The Plough Oswaldtwistle in Hyndburn

Great food , we went for the five course set menu , although a little heavy, but we fought through, and the end result was delighted. We were a little early , so it was a little quiet, but the service was fantastic. Thank you. Good wine too.

We haven't been here for a few years as we live out of the area. As soon as we walked in, it was warm and welcoming. The staff are lovely and attentive. There is a good choice on the menu. The food was divine. We will definitely be back! Thank you. Oct 2024 We have been back a few times since the post above, and we were never disappointed. Yesterday we celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary there with family and friends. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their food. Thank you very much for your attentive service.

The food was very good would ,without hesitation book again ,we had the steak and ale pie, followed by toffee apple cremebrulle and stickie toffee pudding .

Went to Plough for a Family Dinner as a Group. I had Sunday Roast Beef which was not cheap nor expensive. £17.95. Very good meal and very tasty. We had a group area and it was very busy at 4pm. Nice ambience and excellent service. Drinks were overpriced in my opinion as you were not getting a cheap meal. Amstel £4.50/half pint. A milkshake £9.95. Prices that may be London might pay. So be aware . There was no charge for Glass of Tap water and ice. A steak meal was around £30.

As ever the chefs table food was excellent. I have eaten at many similar establishments offering a tasting menu offering meals at twice the price and nowhere near as good as the Plough. However when you offer this high end food it has to be backed up by product knowledge and delivery of the staff or else you are doing the food and chef no justice at all ! Put menus on the table so you know what’s coming next - only needs to be on a piece of paper . Staff should describe what’s on the plate not just put it down and say - this is yr sea bass etc. Lastly there was no attempt to upsell wine and I had to wave at the staff twice to get drinks ! The service staff were pleasant enough just not trained . Food is excellent Service and offer needs much improvement.

Excellent food at this restaurant and very efficient with the service too, as well as lovely helpful, friendly staff. Everyone worked so hard for us as there was at least 30 of us celebrating. I 100% recommend this restaurant to everyone it is well worth the money, and you wont be disappointed !!!

A very nice modern restaurant in an old converted pub, the whole place looks high end and it lovely upstairs with a cocktail bar and nice inviting booths. The food was delicious and waitresses couldn't do enough for you!

My wife and I visited yesterday and thoroughly enjoyed our experience. Decor wasn’t what we expected and the place does look the part which was a nice surprise. Drink options were good. We had 3 courses each and enjoyed every course. The soufflé starter was a highlight for me. Service was efficient whilst not being the most friendly or personal so that would be my only minor point to improve on - a little friendly chat or welcome would help take the experience to the next level. Would happily return.

Excellent service, delicious food - especially loved the chef’s menu!

Lovely place with lovely efficient and attentive staff. Food took a while to arrive but when it did, it was piping hot, well cooked and presented well (if a little too faffy!). There were no condiments on the table and no tartar sauce with the fish and chips etc. Chips and mushy peas very over salted to the point that I left most of mine. I would have preferred to put my own salt on my food. I would have asked for my meal to be replaced but as it had taken quite a while to arrive in the first place, I didn't bother. Such a shame as we had such high hopes after having The Plough recommended. I would have happily given 5 stars but for the salt!

Amazing restaurant. I love the cheese on the burger

Excellent meal here, the food was delicious and the service was spot on! Well looked after from arriving and a lovely atmosphere. We were seated upstairs and the decor is beautiful. All our table said how good the food was. We will definitely be returning.

Service chaotic and not organised. Group friends sat with having to wait for the rest of their order to come out and by the time they got it their pies cold. Rang up and asked for a specific dish I ordered to not have an ingredient on it (before i came) Lady who organised it stated the same. Ordered it on the day and specified twice for this and still it came with it on. They did offer to replace it, but at this point my trust is no longer there and everyone would have finished eating in the group. Everyone else's food looked good, but clearly they don't listen to special requests, which is not good when you are allergic to the ingredient. When I complained they said I would still have to pay full price. Would not come back and would not recommend.

Had booked an afternoon tea with 3 friends. We were greeted with a warm welcome from bar staff & ordered a drink from the bar before our table was ready. We were then shown to our table. Afternoon tea arrived shortly afterwards with the extra Prosecco that we had requested. Food was tasty & plenty of each. Fantastic service 😀 will definitely return.

