The best restaurants serving British food in Blackburn with Darwen North West

Awful food tastes like cardboard, also the landlord needs to go on a customer service course. Arrogant and does not have a clue about running a pub. Save some money and go to McDonald’s next door even that is 100% better, don’t just take my word for it look at the other reviews

A classic fish and chip shop with crispy, golden-battered fish and perfectly cooked chips. The portions are generous, and the food is always fresh. Friendly service, reasonable prices, and a great choice for a quick, tasty meal. Highly recommended!

This remains to be a lovely setting and place to treat yourself. We have been used to impeccable standards and I fully expected to be reviewing this at 4, if not 5 stars. We had booked for our anniversary and my wife had added drinks on arrival as a surprise, which was undone by the staff not being aware of this. The restaurant main area had a very large family party (30 or so people) and we hadn’t been made aware of this during our confirmation call - as we may have asked to be placed in a quieter area. The food was excellent and hot, although quite swift in service, so we felt somewhat rushed. It’s a shame that this didn’t love up to expectations, and our experience of our numerous previous visits.

We booked for lunch (2adults, 2 kids). It was half full in the restaurant when we arrived but we were told it would be a 30 minute wait on food. We agreed to stay despite the wait and ordered some drinks that would fill the kids up for a bit (milkshake and smoothie). When we asked if we could order food we were told “I can’t take your food order yet”. I’ve been told about food wait times many times before in restaurants but never told I can’t actually place an order. I asked why and the waitress said “I’ve been told not to and I’ll get in trouble if I do”. So the menus were left on the table until they were ready. When they brought the drinks over we asked if we could order yet (20 mins into arriving), and waitress just walked off to find out. Eventually took our order and rushed us through it with no manners. The team really need some customer service training. It’s the experience people pay for, and what makes people come back (or not if our case). Previous reviews mention customers being made to feel uncomfortable and I can completely relate.

This was the first time we had returned to the hotel, since we got married there 15 years ago.. We had the same room and took advantage of the gin experience and ate there as well. Firstly the staff are amazing. Blake leads a fantastic team, every single member cannot do enough for you. Our room was perfect and so big. The meal at dinner was unbelievable, very high quality at a very competitive price. The high light was the gin experience. Blake is so knowledgeable and engaging.. We actually made our own gin that we took home with us… The bar was well stocked with local beers and obvs house gin… Breakfast again was perfect. We will deffo be back and not leave it so long next time…

This Hotel was the worst I have ever been to. Mould in the bath/Shower Poor Wi-Fi Blood on the carpet Noisy guests on either side No staff on site at night or weekends

Staying on business, 2 younger members of staff were helpful but the woman who appeared to be in charge was extremely rude and put a palm towards me while I was talking to her about what I wanted to order. Won't be back.

Friday night treat!! It has become a weekly occurrence that after work on a Friday we nip to brewsters for a £5 meal. Can’t go wrong with that! Always great quality and the kids love the play area after a full day at nursery! 🍽️

It is a real hidden gem. Food excellent good selection for all. Pub is family friendly and welcomed dogs. I highly recommend this for family lunches and cosy evenings. Staff are brilliant.

Decided to have a quick lunch on our way home but sorry I did so Cheap processed food was served The cafe was almost empty on a lovely day which didn't surprise me

We were on our way home from Preston and trying to think of a good chippy in Blackburn but sadly we realised all the good ones were no longer open. We came across Cherry Tree chippy but wondered if it would be ok as it’s a Chinese take away ( not that we’re averse to a Chinese) . We ordered steak pud ( Hollands) chips, large mushy peas and large gravy. Theirs plenty of chips for 2 in a portion of chips. It was absolutely delicious and hot even though we were several miles from home. Took a menu and we will certainly be back. Staff really pleasant and quick service.

I've not been here for years and certainly won't call again. The sandwich I got was dry with brown lettuce for salad. The t-cake was big but you could hardly taste the filling as there wasn't enough on it. To say I was disappointed is an under statement.

Found this place by chance called in and and ordered a breakfast barm (sausage bacon egg mushrooms and blackpudding ) and a coffee, all at very good price, the staff were helpful and the place was clean and warm. Would I call again yes if I was in the area

The food was amazing as always, we couldn't find a thing to fault them on, staff were friendly definitely recommend this place.

We have been coming here for many years with various family members. The last five years with grandchildren who love the play area and staff. Katie is definitely one of their favourites as she is ours.
