"We visited for late lunch for my husband’s birthday. The food was really good as always. A lot of Pubs particularly in the Ribble Valley have food that sounds wonderful in the hyped up description on the menu, but often doesn’t actually deliver. The food at the Calf’s head is unpretentious ,British Pub food of a good quality ,and excellent portion size. I had 3 starters instead of a main meal, it was a mistake due to the portion side. I had Samosas, there were 5 on the plate. I would have expected 3 maximum. I had chilli garlic prawns , again an excellent portion and oven baked garlic mushrooms. The mushrooms were the best I have had anywhere. My husband had meat and potato pie , which he thoroughly enjoyed. We had desserts, one Ferrero Rocher cheesecake which was lovely and one Manchester tart( reminiscent of school dinners but much nicer). It’s not fine dining, the presentation is plain but for good old British Pub food, it’s some the best in the area."

Not been looked after this well in a long time. Good food good service. Large portions. A choice of 22 desserts. An attention to detail I haven't witnessed in a long time. Keep up the excellent job. Will be back when we in the area again.

This pub is excellent with delicious food and beer. The staff are all friendly and helpful. They have a large garden area, but the decking area needs some maintenance. I wouldn't recommend sitting in the seats as they are not in good condition. However, overall, it is a great place to visit.

The service at this restaurant is always exceptional, with attentive and friendly staff. The food is delicious, well-prepared, and definitely not overcooked, with generous portion sizes. The facilities are clean and well-maintained. This is a place we frequent often because the quality is consistently high.

Up to usual standard Sunday lunch with friends was very good. The packed car park tells how popular the hotel is- we quite easily got a table and prolific amount waitresses meant e didn’t have long to wait. Drinks and excellent service made the event an enjoyable experience. Frequently use the Sister restaurant in Burnley and can’t fault either.

Had tea out tonight for valentines and as usual didn't disappoint. We had a three course meal, we've eaten here many times but tonight we tried something we wouldn't normally chose a seafood platter sharing board, there was plenty on it and the fish was cooked to perfection, all three courses were really good , good portions good tasting food and the staff are great too very attentive and friendly and always consistent it never disappoints

Visited yesterday with a family party of 28. We were given 3 tables in the lovely lower part of the room. I was very impressed with how efficient the staff were. Nobody was waiting for food, and everyone on each table got their food at the same time. Food was lovely as usual, and there was a great choice of meals and desserts. The gluten-free menu had lots to choose from, and i was told that the gluten-free fish and chips were really good. I was a little apprehensive with it being such a large party on a Sunday, but i needn't have been as it was a really pleasant experience. Would highly recommend.

Went here recently for Sunday lunch with family.The pub was busy- usually a good sign.We had a table in the large conservatory.I noticed lots of bits of food on the floor- not a great first impression.The menu was huge- not always a good sign.I ordered fish and chips. It was the worst fish and chips I have had for a long time and not cheap either at 17. The fish was ok but the chips were awful and mushy peas tasteless.I left most of it. For dessert I had “ homemade” sherry trifle.it came in a glass topped with artificial whipped cream.The custard was too hard,the sponge tasteless and the fruit out of a tin.I left most of it. The rest of our family party were underwhelmed by their meals as we...

The restaurant is situated in a beautiful area with lovely premises. Although we had originally planned to eat elsewhere, the restaurant was bustling with customers. The service was excellent and the staff were friendly. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast. Our room, Room 2, was spacious and stocked with plenty of tea and coffee. However, the bed was broken and uncomfortable, with springs poking into our backs. When we reported this in the morning, there was no one on site to address the issue immediately. The staff said they would look into it but did not offer an apology or compensation, causing me to deduct one star from my rating. Additionally, we were instructed to let ourselves in if we a...

"I wasn't at blueberries with my friends since before covid so it was great to kick through the door and see how busy it is, fortunately I had a table for lunch. there is nothing special vegan on the menu, but they try to place their very hardest, in contrast to some places. I love a jacket kartoffel and choose her beats with various items from the menu, so ordered frying and avocado. katherine, one of the owners and cook came on our table and said she could suggest some other dishes and also vegan cheese if I did not the jacket kartoffel, but if I still did how about the topping of sonbs. what a nice geste and I will visit her on her offer of other options at the next. I noticed that they were able to offer vegan options for their Christmas card and also had two vegan, frozen meals to take away, moussaka and chili. my friends ordered a chicken and specksalat and a fish and chips and both said that eating was delicious with a mention that the chips were the best. my kartoffel was huge, with a lot of topping, served with beautiful salat and quickly grinded. the food is made fresh to order and blueberries is very popular as full it was on a cold Wednesday afternoon. there is also a small marquee on the side of the blueberries, which for those who are brave and sitting the weather and of course adds extra space. I really can't knock blueberries, they may not have vegan options (although a cake would be nice and I need to ask if they have plant milk as I always have my own. but they will always try to eat rusty something satisfying and with announcing can something like a vegan hotpot that I had before, what was brilliant."
