pig and whistle in Preston

Been a few times now for the all you can eat breakfast. Excellent choice of good cooked food. Friendly staff

It was a lovely experience, food was excellent we had carvery's, the meat was so tender and not dry. The child's carvery included a child's make your own ice cream. Which is good for kids. We were allowed to have a birthday cake with candles, the people on the next table joined in singing happy birthday to my nephew. It also had oat milk available. It was a really good experience.

Absolutely outstanding service from David. Thank you 👍

Very nice food and dining area comfortable.

This used to be the best carvery. However the last couple of visits have not been a pleasant experience. Food was cold. When I complained to the wait person, he offered to put my lunch in the microwave🤷🤦. At this point I complained to the manager. All food was removed from the buffet area. Eventually replaced with fresh food. I had a fresh meal. Not once was I asked if the food was ok🥴. I was totally disappointed. I will not be going back. If this business wants to remain open it needs gutting & full refurb.

One of the most delicious carvery that I have been to. Very good value for money

Took my mum out for lunch (carvery). Great atmosphere, fast and friendly staff , very good value for money. The Scottish fella behind the bar who greeted us was wonderfully helpful with the app we were using 10/10 cheers mate.

Warm Welcome on entry and served at the till. Alyssa brought desert for my daughter with a smile and a brief chat. Made my daughter’s day. Food was excellent. I took a small doggy bag home in a tub which Alyssa brought over with a smile. Really enjoyed our experience today . It makes such a difference to a wick bite to ear going out for tea if staff are as lovely as the ones today. Thank you so much!

Love going there, it's always a great experience x

Lots of choice.plenty space for families

The staff where amazing & helpful, just the food could be brought out on a hot plate! The place could do with shutting for a couple of weeks & have a right good renovation!! Outside looks so dirty and out of date. Inside, chairs with holes in. Carpet well worn. Toilets a right mess & smelly.

Fast service the staff were friendly, and the lady on the door was nice and very helpful. The carvery was great, no faults today everything was great

The staff are friendly and helpful, service was great and food arrived fast and was tasty and nicely cooked. Couldnt fault our meals today

My partner booked a table for two as it was a valentines special food was lovely service was good pleasant service, but we was sat a very loud family with a lot of children , while trying to enjoy a meal all we could really hear was screaming children the atmosphere was extremely difficult to enjoy, it really has put us off coming back , totally understand it’s a family pub an everyone’s welcome but the seating could do with some thinking about . Family’s and big groups on one side an the smaller areas for couples to enjoy each others company in a peaceful environment everyone should enjoy the atmosphere other than that it was okay

Love this place, great food I will highly recommend this pub.

Quite disappointed today as the food was luke warm . It used to be a lot better.

Lovely food and service. Could do with a little spruce up in places including the loos!

The best breakfast I have had for some time. The staff were happy and friendly. The food was all nice and fresh.Things like black pudding and mushrooms included. Breakfast pizza and chicken wings (Yup not expected on breakfast but very welcome. There was lots of meat on them and they were cooked perfectly.

Good carvery, sports on TV and friendly staff Jessica MT was amazing help!

Went for the buffet breakfast which was amazing! So much choice, including waffles, chips, different cooked eggs, and everything else you would expect on a full English, plus loads of spreads for toast. You no longer have to pay for mushrooms separately and there is an unlimited tea and coffee option too. Highly recommend

Amazing food and pleasant staff 👍🤗 affordable

Everything was as expected for our second visit.

fantastic carvery and good choice of ale from cask ales to lagers and dark beers.reccomend you try it out.

Great service Can’t complain Scarlett great job

Good carvery. Scarlett very helpful and polite.

Excellent value food cooked really well & plenty of choice of veg.

Nice food and great service. The carvery was great, selection of meats and vegetables, the roasties were cooked perfectly. Will be visiting again soon

Excellent meal and good service. Thank You

Carvery cold drinks quite expensive and toilets dirty

We had a very enjoyable lunch at the Pig recently. Friendly,helpful staff, our kind of food ,all in all glad we went. Hopefully we will be back soon 👍

Ordered a vegan meal from the carvery. When I got to the carvery they were not aware of my vegan option. They did not seem to care. Told them to inform the manager I was not happy. No one came to apologise or make right the situation. The carvery vegetables were OK, at best. Thankfully the gravy was hot to help heat the tepid food. Will not be returning or recommending. DREADFUL!

