Food was a little disappointing,to be fair I could have eaten 2 of what I ordered,but it's every time I've been to eat there

Stayed 2 nights in the Premier Inn next door. Booked into the restaurant both mornings for breakfast at 7am as our daughter was in a local dance championship, so we had to be up early and eaten to get to the champ. Both mornings the restaurant wasn't set up and the second morning the chef couldn't even be bothered to turn up. This is appalling service when they say the 1st booking for breakfast is 7am. We tried to wait but at 7.40 had to leave with no cooked breakfast. This comp happens every year at the Blackburn Empire theatre and I don't think we will use this hotel and restaurant again. Even the photographer who was staying in the hotel had to go without any breakfast.

Food was good considering its mass purchased, you couldn’t expect better really to be honest. So that was good. People seemed enthusiastic towards the children. Sadly this is where the goodness ends. Placed order and payed, had not decided at time of ordering if we wanted a sweet after. Other in party did. Turns out that we did want to have one. Told kitchen was closed. If it were closed then how could the 4 persons in our party then have their pudding made up? No where did it indicate that they closed the kitchens at a particular time. Nor were we advised. This is pretty poor on the part of the restaurant. I guess we now need to ask from now on if they close kitchens at a particular time.

We have today been for the unlimited breakfast as our closest brewers Fayre has now closed. Very impressed with Oakenhurst Farm as a restaurant. Really bright and well spaced tables. The breakfast selection was very good and the cooked foods were great. We are a 5 (2 adults and 3 children) so value for money on the breakfast cannot be beaten as the children eat for free. The staff were friendly and helpful. Well recommend highly and will be returning again as this will be our go to place for eating out breakfasts

This used to be a nice place however the prices have gone up whilst the food and service quality has gone way down. Once our meals arrived, some of the food was overcooked and the ingredients were lacking. What was supposed to bacon looked like burnt sinew. We were asked if we needed condiments which only arrived after asking a second time and by then 2 out of 4 diners had finished. To top it off, my 5 year old was missing part of her meal which after informing staff never arrived. Very disappointing and it will a long time before I return.

We always bring my 9 month old grandson and Trish is always making sure he gets to try anything he wants and never has complained about the mess he makes eating. Emma the chef is also fantastic and caters to individual needs of our booking and always cooks our breakfast perfectly 👌 would definitely recommend for anyone to come here 😀

Waited nearly an hour, the mixed grill was burnt, sausages black, asked for medium steak it looked to have been cremated. Smothered chicken was very average and for what we paid definitely not worth the money, combine that with screaming kids running about whilst trying to eat and have a conversation it was rubbish!

The creamy chicken pie was bloody gorgeous and I would defo recommend it 😊,everyone else also enjoyed there food.. The only thing that grated us at our table was a member of staff called LUCY!!! She was going from table to table and asking them to do a review for her telling them to say she was fantastic this that and the other so she could win some chocolate!!! I even heard one lady at her table say after she harassed them at there table, I quote - so she wants us to tell lies for her lol I mentioned it to the manager but she wasn't too bothered saying that she is a bit of a Firecracker she knows all the customers!!! Asking them to leave a review about her and telling them to say i quote - that she is amazing so she can win some chocolates is abit much!! Food was really good, all the staff really nice,lucy was nice apart from being a highly strung Firecracker 🧨 🤣 Chairs and tables could do with an overhaul as welll as they all looked really tired Other than that spot on food...

All the staff at Oakenhurst Farm are lovely, very welcoming & never sit down. Trish runs a tight-ship as manager which results in an organised restaurant. The only thing which let's all Brewers Fayre down is the food choice but is ideal for a quick bite after work or easy meal at weekends. Great atmosphere, fantastic staff xx

Absolutely awful experience here today. Visited with 4 children 5 adults. 2 of the childrens meals came out instantly (main before their starters) the other 2 children had to wait. 2 adults where having a carvery so as we all wanted to eat together they waited until the other food arrived. 40 minutes waiting someone then came over to tell us the receipt machine hadnt been printing properly and they wanted to confirm what sides the other 2 children wanted. We confirmed, they then brought the food out 15 minutes later. The food was awful, service even worse. I asked for a manager waited 5 minutes then had to ask again! Surely if someone is requesting a manager it shouldn't need to be asked for twice. A friend did have a birthday party booked here for a few months time and requested to cancel this due to the lack of service.