The room is absolutely lovely, the food was fantastic. However, a waitress came over to the table to take our orders to make sure everything ran smoothly. One of the guests reminded them she didn't want mayo or dressing, but the sandwich came with mayo. They brought my cheese pie but I had to ask twice for my chips. It was over 5 mins before my chips arrived. They brought the salt after our meals had been eaten even though we asked when the food was being brought to the table. I feel that the staff was very chaotic and if the food had been served by table as originally agreed the mistakes would not have been made.

Had a fabulous prosecco afternoon tea, delicious food, excellent service and great value for money...will definitely be back! Scones were very yummy too.

Delicious afternoon tea, great friendly service and well worth the money!

Amazing afternoon tea with. Group of girls for a Saturday afternoon. Cups of tea and Prosecco! 🥂 Special mention to lovely waitress Abigail 🥰

We had a birthday meal and the food was incredible

I organised a party of 15 for a family birthday and the experience was fantastic from start to finish. The communication and organisation during the planning was excellent. On the night the food was delicious and served piping hot by lovely and helpful waiting staff. Absolutely great night, thanks to all the team.

Previously had a very good experience however tonight was rubbish. Burger good but processed cheese slice ruined it. Given wrong drink waited 20 minutes to be offered another drink by which time we were ready to leave. Staff not really interested when comments made before leaving. AVOID AT ALL COST!

Lovely staff and really nice pub, we went on a nature walk and stopped in here for a quick drink. We was going to get a bit of food but found it quite expensive compared to other places we've been so we decided to just stick with the 1 drink each.

I can’t believe we’ve lived in Hynburn 3 years and never tried this place! Food was delicious, really tasty and fresh. Good quality ingredients at such a good price too! Staff were really friendly and efficient. We will definitely be back!

Myself, my sissy & our two best gal pals went to The Plough for the first time Easter Sunday. A neighbour recommended it to me. We were all very happy with the delicious food. We would definitely go here again and would highly recommend a visit. The best meal I’ve had in a long time. Service was great too. 😍

The Plough never fails to deliver on food. We often visit for special occasions including mothers day this year. Salmon was to die for.

I've lived in Oswaldtwistle nearly all my life and never dined at the Plough until now. I'll be eating there regularly from now on. The food was delicious. It's the only place in Oswaldtwistle where you can see scallops on the menu too. The service and atmosphere was excellent.

Excellent service from going in to leaving. Lovely to see someone dressed in a suit very smart The food was excellent hot fresh we left nothing the steak was to die for melted in your mouth.

Not go there again. Too expensive and boss running out for payment. ALREADY PAID

Lovely pub with amazing food. Staff are super helpful and atmosphere is nice and relaxed

The private dining area is nice, but the lighting levels could be higher. Staff were nice. Beer is also good. Maybe some ambient music upstairs would be nice.

Great place to go, didn't need to book and it was fairly busy. Went with friends and will be going back to share the same experience.

Last minute Sunday afternoon booking and we were very pleased we were lucky to get a table. Our first visit to the Plough and definitely not our last. The roast beef we both had was amazing, meat and veg all cooked to perfection and very generous portions, and as for the gravy, well i thought it was delicious 😋. We didn't think we could manage a desert but after a short break we had the bread and butter pudding and Eaton mess brulee which were both fabulous. All the staff were incredibly friendly and we can't wait to go back soon.

Amazing sized sausages on the menu. They are huge! Meal was excellent, with the exception of normal gravy not being available. I don't see the need for red wine jus on sausage and mash. I would have been happy with bisto!

We come here at least once or twice a month, for food or just drinks. The service is brilliant, every time we go, we have the same members off staff (I really wish I knew their names, a young lad always in a suit, and a guy who works behind the bar). We had a meal last night, and both dishes were amazing. Every time we go, I always get the sticky toffee pudding, and I recommend it to everyone.

Thank you to all at The Plough for the excellent service, delicious, beautifully presented food and wonderful atmosphere for a group of 24 of us last night. Highly recommend.

Well....this place is simply brilliant!!!! If you're looking for high quality food, good service at what I personally found to be priced correctly for what you got then this place is a must!! Highly recommended the Sunday roast dinner, well worth a trip out to visit if you're not from the local area also, you will not be disappointed. Rated it 10/10 🙌

Nice food and well priced , very nice pub .

Wonderful service, with amazing food. Tried the 5 course set menu, portion sizes slightly big for me, but perfect for the husband. Highly recommended

Deffinatly worth a visit, well decorated, and food delicious at reasonable price especially if you go for 2 or 3 courses. If I was being picky is we went around 4 pm on a Saturday and it was quiet and they put up upstairs, which seemed for function or bigger groups which I didn't understand apart from that good place to visit.

