    My friends treated me to a meal at the Sparrow Hawk in Fence for my birthday (well I treated them…read moreactually) and it was refreshing to find somewhere that sells genuine fine cuisine in the Burnley area. The pub itself is charming and quaint and the food was sublime! I had a shared starter which was ample for two and included cold cuts of wild boar, duck and chicken with olives, fresh bread and plenty of other bits to dip and nibble at. Everyone enjoyed their main courses and the lamb shank I chose fell off the bone and melted in the mouth. Since it was a birthday celebration, we all forced down desserts as well to make the most of the evening! The pub is more upmarket than most and this is reflected in the clientèle. It's warm, friendly and relaxed. The staff were all friendly and attentive without pestering you every five minutes and I really can't fault the experience. Perhaps the only reason I've dropped a star is because of the price with a meal for 3 costing me a couple of pounds short of £100 but they say you get what you pay for and the Sparrow Hawk is a case in point.

    A very traditional style local, this is the real thing - not themed - with a really friendly and…read morecosy atmosphere. Just love the real fires, they give the place a unique extra special feeling. The foods always excellent quality, well presented and worth the time to visit even if its out of your way. I keep updated on their web site for events and special days. You do need to book on occasions as it is popular, I'll very likely be there as it is one of our favourite places, we just can't stay away.

    A great place for families to go and let the kids loose whilst having a bargain meal. It's noisy,…read morecheap and everything comes with chips and boiled peas. The food isn't great but is at least edible. There's a selection of meals that are 2 mains for £8.45 so you can't expect much. As a filler it'll do. The platters were good with variety, but it's lots of frozen things deep fried. My advice would be to head to Sycamore Farm in Burnley that does the same thing better.

    Avoid. At all costs…read more Okay-- maybe a little harsh. The exterior is inviting, with its authentic thatched roof and all. But we should have known by the price of food advertisements outside ("2 meals for the price of 1!"-- which my husband says is the telltale sign that the food will be bad) that we should have skipped right over this place for a more quaint, out of the way pub on our way for a day out in Skipton. But hunger won out and we went in just the same. Upon first glance, it wasn't so bad. Your typical road side chain pub. It looked clean, there were a fair number of people in for lunch and there were no disturbing smells or sounds emanating from anywhere. But the next clue of what was to come-- the inordinate amount of gambling and video games throughout, should have sent us running the other way. The menu was massive-- another clue that the food was to be mediocre at best. As Gordon Ramsey always says, be good at a few things, you can't be good at it all (well, he doesn't say it like that exactly, and surely there would be a lot more expletives thrown in there but you catch my drift). There was so much, I didn't know what to choose... but it wouldn't have mattered. It was all pretty dismal. But what really did it in was the service. I've certainly come to have low expectations of service in general in England-- and no, I shouldn't expect much from a roadside pub, but this was spectacularly bad. Particularly given that it was the kind of place where you order at the bar and they just (almost literally) throw your food at you. I doubt that many people could have been having that bad of a day-- unless they were all told the pub was going out of business and they were all being made redundant. Well, maybe that's not too far-fetched. But they all did look like their dog had gotten hit by a mail truck. The atmosphere was that desperate. Long story short? Keep driving-- there's more to be found further down the motorway...
