The Howwood Inn in Renfrewshire

Brilliant little pub and a great place for a family party.

If your not from the village drive on ! Rude arrogant local men who would not move for my partner who asked politely to get past to go to the restroom. Would not move aside so I could buy a drink. Clearly 'outsiders' NOT welcome. Owner lovely and fantastic job with the refurbishment. We will NEVER BE BACK...LIKE THEY CARE.

Friendly staff and a reasonably priced pint

Lovely place with friendly helpful staff

A quick drink before going for the train nice clean wee pub.

Great place the only thing that lets it down is 4 toilets shared with men and women there should separate toilets and should be checked for toilets rolls etc

Thursday night quiz night, was great, great host and competetors and was a good atmosphere. Service was very good, and all customers were attended too.

First visit since it's recent refurbishment and renaming. On this occasion a brand new weekly open mic night was taking place for the first time. Really good atmosphere in the upstairs lounge and a very high standard of musicians - hosted by Crawford Smith.

Excellent food, excellent service. Would definitely recommend 👌

Lovely Refurbished Howwood Inn worth a visit 👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Excellent food and service. staff are friendly and helpful. this old Inn has had a face lift and it is glowing. the food is tasty and has a different swing on the old. I have been in a couple of times and the food has been excellent. the last time I was in was on one of the really hot days last month. I didn't want anything hot. there were no salads on the menu. when I asked the waitress, she asked the chef and I got a really tasty grilled chicken salad. just what I was looking for. I would recommend this to anyone wanting a really good meal. it is also dog friendly in the back bar.

New menu is far more fitting for the location. Food excellent, great value and superb surroundings. Staff friendly and attentive. Informal and inviting. Would highly recommend.

Mi pareja y yo somos asiduos al howood en bar, nuestros amigos de nosotros es normalmente allí todos los viernes por la noche. El personal es siempre muy amable y saber que nuestra orden para bebidas antes incluso pedir.

The food was lovely and amazing value. There is a nice cosy atmosphere in this old Inn which has been tastefully modernised. Highly recommend.

No había estado en el Howwood Inn para las edades, la última vez fue en el proceso de ser hechas, pero qué mejora tanto dentro como el nuevo mesas y asientos al aire libre. También disfrutamos buen servicio y una buena relación calidad-precio dos platos por £10 porciones con buen tamaño, bien presentado y a cenar. recomendaríamos y planeamos volver pronto.

¿Qué puedo decir? Este lugar ha venido en se anima y límites ya que los Laffertys propiedad. Si alguien quiere saber cómo destruir un excelente pub/restaurante, hablar con ellos.

Visitamos el Howwood Inn Sábado 1 de junio para la cena, y tenía la mejor comida que he tenido en mucho tiempo.

El centro de la localidad de Howwood. Siempre un buen ambiente o si sólo por una pinta o para una comida. El personal es amable y te encuentras entre los lugareños y si entras en el pequeño bar en la parte trasera, hay perros también. Gran lugar para una pinta y un blether.

Llevamos a nuestros 3 niños pequeños para la cena esta noche la comida era increíble!

Fuimos a Howwood Inn hoy por primera vez en un par de años. la última vez que estuvimos allí la comida era terrible. Hoy sin embargo era un cambio enorme. La tarta casera de bistecs y hamburguesa era fabuloso. La presentación era precioso y terminar pegajosa pudding toffees era uno de ... si no la mejor que he probado. chef llegó y habló con nosotros y nos dio una visión de nuevo menú saliendo pronto. quemadores de madera nos dio una cálida atmósfera. Los baños estaban limpios. Sin duda volveremos.

Llegamos a un lugar de almuerzo en 1,15 pm, esperamos en el bar por 10 minutos, y luego tuvimos que ir a buscar a personal. Pedimos la hamburguesa de jabalí, esto llegamos y probado terrible ( he comido jabalíes antes y sé lo que sabe como). Sin embargo, el camarero no sustituirlo sin dudarlo. La sustitución hamburguesas de pollo era un recalentados mama que había sido charcoaled a un poco duro seco de carne.

The Howwood Inn has certainly vastly improved over the last few months. There is a nice atmosphere as you enter the premises and the staff are all very attentive to your needs. The food is very nice and there is enough choice to suit most people. The chef was very accommodating when we attended as a party of over twenty people a couple of weeks ago. Some who were vegetarian stated they all really enjoyed their meal. The Chef also came over to check everyone wash happy with their choices, which makes diners feel attended to. The Portion sizes were certainly not scrimped upon. The music was good, the Woodburners were glowing and the Staff could not have been more accommodating to the customers.The inside also has a rustic touch to it with old stone, brick and wooden beams which all makes the experience more pleasurable. Prices are excellent for food and drink. We have dined in many places which are not too far from there an they were overpriced and did not hit the mark!!! for the dining or overall experience. we highly recommend this place for an enjoyable night out with family or friends. They deserve to be recommended for their recent efforts to please their customers !!! we will certainly be back again!! In fact we are already booked in with friends for next week. Can see the bookings being weeks in advance if they keep up the current theme.

