The Hop Vine in West Lancashire

Great food. Great atmosphere. I had cheese and onion pie with leeks. Service was really good. Food was superb. Beer garden, not too fat from train station. They even had Lancashire Sauce. Bonus.

One of the best pub dining experiences I've had. Excellent food served promptly. Attentive and friendly staff. Pleasant traditional pub surroundings if a bit tired. Great selection of traditional beers as well as the usual lager and cider. Recommended.

The food was lovely and the place was very busy . Would have got 5 stars if we weren't crammed in a little

A nice pub. Tastefully decorated. friendly staff, lovely food.

Visited today as a family of 4 for Mothersday. The food was delicious, fish absolutely massive and succulent. Service, very polite. It was a very laid back, comfortable atmosphere. We travelled from Manchester to take our Grandmother out, and will defo be returning each time we visit again. A standard mean around £17, very reasonable priced!

Visited the Hopvine for Lunch on the 25th March with our residents from Alsley lodge care home, The food is beautiful and the staff are absolutely outstanding. Thank you so much for your hospitality and kindness 🥰 we can’t wait to come back soon 🤩♥️

Excellent venue for a good pub lunch. I’d recommend the home made steak and ale pie! Best to reserve a table as it can be busy at times. Limited parking nearby.

Service was superb even had decency to run after us to return my phone thank you ste

Being warmly welcomed and seated always helps set the tone. We thoroughly enjoyed another amazing Sunday lunch together with our youngest daughter and her husband. The food was delicious as usual, our drinks were great and the staff were exceptional.

We don't get much of a chance to go out unless the kids are away but every time we do, we go to the Hop Vine. It never fails to impress; superb food (I always go for the haddock), superb ale brewed on the premises and superb staff (tonight our table service was provided by Poppy who was both courteous and efficient). Thank you again to the Hop Vine.

Wonderful, if the only comment is the lack steak knife shows it's a pretty perfect meal Btw the steak was so perfect it didn't need a sharp knife....

Really good real pub , friendly staff great range of ales that are brewed on the premises, we didn’t have the food but it looked great and would definitely return if to try it if we were in the area

Brilliant Customer Service Combined With A Great Atmosphere.

A very lively pub. Had a quick pint in here but will return.

I delivered there and the staff were very friendly and welcoming, especially Billy.

Came to the Hop Vine last night for a meal to celebrate my husbands 50th birthday with close family. Was a well picked place, everyone was very impressed with the staff and food. The staff went above and beyond in making us feel welcome even though the pub was very busy . The food was delicious and we have all spoken highly on returning in the near future. We was also there to celebrate Burns night (which we didn't realise it was that night) and what a lovely way to spend it. A bag piper there and we got to expiernce it. Thankyou to all the staff at The Hop Vine for helping to make a night to remember, so glad we picked here. Booking is essential in advance due to good food

Food was spot on. Unfortunately the service was slow. We ended up not having a desert because we waited too long. We brought this to the attention of staff. They informed the manager quickly. She was very concerned & gave us a voucher for our next visit. Which was a nice touch. We will return .

Had a meal at this pub and could not fault the food or the service. Good food, lovely atmosphere, pleasant ambience, friendly and attentive staff. Photos - scampi, pâté, prawn cocktail & steak & Stilton baguette.

4 of us had starters, mains and deserts. All different dishes. All very tasty, exceptionally cooked. Staff were outstanding. Great place to eat and drink.

Excellent pub with everything you want for a lovely time

A great pub, been calling in for years, but staff need to learn basic etiquette.

We come as a family (20 people) for a meal every Christmas as the food&service is excellent. We travel over from Wigan/Warrington, so in my opinion it is one of the best pubs in the area. The pub itself is lovely; I wish it was my local 👌

Always a lovely welcome from Katie and her staff Food is always great Can’t recommend this place enough

We Had dinner at the hop vine and ordered 3 different meals, all came together, the sandwich and the gammon were good, the prawn curry was disappointing all red and green peppers and a few prawns in a mediocre sauce, service and bar drinks were good.

