"First impressions were “wow” this place is cosy, stunning and welcoming, oh how wrong our experience would be! When we were seated we were greeted by a server who kindly took our drinks order, our drinks were brought to the table around minutes after...we ordered, the establishment was about half capacity it’s worth noting! When our drinks arrived the first thing the server said was, before you order we need to tell you what we don’t have, we have no roast beef or pork Sunday lunches left (these were the anyway other than nut roast on the menu) it was only when we sat down!! This was followed by her saying we also have no steak fillets and no steak and ale pie these were pretty much the dishes we had all decided on so had to quickly rethink what we wanted! (They should really tell you this before you order a full round of drinks Incase you would rather go elsewhere for food you want) Anyway…. of us ordered the toad not in the hole , we ordered the food at and that was that…. During this time tables had arrived next to us, ordered and received their food long before we did. We assumed it was due to a table of ordering as to why we were still waiting mins later…… After waiting minutes from ordering, my partner asked one of the waitresses (having been ignored twice before) where our food was, she went to check and lord behold the food arrived. This was where the fun started ……. The food clearly had been sat on the hot plate for sometime slowly cooking more and more, my partner ordered the cheese and onion pie and was simply mush covered with extremely over cooked brown pastry, cremated chips and some slaw thrown on the top. The burger that came was just about warm enough, so wasn’t too bad according to my friend. Now…. The sausage and mash …. What an insult that was, an extremely flat, cremated , airless Yorkshire pudding thrown on the side of the lumpy dry shrivelled pile of mash, dried up green beans and cardamon tasting carrots. Watered down thin tasteless gravy and mushy sausage. Tasteless and bland even with the addition on mustard and salt, Absolutely vile and inedible and at for sausage and a blob of mash was extortion and day light robbery. Safe to say we didn’t stay very long, when the waitress came to ask how the meal was (first and final time) , I basically looked at my plate (still full) and said it wasn’t worth the money and tasted of nothing, she simply said erm ok I’ll tell the kitchen and proceeded to take the food away, no apology or nothing! When the bill came, it came to for meals and drinks. I told the waitress that we were not paying for the sausage and mash and told her to take the bill away and sort it out. The bill returned with of the meals taken off, which we questioned yet again as they were shocking. The bill went away for the second time and returned with both taken off, again no apology and the manager was not seen once. We paid the bill and made a swift exit and will not be returning which is a shame as the building and establishment itself was stunning and homely and warm and cosy! What a poor end to what we assumed was going to be a delicious meal, the wait was ridiculous and I wouldn’t have minded about the time if the place wasn’t half empty and that the food when it arrived was worth the wait! Dissatisfied to say the least."

"We arrived to be told there was no one booked in with our name. Then we were asked if it might be under a wrong name? How would we know. They decided maybe we were under a wrong name so we could go to a table. After waiting an eternity our food finally arrived. Steak heavily coated in salt, steak pie dry and tough, tipsy chicken cold, side salad was just a few leaves looking as though it was a rabbits left overs. Diet Pepsi sent back twice as flat and strange taste to first one. We could have sent the meals back but then would have had to wait another eternity and we were so hungry it was easier to leave it. No one even asked us if we had enjoyed our meal. Dessert order taken after we had to ask, we had waited 35 minutes after being given the dessert menus. We stopped visiting The Grouse due to the last time being of a poor standard but was told it had improved. Shame we listened. Yes we could have sent the meals back, but then we would have waited another eternity. Yes we could have argued the food wasn’t worth it but we understand you need to make a living. You said your chef did his best, maybe he did, but that isn’t helpful, it doesn’t change the poor service and food. In a nut shell, we won’t be back. Two chances were enough. Other people may have had better experiences it’s just a shame that a pub we used to go to a lot has really gone down hill in our eyes."

"It has been a few years since my last visit, and I was delighted to find that on Monday, the dining experience is still of extraordinary quality in this hidden gem of a restaurant. My salmon was a generous portion, perfectly cooked and served in a delicious sauce. My partner had the sirloin steak, accompanied by the largest, freshest king prawns in garlic butter, also cooked to perfection. We were well taken care of by the owner, his staff, and the skilled kitchen team. The lovely open fire added to the ambiance, and the music was an enjoyable eclectic mix. To top it all off, the wine selection was excellent! Thank you for a delightful evening; we will definitely be back again."

"My wife and I visited The Hawthorn for the first time on 20th October to attend a wedding meal in the private dining room. I had the Whitby Crab starter and the Dexter Ribeye steak served rare. The starter was delicious and beautifully presented, and the ribeye steak was really tasty and so tender it melted in my mouth. My wife had the fondue starter and the whole bream, and she loved both. The staff are so professional and friendly, and no request was too much for them. The atmosphere in the restaurant is warm and cozy, which was particularly enjoyed on the rainy evening we visited Haworth! Prices are reasonable, especially considering the quality of the food and the care taken in presenting it. We are already planning our return to The Hawthorn!"

"We came for a family meal on a Sunday evening, my wife had the Sunday beef roast which she describes as absolutely superb she said the cut of meat was one of the best she’s ever had My daughter had a child’s beef dinner and my son had the Burger (it actually came as an adults meal by mistake but they was happy to charge a child’s meal for it as it was their error) The BBQ pulled pork burger was simple the best burger I’ve ever eaten everything was perfect there wasn’t too much stuff in which would of made the burger fall apart the burger buns were solid so it all stayed out and the beef was succulent I can’t give much more praise that the full experience was amazing the lady behind the bar was friendly and helpful and the young lads serving were great as well Unfortunately we was only staying in Oxenhope for a couple nights so we can’t go back soon but we will make sure to get back before the end of the year as it was superb HIGHLY RECOMMENDED"
