Travelled from London to visit family moving to the area and went for meal and drinks at the Prince after seeing great reviews. Not at all disappointed welcoming and friendly staff and clientele. I had steak pie which was delicious .Everyone in the family loved their meals too . (Pies -Fish and chips) .Great selection of beers. This is what I call “a proper pub”.See you when I’m next up north.Great prices too.

Heard a lot about the Prince Albert serving lovely meals at reasonable prices and so my wife and I decided to visit on a Friday lunchtime. I rang ahead and booked a table. I'm glad I did as it certainly got steadily busier during our stay. Whilst not vast in internal space it was just about right to create a homely and welcoming atmosphere. A Bus stop right outside but with ample space for parking at the rear it can cater for many visitors from outside the village of Westhead should you decide to visit as we did. We had a very plentiful meal of Steak pie, chips, gravy and veg from the special board. It was over flowing with home made goodness. Everything cooked well including the veg, which often we find is not always the case. Table service from the wonderful Sandra and with bossman Don behind the traditional looking bar made it into a very friendly experiance too. Although not a wide choice of food compared to other places there was enough variety to cater for peoples taste and appetites. What it did mean however was that everything on the menu was likely to have been freshly prepared to order by the wonderful catering staff in the kitcken, this making everything as good as our meals tasted. Overall hot, very tasty, timely and completely filling. A nice lunchtime experiance foodwise made all the better by friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere. Just a pity we didnt have room for a pudding. I would certainly ring to book a table to avoid disappointment and we cant wait to go there again.

Had we not been recommended by friends to try here, we wouldn't have gone in as the outside looks very grim. However, don't be put off by the outside as the inside is thankfully a lot nicer with tables being cleared and cleaned very quickly. We noticed a sign saying how long you were expected to take to eat your meal ? place obviously gets busy and we have been to places were we could not get a table to eat as people were sat nursing a drink or a cup of tea so can see their reasoning. We ordered our food from the menu which offers the usual pub grub, although most of it is homemade, as are their chips, Good arrived within good time and very generous portions. I had the chilli with half and half rice and chips, it's also served with garlic bread. This was one of the best chilli's I've eaten, just the right amount of heat and not full of kidney beans which some places do to bulk the dish up. My wife had the home made steak pie which looked, and she confirmed, tasted delicious. The chips were indeed as good as we had hoped. No room for pudding, so paid the bill and left. It's not as cheap as you would expect but acceptable value for money for what you get with regards both quality and portion. We will probably visit again and some point

This is a pub which is an eating place. Not many places to just sit and drink. The first time I had fish and chips and my wife had soup and sandwich. Both were very good. The next time we were not as hungry so both had soup with bread. Again it was good. The place both times were full of locals eating. All appeared to having a good time. Service was good both times.

What lovely little pub! Really busy for a Tuesday evening. The staff coped really well with the full bar. There was short wait at the bar to order our food. It was well worth the wait, the sirloin I ordered was cooked exactly as I like and was so tender no steak knife was needed. I ordered salad instead of chips, when it arrived it was on a plate of it’s own, the steak was on a hot plate while the salad was on a cold one, nice touch! My wife ordered the steak baguette, it was served with side salad, pasta salad , Cole slaw and home made chips. A huge portion which she could not finish. We really enjoyed the visit, thank you.

Not the largest choice on the menu, but what they do have is absolutely top quality. All chips are hand prepared proper chips. Amazing fish,chips and mushy peas. Top quality slow cooked braising steak that melts in your mouth. Fantastic sandwiches that come with chips and salad. I could go on, but just try it for yourself. Old fashioned interior with real fires in the winter. Great beers with a really good selection of real ales.

We (four of us, two couples), went to the 'the Albert' for lunch, our friends had the fish and chips, hubby had the veggie curry and I had the sandwich with chips. We all enjoyed our lunch.

I'd been on a Korean ship for three weeks and hadn't seen a potato for the duration. A pint of Pendle Witch, fish chips and peas followed by ice cream in a pancake was just sheer heaven. The fish was really nice, chips too and I enjoyed the dessert. It was all served promptly and once again thanks to the staff in my favourite pub. If it's a Northern no-nonsense pub you're after, the Prince fits like an old shoe.
