The Eagle at Barrow in Ribble Valley

Becoming a children's playarea children climbing on furniture climbing on bar stools bar people just watch and say nothing CHILDREN SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED AT THE BAR

Lovely pub, nice atmosphere. Never had food so won't comment. I go regularly for a few drinks with friends. Very good guinness too!

Could not fault our restaurant experience which involved celebrating a family birthday. We were a party of 12 including children. Diane and staff were courteous and helpful and the service was very good. Food was tasty and the bar service could not be faulted. Loved the clock room where we were seated and the restaurant/bar atmosphere was great. Definitely recommend The Eagle. Thankyou

The food was fabulous! Great service. We called last minute and they fit us in. We have tried other local places but they were no where near as good. A great atmosphere.

Lovely food at good prices, and nice surroundings. I'd recommend booking in advance.

Older lady on the booking stand . Wow what can I say except rude and arrogant right from the start ! Spoke to me like I was stupid right from the start . Won't go into details about the whole ordeal but certainly won't be going back I'm surprised she's front of house with that attitude

Lovely place. Dog friendly. Great food. Would definitely recommend. 5 stars all the way.

Just eaten not impressed food edible but thats it & surprised as heard was good.....mash luke warm cheese pie runny/tasteless...hubby had butchers block also was disappointed.. gammon tiny piece less than palm of my hand & stringy just ordinary knife to try to cut both gammon /lamb cutlet just tsp of lamb rest fat..the rest was just ok but £22.50 not worth it at all, extremely noisy sat side by side on sofa couldn't chat as couldn't hear ..two kids running wild crawled under our table twice where our dog was to get through as another table in front had asked us taking 2 chairs leaving no gap to walk through when joining mates table. Served no checkback or on paying nearly £50 wasnt even asked at any point if all ok...no one interested!!! At least dog was happy!

We arrived 15 minutes before our booking and sat in the bar area. The table was not ready until 15 minutes after our booking which was a bit disappointing when we were dining with a 1 year old. We were also told as soon as we sat that there were no roast dinners left. They looked good seeing them on other tables and probably the best value for money of dishes we saw. The fish and chips and fish platter were also pretty good value for money but don't even go there with the surf and turf. For nearly £20 it arrived on a starter size plate with a hand full of chips on it, 4 thin slivers of steak and 3 king prawns. As standard it was served with one sauce and for an extra £2 you could upgrade to peppercorn sauce. I upgraded, my husband didn't. We asked for the sauces to be served on the side so we could both try each sauce. They both arrived with the sauce already on them (about a dessert spoon full on each - wasn't worth £2 on its own never mind as an upgrade option). Ordered sausage and mash for my 1 year old daughter which was £6.50 and a much better portion than the surf and turf. It was tasty. When we got to desserts there was no custard left, again a bit disappointing. And my husband wanted to order some more savoury food due to the very small main he was served but they wouldn't take an order for savoury only desserts. Overall the atmosphere was nice. The service was ok. The food was hit and miss. If you can get in for a roast dinner then maybe worth a shot. Management asked me to one side at the bar if my surf and turf was ok. I said I was disappointed especially with the size. He said "sorry about that" then he webt behind the bar. I will probably be back at some point as it's a local place for some of my family so will update with my next experience when I can.

We didn't eat, we had a couple of glasses of wine. it's a large place, plenty of diners and unusually lots of areas to drink and socialise. Most pub restaurants only encourage diners, not at the Spread Eagle and it's all the better for it! Definitely would recommend

The Eagle has an excellent roomy restaurant. However, the roast dinners we're served on cold plates, and the food was barely warm. The two men in our group had meals off the menu, which were served on what we considered side plates - very disappointed!

Food pretty good, had butchers block, and sticky toffee pud. The pud was as good as I have had anywhere. The real issue was the service, my sister ordered extra chips and veg, but had almost finished her meal by the time it came. Also from booking a 7.30 pm dining, it was 8.50pm before we got offered a dessert and the table cleared. Spoke to manager who wasn't at all apologetic and was pretty ignorant.. Probably won't go again due to service and management, shame as the food was better than most.