Could not fault this place.. beautiful restaurant, speedy service and amazing food. Went for my 39th birthday meal and had an amazing evening. Thank you 😊

The restaurant is absolutely stunning, such a lovely place... food presentation spot on and taste even better. Highly recommended 👌 perfect for nice quiet meal for couples or large groups for celebrations 🍾 thank you for a fabulous evening. First time I visited but I will definitely be returning.

Lovely pub good service and delicious food.shame it was quiet on a Saturday night

Really nice. Classy and staff very friendly. Nice atmosphere. Food really had lots of variety. Care abx cleanliness good

Great service throughout the night. The staff were always close by to make sure everything was fine. Food was excellent at a reasonable price. Thanks

Just been for lunch excellent food hot very tasty beautifully presented good portions staff professional efficient friendly courteous spotless clean excellent ambiance definitely recommend and will go again 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👍

First time here loved it.staff were very attentive and pleasant. The food was superb set menu 3 courses great value everything freshly made.special shout out for the haggis and mushrooms starter as a Scotsman was just like being at home lovely.

This is our local restaurant our go to for a meal out. Said to my hubby today I want to go to somewhere different. So we went to a high class restaurant in the ribble valley high end cars on Car park very posh. They had a set menu £45 for two courses half in menu had a supplement! it was very nice but the food at the Plough was far better and superior, so if you want high class food at an affordable price the Plough is your go to. And I will always going back to the Plough.

Yet another eatery within the Accrington area that is worth a visit. The food is very good quality and presented nicely but may I say a little pretentious.There are a few things that could improve as with the Sunday roast beef a red wine jus is offered on the menu and unfortunately one of our party does not allow alcohol past their lips and no other sauce or gravy was offered leading to a very dry Sunday roast. Service was a bit hit and miss also as I asked nicely for a glass of water but after 10 minutes ended up going down stairs and getting it myself. The haggis and garlic mushrooms was wonderful and the beef curry was nice, lacking in sauce and a huge piece of solid brisket ( presumably). Two of our party fell back in love with the good old bread and butter pudding over indulging somewhat 😂😂 It is nice to have these types of restaurants appearing in our area they are a good thing so pop along and support them you may well be pleasantly surprised.

Food was amazing, nice relaxing Sunday Dinner

Delicious food and drink, very good value as well. We had the 3 course special and enjoyed every course, all washed down with a fabulous Argentinian Malbec. Staff helpful and friendly. Highly recommend and I will definitely return.

I went to the toilet and I slipped on the floor wich was covered in water

Lovely décor. Staff very good .Food excellent.

My wife and I decided to go for an impromptu Sunday lunch, we contacted the Plough Inn to reserve a table for two. The person answering the phone was courtious and pleasant to accommodate my request. We had the set priced menu which had a good selection of dishes to choose from. The food served was really, really, good. The presentation was top drawer and the food was cooked to perfection. The staff were exemplary. When the bill was presented we were pleasantly surprised at the prices for the food and drinks. We could not have asked for a better experience than we had at the Plough. Thank you.

The best food in Ossy, fancy interior, etc...

I cannot praise this food enough!! Absolutely amazing and didn't want my plate to end

My partner and myself, visited for the first time yesterday. The food was exceptionally good and extremely tasteful. The staff were nice and welcoming and even though we sat outside to eat. I am looking forward to visiting again and eating indoors. The venue is beautiful and very well priced too. Thank you for a great first visit, we will definitely be back.

Our family really enjoyed a beautifully cooked meal. It was hot, tasty and beautifully presented. I had carrot and coriander soup followed by Seabass and vegetables. The staff were really attentive and the pub/restaurant is really modern and clean. The restaurant is accessible from the carpark and the pub is downstairs on street level. The Plough is also set on the edge of beautiful countryside. I will definitely go there again.

Just popped in on the off chance.Well worth a visit, food and service were spectacular.

Great food and brilliant service. We were a party of 20 and all ours orders were fabulous. The staff were lovely and service prompt but not rushed.

Best restaurant in Lancashire by far. Friendly and helpful. Wonderful food. I can't find fault well done The Plough.

