The Yew Tree in South Ribble

I can not thank The Yew Tree enough for a fabulous evening. All the staff are so accommodating, and service with a smile goes a long way. My visit was a Birthday party for 15 family members, all the meals arrived on time and were all very good quality. The chef needs a good pat on the back for this. Not one person had a complaint. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and I will be a returning customer.

A great spot for a family get together - good value, lots of choice, and the service was excellent, everyone was really friendly and helpful.

Nice place to come for a drink after shopping at the capitol centre serves a nice pint of heineken

Superb service. Beautiful, hot, fresh meal. Value for money. Yet a other amazing visit. Beef Sunday dinner is mouth watering. Friendly staff.

Fabulous food. Amazing ambience. Super service. Always a lovely time, is had when we visit the Yew Tree. Football can be viewed. Music played.

Lovely staff, great atmosphere and the food was outstanding

The dry cured gammon was amazing and so were the eggs and chips very freshly cooked and served with great friendliness and charm . I had a wonderful meal and pleasant conversations .

I've been here a few times for a meal and it never disappoints. Lovely staff and lovely food.

Nice comfy modern estate pub. Very popular restaurant with a pub atmosphere. Food choice and service is very good.

Everything about this place is outstanding, if you haven't tried it get yourself down . Just a suggestion don't give cold toffee sauce with sticky toffee pudding

Excellent food excellent friendly waiter Very highly recommended 👍👍

We visited the Yew Tree while visiting family in Preston and I have to say I'm quite impressed. Attentive staff, good food and fair prices. All in all certainly worth another visit.

I recently visited the Yew-Tree Pub with high hopes, but unfortunately, my experience left a lot to be desired. Walking in feeling hungry, I was eager to enjoy a hearty meal. However, I walked out feeling quite the opposite—sick. For £13.95, I expected a decent portion and quality, but what I received was far from satisfactory. The plate was overwhelmed with chips, while the main attraction, nine pieces of scampi, was soggy and lacked any flavor. To top it off, the portion of mushy peas was laughably small—perhaps the tiniest serving known to man. The only bright spot of my visit was the polite service, which was appreciated. However, it wasn't enough to redeem the overall experience. I left feeling that I had paid too much for what was essentially microwaved food. I won't be returning anytime soon.

Went at lunchtime. Great food and service 👌

Lovely staff been on quite a few occasions never been disappointed

A bit of a gem. Food was great - large portions so be careful. Had excellent service you'd be happy with in a full blown restaurant.

Good pint of Guinness and always served quickly. Food looks good although not tried it yet. Packed on a Sunday though.

Just arrived at 12 and wad met with a nice smile and welcome. Food and service was 1st Class. Defo come back again 10/10

Food was really good as was the service as the staff we're very friendly helpful and nice. I would definitely use this place again

Excellent as Usual Went for lunch today, booked via the website, to ensure we got our favourite table. Our Graddaughter had her usual chicken nuggets, my wife lasagne and I had the cheese, potato and onion pie. I'd been looking forward to my choice for a few days and my expectations were more than met, the pastry was gorgeous! My wife's lasagne was also delicious. Served without the mega drizzle of olive oil you often get on top in other establishments! The chicken nugget meal got a double thumbs up too! As per usual the service was top class, friendly and attentive staff. Even the landlord, Mike,came and accepted my granddaughter's usual hug, before dashing out to attend the Radio Two in The Park event to watch his favourite band.

Food top quality service top notch drinks mixed to your choice x seating outside under cover can't praise them enough

Spontaneous tea out wiith grandchildren - extensive and reasonably priced delicious food, friendly and relaxed atmosphere and books/games/colouring available for children - try it! 😋

Nice fresh food , always come here for food nom nom

Visited for the first time a couple of weeks ago, & been back since having not been in a number of years due to poor food, Glad we booked a table it was busy, everything was spot on, the service & food. I had fish & chips, the best I've had in a while, nice crispy batter and beautiful fish.

Good portion sizes and they ask if you want half chips half rice with the curries ☺️

Consistency is key - never fail to provide excellent food - tried most things on the menu and never been disappointed, the staff are equally amazing, even under pressure on a fully booked Sunday they smile and converse ( that doesn’t happen everywhere) and let’s not forget dog friendly with treats readily available - strongly recommend to knot drive by 🤩

Would give a zero review if possible table outside as no room inside given our bill before we had even eaten after being told 40 minute wait made to feel like theifs as they said they get runners from people outside REALLY we are a couple over 60 years of age will never return cancelled our food and went elsewhere if this is how they treat people then charge when you order will not recommend and will not be back!!!!