It's what you expect when younfance a all you can eat breakfast

Great place to come with family... There's usually 16 of us. Fab choices of food and drinks for all. Friendly atmosphere. Great value for money. Wouldn't go anywhere else.

Great service as per usual.....names to mention Danny, Christain, Stephanie and Angela. Emily, Jessica and Julie. Thanks

Nice place with a smiling team . Food good standard for the price so good value.

I was disappointed as the carvery was cold I know it was two o clock it would have been very tasty if it was hot then mash and Yorkshire puddings was stone cold

Disappointed to be fair. We used to come here quite regularly as the food was always amazing. This time, not so much. The carvery veg was all dry and wasn’t much available. There was also a very hard piece of onion stalk/skin that was in a calzone pizza that stuck into my partner’s gum. They did offer a discount/freebie which was nice although we didn’t accept. It’s cheap food and you ultimately get what you pay for.

Delicious food at a reasonably price, staff were all friendly and the deals were amazing, will return here regularly!

The food was lovely the service was great, the restaurant could do with being refreshed up.

I had ‘The Full Works’ Sunday Carvery here which was lovely. The staff are friendly and attentive. A great place to eat in Preston.

It had been a long day, just wanted tea no fuss something tasty, That's what I got happy days priced right to

Lovely hot food staff very efficient and not bad prices would definitely recommend

Decent pub grub. The manager was very friendly and even came over to the table to let us know when the breakfast buffet was ending. I had a selection of starters which were well cooked and tasty. The breakfast options are extensive and reasonably priced.

I go to the pig & whistle regularly but more Importantly every Christmas day lunch. The carvery is always on par and the staff are really friendly. Overall a great friendly place to eat out or drink and just chill out. ☆☆☆☆☆ Highly recommended.

Seriously needs to be decorated absolute tip

More Turkey would have been nice was a small portion for the money

Really nice staff perlite smiling we been for breakfast and carvery food hot and just help yourself

The staff at the pig and whistle are very accommodating to my family needs while we enjoyed our Christmas meal. Always making sure we had everything we needed. We all had the 3 course festive menu which everyone loved as had a good choice for everyone.

Dined with a group of 5 and cannot fault anything . Service was brilliant from everyone and food was lovely . we will return

Food was great service was shocking attitude and arrogance of the staff was unreal

Good food, friendly staff and a nice relaxed atmosphere

Excellent food. I had from the menu my partner had the carvery. Both were excellent and staff very friendly and helpful. would recommend and definitely visit again. 2nd visit food and service just as good. Will make this a regular Food was lovely and atmosphere brilliant until the last round of drinks came. My grandson was questioned about his age and the server would not accept his id even after 3 seperate servers had served his drinks without any problem. She then took him from the table to see her supervisor which I found very humiliating, I would expect the supervisor to come to the table. I asked for The manager who reluctantly allowed the drink but did not even speak to me. We have always enjoyed meals here but I may look elsewhere in future

The staff are very friendly and efficient. There was a good choice of food, which was hot and well cooked. The pork crackling was to die for!!

Food exceeded expectations and whilst busy all staff were very friendly and helpful.

Lovely enviroment and brilliqnt staff. Paige on the bar is a big help and very polite.

Love this place, expecially buffet breakfast and Sunday roast.

Another good lunch at the Pig & Whistle carvery. Always a good meal, good quality and plenty of it.

Great buffet carvery. Highly recommended!

The food and service was amazing and good value too. Would definitely recommend and will be visiting again in the very near future 👍

Lovely pub lovey food lovley service, Scarlett who is always all over the pub working very hard n very professional always wearing a smile, if I owned a pub she is the 1st person is I'd employ but no reflection on any of the other staff all are brilliant love my visits in there. 👍

Meat was small amount Child had sausage and asked for 2 yorkie but refused Ice cream was poor quality

We had an exelect visit, your staff on the bar were so efficient. Especially the 2 tall gents (didn't catch there names) who worked together on our big drinks order.

Jess mt on the bar had great customer service. Served me very quick.

