2 for 1 at The Waterside Bar & Restaurant

The Waterside Bar and Restaurant is nestled in the heart of the Pennines.

The venue is fantastic, with beautiful views of the surrounding Littleborough countryside, newly refurbished Rochdale canal and a small walk from the scenic Hollingworth Lake.

The ambience is relaxed and Continental. Using only the finest ingredients and produce, Lisa and Kristan have combined traditional cooking with a passion for Mediterranean and Continental cuisine, creating exciting and extensive varied menus, from Lunchtime to A'la Carte, from snacks to full meals, from fish to meat, and introducing their new Vegetarian Menu.

There is plenty to choose from and enjoy for everyone, and with the extra sun in summer, why not try the gorgeous Mediterranean garden and bask in the sun, enjoying al fresco dining and barbecue lunches and evenings.

There is plenty of room in the 50-52 seated dining area and with the fantastic addition of the high backed leather booths.

The restaurant portrays an intimate and relaxed lounge feel with a comfortable sofa seating area for drinks on arrival or just to socialise with friends and family.

Important Information

Please note : Not available on Sunday due to the kitchen only running a set lunch menu. Only 1 tastecard can be used per group or booking, tables cannot be split to accommodate more tastecards, please do not ask the restaurant to do this as the request will be refused.
