Inn at the Station in Ribble Valley

We booked specially for the Sunday Roast and we weren’t disappointed! We were given five star treatment and the meal was delicious. We were also tempted by a starter and a pudding to follow, both great. Our experience was so good we went back for lunch on the following day, two hot sandwiches, one with soup, one with chips, perfect combo. The major refurb, helpful friendly staff and value for money means the whole experience fully deserves to be busy all day every day. We look forward to returning!

This place should be busier, the food is superb. We came here for the Pizza Clock deal on a Wednesday evening along with some Cajun fries and onion rings - yummy! Will be back soon :)

6 of us stayed at The Station Hotel as we was attending a Wedding, the location is perfect as the hotel is situated just across the road from the train station and ideal for Clitheroe town centre itself. However, there is no way this hotel deserves a 4 star. The website advised that check in was at Midday which is why we all travelled by train as this gave us enough time to get ready for the Wedding, This was not the case as on arrival we was dismayed to find that the website was incorrect and that check in was actually 2pm and the rooms were not ready but the staff did, reluctantly, allow us access to the rooms to get ready. In general our room was not good, the carpet was very stained and filthy, the showerhead was broke and the handle to the wardrobe came off in your hand, to be honest the room really needs redecorating and going off feedback from our friends the rooms they stayed in wasn't much better. Later in the evening my partner nipped back to the room where the bed had been made and we had been given fresh towels but the room was still littered with dirty cups/glasses and rubbish from the previous guests. He did complain to the bar staff and when we returned the room had been cleaned and we had a small note in the form of an apology and extra biscuits, maybe a small refund would have been more appropriate. When we left the next morning no one was around to voice our opinions. I believe it cost my partner £90 for one nights stay, which is a rip off because as well as a below standard room there was no breakfast included, (for the money we spent Breakfast should have been included) . It is a shame because the hotel is in a such a lovely town in a perfect location and has so much potential. I do not like giving negative feedback but in this instance i feel as though we have not had value for money. Maybe at one point the four stars was deserved but not anymore, the hotel needs to check each room - mend all the broken items as well as change the carpets and redecorate. Hopefully they will take this review as advise rather than being condemned because like I have already said it has so much potential.

From our check in to check out the staff could not have been more helpful. The owners however need to be a lot more attentive. Our first room was large but... The carpet was stained, the wardrobe handle came off in your hand, the very thin towels were like sand paper, the light fitting was broken and looked tatty, the shower holder was broken so you had to hold the shower in your hand and the tea cups were so tiny you could get 3 mouth fulls out of a cup. The delightful staff gave us their own mugs and provided us with fresh milk and extra biscuits. Our 2nd room was tiny (but the same price) . How they get away with calling it a double is questionable. I am 5ft 2 and I hit my head on the sloping ceiling. There were water stains on the bathroom ceiling. Staff gave us a spare hairdryer as soon as we mentioned it was missing. There is no breakfast included in the price and none available on site. Thankfully Clitheroe is not short of lots of fabulous cafes. The general menu was very poor for vegetarian food so we did not eat there at all. And at £8.85 for a glass of wine, we did not drink there either. The owners need to support their fantastic staff make this hotel / pub worth going to.

The rooms are large, or small. The corner room we had was large with a full size bathroom and bath. The middle room we had was small with only a shower, but both priced the same. So if you can, ask for a bigger room. It has its own parking which considering its location in the centre by the station is good. When we asked for extra milk or a hairdryer as it was missing from our room the staff were very helpful and polite, offering extra biscuits while they were in the cupboard! There were a few tea stains on the carpets and a couple of water leak stains on the ceiling in the second room's bathroom. So a bit of a freshening up would be useful. But if you want somewhere that's clean but not pristine, good location and not too fussed about room size it's worth a go. Good staff make up for few shortcomings.

Shocking service from staff Dirty rooms not cleaned at all When complaining the staff had no care At all did not seem bothered and very Rude

Visited the first time since the easing of lockdown. Everything was in place for COVID security. We were warmly welcomed and taken to our table. The seating was comfortable. The wine and beer were reasonably priced. The menu is quite varied but I went for the specials board for a beef Wellington which, although a little pricey, was superb. My wife had the grilled salmon which was excellent;our daughter had the fillet steak skewer which she thoroughly enjoyed. An enjoyable experience which will be repeated before long.

Great food great service back to how it used to be give it a try. Two tables no show how hard is it to ring and cancel ffs !!!

Crap small meals you need to take a micro scope with you to see the portions,its a total rip off,and i will not be going back,glad of the new cafe spice a few doors up king street.