We went back to the Eagle on Xmas Eve because last year we were treated in a curtious and sympathetic manner with our special needs grandson. This year was a different situation. On arrival there was a conflict over the time of the booking. We thought it was 4.30 and the manager at reception said it was 5pm and because at this time the restraunt was empty we thought it wasnt a problem. He seemed to think it was and made us feel very unwelcome. It takes a lot of effort to get our grandson into a restraunt so this was not a good start. I have to give the girls credit who served us who were polite and understanding but the meal was not good. It was cold and very small portions. The toilets were not clean and broken glass on the floor. I understand the bar area was busy as it being Xmas Eve but the whole experience was an expensive let down

Booked our Christmas dinner her weeks in advance and I was very excited as we had just enjoyed an amazing lunch so thought we would treat ourselves and our children to a Christmas meal. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed it’s was over £100 a head with hardy and food on our plate. We were also placed in the bar area not in the restaurant area and when asked to move I was told there was nowhere else to sit by manager even though I could clearly see empty tables during our whole meal. But I have to say the young staff serving and waiting on the tables were very good and I could not fault their service. (Management could do with training)

Visit here often as we love the ambience, the staff & the food! It's reasonable value wise too & fantastic out on the patio on a hot sunny day (has a buzzy vibe). Only one fault, the last few times I have eaten here (quite a few in the last couple of months) the food has not been very hot! I don't want scalding food but sometimes it's been close to being cold (soup especially)! Apart from this, I highly recommend, we are actually booked in for nye👍 Thank you

It’s a great bar with excellent staff but the food options can be quite varied and the portions have been significantly reduced whilst prices going up. The owner is making some poor decisions…

Great food, great atmosphere, really enjoyable place to eat or drink

Don't often visit as I live some distance away but when I discovered The Eagle at Barrow a couple of years ago, I make every effort easy there when I'm nearby. Last night was my latest visit with a friend and as usual, food and service was epic, atmosphere awesome in the restaurant and the bar area and best of all, it doesn't cost a lot. Can't wait for my next visit

Sunday special Lunch for my Mum, chosen for its previous good food and service, today was horrible my Starter BBQ ribs was overcooked so much that the bones were soft the three ribs at over £9 we’re no bigger that my fingers and lacking meat. Main course was good. My dessert arrived 15 minutes after Mum had finished hers they were very apologetic, I then got a bad taste in my mouth to find I was chewing on a cooked potato's. The wait was unforgivable as they had forgotten about me then to find the dessert had been served on top of a potato made me feel quite sick. They knocked £45 of the bill but Unfortunately they have lost our business for good.

Nice place just popped to change the baby and a quick drink. Staff very friendly and helpful.

A great place we stumbled on after the fireworks at the castle. The reedley hallows beer went down very very well. We had a nibbles selection amazing value at 4 small plates for £20. I had lamb rump for main and my wife had ahicken Kiev which she thoroughly enjoyed. No room for a pud, hopefully next time. Very attentive service, great food and reasonably priced. Will defo return very soon.

Lacks atmosphere. Minimal effort from Management, staff lack personality. Not friendly environment. Menu is dull. Beer is warm and expensive.

Portion size minuscule - simple horrendous,… will never eat there again - I advise you not to Tbf an ok meeting place for drinks but I stress do not eat there

The service is always great here, staff are funny and friendly. I've ate here quite a few times and never had a bad meal. Tonight we had the sharing board with the additional ham hock bites, I would definitely recommend this! Even if you want to pop in for a drink, there is a bar area which is comfortable with a working fireplace in place.

Gone down the drain, chefs foul language clearly audible in the dining area, food below average and not appealing. Staff helpful and pleasant, feel sorry for them, this is a sinking ship!

The food is very good, nice atmosphere and the staff are friendly.

Fabulous tasty food and fabulous staff, with a lovely cosy feel in both the bar and restaurant area, would recommend to anyone 🙏

Rude waitress arguing with another customer in front of us, disgraceful. All for sticking up to hospitality staff but they were being dead nice no need to treat them like that also made me just wanted to leave.

Really enjoyed our food most of our party had the roast menu ,which was all very good food ,excellent service not rushed will certainly visit again lovely atmosphere

The Eagle at Barrow has got to be one of the best chill out places to go especially sat out on the sun terrace on a gorgeous hot day, great food and drinks with a great atmosphere...

Amazing sausage and mash. Staff friendly. Did not take other drink orders other than first ones but it was busy

Accommodated us (2 adults and 1 one year old) at the beginning of service. Good range of food. Excellent pizza! One server at first appeared rather abrupt, but she was incredibly helpful when our infant became tired and found a box for us to take away food we didn't have a chance to eat. We plan to return with the wider family.

