Brizola Bar and Grill in Ribble Valley

Lovely place. The service was friendly and a warm welcome. The food was excellent 👌

We booked months ago for group of 10 for my husbands 40th we were able to add people and be seated together. The service was great and the food is tasty reasonably priced and would definitely recommend it.

Booked for a group of 11 and 4 extras who could then also sit with us! Made the booking easy and relaxed. Food was great as was the service!

Very good food and great service.

Tasty food, fresh, but not the cheapest, but the desserts are decidly expensive at £8.95 each. The kids meals (main course only)are £6.95 each although the children's pizza is substantial, yet with children's desserts at £3.95 each it does it a dear meal per child and with multiple children it really mounts up. The downside to the venue is the single toilet for one and all which is upstairs. When we used it, the waste bins were overflowing and with the queue to use the toilet it really spoke volumes about the need for extra toilet facilities and for someone to keep an eye on the state of the one they currently offer.

Absolutely amazing food , eating out as a vegan can be tough . This little gem tho served up 3 outstanding courses , Thank you. 🙌🏾💚

Came across this lovely restaurant by chance yesterday evening. We hadn’t booked but were given a table upstairs. Nice relaxed ambiance & the food was gorgeous. All staff were nice & friendly, especially Marlene, who is a real bonus to the team. We will definitely be back soon. Thank you for the lovely meals.

A fabulous gem of a little restaurant tucked away in a quiet courtyard. Amazing food and service - definitely worth a visit 💕

Excellent Greek restaurant. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful meal here! Such a cute little place, felt very authentic. Staff were brilliant, food took us back to our visit to Santorini :) Very reasonable too!

I just wanted to eat everything that was on the menu, it all sounded delicious. We fell lucky with this place by calling for a reservation and that had had a cancellation so managed to get their table. So happy that we did call. Really nice restaurant. Very tasty food - the lamb shank just falls off the bone! We were seated on a rather stupid table though which was like a table on top of a box so you couldn’t get your feet underneath the table and you had to put them either side of these box. Seems a bit pointless. Just get a normal table.

Visited 30 August 2024. Very friendly atmosphere, polite staff and reasonable cost. Food… 1) The Shank - Lamb Kleftiko Lamb fantastic - sauce poor lacking the Greek traditional touch in flavour.. 2) Prawn Saganaki The dish itself fine, lost touch though with how Saganiki should taste, this recipe should be re-looked and redesigned to give a much more Greek feel, when cooked with Ouzo. Don’t think the dish had any Ouzo and lost with to many 🥫 A good meal but could have been so much more. I visit Greece 10 weeks every year, it is certainly missing that extra Greek Spice / edge. Thanks for the night and good look going forward. Best wishes G

Friendly staff, warm family atmosphere, quick food, very tasty food. Great experience.

Mine, my partners and my friends favourite restaurant in town and I would go as far to say, of all time. We always recommend brizola, and whenever we have family or friends over to visit, we book here. Cannot recommend enough. The food is just 🤤 the staff are so lovely and responsive. It’s the best.

There's something about the food here that dosen't quite convince me... It feels like style over substance!... I've been a few times and every time, the food looks amazing when it arrives at the table but the taste never quite matches the aesthetics... This time I went for the Greek fish and chips... The fish and batter lacked flavour and none of the food was seasoned by the chef, which is usually a mark of quality and standard for this kind of price point so you'll most likely need to season the food yourself... The batter was very hard in places too!... My wife had a Gyro and the chicken was very well done to say the least, like it was all the crispy edges... It's fine having a few small and well done pieces thrown in for texture but not all of it!... Most of the chicken should be substantial in size, tender and juicy!... So again, it felt more like Instagram dishes rather than anything of substance... Don't get me wrong, it's fine and has some delicious parts to the food but there's too many bits that aren't perfect and I've never been blown away yet... They're close but not quite there for me... Eating outside is very frustrating too!... They have a massive parasol outside that has always been up whenever I've been, no matter the weather... This time it was sunny and 18°C degrees but was freezing sat under the parasol in the courtyard... I understand this isn't an easy fix but I'm sure something can be done so that we can enjoy the limited sunshine we have in the UK while dining alfresco!... Having said all that, I'll probably try here again because I feel they have an outstanding meal in them somewhere, i just haven't had it yet... So in summary, the food looks great but taste wise it's just okay and can do better!

