilliant with reasonable prices. Will definitely be going back and would recommend.

If you’re wanting yummy home cooked meals, a warming atmosphere and an enjoyable experience then please visit here and support this establishment. As a family, including a baby, we visited and had an amazing time. Staff are friendly, respectful and easy to talk to and the food is so good. Children’s portions are huge so you get your moneys worth! Thank you for a lovely evening and we cannot wait to visit again asap.

We were staying locally for 2 nights and fancied a quiet little country pub meal with good food. We were not disappointed. We had 3 courses and all were very nice as was the coffee and service. Only reason for 4 out of 5 stars is that I was served my soup starter without a spoon and had to wait about 5 mins for someone to appear to get one.

Me and Mum love this place. We havnt been for a while and so we tried today to see what it was like. We throughly enjoyed it. I had the salmon salad. Really fresh tasty salad and a lovely piece of warm salmon. My mum had the fish and chips and she said it was delicious. Really clean and lovely bar staff. Mia and Zina. Definitely will be returning!

Sunday lunch was out of this world. Propper mash. Real roasts. The Yorkshire pudding to die for. Portion large. So tasty and all home cooked. Keep up the good work.

We have been avid visitors to the Duckworth Hall for many years now however, on our last visit we were very disappointed in the food the chips/ wedges were overly done the pie was small, service was ok… The smell from the diffuser was overbearing the tables to close to each other. Such a shame it’s going downhill fast.

We called here midweek and i ordered pate starter & beer battered Haddock with chips & mushy peas. I found the side salad fresh & nicely presented & the bread was good too.However the pate was average at best & seemed typical supermarket low quality.My Fish ,chips & peas was a similar story ,The chips & peas were nice but the fish definitely did not taste like Haddock & if it was then it was frozen poor quality .The batter was smooth & flat and became soggy half way through. All in all its not a posh restaurant & it was not quite at a standard to complain about.

First like to say been to this venue loads of times over years and food been amazing ,but yesterday that was worst food I've ever eaten ,I chef for a living and the person cooking in the kitchen should be sacked if they ate presenting food like that ,I'd be embarrassed to send food out to customers like that.we had gammon ,beef burger and fish and chips ,gammon was small lump of fat hardly any meat on it ,fish was brown the batter not golden,burger and just ok ,chips well they was dark brown burnt looked like handcut with eyes still on potatoes they looked like they'd been cooked and cooked and cooked .£58 quid the meal cost with drinks not cheap so you'd expect better quality ,I will say there wasn't anybody in at 6ish but that tells you everything, never again,the service was very unwelcoming ,staff well not once did he ask if everything was OK not like he had loads of customers. So advise would be give a wide birth this place go stanhill pub or calves head instead .I would also like to say i dont normally put comments on here but felt like I'd spent this money on such a crap experience

After visiting Duckworth Hall for the last 32 years I am so disappointed with our lunch today. My husband and I ordered sirloin steaks one rare one medium to well done. My medium to well done was bright pink inside and both arrived without onion rings nor mushrooms. My husbands steak was rare but full of gristle. At a price of £21.95 per steak I feel very let down and certainly won't be rushing back.

We went on Easter Sunday for a family meal. It was delicious. Amazing food! Not your standard Sunday roast. My partner had the lamb and I had the chicken. Such lovely presentation. Best Sunday roast we’ve had! Was not disappointed.

Went out tonight for Easter Sunday evening meal. We had been there last Sunday for the first time in ages and were not disappointed. The meal was lovely again. I had the minced beef pie like last Sunday 😄....was delicious, and John had the Sunday lunch - roast beef. All very good. The pie is proper homemade and so are the chips.... (and I know cos I asked! ) Would certainly recommend 👌.

Nice friendly pub with very helpful staff...food was good,nice and hot and generous portions.. reasonable priced.,only negative it was very hot inside ,needs some sort of A/C...will definitely be back

3 of us went to duckworthall oswaldtwistle this evening, Very welcoming friendly pleasant surroundings excellent service the meals was beautiful tasty so enjoyable And food served on hot plates The landlord so pleasant nothing was too much trouble Definatly worth going prices good Tuesday to Thursday 2 course meal £14.95 Brilliant value We will be going back again SUPERB

Visited here yesterday for the first time in years. The staff were very friendly and courteous, going out of their way to help. I had the plate meat pie and my friend had the cheese pie. My pie was delicious, probably the best I've tasted for a while and the chips and veg were perfectly cooked. All followed by sticky toffee pudding with a good portion of ice cream. A pleasant dining experience in a nice traditional olde worlde setting.

Nice atmosphere, friendly Staff, great service. The food was delicious. We had a scampi, and a lasagne and a cheese pie.

