Best Gastro Pubs in Penwortham

The cooking has gone up a notch since our last visit a couple of months ago, really lovely food, the staff still as great as ever, the set linch excellent value but .... BUT still the same ***** awful seventies disco music. We will still be going back though, and probably still questioning the choice of music content! ps They love dogs in the bar area, best place next to a wood burner.

Our first time at The Hawthorn. Was a lovely restaurant. Greeted by very helpful polite staff. Very accommodating. Nothing was too much trouble. Efficient and professional. Pleasant and polite. I had the flat iron Steak with peppercorn sauce and crispy skin on fries. Absolutely delicious. Couldn’t find fault. Service was very prompt. The fries were the best I’ve ever tasted. My husband had the Burger with fries and he really enjoyed it too. Plenty of choices from the wine and beverage section. Prosecco was very nice as was the Ilkley beer. We didn’t have room for desert. Again nice choices from a traditional menu. Very nice indeed and we will definitely be returning.

Absolutely perfect ! I had the soup ( parsnip ) and the mushrooms, absolutely delicious! Husband had the steak pie. The service is always amazing and it was last night. What a wonderful evening! I could not recommend highly enough! Thank you !

I absolutely love this place, visited today after a while away. Booked again the Christmas menu next month. Staff are superb, friendly and helpful. Thank you.

A lovely warm welcome, excellent food served by attentive and kind staff Thank you so much . We had a lovely evening
