"We eat here weekly due to how good it is and today we had the fish pie and my partner had the steak burger. The burger was thick and full of taste and the bun fresh. We ordered onion rings and an extra chips too. The batter on the onion rings is so good. They melt in your mouth. So he was very happy with the burger. Now onto the fish pie…it was absolutely amazing! So many chunks of fish and prawns and in a creamy sauce. It is presented so well with mash on top in a pot and I think it maybe have had cheese on top too. There doesn’t look much but there really is and it’s really filling. We washed the meal down with Shiraz and Guinness and it was just lovely. They brought us a jug of water too. I decided to have a pudding and chose the egg custard with panettone. Wow! It was the nicest puddling I’ve ever had. Creamy egg custard and it was like sugared chewy toasted panettone cubes on the top. Just heaven. We retired to the bar which was busy with all kinds of characters and that’s what we like about this place you can wear what you want and feel comfortable. We are boaters so live in jeans/outdoor wear, jumpers and body warmers , but you have people dressed in evening wear, some in high visibility work clothes you name it everyone is dressed comfortable. Friendly staff as always and really attentive to detail so always know when your glass is empty. Only one minus here is that lots of people stand at the bar in the way which can be awkward when trying to get to it to get your own drinks but they are really friendly and polite so move over for you. No animosity here at all. We LOVE it! Thank you."

We visited on a very quiet Thursday lunchtime. The Steak Pie and service were excellent. Good value, good food, good service.

Excellent food. Mum says it was one of the best fish pies she has ever tasted, full of fish. My chicken and hock pie was great, and my dads gammon was spot on

The food was excellent, and the service was friendly. The prices are very reasonable, and the menu is well thought out. The atmosphere is nice and comfortable.

Caution... I was charged £10.15 for a glass of Sauvignon Blanc (at least Zorro wore a mask), and out of six handpumps, only three average beers were available. View menu

Really nice pub. Cosy with a good atmosphere. The food is great (the apple and cinnamon crumble was fab), the service excellent and the mulled wine delicious! We enjoyed it so much we ate here two nights in a row. And we will definitely be back.

A pub that shouldn't claim to offer table service... This is my third visit, and I feel completely invisible. The atmosphere is nice, but don’t expect any table service here. The staff seem disinterested in taking food orders or clearing away plates. You’ll need to go to the bar for everything. View menu

Another amazing meal at a local village pub whose food would grace any good restaurant. Starter: perfectly cooked Mallard with beetroot fennel salad, pine nuts feta. Main: roast Venison haunch {A haunch not a couple of slices} with honey roast carrots, cabbage, hand cut chips and game jus. Absolutely delicious and very generous. As ever, excellent beer kept to the highest standards, great wine by the glass and lovely staff. Already planning the next visit.

What a brilliant night it was at The Hesketh Arms, such a friendly and warm atmosphere. We loved everything, the cask ales and the fabulous 'olde-worlde ' character with the living flame fire, the historic beams, the cosy cubbie-holes so you don 't feel croweded and tonight the music was amazing! Everyone up and dancing to the fabulous 909 band! We went with family and at first wanted a drink and a catch-up so it was great that we could hear hear ourselves talk, then when the night went on we were lucky enough to find a space at a table closer to the lively 'vibe ' and joined in with the dancing. The only thing we missed was the traditional 'Auld-Lang Syne ' sing-a-long but that space was fi...