The owner was very welcoming and friendly. Made a fuss of my kids. However 3 of the items we ordered were out of stock so we were abit disappointed. Our food took quite a while to come. I had salmon salad and the salmon was so dry it squeaked when I chewed it. The rest of the family enjoyed their meals. I'd definitely give it another go as like I said the owner was lovely and it mightve just been a one off. A nice little touch is the toiletries basket in the ladies toilets.

Not a good experience, waitress was moody and looked unfriendly. Not much choice on the menu not as good as it use to be and a lot of things were not available. Food was poor unfortunately we will not be going back.

Went to today for Sunday lunch, all the food was well presented and was delicious. Also the staff were friendly and polite . We’ll definitely be back well done 👏

Excellent meal and drinks at the Duckworth this evening. Wonderful ambience - lovely and warm on frosty evening. Thank you.

Popped in today with my mum and Dad, the pub was so busy for a Thursday afternoon we hadn’t booked but the landlord managed to accommodate us with a lovely table, from start to finish the staff really looked after us and are friendly, our meals were lovely and freshly cooked, me & mum had chicken with black pudding vegetables chips and topped with peppercorn sauce, my dad had gammon steak vegetables chips topped with a lovely egg, we will definitely be back with the family again many thanks to all of you for making us feel very happy and full 👍🏼

Had a lovely meal here today with four family members we had five different meals and every one was satisfied and enjoyed their meal, generous portions and well presented,they have a great Christmas menu which have already booked in early December

Not often do a write a review. Has to be either exceptionally good or exceptionally bad. Sorry to say that this one is due to an exceptionally bad experience. I’ll keep it brief. - Mother and father want to have a few beers and take a chance that there may be capacity for a roast dinner - Father is wheelchair bound being an amputee - So they trundle a few miles along a busy road to enjoy a few beers with prospect (hopefully) of a nice lunch - turns out too busy for food. Fair enough. - turns out not even room to sit anywhere… - barman offers standing at bar only? - but dad is in wheel chair - barman offers no other reasonable alternative in a pub that at that moment isn’t too busy - mum being very flustered at this point is left with very few alternatives… - extremely upset, disappointed and humiliated they turn tail and decide to leave - barman then decides to pontificate and be a nuisance making matters worse What a shocking display of customer service. Industry is supposed to be on its knees and a respected retired couple are basically ‘thrown’ out… pub having lost many £££s at this and future opportunities. My mum, two weeks on, is still extremely upset. Shame on you Duckworth Hall!

This was my first time at this venue. It is located on the coutry road connecting Accrington and Blackburn and there is ample parking. The interior is very traditional and it did have quite a stong musty odour. It is a popular eating place for seniors. Service was attentive, and took slightly longer as it was very busy for a midweek lunchtime. Portions were a respectable size and tasted fresh.

Delicous food, a very cosy little pub. We called in for lunch, we had Chicken and Black Pudding with a Peppercorn sauce which was really tasty and served on a hot plate. The staff were friendly and welcoming. We will be visiting again, may take the Husband next time

Absolutely top notch homecooked food. Went last Saturday, 21st October 2023. 3 friends. I ordered the Mince Beef and Onion Pie. Perfectly thin crispy pastry filled with the best quality minced steak and onion. More often than not, too many onions when trying this dish elsewhere. Thoroughly enjoyed. Friends ordered the small Gammon and Egg and a Chicken dish with Black Pudding. Both commented on how good the food was. Highly Recommended. 5 Stars.

I was looking for Dog Friendly places to eat on our way back from a day out and this came up BUT if you go make sure you book as only the bar area is Dog friendly, we arrived early and the whole place was empty apart from the tables in the bar area but these where taken up by other people and not a pet in sight (the staff seat you). I could understand if it was busy but it really wasn't. I have been a long while ago without the dog and the food was good. We ended up going to the Britannia up the road which i knew only the bar was dog friendly and they where great with the dogs. I just wanted to make people aware that only the bar area is dog friendly so they dont drive all the way there to be disappointed.

Just had Sunday lunch here. Had roast turkey with all the trimmings. It was delicious. Fresh veg etc. My husband has the roast beef and the Yorkshire pudding and it was excellent. Good value.. Great friendly and efficient service. Would highly recommend.

A really nice lunch here. Nice friendly staff and a varied, reasonably priced menu. Nice paced service. Will definitely be back.

My husband and I recently visited the Duckworth hall, both our meals were excellent and can highly recommend the cheese and onion pie. Food, drinks and service all top notch, thank you and we will be returning

Fabulous food , helpful friendly staff ,Great menu and the best cheese & onion pie ever , five stars all the way , thank you 🙏

Fantastic food and extremely friendly staff. Good prices for quality food . We had Sunday lunch and it was beautiful, beautiful presentation. Will definitely go often. Highly recommended 👌

The best Sunday dinner I’ve ever had. Everything was delicious and was beautifully presented. You could tell everything was cooked from fresh and all of us there commented on this is the best Sunday dinner we have ever had.

