Coach & Horses Restaurant in Ribble Valley

Great place. Highly recommend. We had the bed, breakfast & 6-course tasting menu package. Room lovely, comfortable and clean, food delicious, booze tasty (micro brewery on site) & staff brilliant. Some small personal touches too that made the stay a little bit extra special. Would go again.

Two night stay. Food, very poor. Accommodation, very comfortable, but the place begun to look a bit tired. Needs some attention. Staff, absolutely brilliant, attentive and very friendly.

We enjoyed a midweek tasting package, and had ended up booking a special night with the meal jointly created with a guest chef from the Shibden Mill inn. The food and service was excellent and complimented by a nice wine list. We stayed overnight in Rose, which was very comfortable and spacious. All in all an excellent one night break and we will go back.

My wife and I dined here last night. Sampling a 9 course tasting menu. Simply divine … A tremendous experience both in terms of food, staff and venue…. We would highly recommend 5*

We were meeting friends for Sunday lunch - roast beef was delicious and plentiful. On site brewery was a bonus - try the lager! Staff were friendly and helpful from helping with luggage for our two night stay to sorting a taxi for our friends. Room (Henry) was spacious, but could have been cleaner - lights, mirror, TV were dusty. Shower excellent with good pressure and lots of nice hot water. I would recommend C & H.

V good pub/hotel in small village on eastern edge of Forest of Bowland - a very underestimated part of Lancashire. Easy parking, helpful staff, large and clean rooms AND dogs welcome in some of them. Breakfast very good, as I expect the rest of the meals are.

We stayed one night upon the recommendation of our son and partner who stayed last year. It was a birthday treat. We stayed in room Henry which was stylish, comfortable and quiet. Although we did not eat in the restaurant at night our breakfast was delicious the next morning. All staff attentive and pleasant. Overall a very enjoyable stay, hopefully to be repeated in the future .

This was our base for two nights while exploring the area of The Forest of Bowland. We enjoyed a comfortable room, good beer (Four Mice microbrewery on the premises), good breakfasts and excellent evening meals. The menu was wide and varied, with no problem each of us choosing something different each evening, all piping hot and flavour packed. We walked a circular 3-4 mile walk around the village and local fields and browsed Skipton and Clitheroe on market days. I have no hesitation in recommending the Coach and Horses.

This was our first time here but it definitely won’t be our last. The staff were very friendly and went over and beyond to meet our needs. We had the midweek tasting menu which we couldn’t fault. Our dog was made very welcome too and if he could rate his stay he would leave a five star review ( he loved his doggy bag that was in the room on arrival). I have absolutely nothing negative to say about this lovely establishment.

Visited for a family Sunday lunch, we opted for the 3 course option as the menu was too tempting. The food did not disappoint and exceeded our expectations, as did the service. Overall, an absolutely fantastic experience and we will certainly be revisiting in the future.

Where do I even begin? My partner and I stayed with family for 2 nights for a wedding and we couldn't have been better looked after. The rooms were gorgeous, clean, modern with an antique charm (the sash window and window seat were a favourite). Breakfast was phenomenal, with everything cooked to perfection. Now dinner. I can safely say I don't think I've had a dinner like that in a long time. My family are a loud one, yet for each course there was a defined silence where we all were absorbed in whatever we had order (I'm sure the other diners were pleased). I have to save a special mention for the creme brulee with rhubarb and crystallised ginger crumble. Crystallised ginger crumble??? Be still my beating heart. My idea of a creme brulee will never be the same. One of the loveliest hotels I've ever stayed at, beautiful rooms, phenomenal food, and the most wonderful people running it. Thank you so much for the extra coffee capsules, the pens, and the late night prosecco, it was so greatly appreciated!!

Easter Sunday lunch at this highly recommended establishment was hotly anticipated. I had already selected lamb, after all, Easter = lamb. How disappointed I was when greeted with the words - we don't have lamb left. I seriously considered leaving at that moment, as after all, how can you run out of lamb on Easter Sunday when it's bookings only? My husband persuaded me to select something else, and I ended up with cod, which although was very enjoyable, it simply wasn't lamb. The food was very good, and the coffee was excellent, however nothing could get me over the missing lamb. Maybe in future for a special menu such as Easter, they could consider pre orders, to avoid disappointment. Would I go again? Probably, if only to have lamb!!

3 nights here. We eat here 2 nights. I may end up posting twice as I posted a review as soon as we returned earlier today. I don’t understand the negative comments I’ve read. For us the food the chef and all the staff struck a perfect balance professional good service and efficiently mixed with a friendly relaxed manner. So they had run out of lamb. That’s life and for us not a warranted criticism. We will be back soon.