On a rare night out for us, we decided to have a meal here with some friends. I duly booked a reservation for four the week previous to our dinner date. When we arrived we were informed that the restaurant was closed due to a problem with the chef, so sorry no dinner. I explained that I had booked the table the week before to be informed that the owner didn't know there were any bookings for that night, in other words he hadn't even bothered to check. I thought his manner was "couldn't care less attitude", people skills very poor. His passing shot as we left to go somewhere else for dinner was we could come back in on our way home and we would get a free drink. It will be the last time we pay this establishment a visit.

Have been visiting this pub for years. Since the new takeover it has improved immensely. Took my wife and father in law for Sunday dinner. 3 three course meals and 2 rounds of drinks for just under £40. Great portions and really tasty food. Booked up again for another night out with friends !

Now that the restaurant has reopened and the premises refurbished I can recommend the Howwood Inn for a night out or just for a lunch or dinner.The menu is not extensive but the food is good, freshly made and excellent value for money. At the weekend there are 'specials' on the menu. The Inn is also dog and child friendly which makes for a lovely family atmosphere. The bar is friendly and very well stocked. Most weekends there is something on either a live band or on Sundays a quiz night. On Wednesdays there is a jamming session attended by some very good players and signers which I always enjoy.

I heard through freinds that are from howwood that the howwood inn was a good night out so i decided that me and my wife would see what it was like and by pure luck the night i chose Anderson, McGinty, Webster, Ward & Fisher where playing. me and my wife went in early to get a bite to eat and we where extremely blowin away with the food that was dished up really nice food and surroundings really great wee place me and my wife stayed until the end really had a great night next time will be making a night off it as the wife was driving that time but next time we will plan ahead and book a room i think. if the saturday night was anything to go by this place is a wee cracker.

Our second visit, we are local residents and once again enjoyed a good meal this evening. The menu may be quite small but, the food is of good quality at very reasonable prices. I had the Mixed Tempura, a huge portion and the crispest batter ever tasted.Hubby had the soup, which he said was lovely especially with the homemade roll.Steak with all the trimmings and my Prawn+Chorizo linguini YUM!! The restaurant is being modernised and looks lovely, we are told more work is getting carried out and will I am sure will be a lovely setting. The Inn is establishing itself once again where I truly hope it becomes an asset to our small community.What could be better than having good dining on your door-step..

The pints are flat and over priced that's if you can find the barmaid to serve you. The stools are uncomfortable and a health and safety risk. The toilets are an absolute disgrace unless u like the smell of urine. Please lift my barring.

this is a lovely small restaurant and the food was fantastic, however all this was spoiled by a rude waitress who simply could not be bothered with customers< this person was rude and unkempt and certainly spoiled my day out in howwood visiting friends. the lounge bar was a cosy little place full of character and had no problems with any other aspect of my visit to this lovely little inn. Training should be the first thing to see to, although i think any amount of training would not make any difference to this individual and for this reason i would never go back.

My husband and I had a meal here on a Saturday evening in November.We were shown to a table in front of the window,which we immediatly recognised had a very cold draft coming from the window.I asked if the window could be closed and was told that there was an extractor in the window causing the draft.There was a radiator right under the window but was off and also an electric fan heater but that was also turned off.Wewere moved to the next table but it was equally cold.The steak my husband ordered was so ordinary not what you would expect from a specials menu. The 'hand cut 'chips were straight from a frozen bag.My salmon was very good however. I ordered banofee pie only to be told after 15 mins that it was finished.There were only 4 other diners at this stage and I failed to understand why it could take so long to look in a fridge and realise the banofee pie was finished.The deserts took a total of 25 mins to reach our table.I found the range of toileteries in the ladies very strange.There are lipsticks, nail polish,tampons,deodrants,cotton wool etc on top of the baby changing mat. There is a collection tin obviously for some local cause.I fail to understand what female would use such items.How unhygenic ,I wondered what the environmental health inspector would say.The whole experience was dissapointing and very cold.Take a cardigan!

The Howwood Inn is a fantastic place to stay, eat & drink. The meals are fabulous, and the friendly staff could not be any more helpful. Highly recommended.
