Harden's survey result
Summary
“Great food and also a sense that they are putting back into the community” inspires support for this pub-with-rooms on the village green. Run as a youth-focused social enterprise, supporting young people to access training and paid work experience, it has won a string of awards over its almost ten years in operation. In summer, its ‘Incredible Edible Beer Garden’ comes into its own: almost an acre in size and with lots of interest as well as outside seating.
Summary
On the outskirts of Ramsbottom, this small inn on the village green was recently well-renovated and has a “good beer garden”. “Any lack of polish service-wise is compensated for by the staff’s enthusiasm and willingness”. “Good quality, traditional British food, with regional variations, and some home-grown vegetables, works well”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).

Eagle & Child Restaurant Diner Reviews
"Quite exceptional in so many ways They take their whole business seriously, from the venue, greeting, the food and its mission to help youngsters into catering. The location is lovely, looking over a valley. The restaurant is to the side of a very busy popular pub. Nice varied menu, but on the specials were some exceptional dishes. I started with the smoked duck and Rhubarb, an exceptional and unusual combination that was superb. My main was a beef cheeks plate of perfection. My dessert was a beautifully presented chocolate fondant with ice cream. The food is not only perfectly cooked and flavoured but also presented to impress. My partner was hugely impressed with her food too. Everything about the venue shouts attention to detail. Staff are young and very attentive but absolutely not intrusive. Got to meet a delightful, passionate chef clearly committed to his work. Toilets clean and well presented. I am no stranger to restaurants, visiting 3 michelin star venues to cafes this was quite exceptional and really needs visiting."
"A local staple, in stunning semi rural surroundings, serving solid food for reasonable prices with great service. "
