A place to socialise and make new friends.

To help us combat rising costs and enable us to keep our prices as low as possible, it would help us greatly if people would pay in cash. It will also reduce queueing time at the bar … thank you.


Alison & Paul have an establishment that is a real hub of the community, a place Worsthorne can be proud of. Customers travel from far and wide to sample the excellent range of real ales, especially from our local Reedley Hallows Brewery.
The pub is Cask Marque accredited and hosts various Camra social events. We have won the Burnley Area ‘Pub of the Year’ Award from CAMRA for 2013. Voted as Burnley’s Best Bar, December 2014 in Burnley Express, see here, and with our certificate.
A great range of lagers on draught including ‘Peroni’ only adds excellence to this lovely village pub.
Food served at weekends and bank holidays, and by prior arrangement for groups during the week.
Private bookings available for parties, meetings and groups outside of normal opening times, separate rooms are available.
