The Dog Inn in Hyndburn

Just called to The Dog Inn , Belthorn . I have just had the best Fish , chips and peas with a pot of chip shop curry sauce Friendly staff , beautiful community run pub , I could not fault a single thing . Please give s it a try ,especially Thursdays on the Chippy Tea night , you won't be disappointed. And everything is home made on the premises by the kitchen staff.

After reading the reviews o had to visit !!! So glad I did absolutely amazing food served with passion,great to see a pub in full swing !! Keep up the good work guys your smashing it.

The food here is absolutely amazing, and for the price, it's by far the best pub food anywhere near or around Blackburn and Lancashire. It's now our 'GO TO' place for lunch. The staff are amazingly polite, and the atmosphere is great too. The menu two for £21 is brilliant.

There are some great Sunday roasts in restaurants around Lancashire but very rarely do you get this level of quality. Well done Jamie and your great team.

Delicious Sunday roast again and such a beautiful setting to eat in! Great prices too and friendly staff. Would recommend.

Absolutely fantastic valentines night meal tonight. Worthy of a Michelin star in our opinion. Very friendly and attentive service and an all round brilliant experience. This is a real jewel in the crown of a restaurant and pub, cannot recommend it highly enough

Started coming here after moving into the area The food every visit is superb The hanging steak best ever tasted ,husband loved his steak pudding The food is consistent the service fabulous well done guys 👏👏👏

Had the special offer 2 courses for £14.95 before 5pm. Garlic mushrooms followed by homemade steak pudding, chips and veg. All very delicious as usual. I always enjoy dining at the Dog Inn.

What an absolutely fabulous find!!! Had a superb meal for a very reasonable price. The food was served hot and portions were good. I can recommend the salt n pepper chicken pieces, they were really tasty. Four of us ate and we all agreed that the food was excellent. The bar is well stocked with a good choice. We weren’t rushed into ordering which was just as well as the menu has plenty choice and deciding is difficult!! We had a leisurely meal, staff checked we were ok but weren’t pushy at all. The bill was presented promptly when requested. Think we will be visiting again. Really impressed.

We chanced on a visit for Sunday lunch today and were highly delighted with the food, the service and the overall ambiance. A total gem of a place. Lloyd and Lois were our servers and nothing was too much trouble for them. We felt so welcome. The quality of the food was delicious and surpassed expectations. The garlic mushrooms with truffle and Lancashire cheese were an absolute triumph. The roast beef was sublime and the seasonal vegetables were carefully chosen and delicious. Two courses at £19.95 was excellent value for money and I wouldn’t hesitate to return. Truly excellent in every way.

Just burnt my mouth on the most delicious cheese pie I've ever had as I couldn't *wait* for it to cool down! WOW 🚑 A wonderfully relaxed restaurant situated in a lovely picturesque village just outside of Blackburn. Thank you Lloyd and the team! 💖

Steak pudding as well as the fish n chips were fantastic as well as very reasonable prices. Wait staff pleasing. View 10+

Nipped in over the weekend and we were really pleased with this little find! The atmosphere was great, the lady behind the bar was really friendly and welcoming. Although it was busy the wait times were minimal and we got our food promptly which was great considering it was made fresh. I got the beef and it was cooked perfectly, the chef clearly takes pride in his work! The plates were a good size and the price was very reasonable. We sat in the restaurant and the views of the countryside were beautiful. We will definitely be back soon, I have my eye on the fish and chips - I spotted another table ordered it and it looked delicious! Thank you The Dog Inn, we will see you again soon :)

Went for a Sunday roast beef dinner , the gravy was stone cold it wasn’t in a separate pot like advertised, the potatoes had obviously been cooked roasted frozen then reheated in the oven because when you finally managed to cut into it it was all dried and cracked on the inside of the potato , he then told me they had been cooked that morning which I then thought don’t insult my intelligence as I use to be a chef , the Yorkshire pudding was burnt and dried out that much it didn’t have a middle , the parsnips had been boiled and not roasted in the oven , the so called cauliflower cheese was a watery mess with no homemade cheese sauce it was absolutely horrendous , also a tea spoon of horseradish sauce between two people there wasn’t anymore on offer , desert was a crème brûlée which was just a sloppy mess not even a crunch to the topping ! I’m really disappointed when I had such high expectations.

