We visited for lunch. The food was amazing and they catered for gluten free really well. The service, however, was appalling. With the exception of one waitress, who was very friendly and polite, the other waitresses in this establishment are very rude, unwelcoming, sullen and unhelpful, including the barrista behind the counter. None of them appear to be able to get a drink order right and the service was extremely slow. One dark haired, bespeckled waitress was particularly obnoxious and really should have a rethink about whether this type of job, where she has to deal with the public, is too much for her. Very disappointing. We won't be going again because of them, which is a pity as the food was excellent.

Called in for a light lunch on Saturday. The staff were friendly and polite. Unfortunately the food was poor…a surprise, as we had seen positive reviews. It was over priced for what we got too. Wouldn’t eat there again . Will chose one of the other many eateries in future.

We were the first customers for the bottomless brunch and we had a fabulous time! Easy to book, straight to our table and a mixture of cocktails/ spirits/ wines to choose from. The drinks were free flowing and we never had to wait for our next drink. I was a little apprehensive about the food as I’ve been to bottomless brunches before where you get a lot of little dishes. This one you just choose one dish per person. I needn’t have worried. We shared a flatbread pizza and dirty fries and the portion sizes were huge, we had leftovers and they even offered to box it up for us! The food itself was delicious and cooked to perfection. Special shout out to our server, Phillip, who was very attentive, made sure the drinks were flowing and was friendly and chatty throughout! What a guy! We had a great afternoon, value for money, good atmosphere, friendly staff. I have nothing negative to say about this place. We would highly recommend this bottomless brunch and we will be back ☺️

After struggling to find a decent eatery in Clitheroe we came across Maxwell’s Coffee Bar by chance and we were so glad that we did. We both had the full English breakfast and were amazed at the plateful when they arrived. The food was of excellent quality and all the staff were very helpful. It was a while before we wanted to eat anything else afterwards!

The food was served on time and was very nice as usual. I am a regular to Maxwells and can’t praise the staff and food enough. Thankyou for making my daughters day special

It was so good to find a spacious outside area where we could eat and keep our rescue dog nearby. The menu is brilliantly diverse and adventurous, whilst staples are catered for. I had the Full Breakfast and my partner the Eggs Benedict. Both just perfect! What was*not* perfect was the table next to us that had two smokers on it. I long for the day when this is finally banned outright. Would Maxwells really lose many customers if they denied them the ability to smoke outside their doors? And what about the majority who prefer their excellent food to come, unsmoked!?

A mixed experience, front of house was ok, we were offered a table but asked for one by a window and our request was met. It had a reserved notice on it and this was removed as the table was wiped down and cleared. Drinks and food were ordered, eggs Benedict with the sauce on the side and a steak baguette from the specials menu Eggs Benedict arrived with the sauce smothering the eggs, the mistake was admitted, my wife stayed with it rather than wait for another to be prepared. My dish, or rather slate, arrived and looked good. However it lacked any seasoning and the baguette was not crusty as described, rather a cheap, limp supermarket variety. To spice it up I requested English mustard but was served Dijon, no English available. I had already added salt and pepper. There was a check back but by then I had eaten half of it and frankly couldn’t be bothered to feedback. Having read previous reviews I may have made the right decision! Service was good throughout but maybe the kitchen needs training or a refresh, Details make any business and if Maxwell’s wants to up it’s Trip Advisor rating I suggest management make a critical appraisal of it’s operation.

