Th'owd Tithe Barn pub in Wyre

Lovely pub with loads of character and charm.

Took elderly parents out for lunch on a Saturday. One has Coeliac Disease. The menu showed vegan and vegetarian but not gluten free. A QR code needs to be scanned for gluten free menu. My Dad does not have a smart phone and my Mum not upto that technology either. All that's needed is (gf) on menu like (v) and (ve). Please think about elderly people. I was also frustrated and annoyed that I only wanted to order the 5oz Gammon, egg & chips but that is only available Mon to Fri. Instead had to order a 10oz Gammon. Why do you think people want to eat double at weekend? Please think about the elderly with smaller appetites. 5oz Gammon steaks were being cooked for the mixed grill so we weren't asking for much. Also chips come covered in salt. I love salt but they were too much even for me. Please think about people with high blood pressure. Seats were hard wooden church pews and very uncomfortable. Won't be going back.

Good place for a nice meal. We'll worth visiting. Needs to start and sell good local English beers instead of the foreign crap.

Very nice place, friendly staff

Lovely food and friendly staff.

Great atmosphere, food and service.

Discoverd this lovely cosy pub when family was staying for my wedding. Staff was very friendly and the food was really good. I'll be coming back here very soon.

Went on a Saturday early evening, ordered 3 meals, unfortunately all left a lot to be desired. The batter on the fish was dark brown, the garden peas were shriveled and the frozen chips had the taste you get when using old oil. My Rump steak was ok but not great, my peas were slightly less shriveled but the onion rings batter, again over cooked and dark brown. The steak pie was very nice but again let down that there was no alternative to shriveled garden peas and again frozen chips cooked in oil well past its best. I definitely would not be calling this a gastro pub. It's mediocre pub food. The positives about the place are that it is dog friendly and even has a dog station with water bowls, biscuits and blankets that are free to use. It's also a nice location by the edge of the canal which seems to attract a lot of people who go for drinks. Would I go again or recommend it? For drinks in the garden, yes but definitely not for food.

Found this on google maps as wanted a stroll down the canal where there was lots of boats Plenty of seating outside but it was really windy and we didn’t fancy swatting flies and wasps out of our food so chose to sit inside which was fabulous, so oldie worldie Good choice of menu for most tastes and they also have a Sunday roast menu The food we had was really good and would definitely return. They have their own car park but only quite small

An excellent reasonably priced menu. Helpful staff and very well cooked food. Overlooks The Lancaster Canal. The Cherry Sundae is excellent.

Very very slow service and stressed staff. Food was okay but small portions for the price. Shame as we gave this place a chance for my birthday even though some reviews were bad, but some were good. Unfortunately I won't be returning unless Gordon Ramsey gets involved!

Visited twice when we were in the area. They had their own parking. Order at the bar. Sunday roasts were quite good. Generous kids menu. The caramel brownie was to die for, it was so ooey gooey. I would probably skip the three appetizers of wings, toast and shrimp. Staff were friendly. WCs were clean and tidy. The only downside was the length of time waiting for our meals. It was quite long each time. Staff were most certainly not dallying around and taking their time, they were really working, Even the barkeeps came out to help! The freshness of each plate was evident. We wanted that caramel brownie again but opted out to my hips' relief.

Beautiful setting next to the Canal. Cant believe that I lived in Garstang as a teenager and its taken till I'm 64 to visit!! We had dinner there on Thursday evening and it was lovely. I had garlic mushrooms on sourdough bread and it was scrummy. Then smoked haddock fishcake with buttered new potatoes which were the nicest new potatoes ive had this year. Too full for dessert. Added bonus.....it was quiz night and although we didn't win, we enjoyed taking part. Second added bonus, they serve Doom Bar on draught and our Surrey friend had been looking for it all week without success so he was delighted! Oh and the staff are all lovely and welcoming. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Brilliant service, great food and a super caring landlady who was amazing with the children. If you want customer service and a nice atmosphere, this is the place to go.

Fabulous old barn adjacent to a canal basin

Idylic setting on the canal. Great to sit and watch the boats. Nice pint of Timothy Taylors too.

Excellent food, friendly staff, amazing location. Best way to spend an afternoon

What's not to like about this pub. Fab canalside location, plenty of seating inside and out, although obviously it can get very busy outside on a sunny, day great decor, very reasonable prices and friendly staff.

