You can get ripped off anywhere, the answer is, if you don't like it, don't go back and tell all your friends!

In total agreement Pendy, there are lots of places to eat out that are quite reasonably priced. People assume that certain places are expensive so never actually enquire as to the cost and thus miss out. Heathcotes is a superb restaurant, having eaten there on many occasions i cannot fault it at all. If you can get there during the day sometime they often have offers on that cannot be beaten and compare in price to most 3 course pub lunches. Also Nutters over Owd Betts is worth a try.
For simpler food Fishermans Retreat on Edenfield Road, SparrowHawk Inn, Fence and for really cheap cheerful value for money The Brown Cow on Haslingden Old Road.
