On the morning of the 4th of July, The Venetian in Ramsbottom suffered a devastating fire which ripped the heart out of the restaurant. I wrote about it on the day it happened and managed to catch up with Paolo yesterday to see how things are getting on and what the plan is for the future.

This week in Ramsbottom we’ve had some drama on Tanners Street with the road opening up and threatening to swallow anything that wants to get anywhere too close to it. Yes, we had a sinkhole on Tanners.
Thankfully the “Road Closed” signs were obeyed and cars used alternative routes… Well, of course not, people were still driving up and around Tanners bringing with it more risk to the road and safety of others.
That road is a nightmare at the best of times. It’s a 20Mph road with people flying past like they’re at Silverstone, some people really need to consider other people at times. I’m glad we didn’t move onto that road, we had looked at a house on Tanners at the time, the house was lovely but with a young child I really didn’t like how busy the road was right outside the door.
Hopefully the road works are completed soon but currently it looks like it’s going to be well over a week before it gets completed.

On December the 1st, a new Pizza place came into town with both a pickup and delivery option. (delivery only available for orders over £15 which I didn’t notice but to be fair is stated at the bottom of the menu on the website)

Ramsbottom, has in recent years became the unexpected foodies destination of choice for the North. With it’s short drive down the M66 and tucked away in the valley recess of Holcombe Hill, Ramsbottom has gone through many facelifts, but it’s current trend has people drooling over the options.
With around 20 restaurants in the heart of Ramsbottom alone, an area less than 0.08 square miles, it’s made very easy for customers who are able to go from restaurant to bar in a moment, even if braving some of the hills on a full stomach could be a challenge. As most restaurants in Ramsbottom are licensed though, you can have a drink at the bar until you feel a little more balanced, or not, as the case may be.