We stayed here for one night as a family of 2 adults and one 3 year old in room Mouse. The room was lovely and very comfortable. Our daughter loved the mezzanine floor to sleep on. We all slept well. Whoever had cleaned the room had let the place down as some hairs and dust in bathroom. Breakfast was a disappointment. The waitress was hopeless. Poor coffee. As the food is so good for lunch and dinner we assumed breakfast would be excellent - not the case. Overall a good night stay. It cost us £213

Excellent overnight stay and meals at a delightful coaching inn. All members of staff were super friendly and welcoming and the room was very comfortable. The evening meal was fabulous matched only by the excellent service from the waiting staff. Breakfast the following morning was...

We stayed for two nights and had the most amazing stay. Food was fabulous and the staff really couldn’t do enough. Rooms were lovely (although you have to be comfortable with the toilet situation in some of the bedrooms as this is a little public!). Would definitely stay again

Mid Week Taster package was good value. The room was excellent and the food great. I recommend the wine pairing. Lovely place to stay in a picturesque part of Lancashire.

On a weekend away in our motorhome we were delighted to stumble on the 2 AA rosette Coach and Horses and despite our nomadic lifestyle we never turn down fine dining. After a brisk 15 minute walk in squally wind and rain we arrived to...

I had a lovely two night stay here, meeting up with my brother for the weekend. The staff were excellent and the food and wine were delicious.

We stayed the night as part of a tasting package…very inventive and well-presented food…not one dish was a disappointment. Staff friendly and buzzy pub atmosphere. Highly recommended…chef/owner told us he changes the menu about every 2-3 months…we’ll be back.

Amazing Sunday dinner perfectly topped off by a beautiful French Martini made by Joe, which was equal or better than the one I had in hotel cafe de Paris monte-carlo... perfect 👌

From the moment we walked through the door the service was excellent the pub has the cosy country feel that helps you destress as soon as you are showed to the bar area. We opted for the taster menu at £65 per person and it...

Excellent family taster evening meal and overnight stay. Lovely king size rooms. Will be coming back in the summer to enjoy the quiet surroundings.

We stayed overnight in room Rose. Tasting menu for dinner and breakfast. Room was excellent. Food gorgeous. Superb quality. Everyone was so friendly Chef made me ‘fried bread’with full English breakfast. Magnificent.

Great food - we tried the tasting menu, which was a delight - and stayed over in a fantastic room (Mouse). The staff are friendly, efficient and lovely and the location is beautiful, even in the rain. Breakfast was excellent too! Highly recommended.

Food is fantastique, whether you’re having breakfast or dinner. Very varied menu choice for all courses. The staff is extremly nice, friendly and helpful. Great rooms and lovely decorated.

Top class food, whether you’re having breakfast, dinner or snacks in between. Very varied menu choice for all courses. Superb, friendly service and lovely decor. Far too good to be classified as pub food. Don’t hesitate to give it a try!

This was our third stay at this wonderful hotel. The one word to describe the food, rooms and staff is ‘quality’. We were, once again, made to feel incredibly welcome. The room was very clean, comfortable and equipped with everything needed for a great stay....

Fabulous food and chilled service - felt like we were at an informal dinner party rather than a restaurant - excellent

So pleased we discovered this gem of a place back in summer! Came again for my boyfriends birthday and Mel and her team made us feel so welcome and looked after us so remarkably well. The lazy Sunday overnight booking is wonderful with an amazing...

Amazing place. Wonderful food…we had the taster menu and wine flight. Staff brilliant..would heartily recommend both food and overnight stay in one of the fabulous rooms.

We had a wonderful stay at the Coach and Horses for our anniversary. Dinner was delicious and the staff were friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend a stay here!

Spent a great night away with friends, not for the first or last time. Room was great, service excellent and food fine. Just ignore the room areas given on the website; they are nonsense, fortunately.

We had a lovely time here we stayed in the Mouse Room which was lovely and very quirky with a beautiful en suite with Molten Brown toiletries. Our dinner was very good from the A la carte menu and breakfast was very good too! We...

The coach and horses, have only just began to host weddings, we were the first couple to book falling in love with the 11th century church nearby. We very quickly realised the Coach and Horses offered a beautiful backdrop for our reception but also offered...

We stayed as we were attending a family party at the Village Hall. I booked 3 rooms this was very easy and straightforward. Checking in was seamless. The rooms were beautiful and clean. We had no glasses in our room but i think this was an oversight as there was water in the fridge. I only realised when we got in late at night, so I just used a cup. Rooms were quiet and the bed was large and comfortable. There was a wide choice for breakfast and the staff were obliging and polite. Again checkout was seamless.i would definitely stay again .

I booked the Taster menu over night stay for my partners birthday. We really really enjoyed it. The staff were really accommodating a special Mention to the lady managing on the night she was superb and real dynamo and a credit to the business. Food, the room was gorgeous and the pub had a really relaxing friendly atmosphere . We will be back

We stayed overnight as a present for some very good friends’ birthday , and The Coach and Horses was very good in every respect . The welcome , the ambience , the accommodation , the comfort , the staff , the food and drink , everything was first class , all in a pretty Lancashire village surrounded by lovely Bolton by Bowland countryside .

