Old Leyland Gates Leyland in South Ribble

We’ve been here a few times in the past and it’s always been pretty good but wow, on this occasion it was absolutely terrible. Burnt/dry beef burger and a chicken burger that looked like it had been steam rolled before it was served, there was hardly any chicken in the fillet. The meal also came with 2 onion rings… and a tiny potion of chips. Really disappointing.

Always a good pint and friendly service

Staff were friendly place was clean & good pub grub plenty of choice

Popped in for a steak. Wow! It was delicious! Cooked to perfection, just as I remember steak . Well done 👏. Thanks

Ive been a regular on and off since 2005.Pub has had several landlords but current ownership and staff are very good.Great for kids and always good for sporting events.

Pretty good place. Andy was the manger. They have darts, a decent pool table. Screens etc and the most CCTV cameras I've ever seen in a pub 😁

Good service and great atmosphere when the football is on

Good food, service mostly good.

Steak was not as good as i remember a year ago. It was tasteless. Chips was good.

Bar staff brilliant, food is ok, bit pricey for what you get, lager prices not cheap but it does have a good atmosphere

Amazing food at reasonable prices. Friendly and professional staff.

Great atmosphere!! Love the karaoke nights ! Always a good time at The Old Leyland Gates

Great atmosphere on a Friday night, friendly staff

Such a good environment. Staff always welcoming and service good

Bar staff are absolutely great! Vibes are immaculate every time. Highly recommend!

Brilliant staff (mckenzie+ Paul)

Amazing staff and atmosphere!!!

Lovely local pub and great food at good prices. Nice family treat out.

Not fancy food but well cooked, tasty and affordable. Great service and good for family parties or couple. Seperate section for pool, TV football.

Outside or inside seating either various places to dine. Service was very good from the bar to the waitresses, 1/2 pint of draft coke rather expensive at £2.80, you can now order via an app but placed our order for food at the bar and it arrived within a timely manner. Decent sized portions. Waitress checked on our food ; we had an issue, no problem sorting it out so great customer service.

Amazing food, atmosphere, and staff. Can't recommend enough. Paul, the assistant manager, is very helpful, and it's great to see a manager interact with customers. The staff are friendly and efficient. The food is unreal! And priced really well too. We will return regularly.

Brilliant local pub... great atmosphere and the staff always go out of their way to be helpful and friendly. Highly recommended 👌

My husband went for lunch with a friend. He was going to have fish and chips but that wasnt available so hd had an all day breakfast

Great affordable pub with good food

Good food and service very reasonable priced

Relaxed attend with my 11 year old daughter she enjoyed the chilled out environment

Just had the best Gammon Steak I have had ever had.

It was ok very quiet only beer had .

A favourite place to visit with good food, great staff and a great atmosphere.

Been a few times and never disappointed

love it here, always a great atmosphere and cheap food and drinks, they also do loads for charity

I visited the pub on Tuesday the 25th of june to watch the football match and all the staff were very friendly despite how busy it was. 10/10 pub

Had a father's day meal , no complaints, had a steak and it was spot on . Did have a drink as was driving

Virtually empty tonight. Football on all screens, but nobody there to watch. Fish tasted a tad odd... I hope I'm OK in the morning...

Standard pub grub don't care much for all this on a skillet and peas in pots but food was good came out very quick

Since I discovered this pub 2 years ago, it has become my new local due to the fantastic staff, atmosphere and affordability. The best part of this pub however, is the fantastic atmosphere and hospitality on match days. I spent the world cup watching every England game at the pub, all major premier league and Preston games, and I'll be returning to the pub for the Euros taking place now. A special shout out to Paul, who much like Southgate manages the England team well, manages to make sure that I have a great table, great food and drink and overall great experience, complete with a waistcoat himself. The whole team at the Leyland Gates are fantastic, which is why I and the rest of my football supporting mates keep coming back. Thank you!

Great food great value took the grandkids and the dog lovely friendly staff too

Lovely sat out side with the family

Food wasn't to my liking. The steak was too fatty to chew.

I only got a lager, so I can't really comment on the food. However, the staff were friendly, polite, and efficient. Worth a visit.

Yeah was much better than last time staff where lovely as well

The atmosphere is really nice and friendly.

Service would've been 5 stars too, but was very busy, which I suppose is a good sign!

Went for lunch just hubby and myself first time in the old Leyland gates Lovely place will definitely go again I could not fault it just spot on.

