My brother Stephen and I stumbled upon this charming pub on a cold, rainy afternoon and it turned out to be a great discovery. The pub, which dates back to 1901 and is housed in a beautiful late Victorian era building, has a fantastic interior with multiple rooms, a traditional serving bar, pub-style decor, TVs and big screens for sports, and plenty of seating options. The staff were very welcoming and friendly when we visited on a Tuesday afternoon. We ordered some pale ales from Thwaites Brewery at the bar and they were served in perfect condition. We enjoyed our drinks by the cozy log fire, taking in the warm atmosphere and savoring the delicious, malty ales with hints of chestnut. It was...
This reminded me a lot of the Brown Cow due to the eclectic vibrancy of the patrons jovially imbibing of a Saturday afternoon. There was a positive bevy of voluptuous vixens sporting all manner of synthetic enhancements along with the obligatory trout pouts. These were regular single mums whose children were playing happily in the pub whilst their mothers were enjoying themselves with Charlie Chav in the corner. Other, just as friendly, locals included Gary from Burnley with the Racing Post and big Bazza, heartily chortling to himself at the bar. The building itself is well appointed and most historic and the beer is good value at around £4.20 a pint. I didn’t get any food as I brought my ow...
I recently visited this pub after it was renovated and have mixed feelings about my experience. The building is lovely and the interior is nicely decorated. However, the TV was on at a very loud volume, showing rugby. I was hoping for a quiet drink after the game ended, but then a group started a 21st birthday celebration with loud music. I don't want to spoil the fun, but sometimes I just want to enjoy a quiet drink and I'm not sure if this place will meet that expectation. I may try again during the week to see if the atmosphere improves, but if not, I don't think we will be returning.
I stopped by with my kids to check out this restaurant nearby and also because we were hungry. We had delicious and affordable burgers. They only had one chicken burger available, so they gave me a double beef burger instead after confirming it was okay with me. The beer was good too. Overall, it's a great place with good value, friendly service, and I would definitely come back when in the area.

This pub is fantastic, with amazing live music! The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming. They are currently undergoing renovations, so I am excited to see the results! They offer delicious pizza that you can even get to go. The food is very fresh and they have a great selection of cask ales. I always have a great time here.
The Bowerham is great for groups because its not very busy, has a large bar and lots of space with plenty of seating. There are a couple of real ales on tap along with the usual alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. There is a large pool table as well as Sports TV.
The take-out menu was affordable, but unfortunately, the food was not noteworthy. I would recommend avoiding the garlic bread as well, as it was a lackluster experience.
No food No atmosphere and poor beer. The old bowling green at the back resembles a Rain forest which tells you about the rest of the pub.
