The Drop Off Cafe in Rossendale

Not sure if price of beer has skyrocketed but £6.20 for one pints a rip off to be honest don’t think I will be going back in a hurry

What a gem of a cafe. We went here when the Summerseat Garden Centre Cafe’s service was appalling so we left. The staff at the Drop Off Cafe were extremely efficient, friendly and go out of their way to ensure your visit is first glass. I had avocado/poached egg sourdough toast and my friend had tomato soup that was delicious. I would highly recommend a visit as I’ve always had fantastic service

Had a lovely lunch at the Drop Off Cafe this Easter bank holiday weekend. A warm welcome by friendly and attentive staff in this delightfully interesting, quirky and welcoming venue. My homemade tomato soup was delicious as I wanted a light lunch, the chicken dishes the rest of my family had looked very appetising and reported extremely tasty.

A lovely, quaint cafe. Popular with cyclists or friends looking to relax with a hot drink. The staff are so welcoming and you can sit and chat for as long as you want.

Took family to Mother’s Day event, quality & quantity of food was disgraceful. At £40/head they should be embarrassed.

This is my new favourite place to hang out! Dogs welcome and the coffee is lovely!! I have been to their evening events with Live Music, I regularly attend their yoga classes Saturday morning and also sampled their free pizza with a bottle of wine on Fridays. Love this place!!

Fun place, tasty food, Brandon was such a great waiter thank you! Vegan dessert came with a cornetto on top which was funny

A lovely warm space, very friendly. I was on my own and was made to feel very welcome. I will be back as there is so much going on.

This is an absolute gem of a place. The atmosphere, staff, service and food are excellent. Highly recommended place to visit for food.

The place is quirky, the food is delicious! I would highly recommend the salt and pepper chips! They are the best chips I have ever had! The service is only slower when the cafe is really busy which is perfectly understandable. The place is also dog friendly and the 2 collies belonging to the owners are just beyond adorable! I love love their innovative ideas, movie screenings, merchandise. Keep up the great work!

We have always had good things to say about the Drop Off, but I got a bit fed up of trying to work out when it was open. Anyway, decided to give it another chance and thought we were safe when they posted on Facebook on a Wednesday that they were open until 9pm. We went about 5pm and the staff were sitting outside. One of them said they were closed. It’s interesting because I’ve since told two local people we were going to go and both have then said “It’s never open so I don’t bother any more.” Such a wasted opportunity. In these times, people give businesses very few chances. It seems they posted on Facebook thinking it was Thursday. They need to do better if they want support.

Unfortunately we had a bad experience here today. With two children we were waiting over 1 hour for food. Breakfast quality was very poor. Very greasy and the breakfast charge of £11 is a joke to say what you get! (South Manchester prices). I’m not one to leave bad reviews but this place needs to address its service situation fast or unfortunately risk having to close with people going elsewhere. I hope they can pull the situation round. Take this as constructive criticism and look at your weaknesses. Good luck in the future.

Food was very poor, had the breakfast. Burn to a crisp bacon (about half a rasher) under cooked sausages, definitely not an £11 breakfast, unfortunately won’t return. But a nice place and staff are attentive

Went for lunch and it was a bit good and not quite so good. Firstly the good - the salt and pepper chips are amazing. The staff are very pleasant and helpful though the service can be a bit slow. The tandoori chicken naan wasn't quite so great. Whilst thighs tend to be tastier the skin was quite fatty and it wasn't massive on flavour, and my wife only had 2 pieces of chicken. At £10.50 I thought it was a bit overpriced - £9 would have been fairer but I can understand in the current climate. My daughter loved her falafel naan however and said it was very tasty. Overall about 7.5 out of 10. Worth a visit for the chips and the pleasant staff if nothing else.

