Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Outstanding food and brilliant service. As a group we ordered every small plate dish off the menu. Each dish was delicious, the quality was exceptional and there's lots of variety to choose from. Lucy, our waitress was wonderful, attentive, funny and nothing was too much...trouble! You must go!More

Cozy pub with a warm friendly atmosphere, food was certainly quality although not quite quantity. I would most definitely return in the future to sample the weekly menu as we visited on a Sunday

We found out about Holcombe Tap by chance and spotted it on our way into Ramsbottom. The place is warm and cosy with a nice fire and beautiful decorations. Food was special, never had fried olives before and the chips with Parmisan exceptional. Service was...spot on, especially Lucy who looked after us.More

Love the new menu, excellent as usual. Difficult to decide which dish was best; the king prawns being there didn’t make it any easier. Staff friendly and attentive (as usual).

Came in as a walk in for some lunch and a few drinks. Lucy was very accommodating, offering us a table in the bar (due to having the dog). She was lovely, friendly and very professional. I felt like nothing was too much trouble, she...mad a fussed of my dog Ralph which he loved! The food was amazing! Will come back again. Overall amazing 🤩More
