Was going to be down on business and noticed that this was a commuity owned pub after the local community raised the cash to keep the last pub in the village opened which is a really cool story. When we arrived on Saturday evening the place was packed which showed the community continued to rally round. This doesn't surprise me as the staff were friendly, service great & the food hit the spot. Good selection of beers too. The rooms are nicely done and the whole package was reasonably priced.

My husband and myself went to give the afternoon lunchoffer that runs on a Thursday and Friday a try and we were not disappointed, it was explained in the menu that the portions were were a bit smaller but we both found them to be more than enough. We couldn’t find fault with any of it, the food, prices and the service by their young staff. We will definitely be returning and recommend people to go.

Went here for a meal last night. The food was absolutely delicious, started with the salt and pepper squid & crispy devilled eggs and chicken cordon bleu for main- all off the specials and a side of halloumi fries. Highly recommend all - everything was delicious! the menu is vast for options and the specials menu had so many tasty sounding dishes I will be returning soon to sample the others! There was also a band on for entertainment which we stayed to watch after the meal who were fantastic! Great atmosphere, great to see the pub busy and popular without being crammed and uncomfortable. Fantastic evening and will 100% be returning!

After visiting Wycoller village we decided to find somewhere for lunch. What a great find. The staff were all very pleasant and welcoming. Due to Covid19, there were sanitisers to be used on entry. The tables were very clean and well spaced out. The bar area was very well screened and a one way system was in place.It was difficult to decide what to have to eat off the menu as everything sounded very appetising and most was different to anywhere else we'd visited. As it was a Sunday, I decided on the traditional Sunday lunch and my partner, being a fussy veggie, decided on the veggie curry. Both meals were served very quickly and were very nice.We were very glad we found this pub and will definitely visit again if we are in the area.

Really enjoyed our meals at the Trawden Arms, we went twice once midweek and once for Sunday Lunch. Both were great meals, very well presented by excellent staff. My midweek meal was the Cheese and Onion Pie, my wife had the Scampi both meals were excellent and certainly left no room for afters! On Sunday we had the Sunday Lunch, we both had the lamb another excellent choice. The Trawden Arms is an excellent place employing great staff serving great food on warm plates, cold plates are my pet hate. They also have some great beers. When you go you will not be disappointed. One tiny area that could be improved, serve the gravy in a gravy boat! We will certainly be returning.

My scallop starter was excellent as was the beer and service. Nothing wrong with my huge main course of kidneys but I wasn't as impressed as with the starter - and had no room to try the sweet course! Three stars is perhaps a little harsh and maybe should be 4, but I'm afraid not the 5 some others have given the pub.

Food prices here aren’t the cheapest, but the choice and quality is good, as is the portion size. However, a couple of our dishes had perhaps been on the warming plate a little too long (sauce had developed a skin / curled water cress garnish).Service is friendly, from the pretty young waitresses, and there’s plenty of seating. A welcoming pub, with real fires and a small car park.

We had an overnight stay in the Old Joinery whilst visiting relatives and four of us had an evening meal and breakfast in the pub. Our room was fabulous and had been decorated beautifully, the style was rustic to enhance such a lovely old building. Exposed brick walls and a superb wet room all added to the experience. Our evening meal was very good and all four of enjoyed what we ordered. Two of us had burgers which were excellent and the other two had a chicken dish from the specials menu that again was excellent. We had a hearty full English breakfast in the morning but there were also a good number of alternative choices. The staff were all really friendly and couldn't do enough for us. We will be returning for another meal soon! The pub is also dog friendly.

Breakfast is included in the room price which is very reasonable. The breakfast is very tasty and high quality.

The Trawden Arms came to our rescue as our group of four cyclists thought we had booked into The Alma Inn up the road, but we hadn’t. They put us up for the night at short notice and we were very impressed with the quality of the accommodation and the breakfast.

Great food with a thoughtful mix of standard dishes plus a wide range of different and specialty options.... All very nicely presented and freshly cooked.