Went to the drop off yesterday for the first time with my6 year old grandson , a friend and her daughter who had been recommending this bar/restaurant for a while. I certainly wasn’t disappointed, the food and cocktails were amazing, all the staff were brilliant , so friendly and chatty to all of us , the service was speedy and efficient and always delivered with a smile . Can’t fault this place we had a great afternoon and can’t wait to return. Well done all of you and a big thank you. 😀

Just the most chilled atmosphere, friendly staff who get to know you. Food is always good and the music is cool, always see a friendly face and somebody to talk to. It’s like the Edenfield ‘Cheers’ bar! We all have to support these hidden gems of small, local and independent businesses 👍😊

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Food, drinks, service and atmosphere excellent. We are really lucky to have such an individual, independent place to eat and drink.

Eaten here for lunch a few times over the last 12 month and always have a great experience. Plenty of healthy options, plus a few naughty ones and the people (staff and fellow customers) are lovely… really nice family run vibe.

Always love the Drop Off. Great food, great staff, and great vibes! (Especially love the salt & pepper chips!)

If you’re after a cute village cafe with welcoming vibes then this place is for you! I have been to the Drop Off on numerous occasions and have always really enjoyed my time here. Great coffee, delicious homemade food and yummy cakes, all reasonably priced. The staff have always been very welcoming and friendly and it feels like a proper community hub they have there. They also run different weekly/monthly events which are well worth checking out. I also love the quirky, arty decor and can’t wait to visit again very soon!

Six of us celebrated with a family breakfast/brunch for our sons 16th birthday. Friendly and helpful staff. Lovely clean cafe with gorgeous food. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent cafe great value. The Food is unreal. Its my 4th time now here and each time has been fantastic.Best in the area,definitely recommend. Try the homemade beans on sourdough or the Salt and Chilli Chips. The staff are all very friendly and took their...

LOVE this gem of a cafe just outside of Manchester! It’s the perfect place to stop if you’re out cycling or walking, or just come for a delicious weekend brunch. Excellent coffee and the salt + pepper chips are to die for, plus they have...

Delicious coffee and homemade cake in a lovely, friendly environment! Friendly staff, very accommodating with our newborn baby.

Called here for breakfast having been numerous times before and always enjoyed a good service. Ordered breakfast for 2 and the place wasn't overly busy. Coffees came out in first 10 minutes but waited 35 minutes for breakfast order which was wrong when it came....

Massive thank you to Bryn and staff for an a fantastic evening. Four different choices from the menu and four lovely meals. Great friendly staff.

Wonderful place to go. Great feel and excellent front of house service, by Erin. Thank you to the team. Will be back.

We booked the venue at The Provident Society having frequented The Drop Off Cafe on numerous occasions and always enjoyed the food and events they put on. The room is beautiful and very eclectic with a large bar and relaxing atmosphere. Moira and Colin ran...

Sorry Drop Off Cafe, it has literally taken us about 5 or 6 years to write a review for our most favourite place ever!!! I first stopped off here for a brew and a bite to eat about 5 or 6 years ago and I...

Been to drop-off many times, always a fabulous experience. Lovely building and staff. Colin and team are really attentive.the food is all freshly made and fabulous tasting, all very healthy and filling. Big shout out to Reece who served us on this occasion, he managed...

Amazing brunch with my mum. After struggling to decide what to order after seeing other peoples food go past and look amazing! Coffee was amazing, great atmosphere! Service was quick and all staff were very welcoming and kind. The food was fresh and cooked perfectly!...

Just been for a quick lunch with my wife. I ordered some soup and drink , my wife then ordered a bowl of chips a minute or so later whilst she decided what she wanted. My food arrived, my wife’s food still had not arrived...

We visited the cafe and ordered two breakfasts and two coffees. The waiting staff could not get rid of us quick enough and asked us TWICE if they could take our mugs/ if we were having anything else whilst we were still drinking our coffees...

It's a Nice place inside however, it took 10 mins to actually be seen to buy a waiter to be then asked if we needed menu's (bearing in mind they wasn't remotely busy). The gentleman that served us was very polite and enthusiastic , however...

Good menu with lots of options in a relaxing atmosphere. The food is very good as well as the drinks. Staff are most pleasant and it’s dog friendly. A great community facility and worth a visit

great family run cafe with food to rush back for cannot wait to go again, the staff are friendly and you always feel welcome.