I visited with my son before going to the cinema.We didn’t book as it was a wet Tuesday evening and I didn’t think it would be busy. I was wrong! It was busy but we got a table and everything was brilliant. The service was excellent and the food was delicious. I had the carbonara linguine from the light bites menu which was tasty and just the right portion size. My son, who is a chef, had the mixed grill and he really enjoyed it, great quality ingredients, cooked very well. The atmosphere was lovely. Very impressed.

Unbelievable, convinced it’s getting better and better, desserts scrumptious and service class, no issues whatsoever very easy and relaxing

Another good place to go eaten there twice now and never disappoints they do light bites for those wanting smaller portions xx

Just had a lovely family meal at the Yew Tree. The food is amazing, we've tried various meals on the menu and they're all excellent. Great service. I can't recommend it enough. Looking forward to our next visit.

Called in on speck last night. We have eaten here several times in the past and have not been disappointed. We noticed the menues had been updated with some interesting choices My salt and pepper chuck chicken was amazing. My wife's nachos would do as a sharing starter My main rump steak was cooked exactly the way I liked it 👌 and my wife said her curry was excellent. with 2 beers and a large wine, the bill came to £65 which was excellant value.

I went here for a family meal during the day. The staff were all lovely and the food was really good. It didn't seem overly expensive. The pub was very clean as well. It was a really good experience. Thank you 🙂

One of our favourite places to relax and dine. Food is always exceptional and the staff are brilliant. The decor is lovely and welcoming . Well done guys. Xx

Visited this pub on the back of the app ‘pub walks’. Lovely pub, close to lots of amenities and a great walk around the river ribble. Neck oil £6.00, good pint, good price.

Best pub grub i ve had in ages, we could nt fault anything our meals one gammon the other fish and chips were so tasty... very good menu selection there were a few dishes i could have chosen, prices were reasonable staff friendly and helpful we certainly will be returning.

Love this place, just had tea there, absolutely wonderful. Owners and staff are great, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The restaurant is very clean and tidy, beautiful fish and chips the kids loved it too.

Visited on a Sunday lunchtime with 5 of us. Really great and friendly service. Menu has a good selection of food for all types of dietary requirements. It was served promptly and piping hot and it was a pleasant atmosphere. I highly recommend chilli con carne! Will be returning.

The place is awesome, clean and decorated lovely. Toilets are like in a hotel all tiled and really smart and spotless. The Sunday dinners are amazing. The half chicken is huge, and the lamb was lovely. We even decided on pudding, and they were to die for. And we went late afternoon and the staff were so friendly and helpful a credit to the place. Will definitely be back soon

Brilliant for gluten free food👍👍

Love eating here great food lovely friendly staff good parking great prices

Went here before the Paul Smith concert what a amazing little gaff to visit and the staff were some of the most polite around

A great meal in clean, comfortable surroundings with friendly, unobtrusive service.

Helpful staff who made me feel safe and comfortable. Well trained and friendly too. Lovely food, excellent.Thank you. Still as good. Fast service too.

Called in for dinner on Saturday and hadn't booked. They were busy but fitted us in. Great menu with lots if choice. Prices were fine and they have a smaller meal selection which my wife liked and she raved on the cheese pie.

Not had a bad meal here since the introduction of the new menu. Been eating here twice a week. Also good selection of beers.

Less than 10 minutes after ordering - our food arrived! Very busy yet managed to feed us with oven-hot, tasty meals incredibly fast - highly recommended!

Love coming here, very friendly staff, great menu choices, light bite and full menu, excellent service and value for money.

Came as a one off Had a lovely welcome. Staff are so nice We both had a sunday lunch (lamb) What a nice pub all round 10/10 All staff gad a smile 😃 of there faces .will definitely return. And will recommend

Our first visit the staff are so pleasant and helpful and the food was to die for I shall certainly be going back sooner than later

Straight away asked if we wanted drinks which loads of places don’t do. Speedy and attentive staff. Food excellent also. Shame on those who moan about too many steps get a life !

Haven't been here for a few months, it was very good, the food much better than previous visits. Staff were very friendly too.

Great friendly atmosphere, staff superb and very helpful,the food was really good as always , that's why we always return to the Yew Tree

The Yew tree is such a lovely place to eat and drink. It has real friendly feel to it and the food is absolutely amazing. We are always made to feel welcome wether we are dining or drinking. It is a lovely clean well run pub. And the staff are all very attentive. It's extremely busy for food so I'd highly recommend you book. But there are usually one or 2 tables in the bar area you can sit in for a bite to eat. It is also dug friendly which we love.