Well I’ve been going on Christmas lunches with the office for at least 20 years and I have to say that today’s was the worst by a long shot. I can’t find anything good to say about the experience. It was late arriving at the table despite pre-ordering (by about 1 hour!!). It was cold, some food was overcooked (think steak as tough as old boots) and some was undercooked (raw sprouts) and the service was awful. There was obviously not enough staff on duty either serving, behind the bar or in the kitchen and there was no apology or explanation forthcoming! Safe to say that is 28 customers who won’t be returning!!

Visited with family. Lovely bar/restaurant. Friendly staff. Good selection of beers and spirits. There is rooms available to stop over but can't comment as not seen them. Plenty of seating available for dinning, we didn't eat but the food that was being served looked delicious. Was very busy as it is the pub as you get off the train so advisable to book a table if you are eating. Will definitely go again and maybe eat next time.

Excellent service and food really like the atmosphere and Friendly staff who go beyond to make sure everything is ok

Had a lovely visit in the sunshine with a few snacks, nice drinks and friendly staff.

Visited with friends. Facing the Train Station is ideal for visiting when you get off or awaiting the train, right in the heart of Clitheroe with everything on its door step. You can stay over rooms are available. Very busy when we called which is a good sign. Plenty of seating available for dinning and if you just want a drink. We didn't eat but the food that was being served looked very tasty. Good choice of drinks and food available.

Well visiter here again tonight, was looking forward to a nice stake, however after being stood at the bat for over 4 mins, and being ignored by the staff behind the bar and manager clearing tables, one member of staff on her mobile the other emptying the dish washer, no communication what's so ever to say they would be woth us inappropriate minute, the put and restaurant was quite. We decided that enough was enough and walked out, of to get a meal somewhere more welcoming. This was our last chance as we came in July 2018 which was poor service, shame to see it's not change. Will not be visiting again

Visited sunday afternoon for a meal. I had noodles with chicken which was OK but my wife had Chicken Caesar salad.The presentation was poor as were the ingredients except for the chicken.The croutons were just toast.Sorry but will not return.

We found the guy who served us very unhelpful. I asked to switch the bread on the sandwich to a brioche bun (that the burgers were served on) and the answer was a straight no. When asked again he said he would have to charge my the full price of a burger (£13 more!). He suggested I was better off with a burger as I would get the "full works". When the burger arrived it was very disappointing, a few fries in a tiny bucket, no salad or coleslaw accompaniment, the red onion marmalade I paid extra for was tasteless and the whole thing just tasted burnt. We are regulars at their sister pub, The White Hart, the food there is excellent and nothing is too much trouble for the staff.

Went for an office Christmas lunch here and had a good time. Liked the food : well prepared and presented (had the veggie options of goats cheese salad and tagliatelle), and the service was good too. The portions weren't too large but that's good thing at this time of year with so much eating going on; quality not quantity seems to be the watchword. Pleasant atmosphere, newly refurbished.

Very disappointed with the jacket potatoes meals, the fillings were good but the potatoes were like plastic, not fresh fluffy potato. It would be my guess they are frozen ones heated up, all 4 of us had to leave them.To be fair the other meals being served look excellent so my advice is stay clear of the jacket potato meals.

This has changed a little since my last visit two years ago.

Fantastic presentation of mussels, just like I enjoyed in France! It was the addition of the finely chopped onions I spotted first. Lovely!!!

We stopped in Clitheroe for an early dinner and popped into the Inn at the Station. The menu had a good selection of ‘pub’ foods and was nicely decorated.

Called in for a drink and a few nibbles on Bank Holiday Monday. Food was great , however the young waitress who served us obviously did not want to be there and the fact that she gave us saucers as side plates spoke volumes!

We nipped in for a quick drink just after opening time and were the only ones in the pub. Didn't eat so cannot comment on the food.

Like most people I always checked the toilets before deciding to eat.

I visited The Station in Clitheroe with my two Daughters and my Granddaughter for a girly lunch and what a brilliant meal we had and we will be back. I would recommend it to anyone

We arrived at 5pm on a Saturday evening, the restaurant was quiet, me and my husband sat at a table and waited 10 minutes, and no one came over to take our drink order, three bar staff stood on mobile phones at the bar, my husband got up and went to the bar to order our drinks, we got a bottle of wine, which was just plonked on the table and waitress walked off, bottle wasn’t even opened for us.