Real good ales, with a couple of pretty hard to find German weisses. It was über busy when we visited, but the barmaids were all really on the ball with keeping track of who was next at the bar and dead friendly despite being rushed off their feet. Great atmosphere, and glad we took the trip out of Wigan to try somewhere different. Have heard food things about the food, but didn't order this time. Will definitely sample the menu next time

Rumoured to be the best pub in West Lancashire...and I can believe it. I just started going in regularly, and it really is a nice, traditional Pub. No blaring TV screens or fruit machines to be found, and they have a great selection of drink, served up by quite beautiful staff. Highly recommended. 🍻

Went here on Saturday night ......it was packed so good job we booked ....all excellent from the cheery staff to the food ....we all had 3 coures ..and all courses where exceptional.......we wi be back again very soon ....

Great atmosphere helped by great staff, great beers at very good prices. Food 3/5.

Called in for a couple of pints some lovely real ales. Would recommend

The hop vine is the heart and soul of our Burscough village, Mike Julie and the team provide a great place to drink eat and socialise, the food is cooked to perfection and the beer is even better.

We had a lovely family pre Christmas meal. Very friendly and efficient staff. Lovely food - I had fish pie and it was excellent. The atmosphere in the pub was really nice. Excellent value for money. All in all a great experience.

Food was delicious. Service was good and had a nice atmosphere. They even have a dedicated GF menu. I’d say it’s on the more pricey side, but worth every penny. Would definitely recommend!

Given a warm welcome on arrival. Booked a table for eight diners. The waitresses were friendly and helpful, bringing all the meals within minutes of each other, so no one was waiting to eat. (well done to the chef). The food was de-lic-ious! The whole pub atmosphere was pleasant and not too noisy or loud music. . Overall, a lovely meal had by all our table. I don't live locally, but will certainly make the effort to visit again. The manager can be proud of his staff. Highly recommend it.

Always a busy pub in the centre of Burscough. The food is traditional pub grub. Everything is fresh, well cooked and locally sourced There is a good selection of drinks as well with an on site micro brewery making their own ale. If you want food it's best to book in advance, but it's a good pub just to pop in for a pint, though it can be standing room only of an evening on the weekend.

Great service. Great food. Enormous portions

Very busy on a Saturday night. Food was alright. Shame we had an unpleasant experience at the end of night with a rude staff member.

Decent good food and service, but just seems to be missing a little and not as good as it used to be. However would recommend

Very nice. Good food, very pleasant staff

First time at the Hop Vine and won't be our last. Visited on a Sunday and had Sunday lunch. I am vegetarian and it was honestly the best I have had. Absolutely delicious.

Proper pub. Beautiful setting Great staff

Love it food really good, servis good, got the atmosphere of a really good pub that serves food.

Excellent as always. My local, so go regularly.

Lovely country style pub with a traditional gastro-pub menu of well cooked food made with well sourced produce. A wide bar selection and welcoming atmosphere too. Recommended

Called into here on Saturday night with friends. Lovely pub, sat down and got nice and comfy. Started drinking only to be told we had to move because someone wanted to eat there and they had booked. Fine, but maybe think about putting a reserved sign on the table. Also, I am no prude, but the girl servers skirts are none existence. It bothered me (and I am fine, it may not bother them) but sitting there you can see some blokes eyes popping out when ever they went passed or bent over.

Well where do I start the staff are absolutely amazing.The food is amazing. The atmosphere is amazing. Me my wife and my sister and brother in law go at least once a month and we CANNOT recommend the Hopvine enough. As always first class 👍

Excellent food and lovely friendly staff so helpful and polite. We had a get together for family and friends after our Mum's funeral.

Lovely food and lovely staff. Foid was delicious. Waited for us as we were delaywd. Thank you for yoyr patient and understanding

Very good pricing, beer was lovely and cold. Overall warm atmosphere with plenty of seating. Even had someone playing the saxophone live!

Our second visit. Really enjoyed both our visits. Food is exceptionally good. Service the same. Highly recommend the steak pie. Delicious. Can't wait to visit again. P.S My son had the beef burger with black pudding and said it was the best he had ever had.

What an amazing pub! Went with extended family for a meal and the whole experience was superb. The food was reasonably priced and great quality. Their own craft beer was very good and the staff were very friendly and attentive. We will definitely be back.

Well, the Hop Vine have truly excelled themselves! Family had only booked for 8 but the group had increased to 13, and the restaurant was fully booked. But amazingly, they managed to squeeze everyone in (without being squashed) and on adjacent tables too. The service was second to none - heaven knows how they coped so quickly with the increase in orders - all brought to the tables served absolutely professionally in next to no-time. Delicious doesn't do it justice - all meals were reported to be top notch quality and visually appealing. And all due to the hard work and willingness of the friendly staff to accommodate the group without compromising any of their high standards. So thank you so much, staff at Hop Vine - you made a spontaneous family/friends gathering into an occasion to remember for all the very best of reasons. The family will be back!

