Not once were we asked if we were ok. We moved table & starters arrived, twice baked cheese soufflé (good choice) & roast tomato soup (not so good, lacked seasoning).

Tom’s Table is truly a hidden gem in the northwest, offering an experience that feels more like a delightful escape than just a meal. Nestled in the most idyllic of settings, this charming restaurant greets you with a picturesque courtyard out front. On a sunny day, dining here feels like you’ve been transported to the south of France—warm, inviting, and utterly serene.

The recent addition of the bar extension is a masterstroke, and I’m already looking forward to cozy winter visits. Their extensive selection of wines and handcrafted cocktails makes it the perfect spot to unwind during colder months. The warm, welcoming atmosphere, complete with inviting interiors and a sense of rustic elegance, creates a cozy vibe that will leave you wanting to linger for hours.

The food? Absolutely stunning. Every dish is crafted to perfection with an attention to detail that elevates it to something truly special. Whether it’s a casual lunch or an indulgent dinner, the menu never disappoints, delivering rich, flavorful plates that showcase both quality ingredients and expert preparation.

For me, Tom’s Table has become the ultimate Sunday destination. After a long walk around the beautiful Ribble Valley, there’s no better place to relax and enjoy an exceptional meal. If you’re looking for somewhere to treat yourself to an unforgettable dining experience, this is the...

Tom’s Table catered for mine and my husbands wedding at The Out Barn in Clitheroe last week and we can noooot thank them enough for the outstanding food and service they have shown us over the last few months. We were invited to their restaurant for a taster meal on them to sample our canapés and meal choices and they were just all soooo delicious. We chose their Ribble Valley blade of beef as our wedding breakfast main and it was just 1000000/10 chefs kiss! Hiiiiighly recommend this it was literally falling apart and just sooo perfect. Everything was just perfect, perfect, perfect. The mushroom arrancini balls during our drinks reception were just insane everyone was going back for more my brother and sister in law were finding different waiters to get them from and my friend ate 10!!!!!! From the moment we booked we knew we’re in safe hands with Tom’s Table. I honestly can’t recommend them enough both their restaurant and catering service just all absolutely stunning.