I agree with last review we also visited on Saturday 7th July , Restaurant nearly empty , we would have thought they would be glad of customers . There were five of us ., we sat and eventually order was taken , four of us chose from a menu board on bar , we chose small meals , one ordered chicken told it would be Half hour , then waitress returned , there was no chicken and food we had ordered was for under 12s , this was not displayed on board we ordered, all very disappointed , we chose to leave nobody seemed concerned .

Went in around 8pm on a quiet Saturday. Sat down as there were drink menus on the tables. After a few minutes waiting we got up and ordered drinks at the bar as no one had come over. After sitting down my husband picked up a food menu as the waitress was on her phone at the bar and did not come over to greet us. At £15 for a standard burger the prices are steep and having been ignored since we walked in, we decided not to order anything, finished our drinks and left.

Uncomfortable seats , tables too high chairs too low. Food was poor I would not go back neither would my friends. Poor decor, no feel good factor.

Visited for a nice Saturday afternoon lunch. The food was fabulous, my friend remarked it was the best cheese and onion pie he had ever had!! Quite a compliment. Will definitely go again but was slightly pricey for what is essentially a pub lunch.

I met my friend here for lunch. The place was quite busy. We ordered from the specific lunch menu so I cannot comment on meals in general. We both had warm baguettes, I had steak and she had salmon and dill, both accompanied with a small portion of skinny chips and coleslaw. She said hers was very good. The steak on mine was very good although a bit sparse and the coleslaw was warm. It was ok at £7 but with a tiny bit more attention and maybe a bit of salad on the side it would be perfect. Would go again to try a full meal.

Off the cuff visit with a friend! Pleasant welcome prompt service! Well priced drinks and food and tasty! Would recommend but we ate early on a Friday ! Not sure how it would be later on and when busy! At least give it a go!

We went for dinner today and the food was amazing, we ordered some nibbles and starters to share. They came in good time and the service was great, we kept needing extra time to order due to sorting our 6 month out.

We came across the Inn after being advised to eat across the road at Maxwells, we aren't wine bar fans so opted to eat here instead, so glad we did the food was lovely, well presented, cooked to perfection, reasonably priced, can not praise it enough.

Decided to nip out for lunch! Great lunch menu and a couple of pints of Jennings. We even had a discussion on the music playing (I got it right, Rocky Horror). The food was really good and matched by the service and hospitality.

Three of us booked a table for a meal last Saturday. We all had different starters but the Calamaris was the best. The coating was delicious.

I chose this place to meet as my husband and I had been here in the past since then it has been tastefully redecorated. Unfortunately for me it's lost it's cosy atmosphere. The large sofas have been removed and I had met up with friends a few weeks prior for drinks and could only find high tables to sit at,there were five of us and only four chairs and trying to find a fifth chair to fit round the table was a bit tight. The chairs also very hard.

Saw a post by my daughter in law so decided to give it a try. Not disappointed, recently done up and looks great. Had lunch well presented, great taste and good value. Meals salmon and chicken both with baked potato.

Just had a family lunch at the newly named Station Bar & Grill, decor very nice menu a shade disappointed. 3 of us had the skewer dishes, I had the monkfish skewer with fries, 1 had the beef and the other had the chicken skewer, nice but could have been warmer, they said the rump steak was cooked good and the burger was good, the chicken ceser salad was just alright. Very short staffed but the 2 lads worked very hard.Cheers

We are here one Saturday lunchtime with a group of friends.Service at the bar was slow with only one staff member on who seemed to prioritise locals first!We both had the lunchtime menu steak which consisted of 2 tiny pieces of beef burger type meat,a jacket potato which was dry and over microwaved and chips.The relish that came with it ( supposedly cheese,red onion and marmalade) was tasteless.The pub is OK for a drink but we wouldn't eat there again.

What a difference a new owner makes.

Beautifully decorated very relaxed atmosphere lovely staff. Really enjoyed our visit food worth every penny and a lovely cup of coffee. Made to feel very welcome and not rushed to leave the table . Can either go for a drink or a snack or meal.

Atmosphere fantastic, beautifully decorated, food and service amazing, definitely will be back. Well done New owner Mr Jones, top top chef.

Popped in here during the Mod Festival to get a drink as a family group. I also ordered the egg mayonnaise sandwich on brown. The sandwich was thick crusty bread, with fresh French Fries and a nicely done salad on the side. Generous portion- I really enjoyed it and good value at £6.50.

No welcoming smile from the waitress, stodgy food. And despite it being lunchtime when we were there, it was almost empty. The word is out, I think.