Late lunch and a couple of beers with the family. Lots of screens showing different sports. Food, beer and service very good!

I have visited the Yew Tree with my wife several times and always have an enjoyable meal. We find the staff friendly and efficient and the food is always good value for money.

We ate here as a family of four, before we watched a film at Vue cinema. Lovely food, reasonably priced and nice environment, all good. Plenty of TV’s to watch football also! 👍

Had a good pint here. TV a bit loud but the footy was on so I guess that was to be expected:)

Saturday 15th June 2024 Today, we went into this green king pub. There was only 1 handpumped ale on today green iPad under a different name. This pub is spacious and a locals pub Good staff on and good background music on. This pub needs to get more hand pumped real ales on urgently

Good standard food served by friendly staff. Building continues to be updated mainly outside now.

Excellent atmosphere in a well run pub. Very good food, prices a little on the high side though

Popped in for drinks, nice pub with good service

Popped in for a quick late lunch! Place was really busy which was great, as it has been really quiet on previous visits. We managed to squeeze in the main bar area, atmosphere was good the busy restaurant area was contained so it was less noisy where we were. The food was absolutely fab! Not sure when they changed the menu, we've not been for a while. Everything was hot, well presented and delicious! Great price too! We will definitely be back more often.

The food here is good at a decent price, tho the steak was the tiniest over done for my taste it was still decent to eat, with great puddings and a warm friendly atmosphere, Edited this review due to going back and as promised the steak was cooked perfectly, thank you, also the lovely young lady with the light blonde hair and tattoos was amazing, Great staff, will be going back again and again!

Funeral wake so not ideal. However staff were great.

Went for a few drinks staff were polite was a lovely few hours in the sunshine

Lovely staff, food and ambience. Sun terrace, fab.!

Good pub with friendly staff. Food is good. Limited choice of real ales.

The menu is varied with the usual pub style food: burgers, pizza etc, but the main courses had a variety of options not nurmally seen elsewhere. The food was delicious, and reasonably priced. The only downside was, as one of us is disabled, in order to get to the restaurant we had to go in via the main door through the public bar which meant a walk up a slope from the car park, as disabled access is not available straight into the restaurant. Well, not that we could see anyway. However, we would definitely go again.

As usual, the same welcoming service. Meal was hot and fresh. You are our regular for a quiz meal.

Not been here since the re opening. It was surprisingly busy but our reserved table was ready and the drinks order taken and despatched quickly,The food was very good and all was to a good standard

Lovely Pub with a great atmosphere, Friendly staff and brilliant service. Food amazing! Very clean and welll maintained. Love going! Landlord and Landlady very welcoming and do an amazing job.

Lovely meal in a relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff

Friendly staff and great food.I had the Seafood Linquine tonight lots of salmon and prawns. Absolutely delicious.

My husband came to the Yew Tree pub in Preston on Sunday, for dinner. Hubby had the traditional roast beef dinner whilst I had the Lamb Mint Henry. The roast dinner was a good portion size with plenty of meat and hubby particularly enjoyed the vegetables which unlike some other nearby establishments were cooked properly rather than pureed. My lamb Henry was cooked to perfection and it was presented off the bone. Again plenty of meat and the flavour was fantastic 👍. Noted that all the restaurant tables were fully booked proving that this pub has definitely got it right. Good quality food at a reasonable price. Won’t be long before we visit again and we like the fact that this is a dog friendly establishment with dogs allowed in the bar area.

My local. Alway welcoming and staff always friendly.

Looked nice very busy to noisy. To many steps!

My partner and I visited the Yew Tree for lunch as we hadn't been for many years. As soon as we walked into the Yew Tree, we were welcomed and shown to a seat. We were given time to choose drinks and meals. The landlady was very friendly and made us feel so welcome and chatted away to us. The food was excellent, real value for money, and we weren't left waiting for long. The surroundings were lovely, very clean and comfortable and all the staff were friendly. We will certainly be paying the Yew Tree another visit.

First visit to the Yew Tree and it won’t be the last! Food very good, service impeccable and always with a smile! Lovely place, plenty of parking and hot wholesome food! Would definitely recommend.

