Join us as we raise a glass to this year’s Beaujolais. A special French-inspired set menu (two or three courses) will run alongside our usual à la carte, so you can enjoy as much or as little of the celebration as you like.

To celebrate the longevity of our famous suet pudding, we’re dedicating a night to it. Not just the classic either - we’ll be serving our suet pudding three different ways. To round off the night, we also have live music curtesy of the talented Will Lewis from 7pm.

This week in our Friday Series - Moules Frites are BACK. Choose between the classic à la crème with Cartford cider and fennel, a green curry broth with Thai salad, or a Spanish-inspired version with chorizo, morcilla and green peppers.

This week in our Friday Series - it’s Halloween! And we’re celebrating with a feast that is scarily good: Cartford smash burgers with some seriously dirty fries.

This week in our Friday Series, our BBQ ribs are back - a messy one for anyone who thinks we veer a little too elevated at times. But don’t mistake these for pub grub. They’re slow-braised for the better part of four hours, coaxed into tenderness, and drenched in our signature sticky-sweet BBQ sauce.

Friday 7th November: our tribute to the most famous burger of all time - and we’re serving it with a surf ‘n’ turf twist.

This week in our Friday Series, we’re throwing it right back with one of the earliest Cartford staples – a good old Cartford chippy tea.

Game season is here, and we’ll be marking it the Cartford way. Expect a menu shaped by what’s best and in season, with plenty of depth and flavour on the table. And for the music - Rhy Grooves is making is Cartford debt.

There’s something quietly satisfying about a good steak and a generous helping of chips. It’s a classic for a reason. Adding to the evening, we’ve got John Bailey and Billy Buckley, a jazz duo bringing an easy, thoughtful soundtrack to the night.

Ramen Night – Friday 19th September. We’re bringing a taste of Japan to The Cartford. Bowls of ramen, steaming and full of flavour, will be the centre of the table. To go with it, we have live jazz from John Bailey.

This week in our Friday Series, we’re mixing it up. For the first time, we’re going Scandinavian. Swedish meatballs, The Cartford way.

This week in our Friday Series, we’re going full Indian. Not the takeaway-in-a-foil-container kind – the real deal. We’ve given our South Indian chef, Sai (straight from Hyderabad), free rein in the kitchen.

Join us for our third and final Spanish evening of the year, featuring the incredible flamenco guitarist Samuel Moore and a menu of bold Spanish small plates.

Friday 8th August – ‘Haute’ Dogs are BACK. They went down a storm last time round, so we thought we’d do it again.

Tacos, cocktails, and a soundtrack that keeps things lively. Join us for a night of bold flavours and big tunes.

This Friday, the 4th of July, we’re transporting you to a sun-soaked trattoria on the Italian coast. Of course, there’ll also be live music from 7pm.

No Glasto ticket? No worries. We’re bringing the best of the festival to Lancashire with big flavours, great music, and a laid-back Friday night worth turning up for. The wellies are optional—everything else is taken care of.

It doesn’t get the same fanfare as Mother’s Day. Or Easter. Or Pancake Day, for that matter. But we think Dad’s earned a bit of attention — and we’re happy to provide it.

Steak Frites is a dish we know inside and out (those French roots don’t hurt). Juicy, flavour-packed steak, golden crispy fries, and peppercorn sauce. Simple, classic, and always a proper bit of value. Pair it with a worthy glass—or bottle—of red and settle in for the evening.

Summer is nearly here. And we’re wasting no time in launching our summer menu, packed with flavours that make the most of the season. Take a sneak peak.

This Friday: we’re heading to Japan, with a menu full of bold, balanced flavours and fresh, seasonal ingredients. To top it off, we’ve got live jazz from John Bailey and his ensemble—something a little special for a Friday night.

This Friday: head chef Chris is taking us back to his younger days in Thailand with a menu inspired by the country’s vibrant, aromatic flavours—fresh, fragrant, and beautifully balanced. Expect dishes with bold spices, bright citrus, and plenty of finesse.

Easter Sunday at The Cartford has a certain feel to it. The air smells faintly of blossom and freshly mown lawns, people are defrosting nicely, and the bar starts to fill a little earlier than usual. It’s the unofficial start of the good bit of the year—and we’ve got the menu to match.

This Friday, we’re diving headfirst into the bold, vibrant flavours of Southern India—courtesy of Sai, our Hyderabad-born chef who’s poured his heritage into every dish.

This Friday, the humble hot dog gets the Cartford treatment. Three completely untraditional takes—bold, indulgent, and absolutely not what you’ll find at the funfair. Better still, we have live music from the wonderfully talented Misty Reprise.

Romance isn’t dead, and neither is good taste. Whether you’re after a candlelit dinner, a long lazy lunch, or an afternoon of refined indulgence, we’ve got a few ways to celebrate. But be warned—spaces are disappearing fast.
