The Royal Silverdale in Lancaster

Great little pub , no food so I can't rate that but the beer was great , the locals were great and the staff were superb , will definitely be back

This pub is the heart of the village, good real ale and a friendly atmosphere. Modern style, very clean and well kept. Live music and a good outdoor area. It's just a shame that the Royal is only open at weekend as I am sure it would get customers especially during the summer.

Nice vibe with live music on Friday night. Only open at weekends and rather a limited range of drinks .

Nice village pub ,only pies available that are very tasty though, limmited opening times even though the village is quite busy most days

Sat outside and had a Pot Of Tea, Wonderful!

Nice outdoor area, with friendly staff, food looked good.

Wonderful staff, wonderful drink. Service with a smile 😃

Never tire of this place. New pool table is amazing. Lovely staff

Good casual spot. Regular live entertainment, hot pies and pasties, good selection of different beverages. Reasonable price. Now has a pool table and darts board.

Nice pub, dog friendly but sadly no food being served when we were there. Bar man was lovely

Local hotel and bar, the house made pies are fantastic but all the food is very nice and a good selection of beers and a good outside drinking eating garden with a under cover option and the staff are very friendly and helpful, all in all a great place to stay and visit.

Excellent pub good all round service and quality service

We have been going to the royal for years but the presence of a landlady that truly cares about the pub and the community is very refreshing. Annabelle in particular is made the pub, very welcoming and she would be a major loss. We are not locals but we have been made feel like we are. We will be back again for the great beer and pub atmosphere.

Can't fault this village pub with friendly staff and a wonderful burger made by the butcher's next door.

Just stopped for drinks, live music, great outdoor seating

Nice pub very friendly staff and a good pint

Shame its not open more, nicely done out pub with great cask ale

Lovely pub in gorgeous Silverdale. Lovely staff, good pub food and the beer was pretty decent too. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area.

Friendly and inviting with massive fish on the fish and chips 😎

Dog friendly and comfortable. Only negative is the hot chocolate is really bad

How disappointing to find the Royal shut. It is in the heart of the village, with only one other similar establishment anywhere near.

Nice place. Nice food. Comfy beds.

Lovely quaint village pub. Plenty of seating and car parking. Decor is on point. Great little Pitstone for light refreshments whilst out exploring the area.

No food, no real explanation , just sorry we're not doing food The place, although looking ok, was like the Marie Celeste as a result.

We had afternoon tea at the royal thursday of last week..we were very well looked after staff were very pleasant & couldn't do enough sandwiches were delicious & a good choice of fillings , & all different kinds of cakes..& washed it down with a nice glass of fizz..

Went for afternoon tea arrived at 12.30 Greeted with a smile and the Service was excellent. Table set in the front conservatory. Good quality homemade sandwiches and cakes, with small bottle of Prosecco each, tea or coffee followed all very well presented.

I have Visited this beautiful country pub quite a few times whilst staying locally for weekend breaks , and I have always been impressed with the friendly and welcoming staff , not to mention the scrumptious food … Today , was exceptional the staff were absolutely outstanding ,in dealing with an incident involving a member of the public who had fallen requiring medical intervention .. Shelly , Ann and the rest of the team were absolutely amazing in their quick response in dealing with incident .. They showed the upmost care , compassion and sensitivity and really did go above and beyond , nothing was too much trouble for them .. They stayed with the member of the public for two hours giving reassurance and making her as comfortable as possible until help arrived . . This place really is worth a visit if your in the area , food , hospitality, beer garden area and most importantly staff are absolute top notch .. 🙌🥰

6 of us stopped for lunch and sat at a table outside in the sunshine, whilst on a bike ride on Easter Sunday Menu is currently quite small, however just fitted the bill for what we wanted. Food was very tasty and the new manager, Naomi, very thoughtfully brought out an extra jug of iced water for our table. We wish you luck with your new venture and will certainly visit again

These guys were a welcome relief from some really awful service at the Silverdale Hotel just down the road! Didn’t need a booking to get some hot chips for our daughter, went out of their way to make us welcome & even though understaffed…they tried hard to make sure we left Silverdale much happier than we had left the Silverdale hotel! A couple behind us had also had the same awful customer experience at the Silverdale & it was great to see that as just 2 couples that were turned away we contributed circa £60 to a place that is welcoming & wants to make people feel that it is a great place to stop! WELL DONE to The Royal!

On a lovely sunny Easter afternoon we called at the newly re-opened Royal for a drink in the sunshine. We received a very warm welcome from the new manager, Naomi, who was happy to talk about her plans. This pub is central to the village and used to be the hub for people to meet, drink coffee, eat and generally socialise. It has been closed for far too long so it's a pleasure to see it open again. But, they need to open for morning coffee - the place used to buzz with friends, groups, tourists between 10 and 12 noon. And the menu needs to expand considerably, it's far too limited at present and we need a place serving tasty and interesting meals, right in the village centre. Good luck!

