This neighbourhood pub’s menus cover everything from bar nibbles to pub classics; they offer lunch, afternoon tea and dinner – and even serve breakfast on Sundays. The endearing team take care in everything they do, portions are generous, and dishes not only look good but taste good too. The traditional Lancashire cheese, onion and ale pie is a must-try.

There's a traditional, homely feel to this laid-back pub where you're guaranteed a jolly atmosphere and a proper pint. In fact, it's rare to find somewhere this relaxing that serves food quite this good. The set menu allows the kitchen to concentrate on delivering unpretentious yet refined dishes from small batches of top-quality local and seasonal produce. The likes of organic chicken with morels, white asparagus and wild garlic are prime examples, showcasing impressive classical technique and providing delicious depth of flavour.

After making a name for himself at various pop-ups and events, Chef Joe McLeod took over The Spread Eagle pub in this Lancashire village. While it retains its role as the village local, the cooking is now far removed from your usual pub cuisine. Choose between an à la carte or the popular monthly changing tasting menu, both of which showcase robust, colourful dishes with generosity in size and flavour. The homemade bread rolls topped with sticky lamb reduction are a real treat to start. The enthusiastic team offer the kind of charming service that stays in the memory.

Tucked away down a narrow lane in the heart of the Ribble Valley, this delightful pub is as characterful inside as it is from the exterior. Cosy and welcoming, the whole place exudes a rustic charm thanks to an open fire and antique furnishings. The modern British dishes use the best of the local larder and deliver bold, well-judged flavours in adventurous, original creations like the 'Malteser' dessert. For the ultimate experience, book the "Chef's Bench", which consists of just four seats in the heart of the kitchen. Make a night of it and stay over in one of the bedrooms too.

Chef Nigel Haworth has always been a strong ambassador for Lancashire produce – particularly from the Ribble Valley – and now has his own vegetable garden and polytunnel at this contemporary dining pub. The à la carte might include such unpretentious options as tempura scallops or flavoursome corn fed chicken; there's also a seasonal set menu available in 5 or 8 courses, bookended by cheese rolls and mini Eccles cakes – which have rightly become restaurant staples.

On the ground floor of the Winckley Stays Hotel, you’ll find this sweet restaurant where an open fire greets you on arrival in the colder months. There’s a cosy feel to the room, which is minimally decorated but enlivened by some bright artwork on the walls. The cooking takes the form of a seasonal tasting menu, with dishes like duck leg suet pudding delivering intense flavours. Friendly, efficient service enhances the experience, as does the choice between two wine flights and even a beer pairing.