Food was good, but delayed getting to us. We were informed of a potential delay due to a large party being in. Collection of our main meal plates was slow, had to chase them up to have them collected. Very apologetic and offered us a complimentary drink.

The pub was very clean, staff polite and welcome and reasonable choice of beers. The menu was full of good choices and deals. The chicken mix platter for two was excellent value at £15.99 and more than ample in quantity and quality. Will definitely be paying more visits to this pub.

Food was really nice especially the Jamaican stew, staff are friendly

Nice evening good food choices at sensible prices, food quality was very good excellent service and a good choice of beers etc

First time i have been here, decided to eat and both really enjoyed the food, chef on Melissa 5 star. Staff were great.

We visited the Old Leyland Gates today and tried the vegan spicy vegetable flatbread it was delicious. We were very impressed with the jack fruit wings and vegan nachos also. Music is a perfect volume so you can still chat comfortably. Food arrived quickly from the friendly staff. We will definitely return. It would be nice to see even more vegan options in other areas of the menu too as the food is so nice.

Clean, friendly staff, good food

Food was terrible table of 4. Flat bread pri chicken was dry and the flat bread rock solid. Chips on all the meal are from dirty oil. The chips where brown. What a waste on money do not waste your time. Should of gone maccys the standards are at a reasonable level

I came for a meal on Tuesday night and about an hour after I’d eaten I had severe stomach ache! All night I barely slept and then the next morning at 6am I woke up and threw up. I’m 100% sure that I’d had food poisoning because I know the stomach pains from last time I had it! I’ve been here a few times and it’s been really good and it’s a shame to be writing this but I had the burger and chips and I thought it looks pinkish when I ate it but just ate it anyways as I thought it was okay. I was really poorly from this and I’m still not great. Unfortunate to be saying this really! Staff and service were really nice though!

Place was very nice and clean good service and would visit again...

Really good inexpensive meal. Didant have to wait for ages for meal.

Went out n a Saturday lunchtime and it was a little quiet but it had a nice atmosphere, the food was excellent, the staff were really friendly and helpful.

Came with my children and parents for tea Wednesday evening for my mother's birthday. The majority made great use of the mon-fri 2 meals for £11.95 I think it is. Three lasagne with ciabatta garlic bread and fresh side salad and a hunters chicken and chips placed on a bed of fried onions. All good delicious and will come again.

We went for a family get together and a meal. The pub is okay. They had a small but adequate gluten-free section. The service was good, but the food was not. My steak was chewy and gristly. Very poor quality. Although with my steak they did get the level of the cooking correct. My daughter was not so lucky. She asked for a well done steak, and it came medium-rare. She just couldn't eat it. I can overlook the drinks as it was just after Christmas and they would have been very busy, but the food was poor.

Only re- discovered this place during the Rugby World Cup. Chain pub but staff are belting. Great venue to watch sports and the atmosphere is up there with the best. Highly recommend for a standard chain type meal but particularly to watch sports.

Had an amazing Christmas Day Service was brilliant

Brilliant Christmas Lunch, very impressed with the service, staff couldn't do enough for us.

Bar staff were polite but unorganised. Flitted from one end to the otherof the bar, so unable to see who'd been waiting longest. Good atmosphere though.

Nice pub reasonably priced drinks and a good plance to watch the footie

Every year the family from the north and the family from the south head to Preston cos we live in the middle for a festive menu Christmas meal. This year was the Old Leyland Gates. 3 courses £17.99. At that price it would be hard to complain and I won’t. It’s was actually very good! The menu was compact but with something for everyone and some different options to the regular menu. The food was fresh, cooked to order and the staff were great, even offering drinks at the table a few times. My dad go’s nowhere without his dog and this is a dog friendly pub too. Not been there before but we will definitely go back.

Great pint great to watch sport to also thanks for charging my heated coat haha

Food was lovely, staff were very friendly and helpful, great service will visit again

Good food, good vibes, but quite dusty in some areas and long service times. All in all, recommended for a night out to eat for less than 5 people, any more than that will result in not eating food.