Always welcome here a beautiful pub in beautiful surroundings and the food is never disappointing,the staff are friendly and accommodating never any problems at all. Fantastic people and great food. Will always come back again &again *****

Great venue for drinks by the canal, but the food was really poor. The staff were lovely when I couldn't eat what was served as it was so tasteless. I had sent it back once as the chicken was still pink, not sure what they had done when it came back, but it was rubbery and inediible. I felt bad as I have never sent food back in my living memory, having worked in the industry, I sadly did today. I did get a full refund. Think there's still some work to do.

Oh my this place has gone down the pan. We fancied a bit of nostalgia and got rubbish. Even the setting is a tip. So disappointed. Food was just horrendous

Nice start to the day. 1st pub, very busy and great outside seating area.

I used to come here fifty years ago as a child with my parents, since we were looking for an eatery en route to the lakes, I suggested Th'Owd Tithe Barn as not being too far out of the way. A beautiful sunny day and plenty of outdoor tables, I was looking forward to it. However, when we arrived we discovered that the kitchen had taken a break as the chef was new and still getting to grips with the menu (least that was what we were told). I was rather disappointed. Working as I do in a service industry I know that information is key in cases where expectation cannot be met. Therefore either offer the full service as per the website, or post on the website temporary kitchen times, or don't offer food until your chef and supply the menu to the stated times. Had I known I would not have made the diversion to go there.

Bit of a hit and miss with food Been a couple of times lovely place to sit out side if weather is good and dine friendly staff great service

Sat outside, nice beer, lovely surroundings

Wedding across the way and a hen party on a passing canal boat made it a great atmosphere and the food was very good too

We were staying local for the weekend..friends booked a table well in advance for 7pm on the Saturday, we arrived 6ish , had a drink sat outside, then went in to take our table. They took our drink order at the bar , and a young lad point to the table ..table 13 ..we took our drinks & sat down at the table.We decided what we were having ..went to the bar to order the food, to be told then nothing was available only Chicken Schnitzel, so we paid our drinks bill and left , no apologies at all ..very poor from customer service & why wasn’t we told before we ordered our drinks and was rudely pointed to our table …luckily we got into the Thai restaurant & had an excellent evening ..thank you to to the staff there ..highly recommended Thai

Meals came out at different times. A blob of what looked and tasted like instant mash, shrivelled peas and a pie £15.50! A sausage, steak and dry gammon for a mixed grill £ 18.50. It was awful.

Slow service starters came 10-15 minutes apart long wait for mains over priced for quantity and quality of food

Disappointed meal expensive for quality of food starters came 15-20 minutes apart had to go to bar to ask quantity was small for amount paid Packet mash hard pie and call that a mixed grill ☹️

Lunch menu is great value for money

Great old fashioned bar with a big function room come resturant. Good choice of traditional ales, the staff were friendly and great service

Stopped here for a Sunday roast. Lovely olde world pub with a great atmosphere, friendly staff, good service and the food was unreal. We had the trio of meats roast dinner and everything was cooked to perfection. All the meats were beautiful, with lots on the plate, accompanied by fresh veg. The honey roasted carrots and parsnips were a delight and the gravy was so tasty. Absolutely first class. We will definitely be back here.

We called here for lunch on a warm sunny afternoon, so sat outside by the canal moorings. There was a good choice of food & the staff were very friendly.

We visited Th’owd Tithe Barn 25/06/2024 as a group of 4, we was really impressed with the quality and portion sizes of food that we received and ordered on the set menu at £17 per person, food was fresh, home made and plated very well (props to the chef) The staff made us feel welcome, they were also very helpful and friendly. Thank you for such a lovely dining experience, we hope to return in the near future.

Good spot for lunch. Small portions and not cheap but it's a great place to sit in the sun.

Booked a table at 6.45 on Sunday 2nd June as we were on a canal boat holiday and it looked like the ideal place next to the canal Less that a warm welcome from a woman who apparently "didn't normally work there" and perhaps was missing the point that if you have booked a table at the end of service the experience should be the same as the beginning. Despite booking a table we pointed in the general direction of tables and told to order at the bar quickly as the kitchen was closing in 15 minutes and we have run out of various menu items. We had an average main course and promptly left. Need less to say as we passed returning on the canal we booked else where, there are many options in Garstang only a few minutes walk away.

Friendly professional staff fabulous building right on the water side busy fathersday. lucky to get a table plenty of seating outside bit slow serving mains but food was good and good portions well worth a visit 👍

Lovely food, great service just had a slight issue with a burnt brownie, burnt black but my nephew didn't complain to me till he had pushed it round his plate. Staff were brilliant but we didn't want another one, had to lose a star for that but that was all.would recommend.

