The Dog Inn in Ribble Valley

A warm welcome, good atmosphere and great service, would definitely recommend.

Traditional pub food. An excellent lunchtime dining experience with a wide choice of beers. All staff are friendly and polite. Shout out to Nicky and Andy, thanks. Couldn't do enough for you. Down-to-earth pub. Cheers! Just as good again today.

Called in for a couple of coffees ☕ but when we wanted to reorder they'd stopped serving after 3pm.

Lovely traditional old pub,dog friendly, with a decent beer garden and friendly helpful staff

My husband and I love this family-run hostelry. Delicious home-cooked food with a wide choice of menu that’s accompanied by a daily “Specials” board. Christine and Chris with their worthy team of helpers can never do enough to delight their customers. The service provided is always very prompt and ALWAYS served with a smile. From within the delightful ambience of a traditional village inn, it’s service at its very best. Genuinely so. Well done all!

Lovely oldy world pub. Food was lovely and value for money.

It is a great place to go, and we had a wonderful lunch. The service was great and friendly, and the place seemed really popular.

Nice old fashioned pub with good service and atmosphere.

Great meeting place for a catchup with friends. Great affordable food and excellent selection of beers.

We took the dog in to the Dog Inn! It would have been somewhat ironic if the Dog Inn wasn't dog friendly. Thankfully they were happy to accommodate us and our dog for a lovely sandwich lunch. We chose to sit out the back in the beer garden

We discovered this pub by pure chance going for a walk nearby and it was brilliant . Been back for second visit and although we were slightly after the food service time they still looked after us 💪🏼❤️ absolutely love this place and the staff are brilliant 👍🏼

Great pint and lovely garden....

best pub in the area by miles, cheap local ale, friendly staff, can take your dog, great atmosphere

Lovely staff but very mediocre frozen food in fact my paella looked liked something the dog sicked up won't be going back in a hurry

Fantastic pub in Whalley. Came on the off chance for a pint and stayed for lunch. Reasonably priced ales, fabulous value food and superb cooking. What a great find. Lovely selection of real ales too.

We have always dined here when we have visited Whaley and last time with my wife’s dad. This time the food was better tasting and more delicious than other places we have visited and the portions were huge

Good traditional pub with reasonable priced drinks 🍸

Great place for lunch or just for drinks... with live music sometimes, games and warm and a charmy place. Good for anytime...

Great to see a traditional pub busy, great atmosphere and dog friendly, well worth a visit. We visited in the evening so no food as I believe they only serve meals at lunchtime

Nice staff, good beer, dog friendly and the food is excellent. 0

Loved it. Food and service was excellent 😃

Love this place it’s amazing foods great staff are brilliant. The pub has six ale pumps on amazing, but unfortunately am a weekend drinker and all the good ale seem to be on during the week am honestly gutted all my mates drink during the week when the good stuff is on,wish this amazing pub would put good ale on at the weekend. If I was the landlord I’d put better beer on all the time Christopher my flower

We went to the Dog Inn at Whalley. I had Prawn sandwiches with chips and my husband had Turkey sandwiches. They were both delicious..Its a lovely Olde world pub. Lovely atmosphere. Friendly staff and reasonable prices

Lovely place for lunch and meeting friends

Lovely little pub with great food at a very reasonable price.

Good pub and good Guinness, dog friendly, clean and generally a good pub

It was your typical "village" pub, no airs and graces but you got what you expected. Good friendly service, decent food and extremely competitive prices. 3 of us got lunch and a drink each for £39 all in 🤷‍♀️ certainly nothing to grumble about. Allowed dogs in to which I loved although would never take my excitable pooch lol. Would definitely go again.

They have SO MANY BEERS ON TAP. A pint of Elvis juice is the best thing to ever happen to me.

Excellent service . Andrea and all the staff are amazing and cannot do enough to help you and make you feel welcome. Lovely home cooked food and good atmosphere

Excellent food & beer. Will be back

Good food good beer and a cosy place and all the staff make you welcome

Great pub in Whalley, good selection of beers and Ales and a really good atmosphere.

Food was nowt fancy but was filling and good, the staff where friendly and very good at their job

First visit for a while and wasn't disappointed. Lovely welcome and genuinely happy to see our dogs. Drinks ordered and we decided to have sandwiches as we don't eat as much at lunch time. The Boss had Ham on white with chips, I had Prawn with sauce on brown with salad. The sandwiches were excellent and a decent salad, not just a bit of lettuce. The Boss couldn't finish hers, much to our dogs delight. If you've not been, you really need to give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

Best pub in whalley. The bar staff are fantastic especially the man called James he really looked after us and made our day special

Only went here for a drink. It was a Friday night, very lively and nice.

