We had a lovely fresh toastie and a delicious bacon barm with excellent coffee (latte and a flat white) - it was all soooooo nice! Lovely friendly and professional staff, from the easy and pleasant ordering experience (from a really delightful new member of staff - gr8 job!!), to top notch/quick service and VERY enjoyable eating :-) We highly recommended this cafe, and would like to thank everyone there for making it such a nice visit. We will definitely be back 👍 x

A friendly welcome and some excellent cakes on offer here; a great spot after a ride on the trails in Gisburn Forest.

An absolute shambles, no organisation at all. After queuing at least 15 mins I asked if there was someone who could give out the zog trail packs separate to having be in the same queue as the food...(cut the queue down quicker ). Then after queuing yet again for food later, only to be asked when I eventually got to coffee machine had i ordered.?? There was a sign put up at waist level to order by ice cream area ( madness ) no one could see this for all...the people ...yes that's right.. queuing . After saying to staff that this was ridiculous, she snapped back at me that they were doing their best and that it was busy because of school holidays....well Yes exactly but the holiday did not just pop up, everyone was aware of it so why could there not be more staff on duty. There was an man serving and rushing round with a Bob hat on....not a good look !, it was not just me that was moaning, just me that had the nerve to say anything. Yes I appreciate that you were doing your best and thank you for that...but if nothing is said the problem cannot be addressed ( hopefully it will ).

Surprised to find the tiny “cash only” notice stuck to the till, after queuing for 15 mins. Scraped together £19(!) for 3 drinks, one (cheap processed) ham children’s and one children’s cheese sandwhich. Had to wait a further 30 mins for two overpriced cold sandwiches. Rather gruff retort from the lady behind the counter who explained they only had two staff on duty that day. Surprisingly unprepared for the first day of half term. The Zog themed trail and footpaths were all great, as was the playground. Just take a picnic.

After a lovely walk in the forest we went to the cafe for a hot drink. It was 3.20 so 40 mins before closing time. My drink was served in a paper cup, I asked for a proper cup and was told it's take away cups now as closing soon yet people served after me had drinks served in a proper cup. No issues with paper cups it's the fact the man serving lied to me!

We stopped at the café after a walk around the forest. I ordered 2 coffees and 2 pannini. We sat outside as we had dogs. The coffees came out quickly. Then a waitress came out to say our pannini would be out in a couple of minutes. 15 minutes later they still were not with us. I ended up having to go in and get them. No credit cards accepted either.

We checked out this café before our walk on Friday January 12th 2018 and saw that the opening times were 10am to 4pm. We spoke to the lady who was in charge but no mention was made of early closing that day. We returned to the café at 3.15pm ready for a cup of tea and a bite to eat only to find it closed. We can only give it a poor rating for this kind of service.

Brilliantly stocked cafe with cracking prices to match, cup of tea for less then £2 how can you argue with that?

Some lovely food and friendly staff. Great place to relax and recover after a bike ride or walk in the forest. Chilli and soup were both excellent. Only negative point is the uncertain opening hours, it seems that every related web page says something different, several are hopelessly out of date. But it seems to be open most days now. Now called Gisburn Forest Hub Cafe, there's bike hire/shop attached (think they are separate businesses but same premises).

We stumbled across the Hub a couple of weeks ago by accident as we were looking for food. The food menu is only small however that is to be expected with the cooking facilities they have. We ordered a bowl of homemade chili and a tuna sandwich, along with homemade cake and coffee! The food is excellent, fresh and wholesome which is just what we were looking for. The atmosphere was lovely and the staff were very chatty and helpful. We will be back!

This cafe has limited cooking facilities and therefore a limited menu, which is to be expected. However I had a long wait for beans on toast and a sandwich. The sandwich I could not finish. No doubt good for tea and cake.

After a couple of times round the blue route on a warm day we were ready for refreshments so were glad the cafe has opened. We both had a ham and cheese toastie on granary bread with side salad. It was one of the best toasties I've ever had, chunky ham, melty cheese and thick, squishy, seedy bread. The side salad was a delight - normally they're a boring bit of lettuce and tomato whereas this beauty included beetroot, celery and seeds. The coffee was drinkable but unfortunately my husband's walnut and date slice and my sponge cake looked great but were dry. The staff were fab. We'll be back for another toastie soon!

We stopped at the Forrest Den cafe while walking our dogs in the Forrest of Bowland - what a lovely place, all brand new, very well laid out - the staff is very friendly and we felt spoilt for choice while browsing the menu! The food was very nice and came with reasonable price tag - 10/10 all the way round! Definitely would recommend to anyone passing by, you won't be disappointed ;)

We stopped here for some lunch after a walk along the tolkien trail. The staff were really lovely and the service was fab. And the sandwiches were very tasty too 😊 Maybe a bit on the pricey side but very enjoyable meal overall!

Walked in after a 4 hour drive today, didn't know the place, never seen it before and just wanted a drink before driving again. The woman at the bar was super unhelpful and scowled at me the whole way through me ordering our drinks, for £16.40 for two pints i would have expected at least friendly service. I get it I was not in suit but does that deserve to be scowled at and made to feel super unwelcome. We finished our drinks and got the hell out of there as quick as we could. Will never return and have already told my wealthier friends and family not to attend this place

A great place we stumbled on after the fireworks at the castle. The reedley hallows beer went down very very well. We had a nibbles selection amazing value at 4 small plates for £20. I had lamb rump for main and my wife had ahicken Kiev which she thoroughly enjoyed. No room for a pud, hopefully next time. Very attentive service, great food and reasonably priced. Will defo return very soon.

We had a pleasant lunch at The Btown Cow. The dining room was pleasant if a little dark, however its an old building so that's OK. Very pleasant young waiter. The menu is quite big and it's very varied, something for everyone. I had vegetarian Toad In The Hole, excellent , well presented and delicious. Husband chose the open beef sandwich, which unfortunately wasn't as good. The baguette was tough and the steak was "not the best". Our coffee at the end of the meal was really just froth!! However, it was clean and comfortable, a very pleasant young waiter and the loos were spotless.

Excellent homely proper pub grub! Portion size is massive. Went with my family 13 of us and we all had a brilliant meal couldn't fault it. Super friendly staff will definitely return. Thank You