Made a booking for a table online as we were meeting family halfway and both travelling over an hour. Recieved email of cancellation 10 mins before but hadn’t seen it. Walked in to be told our booking was cancelled because they were full. Whole pub was empty. Woman very rude. If there was a big booking, why not say that? If kitchen closed, say that! Shocking!

Everything about this Brewers Fayre is great, though especially the food and the service. Had the Smothered Platter, which includes a 4oz steak (upgradeable to 8oz, which I did), chicken goujons with cheese, a gammon steak with pineapple slice, chips, coleslaw, a fried egg and onion rings. All the food was outstanding, particularly the steak which was genuinely the best piece I've ever had. Chips and onion rings plentiful and done perfectly. I'd recommend this! We were served by Patricia who is always great and friendly. You always get a good impression, that customers' experience is the top priority, and it's always been quick too. Just overall an excellent experience.

Ordered starter and drinks. Share platter was on the burnt side of crispy. No side plates provided. Waited 40 mins for main courses to arrive - Both were cold side of tepid. Fish and chips with unwanted burnt black batter scraps hidden under fish/ fajita chicken burger with extras that didn't arrive. Waitress was apologetic and took them back. Unfortunately, after waiting for another 25 mins, the replacement meals were poor quality and practically inedible. Waitress offered us free desert as apology but we weren't waiting around for more of the same standard of food so we declined. Worst £21 each we have ever spent. McDonald's and McFlurry here we come. We won't be back!

Never in all my times I’ve been to Oakenhurst have I been given inedible food not once but two times today. Had the Sharing Platter for Starters which arrived looking on the wrong side of burnt!! but we could see they were busy so ate what we could and then waited nearly 40 minutes for our Mains - Fish & Chips and Chicken Fajita- both arrived lukewarm, not even tepid but merely lukewarm and was awful, spoke to the staff member and she arranged for them to be replaced, another 20 minutes waiting until food arrived only to find that the Fish was totally inedible- just brown mush in batter, staff member asked if everything was ok and showed her the Fish only to be told “oh some people don’t like skin”! I nearly fell off my chair - skin is usually on the bottom of a fillet, not all of it! She was very apologetic but we just wanted to leave - £42.00 literally down the drain, most expensive Chips & peas I’ve ever had!! It was literally awful and I’ve been going for Years but never had such a problem with the food before and won’t be suffering it again - shameful and someone needs to have a word with the Chef!!

This brewers fayre is in need of an update. Only 40%of ladies facilities working. 2 of 4 on hotel side permanently locked, one without a seat, and one which didn't lock. On the other side, one lock didn't work, one usable. Obviously busy as we visited Sunday lunchtime, but food, to be honest, below average. We ate carvery - parsnips a mix of undercooked to ok, roast potatoes barely looked roasted. Sprouts either overcooked or held too long, meat tough, lacked flavour. Crockery left on tables long after being finished. Disappointed to be writing this, this used to be a nice venue for family to meet up. Current opinion dictates not to bother!!

So I went for breakfast with a friend and I was surprised to see how busy it was. The food was self-service buffet style, not too much waiting around but I have to be honest I prefer table service. That being said, the food was good and hot, not an amazing choice but certainly enough. The staff were all friendly and very busy, but still had time for you. Would I go again, probably!

Initially booked a table for a birthday. Arrived to absolute carnage and zero organisation. Cutlery was dirty and had old food all over it. Decided to go order some food after being seated and was then told it was a ONE HOUR wait after booking a table. They didn’t care that half the group had food but the other group had to wait ONE HOUR after booking a table. If you want a family meal this is 100% not the place to go. Not one bit of customer service.
