Heywood Hotel

Heywood Hotel gets plenty of love for its warm, welcoming vibe and friendly service. Reviewers mention a lovely, nicely presented dining room, a bright contemporary renovation, and a cosy open fire that adds to the country pub atmosphere. It’s popular with locals and great for family dinners, with prompt, efficient staff and reasonable prices.

Food highlights come up again and again: standout buffalo wings, Parmy Night on Wednesdays with great topper options, a perfectly cooked eye fillet with huge sides, tasty chicken schnitzel, braised beef and mash, fish and chips, creamy garlic prawns and superb arancini balls. Portions are generous, lunch specials are well priced, and there’s a good variety of drinks with cold beer on tap. High-quality pub grub that keeps people coming back.
