Reviews in Lancashire

Great food and beer, friendly staff we will be eating and drinking hear again and again.

Terrible. Over 25 mins to take your order and over 40 mins to get your main. Food was bland and overcooked. My steak was charred to a frazzle and although it said the antipasto comes with crusty bread it turned up with a stale piece of brown bread. Overpriced, uninspiring and service non existent.

Called up to see if they were still unlicensed and had the phone put down on me! Charming.

The Fenwick has risen again having defeated many, even the attentions of the great Gordon Ramsey. Now run by the Seafood Pub Company of Assheton Arms fame. The menu is not just fish and should satisfy most tastes. . From the outside the pub is not inspiring, right on the road, with a carpark-side terrace. Inside it is plain, almost stark, but very comfortable. The food is a triumphant delight. Superb produce cooked to perfection with side harmonies making up luscious plates. Service is swift, humorous, well informed and very professional. We had a pleasing and very very good lunch and can only hope that this time the Fenwick is here to stay, and will prove a worthy competitor to the nearby Highwayman.

I have eaten here many times over the years and have never been disappointed.The food and service are second to none,I also love the unique atmosphere and the great space to eat in there.First class service always with a smile.

We visit on numerous occasions and have always been more than pleased with the food..The menu is extensive , the only complaint is that the portions are much too large, We are happy that the menu has been revised and that there are now smaller portions on some items . We certainly continue to visit on a regular basis.

Awful tasteless food and ignorant staff

I went last week and believe me it will me the LAST time i go, after being spoken to like a idiot by a man who i understood was called Leeroy. He took our order by shouting from across the "restaurant". he then cooked it himself while filling the place up with smoke and filling the street outside with smoke, somehow! food had clearly been frozen (maybe multipul times). I was vomitting 8 hours after into the night. Disgusting food, awful service and in general foul!

Can't believe how hit & miss this pub is. It must depend on who is doing the cooking. As in the past it was ok. but recent visits the meat is as been not fit for a dog & the house wine is cheap plonk very dissapointed a nice pub going down hill fast not worth the money for poor quallity

No problem handing over card - it gets locked in a safe to which you are given the only key. On to the important stuff: great food, excellent choice of drinks allied to superb service. Many of the top restaurants could learn about hospitality from Graham and his young lady colleagues, greet every customer, make them welcome and acknowledge their departure with a friendly word.

dont eat here!! the environmental health have been here because of the rodent problem but it is not the cleanliness that's the problem but the lack of ethical practice. the chicken if you ate it was probably left out overnight to defrost where the mice can get to it then their faeces picked off and served up to customers !! how do iknow well lets just say i have seen the evidence. i want to make this clear this is not the fault of the normal staff they are all conscientious good people and even the owners do not know how long this has been going on but it is and it still does probably because the staff who know are told to keep thier mouths shut. its a shame as someone will get seriously ill one day and the decent staff will lose out so will the owners all because of one person who is more worried about being found out than the health of the public

The Italian Orchard is one of my wife's absolute favourite restaurants and so we try and get here as often as possible. We jumped at the chance to bring our ten year old daughter for her birthday yesterday! The weather was aweful but once we arrived nobody even noticed. The food was excellent, the ambiance was as always relaxed and unobtrusive and the service was very good. I don't know of anywhere else you might go on a Tuesday lunchtime and get a live pianist!! Very highly recommended!!

This country pub near Beacon Fell is full of character and I love the fact that you can sit either n front of or behind the bar (hard to explain unless you visit for yourself). A nice meal as always and left with a Lancashire cheese bomb and a brace of pheasants under my arm.

Had Lancashire Hotpot - very little meat nor carrots. It did have a good enough taste and the sliced potato on top well done.

v friendly, top beers and spirits. good music.

My first visit to Shaman was a wonderful experience, excellent food excellent service and excellent value for money, can't wait to treat my husband to meal there in the near future .

Dreadful Disgusting Food Dirty Cold Place!Took Mum for meal that was completely inedible. Complained to the bar maid and asked to speak to manager but was told he wasn't about. The food was badly cooked and tepid, we had fish and chips and the chips were undercooked, the fish was very greasy and the peas were cold. I was really disappointed! This pub is letting down Lancashire! It could be so much better but it seems like the person or people who own it are past caring. It is dirty, cluttered and shabby, with a complete mismatch of tables and seating etc. It's clear that the place is run on a shoestring, with no quality or care in it's food provision. The Ship is a place to AVOID!