Been in lots of times now & often get served by Scarlett who is lovely to the customers. She is pleasant & does a great job. I have had pub's & restaurants myself & would develop her skills further in the hospitality industry. She has got something extra with people skills. Just needs her confidence to develop further.

Great atmosphere Jessica MT was a great help!

Great place for carvery great prices highly recommended

Sarah and Gemma were absolutely lovely on the bar, could not fault the service one bit. Lovely atmosphere for a drink or nice meal❤️

Good food, good service as always 😊

Fast and friendly service every weekend from Gemma and Sarah. Always smiling and very friendly. came in for a few drinks would recommend

Great service from Jess mt great service lovely girl.

Ive given the food 4stars as even though it was good it was only warm ..we had the carvery maybe they should cover the dishes of food when there's no one at the counter 🤔 just a thought .but it's not expensive so can't complain too much.

Met up with the Carers' Forum for a breakfast meeting here. Excellent food & drink giving very good value to a lovely group of people.

Need to take Dogs allowed off Trip advisor. Just been in and was told Dogs not allowed

We had a very delicious breakfast, we went for the typical English breakfast. Very cozy place and the dinner was also delicious.

Breakfast was nice and choice good especially the waffles so tasty

Staff are brilliant very helpful and the food is great warm friendly atmosphere

Came in for a meal with my girlfriend today staff was very friendly, good service and good food would definitely recommend

Came for dinner today and loved the atmosphere and wonderful service, recommend to anybody and cant wait to go again!

Food was terrible. Pizza toppings raw (veggi) breaded mushrooms were full of water and gross. Childs chicken burger was a big chunk of chicken in a bun he wouldn’t touch it was it was tough. Wasn’t happy at all and felt like such a waste of money.

Food very good, serving staff excellent . But overall pub is very tired. ie scratched tables paint work marked and scuffed. Carpets getting worn.

02/11/2024 Today's food was fantastic and I will continue to visit regularly.

Food is always so nice. The staff are lovely especially the lady who served us, her name is Gill. I think is a manager along with others who served us. Defo come again.

I came for a Birthday meal. The staff reserved a selection of tables ready. The staff are friendly and helpful. However, if you don't order the carvery, food takes a long time to come out. Some of our guests waited up to 40 minutes for burgers and pizza well after everyone else had eaten. Also, the air con either doesn't work or wasn't on and everyone was uncomfortably hot. I presume the air con doesn't work as it looks terribly old looking and the walls had water stains from condensation. There's no windows to open and it made it an unpleasant experience. Aside from the heat and the slow service, there wasn't any other complaints.

Dissappointed today called in for lunch. The carvery was not so nice couldn't have beef as it was all dried up. So opted for pork that wasn't to bad. Wife had gammon and turkey ate turkey left gammon struggled to cut it never mind eat it. First time I have seen wife leave half a plate of food. Very disappointed won't be back for a while. Called in again today 25 10 24 coffee was awful food on breakfast was dried up could not cut bacon fried bread was very dry eggs swimming in oil not pleasant at all. Wife's idea to try left most of food again dissapointing.

Carvery is excellent kids dinner great value for the money

Ordered on Uber eats and was rank, bag that got delivered with didn’t come sealed or anything.

Busy place,nary an empty table,can't fault the food,and easy on the wallet

Slow to be served at the bar, food tasteless and overcooked. Roast potatoes like bullets!

Had Carvery couple of weeks ago,Turkey was dry,Roast potatoes were awful.Been having carverys for quite a long time,always enjoyed it but this was a disappointment.

Went for carvery on Sunday evening after booking a table for 3 people. Nothing mentioned about lack of meat availability when I rang to book the table. Paid at the bar and was told there was no turkey available. Queued up, only to be told, there was only gammon left. Was given gammon and a vegan sausage. Asked for pigs in blankets only to be told they were extra. Given the lack of meat availability I found this to be quite insulting. Gammon was very salty. Shall not be going back again

Friendly staff , great food. Nothing you need to improve on.

I'll go 4 star . The boys and girls put there back into it an create a really pleasant atmosphere ,family couples or like me just a couple of beers an a decent meal. Nice 👍

Had a great experience at the pig and whistle. The food was great and the staff were really friendly and always had a smile on their faces, especially Paige.

Excellent friendly service by Alyssa good environment nice place for a drink
