The Whitchaff - Rossendale

The restaurant review mentions that the opening times listed on the website do not match the food availability times, which are shorter, but understandable. The food times are somewhat hidden in a drop down menu. The reviewer believes that the website could clarify this better. They rated the service a 2 out of 5 and the atmosphere a 4 out of 5.

A very popular local pub with an extensive menu. We were there on a lovely sunny day and sat in the garden. There was so much choice we struggled to pick but were not disappointed. Some unusual dishes and good sized portions. Service was prompt despite being busy, and friendly. Dogs are not welcome indoors. Parking: It's easy to miss the entrance to the carpark but there's also lots of on-street parking. Price per person: £20–30

Booked a table for 2 for a friend’s birthday. We had a lovely cosy corner, service was top class, efficient but not rushed. Food was 10/10 with good vegetarian options, we had a fabulous pudding too which was huge and we shared. Parking onsite is free, tables are not too close together and there is a lovely outdoor seating area too. Clean loos too. Will be back again and again! Price per person: £20–30

The food, staff, service, and atmosphere at this restaurant are all amazing. Everything was perfect. The price per person ranges from £20–£30. I would rate the food and service a 5 out of 5.

I have been going to the Whitchaff for as long as I can remember; whether it's for dates, family meals, or catching up with friends. The food is consistently amazing, making it tough to decide what to order each time. Some of our favorites include the steak and Stilton pie, cajun chicken ciabatta, and the cheesy garlic bread. The burgers are huge and the desserts are delicious. The portion sizes are just right, and the prices are reasonable. During busy times, the service can be a bit slow but not to the point where you feel forgotten. This gives you more time to relax and enjoy your company. The staff is lovely and the recent refurbishment adds to the charm of the place. We are not local but we all make the drive to get there. It's recommended to make a reservation, but during nicer weather, you can also dine outside. We are grateful that they survived the challenges of Covid, as it would have been a loss to lose such a great place.