Highly recommended. Cosy restaurant in the centre of town. Great menu choice - lunchtime options. Excellent food & service.

Just tried a selection of starters. Excellent 👍👍👍

Late lunch/early tea. Was a great treat Excellent helpful staff . Great menu choice. Value for money Cannot fault anything Well worth a visit

Went for food after booking earlier in the day. What was most noticeable was the genuine friendly greeting from the first lady on entering. Food was excellent, both in terms of quality and value for money, and staff were equally fantastic. Not easy for hospitality at the moment but this fabulous little restaurant is doing everything right.

Delicious food, buzzy brasserie atmosphere, lovely welcome and team. Well laid out bistro that works for couples and groups. Authentic Greek and mediterranean influences. Just SUPERB x

Nice little place, food was good. However the staff didn't seem too sure when I asked if my food was vegan..."er, I think so?" didn't exactly fill me with confidence.. . I had to ask them to check with the chef.

Lovely Greek restaurant in Clitheroe. So lovely to eat Greek food in the UK. Big portions and very tasty. Good value and helpful staff.

A hidden gem in the centre of Clitheroe!

A great place to eat. My wife and I will be back 👍🏻

We've tried previously to eat here on our yearly visits this is the first time we've managed to get a table. Marvellous, really tasty and great value for money. We will definitely return

Great little venue with amazing food

Usually best to book, deffinatly worth a visit, food is excellent with great service

Attended as a family of 6. The food was amazing as always, as was the service. All the girls made the experience great. Thank you all!

Beautiful freshly cooked greek food,portions sizes of main meals and meze starter was large,but good value for money,myself and Husband couldn't eat it all but we enjoyed it very much. Made a perfect end of a holiday break to clitheroe. Will definitely return when in clitheroe again.

Amazing food as usual. Great service and friendly staff. Always happy to help and left feeling stuffed!!!!! Little restaurant tucked away but always worth a visit.

100% would recommend amazing food and service.

What a little gem this is and well worth a visit on a rainy day like today. Lovely staff, amazing food and a great atmosphere. Looking forward to returning to sample some more off the yummy menu!

Been here a few time now. fantastic place, the food is amazing. great Greek red wine

If you've not visited this place you are missing out, the food either Greek or British is fantastic, plentyfull, it's situate in the Swan Court yard with a car park 5mins walk " Lowergate" a charged car park, give it a try, you will be disappointed if you don't and thrilled when you have.

I always phone to book a table, otherwise I could be disappointed in not getting a table. No disappointment today. Jo is a lovely lady, always a smile when greeting us and a little banter throughout our meal. Food was high quality and delicious. Being a cold day I opted for Mousakka, served bubbling hot, just as it should be and stays hot till the end. Thank you to the chefs for excellent greek food. Will be back soon. Xx

The food was excellent. We ate upstairs; comfortable but needed more heating.

Proper Mediterranean food and they're very generous with the portion sizes too. A must visit when in Clitheroe. Reservation is a must.

We had a lovely lunch at Brizola. The staff were lovely, the atmosphere just perfect for a Thursday lunchtime and the food was amazing. The feta and oregano fries were delicious as were the sandwiches we had. We will definitely return.

We had a lovely lunch here. Staff were lovely and the food was amazing. Can't wait to come back and try something different off the menu.

Really lovely service from the team here. We were a large party, and took the ground floor up totally! The food was great, and we didn't have to wait along time, even though there's 10 people ordering Kids food came out first. It's a really nice touch that they have two different kids menu:s 0-4 and 4-11 I'd defo recommend

Fantastic meal food was so tasty and well presented. The service was out of the world. The waitresses were friendly and chatty . Overall great experience highly recommended

I’m begrudgingly writing this review, as once you have been it’s the kind of place you want to be your best kept secret!!😂 From the moment you step through the door you’re met by a young vibrant, enthusiastic (but not over the top) team. The menu is perfectly balanced and not overwhelming. We were lucky enough to be sat downstairs close to the well organised hustle and bustle of the kitchen, the atmosphere was great. Every dish that left the kitchen looked amazing. Just for the record I shared the mushrooms and Calamari for starters and had the Lamb kebabs.. all of which were amazing. Congratulations to all involved in this venture you have delivered an unpretentious friendly dining experience, which leaves you wanting to come back for more. The only downside to the venue is that I don’t live close enough!!

