Top Places and Services in United Kingdom

Very nice pub! Lovely atmosphere great food. Got very busy and extremely loud after 5pm on a Saturday (to be expected) and people were itching for seating. Food was on point and service was attentive. Will Definitely be visiting again

Great quality, inexpensive food for everyone. Great staff and service. The place is clean and has great facilities. Be cautious if you're driving, plenty of people who for some reason think they have priority parking tend to park in baffling positions with little care for everyone else.

After a walk up Holcombe Hill the staff were extremely welcoming. Lovely pub snacks and drinks for us and the dog. Would definitely recommend.

We visited on a Saturday which in hindsight wasn't the best day. We have been several times in the past & one thing that usually stands out (for a Green King pub) is the range of quality cask ales available. Today was no exception, the mainstays are usually Hawshead bitter, Odin pale, Timothy Taylor Landlord, Bank Top Flat Cap to name four & two others, Speckled Hen and usually one from Bowland. In my experienkce the beers have always been well kept & in good condition, today was no exception. Unfortunately, (for me) the pub has several TV's and it just happened to coincide with a "match day", consequently it was really noisy. Luckily the pub is big enough to usually find a side space away from the worst of it. During the week it is usually a lot quieter. The menu is pretty typical of "pub" style offerings , but is varied enough to cater for most tastes with a special limited lunchtime menu offered at reduced rates. All the items we ordered were freshly cooked, tasty & represented good value. The only downside on the day were the toilets which sadly were not the cleanest. All that said, overaul it was a pleasent experience, the beer was excellent & the food hit the spot. To top it off the staff were helpful & friendly.
Addendum: Made a follow up visit on the evening of Thurs 4th Jan 24, as on my previous visit the pub was very noisy, in that there were several small groups of over happy people who were extremley loud. Luckily I did manage to find a quieter spot in a side room. Once again the beers were in excellent condition, having tried the Odin, Hawkshead Pale, Flat Cap & Landlord. Despite it being busy the two staff behind the bar were unphased & both were pleasent & helpful. I didn't manage to check the toilets this time, but overall it was a very pleasent experience.

The food was different, for example, I had smoked pulled mushroom chilli with rice, which was a dish I've never seen elsewhere, they also had a vegetarian Katsu curry which my friend had the chicken version and said it was delicious, it definitely smelled nice and my other friend had a burger with chips and onion rings which again looked very tasty, again they did a vegetarian version. Other options were; mac n cheese, supergrain salad with corn ribs or vegan burger.
Although the chap who served us was pleasant enough, it would have been nice if he'd taken our order at the table, especially since it was quiet when we first entered at 6pm. I'm not sure who's fault it was, but we received our main courses before our starters. They obviously took them away, but we had to wait longer for them to make them. Again some different vegetarian options including; halloumi fries with chilli sauce, meat-less tacos, which were a bit dry, corn ribs or nachos to share.
I'll definitely go again and try the other vegetarian dishes, worth a second visit.
PS. I apologise for the poor photos as we'd started eating before I remembered to take a picture.