I had the pleasure of winning the chefs 6 course special menu for 2! I can honestly say it was amazing service! The foot was outstanding, the team were lovely. Each dish was unbelievable! Thank you to the chef and the staff :)

Wasnt all that good to honest good job it serves a good pint don't think i will be rushing back in a hurry

Had a lovely birthday meal here, plenty of options and the food and presentation was fab.

Went in on the off chance it was good, and was very surprised, it was excellent Will be back

We had the Sunday roast with Beef. It was beautifully presented, piping hot throughout, and good quality ingredients, cooked to perfection. The service was excellent ( apart from another rude CUSTOMER dragging our waitress away whilst she was still serving us, so we had to get up and find our own condiments) The venue, is Beautiful and spotlessly clean. I had the cheesecake for dessert and my sister had Bread and butter pudding. We also had drinks, and everything was very fairly priced. We will definitely be going again, a very nice experience .

Booked a table for 19.30 to have the tasting menu. The food came out really quickly and we’d had all the 6 courses in less than 11/2 hrs! The food was lovely as was the service but the strange thing is, we were asked to move downstairs to the bar as the dining area closes at 8pm!!! If we’d been told this on booking we’d have gone earlier. Maybe this should be mentioned when booking?

Great food, great service, great price

Myself and my partner had the most amazing meal at The Plough last night. The Chefs menu was absolutely top quality and cooked to perfection. The staff really couldn't do enough for us, we had such a brilliant night and will defiantly be back soon

Really nice food and great service from our waitress Courteney. A little quiet in the early afternoon on a bankholiday weekend. But was well worth a visit. D

My daughter took me to the Plough for lunch for my birthday as except for once it’s always been a positive experience there and we’ve been lots of times as it’s our local. Unfortunately it was very mediocre this time and disappointing if I’m being honest. We both thought that the menu lacked variation especially if it’s a light lunch you want. There were no main salad dishes at all to chose from which isn’t great. There was music playing which is always nice to hear in the background but not this time as one track had lots of bad language in it which would be totally unacceptable for children to listen to. Even I didn’t like it and I swear like anyone else! We will give it a miss for a while and see if they improve. Sad really as it’s nice to have somewhere to eat on your doorstep.

Just back from Scotland and really surprised to see Haggis on the menu so my son and I tried it. My son said he would have forgone his Gammon and had 4 of the Haggis and garlic mushroom starters. High praise from him. Staff on hand were very professional and the food amazing. Will certainly go again when in the area.

Been some time since we dined here. Happy to say it was just as good, if not better than previously. Excellent service, food and Cocktails🍹.

Cannot recommend this place enough. Visited tonight and had two absolutely lovely meals, drinks and service. Brilliant quality food- we'd heard good things and we were very impressed. Staff polite, friendly and attentive. Clean (even the toilets) nice decor and good ambience. We'll be back (probably next weekend!) Thank you for a fantastic meal x

Service much improved although will properly judge when having chefs menu again ! Food - top class. White wine - horrific. Tried all in past and all terrible. Thankfully Moretti is good .

Just returned from here with a group of 7...mixed ages. Was told on arrival that out table wasn't ready...they suggested we go to the bar....which is down 2 flights of stairs ..they could clearly see the man with a walking frame...told then to just sit and wait....20 minutes after out booking, we were shown to a table....in a sweatbox of a side room...it was very hot in there!!....²⁵ mins later, someone took our order....25 mins later, the food came. Food was fine. Waited another ³⁰ mins for someone to come and ask us if we wanted desserts and to remove the plates....waited 15 minutes and dessert menus arrived....waited another 30 minutes and still no one came to take the dessert order ...we just got up and left ....possibly the worst service I have ever experienced in 40 years of eating out. Never again!!!

Great food ,complents to the chef,lovely friendly staff,nice and busy..

Fantastic food, the service is top notch. The owners are always helpful friendly and amenable.

Absolutely amazing food and restaurant, this place has a nice cosy welcoming feel about it and the food is to die for. Compliments to the chef 10/10 ! A totally enjoyable time here at The Plough, we will certainly be returning again very soon !!! A big thanks to all the friendly staff too.

Came here with friends who'd booked so no idea what to expect. It was a Saturday lunchtime in January. Pub/bar downstairs with tables for food and we sat upstairs with a more restaurant feel. Quirky and attractive decor, a good atmosphere. Attentive staff but not over bearing. Menu is typically British IMO and all the good for it. Very tasty food, home made too. I had Gammon, which was great. Others in the party had fish and chips, cheese and onion pie and salmon, all commented on quality. This is not pub food, much better than that. Can recommend.

