Reviews in Rawtenstall

We visited the Whitchaff for the first time since the refurbishment and were extremely impressed. The whole experience was perfect . Atmosphere, quality and variety of food as well as politeness and courtesy of staff are all a credit to you. Thank you .

Incredible food, best tapas I have ever had. Atmosphere was great and great service! Will 100% be returning

I’ve always liked the Whitchaff as I used to go there in the 80’s! It’s lovely to see it refurbished (at last) and want it to be successful. I think the menu choice is great and the service is good most of the time. Reports are that it is a little “on and off”. Service is so, so important and I really do hope that this is focused on. That really is the success of any restaurant.

Fantastic service on the day. Food was Gorgeous!

Fabulous food. Had the turkey dinner and it was beautiful and generous for a great price. Pub is lovely having had a recent refurb. White wine was not very cold. And staff don’t acknowledge when we arrived so stood for quite a while at the bar waiting to advise we had arrived. Those are minor gripes. The food, the place, the value, and the service (post the arrival experience) were all great. We will be back, lots!

We have been eating here for a few years and it never ever fails to impress. Last night’s meal was absolutely stunning. Delicious & interesting dishes with fantastic service and such a lovely festive atmosphere. So lucky to have this place on our doorstep.

Remarkable renovation. Hard to believe its the same premises. Very well laid out and decorated and much more spacious. However it's not so much a pub that does food now, more a restaurant serving drinks. I can live with that as on this, our first post renovation visit, the quality of the food was excellent. Traditional fare but very well cooked and presented. Additionally the staff were very friendly and efficient and, to add to my satisfaction, the bill was very reasonable given overall all round quality, location surroundings and welcome offered. Will def. be back soon and have already recommended to many.

We all enjoyed our visit to Whitchaff Inn to celebrate my husband’s birthday it is the first time we’ve been in since the renovations have been completed and I must say we were all impressed with the layout plus the food and service was excellent. Would highly recommend to friends & family.

Amazing food!!! Will definitely be returning. A reasonable price and great portion size.

Fantastic food, drink and service this Christmas Eve. This is our third visit. We'll be back, soon hopefully. We had a lovely time, thank you. It was our children's first visit and they also enjoyed the food. It was great to introduce them to different foods that they haven't tried before. They thought the chickpea fritters and swordfish was very tasty.

Food and service amazing as always

Fabulous food, great service. Would definitely recommend!

Had a lovely meal on Christmas Eve, all six of us had something different and all the food was really nice. Thanks

Great service and very nice food, the Ragu arancini was particularly tasty

Excellent food, tastes like all ingredients are carefully sourced for maximum flavour, good service.

Thoroughly enjoyed our evening at A’Vucciria on Saturday for my sister’s birthday. The food and atmosphere was fantastic and the service, as always, was faultless. Can’t wait to come back

Had the nicest girly lunch today. We shared a platter which was delicious and more than enough for the 2 off us and it also came with 2 glasses of wine. My favourite place.

Great experience. Food great. Service wonderful. Value for money was great. We will be back.
