Reviews in Kirkham

My wife and families are regulars at this venue due to the food and service being 1st. class.

BEWARE! The manager does not care! I visited on 21st August, and had the king prawns. Within half a hour I felt Ifaint hot and clammy and very tired. I spent the whole night being sick. I was doubled over and could not stand straight. The next day my head hurt so much I couldn't lift it off the pillow and I could not move out of bed. I had to have the day off work. I am a dental nurse and my dentist had to cancel patients. My husband called into the pub and was told the manager was off and would ring the next day, however the chef insisted the prawns were if anything over cooked. I rang the next night and spoke to the manager who quite honestly did not give a damn. He said he would ring back, I said are you not going to say sorry and ask am I feeling any better? Needless to say I am still waiting for my phone call. I lost 2 1/2lb after eating there, so if you want a fast weight loss this is the place to go.

My husband and I, were treated like Royalty here on Sunday evening!! I ordered Cottage pie and my husband ordered Steak. I am very fussy about eating out as I pride myself on my home cooking but I have to hold my hand up and say that this cottage pie was as good - NAY - I might even say better - than mine! Likewise, himself doesn't always enjoy the eating-out experience. However, he was mighty impressed with his steak which was cooked to perfection, which he always says is either over or under done but this one was Bob-on!! The rice pudding after was delicious and very moreish (as the man on the next table was saying) and when we finished, we were as full as an egg. Mine host is warm and hospitable (as are all the staff) and afterwards we can get some fresh air outside by the canal. Altogether a satisfying event. Highly recommended.

Lovly pub shame about the sandwiches!! Had 2 extremely plain looking roast ham sandwiches, dry bread with a pot of coleslaw... Disapointed as it was £5!! Strongbow was flat too!! Buck up e&c at least a bit of side salad?!?

Visited ribby hall for weekend and tried this place for dinner. Food was very nice although expensive for a caravan site. I enjoyed my dinner as did the mrs, but the service was not good to start off with. It did improve after a bit so it might be a new member of staff. Still enjoyed my food though.

Definitely one of the best Indian restaurants around, I live in heywood and sometimes travel 47 miles there, it's that good!!

Enjoyed the great value takeaway deal listed above. A tenner for a great Indian meal and delivered!

This restaurant advertises special offers that are only available for takeaway not dine in, without any mention of this. They said it was a mistake by sugarvine funny as they've made same mistake on their own website.

You can always rely on fine service from the host with the most Martin.

23rd may Just had the worst pub food (worst food ever that i have to pay for) at this venue. Please don't wast your time or money. This is the first review i have written but feel i had to warn others not to waste money ..the bill £34. Am now home and making my wife and i something edible to eat

Had a table booked at 7 o clock for a birthday meal, we were still not seated nor had our orders been taken by 7.30 although many other people who seemed regulars and had come in after us were seated with their orders taken! After my husband having to ask if we could order our food, and be seated, we then had to wait over 45 minutes for our food whilst watching people who arrived after us enjoying theirs!! Our food order was wrong, the chips were hard all in all would rather the food as mediocre, staff were not particularly helpful at all and after asking were our food was they just replied they were serving another table first (who arrived after us!!) . Would not go again in a million years

Having read the reviews about The Hand and Dagger we decided to try it for ourselves. We certainly were not disappointed. We were greeted by a large open fire and very friendly staff. The decor is subdued but very tasteful. All the food was really good, well cooked and nicely presented. Our friends, who live local to the pub, were amazed at how good everything was and how friendly the staff were. We will definitely be back. G and E.

We went to Ribby restaurant which was very very good, Food was very nice, atmosphere good and fab service! Loved the huge Yorkshire puddings and great kids menu! Well worth a visit! Nice piano playing too!!

Excellent food, friendly host. Good, honest unpretentious food and surroundings. Wish all pubs were like this!

Good food and nice place.

Great selection of food, great service, great atmosphere an all round great night!!

We have dined here a couple of times recently and have been really impressed each time. the food is always of a great standard and has never failed to please us. The surroundings an clientele also help make this an enjoyable evening not to mention the friendly and attentive staff. Thanks to all the team and see you soon
