Thatch and Thistle in Rossendale - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Great pub! Staff friendly food hood and beer great. Good value for money. My new local after The White Bear closed in the village. Some great deals on food/drink. Definitely worth the walk out of the village.

WE used to be able to use blue light to get 15% off now we are no longer allowed to do that when we went yesterday 30/07/2024 very dissapointed

Such a lovely afternoon with family and friends. Food was spot on and the service was brilliant. The young lad with glasses behind the bar was a great laugh. Will be coming again.

Would like to thank the team for putting on a fantastic Easter party , kids absolutely loved it , whoever the bunny was did an amazing job, lovely breakfast aswell

Was our first time eating there so we hadn’t a clue how to order food. Nothing explained to us when we got seated. There were glasses on the table when we sat down and not once did it get cleaned. Table was sticky, menus greasy. Glasses were Filthy and came with a cheap shade of Nelson red lipstick……Asked for clean ones and they came with even more lipstick. I had to clean them myself at the help yourselves to cutlery, napkins and everything else station. Food arrived in dribs and drabs by a convoy of expressionless, vacant looking waiting on staff. Never once did we get a check back from any of them. I don’t think we actually saw one again. They’ve not been recruited for personalities that’s for sure. The place is messy, dysfunctional and badly organised. Blokes going the toilet in groups and coming out wiping their noses is a clear sign this venue is being used for drugs. I understand it goes on but this is meant to be a family restaurant so it needs controlling better. I really don’t understand what Greene Kings intention is with this brand but it feels dated and tired. Starters and sides served in cheap red plastic baskets, the whole cycle of helping yourself to cutlery and condiments, the get up and order at the bar….. far too many customers up and down every 5 mins makes it look messier and doesn’t flow well. The good thing about our visit was the exit door behind us and a walk into Barrowford.

Superb customer service 12/10 the staff are so attentive can't fault them atall! Food and drinks were also top notch. Thankyou to the Thatch & Thistle!

Called in for a spot of lunch I had cheese burger as did my husband it was served within 10 minutes of ordering was well presented and hot. Sophie was the waitress that served us was very helpful and had a smile on her face obviously happy in her work place

Been here many times over the years,good food good prices,on my last visit 2 weeks after i got a £100 parking fine on there car park,i took the fine letter down there and they said it would be cancelled,they told me 5 people a day...

Great staff always happy , Jimmy is great and all the regulars are good fun. Cheap food and beer and great company but needs more for children.

Warm and inviting , lots of good deals on food and drinks with great variety and lots of places to sit to watch the football

Terrible service. Apparently if you turn up absolutely steaming and tell the female bar staff she has nice eyes it gets you served before everyone else who were waiting ages before you!!! The male bar staff acknowledged that it had happened but no apology.

Nice sunday lunch beef was lovely, good value 2 for 15 pounds or something. Clean inside and a decent family atmosphere.

Pub was lovely and warm , both had full English breakfast and cappuccinos, everything was just how we like it , no complaints and good value fast and friendly service , would recommend

The food was amazing definitely with the money and the wait was only 10/15 minutes front of house staff are very polite and was happy to help with anything I needed would definitely recommend

We went for lunch on the Tuesday 2 January as the mix it up deal was on. We got our drinks and ordered a jug of water which came with no glasses! We ordered out food to be told they had run out a lot...

Great staff, good atmosphere, good food, extra shout out to Leanne for exceptional customer service.

Went in with my family for dinner. Such lovely staff, excellent service. Didn’t have to wait too long for our food, which was lovely. Will definitely be going again.

really busy , I would recommend booking but we come all the time and its fast service and friendly team

Very busy and you are better booking to guarantee a table but always a lovely friendly atmosphere and dogs are welcome too which is a bonus

Warm and inviting , you get what you pay for the staff are always helpful. The prices are cheap and food comes out fast as is a decent quality especially the burgers.

This place is what is called hit and miss much more miss. Went in had a Sunday lunch the food was terrible. A mess on a plate served quite well but knife and fork ? I asked for salt and pepper the answer somewhere out...

Enjoyed watching a West Ham game here early October, plenty of top quality screens including a large projector one. Great service at the bar and plenty of seating to view. Recommended if you want to catch a game

Friendly staff, clean and honest prices all you need from a pub, will be back. Checked out the menu that looks interesting and will probably try food next time.

Friendly staff, good service, would recommend to family and friends. Checked menu out and would probably eat there in the future.

Firstly I would like to say what a lovely place this is. I came in to have a business meeting with a new potential client. And I was greeted by Leanne who was very bubbly and very friendly to my party of 4. The food was very tasty. And the atmosphere was very chilling. Special thanks to Leanne From a very happy Business man.

Absolutely amazing place to come and chill to eat and drink at the weekend. Leanne behind the bar and on the waitressing side was so funny keeping us laughing throughout the day. Highly recommended

The place is always really busy and atmosphere lively. Food is fast service and if you get the daily deals you get a bargain. Friendly team and football on the big screens.

