The Strawberry Gardens Pub and Bistro — Restaurant in Borough of Wyre

Service was really poor when I visited on a very busy Saturday lunchtime when there was clearly far too few staff on duty. I sat outside at one of their picnic tables with my pint of ale. At one point, i went to the toilet and when I returned my glass, which had still contained about a third of a pint, was gone. A customer, who was sitting at the other side of my table, told me that the pot man had just taken it away. At the bar i ordered and paid for haddock and chips for lunch and was told it would take about an hour.

The staff seemed friendly and the atmosphere was quiet, there is music but played at a level where you can chat without shouting (which is a nice change). Overall we would recommend visiting and trying it out, we will definitely be...

The place itself was clean and welcoming,and the lady who served us was cheerful and friendly, all in all a great experience and one we shall be...
