I haven't given a star value for food because I didn't eat there. This is a very nice pub. Staff are friendly and even though the place was full, got to us quickly. I had IPA which was very nice. Will defo pay another visit in the future.

A nice cosy little bar that has been extended for a games room. Very clean even got proper toilet roll. 😆. The only complaints I have is there is no proper disable access, from the car park to the front door is a cobbled area, which is not level. Also it is difficult to go to the smoking area for anyone in a wheelchair and if they go to the front door then there isn't any shelter if its raining. Please sort it for a 5 star.

One of the better away pubs, and they were prepared enough to not run out of beer, unlike the parking spaces, which were at a premium... Although hearing the bar staff telling tales of my fellow fans knocking on the door at nine o'clock in the morning probably explains why I had to park up the hill. Says more about them than me, I think! Great pub, great beer, and great staff dealing with the increased traffic with smiles on their faces.

This pub is very easy to get to as its just off the motorway, and about a 20 minute walk to Ewood. Car park is a tenner for the duration of the game and you will probably be fully blocked in so no point leaving the match early. If you find you're waiting nip in for another pint

Kicked out for my kids buying some sweets from the shop. Got told to put them away which I did. Then he came back 3 times to tell me off and tried to embarrass me as he had an audience.Queen’s jubilee day, never been spoke to like that before. Disrespectful, aggressive land lord , rude even insinuated to fight me after. All in front of my children. Total bully boy you’re an embarrassment. Kids still go on about it now you’re a disgrace .

I won’t be setting foot in there ever again. Loud mouthed woman with a spoilt child mentality was doing the cleaning, she killed the pub atmosphere and regularly brought normal conversation to a stop until she’d finished her rant. ‘Toxic female’ comes to mind.

horrible place, staff are rude to not only customers but also staff. Are judgmental to people who arent from the uk, even if they are white. My friends and i are never returning to such a place, girls night was ruined. the atmosphere itself can make anyone run for the hills as soon as they set foot. if you look closely you will see how dirty it is and how bad it is, seriously seems like they don't care about customers. They dont even pay their staff minimum wage!!!! outraged!

We visited this eatery after leaving another local restaurant due to bad service and what a lovely greeting we got from the owner and shown directly to our table. The owner asked if we had been before and when we replied no he explained how the service operated. He informed us as to the set charge as the tapas is all you can eat for a very reasonable set price. We tried just about everything on the menu and it was all cooked and prepared beautifully. Very nice place with very nice staff.

I was in store on friday 11th October around 6:30pm and can’t praise the staff enough! We ordered our drinks served by a lovely lady. My husband accidentally dropped the tray of 4 hot drinks! The staff came to our aid straight away and were so kind and understanding as he was very embarrassed after making such a mess! The gentleman working made our order again whilst the lady cleared away the mess and was adamant in a kind way that we didn’t need to help! Drinks were as delicious as always. Super nice and kind staff an absolute credit to Costa ☺️

I booked this very last minute on the day with the Date package that included accommodation, dinner and breakfast. To be honest, this package was what swayed me as I was limited on time in arranging anything so this was perfect for my last minute plan - and it was absolutely worth it! It was my partners birthday and we decided we would go away for the evening. Since it was very last minute I needed to also book dinner and also arrange birthday dessert. I couldn’t get through to the hotel as something was wrong with the phone line however, there was a chat function that Natalie responded me and was able to inform me that table is booked but no candle. This gave me time to run out and get one before we left. Natalie later gave me a call to run over a few things which im very grateful for. This place has plenty of parking and we had such a friendly welcome. As we checked in late, we made our food order at reception so we could drop off our bags to our room (which was the modern rooms with very comfy beds and very spacious). The food at dinner was incredible - the pate, steak, the fish cakes and service was great. When they brought our dessert with the candle, my partners face was shocked. We had a few gin & tonics and was able to pop into the distillery which is fantastic. We had more drinks at the bar before calling it a night. Next time we will be doing the gin class for sure. Breakfast was great. I can’t comment much on the location as I didn’t really see the area but the hotel appears on the maps and has ample of free parking in site. The staff here are super friendly, great service and really made our stay memorable . The hotel is currently under refurbishment but I’m looking forward to staying again when it’s all done. The hotel locks its doors at 11pm - 8am . This was fine for us as we were eating and staying at the hotel. This helps us knowing we can sleep in peace and no late night wanderers going to the wrong room etc. Thank you Natalie, Lottie and Blake for a memorable stay and look forward to staying with you again
