The Drop Off Cafe - Rossendale

A lovely warm space, very friendly. I was on my own and was made to feel very welcome. I will be back as there is so much going on.

This is an absolute gem of a place. The atmosphere, staff, service and food are excellent. Highly recommended place to visit for food.

We have always had good things to say about the Drop Off, but I got a bit fed up of trying to work out when it was open. Anyway, decided to give it another chance and thought we were safe when they posted on Facebook on a Wednesday that they were open until 9pm. We went about 5pm and the staff were sitting outside. One of them said they were closed. It’s interesting because I’ve since told two local people we were going to go and both have then said “It’s never open so I don’t bother any more.” Such a wasted opportunity. In these times, people give businesses very few chances. It seems they posted on Facebook thinking it was Thursday. They need to do better if they want support.

Food was very poor, had the breakfast. Burn to a crisp bacon (about half a rasher) under cooked sausages, definitely not an £11 breakfast, unfortunately won’t return. But a nice place and staff are attentive

Went for lunch and it was a bit good and not quite so good. Firstly the good the salt and pepper chips are amazing. The staff are very pleasant and helpful though the service can be a bit slow. The tandoori chicken naan wasn't quite so great. Whilst thighs tend to be tastier the skin was quite fatty and it wasn't massive on flavour, and my wife only had 2 pieces of chicken. At £10.50 I thought it was a bit overpriced £9 would have been fairer but I can understand in the current climate. My daughter loved her falafel naan however and said it was very tasty. Overall about 7.5 out of 10. Worth a visit for the chips and the pleasant staff if nothing else.
