166-168 Livesey Branch Rd, Blackburn, BB2 4QR, United Kingdom
Why is The Gate Street Bar & Grill good for fans?
Set on Livesey Branch Road, this pub (formerly the Moorgate Arms) sits on a strip commonly used pre-match, and guides note away supporters are welcome at the Moorgate Arms—i.e., the same venue before its rebrand—making it a practical spot for both home and visiting fans. Local press also describe it as popular on matchdays. Inside, the venue lists Sports TV, so early kick-offs and highlights are available before heading to Ewood Park. With food available, it works for a pre- or post-match bite as well.

Had a fantastic meal the cajun chicken pizza was to die for. I struggled to eat all of it, so I took half home for later. My only moan was there was no box for takeaway. But the staff were really helpful and gave me lots of serviettes so it wasn't a problem. The chicken gyro was equally as good. Quality food at really reasonable prices.

Can't recommend this place enough! The food was exceptional (hats off to the chef) and all the staff go above and beyond to provide a great service. Can't wait to come back.

Booked a bottomless brunch for 8 and then later added another 2, put the food order in a few days previous and arrived today and the amazing food was ready as we walked in, excellent service, amazing food and drinks a plenty no silly rules of you wait till everyone is empty. Amazing value for money and I’m sure we will book again in the future. Landlord very friendly chatting to the group barstaff very good all drinks as ordered came as quick as they could make them 10 of us and no one disappointed! Highly recommended

After waiting to order for nearly an 1h we have been told that there will be no food available for us at all. We have been informed that some internet orders that been placed in the meantime had priority over us. Just choose different pub if you want to be respected and treated fairly - very weird customer service policy here…

Good pub for before football matches, food looks good but not tried it. I like real ale so good to see bee blonde on, occasionally this isn't on (midweek) which can be disappointing!

Love the food here, tried more than half of the menu and can't wait to go back and try some more! Pub in general is nice love sitting out in the sun.
