The best restaurants serving Default food in Ribble Valley North West

My wife and I came across this quaint tea shop quite by chance, as it is on the outskirts of the village and laid back from the road behind a small cobbled forecourt.On entering we found it contained eight tables and quite busy for a Saturday afternoon.We ordered coffees and sandwiches which were made to order and absolutely delicious.I shall definitely return and tell my friends about it.Im not certain of the opening hours,so will need to check before I return.I thoroughly recommend it.

Had Lancashire cheese sandwiches which were superb with a great tasting chutney. Service was excellent. Glad that we booked beforehand. Cakes were nice but would have liked a side of cream

Lovely ice cream (even on a cold January day!) served by Mandy (the owner) who was friendly and gave our dog some pieces of ham (which he enjoyed too😊).

Lovely central pub/hotel really friendly staff. Basic but really clean accommodation. Free parking and WiFi good. Nice breakfast too! Really well run place, pity the brewery won't fund a fab refit and advertise as the location is absolutely perfect. Really lovely town and the Rose and Crown has parking which is invaluable. Michelle and her staff deserve to be full every night!

Fantastic chippy. Freshly cooked produce, great quality, big portion sizes, fantastic staff, win win all round!

The worst Indian food I have ever had. We ordered pilau rice, murgh balti and paneer pakoda. They were badly cooked, with poor seasoning and terrible taste. An evening ruined while on holiday. We had to throw away most of what we ordered !

This pub has recently had a facelift, and boy does it show. It looks fantastic. The staff are very welcoming, I didn’t have an alcoholic drink but other customers seemed happy with their drinks. The food holy smokes the food was amazing, very well presented and tasted brilliantly. Overall very successful visit. I know the new landlady so I’ll be back multiple times! Good job folks

Called in at lunchtime visiting my elderly parents for a takeaway. Excellent food cooked to perfection fish was amazing and a lot cheaper UP NORTH 10 out of 10 for me for quality and freshly cooked fish 👍

Incredible service. Family owned, honest people. Great tasty and authentic food, cheap for quality as well. Great place.

Turned up at about 8.50am on Easter bank holiday Monday. Had checked the website before hand. It said open at 8am. So we went along. 4 of us. Three adults and a 2 year old. Got to the door, which was open. Was told “we open in 10 minutes” we asked if we could sit inside for that time (because it was a bit chilly outside) but the dark haired girl said she was doing the cashing up so no we couldn’t. I was there with my daughters and a 2 year old. We were hardly going to rob the place. Plus, it turned out when we got inside that this was a building with a very open communal seating area which she could have let us sit at for 10 minutes. We ordered our food. I asked if there was any juice for kids (the 2 year old) - the dark haired girl working said “only what we’ve got in the fridge”. I said “don’t you have any orange juice or anything like that?” The reply being - “only what we’ve got in the fridge” which was those pretentious glass bottles of 1930’s fizzy pop (the brand that does stuff like dandelion and burdock). I bought two bottles of “Orange and Mandarin” thinking they weren’t fizzy. They were. More fool me. Basically Tory Fanta. Anyway. I went and sat down with my older daughters and my 2 year old son. My daughters ordered avocado on toast with salmon. I had a full English being the uncouth soul that I am. I asked if they have a kids menu for my 2 year old. The answer was no. I ordered him beans, one sausage and some scrambled eggs. I was told this could be done from the side menu, that alone cost £7.50. The beans, sausage and eggs came out on the same plate as one of my daughters breakfast. We had to guess that was the case (not mastermind but still ridiculously daft that they’d do this) we had to ask for a plate for my 2 year old who was in a high chair. Anyway. Another family came in about the same time as us. Low and behold another of their staff bought out two huge glasses of orange juice for them. So they did have other drinks available. My full English was ok, but it wasn’t great. The bacon was burned. It wasn’t crispy like the menu says. It was burned. So if the proprietor/owner wants to reply to this with a clever comment. The bacon was burned. Also, the poached eggs were COLD. And I don’t mean not quite warm, they were cold. We were the first people in, the place wasn’t busy and somehow I was served cold poached eggs. I’ve re read through the menu tonight before writing this review. Whenever I choose a place to eat again I’m always going to look for the word “Artisan” because that to me, on the whole means not very good. The “Artisan” toast I received was just sliced bread, but toasted. They even claim to have an “Artisan” Brioche bun If you look up the definition of “Artisan” in the dictionary it says. a person or company that produces something (such as cheese or wine) in limited quantities often using traditional methods —often used before another noun artisan breads I don’t think that you can claim that obviously pre sliced bread or even a Brioche Bun is “Artisan”. There’s too many mediocre cafes/restaurants who have latched onto this word and used it. The company website claims “We focus on quality and sustainability above all, which extends to everything we do. From our suppliers to takeaway packaging, we carefully select each element keeping you and the planet in mind. We support local, and well-being of the community is at the heart of what we do.” This is nonsense. My daughters asked for some tap water, they were pointed towards one of those fancy upside down glass water bottles, and plastic cups, plastic lids. Lots of plastic. They had paper straws. I don’t know about you, but if you want to be really sustainable, if someone asks for tap water, give them a glass of tap water in a glass. Zero plastic, zero waste. To finish up. Pros - pretty pattern on the coffee. Cons - Really incredibly gormless staff; bad cook who can’t even cook bacon or keep a poached egg warm; rude; not child friendly as no kids menu even at weekends/bank holidays (although there was a couple of high chairs). As you can imagine I will never be going back to this place. I’ve given them two stars because my daughter liked the swirly pattern on the top of her Flat White.

The service was shocking. We were the first there but about 5 tables got drinks and food before we got our drinks, which I had to ask for twice. It was 45 Minutes. My partner left his latte with an extra shot!! (don’t t think so!!) it was just milk and water . My jacket potato was tiny, tasteless and over baked. Side salad was core of lettuce, one half of a cherry tomato and a half piece of a slice cucumber. Dismal. Never again!!!

Wow ! A friend recommended this as we like to go to out of the ordinary and unique places for breakfast . We were not disappointed . The staff were so friendly and welcoming everyone was polite and so helpful . My partner has slight mobility issues and the staff advised on the best routes around the property to avoid problems ! Everyone of the staff we met smiled and said hello We had breakfast which was amazing . Everything was cooked well and tasted lovely . The sausages and bacon were to die for !! The ambiance of the whole place was so lovely we seriously recommend this little gem and if your a gardening enthusiast we doubly recommend a visit ! Despite the weather we had a great morning ! Thank you we will be back !!

I tried to order a full English breakfast without a few items and they wouldn’t swap me anything and tried charging me a extra 1.50 so I thought man 10er for my breakfast that’s a bit steep . So just got bacon and sausage baton and I got one bacon one sausage for 5.50 and to top it off it was cold and chippy sausage. Joke off a place will not be going again . And there is dogs running around in the kitchen

Changed ownership 3 times in last 4 years and unfortunately none have had real success, part of that is i suppose is the there are too many cafes in such a little village. The ther 3 are all well known and loved for their individuality but this one doesnt offer anything above and beyond. Coffee, cakes. jackets sandwiches toasties and breakfasts so unless it develops its own unique style it will never be a roaring success.The quality and taste is just average and is somehing you can buy and make to the same quality at home for a fraction of the price

A piece of Italy in the Ribble Valley. Thoroughly well designed and decorated establishment done to a high standard. One of the best looking places in clitheroe. From coffees to cocktails with impeccable service standards. Been back since to the same service and experience. Enjoyed by all. Even baby change facilities which were supplied with everything you're likely to forget!