Brilliant evening burns night with Accrington pipe band

Been here a few times, always friendly to customers and of course their dogs. The service is lovely and the food is spot on. They also keep a very nice cellar with a great selection of beers.

All ways a brilliant selection of beers 🍻 and always a brilliant atmosphere 👌

Great atmosphere, great food, excellent friendly service, nothing too much trouble! Definitely recommend.

The friendly and hard working staff improve the tired and rundown surroundings inside. I managed to get served at the bar this time, which also helped improve the visit. Good access from the street, no steps. This pub has lots of incredible potential to be the heart of the village.

A traditional pub set in the middle of Whalley. Easy access as no steps to enter. Tired and dated inside. When we visited the landlady was clearly in a bad mood as the pub was heaving with customers. She proceeded to shout and point a certain individuals through the queue of customers waiting to be served at the bar. One being my 29 year old friend whom she wanted to see ID. She then withheld the driving licence stating it was fake as the hologram wasn’t on the back? Despite all our efforts to politely point out that the hologram was on the front (as they are nowadays) she refused to serve us and several other customers due to the same hologram issue. Totally accept the policy to request ID but in doing the check get your facts right! You missed out on sales and in the process received a much deserved terrible rating. Would not return. Jacks, The Swan and Aviary are much friendly and when they check ID they know what to look for!

good range of real ale and largers, music and pool

Unusually,for these times,busy pub. Had a delightful Ham sandwich with lovely crispy chips. However it was a long wait,probably as they were so busy, but why not take on more staff? Staff were most pleasent though despite being run off their feet.

Great local pub, with beer garden.

Nice friendly place, often call in for a quick drink whilst waiting for the bus

Me and my pal go 2 to 5 times per year. The food is always dynamite.

Called in yesterday as a group of 7 professional ladies visiting for a hot tub weekend in Sawley. The barmaid was very accommodating and couldn’t do enough for us ( unlike The Swan opposite who turned us away as there was more than six of us and we hadn’t pre booked. ) Nice when you are in a position to turn money like that down. As Julia Roberts said “Big mistake!!.

Lovely staff really well looked after even kept the kitchen open so we could order food couldn't Do enough for us really good food

Lovely gin selection! Only had a couple of drinks there so cannot comment on food.

Lovely home cooked food at a reasonable price. I had cheese and onion pie, and it was delicious 😋

Nice quiet table in the corner for lunch. Lovely pint of John Smiths Smooth and the Ladies had.a.nice glass of wine. Very polite young Lady took our order. It wasn't long at all for our food to arrive and wow, I ordered a Prawn Sandwick, and what a Prawn Sandwich(See photo) The Boss had a Ham sandwich with very nice chips and the Big Boss had a lovely plate of Fish and Chips. All very satisfied and happy. Staff were Brill.

I come here a lot, love the home made food Feel I need to post this, try the basic salad dish, never had the portions like this, amazing food All the dishes in the pub are homemade Food served 12 moon till 2pm and best booking Lovely service and great friendly bar staff

Today was my second visit to The Dog Inn for lunch, with a friend. We had a nice corner table and ordered from the Specials Board. We both opted for small servings of steak and potato pie, without the chips, one with carrots and peas, the other with carrots and leeks. Half a bitter shandy each cooled us down on a warm day. The staff was friendly and efficient, the food served hot, the plates were warm and there were no delays. We both cleared our plates with no trouble and we left feeling well satisfied. Prices are very competitive, also. We have been looking for somewhere to make "ours" on a regular basis and I think we have found it. Thank you to all concerned.

Good for the jukebox and live music. Suits the 40s to 60s more. Plenty real ales and different lagers. I didn't have food

Always been a brilliant pub, really nice atmosphere and friendly barstaff.

Looking for Lunch .To anybody who does not know Whaley looks like a small pub .But like the Tardis it is a lot bigger than it looks. Visited at Lunchtime Menu traditional HOMEMADE food cannot fault the service or the pleasant staff. Stands out from the crowd try it you will be pleasantly surprised

First visit here for food & truly fabulous,a good menu & daily specials,all cooked to perfection,will certainly be back on my next visit to Whalley.

It's a lovely pub with friendly staff and meals are lovely and well worth the money 💷

Brilliant live singer, thoroughly enjoyed the evening entertainment and atmosphere

The best Cheese & Onion Pie in Lancashire.

Nice place for a pint following a long walk

Intimidating barman James Nasty attitude

Decent pub, but quite average considering the prices. Bar service could be faster. When I visited there seemed to be a bizarre rule whereby the jukebox couldn't be used before 2:30.