Estado aquí dos veces y las dos veces no me impresionó, la primera vez que personal experimentado en nosotros para sillas dunas acomodar otra familia, pero después de 5 minutos y nos trasladaron a la izquierda de todos modos. Uno de los camareros se levantó recogiendo su nariz y finalmente la comida era sosa y sin sabor y tardaron años venideros. La segunda vez fuimos me sentí el personal era más ocupados hablando sobre mi familia (porque se hace obvio) que trabajando y luego la comida era mala y esta vez sentí que estaba comiendo comida de un niño en lugar de un adulto. No recomiendo este lugar! ! ! ! !

No suelo comer aquí, pero fue tentado por la oferta de sopa y un bocadillo por 5 libras!

Un amable Inn justo enfrente de la estación de tren.

Me apareció en un rápido pinta y no tenían efectivo así pagamos contactless y me cobraron 60 pence porque era menos de 10 libras, ¿por qué es esto así como esta práctica fue hecho desaparecer hace años. No sé de ningún otro sitio en el que cobran de Ribble Valley.

No es una buena elección. Esperamos 45 minutos para la comida mediocre, uno de nosotros tuvo que devolver la comida, otra no comer, una tercera comimos pero me arrepentí. Las comidas no eran baratos, nos esperábamos algo mejor para nuestro dinero. Nosotros no vamos a volver nunca.

Estoy dando un resultado de 5, porque la comida era buena.

Smashing old building which has been well looked after ,my upgraded room was massive ,clean and had everything u would need .good pub downstairs with friendly staff.some areas a little tired but it is 150 years old .car parking is not for the faint hearted ,a little tight to say the least .breakfast was ok apart from undercooked sausages that could not be eaten .ok value and good location .

Nice place staff are brilliant shame about food ordered fish and chips came within 4 minutes, dripping in oil , fish smacked on top of chips which made chips soggy tinned mushy peas tarter sauce was nice tho , went to pay for bill and told her about the grease she said not to pay for the food only the drinks

Me alojé aquí por 4 días y se lo recomiendo a todo el mundo. Completo desayuno incluido, servicio amable, acogedor servicio, las habitaciones son espaciosas y están impecablemente limpias. La única desventaja es wi-fi. En la planta superior que no tienes. Tienes que caminar hacia arriba y abajo de las escaleras o sentarse en el bar (que es fenomenal) pero segundo piso puede recoger de internet wi-fi. No han tenido éxito, pero no lo registré, me dijeron. Aparte de esta altamente recomendado.

Un grupo de nosotros estábamos en la ciudad para un fin de semana de caminatas y decidimos llamar a la Posada para tomar una bebida, mientras decidíamos dónde ir a comer. Un rápido vistazo al menú y cerveza, llevado a preguntar sobre la posibilidad de comer allí. El personal era muy servicial y con un poco de shuffleing alrededor, consiguió asiento todos nosotros 10. La comida era de primera clase (huevos escalfados y abadejo ahumado para mí) y a un precio muy razonable. Altamente recomendado.

Das Essen war durchaus gut und reichhaltig. Mit einer größeren Gruppe ist es ohne Voranmeldung jedoch nicht möglich zusammen zu essen. Da nach Auskunft des Personals lediglich ein Koch alles zubereiten muss.

Nice pub just across the road from the rail & bus station. Mixture of drinkers & diners, friendly staff & decent pub food.

El Inn at the Station es un lugar muy agradable. Un montón de espacio. Asientos al aire libre. Fuimos a almorzar, pero estamos decepcionados, ya que la comida era muy agradable aunque es muy exiguo. Tuvimos sándwiches que eran un precio razonable hasta que ellos llegaron dos rebanadas pequeñas de pan y unas patatas fritas. Debería haber sido dos veces como mucho en la manera de sándwiches. Allí habría sido en cualquier otro sitio de Clitheroe. No pensamos ir a almorzar de nuevo.

Went today with Family and 2 dogs. Made welcome by staff. Dogs ok in most of pub. Had lunch food was good. Nice choice on menu. 3 meals and 4 drinks about £30

Visitamos Clitheroe una tarde, y bajar el tren, parecía ser la elección natural para cruzar la carretera y visitar el Inn en la estación un par de pintas, y algo para comer. No nos decepcionó, es bastante decente, y el personal era amable, y ofrece un buen servicio.

We Had a all day breakfast with toasted bread,a latte&a; pot of tea after doing a spot of shopping in Clitheroe it was a lovely, Lunch reasonably priced,local sourced products foodwise,Great service.

