"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!"

"POSITIVES: really tasty food all of our plates were empty and we enjoyed each dish good choices for vegetarian and pescatarian meals NEGATIVES: Pub was freezing cold, we were both in our coats and still had cold fingers and toes. It killed the atmosphere for us on a Friday evening pricey for what it is and it’s location, it was the same prices as a decent restaurant in Manchester, but without the ambiance. I imagine the rent in Holcombe is much less than manchester and they might invest in some heating tiny portions! We ordered 7 dishes between 2 and were both still hungry afterwards. Average dish was around £10 and they didn’t touch the sides. 10% service charge auto added. I hate it when any restaurant add this as this takes away the customer’s kind gesture. It becomes an expectation. Yes this is optional, but it’s to awkward to request that this is removed or reduced. I think this is assumptive when there’s only two diners and we had arrived and exited within the hour, was both still hungry and was sat in the cold for the duration."

"We happened to stop by while taking a walk around Egerton, and the staff were incredibly accommodating, seating us in one of the booths at the front. They were fantastic! Our drinks arrived quickly, and as soon as we ordered our meals, the food followed shortly after. I must admit, we were initially spoiled for choice with such a great selection of dishes on the menu. We decided to start with the goat cheese and halloumi appetizers, and both were absolutely delicious! Definitely a must for cheese lovers! For our main courses, we chose the Italian chicken gnocchi and a burger with fries. Both dishes were generous in size and really tasty! The burger was quite the challenge—definitely a big one to get your mouth around! I will definitely be returning to try some other dishes, and I would highly recommend this restaurant to family and friends!"

"Bit deflated after looking forward to the visit for so long. After booking well in advance for lunchtime and reading reviews we were excited to go. Cheese cheese cheese what’s not to love. Then we saw Raclette on the menu and imagined the melted raclette slab and slicing melting cheese and crusty bread with a chilli jam pot. To start we thought olives x3 to share whilst we chatted waiting for the Raclette and crusty warm bread. After all were in Ramsbottom with lots of local shops to supply. First we were asked if we wanted our starter before our mains or with our mains ! But just thought maybe that’s a thing with cheese, so declined and said we’d have it first please. Then Raclette came and it was baked Camembert. Gutted. But I like baked Camembert and we were hungry. Then the kicker the crusty hot bread was those par baked rolls you buy from the long life shelf. And I know they were as i used them during lockdown as an emergency. The jam was lovely. We were just a bit deflated. I later checked the website and the photos of the baked Camembert does show the par baked rolls. But as we walked back to the car we passed the most amazing bread shop and I just thought “why par baked when this is on your door step”. And just say baked Camembert. The place itself is cute and comfortable/ inviting."