This place serves outstanding food and the price is unbelievable. We go here often about 15 of us, including kids. Highly recommend. Quick friendly service and delicious food.

Nice restaurant. Best chips I've had in years. Sticky toffee pudding delicious

Spur of the moment decision to visit as other places couldn’t offer time we wanted. Soooo glad we did. Superb meal, service and excellent value for money. Set two course meal. It’s always great when your expectations are exceeded. Thank you. We will be back.

We chose the Plough for our Christmas dinner as we had eaten there before, yet again we were very happy, great service and lovely food. Well done Matthew and the team.

A nice place for food but service was slow and slightly disorganised.

Lovely environment, well presented food and tasted great. Staff very attentive

Had 3 courses here, and each one was excellent. Fantastic food! 👌

Unfortunately i can't agree with the good reviews that we read to make us book a table here. Seated upstairs.... Cold room... People dining with coats /jackets on. I picked the garlic mushrooms with pasta to start.... Could barely taste the garlic, bland & needed some kind of bread to soak up the sauce... & this was weak & watery. Cutlery was a knife and fork... a spoon & fork would have been better. I left half the portion. Hubbys starter... Cauliflower fritters with a curry mayo.... If it wasn't for the mayo then you'd taste nothing but batter. Didn't taste the cauliflower at all! He left half the starter. Main course... I chose the scampi... It was over cooked, hard breadcrumbs and obviously frozen. The chips & mushy peas were half decent. Hubbys main... Spaghetti bolognaise. Flipn eck... This was dreadful. The mince was so ground it was resembling puppy dog meat. Pureed. Inedible. & after trying it myself i agreed it was vile. Maybe we just picked the wrong meals... Because reading the reviews it appears I'm the only one saying I'd not return. The young girls waiting on are very polite... No problems with their service. But the food for us was certainly not worthy of even one star.... The chardonnay on the other hand was very nice.... Hubbys moretti was chilled and of a standard. But left 1/4 of the pint due to being put off with his food. We've not dined out together for a while due to work and commitments... so was really looking forward to this evening, especially after reading all the good reviews... But will never dine here again. Turn the heating up. Tweak the starters. Ditch the freezer food. & the spaghetti bol..... Seek help.

Beautiful place absolutely spotless food was lovely with not much wait time, staff very friendly. If we're in the area again we will definitely be back.

Good menu, fair prices, food very good

An Great pub and an amazing restaurant. For a nice relaxed drink downstairs is brilliant. Nice choice of drinks and lovely relaxed atmosphere. The restaurant upstairs is second to none in Oswaldtwistle. Very reasonably priced for the quality of thr food which is actually exceptional. The chef is exceptional offering a wide selection of options to suite all taste. The chefs menu is exceptional and I really cannot recommend it enough. The staff are great, really friendly and welcoming. I really cannot speak highly enough of the plough and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anybody.

It was so nice ,food yummy and the staff were lovely they looked after us very well.Would recommend it highly .

Well well well, what a great find. People had been saying for a while how good this place was but we just hadn’t found time to get there. Very glad we did though, service was impeccable the food was blummin fantastic and portions were possibly, dare I say it, too big. But will definitely be getting another visit. A lot of good pubs in the area and this one can be added to that list easily

The food is amazing here ! The girls behind the bar were very friendly and ensured we always had a drink to hand. Dog friendly

Food was delicious and the staff are lovely.

Always fab here at the plough whether we're having a meal or enjoying a drink. Fantastic food and great customer service!!!

Beautiful place, amazing food and fast, friendly service!

Well, after over 100 phone calls on a Thursday afternoon ( open 12 till 2), trying to make a booking for Thursday evening, I gave up. Drove to the Plough to book in person…. Closed!! Website clearly says open😡

Didn’t get as far as ordering food. Drinks and menu were brought to the table. 25 minutes later, still nobody came and took our food order despite the table directly across from us getting drink and food orders taken even though they arrived after us. Felt like we weren’t wanted so ended up leaving.

Had an amazing meal here. Last minute booking but they got us seated. Food was incredible and very reasonably priced. After my meal I needed to do some work so was given access to the WiFi so I could work while having a coffee. Staff were all amazing and so attentive to their customers. Would definitely visit again if I'm over that way. Thank you for an incredible evening

Absolutly amazing food, service, being made to feel welcome and couldnt ask for more. The gammon was a lovely cut of pork..only thing what didnt tick the box...cheap condiments...
