Quick info
About Pine Tree Farm - Dining & Carvery
Pine Tree Farm - Dining & Carvery is a carvery pub on Cutacre Lane in Bolton, decorated in dark wood and built to handle sizable numbers of diners. The carvery is the main draw, with a selection of meats and vegetables, a choice of normal or onion gravy, and condiments on the side, and it's often chosen over the main menu. A chicken Yorkshire pudding is offered as a starter before the roast. On tap, an own-brand IPA sits alongside beers like San Miguel, and festive sorbet has appeared as a dessert option. Staff provide table service, bringing orders to diners rather than calling numbers at a counter, and seating can be moved to accommodate groups on request. The pub takes walk-ins rather than reservations.

Customer Review Summary
The carvery is what most reviewers return for, praised for its selection of meats and vegetables, generous portions, and a choice of normal and onion gravy, with the turkey and Sunday roasts singled out. The own-brand IPA and a pint of San Miguel also get mentions, along with a homely, tidy feel and friendly, accommodating staff. Several reviewers say they have visited many times. The complaints concern the menu dishes rather than the carvery. One reviewer describes two inedible meals within weeks, including a steak they say was around 75% fat, which the manager refunded. Another found the pigs in blankets microwaved until they could not be cut, the Yorkshire wrap tough, and a long delay before ordering because of a discount code problem. Others found a lasagne overdone and dry, and a Christmas cake dry. A server apologised politely over the lasagne, and a group celebrating a 60th birthday mostly ordered the carvery.

“Great place - we called in for tea and a cake. Clean and today place. Great staff who were happy to help with anything, and super friendly (especially Laura and Louise) we would definitely return.”

“Called for meals at lunchtime today good and varied menu all at extremely reasonable prices. Fish & Chips plus lasagne. Whilst the fish meals were fine unfortunately the lasagne was somewhat overdone and a little dry. We were struck however by the excellent and courteous service of the staff and in particular chap named Jeremiah who greeted and tended to our table throughout. He noted our concern regarding the lasagne and apologised politely which was appreciated.”

“Went to bar to order and use BLC discount & told to order from app which was impossible as website appears to block ability to use codes. Went back to bar and very nice lady scanned the code at the bar and took my order (this whole process taking 20 mins before actually being able to order food 🤷♀️) food came, pigs in blankets clearly microwaved to death, could not cut or bite and inedible & yorkie wrap tough and difficult to cut. On finishing waited 20 mins and had to shout a member of staff to remove plates who to be fair was not of a friendly approach, but apart from the odd person a few of the staff were pretty much the same. Today’s experience not as good as normal, not sure what has happened but suggest identifying and rectify asap before losing customers. Really disappointed today 🙄”

“We have visited Pine Tree Farm many times, and every visit has been a great experience. The food has always been lovely, with a wide choice on the menu to suit all tastes. The carvery is particularly good, offering an excellent selection of meats and vegetables, all cooked and presented beautifully. We have also had the pleasure of being served by Louise on our last few visits. She is always friendly, professional, and welcoming, with a lovely smile that makes you feel valued as a customer. Her excellent service has made our visits even more enjoyable. We would highly recommend Pine Tree Farm and look forward to returning again soon.”

“Routinely come here with family as this is our favourite local eatery. Amazing food, The turkey was lovely and the gravy is always top tier. (Better than a toby) The staff were really friendly and nice. And accommodating helping us move seats and as usual the meal was lovely we are always torn between the main menu and the carvery! Will be back again in a couple of weeks!”