Went for Sunday Dinner. The only thing edible on the plate was the Roast Beef. The Home Made Yorkshire Pudding was Soft burnt and tasted strange. The roast potatoes were so hard I could not cut into them. The Gravy was cold. For pudding I ordered the crème brûlée when it came it was just a sloppy custard not Crème brûlée at all. Extremely disappointed at the standard of the food served

Went out for dinner at The Dog Inn, was not disappointed. The service was amazing. Lloyd was waiting on and he was very customer focused. I am Coeliac and ordered the GF fish & chips, which was delicious. My partner ordered the Hanger Steak, which he said he really enjoyed. We then shared a dessert, GF sticky toffee pudding, to die for! One of the tastiest desserts I’ve had in a long time. Followed by an espresso each, mine decaffeinated. A lovely evening spent at the Dog Inn and top class service from Lloyd and Jamie the Chef and the rest of the staff. Lovely super friendly pub. Comfortable surroundings, nice decor. We will definitely be returning soon on.

Best salt and pepper chicken... EVER! Thank you to our lovely waiter Lloyd! Definitely recommend, yum!

A lovely place. Great Manager. She is so friendly. Great Chef. Fabulous food and service. Views to die for and a glass balcony to enjoy them. A warm experience not to be missed.

My wife and I had a lovely birthday lunch at this cosy restaurant and bar with amazing views over Pennine Lancashire. We enjoyed two main courses from the £18 for two menu choice. The homemade tagliatelle was a delight served with a wild garlic and sunflower seed pesto Homemade garlic focaccia suplimented the dish. Homemade steak pudding with chips to die for was enjoyed by my wife. The restaurant was quiet and intimate. Talking to the chef there was a genuine passion to succeed with emphasis on quality and flavour. A pub/restaurant not too far away may offer big portions but lacks flavour. The Dog Inn ticks all the boxes and we will definitely be back. A word about this community run pub. Drinks are very reasonable priced with a nice atmosphere.

Amazing place. Friendly and professional staff. Out of this world food! Very reasonable prices. I highly recommend the salt and pepper chicken! My husband had the steak and said it was one of the best he has ever had.

Great pub/restaurant. Had the beef Sunday roast. Very nice indeed and the staff very attentive and friendly. Lovely views at back of pub. Recommended

Steak night at the Dog. Two hanger steaks, truffle and Parmesan fries, broccoli and a sauce plus a decent bottle of red wine for £35.00. Absolute bargain. Beautifully cooked. Great food and service. Plus an amazing view across the moors. Excellent.

Went for lunch with my husband and dad. The food was amazing, we had cheese & onion pie, steak & the lamb followed by sticky toffee pudding and creme brûlée. It was delicious. The views are fantastic too and our friend Lloyd looked after us. We definitely recommend it and will be back

Excellent fish and chips, great value, friendly and efficient service. Apparently you can see Blackpool tower on a clear day.

Found the service slow, soup came just warm,steak overdone. Ok for money though and a good night out .

We had our Sunday dinner at The Dog Inn Belthorn. It was absolutely superb. Dog Inn garlic mushrooms are the best I have ever tasted. £19.95 for 2 course Sunday dinner is really good value too.

Absolutely amazing from start to finish . 5 course valentines meal , gorgeous food , wonderful staff . Couldn’t have asked for more .

Delicious Sunday dinner as always - the fish pie was divine and the Apple crumble cheesecake was to die for. You can taste the heart and soul in each bite. If you are looking for a good roast and a warm welcome then this is...