Went for a quick lunch and wasnt disappointed. Good value, tasty food served quickly. A good place to visit with families too

My meal was already on the table when I arrived and I didn't pay so can't say anymore

Better than last time Booked a table for 10 people, not realising football was on. Our table was reserved but when we arrived other people were sat on our table. The manager quickly moved them on, but then we constantly had dirty looks and huffing and puffing the whole time we were there because disgruntled football fans couldn’t sit down. Quick service at the busy bar, but it took almost an hour for our food to arrive, and then 45 minutes for 3 kids desserts to arrive after having to ask twice. By this time the pub had quietened down drastically after the football was over. Food was better than last time, although out of the burgers from the already limited vegan options available. The flatbreads were drowned in peri peri sauce, although a great hot taste, the flatbread was soggy and swimming in it making it almost inedible. The soft tacos were lovely, as were the skillets that the kids ate. Very disappointed in service time. We arrived at 4pm and left at 7. It’s alright for a cheap tea out with the kids, but I’d avoid football nights because even the “restaurant side” was bursting with people drinking and watching the football.

Great pub...been going in on-and-off since mid-2000s. Superb karaoke on Friday nights.

Brilliant gluten free menu, Brilliant pub would visit again.

Beautiful pub inside and out, food cooked to perfection and very nice. Its now become our local

Very friendly vibe,staff were helpful and very pleasant

Food was good and value for money.

Good food,very reasonably priced,quick service.

Didn't eat but pub is good. Will be going back

Great place, fast chargers too, food and service was excellent

Good food. But very disappointing service. Food took nearly 1 hour to arrive after ordering. If there is not enough capacity then seats need removing or advising about the wait.

Nice clean place, good selection of food at reasonable prices. Staff are lovely and welcoming

Really enjoyed the chicken wings and chips I ordered. My last meal here was really overcooked, so I was apprehensive. I was pleasantly surprised this time! All the staff were lovely & helpful.

Went for karaoke . Great night . Friendly atmosphere. In general great night

We decided to stop off for some food on a long journey from Bristol, we are so glad we chose this pub. The young ladies working behind the bar and serving food were lovely and polite and always smiling. We went for the sharing platter meals both deciding to have one each. I had the chicken one, there was so much food and it was all cooked really well and tasted great. My husband went for the burger meal, he said that it too was cooked really well as being such a large burger it was not at all dry and very tasty. He tried to finish it all as it was so good he didn't want to stop but the burger beat him. Thanks very much for the great meal, if we are in the area again we would definitely go back.

Even though im from Nelson i manage to get over to Leyland once a week and visit this excellent pub. Management and staff are second to none and always make you feel very welcome. I would highly recommend this venue 10/10 👌

Made for a really nice spontaneous Sunday afternoon.

Food has always been good and so has the service

Good place to go for a nice tasty lunch .

Only had a drink but good choice.

Went on a Friday lunch time with my auntie, 2 meals and 2 drinks for less than £20 service was amazing and food delicious, we will be alback again soon!!

This place has now got its act together since opening. The service is good the food is excellent and the staff are friendly and attentive and everywhere is clean. With live music and quizzes and live football. The only downside is they let dogs in. Anywhere, in my opinion that serves food dogs should not be allowed or at least keep them in one particular area, dogs when wet smell and I for one don't want to eat next to a wet dog, except assistance dogs.

Great dog friendly pub 👍 reasonable prices for drinks and food. Would highly recommend 👌 👍 👏

Great place to watch football. Food is pretty good for price and to much while watching the game. Manager is top, really accommodates the crowds as much as possible for the big matches. Staff are friendly, polite and helpful.

Meal out with the wife. Food and drink what you would expect from a pub

Much better than it used to be, better menu, dogs welcome (dog ice cream and nuggets available). Still sticky tables and menus sometimes though.

Amazing service and food was amazing. Big shout out to Mia who served us. Very friendly and made us feel so welcome. We'll be back 😊👍

Lovely pub, always packed when I go in and dog friendly, friendly people

Good service nice food and kind staff

Been a while since ive been in. Lovely atmosphere. Nice friendly staff. Had the chicken sharing platter which was great value and more than enough for 2 for a lunch. I shall be back again. Thankyou for a most pleasurable time 👌👌👍👍

Burger was moderate and the chips were cold, couple of times this has happened now but I know the place is a decent place so I'd definitely go again.

As we entered no staff to greet us or take our drinks order. Showed ourselves to the table and sat to look at the menu, again went to the bar and no staff until another family came in. Staff on front of house helpful and food was a little disappointing, mash was like smash out of a packet, Food came hot which was good but not 100% good.. abit disappointed.
