The best restaurants in Norden Rochdale North West

Lovely place, great food, reasonable prices and the staff are fantastic. Two meals and two drinks typically come to around £16 and it's a lot nicer and friendlier than any overpriced chain cafe. It has very quickly become a regular weekend stop for us.

Not been in the Brown Cow for a long time and was pleasantly surprised tonight. It just feels completely comfortable. Lovely staff and friendly clientele. Pub with a hug. I’ve come in with no makeup after working on a Saturday and it’s not pretentious at all. We will definitely be back. If I had one criticism it’s that the lighting is a bit bright and needs a dimmer in my opinion. But still, a really pleasant pub.

Good pub good atmosphere

Guinness was terrible. Gin and tonic was poor. Could be better.

Excellent hygiene standards and D + L are superb hosts.

Lovely little pub with a nice atmosphere, friendly staff and good food. Try it you won't be disappointed.

Food and service was excellent and prices are reasonable comparing to other places where I been to I will definitely visit again and recommend my friends to visit

Gorgeous place, lovely staff, beautiful food.

The Hop & Vine has a very cosy, intimate setting with exceptional food and service! The dine in for two for £39 is a great offer - which is seasonally refreshed. Highly recommended 🙌🏻

Wonderful place open on Sundays and bank holidays in season.It has been open for over 100 years.Well worth a visit.We just love it.

Beautiful atmosphere with gorgeous home cooked food. The staff were amazing and extremely helpful. Will definitely be returning.

We visited the Pavilion bistro last night with a party of 16 people for a 40th Birthday. Our party sat in the garden room which was beautifully decorated with a lovely warm fire. From the moment we arrived until the moment we left the staff were incredible, everyone commented on their professionalism, nothing was too much trouble and EVERYTHING was perfectly organized ! The food was absolutely fabulous and presentation was immaculate ! Compliments to the chef ! I can’t recommend this restaurant highly enough, it is perfection in every way. Thank you for making our special occasion even more special than we imagined it was going to be !

Shame as previous orders have been great .. but last 2 have arrived late and stone cold

Great place and fantastic menu. Favourite Indian restaurant around Rochdale.

This is a pity, but luckily very easy to fix. The most junior / youngest bar staff need customer service training and there needs to be discipline from the other staff in ensuring this is respected. Two examples: - Young lady behind the bar was doing nothing for a while and then told me she couldn’t serve because she was underage (rudely). Next day she was serving so I wished her a happy birthday and her confusion wasn’t unexpected. Either lazy or working underage. Third day another young lady charged me for a beer and I asked why it was different price than the day before, before realising I’d had a different one. The lady and her friend from above point turned to one another and rolled their eyes and shook their heads in disgust. Bizarre. Final visit of the Xmas period I came in and ordered a beer and one of the two was again leaning against the back and rolled their eyes whilst trudging over to pour a beer. I saved her the trouble and politely cancelled the order and left. Toilets desperately need a spruce up. Didn’t try the food but I noted other customers asking the bar for cutlery and the staff asking customers to get it themselves from a tray. (They later told me the bar and the kitchen are separate. As a customer, I think that’s irrelevant.) Decor in the main part of the pub is nice. Very young crowd which is good to see but could be at risk of turning into a turnoff for others who aren’t young. All feedback is intended constructively.