A late Sunday evening visit,so cannot comment on the food because we didn't eat. All I can say is there's plenty of staff to help your needs the beer choice is plentiful and it still feels like a traditional British pub with a good selection some which is brewed in the micro brewery on site.

I have been here to the Hop Vine many, many times, too many times to count, honestly. I have tried a wide range of their menu, from their Steak and Ale pie, their Fish & Chips, their Hunter’s Chicken, their Rumpsteak, i’ve had the lot. So it’s safe to say i am somewhat of a connoisseur of their food. And for all the times i’ve visited, i’ve never once been let down by not just the food, but also the service. The memories i’ve been able to share here over the years, have been nothing short of fond ones. But, alas. Today’s meal, i had something different from the norm. Today i decided that i’d order their Wild Mushroom Linguini. Which i must say, most people would not think this was pub grub. For what i had you’d think it was from a proper Italian restaurant. It was scrumptious, however. It really was. The creaminess of the base, the soft texture of the linguini, the chewy and flavourful mushrooms, the subtle spinach and leek add some subtle flavours, along with the parmesan, it was brilliant, utterly marvellous, in fact. Service, as usual, was superb. The waitress’s are always attentive and all ears out for your every needs. Decor is very cozy and warm, too. I can imagine this place feeling like home in the winter months. As i have been here so many times, and i’ve never once been disappointed, i would recommend you bob on by for either a drink alone or some great pub grub! 5/5 on all fronts.

Ideal for a Sunday lunch or just a snack

Always a great meal served by excellent staff

Had a nice meal here I enjoyed the steak pie but my wife didn't enjoy her fish finger sandwich it was dry ,but fair play to the management the knocked it off the bill ,which I thought was very kind .

Went at lunchtime. Food was lovely.

Lovely pub with a great selection of beers etc. Very attentive bar staff nobody waiting long even though it was busy. Didn't eat but the food coming out looked sensational.

Great bar. Thanks to the charming Grace for lovely service.

Still has an exceptional selection of beer, excellent food and great atmosphere. Don't expect a table if you've not booked, extremely popular and busy at the weekends. Great staff too!

Went today for the first time. Plenty of choice but the sandwiches we chose were delicious , fresh bread and plenty of filling the chubby chips were a great addition . All the staff were lovely and very helpful will definitely be returning

Went on a Sunday and it was very busy, good job we had booked a table for 5. We had black pudding, nachos and pork belly, followed by 4 roasts and 1 pie. 3 of us had to force ( we were already full) on of the best crème brûlée ever. We will be back

Didn’t eat but popped in for a beer,or two, and enjoyed them all The prices were all very well valued

Once we got served then fantastic first time in this pub as we Shere in the area. Excellent little pub 👍

Never fails to impress.Food and service is always excellent.Not expensive for the quality.Always book in advance save disappointment.See you soon.

Myself and a friend organised a baby shower celebration in the Coach Suite at the Hop Vine, Burscough. I would thoroughly recommend checking the Hop out, if your planning a celebration. Mike, Julie, Katie, Ellie and lovely Hannah behind the bar were super attentive and nothing was too much trouble. They arranged afternoon tea for over 40 ladies and I have to say for the price (£10 per person). It was one of the best afternoon tea's I've ever had. The sandwiches were lovely and fresh. Scones and cakes, tea and prosecco were plentiful.

As usual the food was very tasty and well presented. We enjoyed the Hunters Chicken and there is a very good selection of Vegetarian dishes and they were very good. The drinks are great value and their beer selection is great.

Staff were friendly and efficient. Food was very nice with decent portion sizes. Good variety of real ales available. Will definitely go again!

Great service, great food and a great selection of beers, what more could you want ? Excellent value, the nacho sharer is a favourite!

We've been putting off going to the Hop Vine for a while on the assumption that it was expensive and now we're kicking ourselves for not going sooner! Absolutely nothing to fault - all the dishes were superb, the sevice was attentive and friendly and when the bill came we were delighted at the valuye for money we'd received. We'll be back

Always a good night out. Food consistently good. Good when they have live music on too.

