Really friendly and helpful bar staff. We were visiting Moor Park for Radio 2 festival and due to the heavy rain didn’t want to take our camping chairs in with us so they let us store them at the pub. Good pint and cheap too. Would return

Visited the pub after a few years and was very pleasantly surprised. Pub was very clean, including the toilets, outside seating area ample and clean Staff were chatty and friendly. Only popped in for one as we were passing, but stayed for a few because the atmosphere was fab. It's under new management and the landlady clearly has the drive and passion to make this place a happy haven for locals and people further afield alike. We need more old skool boozers like this instead of soulless chain pubs. We'll definitely be back ❤️

The Hesketh is a beautiful atmosphere to be after Elaine Bradley took over the place, it’s a nice friendly pub for football and pool, a jukebox that’s up-to-date with the latest top hits charts, friendly staff and also lovely tasty pints with a line clean once a week. Free jukebox and free pool every Sunday and Monday and drinks £3 offer every weekend with selected draught drinks and 25% off drinks every Monday from 4pm till 7pm. The pub is clean and it smells lovely, toilets are clean. Even half time food at football games. And you can hire the back of pub for a party too! 5 STARS 🌟

Had an excellent chat with the Landlord or Publican. Felt like having a second Pint for the walk to my accommodation. Learned loads about the cleaning process for the lines and taps as I was slowly drinking my second Pint. (I wanted to enjoy 😉 it.) Think it was a fine choice purchasing a few bags of crisps and peanuts for the walk home.

No atmosphere at all, know it was dinner time but it was depressing and dark My Son and myself ordered a Steak pie with peas and chips. The steak pie was like having a lump of dough shoved in front of you and the pastry round the pie was never cooked in a million years the chips were French Fries. Enough said about the peas, I didn't enjoy the meal at all

Shame I can't put 0 stars. Since this pub has changed hands it's gone shocking. Made 2 separate orders but told we was together. Food came out separate, my sister had nearly eaten hers before mine had come, hubby left most of his as chicken was dry and rubbery, soft drinks where flat and not fizzy. Waited 30 mins for icecream desserts, and another 20 mins for spoons so icecream was melted. Didn't want to complain as pub was packed but rang to speak to manager when arrived home and was told we left a mess, what do you expect with 4 kids under 5 years old? WOULDNT RECOMMEND TO ANYONE!!!

Great staff and a good pint... Please get the old DJ back (Mikey)... The Saturday before last, we literally sat outside in the rain as the music was SO unbearable. Uber-rave bassline noise, more suited to a rough city-centre nightclub.... Maybe some of the chav-types are into it, but, nobody seemed to be enjoying it that night.

Came in and ordered garlic mushrooms, mixed grill and brunch and requested food all came together. Garlic mushrooms was brought out on there own by a member of staff in a hoodie and leggings, once finished our mains was served to us again by the same member of staff in a hoodie, both meals was missing grilled tomatoes and the mixed grill had no onion rings, we then pointed this out for the member of staff to go tell the chef who was also dressed in her own clothes, we got served our missing onion rings then had to ask again for the tomatoes. We then found 2 hairs in the mixed grilled raised this to the member of the staff in the hoodie who then approached who I presume to be the manager, who then took the food away we got no apology of anyone, they didn't even come back over to the table just waiting for us to leave, rude staff and I think they need to invest in a uniform and get some manners

I visited on October 31st and had a fantastic experience. The restaurant had a great balance of tables—plenty of open seating, yet still lively with other patrons. The environment was exceptionally clean and well-maintained, creating a welcoming atmosphere from the start. The food was delicious, with each dish showing quality ingredients and careful preparation. The flavors were delightful, and everything arrived at just the right temperature. The staff truly stood out for their politeness and attentiveness. They made sure our needs were met promptly without being intrusive, contributing to a seamless dining experience. Overall, a wonderful visit that I would highly recommend!

Pleasant surroundings, decent sized cup of coffee, some cafes seem to be using doll’s house cups these days. The toast was awful, barely browned (saving fuel?) , huge thickness, completely tasteless. Don’t know why some cafes serve “artisan” bread, might it be so that they can charge what they do under the guise of being different from your average bread. Well, it was certainly that…

Usually love coming here but was horrendous today. Table next to us was shouting loudly top of their voices. When asked if they could be quiet we were told no as they are staff at their other restaurant. Other people asked to move table. Sadly ruined my evening to the point o didn’t even eat my main. Asked if I could have it to take out shocking that they prioritise their staff over customers. Won’t be back for a while just think it’s ridiculous how loud people are without any consideration for others.

The best subway in Preston City centre. This for me is because of the staff members Ali and his sister (sorry forgot her name). Everytime I go in they are very welcoming and friendly. They even remember my order so I don't even need to ask. They know the order is for my 9 year old daughter and always ask about her if she is not with me. An asset to your company.

After finding out both of the Chinese buffets had been closed we wandered upon this little place, so we thought we'd give it a go . What an absolute mistake that was. Our first clues should have been that the place was empty, our second clues should have been that the menu is only in Chinese with very little English on it, our third clue should have been when the waiter was unable to translate what was on the menu. Our fourth clue should have probably been the first three things we asked for they didn't have .So once we had deciphered the menu we had to wait a considerable amount of time to actually get the meals and when we did my partner's came considerably sooner than mine, I was left telling him to eat because the gap was so large his was getting cold. He had some sort of soup and sweet and sour chicken. When mine came I was in utter disbelief . My lamb kebabs were the most skinniest, minimalist things I don't even think I could have called it a kebab! More like strings of meat and they were considerably spicy which was not mentioned in the menu (in the little english it had) or waiter. It was about this point when they showed up with the drinks we had ordered more or less when we came in, they did apologise to be fair that they'd forgot but considering we were the only people in the restaurant I'd figure we were pretty hard to forget about, they didn't offer glasses either. 5-10 minutes later they show up with my apparently 'roast potatoes', crisps, we call them. It genuinely was as if they'd emptied some walkers into a bowl and popped them under the grill. To my dismay two Chinese looking gents walked in and their meal looked absolutely amazing! Also, I hope you can eat with chop sticks as no other cutlery was provided (even for very sloppy looking noodle soup)Their English was very poor, so poor they couldn't even translate their own menu I think they should really consider taking some English lessons considering they are so close to the university and would have so much potential for business from it .The whole meal itself cost just shy of £29 and I left hungry, disappointed and in utter disbelief, I am genuinely surprised my partner paid for it I thought he would have put in a complaint and told them not a chance in hell. You could not pay me to return to this place and I wouldn't recommend it as far as I could throw it.