Tonight it was fairly quiet but the food was on a different level to anything else locally. Everything on the specials and nibbles menu we had was exquisite. There were also a few vegan options, which are usually non existent in this neck of the woods. A friendly welcome, a warm fire, good wine and well priced but excellent food. We'll be back. :)

After enjoying a 3 hour walk with my family around wycoller we was looking forward to a nice cold cider and a light bite to eat. As we live pretty local (fence) so we knew of the trawden arms. When we entered the barman looked at us like we were something he had stepped in. My husband and son sat down and I approached the bar and I asked if I could order some food. I was told abruptly we aren’t serving food I replied oh ok not even sandwich’s. He then shouted over the pub to my husband ‘we aren’t serving food and you can’t sit there’ even though the board outside clearly said ‘food served’ and there wasn’t any reserved sign on the table. The manager then said to the barman ‘we are’ to which he replied ‘you told me to say we wasn’t’ my husband and son said let’s leave. as we was walking out she told me we could sit outside and as long as we paid for it she would bring the food outside and that the man was new behind the bar. We will not be returning rude staff and unpleasant atmosphere,

I attended the Trawden Arms on the occasion of their Burns Night celebrations on 26th. January and was more than pleased with the food, hospitality and comfort of this 'Little Gem ' .Having booked accommodation in one of their newly built bedrooms I was impressed with the attention to detail and comfort whilst retaining a little of the historical past of the old joinery. The evening was a mix of warmth of welcome, traditional entertainment a well presented dinner, good local company and a nothing was too much trouble attitude from each member of the staff. Breakfast the following morning served beside the log burner completed the stay in fine style. My wife and I look forward to our next trip to Trawden and to our next stay in the Old Joinery.

The food here won’t win any awards for presentation, (it’s a bit like you’d serve at home / our vegetables came in what looked like the lid of a casserole dish), nor the waiting staff for being available / knowing the menu details eg what the soup of the day is.

Three nights in a very spacious, comfortable, beautifully-designed room with decorative detail in tune with its industrial past, very warm and welcoming during wet and cool December days. The stylish pub/restaurant itself is one of the nicest we’ve encountered. The tasty breakfasts were more than adequate, the lunch and dinner menus nicely varied. All credit to the owners and staff who were very welcoming, cheerful and helpful. When next we are in the Colne area visiting friends, we’ll be booking in to the Trawden Arms without any hesitation.

i went to the trawden arms with my mother as she had been recommended this venue. we called at lunchtime on Saturday and requested food menu. the pub was very quiet as only one other table inside was occupied. we struggled a little with the menu as we were really looking for a sandwich or light snack as opposed to full meal and found our choice a bit limited and on the whole a little expensive for lunch. on asking the waitress if sandwiches were available we were advised only the food on the menu was offered so we chose the garlic mushrooms with warm ciabatta starter and when it arrived was well presented and a good size for what was usually a starter. although the sauce on the mushrooms was creamy and delicious I couldn't really taste much garlic therein and the ciabatta strips were excellent so I did enjoy the dish. overall but due to the limited choice available would be more likely to visit our usual local pub/restaurant in a nearby village which offers more of a varied mixture of excellent food and never lets us down

The pub was busy, warm and had a good atmosphere. We booked a table for 5 of us 3 of us had chicken curry which was tasty but they forgot the poppadom. We had to ask for them and when they served they were extremely greasy - having just been deep fried. We had to get extra serviettes to wipe the grease off. The waiting on staff seemed a little stretched but were friendly. My friend enjoyed her burger but ordered some onion rings as an extra but she left them as they were too doughy. Another or our party had the Thai Raman which looked amazing and she loved it! The Chenin wine was lovely. We got the bill and extra drinks had been added so we took those off the total. Overall there is room for improvement but has strong potential. Sorry about the pic I was hungry and started eating before I took a picture!

A last minute decision to go out for lunch brought us to the Trawden Arms. Having recently moved into the area we had been eying the place up for a few months!

Some of the best food I’ve tasted in a long time. As a chef it’s not easy to not criticise food from somewhere you have never eaten before. But this place has one of the finest menus I have come across! I suggest to any one and everyone to book and eat your heart out in the warm comfortable environment!

From the moment we stepped over the door, warm, friendly staff. We were lucky to arrive on a Monday evening when there was a 20% off food and drinks.

We live in the village and visit regulary. Monday is a good day as 20 % off ! Friendly atmosphere and accommodating for dogs and young children. Food is good and there's always a choice of specials.