We dropped by here today for a bite at lunchtime and had to leave without eating. Terrible service and empty promises. They were only serving sandwiches but couldn’t even manage that. After An hour and a half we left without the food arriving as we had two small children who started crying they were so hungry.

Awful service - only ordered sandwiches waited 1 hour 30 still didn’t arrive had to leave.

Called on bike ride. Plenty of room for us and complimentary jug of water with lots of sliced orange much appreciated

Very poor. Absolutely rudderless. Waited over an hour for food to arrive, it wasn't worth the wait. Staff are completely at sea and seem to be lacking in any training or basic direction.

Mediocre at best. Frozen chips very dry. Overpriced for quality

Very limited menu of ciabatta and kids meals Of two Chicken stuffing cranberry ciabatta , one had no chicken and the other had awful inedible hard stuffing. Don’t go on a Sunday

Had a cracker of a day on Boxing Day.

The Tripadvisor site is misleading. The Royal is currently shut blaming staff shortages. It is an important part of the Village. We look forward to it opening again soon.

Good, but with no great selection of ales. Still a pleasant place to enjoy a drink or an ice-cream after a coastal walk

Good beers and okay food. Staff friendly and have good customer service.

Friendly, good food. Lovely location

Great Sunday lunch after a day at the beach

Lad some lunch,would recomend it.

Lovely looking pub and nice peaceful place to sit outside in the sunshine. The website looks amazing and other reviews are great. Unfortunately we did not get to sample any food or drink because the staff did not come over to take the order. We left after 15 minutes of asking to order and after multiple tables were served/cleared around us. We would not usually mind waiting at all but it was not busy and at no point were we acknowledged re. the wait There are also very limited vegetarian options on the evening menu i.e. just pizza. Such a shame as we were really looking forward to it!

Food was delicious. Great place to eat and meet up with friends and family.

Nice place with good beers. Nice food but you need to book will in advance. As it can get very busy.

We had roast beef dinner for lunch. It was a good hearty meal but nothing spectacular. The service was ok but the staff could be a little friendlier.

Good pub owned by Holgstes. The staff are always friendly and there’s a good range of beer and lager. Outside tables too for those rare balmy summer days. Also it’s dog friendly.

While other businesses are using enterprise and initiative to reopen, the Royal remains cold and forlorn with doors firmly closed and with no indication of when it will be reopened by the well heeled Holgates empire. At least the seating out front was available for those eating the excellent takeaways from the independent food wagon parked outside the village hall at weekends, but the owner of the Royal has now removed the seating to prevent this which is pretty tacky to say the least. Please reopen. The village centre needs you.

I have visited several times over the winter and so far it has never failed. I may just have a single shot latte, big & milky just how I like them but have also eaten here on a few occasions. Their small bites menu can’t be faulted and I had to check my bill to see they hadn’t undercharged me. If I’m honest some staff have a natural customer flair more than others but I have never had any issues with any of them. I hope your business & staff can survive the lay off and look forward to visiting again as soon as you can open your doors.

During our 4 night stay in the area we was advised to try the Royal and so glad we did. Food was lovely and reasonably priced and the whole place had a homely feel to it. And family friendly

This place has a really good feel to it, and the food is great!

Beautiful Sunday lunch, highly recommended!

Great cozy room with roaring fire, great atmosphere and great food. Dogs allowed in specific areas too!

Went midweek in January and fairly quiet but can imagine its justifiably popular at weekends or in summer. Looks fairly recently refurbed . Staff very welcoming. Portions generous especially the pasta. All or food and that we saw served to other tables looked lovely. Will definitely be back

Good food, good beer, fine local pub

Generally a great place to go but when they get busy. Fish and chips come out not cooked properly.. the batter soft and not too good! Overall an ok experience but when the place is busy I would rather them take their time and not rush! I unfortunately had to send my plate back and had the same problem again!

Absolutely beautiful food, service was great! Very polite! We enjoyed a large fish chips and mushy peas!

Lovely cozy village pub. Food looked very nice and a very nice pint to be had.

A quick drink. Games for the kids. Dog friendly. More contemporary than cosy.

Great affordable food, and friendly staff and customers.

Possibly the best toilets in a pub ever.

Family lunch - got a table on New Years eve early afternoon for a family of four. Ordered some pizza and got sandwiches - all very nice quality. Service very good and food excellent, we were impressed. We will be back. Well done Royal.

Well a family grouping of 11 of us attended this august hostelry to celebrate my 60th. Our group incorporated 4 kids and demands made of the waiting staff were marked but answered effectively on each and every occasion.The food was superb and all at an eminently reasonable price.A lovely venue in a lovely setting.

Good food in pleasant village pub.

Visited here whilst staying a Gibraltar farm campsite. Had lunch on a Sunday afternoon - reasonably priced. My husband had the lasagne and I had the veggie lasagna both good portions and the garlic bread that came with it was lovely! Quiet inside but nice friendly atmosphere. Would visit again.