Callen today after booking a table and I was very disappointed with the service received. I have been the hopvine many times and although in not local to burscough I still enjoy the food which is always nice and well presented. The service I usually find ok as I know it's a busy pub and waiting is at times is unavoidable. However, today I found the service very poor and unprofessional in terms that we was sat at our table, menues given and basically that was it, apart from someone coming over to take a drinks order, no one bothered to come and ask for a food order or even to ask if we was ready to order, I had to seek a waitress down which felt awkward and by this time I'd had enough, my wife who has poor mobility, hard of hearing and not in good health felt disappointed at the whole scenario. It won't put me off going to the hopvine but I felt today the service was terrible and we ended leaving as we both felt that the enjoyment had filtered, I feel some staff are better then others and today I feel the worst staff was in.

Food and service is good everytime I've been

It is a lovely place to eat. It's dog friendly and has an amazing ambience. Staff are great. The food was fantastic. Parking is a bit tricky. I parked at tesco.

Not been for a couple of years...but had a lovely meal yesterday, 13th July. As good as ever...excellent food, brilliant service and a lovely pub x

Best food Ive had in a while, staff really good and friendly , will be returning.

Excellent food definitely will be back 👍

Went for a father's day meal with my kids and my dad, everyone enjoyed their meals. Menus were good that day.

Best steak pie I've ever had in my entire life.

Great food and a full house. Shows its popularity

We took a service user here for her birthday, the service was excellent, the food was really delicious. We had jacket potato with cheese and red onion which came with salad, and ordered a fish and chips for the birthday girl. The staff came over with an ice cream with a candle in and sang happy birthday which was so lovely.

One of the best places for fish and chips, as well as lots of other delicious dishes. Would highly recommend!

Very busy pub, but food, menu, and service is spot on, first time to visit defo won't be the last.

I have reviewed a number of times now . This place is consistently good.

Fab place, great food and fantastic staff. The place was buzzing and great decor.

Food was delicious. Posh pub grub only a little more expensive than expecting.

the hop vine was recommended by a friend , I decided while I was off for the day I'd treat the Mrs to a nice little run out for a early afternoon meal , we running late so called in advance , the lady on the line was wonderful. I must say the service we received was unbelievable everyone was so super friendly and attentive, we were made so very welcome , we viewed the menu prior so we actually ordered over the phone as we made our way there .. the food was absolutely beautiful and plenty of it too and very reasonably priced also , was definitely worth the 20 mile drive , cannot recommend highly enough ..

Really good selection of beers.

Great traditional pub, very clean, outstanding friendky staff, good food too.

Pleasant enough place to meet with friends, good range of food and drink, busy and lively.

Had a lovely evening meal here.

Went here for a midweek tea, was recommended & i would highly recommend this place to anyone. Great choice of selection on menus, excellent size portions, and very good value. Will 100% return soon!!!😃👍

Just as the Google Reviews report 👍 - Fantastic Food with Excellent Service 🙂 Visited one Bank Holiday Monday for Lunch. Reserved a table via the Website, just to be safe. Layout of the Pub is nicely spaced, with a comfortable 'old' feel about it 👍 Menu is varied and quite large, so something for everyone 😉 The food is fantastic, really nicely cooked with great ingredients and great presentation 😎 Food is served quickly and is piping hot 👍 Service is very good, fast, efficient and friendly 👍 Definitely a place to visit if you're in the area (or even to head to if you're not close by 😉) you won't be disappointed 👍😎

Great food, nice atmosphere. Never been let down by the Hop Vine. Recommended

Great service and great food as always

Always pleased with the hop vine . Service always excellent and with a smile plus food is just on another scale compared to most places . Good quality all round and well worth a visit .

We had lunch here after it being recommended and it didn’t disappoint. They had a good election of food with gluten free options available and were happy to modify anything to our requirements. Everywhere was lovely and clean and it just had a lovely feel to it, with families, groups and couples setting a nice atmosphere and buzz. Staff were great, service fab and food lovely - and reasonably priced. A lovely visit, thank you and we’ll defiantly be back.

Had an amazing meal hear service was great very accommodating staff..cant wait to go back..i recommended the aged sirloin teak ..very delish ....😋😋😋

Mediocre Sunday Roast, not up to normal standard. Dog friendly 🤔
