The Bay Horse

The Bay Horse Chorley looks like a traditional British pub because, in many ways, it is. The food, however, could not be more Mediterranean and is without doubt some of the best of its kind in town. The team in the kitchen at The Bay Horse combine local ingredients to prepare wholesome Mediterranean dishes that we and Chorley locals can’t get enough of. The atmosphere is always relaxed and The Bay Horse has a charming beer garden as well. You’ll find it on Preston Road as you head through Whittle-le-Woods where we recommend arriving armed with a reservation if you want to be sure of a table.
