We made an unplanned lunchtime visit to celebrate my daughter moving out (sorry, for a fond…read morefarewell). I have to say that the menu wasn't extensive and if you are the type that likes a steak you would be sorely disappointed. The main feature was the carvery, pizza they do, burgers too but that's about all. The staff were helpful with allergy issues and directed us to an app designed by the company to check their menu for allergens. There was a small (and slightly uninspiring) salad bar and we were allowed to help ourselves to chips from the carvery counter which was an added bonus. For those in the know there are on line deals such as 2 for 1 pizza and even without that prices were reasonable.

Been here once, when a friend invited us along to 'help' them with the pub quiz, and I was quite…read moresurprised at just how nice it was. We sat in lovely large, comfy sofas, and after buying the original round at the bar, we were waited on at the table. I'm not sure if that's just on quiz nights, but it made a lovely change. Prices were fairly average for this type of family/food pub, and I didn't eat but friends said that it's not bad at all. There's also a play area, but I didn't have the kids with me so didn't check that out - again I was told it's good. Handy as there's a small Tesco next door and a few take-aways so depending on how much you've had to drink, you can pick up a kebab and/or a pint of milk on the way home.

Went for the first time (Wednesday night 03/08/2011)…read more (the bill came to over £20 for two of us). We both had starters prawn cocktails, however they didn't come with any sauce, but had a separate tiny little pot on the side of the plate (I love the sauce and is the only reason I ever have prawn cocktail so was rather disappointed). I had the sirloin steak and Cheryl had Fajita's. I asked for the steak to be cooked medium rare, but was a bit too rare for me, could have done with a bit longer. It was supposed to be 8oz however had about 4oz of fat on it :( Beer prices were good and they did server John Smiths. Atmosphere was drab, there wasn't any background music playing though and all you could hear was chav FM every time the kitchen door was flung open. Does have a beer garden that looked like it would be good in the sunshine & even a kids play area at the end of the building. Not somewhere I would rush back to, but the service was good (no one else in the pub though) and food was average for that kind of pub (could have been better). Not great value for money but wasn't a complete rip-off.

I went here for the first time a couple of weeks ago to try out the famous buffet advertised on the…read morepubs websites and in local papers. My first impressions were that it seemed to be a very nice traditional pub with a good atmosphere and friendly bar staff. A good selection of beer, fair prices and a nice seating lay out. However the buffet food was absolutely vile. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. At £6.50 a head to eat as much as you like you can find much better in Hillsborough. I felt I had wasted my money and felt ill for the rest of the evening and the next day. I'm very rarely one to ever complain about food but this was bad. The only good thing about it was the soup for starters and I wished I'd just had about 6 bowls of that instead of any of the main courses. As soon as we finished we left and we won't be back again.

This large pub is situated on 'Blackstone Edge', which is on the Moors leading over to West…read moreYorkshire. On clear days, you get fantastic views of the moors & surrounding villages. ...It can be a wee bit chilly & windy though, if you need to have a smoke outside! The food menu is extensive: ranging from snacks, main meals, specials & a la carte. So, there is something available to suit all budgets, large or small. The portions are generous & alot of the dishes are home-made on the premises. Customer service is friendly. It is a great pub for all the family, and also good for special occasions. The location is a great spot for walkers, to take a rest & grab a drink & a bite to eat. You can also, just have a hot drink with a sweet, if thats what you fancy. There are entertainment nights, which include: quizzes, discos, themed nights & local artists. I feel that the only downside to this pub, is that it is a little out of the way, from the main Village - so transport is required. Therefore - you may need to abstain from alcohol consumption, if a car is your only means of getting there.