Very friendly staff and Landlord Good selection of meals to choose from on the menu and specials board. Reasonably priced. We had cavan chicken burger, scampi and salmon, all cooked to perfection and nicely presented. Tried the sweets too, hot chocolate fudge cake and sticky toffee pudding both with icecream, yummy.

Lovely setting in the Hyndburn country side this rural eatery is under new management and thankfully the food on offer is still top class. Definitely worth a visit

Fabulous service and excellent food. My husband and I had an egg mayo sandwhich and prawn salad, both of which were very tasty. The sandwhich came with a few excellently cooked chips (best I have had for a while), which made a nice change from...

New owner but the standards and food were still very good. Visited midweek with another couple and all four really enjoyed both courses. All ordered different mains and nobody was dissatisfied, really enjoyed.

The Duckworth hall never fails to deliver. Consistently good food year after year The cooks are so good producing top class meals. The owners always welcoming and staff courteous.

My goodness how we have.missed everyone at Duckworth Hall and wonderful to see them open again.This is a true English Inn with a good choice of drinks and excellent food. We've had family parties and weekly visits over the years always good.Working away and returning yesterday we were excited to see it open again and with a nice open air beer restaurant garden they have taken great effort to make it safe to visit. Tables are a good distance apart and staff followed all the guide lines perfectly.Food. Loved the new menu but always top of my list is the excellent fish and chips which for me is the best in Lancashire.My wife loves the Gammon which is also nice.Everything tastes just as it should PROPPER HOME COOKING, full of flavour and fresh.Drinks. I'm a bit fussy on Ale and the Theakstons is nice and crisp.Good choice of wine and soft drinks. Would recomend a coffee as well.Well thanks go to all the friendly staff from both Val and myself and we look forward to many more visits.Good to see you back you have been missed very.much.

We had attended a funeral at Accrington Crem and due to restrictions were unable to meet all together afterwards. My sister, brother in law, husband and myself went here. My sister had goggled the area and this came up in the top 10. On arrival we were shown to a table following guidelines. Drinks order taken and menus given. Brilliant choice of food with different plate sizes. Also a separate menu with starters and mains of the day. Everything was done quickly and efficiently. Food was lovely with a good sized portion, three of which were small ones. Staff were very attentive and polite. We will definitely go there again if we are in the area. Thank you for making what was an emotional day an enjoyable one.

Haven’t been here for a very long time but we called in at lunchtime. It was quite late and was empty but I’ve heard good reviews about it. I enjoyed my salmon, very tasty. And very fresh salad. My partner had cheese pie and chips. The pie was OK ,a bit chewy maybe but all in all a pleasant lunch. Would like to try an evening when there’s probably more ambience.

Duckworth Hall provided my mum a cooked lunch and dessert during the pandemic free of charge, we are waiting to go for a large family gathering but due to pandemic haven’t been able to go altogether but have managed to have a lovely lunch with my mum. Service was great, staff are friendly and attentive. Thank you so much for making my mums week every week during the pandemic she looked forward to this every week

Excellent covid procedures. We had two very nice courses each and Boris picked up half the tab! Except for a glass of wine. Lamb kofta starter, mains Steak & musroom pie in ale (choice of potatoes & veg) & prawn & advocado salad, & lemon & raspberry pie all excellent. Cheers - back next wk Boris!

Visited today with my husband, baby and my parents. We had booked before as requested due to the current COVID situation. One way system in place and hand gel at the entrance. Shown to our table, disposal menus provided and now it is all table service to limit people walking round. Good choice of food available, served quickly and the delicious food arrived within a good time.Very helpful and friendly staff, will definitely recommend and visit again.

was out with some friends celebrating a birthday, had a lovely meal, and the staff was just brilliant

Booked a table for 15 for New Year’s Day behind the bar, even rang twice to change the quantity, they said no problem. We also offered to give them our meal order prior to us coming, they said no need!! we all arrived at duckworth hall early to have a drink and settle down before our meal at 5.00pm .we asked behind the bar about our reservation and she looked blank at us saying she had no booking for 15 that night!? We told her the story that we had booked the table and even rang twice to confirm our booking and quantity, she said sorry we have no booking for your name or for a quantity of 15?I honestly think that they couldn’t cope with our numbers so they (management) cancelled our booking but didn’t tell us. It’s a disgusting and a disgrace that Duckworth hall inn could turn away customers when they have booked in September, so if you intend to go to this establishment,, MAKE SURE YOU GET IT IN WRITING, OR AN EMAIL or you’ll probably end up being disappointed and let down like us!!

