The Waterside Restaurant Garden & Cabin
1 Inghams Ln, LittleboroughVisited here for Sunday lunch and the moment we arrived we felt very welcomed. The staff & service remained excellent throughout. The Sunday lunch was incredible- one of the best I’ve had in a long time! The restaurant and outdoor area was very nicely designed.

Bake 'N' Butty
90 New Rd, LittleboroughHas to be one of the best cafes we have tried without a doubt. Very tasty food, nice and clean inside and the staff are happy and welcoming. Highly recommend. Gutted we could only try it while working in the area and that it's not closer to home.

The White House
Blackstone Edge, Halifax Rd, LittleboroughA great little pub with excellent food and friendly service. It was a busy lunchtime but we were able to get a table and the food came quickly. Excellent light roast beef along with homemade leek and potato soup, really tasty and good value for money.

The Rake Tapas
Blackstone Edge Rd, LittleboroughSuch an unsung eatery tucked away at the foothills of the Pennines. You will be fed like Royalty and have to be rolled home. The Mussels are devastatingly good (ruined now) and the creamy, garlic mushrooms would have you licking the plate. The wine list reflects the menu exceptionally well and would be a place to pitch up for a wine and cheese evening, any day of the week. A building with over 400 years history and still providing a warm welcome for passing trade as well as regular locals. Compliments to the Chef for our food on 2nd April 2025. We will return. Great food, great value for money and deserves 5 stars on any guide book.

Hare on the Hill
132 Hare Hill Rd, LittleboroughWell worth the short walk from the town centre to this fine micro bar which is also an Untappd Verified Venue. They’ve nailed it with modern, classic cask ales - Vocation Bread & Butter, Cloudwater Happy to name just two. The beer garden with its chalets look amazing.
The photos in the digital Good Beer Guide certainly do not do this bar justice.

Bay of Bengal
Todmorden Rd, LittleboroughFood quality faultless!. The menu has changed completely from our last visit, less variety looks more like a typical straight forward Indian menu? yet, we rate this as one of two restaurants we're happy to visit in the area. Where we live outside of Leeds, we're offered nothing of an equivalent. The food is great!, we loved it even though the menu is a disappointment....don't know if the establishment is under new ownership/staff, dining in under bright lights?, interior needs a re-think. Parking is non existant/impossible outside the premises. Lots of issues that need to be addressed because whats being eaten there, beats the pants off loads of other places, and that is the truth!

The Red Lion
6 Halifax Rd, LittleboroughUsed to be a farmhouse in 1800s. Possibly last time it was decorated! But somehow this just adds to the character of the place. We were made very welcome by staff and customers alike. Place was filled with dogs and the beauty of the worn and torn seating was they were allowed on the seats. ?5 rooms with tv and comfy sofa in one, pool table in another Impressive range of beers, lagers, ciders and a choice of zero alcohol on tap as well. I had Red Lion bitter which was really nice and Hobgoblin Stout. Don’t seem to do food ; it’s all about the beer. Don’t change a thing; just right. Thanks

Chippy Licious
36 Church St, LittleboroughFor the longest time, we looked for a decent chippy, then we tried Chippy Licious and we never looked back. The food is amazing and they really put themselves out to help. Coming from the Sarf originally, I love rock eel, which isn't usually served up here. I asked Bran, and he got it, saveloys too!!
Give em a try, you won't be disappointed. ??

Falcon Inn
18-20 Church St, LittleboroughA bit of an old fashioned boozer, which I quite like. Not a lot of choice on tap though. Everyone there was on lager, including me - which I’m not a huge fan of. But not much to complain about.

The Moorcock Inn
Halifax Rd, LittleboroughI haven't stayed here, but came for a meal recently with friends and we thought it was excellent. The staff were nice, service was quick and it was a good looking place. The food was excellent, fairly priced and a fab menu with plenty of choice. Quick service and generous portions too!
The only negative was that my friend booked it following their website saying they were dog friendly. However, the restaurant isn't. They were still able to accommodate us, and I am supportive of the restaurant not taking dogs, this just needs to be made clearer when booking. I'll be back soon.

New Diamond
58 New Rd, LittleboroughGreat vegetarian options and really helpful with our questions about gluten free items (I know, we're picky).
Vegetarian options: Great selection of tofu, mock-meats etc. If you're not sure, just ask as they're so helpful.
Dietary restrictions: Very helpful with our questions about gluten free items. It does limit the menu (soy sauce causes a few issues!) but I always appreciate an honest answer.

The Queens
57 Church St, LittleboroughA locals pub, right in the centre of Littleborough. Many friendly faces stroll here for a good old fashioned evening out with friends and neighbours. There's a short range of good ales, many shorts and lagers to go at. A pool table sits at the back to cover those with sporty credentials. The floor is flagged, uneven, and fabulous.

Littleborough Balti Taste
62-64 Smithy Bridge Rd, LittleboroughThis place is a short walk away from Hollingsworth Lake, meaning that i can get food from here whilst enjoying the views. I came with family today and decided to try food from here, it was 10/10 I will most definitely get it again when in the area again. If you haven't tried food here i recommend for you to go they serve amazing food. Thank you so much for your service.

Butterbean Sandwich Bar
72 Church St, LittleboroughQuality food every time. I've been going here for 12 months now since moving into the Borough, and I've not been disappointed once.
Always happy to make off the menu like my 5 egg scrambled eggs and beans ?
But you seriously need to try their club sandwich. Spot on butty, a go too for my lunch.
Great food and great service. Best of all, they deliver so brilliant for the weekend bed orders.

Omar Sharif's
75 Church St, LittleboroughCan do a good meaty box sometimes does doner meat chunks not strips and maybe some soggy chips, I’ve been very disappointed in the past but the meaty box was the right choice. Good combo of chips burger and doner meat. It can come with sauce and salt (not all the time) so a good surprise awaits. Comes with pepsi although once it didn’t so just don’t have high expectations. Yours truly the takeaway connoisseur…Kid-friendliness: Idk

The Olive & Pickle
23 Lake Bank, LittleboroughHad the most delicious lunch there today. Very reasonable prices, for the quality of the food. The owner and staff were so accommodating, even though it was Mother's Day and we didn't have a reservation. We were a group of 3 adults, 1 baby and a small dog . It's such a warm inviting ambience. Staff were always smiling, even though they were rushed off their feet. Highly recommend this lovely restaurant. We so look forward to returning in the very near future.