I went very recently after hearing various reviews of the place and unfortunately I couldn’t be more disappointed. Will not be returning and will be recommending people avoid it. At the beginning I went into the toilets and noticed one had evidently got wee all over the seat and floor. To which I politely informed the staff of the issue and I was told it would be sorted immediately. So about an hour or two later after my meal (which I will mention later) I went to wash my hands and noticed the toilet was still disgusting and unusable! The toilets in general aren’t in the best condition but the state of that one was absolutely atrocious. Then on to the meal which was a tandoori chicken, the curry itself was delicious but the 3 onion bahjis were almost black they were so overcooked - inedible. How that was allowed to leave the kitchen I’ll never know. After informing staff of a portion of the meal was inedible we were told it was an accident and it won’t happen again. No offer of a discount or comping the meal and not that I am bothered about the money but it is the principle - a £15 meal for half of it to be burnt? Ridiculous. The waitress we informed was quite clearly unimpressed and didn’t care for our issue. With a rude smug look on her face - not to mention the two blonde ladies who had faces like slapped backsides! Incredibly unwelcoming and unprofessional. Especially considering how polite we were. We didn’t feel accommodated whatsoever, the whole place felt unclean and rushed. The only nice part was the much younger brunette waitress who was very lovely when serving. Overall awful place and awful staff. Never again and I plan to pass this on to family and friends.

Three of us visited Maxwell's for a spot of lunch. The place was busy, but we were shown to our table fairly quickly by a friendly member of staff who took our orders once we'd settled down and perused the menu. I don't eat meat, so there wasn't a massive choice. I opted for the vegan burger. One of my friends ordered a burger, and the other went for scrambled egg on toast with a side order of sausages. It didn't take too long for our meals to arrive, and it looked nicely presented. Unfortunately, it looked better than it tasted; the vegan burger was really dry, the bun was soggy where the caramelised onion was, and it had a really strange taste. I can honestly say that it was probably one of the worst veggie burgers I've ever eaten-and I've been veggie over 40 years! My friend was equally unimpressed with her meat burger, which had been broken up into pieces in order to fit into a giant lettuce leaf. She wasn't keen on the raw onion either. And there was lots of it! All in all, it was disappointing, and I certainly wouldn't recommend ordering burgers. Staff asked us how we'd found the food, and we gave them an honest review. They didn't say much, though.

Our second visit in two weeks, purely as Maxwells has a fabulous vegan menu. We ordered a beetroot falafel salad to share to start, then a chip shop bites and chips and vegan katsu curry for mains. The food was excellent, absolutely loved the chip shop bites, hope they never take these off the menu. Service was brilliant, lovely friendly staff looking after us, there was nothing to complain about, we loved it. Will definitely revisit as I rather fancy the hash browns and nachos next.

Awful attitude of duty Manager. We ordered two identical pasta dishes. One perfect the other dry as a bone. We called over the Manager who could clearly see the difference between the dishes. She said she didn't know what to do, as they couldnt just make the sauce and would have to remake the dish from scratch. She didn't want to return the dish to the kitchen. But in a huff she reluctantly did. 2 minutes later she returned with a dish swimming in sauce. The kitchen had obviously just added lots of cream and diluted the sauce that just now tasted of cream. I explained to the manager that the dish was still terrible and now just tasted of cream. She argued and argued offering no apology or solution. She didn't offer a bill reduction, or anything in way of customer service. In the end I had to refuse to pay for the dish. She just scowelled at us from that point from across the restaurant. Very unprofessional. What a shame, we used to love it here.

The worst customer service I've ever experienced, ordered the pasta with my partner, when they arrived my partners had sauce and mine was dry after speaking to the Manageress she explained it wasn't possible to remedy this, as everything was cooked fresh, after a discussion about the obvious difference with both dishes she reluctantly took the dish away for it to be brought back 2minutes later covered in cream..not the sauce it should have had, when questioned she was rude and offered no other solution the dish sat on the table until we left, after years in the catering trade myself I was appalled that this was acceptable service for what was once a fabulous restaurant, such a shame, we won't be going back until its under new management !