Been here today with my partner and his friend , always go here for food and drinks because we are local , I'm very disappointed in the food that was cooked for us today , normally really nice but today wasn't great at all, my partner had a garlic chicken wrap and let's just say for £9.50 you don't get much chicken. And then I ordered parmasen gargrilled chicken paparpella pasta in white wine sauce the chicken was really dry and it had bones in it , now in my eyes you don't put bones in a pasta dish.

Lump of gammon hard peas and eggyolk uncooked sent back and eggyolk returnred SOLID! Pastry of steak pie rock hard ?Microwaved cold uncooked cabbage. Need to employ a cook. My grand daughters can cook better meals! DISGUSTED. How can simple meals like these be ruined by "professionals" .

Lovely place for a drink and to sit by the canal. We stay often in our campervan, and the staff are always so welcoming to us and our dog.

It's a nice place but the food isn't very good. I ordered Louisiana burger with peanut satay sauce and Asian slaw. What I got was a rubbery burger with panko breadcrumbs, tartare sauce and white cabbage. Dessert was a bowl of ice cream with sauce on top and a lotus biscuit, instead of the sundae I ordered. Maybe they'd run out? 🤷‍♀️ I can see why they don't ask you how your meal was when they collect the plates. It wasn't awful, but it wasn't that nice either...and not what I ordered.

Beautiful location,beer garden next to canal , quiet place to sleep.

Nice staff, average food, dated dec, nice location.

Lovely pub. Veggie sausages and mash was great.

Had a lovely experience here, the roast was wonderful, and the vegetarian wellington was very scrumptious. The staff were all lovely, fred was very polite and funny. lovely atmos. would go again

Nice rustic pub, ideally located next to the canal. Good food choice and friendly staff. Update; the food on a more recent visit had fallen in standard. The chips were hard and crusty and the kids pizza lacked taste.

Bar lunch for four of us.Scouse lady was brilliant. Will be back if in the area.

Lovely food. Great atmosphere. Fantastic service And they sell mead by the bottle.

staff are very friendly, I had the pie it was as hard as nails, I know you should complain and get a freash meal, but it should be right first time.

Didn't have any foid, but as a location to chill with friends just perfect.

Had a great small family celebration here recently for an 80th birthday. The buffet was outstanding, and the staff were brilliant. A lovely venue, canal side, and atmospheric inside and out! Thank you Sue and team 💕

Been a while since we last visited,the food was good and plentiful,

Great atmosphere great food and dog friendly

This was such a lovely find on our homeward journey. The setting is idyllic next to the canal marina food was fantastic and the staff must be congratulated on their work ethic very friendly and helpful, Even dog friendly with no restrictions. WE WILL BE BACK SOON

Excellent pub with tradition feel, dog friendly and looking onto the canal. Well worth a visit food excellent, lots of old style trinkets to look at inside, a much better feel to the place now the tables are proper if you came here on the past it was like sat in pews at a church. Both was good but the seating gives it more of a charm. Small room to the side and a pub area to stand if that's your thing. Lots of car parking space and outside seating to get the loverly British weather. Drinks are pricey but you pay extra for the fantastic views and the staff are friendly.

Drove into the area to visit family and chose this pub due to its location. The menu was rustic however simple and lacked healthier options. In terms of drinks; diet coke and shandys were our main choices but were quite flat so we were initially dissatisfied. We ordered chicken burgers, steak, steak and ale pie with the option of mash instead of chips and the “healthier” option of the chicken burger which was quoted in the menu to “ditch the bun and swap the chips for salad”. The chicken burgers themselves were appetising but the presentation of them could be improved. The steak and ale pie was delivered to us with chips instead of mash which is not what was asked for, so at this point we were disappointed however didn’t mention this issue to a staff member as we felt it was unnecessary . The “healthier” option of the chicken burger which was to be a chicken salad came as chicken and chips which wasn’t even an item on the menu and so we asked for it to be with the salad that we had asked for and after a long wait we were delivered a bowl with a few lettuce leaves and some slices of cheese - this was extremely substandard and left the individual with disheartened hunger. We then ordered some coffees to finish off the meal but we were then informed that they had run out of milk so had to wait another 10 minutes. Overall the experience was unsatisfactory and we will not be returning.

