The Fence Gate
Review
The Fence Gate is a masterclass in how an award-winning pub should feel and taste. Owner Kevin Berkins, with over six decades in the game, sets the tone: standards high, welcome warmer. Front-of-house team truly glides with confident charm anticipating, not interrupting, while the kitchen, led by one of Lancashire’s most talented chefs, puts provenance first and plates food cooked with pride, style and flair. Expect sparkling technique: sauces with depth, fish that sings and roasts that honour the animal. The cellar is a treasure: a sweeping wine list for every mood, proper real ales pulled clean,and a gin compendium that spans the globe. Prices make sense for the craft on show and portions respect appetite, not excess. Stay over at the Fence Gate Lodge and wake ready to roam Lancashire’s lanes and hop into the North Yorkshire Dales. Service is unflappable, attentive,and genuine. A true culinary experience, bucket-list worthy.
