As traditional as a pub gets, massive building with open fires, great selection of beers- Hawkstone lager on tap for £5, if that’s not a reason to visit I don’t know what is. Nice people, ideal stopping place for a refreshment after a walk round Darwen Moor with the dog. Few pubs like this now, so get in and enjoy it!

Just a proper local pub. Good selection of beers, friendly staff and a real mix of customers 👌 couple more ales/ipa style beers wouldn't go amiss but I guess they know their customers ..

Can be a little clicky but no more than your average pub, and im pretty sure after a few visits you will be treated like family xx

£4.90 for 'half' a large cup of cappucino, tasted dreadful, very bitter as if made from stale coffee, served by two girls who looked like they wanted to be elswhere. Much better tasting coffee which was cheaper at Mc Donalds next door.

This remains to be a lovely setting and place to treat yourself. We have been used to impeccable standards and I fully expected to be reviewing this at 4, if not 5 stars. We had booked for our anniversary and my wife had added drinks on arrival as a surprise, which was undone by the staff not being aware of this. The restaurant main area had a very large family party (30 or so people) and we hadn’t been made aware of this during our confirmation call - as we may have asked to be placed in a quieter area. The food was excellent and hot, although quite swift in service, so we felt somewhat rushed. It’s a shame that this didn’t love up to expectations, and our experience of our numerous previous visits.

I've seen this place many times while driving but once decided to pop in and see what's it like. The place made absolutely amazing impression. Food is top quality, marinated meats hanging next to the grill and tastes great. Another thing is the place is really tidy and clean. I'll come over every week.
