Treacle-glazed pig's cheeks and a Lancashire cheese soufflé anchor the menu at this smartly refurbished gastropub in a small Ribble Valley village, ranked in the UK's Top 50 Gastropubs. The cosy bar handles a quiet pint just fine, while the bright orangery dining room is where the kitchen gets serious: full-flavoured, unfussy cooking built on well-sourced produce. The Den fits ten for a more private meal, and Sunday lunch runs to curried goat pie for anyone bored of the usual.