Excellents locals pub with good selection of real ales and good value food.

Good atmosphere, friendly staff & retains the charm of a proper pub. Good beer too!

What a fantastic pub our local we love it friendly atmosphere great staff amazing jukebox a great hit with me the bar staff make this place so chatty and friendly

Great atmosphere and good music

It's old fashioned and unique , it will be a sad day when this pub closes , good ale and good food .

Had lunch here, food was great, good prices, lovely staff, great atmosphere. Well worth a visit

V.busy, well run pub, friendly efficient service, good pub grub. Have been before & will certainly go again.

Bobbed in for lunch with the wife and mother in law. Nice quiet time but cash only due to internet issue. This was not a problem as the cash machine is just across the road. Drinks ordered and onto the food order. Bid boss ordered Fish and Chip, second boss ordered a Ham Sandwich with chips and I ordered a Prawn Sandwich with salad. Not long and food arrived. Fish and chips were great according to bigg boss. Ham sandwich had loads of ham, I was given chips instead of salad, but I was hungry so didn't bother. The amount of prawns on my sandwich was Hugh and we all agreed, the chips were some of the best we have ever had, nice and crispy and dry. Lovely lunch, thank you.

Thanks for accommodating our vegan requirements

A really friendly pub with a good range of well kept cask beers. Food is only served at lunchtime but it is delicious. Dogs are welcome too.

Popular pub, great atmosphere good selection of drinks

This is the perfect example of what a combination of good management and good ale realises. Warm friendly atmosphere the best of a quintessential English Hostelry that I will head for next time I am in the area. Chapeu!!.

I really like this old fashioned pub, friendly staff, good atmosphere and real ale , what more could you want

Excelant food and the bar lad couldn't do enough for you. Would return if ever in Whalley again.

A great pub nestled in the heart of Whalley serving a wide range of drinks and even food if you go at lunchtime... I recommend the cheese and onion pie! There is always a welcoming atmosphere when you enter and the staff are really friendly. There is a pool table near the toilets which makes got a great game! The pub is dog friendly so if you have allergies I would recommend taking some antihistamines. There is an outdoor area which is partially undercover which is great in the summer.

What a wonderful place, thr food was amazing the staff worked really hard to lookbafter all customers.

Last called in here on an early weekend evening and it was already quite busy. Just about found somewhere to sit, in a dingy corner. Service at the bar was quite slow at first, but by the third time I went to the bar they were serving regulars - Only. Having been ignored and overlooked for 10 minutes, I decided to leave it to the regulars.

Cosy pub with great choice of beers and food.

Found this by chance after going to nearby Artisan market been quite a few times since with friends and family. Cheese pie is something else and veggies just cooked how I like them others had Sunday dinner and meat pie equally as delish as other people have said staff just great friendly helpful and know what they are doing highly recommend it. think good idea to book as always seems busy especially weekend

A very warm welcome and friendly service, we wanted some good home made “pub grub” and this place certainly delivered. Absolute delicious food and couldn’t fault a thing about it! Will definitely be heading back soon!

Great pub with friendly bar staff Food always yummy, the homemade plate meat pie would recommend Open Mic Night first Thursday of the month is fairly busy and a good night Would recommend ***

A good pub in Whalley, better crowd than other local pubs although you can get some choice folk. Beer is good and fairly priced.

Great pub, good atmosphere , always busy & reasonable beer prices , good home cooked food & attentive staff.

Proper pub. Friendly with a great choice of drinks. Not for wine bar lovers!

Really good home cooked food,great for children and dogs too ! Excellent service

Good honest pub ,full off characters with a tale to tell .

Great beers, Great atmosphere. A genuine local pub.

Warm and friendly welcome, great selection of beers and lagers

Visited for lunch after 6.5 mile walk in the area on Wednesday 7th Dec. Sat with our pints of excellent local Stout with a hint of liquorice to peruse the menu and I chose the Braised Steak daily special and I have to say it was spot on! Took a little time to get our meals, but it was a very busy lunch time and the staff were great and attentive. Whalley is a lovely place to visit and has lots of history and places to explore. The Dog Inn is a great local village Inn and a welcoming place to call in for drinks and food and I heartily reccomended it!

Great traditional, (behaved) dog-friendly pub with great selection of superbly kept beers.

Sectional food and lovely staff

Always good food. Chips very nice.

Best pub for Cask Ales in the village. My husband loves to try the different ones they get in every week. They regularly have live singers and music on too which is a bonus (but midweek we like to make use of the jukebox).

Great food and great friendly service. Really good beer selection
