About this Pub
Why it's great for Matchdays
It's a short canal-side walk (about 10 minutes) from Ewood Park and close to Mill Hill (Lancs) railway station, making it a handy pre- and post-match stop. The pub shows live sport (incl. Sky Sports) on big screens, so you can catch early kick-offs or post-game highlights. Weekend opening from 10am helps with lunchtime fixtures. A Pubs Galore review also notes fans using it before a Blackburn Rovers home game, indicating it draws both home and visiting supporters.

Called in here today on our cycle ride from Liverpool to Leeds .. what a lovely friendly pub this was staff and customers .. mugs of tea all round .. too kind ! 👏👏👏
Popped in whilst on a trip over there and it was a pretty impressive visit,with a great selection of beers and real ales all very reasonably priced. There were food and snacks and both the staff and locals were friendly. Ideal for any visiting football supporters as its only a short walk to Ewood Park but definitely worth a trip on its own
Couple of real ales. One Thwaites cask ale, that has been well kept. Good real ale £4 pint. TV showing football.
Absolutely superb pub. The beer is excellent and the locals are friends straight away. No questions just conversation. You can't ask for more in a pub. I will 100% visit the navvy again.
Great little pub, fantastic hosts. Super atmosphere. Really enjoyed our night out here. Thanks guys xx