Wonderful in all respects. The staff were so helpful and friendly. The food was delicious and the accommodation was first class. I would recommend The Coach and Horses without reservation. Thank you for a memorable two night stay.

We chose this restaurant for a quiet, laid back, Sunday lunch, which is exactly what we got. The service was welcoming and efficient.the food was absolutely delightful. A lovely selection of excellently cooked and presented culinary delights.We will definitely be back!

We went to The Coach & Horses for the tasting menu package. Arriving on the Saturday afternoon we were quickly and warmly welcomed and shown to our room where tea and coffee making facilities were accompanied with homemade cookies. The drinks in the bar prior to the meal were excellent - 4 Mice beer from their own micro brewery and a Hendricks G & T with the expected cucumber. The tasting menu was exquisite and paired well with the wine flight. Each course was absolutely delicious. Breakfast the day after included homemade granola and a choice of items ordered the night before to avoid food waste. A lovely night away. Thank you

This was where we had our wedding reception 56 years ago! Obviously it has changed significantly. We stayed for 4 wonderful nights. Everyone was professional but also friendly. The room we were in was warm, well decorated with the bath in the room as was the en suite. The food was excellentl. There was a good breakfast menu including the. usual traditional ‘English’ as well as scrambled egg and smoked salmon and several other exotic choices. The dinner menu was not extensive but interesting and beautifully cooked.

Lovely pub in a fantastic setting. Staff very attentive . We had the Saturday tasting menu which was excellent and good value for money I've taken a star off due to the atmosphere. The bar , which is small, was filled with locals which is brilliant as they are supporting a local business but they where incredibly loud and took over the place. This wouldn't be an issue in summer as there is a lovely garden area but in October it felt very claustrophobic In contrast the dining room was incredibly quiet but what I didn't like was being put on a table in the corner of the restaurant with a wall right in front of me, we just felt out of it. Saying that our accomnmodation (Mouse) was lovely and we will return but I would insist on a better table in the dining room in future

This restaurant/bar is located in a small village some distance from Clitheroe. We visited for Sunday Lunch in October 2023. We had booked in advance and were glad to have done so as it was quite busy. The restaurant is in a historic building but has had some modern refurbishment which makes it light and airy, without losing its charm. We were greeted warmly on arrival and offered a choice of two tables. Food and Drink Menus were brought immediately. We were left to consider the menus and after a short period, our server enquired whether we were ready to order drinks. We were! These were brought promptly and after a further short period, our server returned to take our food order. As one of our party has a gluten allergy, we were pleasantly surprised to find that they cater very well for intolerances. For STARTERS, my companion chose Braised Venison Ragu with pickled mushrooms. They pronounced the meat very tender and tasty, the mushrooms adding an interesting, slightly briny flavour. I chose a Starter of Prawn Cocktail, with lettuce, tomatoes and a Marie Rose sauce with toasted bread. The prawns were very fresh and plentiful, with the salad ingredients providing a complimentary crispness. For our MAINS Courses, my companion chose Roast Beef, with Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes, broccoli and seasonal vegetables. They described it as 'excellent', with the beef so tender that it just melted in the mouth. I chose the Pan Fried Mackerel, with new potatoes, red onion and spinach in a light but creamy sauce. It had a deliciously light and delicate flavour. For DESSERT, my companion chose a Blackberry and white chocolate cheesecake, with blackberry sorbet. They expressed it to be sublime - and not a morsel was left on the plate! I chose a simple vanilla ice cream, which was nonetheless very creamy and satisfying. We had fresh ground coffee to finish what had been a wonderful meal. The service was impeccable throughout. Highly recommended.

Stayed overnight on the Lazy Sunday offering. Lovely room (free upgrade from Blue to Mouse) a pleasant surprise on our 46th Wedding Anniversary. Roast beef was best we have ever tasted, literally melted in the mouth. Even though extremely busy service, staff were very attentive and friendly. Only disappointment was that no cooked breakfast on Monday mornings, which wasn't advertised on the Lazy Sunday offering. Overall very pleasant visit to an excellent establishment.

Excellent service and lovely food as usual. Tranquil atmosphere. Slightly disappointed to have a continental breakfast, which is a change since our last stay, but the breakfast was very good and understandable for them to make the change. Would definitely visit again.

Superb food and wines, excellent service, nicely styled restaurant and bar, lovely room - a perfect experience and great value for money. We’ll be back!

Excellent masterchef style meal. Very good food and good staff in a nice environment. The menu is expensive but worth it. Had perhaps the best sirloin steak I've ever had.
