The best restaurants serving British food in Pendle North West

Love walking to the Anchor , the atmosphere inside is a proper traditional pub. Love the open fire there. Drink option great.

Excellent hosts and a lovely friendly atmosphere. We always get a lovely welcome here! The White Lion is a very old traditional inn, that has been modernised but still retains its charm. We last visited on a Sunday evening and enjoyed a live acoustic music event which is held there each month. The pub provided supper for the musicians, which on this occasion was delicious pizzas. We found the hosts to be welcoming, friendly and generous. Would highly recommend.

Dined at the White Swan several times and without fail, the food and service is exceptional. If it were closer to us, we'd be there on a weekly basis, it really is that good! My only request is that there might be better drinks options for "designated drivers" - a 0% alcohol fizz or wine would be great, so you don't feel like you're missing out. I'm sure it would go down well :) Other than that - perfection!

Took my husband for a birthday breakfast. Seen to a table and given menus straight away. Then waiting about15 mins for a member of staff to take our order. There were 6 staff stood about chatting and not doing very much. Eventually our food was ordered but took a while to come. I ordered sour dough with avocado and poached eggs. The bread was dry and partially burnt and not the brown bread that I asked for. It was inedible. My husband had a bacon sandwich and the bacon was fatty. He left some of it. Were we not asked how our food was until we went to pay the bill. I said I was disappointed and a drink was knocked off our bill. Definatly won’t be returning. Shame because this place used to be great.

Great spot for a quick chippy, friendly staff & delicious food in good portions! Would recommend any day of the week

Really surprised by how lovely our meal was. I had the most amazing cheese and onion pie. The staff were so polite and helpful. It’s been a year since we’ve been, but we will make this more frequent from now on.

Interesting and mixed feedback. Service can be slow buts it’s a self service cafe. Marie does however make the best coffee in Pendle so congrats Marie

We arrived anticipated lunch with our daughter and son in law would be lovely. Pulling up the building looked beautiful and very festive. On arrival we sat waiting for our drinks order, nobody approached. Eventually we got the attention of a lovely waiter..he took our drinks order with a smile. After that things got laughable..we ordered food starters and main meals..starters arrived after around 20 mins..all okay. Main meals then took one hour 15 to arrive after chasing numerous times. On arrival it was inedible..cold and very disappointing. I asked to see the manager he apologised and said it was because he was on his break. The food was sent back and we were told that its the kitchen staff and it happens frequently..there would be no charge. I didn't ask for the no charge we would rather have a lovely lunch..the restaurant is really beautiful..but dear me the food looks like it was microwaved from Iceland..and that's flattering.