It's a lovely setting on the terrace. On a sunny day, it's well worth a visit. However, the manager and manageress are both miserable and would benefit from a customer service course! The food is nice but expensive.

Excellent early evening out for two, order drinks at the bar, pay and take them to your table. Order food at the bistro bar , pay and give your table number. Steak ciabbatta, first class. Would recommend and return

Nice Sunday afternoon meal with family. Staff were lively. Nice to see the kitchen staff being good with the front end staff. All very good. Food was ace quality.

Really nice place to a couple of jars in summer 👌

Sampling several l9cals on my summer off and just had to go for the steak in ale pie. What a choice ..... tender meat and amazing sauce ( or gravy ) . Deffo try again. Fab to enjoy a quality meal without the dog but dogs are welcome. RESULT !!!

Booked Sunday 28th July, 5 people for my Mother’s birthday, and although I gave a bad review for the Eagle a couple of years ago I can honestly say they have definable turned a corner, and feel that I should write comment where it is deserved. The food was very good, we all had food from the Sunday Roast menu including the Nut Roast as one of the party is vegetarian, the staff were great and very attentive even allowing us to decorate a table with balloons and a banner so thank you Diane. We were all more than happy with the service we received and will no doubt be going again.

Great food, friendly staff and a lovely place. Would recommend to all.

Booked in for Sunday Lunch last weekend and found it to be excellent. Also, took our dog who was warmly welcomed. The beef was tender, the gravy so tasty and the Yorkshires were huge! Superb. Only slight criticism from one of us was there wasn't a chicken option, (which would have been preferred if available) but the nut roast was delicious instead. Will definitely return and the service was excellent.

A lovely restaurant/bar. Even better sitting outside on a sunny day.

Had a meal,and drinks in the bar here. Chose the bar so we could have our dog with us. Great to be able to do that. Lots of varied spacious seating. A smart bar area. Friendly bar staff and good food. 4 stars however, as when our plates were cleared I was asked why I’d left some of my meal. I’ve never been asked that before…… felt like a 5 year old. My meal (fish with pak choi and noodles) was tasty, but with far too many noodles and insufficient vegetables. (So I left some noodles……)

Excellent service and amazing food. Great for families & friends. Had lots of lovely meals. Diane always looks after us 😊

It looks nice had to park in car park due to needing a driving break

Terrible....the food I got wasn't worth the money, butchers block, 1 small sausage, very small pork chop, very small gammon, 3 very small Tom's on stem, 6 chip's, 1 top part of a small mushroom, the best part was the peas.....all that lunch for a grand total of £19.95...what a total rip off....Good job I wasn't paying for it, because it wasn't worth a fiver....I won't be going again. I ended up ordering food when I got home..

Food was lovely, service was a bit slow and lacking. Our drinks were empty but we had to ask to order another drink even though it was quite and the staff were milling around.

We stopped at The Eagle by chance and couldn't have hit upon a better restaurant. The staff were friendly and very helpful, especially Diane who went out of her way to engage with us and show myself and my 90year old mother around the restaurant, explaining how it had developed over the years. The restaurant was attractive and comfortable and the menu was varied, with a wide range of specials. The cheese and onion pie from the main menu was homemade and delicious and the pork belly dish from the Specials menu was fine dining at its best. I look forward to a return visit.

After looking at endless menus for local pubs and restaurants we weren't disappointed with the Eagle's. Really good food and whilst the butchers block meats aren't the biggest cuts, they're super tasty and a top recommendation.

Called for a drink. Loved both inside and out. Will dine on next visit

What a lovely spot, beautiful looking building in a stunning location. It’s so under managed it’s such a shame. The rude lady at the front of house should not work on hospitality she clearly doesn’t like people I can’t believe she keeps her job. It’s a running joke with the customers not to ask her for anything at the risk of getting your head bitten off. The area is family oriented but the management clearly don’t like kids. We go in a lot and signs keep appearing deterring people bringing kids. Without the family’s in there it would be dead. Bank hol was busy but it was probably the only place in the area with no music no entertainment. Someone who actually wants to work in hospitality should take over this place. Such a shame

Huge carpark, very good food and helpful staff. Hand dryer not working in the Gents

Great food, great entertainment, great night had by all.

Food was ok but the older woman who served us was just downright rude and patronising terrible attitude didn’t make us feel welcome and felt like we were imposing being there. She really ruined our experience.