Went today for Easter Sunday dinner with family. Booked 2 weeks ago. Was put on an awful table right by door so was cold . 2 of us ordered the roast beef dinner . The meat was so fatty& tough j couldn’t even cut it . Had to complain & the extra meat that was given was just as bad!! Was so disappointed we shall NEVER go back!!!

DO NOT GO TO THIS PUB the food is terrible - i got a southern fried chicken burger it was one goujon on a bun i asked for no salad it came is salad - my friend got fish it was size of a fish finger - we got a pie it was like a frozen pie from Iceland the garlic bread was like rubber and last of all the Sunday lunch had 2 small pieces of beef we paid extra fro cauliflower cheese hardly any cheese on --- the pub was very dark needs more lights - we would never go back to this pub !!!

Quaint canal side beer garden to sit out in the sun. Courteous and friendly staff offer up sumptuous meals which can be washed down along with your favourite tipple.

I find this building simply dazzling I love being inside. Food was very good service was attentive. Love it here.

Visited early evening for dinner and drinks. Chicken schnitzel which was fine, sausage and mash was ok but had better from there recently. The place was quite busy but not full. We ordered desserts.....the biscoff sundae was ok but again, had better there recently but my wife had the salted caramel brownie. it came out sone cold...even the bowl was fridge cold (perhaps that should have been obvious), and was rock hard. At the time I complained, there was another customer with exactly the same issue! It was warmed up but came back, still with no ice cream as it states on the menu. It was the worst, driest 'brownie' ever seen....a brownie is supposed to be moist as least. This was a piece of dry chocolate cake and definitely not worth £6.95!! There are much better places to eat in Garstang if this is the best the Tithe Barn can do. Very disappointed as should be a great place to eat! Also, they need to offer small bottles of prosecco.

Had a buffet yesterday it was absolutely amazing worth every penny and staff were brilliant

Location amazing. Food even better. Had the best gammon but all our food was good. Lovely surroundings and staff helpful but not intrusive. Give it a go

Has tea with friends, what a lovely place, nice staff and good atmosphere. Worth a visit 5 Stars

Superfriendly staff. Beautiful pub, can't wait to experience it in the summer.

Didn't eat here only had a drink, been here before and it's a lovely rustic building. Staff are always polite.

Thank you for a lovely Valentine's night evening meal. The tables were well decorated and the service great. Good food too at reasonable price and good drinks too. Lovely

Lovely bar by canalside bar good selection of ales and drinks friendly staff and as I good alot could do to change ales more always seem to be same on

Last minute decision to go for tea. Excellent food, we had a roast beef dinner and pie and chips. Tasty, hot and plenty of it. Lovely staff behind the bar. We will definately return, Thankyou

Absolutely lovely once again. Not been in a while but the food & atmosphere were great

Saturday night & decided to take a run out for something to eat. Stopping at the Th’Owd Tithe Barn. Hadn’t been in years, had seen it had changed ownership. Also some of the Facebook pictures looked good. Was early evening. Place wasn’t too busy. After we had got our drinks, found it wasn’t too warm either. Still, we ordered food. The starter was good baked Camembert. However, the mains were a massive let down. Gammon was fine, but hugely let down with Frozen Chips & Veg. My wife’s chicken burger looked, and she said it was dry. Also, more Frozen Chips. For such a unique place, it’s missing a big trick. Shame really, as the place has so much character & untapped potential.

Lovely venue really friendly staff, good food will definitely be back in the summer months,

Lovely pub with real old world character. Pub pretty quiet. Lunchtime visit. I had steak & ale pie, chips & mushy peas. All pretty good, pie was tasty. Not the biggest portion though. My wife had fish & chips, fish not the biggest or the best.

Called in for something to eat and drink at 6.30pm on Thursday 4th January 2024. Ordered chicken schnitzel and I ordered fish & chips (batter & chips)very disappointed as barely any fish just crispy batter, seriously. To cap it off a woman came in with dachshund and it proceeded to do a c__p in the bar in my full view. She scooped it up but the smell was disgusting. If I hadn't finished my meal wouldn't have paid for.

