Saracen’s chaos

The Saracen’s Head in Halsall had to turn customers away today because they had run out of food.

Following a busy Bank Holiday, plus chaos caused by overly ambitious lunch and night menus, the pub which opened in a blaze of glory last week was today only able to offer a small selection of sandwiches to their disappointed patrons.

Beer remains Old Speckled Hen and Directors but will change “if customers ask”. Do ask.

  1. It’s not going down to well with a lot of people who used to go there. Nice place, shame about the prices

  2. Why have they ripped the heart out of our village pub? This is now just a typical city centre eating house like hundreds of others. We are slowely demolishing our heritage in favour of these outlats. Joyce come back!!!

  3. Are you yokels seriously out of your mind? ~You are obviously tastless hethans who only long for a warm pint and someone to whinge to. The food at The Saracens before it closed down was disguised as food, the paint was peeling off the walls and it was a waste of a fantastic location. It now screams taste, the menu diverse and the family atmosphere is very welcoming. I am a regular diner there and I would raher wait for a table in a busy pub/restaurant (which it is advertised as), than walk straight to a table in a hole that serves pigswill for locals.