Car park prety full so we thought it must be good. How wrong we were. Sunday roast. I had beef that was apart from the veg was inedible. I couldn't even cut the beef never mind chew it! The nicest thing was the side order of cauliflower cheese. The other dinner was lamb which was he covered in mint sauce to mask the lack of taste and quality. We would rather pay double with no waste ..... The staff were very helpful and pleasant. We were asked how our meal was and offered replacement meat.... no thanks! Not sure whether or not the food came pre cooked and microwaved but we were left extremely disappointed and surprised how busy it was

My partner ordered a chicken roast dinner, the plate was full with chicken Yorkshire pudding and veg. I had chicken pesto and chorizo linguini,there was plenty of meat with the pasta and tasted lovely

Just what you would expect from a well run pub. Excellent meals, quick service, lovely staff.. our number 1 restaurant.

Wasn’t a fan of this big pub on a traffic island down by the Capitol Centre. Visited just after 8 for some food, only to be told no food after 8. 8 is very early to be stopping food. Who eats their dinner that early. Meh 🤔 As such; left hungry and with no idea what the food is like. Had a pint at the bar whilst I was there. After all, why not…. I think it was Amstel. A few spins on the gaming machine. Didn’t win anything. Pub is convenient for the Capitol Centre, which has a Waitrose.

Popped in at tea time on a busy bank holiday Easter Monday without booking. Greeted by very friendly staff, I asked for a table for two which wasn't a problem and we were seated straight away I had the Prawn Saganaki to start and then we both had the Lamb Henry, it was all very tasty and served by very efficient and polite staff. Well done thank you.

Been meaning to try this place for a while n didn't disappoint...had an absolutely lovely meal in lovely surroundings...Will definitely recommend to friends and definitely be back very soon xxx

Excellent service , nice clean and very busy place . Only stopped off for a drink but will most definitely be going back to try food

Our server Luke was very polite, helpful and cheerful. We had chicken burgers which were both very nice. we were also impressed with the gluten free options available

Great menu, helpful and efficient staff. Good, flavoursome food served. My friend and I both had the king prawn Makhani (starter) as a main course, lovely fat king prawns, cooked perfectly and very tasty and whilst my friend had plain fries I plumped for the amazing salt, pepper and chilli fries which were incredibly good. Great experience and reasonable prices too.

Popped in for lunch with my partner and my mum. Service was very good. Mum had the baked potato with prawns, partner had the prawn sandwich and I had the cheese and potato pie. All our plates were cleared and the food was nice. I found the pie to have a few too many potatoes and not enough cheese. But still very nice.

10/10 spot on .vast menu to suit all appetites. Excellent service beautiful food .we left nothing on our plates that says it all

We decided on the Yew Tree for this catch up, haven't been in many years, we were not disappointed. The place is just spotless throughout and that includes the facilities and even the carpets!! which is nothing sort of amazing in a dining environment Well spaced tables so you weren't sat too close to others. Food, perfect.. Service... probably the best I've ever had, they were friendly and answered any questions with a smile, Special thank you to Zethan, Dylan, Katie and Jenny on the bar. we will definitely be back ! 5* recommendation from me.

Great place to go for a drink on the way home. Food looks good but never eaten there.

Fabulous place to go,as well as the food and staff! Remember book at busy times, you don’t want to be disappointed! Great food and very consistent every time. Lovey place to take my mum,as they do a light bite menu,which is more than enough with out wasting anything. Staff prompt and friendly,cracking place to eat at.5 stars with out a doubt! Well done Team Yew Tree x

Great bar and great for sports. I just feel the drink prices need to be a bit lower as rather on the steep side.

Went for lunch our first time there. It was very busy, always a good sign! Our order was taken fairly quickly by lovely friendly staff. I ordered chicken forestiere, the chicken was a bit overdone & came on a bed of cabbage & fried new potatoes with a lovely mushroom sauce - very nice. My husband had steak & ale pie. It came with fresh veg & chips, he said it was excellent! It would have been 5 stars but for the chicken being overdone. Will definitely go again.

Absolutely superb great food and service Many thanks to all the team

Amazing food, amazing service! So glad we stumbled across this lovely place whilst shopping across the road. Highly recommend! Will be back!! I had the chilli, my friend had the Cajun burger. Couldn’t fault any of it!

We visited on a busy Saturday evening, and the service was spot on even though the place was packed. Food was tasty and served in an acceptable time scale. The team at the Yew Tree are very friendly and approachable.

Called in without booking for an impromptu date night and we were highly impressed. Even though they were busy, they found us a table immediately and from then on the service was impeccable. We had two courses and a drink each, the food was divine and all for an extremely good price. We would definitely recommend.
