Popped in whilst travelling through by boat for a lunchtime pint... ended up having 3 and 5 games of pool. Really friendly place with nice staff and locals ... Even learned how to line up balls correctly 🤷‍♂️

Pint of bitter was £3.00 which compared to the Beehive Inn, is exceptional Value, though comparatively, this pub was very quiet on Friday night. It is a large space which detracts from the atmosphere if it can't be filled. Staff were nice though and given the price, I'd recommend it.

Awful place, used to be lovely but the landlord is sulky, hasn't a clue how to pour a pint, is really slow to serve and argues with his wife in front of customers. Place is in need of a good clean especially when the drinks are expensive, people expect better when money is tight. Shame when its always been busy and the other staff work hard. Lights often off, place seems very uninviting

The staff are great, the beer is good, the furnishings are nice, but it lacked some atmosphere. I have only visited it in the evening and have no idea if there is any lunchtime menu. [Edit Aug 2019] Been twice this Bank Holiday weekend and it feels much improved (tonight The Rob Martin Band are belting out the classics with fabulous gusto) and I recommend the Thwaites Gold.

This pub has died over the last 12 months. Hardly any customers . Lovely pub inside....such a shame. However will not be going in again due to massive increase in beer prices and lack of customers.

A change of landlord in August gave hope that the pub would improve its poor image . Not so ...!! I am a Friday night regular and am dismayed at the number of times I have to send beer back as it smells vinegary and is cloudy.The bar staff are always helpful , but there is no sign of the landlords , who appear not to care less . A real poor decision by Thwaites brewery to appoint these 2 jokers . I'm finding other drinking haunts and fear this will be the end for my favourite pub . A disgrace.!!!!!!

Best pub in Blackburn, has everything from an excellent range of Lagers, Beers and spirits to a brilliant nightlife. Excellent friendly staff with a warm atmosphere and brilliant for showing the sports. With a DJ on Friday, Saturday and Sunday and live music you are guaranteed a great night at The Station.

We visit here every weekend after walking our dog along the canal, and always enjoy a home cooked quality breakfast by great staff. Excellent quality produce and fantastic customer service. It'll be difficult to find a replacement location nearby.

The station has only recently started to serve food, so we thought we'd give breakfast a try. We really enjoyed it, the food was great. The food was cooked fresh too. We will return again.

I went here during a busy shopping trip and needed a coffee, the experience overall unpleasant. It was a very overwhelming atmosphere the staff seemed unhappy to serve us which made us feel unwelcome. Drinks were okay, but definitely not up to expected standards for a coffee shop, but it did the job. Will be avoiding this brand in the future as there are much nicer coffee shops close by which seem to genuinely care about its products and service.

THE best pub in Ribchester! Fabulous freshly prepared home cooked food, great size portions and so delicious. All the staff are friendly and bend over backwards to make you feel welcome. The restaurant is clean and inviting. The main bar is comfortable, child and dog friendly as is the more “pub like” bar and you can eat in both. The “champagne lounge” is a beautiful multifunctional room. We love the White Bull, Julie and her team so much we decided to hold our small wedding reception there. Our expectations were surpassed by the attentiveness and attention to detail Julie, Dipak and Jeanette afforded us. The food was awesome and was served by the most amazing team of staff. We stayed in the hotel the night before and the night of the wedding, the rooms are comfortable and pristinely clean. Nothing was too much trouble. We loved every second of our family meal the night before the wedding, the day and the night of the wedding and even returned two nights later for another meal with friends.
