"Our first visit today. I am a meat eater (reducing my intake of meat though) and the Mrs is a vegan and it is so difficult to find somewhere that serves a balance of food suitable for her and that will keep me interested too. There are so few places around East Lancashire/above Manchester so we were delighted to get a recommendation for Earthlings from our vegan friend. Simple elegant decor and a spotlessly clean premises, an interesting menu and specials board and very friendly staff. So...the food I went for the breakfast burrito, a beautiful purple coloured wrap with mushrooms, ‘Sosage’ pattie and whole earth baked beans, salad leaves and tomatoes on the side. I would have licked the plate clean had social etiquette allowed. The Mrs went for the Pumpkin seed, quinoa and Chia burger with slaw salsa and a few sweet potato cubes on the side from the specials board. I didn’t try hers, but she made approving noises and faces whilst she ate and said after how nice it was. Dessert was choc orange cheesecake with a scoop of vanilla Booja Booja ‘ice cream’ for me and Lavender and Lemon cheesecake with a scoop of berry sorbet for the Mrs. A cappuccino and an Americano brought the bill to around £33 money well spent and we will definitely be going back!"

"we have taken a friend here for lunch, a little drive for us, but she doesn't live too far. it was worth the trip, both eating and the beer were excellent. it is worth going as a group as the menu has small dishes, so with a group you can choose many more to share among them. beautiful ambiente and long after eating and drinking we stayed on to chat as they cleaned up for the evening and it was nice that she didn't mind and did not try to throw us out what was really nice of them. I'm sure you're worth a visit."

"What a lovely place! It oozes kerb side appeal, and has plenty of parking too. The pub itself was really well decorated and had such a friendly atmosphere, and we received a really warm welcome. We stayed in room 4 which was such a lovely room. It was so clean, spacious and well equipped and we just LOVED the bay window so pretty. It was really tastefully decorated and the bed was super comfy too. The food was delicious definitely worth visiting for. The duck spring rolls as a starter were full of meat and the Manchester Tart was just delicious. I'd definitely like to return to sample some of the other dishes available. Breakfast was well cooked and really tasty a really good portion size too. And as for the staff they were all so friendly and welcoming and really added to the character of the place. They definitely made our stay very welcoming. Thank you so much for our stay we've already spread the word and will definitely be revisiting for another stay in the future."

"I took my grandma for lunch at Owens today. We were greeted warmly as we entered the restaurant, and shown to our table by Oliver, who pointed out the specials board and offered us menus. Our drinks order was taken promptly and delivered promptly (1 hot pot of fresh tea served with a small cute glass bottle of milk, and a shortbread biscuit on the side, and a bottle of sparking water served with a glass of ice and slice of lemon . Our food order was 2 x prawn sandwiches on white bread. The food was served fresh and beautifully presented. 4 triangles of stuffed, soft white bread sandwiches on each of our plates the prawns were a good size, fresh, mixed in a light marie rose sauce, and generously portioned within each sandwich. Accompanying the sandwiches were a portion of chunky chips that were delicious, and a salad and coleslaw garnish. The meal was simple yet delicious and filling. Given the temperature of the day (an extremely warm 22° , the restaurant was very comfortable and cool. The service was warm, friendly and efficient, and the passion pride that the owners/management have for this restaurant is evident in their presence and also in their staff, food and environment. We are very much looking forward to returning for dinner one evening soon, as the wider menu (beyond the sandwiches we chose for lunch looked fantastic. I highly recommend this restaurant."