Amazing site and can thoroughly recommend

Called here a few times.. A lovely dog friendly pub serving great food. In the middle of Silverdale.

Had a pleasant meal here for our friend's birthday . Plenty of space upstairs for big groups to sit together .

Very cosy, sat by the fire and enjoyed lunch and a coffee. Very friendly staff and best of all it's dog friendly.

Great ale good food but pizza sauce needs work.

Very nice pub in a lovely part of the world.

Popped in for a coffee and some cake whilst on a walk. Not a great experience. Ordered two coffees, rocky road and a scone. Both had been around a while and were stale. Had to ask for butter with the scone which I was told would be brought out with the coffee... which arrived around 10-15 minutes later.. even on a quiet monday morning.. One coffee had no coffee in it and had to go back... both were lukewarm.

4 of us had main meals. I did ask the waitress if the chips were home made and she said - no.

We were staying close by in a cottage and looking for a good Sunday roast for dinner. We passed The Royal during the day and it was busy with walkers & locals - so we decided to go back for early evening. The roast (pork or beef) with all the trimmings was delicious, hot and plentiful. Pudding (I had toffee sponge & hubby had chocolate fudge cake) was divine. A proper Sunday feast..

Dull modernised pub. Lacks atmosphere and character. Not to my taste.

Excellent service, looked after us very well indeed

Bobbed in the end of September on a sunny day. Drinks bought, we sat outside at the front on the bench tables. Average pub. Reasonably fast service. Can’t comment on the food as we didn’t eat there.

Delicious garlic mushroom starter at fair price with warm crunchy ciabatta was rather let down by a small and basic chicken and bacon salad. I requested some honey & mustard dressing but got a vinaigrette instead. My wife's fish and chips was not as large as the fish description though chips were decent and mushy peas fine in quality and quantity.

Great atmosphere and delicious food

Steak and ale pie dried up and meat burnt. When we asked for gravy we were told this would be extra! Disgraceful. Very disappointed, must be somewhere better to eat in this area.

Good food and service at a very reasonable price. The food was freshly prepared, and the service was excellent. Also helps that is was only a 10 minute walk from Gibraltar Farm Campsite where we were staying.

Everytime we visit we are always greeted with a smile

We were a party of 13 adults and 5 children so quiet a large group for a smallish pub. The staff rose to the challenge and served us all very quickly and the food was very good and was enjoyed by everyone.

On the whole, we loved the place but at times it was very rowdy, couldn’t stay I’m afraid. The beef was second to none, and during relatively quiet times this is an excellent place to go or stay for that matter.

Service is really good. Food is reasonably priced and always good. Lovely place to eat. Thoroughly recommended

Great staff and food. Thank you for the complementary desserts which we received without having to ask they were much appreciated. Food was delicious 😋

We were on a cycle tour around the Trough of Bowland and made a detour for the coast towards Arnside. We stopped here for lunch as it looked nice and there were tables outside in the sunshine.

Sat upstairs in restaurant . Nice environment , very attentive staff food was tasty , good value , will return soon .

Good menu selection, food well prepared, good portions, well cooked & presented by friendly helpful staff/. Good selection of beers as well. I'd go back again at the drop of a hat!

Amazing food, must go if hungry.

Last night we visited the Royal at Silverdale for my daughters birthday, there were 6 of us and I had rang in advance to mention it was a special occasion. When we arrived they had decorated our table with balloons and banners. The meal and service were excellent and then they brought out the birthday cake I had passed over to them lit with candles. A really enjoyable night and very helpful and friendly staff.

Very nice pub. Good food at decent prices. Lovely friendly staff

The Royal is a great place, we're regular visitors, great friendly knowledgeable staff, excellent food, cant wait for our next visit at weekend

Arrived for afternoon meal, tables unclean and not wiped over in conservatory and let’s be honest.... would you sit on that!! (See photo). Lasagne not warm in the middle but was nice, poor quality wafer thin garlic bread served with it. Gammon was the other order and I had thicker bacon for breakfast this morning! (See photo) Pineapple straight out of a tin and hard fried egg, otherwise ok. Used to be sooo much better!

Very friendly staff. A good breakfast.

Nice place food very good friendly staff

My daughter booked for Saturday afternoon yesterday as a belated Father’s Day meal for 4 adults and 4 children. Two of the adults ordered light bite lasagne. It was an embarrassment of a meal - not even half of a child’s portion. I was appalled. It was at most half an inch deep in a small square bowl with a piece of ‘bread’ which was just like a large crisp. I did speak to the waiter who’s said that’s the size it always is and he just said ‘ I can only apologise. I didn’t want to cause too much fuss as the meal was a treat from the family but to be honest it was a complete shambles. Daylight robbery in fact!!! Will NOT be back in a hurry!!!!

Nice meals but a bit pricey for the amount you get served.

Food was excellent and plenty of it. Nice surroundings send friendly staff. Would recommend.