Can't comment on the food, only called in for a drink. Nice pub .👍

Called in on a Saturday afternoon. A nice atmosphere and staff were friendly. My wife had the fish pie and said it was one of the best she had ever had. I had the Lancashire Cheese Pie which was incredibly nice with the home cooked chips. Followed by the Crème Brûlée Which was Amazing. My wife, the orange cheese cake which she said was like a big Jaffa cake. If we are in the area again will call in you won’t be disappointed.

Always incredible food and lovely service, one of the best pubs I’ve ever been to!!! Roast is the best I’ve ever eaten, worth every penny

Nice pub however the 2 front of house are miserable like they don’t want to be there and the lady especially is very rude and abrupt then I caught her talking about our table to the other staff. Reluctant to return

Absolutely love this place. I bring my ageing father every week for Sunday lunch. Dianne and Carl are the most amazing hosts. Committed to ensuring that the customer experience is the best it can be. The food is exceptional and really good value for money. We are always made to feel welcome and feel like part of the Eagle family. The roast dinner on a Sunday is one of THE best in Lancashire. Love love love and grateful for the amazing service and hospitality 💕💕

Excellent pub. You won't find a better pint of Timothy Taylor's Boltmaker anywhere.

Food was amazing we will be going back There was 1 lady on the restaurant greeting desk who seemed a little abrupt but everyone else was friendly. Relaxed and warming but not so much for active toddlers

The food was good but they have really cut the portion sizes down considerably. I was hungry when I left.

Excellent. Great food great service polite and nothing to much trouble for these guys made for a superb surprise 60th birthday couldn't ask for more

Friday tea for a meal full of kids running round. Food over priced for what you got very disappointed as its a lovely place

The absolute RUDEST management. Didn't even get chance to eat or drink in there as the manager turned us away in the worst manner I have ever heard. Never have I been spoken to in such a horrendous way. Considering both the restaurant and bar were dead, it seemed like you needed the service. Won't ever try walking in here again even when your socials recommend walk ins.

Heard good things about The Eagle 🦅. We had the mixed starter between 2 - plenty for 3 to share to be fair. Followed by fillet steak. Food well presented & prefect portion size. Shared the apple crumble desert. Staff were lovely & the place was cozy & welcoming, having never been here before, would definitely return, would be lovely in the summer to sit outside.

Had been here a few times before to meet up with family. On all previous occasions we have had a good experience and although the food was ok the service was poor. The restaurant manager acted like he didn’t want to be there and had forgotten how to smile and the service was extremely slow. Doubtful we will return.

We love the eagle! Too many nice meals to mention Sunday lunch is lovely, can't rave about the pizzas enough. Kids meals are excellent value for money and the pub is so family friendly

Pie was nice but the cheesecake was inedible, hard as a brick towards the last course they didn’t bother to check on our table or even clean, we had to move the mess ourselves to another table to then be reminded that our table reservation was coming to an end soon..

Excellent food and reasonably priced. Really nice setting as well. Highly recommend!

Lovely place, excellent food and atmosphere, very helpful and polite staff.

Excellent food would recommend. Service could have been a little faster

Had a fantastic meal at the Eagle never disappoints on all counts. I'm coeliac and mentioned this when I booked. There was a gluten free menu already waiting when we were shown to our table. Can't praise this restaurant enough

Lovely quaint pub. Food was really good. There were 14 of us eating & the food came out piping hot. Bar staff very nice, friendly. Would recommend.

While the food was decent, we were the only people left in the place from quite early. Before 9pm the staff had gone home, the music was turned off and there was just one chap there, who clearly wanted to be off. We asked to order coffee but he said the machine had been turned off. It was a poor end to the evening and we felt rushed out of there. He took our soft drinks off our bill as an apology, but we don't manage to see each other often and just wanted to have a catch up - it was the time that was important, not the cost of the drinks. Google says open till 10.30pm, but clearly not.

We chose The Eagle at Barrow for our family to get together to celebrate my birthday...all mains ( 2 steaks,salmon,fish and chips cheese n onion pie and sausage and mash and a kids pizza all arrived together and all the feedback was positive. Happy to compliment the kitchen and service staff. A lovely experience ,many thanks.Paul

Called in fir Sunday Dinner, we were meet with a really warm welcome for the waiting staff, even tho we didn’t book, the Sunday menu was a great price! The food was beautiful, would really recommend a visit! We will be back soon! Thank you great job!

