Ok so about the fourth time we have eaten here .... Everyone makes mistakes and it's about how you recover the mistake. . 3 drinks ordered 2 out if the 3 were wrong but it was sorted no quibble.... Starters camembert wedges ... The cheese was on the plate under the empty breadcrumb shells ...but tasted ok ... Prawn and mango cocktail was great only suggestion sometimes more is less .... Way too much lettuce...pate was nice but needed more butter casing to use... Mains 8oz sirloin faultless ... Medium exactly as requested ... Kedgeree fishcakes needed more sauce as they were a little dry but size was spot on poached eggs are terrible To do at the best of times but it was ok now .... The belly pork ....3 lots of crackling in total all like rubber bands first pork like a bullet really hard and dry so the was sent back a round of drinks were provided whilst we waited a fresh pork.... Much much better and piping hot ...now Desserts.... Waited 25 is minutes and a very apologetic man said the order has been missed and offered another round of drinks caramel biscuit torte very powdery filling possible a supplier fault just not whipped enough..but other than that tastes ok... Orange blossom creme brulé cracked exactly as it should though it stated biscuits there were a couple of not so nice bendy cookie drops I think they were ....the the masterpiece in the picture ... Black forest in a flower pot .... An edible chocolate flower pot of some of the best sorbet I've tasted ...fantastic ... All in all an ok meal but had much much better there ...

If you're looking for a place to enjoy some great food and a warm atmosphere, The River Wyre Pub is a must-visit. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by Alana and her welcoming team, who made me feel right at home. And the food? Well, let's just say that it was some of the best I've had in a while. I had the pleasure of trying several dishes, including the Steak Pie, Signature Burger, Forestiere Chicken Breast, Pâté, and Slow-Cooked Pork Belly. And I can honestly say that they were all fantastic. The Steak Pie was packed with tender chunks of beef and a rich gravy that was simply delicious. The Signature Burger was juicy and flavorful, with a perfectly cooked patty and all the toppings you could ask for. The Forestiere Chicken Breast was another standout, with tender, succulent chicken and a creamy mushroom sauce that was out of this world. The Pâté was a great starter, with a smooth texture and an earthy flavor that was both delicate and satisfying. And finally, the Slow-Cooked Pork Belly was a real treat, with melt-in-your-mouth meat and a tangy glaze that brought out all the flavors of the dish. Overall, I couldn't recommend The River Wyre Pub enough. Alana and her team were friendly, attentive, and made me feel like a valued guest. And the food? Well, let's just say that I would happily order any of those dishes again. So if you're in the area and looking for a great pub experience, be sure to stop by The River Wyre Pub – you won't be disappointed.

We booked here to celebrate mothers day and for my mother in laws birthday (both on the same day), it's the first time I've been to the River Wyre and I am very impressed by all aspects. The staff were very welcoming, the young waiter who served us was lovely; he had a chat with us, shared a few jokes and was lovely to my 3 young children. The food was wonderful, I had the duck and ate every bit, my 8 year old autistic son even tried and enjoyed it. There was something for everyone on the menu. The staff, upon learning that it was my mother in laws birthday, brought out a little pot of ice cream with a candle in it and they all sang happy birthday to her. We got our puddings to go, and when we went up to the bar to pay, the young man who took our payment was again very lovely and chatty. Every member of staff were wonderful and served us with a smile and couldn't do enough to help, even when the restaurant was full of diners. The manageress was very sweet, she asked if we enjoyed our meals, asked if there was anything else we needed and also avenged for me to have the creme brulee as a takeaway dessert without it being mushed up in the takeaway box. My family will be coming back here again, we all felt very respected and comfortable. There is ample parking and disabled parking available, too. Both the outside and inside are very clean and sanitary, including both the male and female toilets. 10/10, definitely recommend.

Excellent afternoon spent with my friend in the lovely River Wyre pub not to busy which we liked, we were looked after by the Lovely Kaz who was helpful in explaining what was on the menu and informed us of the specials of the day. Its a really lovely place and tasteful decorated throughout along with very warm inviting fire - real one! The food well it was absolutely amazing, I had chicken skewers with chunky chips and a side salad It was beautiful, my friend had the Pate which she loved with a side Onions rings ( all freshly cooked) the thought that went into the food especially the side salad was to die for ( should sell that on a side counter ) in the pub (just a thought I would buy ) the desserts - I had Mango-passion fruit with pink Meringue finished with Fresh Cream 😋👌❤️ my friend had the all fruit crumble with custard- she actually ate it all, I was amazed. She said it was beautiful 😍 Finished with a coffee and a little flapjack like square on the side of the coffee, very well thought through, and a seasonal tone throughout the food we had. What more can I say.... exquisite!! We will definitely return. Thankyou all x Chelle & Linny ❤️

I recently visited The River Wyre Pub and I have to say it was a fantastic experience! The first thing that caught my attention was their hot chocolate, which was absolutely delicious and rich, and definitely one of the best I've ever had. It was the perfect drink for a chilly day and really warmed me up. But the real star of the show was the sticky toffee pudding. I've had my fair share of this classic dessert, but The River Wyre Pub's version was out of this world. The pudding was perfectly moist and the toffee sauce was so decadent and sweet without being too overwhelming. I could have eaten two more servings of it! Apart from the amazing food and drink, the pub itself had a really cozy and inviting atmosphere. The staff were friendly and attentive, and overall the service was excellent. Especially Amber who made the best hot chocolate and the manager Alana. I would highly recommend The River Wyre Pub to anyone looking for a great dining experience. Between the incredible hot chocolate, the mouth-watering sticky toffee pudding, and the welcoming ambiance, it's hard to give this place anything other than a perfect 5 out of 5 stars.

What a difference 2 yrs makes. I reviewed this place 2yrs ago and only rated it two stars. I only gave it two on that review because of the staff who were friendly and helpful. Other than that the food was burnt and the decor dismal. After today's visit I deleted that review as I didn't feel it did them any justice. Went back to try the brunch and what a transformation. They have undergone a huge refurbishment and they have done a fantastic job of it. It's now airy and light with now dingy extractor fans in sight. Huge improvement on the food too I had the small cooked breakfast with mushrooms and beetroot hash browns added as extras .. and I can't pick fault with any of it .. food was served hot and tasted great. Hubby to be was feeling hungry so had the eggs royal and smashed avocado on sourdough toast with poached egg .. he didn't have a bad word to say about his food either. And the staff were as friendly and helpful as ever, glad we gave the place a second chance, loved it. We will be back