We went for lunch as we have done several times and it was as excellent as ever. I had feta filo rolls to start which were crisp and delicious, my husband had squid rings- he said some of the best he’s had! The mains were prompt & hot and presented by a lovely polite server. I thoroughly enjoyed my ‘Anna’s pizza’ with a side of the crisp slow cooked potatoes which were seasoned to perfection and my husband could not fault the hearty shank! Will 100% be back

Lovely food. Some great flavour combinations

We was in Clitheroe for the evening and hadn’t booked anywhere for an evening meal We decided to make a visit to Brizola Bar and Grill, only to be told that they were busy. However, the kind lady behind the counter found us a free table for an hour. We ordered a Meze starter to share, followed by Chicken and a Bifteki Kebab with a side order of feta and oregano chips….It was delicious. Thank you very much for fitting us in and for the fresh food too… We’ll definitely be back!

Visited Brizola last night with a group of my friends for birthday celebrations. The food was excellent. For starters, we had the squid, sesame halloumi and the flatbread sticks with hummus and tzatziki. All were excellent, freshly made and delicious. For mains we had the lamb shanks with feta fries (which were absolutely gorgeous) and the bifteki pittas from off the grill, which were the star of the show. One of my friends is a vegetarian. They were very pleased with the extensive vegan menu and the options she had to chose from. All of us noted how tasty and full of flavour the food was. The service was excellent. Staff extremely attentive and nothing was too much of an ask. Definitely will be back soon. Thank you :).

Came here with a few friends for a catch up. What an absolutely amazing experience is this little gem of a restaurant, first time trying Greek food & it was so delicious, but fabulously presented. You can tell the love has gone into making the food. Staff are so pleasant and helpful. Will definitely go again, couldn't recommend enough.

Excellent food and customer service again as always! We had the Minted Lamb Kebabs, Metaxa Chicken from the specials board and a portion of Filo Feta Rolls on the side. Generous portion sizes and so tasty. By far my favourite place to eat in town and definitely deserve the 700+ excellent reviews

We were really looking forward to our meal tonight but it was sadly lacking. Positives points Lovely little bistro, friendly and helpful staff, excellent olives, decent coffee and several options for vegans and veggies. What let it down My giant bean stifado was bland, bland, bland. A glorified ratatouille that was served at a temperature marginally lower than molten lava. Even after 15 minutes, I was still burning my mouth. The Greek potatoes were, again bland and overcooked. The more I ate, the more annoyed I got, especially as I was being charged £15 for it. My husbands beef stamna looked amazing but again, was disappointing, especially at £18.50. Maybe it was just an off night but we won't be back.

Came here for our ten year wedding anniversary. It was the nicest Greek food we’ve ever eaten. The staff were fantastic. Said happy anniversary on our way out, we loved it thank you. Set in a lovely little square with Victorian lights by the castle

Lovely friendly staff and lovely food definitely be back 👍

Had a fabulous lunch today . Food was fresh and tasty excellent value for money . A nice chilled atmosphere and the staff are always friendly and helpful. If you follow them on socials they often put up a cheeky offer as well .

1st time here & we loved it from the minute we walked in. Great place. Very friendly staff. Food is amazing. We had halloumi bites to share & prawn saganaki each. They even do a lovely lime & soda. We enjoyed it all. Plenty of choices on the menu & there is a specials board too. Very good value for money. Will definitely recommend to anyone liking greek food.

The best Greek food I've ever had!

Managed to get a last minute booking here for New Years Eve. Excellent food, good atmosphere, friendly service and good value for money. What more can one say? Would certainly recommend 👍

Great place to eat! Pigs in blankets Christmas special were really nice and reasonably priced meal.

