The Sparrowhawk - Pendle

When we are visiting Burnley the Sparrow Hawk is our pub of choice. Last night we visited with friends new to the area and they were very impressed with the pub and their meal. My husband is a vegetarian and said his was the best vegetarian pub meal he'd ever had. Excellent service too with a smile. Many thanks.

Excellent food, fresh vegetables, home cooked chips and home made steak and ale pie was delicious, staff are very welcoming. Brought our dog wio qas also made very welcome, thankyou to everyone

The food at this restaurant was delicious and served promptly. The waitstaff were friendly and talkative, giving us great recommendations for dishes. I would suggest making a reservation in advance as we did, as the restaurant was busy with locals at the bar area when we arrived. If we hadn't booked beforehand, we may not have been able to get a table.

Me and my mum went for a drink on a Saturday afternoon as the weather was lovely. We sat in the garden out at the front and I had a look at the menu and decided I wanted to order some Brie bites off the bar snacks menu. These cost me just shy of £7 and when they came out I was shocked at the portion size! I had TWO, triangular shaped bites in a ramekin with salad piled up underneath to make it seem full. The cranberry sauce jam was lovely and the bites were nice but it was an absolute joke to be served only two for £6.95. When my mum went in to mention that we were disappointed, the lady who looked like the manager on shift said “yes, two” when my mum said was that really how many we get, and then turned her back on her. There was no offer of any sort of apology, apart from the waitress who was apologetic and said it had actually already been mentioned before! If this is the case why has nothing been done about it already? A really poor overall experience and we won’t be coming back for any main meals. Really sad as my mother used to come frequently when she was younger and really enjoyed it.

The meat man from Pasture Farm and his family would like to thank you all.Excellent food and service