Booked in person back in September for 15 adults for NY day. Rang twice to add numbers and they were happy to accommodate. Turned up tonight all 15 of us and they had no booking! No apology no ownership of error. Fully booked so couldn’t stay. All went home!! Disgusted isn’t the word

We booked for 15ppl for family gathering in october in person whilst eating in the pub ,so we all arrived today to find booking hasn't even been booked ,with only a sorry ,where the hell is 15ppl on new years day supposed to go ??? Absolutly discussed not even offer of compensation if we booked another time.they have not only lost this booking but all future bookings now and all family used to go at least once a month .do not book here .we have supported this business for years to be told only sorry absolutly disgusting ,I work in the industry of catering and this is not acceptable

Visited just before Christmas for the special Christmas dinner and we were pleasantly surprised by the whole affair as each of three courses were excellent. As we had mostly chosen different dishes from the special menu must congratulate the chef on the splendid job he did.

Visited today for first time with friends,arrived just after 12:00 had booked a table.....good job we did iv never seen a place fill up so fast once doors are opened.Extensive menu mainly home cooked style.we opted for the plate steak pie X 3 and fish and chips X 1. All food was freshly cooked red hot and presented well.deserts were again very traditional.....sticky treacle pud,x2 spotted dick x2 again excellent.Very friendly and professional service,highly recommend.....but I would reserve a table to be sure.Looking forward to a return visit already

Having read the reviews I thought I must try the fish and chips EXCELLENT definitely worth a visit very welcoming

First time here at Duckworth Hall for something to eat and was it worth it. I ordered fish and chips and the fish was the best I have ever tasted. The batter was very light and the fish was very white and flaky. Delicious. I wil be back.

Myself, daughter and daughter-in-law are regular customers at Duckworth Hall for a Saturday lunch. We occasionally try different venues but always return as whilst some are very good they never quite match up to the excellent quality of food and homely atmosphere of Duckworth Hall.

My family goes quite often to the Duckworth Hall. People of all ages eat there. On my last visit I saw everything from young families to a lady having a 90th birthday dinner with her family.. The atmosphere is calm, happy and very welcoming. The staff are very polite and always look very well groomed. The food is always so good.I recommend you try it yourself. You will not be disappointed.

We had an excellent family here and all the family including 2 small children enjoyed there food, pleasant staff, nice surroundings, we have visited here numerous times and will carry on doing so.

Went for lunch with family. Excellent food.lovely welcoming pub,staff were lovely very welcoming and friendly,always smiling. will be going back very soon. Would highly recommend.

This pub is a family favourite. You get good honest pub grub in a traditional atmosphere at decent prices. Can highly recommend the pies! The staff are friendly and go out of their way to help. The management Ange and Phil are professional and cater to your every need. It's a 10 out of 10 for us, very much looking forward to our annual Christmas meal xx

Just had a lovely meal my wife had the sirloin steak I have the fish and chips I’m sure this must be the best place in the area to eat great service and great food

Been here more than once. Always find the food to be very good as is the service and the venue. I will certainly be re visiting.

really good service!!! lovely food and definatly not over priced for quality. i would definatly go again. my new favorite place for a meal out near accrington !!!!!!!!!!!

Absolutely amazing food the management really care about the food they serve which is top qualit and the staff are very friendly. Highly recommend anyone to try.

Great menu, Food lovely, staff friendly, great atmosphere, definitely visit again, highly recommended

On Sunday I just fancied a home made Sunday lunch without all the washing up that comes with it and my partner suggested eating here.

We were visiting the area and stumbled upon this pleasant pub. We had a lovely meal which was well cooked and good value for money.

Absolutely brilliant food! Service was excellent, the girls work so hard and all with a smile on their faces! The portion size were more than enough, and the atmosphere were really good! I would definitely go back, and would recommend Duckworth Hall to anyone! Top food, top service

A family of 3 visited Friday 17 May. One of us had the fish chips and mushy peas. A very good sized portion, served piping hot. Very good value for the money. One had a whopping mixed grill with everything cooked perfect and I had the chicken n mushroom pie chips, peas, mashed carrots and broccoli. They said the wait was around half an hour but the food came within 20 minutes. All meals served piping hot. I’d I had just one little criticism it would be the lack of choices with desserts. I had the caramel apple pie with pouring cream, very nice. Will definitely return in the near future and would recommend.

Just had a meal to celebrate a friends 40th, I have little or no appetite but wanted to join in the celebration, at the time of ordering it was made very clear that I would be ordering from the children’s menu, I am fighting cancer. I ordered egg, chips and garden pea’s it arrived as a children’s portion, I ate only half, not because it was bad, what I did eat it was fresh and tasty.

Let us not beat about the bush . A family of 4 arrived hungry . A family of 4 left extremely satisfied and fully nourished . The end .

We have been here a number of times, the food is amazing and the staff are great. Love it 🙂 Just had sunday lunch. Stuffed but happy 🙂
