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.
