Ordered the seafood risotto which arrived raw, it was inedible I sent it back for the same plate to return with the response it's supposed to be like that? So do i want it or not? Never have I had rissoto that was so hard it could of chipped a tooth . Needless to say we won't be returning.

The restaurant was unusually quiet this lunchtime but, as a party of 6, we created our own ‘atmosphere’. This was far from our first visit and the food and service were excellent, as expected. The only thing that was not good was that the restaurant was quite chilly with just the one fire to warm the rooms. There did not appear to be any central heating on. As our table was by the door, there was an icy blast everytime anyone walked in. Shame, everything else was excellent.

Was looking forward to eating here as we'd been before a couple of years ago and really enjoyed it. Food was average at best. Boiled tasteless veg reminded me of school dinners. The duck breast I had was ok as was the sauce. Let down by the aforementioned veg. We had to signal to order drinks,again to order food, again to order more drinks and then came the dessert menu which was left with us for 40 mins without anyone taking our order. I the end we decided to get up, pay and leave. Whenever the staff did come over they were apologetic but was exactly the same issues each time to get their attention. Seemed to be two young kids running the place. The place wasn't exactly busy so I don't quite understand why so bad tonight. Unfortunately I don't think I'll be back after tonight's visit.

Lovely pub. Good quality and well presented food. Staff were attentive, but not overly so. Just got the right balance. Great ambience & great décor. Everything a country pub should be. We especially loved the big settee in front of the fire. Only disappointment was that there was only one (poor) cask ale on out of 3 pumps. Disappointing. Overall though, a great night out. Will definitely return.

Lovely meal as we have found on this and previous visits. Table allocated was not very good. Right near door. Absolutely freezing every time door opened. Must have been worst table position in restaurant with a lovely white twig tree directly at side/back of chair difficult to get in and out. Asked to be moved and given a much better table. So it turned out perfect in the end. Singer on too. Definitely would recommend. Service a little slow but in all fairness was very busy with a few large groups in.

Took my parents for a Birthday meal and it was fabulous! Sitting by a real fire with a glass of wine on a Friday evening was bliss for pre dinner drinks. Was shown through to our table and had an amazing feast! Well done Kevin and all the staff!

Lovely good value food in a nice environment with very friendly staff. We can certainly recommend the braised beef main coarse which was a real plateful and very tasty. The festive draught beer was also very nice but probably not available for much longer!

Great food and attentive service. Would be even better if the menu changed periodically or there was a ‘specials’ board. A more interesting wine list would be nice too. Still has to be one of the best eating places for miles.

We had a very nice meal overall although we didn't have a lot of space as our table was in a corner. We enjoyed the food which was fairly expensive in comparison to other similar places nearby, but very nice so worth the extra money. The service was very good and staff very pleasant.

Had another fantastic afternoon at the Hinds Head. My sister was up from the south coast and whenever they visit Chorley and we go out....its poor....they must think there are no nice places in Chorley and we don't know how to cater as a town. Anyway, the Hinds Head bucked the trend (as we knew it would) and it was lovely. All the staff (apart from one...who we were not impressed with and was downright rude) were lovely...young, fresh, helpful, friendly and efficient. Service was great apart from the lass highlighted above who thought that saying 'if we get rid of them on that table then that will free up some space' as the restaurant became busy. I would not mind if we had overstayed our welcome and 'hogged' the table. If she was going to say such a thing it should have been behind the scenes and not within earshot of customers. That said....it was another super visit and of course we will be back. I only highlight the issue over the member of staff so they can sort it....I would say that she does not fit with the 'can do' positive culture of the Hinds Head. Thanks again to Kev and the team.