Esta fue una estancia entre semana, de noche. Esto no es lo que se podría pensar de un "habitaciones encima de un pub": se siente como un elegante hotel a pequeña escala, en el que hay un bar en la planta baja. Amplias habitaciones, techos altos y una decoración agradable en todo este edificio de mediados del siglo. Mi habitación (Chester - cada una es el nombre de una histórica ciudad/ciudad de Inglaterra) era muy grande y tenía excelentes instalaciones. A pesar de que daba a la calle y tenía un bar/restaurante de enfrente, el ruido no era un problema. Internet estaba disponible a/de/a través del bar hasta la hora de cierre (entrada lateral después), y un buen desayuno servido en una sección del bar a la mañana siguiente. El personal era bueno, como la cerveza. Clitheroe es agradable y bien situado para viajar por el Norte de Inglaterra, y el hotel está en diagonal en frente de la estación y intercambiador de autobuses.

Just popped in to try as we were feeling a bit 'peckish' Ordered two sandwiches on gluten free bread, best sandwiches i've had in a long time - really tasty. Maybe just make the side order of chips a little better ;)

Tuvimos un almuerzo en un pub aquí antes de un evento en el Festival de jazz. Es un agradable pub con buena cerveza y un personal amable. Mi esposa tenía lo que denomina una ciabatta, pero era simplemente un rollo suave pan que habían sido cocinados en una parrilla. Mi pastel de carne con cerveza contenía setas, que no fue descrito en el menú - BUEN TRABAJO NO soy alérgico. Por lo sabían como una fábrica de torta de carne producida (filo recto y regular sospechosamente cubos de carne) unos chips y bastante secos guisantes blandos, una factura de casi £11 era una broma. ¿Por qué no nos quejamos? Porque tardó tanto tiempo para conseguir la comida que estaban en peligro de ser tarde para el evento. No volvería ni lo recomendaría a nadie.

Es un pub que tiene comida. Eso es su propósito. La comida era bastante caro, generosos y, lo más importante, sabroso. No elegantes, pero eso no es lo que sitios como el Inn existen para purvey. Tuve salchichas y puré con un lado de verduras (que incluía aún más raro) en caso patatas estás interesado.

Llegamos mientras la camarera depositado los menús en la mesa! Un menú por mesa!! Yo no pido de podría haber un segundo menú, después de todo había dos de nosotros, y me dijeron que era sólo un menú por mesa, pero ella se me pase un extra una!! ¿Esto de???

Not a 'regular' here, but was very impressed with the fillets of sea bass, 'crushed mash' etc, plus the opportunity for some Warsteiner!

Very relaxing with a lovely atmosphere. Very nice, helpful staff. I love the haddock omelette and a very nice selection of beers and wines. If you are visiting Clitheroe it's well worth a visit.

We have had another lovely meal at Inn at the station on our latest visit to Clitheroe. Food was great & very good value compared to other eateries close by. Will be going again on our next visit soon.

Good starting point or finishing point to start or end your night out in Clitheroe. There is always a warm welcome from the staff, the beer is always spot on and a good range on the food menu.

Visitamos la posada en la estación el viernes por la noche. Estábamos en un grupo grande pero la cocina protegen bien con nuestros pedidos y nos dieron todos juntos y caliente. Las raciones son generosas y la calidad era insuperable. Lo recomiendo sin duda alguna.

Llamado en la taberna en los consejos de nuestro B&B.; local Era bastante de 5.00 pm en el viernes y el servicio era rápido. El 4 en nuestro grupo todos ordenados artículos diferentes, que llegó rápidamente y fue excelente. Las tartas caseras son muy, muy abundante y muy buena relación calidad-precio.

We often come in after work for a couple of drinks and something to eat. Nice atmosphere, good service and decent food. Also ideal for the railway station.

Just called in for an early drink on Saturday night, what a lovely pub. Friendly staff and great surroundings. Not tried the food yet but we will be back to give it a go.

Pedimos a los laicos en este pub sandwiches y patatas fritas para alrededor de 30 personas y nos proporcionaron una selección muy decente que alimentado todo el mundo muy bien, y era muy sabroso y fresco. Fue un buen nivel de calidad y el personal era muy atento pero no agobiante.

¡Qué placer, una atmósfera amigable e informal bienvenida, un buen servicio y excelente comida en un gran restaurante con paneles de madera dentro de un hotel en la ciudad de Lancashire de Clitheroe. Espléndida hechas en casa sopa de champiñón y entonces mi amigo tenía lento-cocinados cordero, y yo tenía risotto de hongos - grandes porciones (bien demasiado grande, realmente), cuidadosamente preparada y muy sabroso. Todo estaba limpio y impoluto. Un verdadero placer de comer allí, nos sentimos muy bien cuidados.