Booked a table for 6 as we regularly dine here. We have noticed the food quality is under performing where chips came out soggy, butterfly chicken was a heavily fried chicken burger that was hard and tough to eat with no flavour. Small portions and having to ask for items that we are normally asked if we wanted when the food comes out. The price does not reflect the quality no more and the menu has changed removing good dishes

Drinks delivered about 5mins later and 10mind after that thr teacake and muffin, should come together however both the teacake and muffin were barely warm, obviously Bern on a plate awaiting being taken to our table for a while. When I caught the attention of a staff member to state that they were cold she touched them and then said I will get you some more straight away. No offer of another hot drink as we had finished them 10 minutes later I wrnt to the counter and cancelled them, I wad told they won't be long, explained that I wanted them with my drink. Again no offer of another drink and no proper apology. Very poor service

As they have few late nights it clearly focuses more on the cafe set up. We turned up around 4pm on a glorious Sunday afternoon and enjoyed the roof top terrace close to the station (handy to see our train pull in). Good choice of drinks. We kept it simple with a draft Moretti and NZ Sauvignon Blanc. Food choice was good and we had a chicken Diane and Chinese chicken kebabs, the latter served on a flatbread with spring onion, chilli and hoisin with fries. Food was OK. Not amazing taste but nice. Good service.

We waited a while at the door to be greeted snd shown to one of the many vacant tables. Staff walked past without making eye contact while we waited which set the tone. Took a while for someone to take our order, and even longer...

Poor quality food, standard service and meh atmosphere Ordered the burger which was okay as far as burgers go but the fries were cheap, deep fried and dirty frozen fries - worse than McDonald’s and when you’re paying £11 for a burger meal you’d expect...

We eat out a lot and there's a few places that are really letting the food industry down lately with their prices being hiked up, not following COVID regulations and just poor quality food... I'm happy to say that's not the case with Maxwells. We...

Excellent service, lovely food, lovely to sit on the roof terrace in the sunshine only drawback was smoking - not nice to be eating when someone is smoking - why can’t the upstairs be non smoking?!

Where do I begin. Firstly, I was really looking forward to this visit after seeing so many lovely pictures on Instagram and every time I had walked passed, it seemed so busy. The service was pretty shocking. We had been sat down at our table...

I had a great time at Maxwells! A friend and I visited when we still weren't allowed to sit indoors (couple of weeks ago) so we sat on the roof terrace and it was fabulous! Fully covered, with heaters for when it got a bit...

It was great to have somewhere with outdoor seating, with overhead cover and some heating to meet up with friends. Extensive menu. I don't think the food is outstanding, however it's reasonably priced and everyone enjoyed what they had. It was a great place for...

Maxwell's was the last place we ate before the October lockdown in Lancashire and the first place we ate after national lockdown in April. Every meal we have at Maxwell's has been delicious but we are fans of the vegetarian breakfast, which we can highly...

Visited Maxwells the night before Lancashire went into Tier 3 lockdown and it was very quiet and I hope people support businesses so they survive so we can revisit when this is all over. The Covid precautions are top notch, you queue outside, track and trace and sanitiser at the front door, staff wear masks or visors. I also saw one waiter giving menus a thorough clean between customers, as we sat at our well spaced table. You feel very safe at Maxwells.We shared nachos and black olives to start, I would have struggled to eat the nachos on my own, as it was a substantial portion so good value for money. The nachos were as good as you get, the cheese was perfectly melted, with a delicious tomato salsa and creamy guacamole, we loved them.I would not normally order a mushroom burger, as I think its a bit of a cop out, but decided to give it a go and hubby ordered Bang Bang penne. The burger was absolutely scrumptious on a soft brioche bun, with plenty pesto and cheese, served with crisp fries and mayo. Hubby loved the spiciness of his pasta dish, it was a good sized portion, in a creamy sriracha sauce, with extra sriracha drizzled over the top.I researched the wine list prior to our visit and found lots of vegan friendly wines, but what a shame they do not label these, would make life so much easier. I chose a bottle of Les Chiens Catalans Blanc, a lovely crisp fruity wine.The vegan menu has a good selection of dishes and I think it is a great move to put clear allergen information labelling on, making it easier to make choices.We will definitely revisit, as we want to try other vegan options, maybe next time missing out on a starter and trying the desserts.

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.
