The best restaurants in Ribble Valley North West

Great for breakfast or lunch if you are staying here, coffee is top notch.

Recently moved to the area and often walk the dogs at Spring Wood. Went today in this glorious weather and after the walk had lunch courtesy of the fantastic "What the fork" food van. After battling over the choices on the menu we both settled for the Donner Wrap...... A strange choice you may assume give. We weren't full of 8 pints of wobbly juice before hand but please ....trust me. The Donner Wrap was absolutely fantastic! Easily the best "takeaway/ streetfood" I have had in a looooong time. REAL Turkish beef and chicken dinner crammed & served in a burrito style toasted wrap with a beautifully refreshing diced salsa with tomato, pomegranate, onion, which acted as flavour enhancement rather than the usual "filler" from most places. The service was fantastic and had great conversation with friendly, normal people.....which makes a change from the normal entitled business people that usually undertake these sorts of businesses. Clearly passionate about what they do and care about given a customer good food. There is so much potential for this place ...I can imagine lights up in summer evenings and holding BBQ styles evenings ...or taster evenings, could be incredible. Anyway enough of my rambling, needless to say I was impressed and will be back at least weekly. All the best Guys you have a hit. PS Maverick and Rooster say the sausages are spectacular.

Lovely spot here, delicious food and very much enjoyed the outdoor area :) Thank you, will definitely be coming back again

Myself and my family love this place! The food is excellent and the staff are always friendly whilst knowledgeable regarding their tasty menu. My hubby had the lamb shank which was so tender it literally falls from the bone and melts in your mouth, he wants the secret recipe! My daughter and her partner each had the paphos chicken souvlaki which was huge and along with the sides would quite easily be enough for two diners. I chose the cypriot chicken and again it was a good sized portion along with being extremely delicious. We’ve always enjoyed our Brizola experience each time we’ve dined here and would highly recommend, definitely 10/10.

We went to Angels for our second visit, taking my sister and brother in law, using a voucher we purchased for my brother in laws birthday and christmas present. The only word we can use is WOW The food the staff and the atmosphere were amazing, the music is just right, the right sound and volume so you can all talk comfortably, but can still here the music. The food is wonderful and I can't wait until we go back again.

Absolutely beautiful!!!! I was seated immediately on a Saturday just as they opened at 12. The food came out fast and was served hot and fresh. I had the sea bass which was cooked perfectly, a nice crisp to the skin. The flavours were amazing. I would definitely recommend. I also had a choux bun for dessert which was a rich chocolaty delight!! The atmosphere was calming and relaxed and they had a great wine list. The South African Chenin blanc was superb!! The pricing was fair especially for Whalley and the menu had some very appealing dishes I’m wanting to try. Thank you guys, I will definitely be returning!

Lovely little cafe dog friendly and great prices. Nice tea cakes and coffee. Could not resist a Fish Finger Butty with chips and salad all for £7.95. Clean and tidy with table service. It’s a little on the chilly side at the front end but they provide lap blankets so all good. Really friendly staff.

Eat a lot of mighty joel burgers while visiting Longridge 👍 Shame we don't have a roast & deli in Scotland! Great size portions too

Great shop with plenty of selection and friendly service.

They don't sell food but have a good range of real ales, beers and spirits at reasonable prices. Good atmosphere but gets very busy quickly given small venue.

Great food. The Venison and Chorizo Fritter starter was excellent and the Sunday Lunch is the best in the Ribble Valley.

I gave this a top rating, the staff were very courteous and helpful. The food was delicious and there were plenty of vegetarian options. The venue was clean and cosy. For the meal with desert and drinks it averaged around £30 per head.

Lovely and lively venue in Whalley. Will be visiting again.

If you're a member of a walking group, or just out walking in the vicinity of Hurst Green or Stoneyhurst College, this place is a gem of a find just minutes away at the Gardens at Stydd. They provide super coffee and cakes, plus more if you wish, in comfortable, warm surroundings. The staff are very friendly and super efficient and it was an absolute pleasure to find it. (The Victoria Sponge was in my top three Victoria Sponges, and believe you me, I've eaten many over the years!) I could not recommend this establishment highly enough and will definitely come here again.

I love these place to have a great sandwich, toastie or a wrap. They have other options, good hot drinks and a very good price.
