Bar & Kitchen at The Whitaker is Rossendale’s hidden gem, relaunched with a brand-new menu for Summer 2022.

Perfect for coffee, cake and a catch-up, a weekend brunch with friends, cocktails on the terrace or a relaxed Sunday Roast, we also have live music, film screenings and much more too.

We cater for special occasions too – birthdays, baby showers, weddings, and much more. If you want to learn more, don’t hesitate to ask our friendly team for more information.

Food and Drink

Table service for both food and drinks in the Bar & Kitchen, we recommend booking as we can’t guarantee tables will be available.

Special Diets / Allergens

We cannot guarantee that any of our dishes on our menu are totally free from nuts, nut derivatives or other ingredients to which guests may have a serious allergic reaction as we cannot operate in a nut free environment. We would therefore advise guests with a severe allergy to nuts or other ingredients to talk to us directly so that we can make arrangements and suggest alternatives for a meal that would accommodate their requirements.