Staff always rushed off their feet but always smiling and doing their best. More staff would mean less waiting as it’s always busy.

Popped in one evening hungry and thirsty, Good food very tasty decent pint good head definitely go again

Went for a meal with the other half whilst on holiday in the area. It was a Sunday tea time so quiet busy. Ordered 2 roast beef. Very quick service but that's all that was was good. The meal was barely warm, the roast potatoes...

Fast service and friendly team. Food is average you get what you pay for. Nice sports area for the start of the premier league.

Went for Sunday dinner as you can get 2 meals for less than price of 1 elsewhere , kids also got Sunday dinners which were almost same size as adults, we all had turkey , really good value for money , came quickly despite being...

We have lived locally for a few years and have never tried it, it just never looked appealing. We bit the bullet and went in, I wish I never had. The site of bouncers at the door at 5.30 should have given us a taste...

The last 2 times we came here we have booked a table only to find when we have got there, there is no table booked and people sat at the table we have reserved. Yesterday when we booked a table for a large family lunch...

I had booked for 18 people weeks in advance as I know the pub gets busy on a Saturday evening. We attended for my sisters hen do. We wanted to have something to eat before we went out. Everything was fine but as the last...

Came to the dog show and it was really good fun and everyone was really welcoming - I’ll definitely return

It’s never set the world alight this place but on my last visit it was really bad. Daughters birthday who’s veggie and she ended up with garlic bread due to the lack of choice. They missed the steak of the two mixed grills and the...

Thatch and Thistle advertises itself as opening at 9am, yet on multiple non-holiday weekdays recently, they're still completely closed, even by 9:45am. There's no explanation, no change to the advertised opening times anywhere online, and you're merely greeted by some old woman smoking cigarettes and...

The staff went above and beyond to accommodate my wife's special dietary needs nothing was to much trouble .Lovely staff food excellent .we come at least once a month and always get great service

Food is not great, service is average. Also was given a fine for parking notwithstanding the fact I registered at the door. I then tried to pay the parking fine at brittania parking (online) but to be informed there was no outstanding fine. To of...

Take care with the parking, just got a parking fine for parking whilst in the place, they look to have recently introduced a third party enforcement company, they the staff don’t warn you! I have been visiting for years, no more.

The food was not as advertised , awful and not eaten! And The salt and pepper chips were chips with sprinkled powder on them you use for cooking !

Top notch service yet again from these guys. Always love bringing clients here, decent cuppa, hearty breakfast and great staff! It’s always a pleasure!

Went for lunch with my husband. Ordered all day breakfast. Everything was cold. Was awful. Won't be going again.

Kids really enjoyed it , booked again for next week and probably the week after , and Christmas day !

Still going there. Food good. Great service. Friendly staff. I go Wednesdays, quiz night. Jeremy the quizmaster, nice guy. They have cameras on the car park now. Put your reg in when you go in, for 4 hours free parking. Place is clean.

Staff are always happy and attentive and make us feel welcome and our dogs. Food was delicious as always.

The food was just ok , i would not return . Just very plain food . Not big portions , would rather go to a chippy

I came in on Saturday night with a few friends the Pub was clean atmosphere was good until I witnessed a young girl with ginger hair who works there speaking to the young gentle man behind the bar with a lot of disrespect, I was...

Went with three children for tea last night. It took over 45 minutes for some of the food to arrive and longer for one of the Childrens meals. We then made the mistake of ordering desserts. This took well over 40 minutes for one dessert...

Second time I've ordered steak here. Both times ordered medium. Both times over cooked. (Still edible, but somewhat chewy) disappointed 🙁 Would not recommend. One of our orders came out totally wrong too.

I'm a complex on a nearby holiday park and won't be recommending this place to my guests it was a well below Verage so disappointed

Just been in for lunch we were served by Emma - lady with blonde hair She went out of her way to rush out my daughter mac cheese Usually we are waiting upto 20mins for desserts from here but Laura brought over our desserts within...

Decided to go out for dinner on a Wednesday curry night .only no curries available no chicken and nachos. Well that's half the menu gone. Felt sorry for the friendly staff. Apart from that good service.

Had a lovely meal here yesterday, chose the lamb rogan josh curry which had a nice kick to it, the staff were very attentive and friendly, will 100% be back again!

Came in for lunch and had a lovely Tikka on the Curry Deal. Lorna and Sophie were brilliant and attentive.

Terrific steak cooked to perfection, beer tastes wonderful as well. The service was top notch. Very impressive!

Quadzilla burger from here is very good portions are of a good size and reasonable price with great service

Has very good service and is very friendly. Katie helped us with everything we needed even rectifying a drink that came wrong not due to her fault.

Food was good, staff was friendly. The waitress Katie who brought our drinks and food was polite and wasn't hesitant to accommodate us!