It’s been a few months since I last visited the Eagle Barrow, the staff are friendly and attentive the dining room and bar area, elegant and stylish. We both had sirloin steak cooked to perfection. Presentation on the plate had attention to detail. Obviously a chef who cares very much what he sends out. Good value for money. Will definitely be going back again very soon. Well done to everybody who works there. There was hardly a spare table, so probably best to book Eat here with confidence. Well, worth a visit.

Love it here, cracking food, and lovely atmosphere.

A very nice place with excellent service from very polite and attentive staff and wonderful food which is worth every penny. Can't wait to go again

Fabulous food as always just a shame with kids running up and down in restaurant why don't parents keep control of their kids

Only stopped for 1 drink, nice place, food smells really good, might try to call back and dine.

Excellent Sunday lunch. Efficient service. Just one issue with a specialty coffee, however soon rectified.

Food exalent good value for money.

Went for a 40th birthday meal with family. Had the Alice room booked so a bit out of the way of the rest of the venue, hence only 4 stars for atmosphere as not really sure what it was like in the main area, but it did look nice and vibrant. Food was absolutely delicious, all 3 courses were very good indeed. The waitresses serving us were all lovely and kept coming back for drinks orders etc. Would highly recommend this for a nice pub meal.

We visited on a monday in August said would not return was that bad but speaking to friends wete told they love it this time the soufle was piping hot not cold like last time, garlic mushrooms with poached egg good sausages tasty. chicken cooked perfect and so was the lamb both dishes were presented well all fresh veg visit was a Wednesday what a difference

We walked out after 90min. We were served quickly for drinks but then had to get up twice to request service again. We ordered food with drinks quickly too but after having to get up to be told the waitress didn’t deal with food & only drinks we asked for someone to give an eta on food. After about 50min we were told it wouldn’t be long & then we saw other tables sending food back we decided to leave. As we left other people followed. I doubt we would return

Sunday lunch is as good as it gets, fabulous!

Great pub/ restaurant, lovely atmosphere, good service lots of choice to sit and enjoy our food. Would visit again.

We came for Sunday roast and it was amazing! The roast beef melted in your mouth. It came with roast pot, mash, carrot, shredded cabbage, cauliflower cheese (which was amazing) and a huge Yorkshire pudding. Topped with beautiful dark meaty gravy. The lovely waitress even came half way through to check we were enjoying it and offered us more of the gorgeous gravy! It was the best roast dinner we’ve both ever had!! We will be back!

A little gem, locals flock to it. As a visitor, I found it to be a nice clean establishment.

Didn’t have food, big guy behind the bar is down to earth and generally really nice. Can’t remember his name but he’s the rice cakes guy👍🏽

Excellent meal of Cumberland sausage. Kids meals very good. Food well presented.service was friendly,prompt and helpful. The only negative and the reason I didn’t give this five stars was that the table was very sticky and seemed as though it needed cleaning properly. Checked that...

Poor Table was sticky to touch,staff offered to move, front of house was excellent let down by kitchen Souffle was not light and cold in the middle Pizza greasy and poor base,chared, chicken dry,souce split SURF & TURF- Fillet strips size of finger nail size...

Arrived around 5.30 on a Friday for a drink with friends. The place was full of Parents with their screaming children running around like it was a school playground! Awful.

Been a few times and it's usually really good but this visit the food just didn't hit the mark and was very average. Hopefully just an off day

Great little place I would highly recommend

Just been to the Eagle for a 19-string family meal. Best Sunday dinner I’ve had in a very long time. Cracking ! And filling ! All other meals- fish and chips, fish platter, gnocchi- excellent, too. Great beers, too. And the staff ! Never felt...

We met up here as a large family group and despite some of us being delayed the pub was accommodating and service was very attentive. We ate Sunday lunch and it was delicious with the best Yorkshire pudding! Desserts were also top notch. Highly recommend!

We booked for Sunday lunch at the Eagle, Barrow, quite by chance and we will definitely be back soon. All 9 of us enjoyed a variety of main meals and desserts and we were all delighted by the quality of our meals, the efficiency and...

Always come here for lunch and tea as this is usually exceptional. We came about 2 weeks prior to this visit and my partner ordered the surf and turf and was delicious. However when we came yesterday I thought I would order the same but...