Popped in for a coffee with my dad and sister. Lovely/friendly people, nice environment, decor etc and my loaded crumpet was just the job.

Friendly atmosphere and some interesting bits of furniture and decor in this redeveloped building, it would be nice to see a potted history of the place. Good coffee. Food menu looked interesting but not cheap

This place is a gem, food was fantastic and the place was very warm and welcoming. As a vegan I sometimes struggle to get good food but the breakfast as this place was awesome.

We had my wife's birthday do in one of the Drop Offs function rooms, the staff were very friendly and catered for all our needs. The room was warm and full of character, the bar also catered for alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks to suit all. The food is top notch, all in all we could not have asked for anything.Highly recommended Ian and Claire

The staff here are both beautiful and kind, and the food is outstanding. The restaurant is clean and cozy. Food is very reasonably priced, and I love how the menu is constantly changing! Many of the recipes are quite unique. The family who runs this business has clearly worked very, very hard to make the Drop Off what it is today. They deserve all the best!

Brilliant visit & staff make us feel welcome together with freshly made delicious food & drink. Perfect! We'd recommend & always go back.

We visited the Drop Off over the Bank Holiday weekend and ended up astounded at the treatment we received from the Manager/Owner.We called for a drink, a coffee for my wife and a Tea for me, we both drink the same thing in every café we visit, I don't tolerate dairy well so I ordered a coffee and a "Black Tea with no milk and some extra hot water please !" the owner who took the order asked where we was sat and I said outside and he asked my name so the staff can call my name to give us our order, after a few minutes our drinks arrived by a young lad, my wife's coffee was as expected but I had been brought a small bottle of milk and no hot water, so I went inside and pleasantly asked the lad for some hot water, the owner asked me if it was to drink or for the tea ? So I replied it's for the tea, I ordered it off you a few minutes ago, his reply was a shock he said "you didn't order it from me" so I said that I had, and I also asked for no milk and I had a bottle outside that I don't want, he gave no reply to this and gave me a withering look and walked off into the preparation area, I could not believe his unprofessional attitude and rudeness. I went back outside and drank my black tea and my wife drank her coffee, both drinks were fine. I was still annoyed at our treatment so as we got up to leave the milk was stood on the table so I took it inside and gave it to the owner and said, this is the milk that I said I didn't want !His reaction was over the top to say the least, he gave me another look, walked away without a word into the preparation area and started counting very loudly 1-2-3-4-5 he was counting up to TEN to calm himself down !I walked out and was deeply shocked by his attitude, I can honestly say he's the rudest man I have ever met !

Great food great staff they are a cyclist club really but food is fab everyone's welcome and pets are allowed in lower area great place a visit is a must thanks guys Tracy and Wendy.

Visited on a Sunday for breakfast. Had the staked crumpet - black pudding, poached egg and crispy bacon - was gorgeous. Lovely decor with outside seating and plenty of on-street parking. Highly recommended - definitely not a greasy spoon but great venue with fabulous food

After several great experiences, we booked to come on Mother's Day with my family. The food was so poor and not in line with what they usually serve. Most of us had the roast beef and if only we took a photo! - Frozen Yorkshire pudding, gravy was a beef stock cube in water (no flour as thickener and tasted of nothing - literally coloured water), beef seemed like a frozen roll of beef. But the owner assured us that the baby boils and carrots were fresh! For £15 for a main and dessert, I would expect all to be fresh, not just 2 out of 3 vegetables! In addition, my 2 year olds food was a larger portion than what we received. When we complained (in a polite manner, I even explained that we come often and usually love the food), the owner walked off for around 20 minutes. This was after he agreed profusely with me when I said that we would get better in the Toby Carvery and for half the price. When he finally returned, he said there was nothing he could do, did not apologise and was incredibly defensive. When I disagreed and said there is plenty he could do (even an apology and a coffee with the dessert to apologise would have sufficed) he scrunched up the bill in a confrontational manner and said to my brother 'have a nice trip back to Yorkshire' in a patronising manner in a way to say 'don't come back'. As locals, we were disappointed that we weren't respected as regular customers, especially having come on Mother's Day. We had to leave and get a packet of crisps at a nearby bar because the food was so unsubstantial!! This is the first negative review I have ever written on TripAdvisor and as people who support our local businesses, we would only write a review like this if we were incredibly disappointed. Unfortunately, the owner was so incredibly unprofessional and needs to learn to take criticism! How he could justify £15 for that food is beyond me! - Especially when he agreed that the Toby Carvery is much better (and for a fraction of the price!)

