Reviews in Clitheroe

Since the restaurant opened we have now eaten here on three occasions. The food is excellent Italian cuisine from an extensive menu with a good choice for everyone, supplemented by a very good wine list. There is a very good atmosphere and the staff are very hospitable and attentive. All in all this is an excellent restaurant and a welcome addition to the area.

Our first visit to The Villa. Our party of 8 were greeted with a warm welcome on arrival and shown to the cellar bar for pre-dinner drinks. Nice lively atmosphere. Service and food was good but with one criticism there seemed to be quite a few cream based dishes on the menu no big deal but can restrict your choice. Would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Visited for Sunday lunch and the food and wine were both excellent. Very good Sunday lunch menu available as well as extensive Italian a la carte. The staff couldn't do enough for our party. Thoroughly recommended by all 6 of us.

We are regulars at The Spread Eagle and the food is always excellent - must say though that Sunday's meal was the best ever. Do try the game casserole if it's on the menu!

We came across the pub by chance on a Sunday.They had a Sunday lunch menu as well as a la carte.Choice was excellent & no course disappointed.from seafood or black pudding with belly pork starter. With mains of roast beef or pork both satisfying the taste buds. A good range in the sweet department which should make everyone happy.And if wine is your tipple you cant go wrong with their selection. Take some friends,we will definitely be going back.

Called in recently for Sunday lunch. 1st time of visiting this establishment and found the mixture of old world pub charm and excellent restaurant cuisine amazing. Staff were very friendly and the food delicious.

We originally found Amico Mio on Sugarvine.com and have visited many times now, but most recently went on Friday night, and as always was very busy, with the usual romantic atmosphere, a guitarist playing in the background and the staff very attentive, and also had a chilled bottle of Rose waiting at my table on arrival made this a special birthday for my wife. The food doesn’t really need a mention as it was as spectacular as ever, this is far from your usual “authentic” Italian restaurant. If you’re looking for a nice calming romantic meal or a lively fun evening with family and friends then Amico Mio is the place for you. Keep up the good work.........Brillante, Bravo

Today is my first time out to CLITHEROE with my family on a DAY TRIP tour to the Dales and we had a meal at the CALF`S HEAD. I have to say the wide range of menus and the generous portion of food was very good. The food was fresh and the presentation was good.The staffs were friendly and helpful and they worked their socks off. I would highly recommend this pub to my friends . Keep up with the good standard

Wonderful atmosphere, fantastic service, friendly staff, absolutely out of this world food. Would highly recommend. Only thing that lets it down, are the toilets. Well the ladies anyway, I haven't been in the mens :) They are grotty and tired. But that is nothing to do with the food and service. Second to none.

Did a walk that started and finished at this pub. We popped in for a great pint afterwards. Will definitely return to this beautiful spot for a meal.

I have visited the Freemasons at Wiswell on several occasions with my partner and children. Each time the service has been great, and the food is fantastic - especially their mini sweet selection! Top quality food with a really great atmosphere. Much recommended.

Absolutely wonderful! The pappa al pomodoro was INCREDIBLE.... Warm and cozy authentic, hearty Italian!

On a one night stopover in the area my husband and I visited Benedict's, for a light meal. Can't praise it highly enough. We were spoilt for choice with light meals, (chef's Pate-Delicious.) Mains and Deserts. Food was 1st class and presentation beautiful, bottle of wine with meal was exceptional value and the coffee delicious. The ambience, food, art work all made for an enjoyable experience, we'll definitely visit again.

Stayed 3 weeks ago on a Sunday and had brilliant 2 days. Great place - lovely food and lovely bloke who owns it. Hotel room - dinner and full breakfast in lovely place for £25 - fantastic. Castle and park 2 mins walk away. Whalley Abbey 10 mins in car.

Highly recommend La laconda went there for the first time 4/10/10 it was the best Italian we have ever had!!!!!!!!! we have bought a lodge near by so we will be regulars.

This delightful deli bar has a nice ambiance, we stopped for a coffee and cake. My wife chose a Rocky Road to die for. There's lots to admire inside with art on the walls and gorgeous food items to take away. It's licensed too!

Spent a fab night at the Spread last week. Cosy bar with real ale, the nicest restaurant I have been in, food was fabulous, the room was lovely, the setting was lovely,a guy played acoustic guitar and sang while we finished off a great bottle of wine, I was in heaven. Sawley Abbey 3 minutes walk away.

This has got to be the best by far! I am coeliac and have never been treated or greeted so well in a restaurant since I was diagnosed 5 years ago. The food was excellent as was the choice. A very friendly, helpful and value for money meal. We enjoyed the ambience and the atmosphere. What a pleasant surprise we shall certainly be returning soon and I plan to organise a trip over bringing with me folks from the Manchester group of the coeliac society. Thanks Rachael and to all your staff too we had a perfect evening.
