Trad Lancashire pub tiny doily coasters for your beer, lots of trinkets on shelves, a formal…read moredining room etc. And a clientele to go with lots of grannies done up in their best dresses. And largely excellent food to go with. OK, so the plus points: if you want hearty trad food, then this place is excellent good portions, big, bold flavours and a reasonable range of stuff (if you don't mind it leaning towards the cheesy/stodgy) for veggies like me. Plus lovely staff. (And it's not far from the motorway if you're passing through.) The minus points? First, a fairly unwelcoming attitude among other patrons (most likely the regulars or people staying in the nearby caravan park). Not only did I hear us being called foreigners (yup, us Londoners had dared to stop off here rather than go to a service station on way back down motorway), but the overall effect leans heavily towards the starchy while serving staff were very friendly towards our young kids, we ended up in the garden, as it seemed easier to handle the kids there and there were far fewer pursed lips from the other patrons at our kids daring to be boisterous (and well-behaved I might add). Second, the food is really resolutely trad while battered cauliflower florets with chilli mayonnaise was awesome, as was the cheese pie and mushroom and leek crumble, the main courses came with a metal serving dish of old-school unadorned steamed veg (carrots, peas, mashed and roast potatoes). So, a) meat eaters will do far better than vegetarians in general (although we did fine), b) it's not a place for fancy modern food, but big flavoured pub grub. If you don't mind those warnings, and want a big full belly of flavour, Ye Horns will sort you out.

Best find on holiday ever!!…read more Set in a beautiful little village with a huge village green with loads of parking round and about (although im sure that on a mid summer sunny day parking may be somewhat difficult!). The pub has a bar area and a restaurant area - we only ever went into the bar as you could eat int here and it was really cosy (dogs are also allowed!). The staff were incredibly friendly and chatty (lets face it, Yorkshire, particularly North Yorkshire folk are possibly the most friendly on the planet - i challenge you to disprove this!). The food was INCREDIBLE. Nothing fancy pants, just really good food, VERY big portions (trust me on this, you dont need three courses - choose your weapon of starter or dessert to go alongside your main - we made the mistake one night and 1) couldnt eat it all and 2)pretty much rolled home). We spent an evening in the pub, had a meal and then sat playing card games - we felt incredibly welcome. So welcome that we ended up visiting three times in a week long holiday. You cant really get a better recommendation than that can you??

Black Sheep was the cask beer, well kept and served by friendly bar staff. A glance at the locally inspired menu convinced me that we'll back soon to try the food. Starters include Bury black pudding & Chorizo with poached egg, hollandaise sauce and rocket and chorizo salad; Goosnargh Chicken Liver and Port Pate; and Morecambe Bay shrimps. Mains include 28 day hung Rib Eye steak, Lancashire Hotpot and Home made Beef and Guinness pie. Quiz night on Thursdays and live music on Fridays. Years ago this pub was truly awful but a complete refurbishment and new ownership a couple of years ago (ish) has completely transformed it. Lucky Elswick!

Dogs are made welcome and cyclists and walkers who have taken advantage of the local countryside have welcomed the warm wood burning fires in the winter months. I like that you can personalise your meal by choosing a main course and then adding vegetables as desired. The desserts are also home made - cheescakes are a speciality. The pies are made with a family heritage pastry from the owner's grandmother. The chef offers specialities on a weekly basis. We visited on Christmas Eve 2021 and Valentines Day 2022 and enjoyed the set menus. Well worth a visit.

We spent the remainder of our holidays here, every evening. Nestling by a brook full of eels. The pubs dog, Jasper, loved to just stand in the cooling water on the hot evenings that we experienced this July. Sufficient room to sit outside with plenty of tables. Service is second to none. Professional, efficient and, more to the point, friendly. Great selection of real ales, my favourite was the Cromwell. Now to the reason for frequenting this hostelry, the food. A reasonable menu taking into account the position of this pub. A good varied choice of fresh seafood, burgers, curries and steaks. We tried most of them and they all were extremely tasty. All cooked to order. Great mussels in white wine. Behind the bar is a blackboard describing their Naga 'Viper' curry made with, 'officially', the hottest chilli pepper. Underneath is written 'Curries ordered 528, curries eaten 400' LOL. I love hot curries but, even I, would not attempt it. We hope to make a return visit next year. Many thanks to the 'guvner', his wife, the staff (especially the chef and kitchen staff) for making our short holiday break a total delight. See you again.
