The Hare And Hounds

"Such a cosy family pub, well run, friendly staff, the manager Tony very understanding of my sons difficult food requests. Clean and felt like yourevieved a personal service. We were in the area for a funeral snd popped into H&H reluctantly as didn’t have a good meal there a year ago, the place has definitely turned a corner."

"This used to be an historic pub with a lot of character so at first I was disappointed in going in to find it just a modern chain pub. But I was won over by the friendly relaxed atmosphere and staff, by the well kept real ale (both a choice of traditional British beer which I like, and the modern craft beer kind for people who like that) and the food. The pub is very popular for food in the daytime and the evening and has a nice crowd of all ages, families, couples, friends, older people and younger. I enjoyed meeting my friends Grahame and Steve there for conversation, and later returned for a reception. The pub has a large decked outdoor seating area for better weather, alongside the Leeds Liverpool canal but accessible from the pub and car park, not from the canal towpath directly. Friendly staff, who were very busy when I visited with many diners and people in for drinks."

"I wouldn't even give this place one star if I could. So a table was booked for 15 of us. When we arrived we had a table set up for 10. Good job there was another table by us that we could use. The food came out at all different times. People had finished eating before the final meal had arrived at the table about an hour later. They had to ask us what food was missing even though we had pre booked our meals. I work in catering and its really not hard to put food through on a till and for a chef to read the check and send out the correct meals at the same time or even a few minutes apart. Not 10/15 minute gaps between a few meals. When the food arrived it was lukewarm at best. Most of us ate what we could as we hadn't eaten most of the day and were hungry. Nobody came to the table to clear the rest of our plates and ask us for desserts. One of us ordered off the app and got his dessert. We then asked for ours. Nearly 20 minutes later and nothing. Baring in mind most of the desserts were 2 scoop ice creams. We cancelled the desserts and paid for what we had and left. Save to say we won't be returning. I am also gluten intolerant and since leaving here has made two trips to the toilet as I have obviously not been given a gluten free roast. I have eaten today gluten free cereal and gluten free biscuits. I know for a fact these were gluten free. Which leaves your Sunday roast (or Sunday disappointment). Ours was the only table as well at the time who was waiting for food. I think your chefs (microwave techs) need training"

"First and last time coming here. Absolutely awful experience today. People getting their meal an hour after the rest. One being a child. Wasn't even worth the wait because the food was Luke warm and just about edible. Served a gluten intolerant person a meal with gluten in, he is now ill! I have no idea what went on on that kitchen today but not a lot of cooking did. There wasn't even anyone else eating except us and 1 other table. Desserts were none existent. We cancelled them, paid and left. We will never be back. Feel robbed having paid for that experience. Awful."
