My husband and I had breakfast at the Garden Room a few weeks ago while staying at The Samlesbury gatehouse for a few days. The food was so good and the atmosphere was bright and warm. The best part about the experience was our AWESOME waitress, Rebecca!! Rebecca was incredibly friendly, warm, and made us feel right at home from the moment we walked in. She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Her awesome personality truly made our morning and left a lasting impression!!

A Hidden Gem in Blackburn – Highly Recommended I’ve been visiting the Salmesbury Heritage Café weekly for the past month after my morning walks, and it’s quickly become a favourite spot. The café has a lovely, fresh feel with plenty of greenery and both indoor and outdoor seating options, which makes it a perfect place to relax. The atmosphere is always warm and welcoming, and the staff go above and beyond to make you feel at home. Janet usually serves us, and she’s absolutely wonderful—always greeting us with a smile and making sure we’re well looked after. It’s those little touches that make a big difference. Our go-to is the granola, which we order every time—it’s just that good! We’ve also really enjoyed the fruit teacake and eggs on other visits. Everything is clean, fresh, and beautifully presented. If you’re in the area or passing nearby, I’d definitely recommend stopping by. It’s a hidden gem that’s well worth a visit. Looking forward to our next visit already!

We fancied drink and perhaps afternoon tea at the hall, as it seemed a nice venue. The hall is magnificent, and we went on a very sunny and warm day midweek....The place was empty!!..We came across this venue which looked pleasant and decided to try it...Again there were only two people in, which seemed strange. Shown a seat and told by a lady she will take out order shortly. Looking at the menu it's far from cheap, and we began to wonder if it was value for money. An we waited, and waited, and waited!!!...No one turned up... The place was hardly busy, it it seems no one could be bothered. We got up and left...We cannot comment on the food, which appeared to be very expensive, but the service and attitude leave a lot to be desired. We would not return

Having previously left a fairly negative review I’m so pleased we tried again! The food today was amazing and the service was great! Staff very friendly, there was a young girl who was clearly new but she was friendly and doing a great job! We had two tuna melts - one on sourdough and one focaccia and they were DELICIOUS!!! We had lemon drizzle and a brownie to follow! Both were huge and very nice! Thanks for a lovely day!

My wife and I stopped in for lunch while driving back up the M6. We had a wonderful lunch here. I had the steak and blue pie, and she had the haddock butty hot sandwich. Both were extremely good. The pie was delicious, accompanied by equally excellent chunky chips and veg. The meal was exceptionally good value. The venue is very nice and the staff were helpful and friendly. It is easy to reach from the M6, with free parking and toilets. The Salmesbury Hall next door is stunning and well worth a visit. There was an unfortunate false fire alarm which was a little unpleasant on the ears, but it was dealt with relatively quickly and didn’t affect our enjoyment of the meal.

It's a shame as Samlesbury Hall is beautiful as is the restaurant. We visited as a family of five today and ordered four adult meals and a child meal. The child meal was really more like a toddler meal (half of a very small sandwich - very small bread - with three carrots and three crisps - £6.50!!!!). T The adult meals were okay but again very overpriced. I had the beef brisket on sourdough with sweet potato fries (salad accompaniment was little more than four strands of lettuce and a crushed crisp) and this came to £17. I did wonder why during half term the restaurant was only a third full at lunch time and now I know. The prices are daylight robbery and I can't see how this business will sustain itself in the near future as the prices are exorbitant. My advice to the restaurant would be to offer decent sized portions and a proper salad if advertised. Children's meals should at least be a full sandwich or at least say in your menu detail that it's half a sandwich. Then customers don't feel robbed that they paid £6.50 for this! If you're visiting Samlesbury Hall I would avoid the restaurant (unless you've won the lottery recently) and eat lunch beforehand. Visit Dottie's pantry where the portions are exceptional for the cost and treat yourself to something lovely there.