We had been recommended to try out his place by a friend & so traveled an hour & it was well worth the journey. We managed to call & get the last table on a Saturday lunch. Service was friendly & every member of staff actually looked like they enjoyed their work…from I’d was absolutely delicious & plenty of it. We will definitely recommend & return.

Booked a Saturday lunch as part of my birthday month celebrations!!! We are regulars here but haven't been for a little while......we were not disappointed. Him Indoors had the mushroom starter from the Specials board then lamb kebabs. I had filo feta rolls (amazing) and "prawns in a basket". You could not ask for better. As usual the service was excellent and Rachel is still the master of all she conveys. We won't leave it as long next time. In fact, roll on Christmas if only for the Specials 😊

Great food, great service. A great experience all round, the food was fresh and tasty and the staff are great.

Our 2 monthly luncheon rendezvous! This is a good venue! Stairs inside a bit challenging perhaps checking during booking might help & handrails both sides! The staff could not have welcomed, served & interacted better! Thanks girls! We shared a bit of flat bread &...

What a fantastic restaurant, the food was superb, the service was excellent, bonus was the music they played brought back memories of our younger years, the 70’s 🤣 even got to talk about Essex where I originally come from. We will definitely return. I would highly recommend this hidden gem. Thank you all 🏆

Excellent food here at the Brizola. Great atmosphere and friendly staff. Very generous portions too. Service was excellent too. Beef Stifado was that night's special. Excellent.

Good quality food with gerenerous portions. Service was friendly, attentive without being intrusive and welcoming. Great value for money, would definitely eat there again when I'm in Clitheroe

Fabulous food and excellent staff. A hidden gem - happily recommend it to all

Me and my fiance used to go here regularly and we absolutely loved it. The food tasted amazing and the staff were always very friendly. We highly recommend eating here.

Another fantastic lunch here again. Well worth traveling from Preston as this place is in my top two best places to eat- my other is the glasshouse. Great service as usual. Lovely staff. Just keeps getting better every time I visit. Just wished I lived...

A fabulous little gem in Clitheroe. The food is always fabulous and the service excellent ⭐️⭐️ Rachel’s food is superb and the service always friendly and attentive

We came here by chance and we’re welcomed by lovely staff, the menu is very varied and they also have vegan food. The food was amazing, very fresh salad, freshly cooked, beautiful falafels, amazing dips and flat bread. Would recommend without hesitation and looking forward...

What a great experience of Greece dining in this lovely restaurant. Accompanying the fabulous gyros was mythos lager what more could one ask for.

This place is a gem, we went today for our anniversary and were not disappointed. We had the lamb shank with feta mash and the beef with spicy rice and finished off with balaclava. Everything tasted divine and the staff were super friendly and helpful.

Amazing!... beautiful venue .. amazing food .. Great service ... what a gem of a place.. food was so tasty... the donuts are to die for !. Can't wait to return

My partner and I tried here for the first time at the weekend. We were lucky to get in at such short notice and the lady gave us a lovely sunny spot in the courtyard. Spoilt for choice with the menu firstly, it all looked...

Wonderful find. Cannot rate highly enough.

We could quite see why this is the number one restaurant in Clitheroe. There's a relaxed and fun sense about it and anywhere that adapts one of its dishes just to provide us with the starter we wanted deserves to score highly. The staff, mainly...

Fabulous lunch at this lovely restaurant in a cute courtyard setting. The souvlaki was amazing, and the staff very friendly. Definitely be back.

I absolutely love this restaurant. The quality of the food is second to none. Menu is fresh, varied and caters to all food types. We started with the halloumi bites, which are heavenly, light deep fried with different sauces drizzled across the top and some flat bread with dips. For mains I had the falafel and halloumi flat bread while my wife chose from the specials board and had sweet chilli chicken. Portions are always spot on and packed full of fresh veg and quality ingredients. My wife's chicken skewers must have had at least 2 chicken breasts worth of meat on them . For dessert we shared a baklava with pistachio ice cream. Probably one of the best desserts I have had in a long time. All washed down with pomegranate San Pellegrino. I 100% recommend this restaurant, it's probably the best restaurant in Clitheroe. Booking advised!!!

