The Cotton House — Restaurant in Borough of Rossendale

Our first time at The Cotton House. It was absolutely freezing, so much so that we had to eat with our coats on. My parents live locally and had asked on booking to be seated near somewhere warm as my father is 88 years old. They sat us next to the log burner which wasn’t on! We commented on how cold it was several times to staff who just passed it off or said they couldn’t do anything about it. My father asked a young man directly could we have the fire on and he sort of nodded and said ‘ok pal’ and was very dismissive- the fire remained unlit. We felt this was very disrespectful to an elderly gentleman. The food was variable. Some of my party enjoyed it, some said it was mediocre. The steak frites was asked for pink and it was well done and like a bit of shoe leather. Some of the food was cold but with the temperature in the pub being akin to that of a morgue refrigerator, I’m not surprised. The burger was good, if a little over-done.

We would have liked dessert but at that point we were so cold we had to leave and thaw out.

We get that it’s a lovely old building, but if you are welcoming guests in and want them to return, then I think it’s not a big ask to put the fire and the heating on. We felt some of the radiators and they also weren’t on. The only warm place was by the door underneath the heat curtain. I also understand business and the balance between heating costs and making a profit- I guess if you want to keep the business going you have to encourage people back in some way. It was ln the dining experience we had hope for-...

Review of The Cotton House, Ramsbottom

We recently had the pleasure of dining at The Cotton House in Ramsbottom, and it was an experience to remember. The venue strikes the perfect balance between a family-friendly atmosphere and a sophisticated setting for couples looking to enjoy exceptional food and ambiance.

I have been consistently always impressed with The Cotton House. This establishment is perfect for any occasion. Whether you want a nice evening meal, a spot for some weekend brunch, or a casual drink, I would highly recommend this restaurant. The food is always phenomenal and at great value - portions are generous and meals are prepared to an excellent standard. The decor of the venue is very tasteful, and due to popularity, the busyness of the restaurant creates a tremendous family-friendly atmosphere. Most importantly, staff are attentive, friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The owners (Zak and Marcus) are both hardworking lads, always ensuring that service is amazing and that all customers are well looked after. On several occasions I have attended The Cotton House for drinks, food, brunch, and a Sunday Roast - and on every occasion, I have left being extremely impressed with my experiences. In particular, The Cotton House Breakfast and the Beef Sunday Roast have been two of the best meals I have had...