I regularly visit the Trawden Arms and never let down by the friendly efficient service and the fantastic food. Decor is lovely and the place in bright, airy and clean.Menu is great - lots of choice! The garlic mushroom starter is a must! Lovely Sunday roasts and theme nights too. Often take friends and visitors there. Also welcomes walkers and dogs.The only thing missing is a beer garden rather than tables on the road side but I guess where it is located there isn't much of a choice? Would just be nice to sit outdoors in summer not next to the road side.Looking forward to the beer festival in a few weeks time!

Came here with my fella on the night of Saturday (01/04) it was brilliant! A good choice on the menu, lovely people who served us and a nice little room all made it extra special. I had garlic mushrooms to start - they were heavenly! And then the cod special! I was not disappointed, there were so many perfectly put together flavours on my plate (still dreaming about it now) everything perfectly cooked! Then i got chocolate orange torte for dessert and that was yum too! My fella equally enjoyed his, and I would love to return!

My friend & I visited on Mon 20/3/17 in view of good reports.Very annoyed to find the hostelery was closed even though the website distinctly said Mon opening hours 12-11.30.i suggest it would be advisable to amend the website.

Three of us called for lunch. The place was fairly quiet but not empty. There was a warm welcome from the landlady and a warm fire in the hearth. We sampled the monkfish tails with prawn starter and the soup- tasty and well presented. We followed these with the duck in hoisin sauce, the chicken wrapped in Parma ham and the plate pie with chips. They were accompanied by a generous selection of well cooked vegetables. We were very impressed and will be back!

We stumbled across the Trawden Arms at lunchtime yesterday. It was empty and we feared the worst, but it could not have been better. The manageress was smashing, just the kind of cheerful person every pub needs, there was an open fire and the food was amazingly good. There is not a lot of choice for vegetarians (maybe they could put a couple more dishes on) so I had a goats' cheese tartlet with caramelised onions from the starters list, and some chips. It was really tasty. My husband had a roast lamb sandwich and was delighted - toasted artisan bread with several juicy generous slices of lamb, and mint sauce. As another reviewer says, there is 20 per cent off on Mondays so the bill with a sparkling water and a half of lager was a mere £17. Great value even without the discount. We were assured that it is much busier at other times, and I can well believe it.

We dined here for Sunday lunch and were really impressed by the quality of the food. The pub could do with an exterior facelift but the interior is bright and airy. The staff are attentive and friendly.We both had roast lamb which were nice thick slices and the veg was both imaginative and plentiful

Visited here on a Friday night, early on. Waitress didn't have a clue what beers or soft drinks they sold and had to return to the bar twice to find out. Starters were ok, nothing special, but as soon as we had our plates removed then the main course was brought out with no time to let the starters settle. I had ordered a burger and asked for it well done - would hate to see how pink it was if I hadn't asked for it to be cooked that way - it was vile, really cheap, and after one mouthful that was enough. The other mains were average but the veg that came with them was very overcooked and just thrown into a dish for all to share. Three of us ordered desserts and two had to be sent back as they were cold.No-one came to check if we wanted additional drinks during our meal. Very poor

My sister recommended the Trawden Arms to us and so we booked a table for 10. The decor is lovely and with ample parking, a restaurant and bar area it's a gem of a place. The food was excellent, and very reasonably priced. The waitress was super efficient and all our meals came out together with regular checks to see if we needed drinks. I'm so glad we found this place and like my sister, will be recommending it to everyone.

Not eaten here before, but met some friends from Colne and it was well worth the short journey out of the town.Pleasant, attentive service from the start in a modern, clean dining room. Classic pub menu, plus daily specials.Good sized portions, with the burgers being especially good and juicy.20% off all food and drinks on a Monday.Large car park to rear.

Came here a few months ago now, there wasnt many vegetarian things on the menu except the usual cheese and onion pie kinda thing so i asked them if i could have the beef and dauphinoise potatoes but without the beef, they were more than happy to comply. Was also happy i didnt get charged the full amount of the meal without the beef. The dauphinoise potatoes were perfect! As were all the veg! Would definitely come back here and recommend to anyone
