THE PLOUGH INN


GALGATE


Inside the pub there are several small rooms - including a games room with pool, games and darts. It is all very traditional - no need for any 'distressed' decorating her, you are really in an old English pub. The only downside is that if you do eat inside, due to the size the tables are quite close together.

The garden is of the Plough is really beautiful.
The owner has spent a lot of time ( and money) landscaping it and there are water features, planters and decorative features everywhere - it is a really lovely place to stop on a summers day for a drink or a meal.

Between Easter and October there is a 12M x 6M marquee that is available for hire for special events - it is also a handy place to eat if the rain starts.

The Plough is very poplular with students as they accept the Purple Card (SU card) and give a discount 10% - from Monday to Thursday this discount is raised to 20% - a great saving.

The Plough also runs a novel 'Privilege Points+'' system.
This is a loyalty club for new and returning customers.
Members receive a bar coded Privilege Points+ key fob, and for every pound that they spend at The Plough they get 5 points. 500 points is worth £5 of gift vouchers to be spent in The Plough - on food or drink, or even given as presents.


THE FOOD

The food at The Plough is not cheap - the main meals range from £8.95 to £14.50 but they are very good and you get a huge portion.

The baguettes (from £5.50 - £6.50) are very good - you get a huge filled baguette with salad and you can add a portion of their fantastic chips for £2.25.

The chips here are a 'must have' - The Plough run a 'Real Chip Campaign' They claim that they serve up over half a ton a week of their home fried chips using Maris Piper potatoes. - and take it from me - they are wonderful - if rather pricy at £2.25 per portion.


DIRECTIONS

The Plough Inn Country Pub & Dining Room is situated on the A6 near junction 33 on the M6. tHERE IS A CAR PARK NEXT TO THE PUB..

Leave the M6 motorway at Junction 33. Travel north on the A6 towards Lancaster City Centre and signposted for Lancaster University. The Plough Inn is ½ mile on the left hand side prior to passing under the railway bridge.

By canal - Just north of Galgate Marina, there is mooring close to The Plough - then it is a 20 yard walk.