Great food, great atmosphere. It's very cramped so may be a problem for wheelchair or pushchairs.

Although busy, they fitted us in at short notice. Lovely courtyard setting. Clearly a slick operation and very friendly staff. And then the food...was wonderful! Greek fish and chips: clearly someone knows how to cook fish. Crispy delicious crumb and meltingly tender fish inside. Ditto...

This place is a gem, we went today for our anniversary and were not disappointed. We had the lamb shank with feta mash and the beef with spicy rice and finished off with balaclava. Everything tasted divine and the staff were super friendly and helpful.

We can thoroughly recommend Brizola. We had seen the reviews and thought we would try it for ourselves. We weren't disappointed. The staff were really friendly and welcoming and the food was really excellent and very competitively priced. The restaurant is very comfortable and tastefully...

Great Greek place loved the food it's a must try.

My brother recommended this restaurant during our stay in Clitheroe. He wasn’t wrong. Excellent service from our servers. We tried the Santorini sunrise cocktail which was excellent not too sweet. The portions were big and the food hot, tasty excellent. We had the Lamb shank,...

Great food, great service and a smashing atmosphere

Wow this restaurant is amazing food beautiful and tasty service 100% brilliant sat outside a bit breezy but did not spoil the lunch will be back soon

Been here a few times, for lunch and dinner. Been as a couple and with a group of friends. Absolutely love it, the food is delicious and plentiful. Staff are lovely, you never feel rushed but always looked after. Probably one of my favourite places...

Food was tasty as usual and we all left fit to burst! Only downside is the layout, it's a tight squeeze and the tiny tables are cluttered with a plant, salt and pepper and cutlery pot. The waiter almost sent everything flying when removing glasses. All adds to the atmosphere though and cant fault the food! Lamb shank and mash is to die for 🩷

Great little place. Food was lovely and so were staff and it made a good end to our afternoon in Clitheroe. I would definitely recommend.

We had a friends night out at Brisola and had such a lovely evening. The food and service were perfect. I especially loved the moussaka, possibly best I’ve had (and Iv’e had many in Greece) the meze was a great sharing start to our meal....

Been countless times and it’s always fantastic

Great dining experience. First class food and service.

Had dinner last night with 2 friends and the food was excellent. It is freshly cooked, tasty and beautifully presented. No wonder they are so busy.

After an enforced period of absence , I decided my long awaited lunch out must be to brizola I once again chose the squid salad. Followed by donuts How delicious. A real must next time too Real value for money. Staff are extremely friendly, efficient...

We sat in the courtyard in the sunshine and enjoyed a delicious lunch. Everything really fresh and I have to be totally honest here the best, yes I know that's quite a claim to make, tsatsiki I have ever tasted. Trust me, if you are wondering where to eat in Clitheroe and you want good value great tasting food look no further than Brizola. The waitress was really helpful and the owner asked if everything was ok. Oh yes it's delicious we replied. Lots of tasty Mediterranean vegetables, freshly baked bread and good coffee. What's not to like? Thank you Brizola, we'll be back

Love the place they manage to get us a table even though we didn't book and the food was delicious only wished they would do draught larger

Another wonderful Greek meal was enjoyed at Brizola! As always, such welcoming and attentive service from the whole team and tasty, beautifully presented food, washed down by a delicious, chilled bottle of wine. We came to Clitheroe from Bolton for a day out, and we...

We ate outside on a glorious Summer's day. The food was sensational and the service second to none. No hesitation in recommending.

What a fabulous night we've just had. The food was amazing as was the service ( I kinda fell in love with the young lady who served us, she was so lovely!) This meal was in honour of my dad whose birthday it is today but sadly isn't with us this year, so thank you Brizola for making it a good memory 🥰😢

Me and my partner and a friend of ours came in for lunch and the food was absolutely amazing and to top it off the staff were lovely they were so kind and accommodating to our friend and her child and I would highly recommend people giving this gem of a restaurant a try, amazing food and service ! Thank you guys