Book a New Years lunch for our family of 9 well I advance of Christmas, we arrived and was told to take any table as the booking system had gone down. We were told that someone would be with us to take our order, after waiting 25 min, even when the place was very quiet we decided to order at the bar. After waiting 15 min at the bar we managed to order food, the person behind the bar took our orders and check them off the availability of the order and said that they had everything we ordered. After waiting approximately 10 min a member of staff approached us and informed us that they did not have one of the meals we had ordered so we had to choose another option, the after another 5/10 min we were approached to inform us that they did not have two other meal so we had to choose another option. The picture below was taken of a mixed grill costing £19 an absolute joke. The other meal we received weren’t up to much and far far to pricey. On complaining the person behind the bar offered no discount, not even an apology just stating that the owners were not on site but they have my phone number from the booking and will be in touch guess what yep no one has been in touch. Very poor standard of food and lack of compensation will not eat there again and would suggest give it a wide birth

Fantastic pub. Came end of December for a birthday meal and had the Sunday roast. Thoroughly enjoyed it and would go as far as saying it was one of the best dinners we’ve ever had. Dessert was absolutely lovely too and we even got some ice cream for our baby. They had clean toilet facilities and high chairs too. The dog was welcomed and staff even fed her some treats. There was an area on the way in to collect water and bowl for your dog along with a blanket for them to lay on too which I thought was a lovely touch. We were visiting the area for a few days and ended up returning here for a second time due to enjoying it so much the first time. All staff were very helpful and welcoming - rare nowadays especially when your not a local🤣

Such an incredible place to go. Ales are pretty spot on and even though we didnt eat the food looked tasty! All the staff were lovely and so welcoming, even though it was during the busy period leading to Christmas. Most people forget that the staff are human too and do have stressful days. Will definitely be back

Excellent beer - Timothy Taylor - and a fascinating building.

Visited a few times since Sue took over. She’s doing an amazing job. Flatlanders were playing there last night. Awesome party night. Great start to the Christmas weekend. Thank you 🤩 🎄👌

It was OK, but took a long time to get served and fir the food to arrive.

A lovely find... 1st visit and it will definitely not be our last! Not only gorgeous food (stunning Sunday dinner!) but great value for money, generous portions, fantastic ambiance (stunning pub that is steeped in history) and most importantly the friendliest staff who made us feel really welcome and gave wonderful customer service. You can even bring your dog!! Thanks so much and see you again soon 😁

Gorgeous meal great staff prices brilliant and had people singing Carol's

Lovely character country pub however I have now eaten here twice and I have to say the food is extremely disappointing. Such a shame for a lovely pub.

Fantastic meal in a very unusual restaurant. I had the chicken snitzel it was really really good. The lady owner is extremely friendly and the atmosphere is very relaxed.

Absolutely love this place! All the staff are so so friendly! Especially sue! The food is great! Atmosphere so cosey! ❤️ Come here with friend and family, always feel welcome and look forward to a great time!

Called in for a pint ,great looking pub next to the canal ,friendly staff happy days..

We had a lovely meal here on a Thursday evening. The mains were excellent , the starters not as good due to the plates being cold for the mushroom dish and therefore lukewarm food. The battered halloumi was excellent and also the pork sausage dish.

Had a lovely Sunday lunch at the Barn. Staff are extremely welcoming, friendly and helpful; food was spot on, and the atmosphere is of perfect olde worlde cosiness. Couldn't fault the place - and no issues with parking, as I know a lot of past...

The head chef (at most 17 years old) has opening and closing the freezer down to a fine art. The Aldi prawns were to die for, the Asda chips even more so. BUT by far my favourite was the cardboard dressed up as garlic bread which finished the meal off perfectly. Highly recommended for those who have lost all tastebuds and like eating fish fingers. Building is amazing though.

Superb place fantastic food and the staff are your friends I would urge you to sample this superb canal side wonder, summer, Autumn and winter it is a delight

Hasn't changed inside for years. Great location by the canal but food needs a makeover and too many items on the menu were not available

Amazing pub, beautiful setting. Fabulous staff and the building is amazing. Welll recommended.

One of the nicest pubs we've ever been to. Lots of parking for boats and good jetty to climb on to.

Sunday roast amazing!!!!!! Cannot fault anything at all. Beautiful food lovely warm setting and would recommend to anyone. Sue the manager couldn’t do enough for us and all the staff are brill!

Excellent food at a reasonable price. Plenty of rustic charm. Staff very friendly and helpful. Will definitely be back.

Very welcoming owners. Lovely location by the canal. Dog and child friendly.

Lovely setting... Good service Canalside pub. Good selection of wine AND Timothy Taylor landlords on the pump.

Best roast dinner I’ve ever had! Freddie doesn’t look like a Freddie he looks like a joe :) Lucy also waited on us and was very pleasant :D