Wonderful addition to Edenfield super atmosphere inside, staff very attentive. Good if you like bikes, unusual inside. Food really nice & coffee all presented well. They also have a room to hire for parties. Well recommended as we have been many times as a family. Children babies & dogs all welcome.

Played with a band there and was very happy with the layout,stage,lighting sound and a great crowd ..Great staff and reasonable drinks prices and If I say that it must be.Will definitely be paying a visit on my next journey north...You lot have worked hard on your buisiness and you deserve to do well.

Popped in for breakfast and unusually for use we went meat free and had the veggie breakfast. It was fantastic, the flavours were amazing and will definitely back. Cyclist and dog friendly as well...

American pancakes with hazelnut chocolate, bakewell tart and 2 teas came to £9.10 - not considered expensive by us and they were generous portions of lovely fresh food.

I have been quite a few times as a stop whilst cycling, and it was so good I have taken my girlfriend.

First visit. Lovely and quirky cafe. Really nicely decorated and food well presented and tasty. I will certainly be back.

Absolutely love the food here!! We’ve been visiting here every so often since it opened (my family live in the village) - my Dad was always a mad keen cyclist before he passed away in April & we would always visit here either after his bike ride or on the way back from our family walks. They just go from strength to strength (and the waffles are amazingggg!)

The Drop off cafe has the best cakes around. The Chocolate and Guinness cake is amazing. Really friendly local cafe, cyclists, walkers and dogs all welcome.

This is a great cafe, I think it is based around mountain bikers, with that sort of style on both the interior and exterior. On to the food and staff, the food is great, I loved it. The staff are also welcoming and professional, and also helpful. Comfy design inside and a traditional cobble street outside. Very nice.

Lovely little place just off the main road & I personally think the decor is brilliant. I decided on a fish finger butty & I wasn't disappointed! Great big bap with heaps of filling-perfect! I couldn't finish it all which was the only upsetting part of my visit. Staff welcoming, friendly & attentive.

Superb coffee with great cake and the most innovative bike rack I’ve ever seen. Well worth a visit while on the bike.

Excellent food good atmosphere and always nice to see that dogs are welcome .The food is different and a nice change from traditional fayre

This is a really nice little cafe just off the main road in Edenfield. It opens most days at 10:00 and is popular with walkers and hikers.

What a place!! Hidden away in Edenfield but well worth a visit. Lovely interior, very friendly staff and the menu is great. My friends had the bangin beans which were lovely and I had the egg, beans and chorizo (can’t remember the Spanish name!) it was amazing! Will definitely be back

Welcoming friendly staff as soon as I appear. Latte & cake was delicious. Perfect location just off the main road. I'll definitely be visiting again soon for a treat.

The cafe is set in part of a small row of shops that had been closed for many years. Now completely refurbed. Mainly used by walkers, cyclists and the locals where a cheery welcome is always readily given. The menu is a little different but has some delicious choices, all freshly prepared, service is excellent always relaxed and chatty. No car park but plenty of places to leave the bike with locks provided on request

Been past a few times. Ventured in on a snowy day's walk. Food fab. Interior much bigger than expected. Quirky, great decor. Paid a little more than usual for kids meals for the portions given, however not a crumb was left. We will certainly be back. In fact we tried but it was closed, so check midweek opening times first!

Another great lunch with my friend and the bonus my dog was made welcome with our server offering him a treat. The service is excellent with a good selection for vegetetians.

I love this place. It is quaint, delicious, personal and amazing!

Wednesday, noon, suggested by a local living in the Edenfield village. Seemingly a converted Co-op thick stone built vaulted place. Eclectic mix of tables and chairs, leather sofas and a theme based on the bicycle. The food?
