Reviews in Clitheroe

I have enjoyed many meals at Calves Head restaurant. I enjoy the food and location so much I have booked my wedding reception. The staff are friendly and always attentive.

For lovers of fine wine and food, Mitton Hall is among the best. The whole place exudes a certain quirkiness from the furnishings to the personnel who are kissed hello and goodbye, thanked by the manager (rare!) and all immaculately presented. Forget the formality visit yourself and indulge, wonderful.

Eccentricity at it's best! Visiting for dinner on Saturday evening we were welcomed by what appeared to be the Lady of the Manor and entertained by what must be the Lord. There is a chic style to the service at Mitton and this is matched by the food and drink. The Lady explained any dish we inquired about and the Lord waxed lyrical about our wine choices. We had a selection of Tapas as starters and robust main courses from the Brasserie menu including melt-in-the-mouth steak and despite a full brasserie and bar we didn't wait for anything including jokes! Mitton hall is something very special be it the decor, the food or the Lady Melanie and her partner Lord Andrew. Try it you will not be disappointed.

I'd been meaning to try this place for a while because of it's reputation, but I'm not sure it's completely well founded. Don't get me wrong, it's nice, perhaps a bit pricey on some things for the quality (the £17 steak wasn't the best). The atmosphere is nice although a little touristy, the food all sounded nice but we found it to be overly salty. Also they don't serve drinks to your table so you have to keep traipsing back up to the bar throughout your meal. The ribs with devilled peas are recommended.

29th march 2008 visited early evening, when not too busy. good food and great location, but spoilt by over attentive and fussy staff. requested a table for two, was shown a table near the area where food was served from, so asked for one away from this area, was told tables where booked,the place was empty at 6.30!! the food was delicious, but to be asked 6 times by staff if everything was ok, gets a bit irritating, let the food speak for itself.. probably wont return as we felt pressured into rushing the meal, with over zealous hovering staff.

Lovely place, exceptional atmosphere and lovely food. Worth a visit

Amazing! Mitton hall has been completely transformed into a very special place. We visited on thursday lunchtime and enjoyed the experience so much we returned on Saturday night and again with friends on Sunday lunchtime. On each occasion we were entertained by a double act behind the bar one singing and one who wouldn't have looked out of place in Goodfella's. The food is to die for and the service with a smile will keep us going back for more. Not to mention that we really would like to know from mark and Andy what actually did happen 15 minutes later.. Many Thanks Kay Flac

First visit here on recommendation. Well impressed. Very good food indeed. Had rabbit casserole and chocolate fondant pudding. Gorgeous. Will return

Good pate and good fish and chips...... but rapidly becoming a place we cringe at going to since it is so packed with wannabee WAGs and millions of children! I think the fishes has had it's day. Try Mitton Hall for gorgeous decor or The Red Pump for better food instead!

First class Italian restaurant with excellent food and welcoming professional service. The home made pasta is fantastic and the huge selection of food and wine make this one of our favourite current places to eat.

Great, great location, great service and blimey many must agree as it was packed with a waiting list!

My daughter was married there yesterday It was fantastic, The atmosphere the hall the room the staff nothing was to much trouble. I can thoroughly recommend the venue and it is excellent value. It was a perfect place for a very special and perfect occasion.

Excellent food and great value, well worth a visit!!!

We held our wedding at Mitton Hall on 11th Jan 08. We had a few concerns following the takeover but after meeting with Rachel & Maurice, we were put at ease. Our wedding day was absolutely amazing and it's all thanks to everyone at Mitton Hall. The day was perfect with great food, attentive staff and great organisation, we really couldn't fault it. Thanks for making our day perfect in every way x

Amazing! The transformation of Mitton Hall is astounding. From the decor, the food, and the smiling service. The place is a must. We were recommended to pay a visit by friends who also couldn't believe the transformation, The staff in place are brilliant. Mel our waitress was first class and our silver toothed barman a laugh a minute. Congratulations to all

Visiting Mitton Hall on a Friday evening one could get the impression you had crashed a family get together. The staff are kissed hello and goodbye everybody knows everybody else and every customer seems to know Andy the barman! We were welcomed, not served, but "Looked after" from pre dinner drinks to coffee. The food is out of this world and sent out on slates. We will be visiting again with friends very soon!!

Best food, great place , service fantastic the best in the north west( ZAK ) thanks for lovely day 25th.

Best cottage pie I can recall having. Great location in the countryside outside of Clitheroe and its got rooms. May have to go and stay so I can sample the beer too!
