Some of the nice things our customers have said about Artisan.

Cafe Artisan has a lovely relaxed atmosphere, great coffee and tasty well priced selection of sandwiches, paninis, and larger meals.
Its also kid friendly, with a good healthy choice of sandwiches, homemade sausage & mash smiley faces and toys/books to keep them occupied.

I used to live in Rossendale, but I now live and work away, I was home a couple of months ago and Cafe Artisan is the best place in Rossendale, nice to visit, relaxed and nothing is wrong, food, atmosphere, drinks all very good, cant say anything bad, traveled the world and never thought I would see a place like this in Rossendale. All the best to the owners and staff, keep up the good work. Si

By far the best bar in Rawtenstall - once inside, you would think you were in an upper-class, trendy Manchester establishment. The drinks are a little bit more pricey than the usual “run-of-the-mill” watering holes in the town, but this is far in excess of “run-of-the-mill” and well worth paying the extra money for. However, when compared with similar type venues in other, larger towns and cities, the prices appear average. The food is great too, with a good selection - the wedges and dips are my top tip! The atmosphere is fantastic - there is a great vibe about the place. The music is loud, but not too loud so that you cannot hold a conversation. There is comfortable seating too, which is just a great bonus and helps you to relax. On summer days, when the sun is cracking the flags, there are numerous tables to the front of the bar - actually outside on a small patio area - the perfect place to sit with a chilled bottle of wine or a cold pint of Peroni on a hot summers evening. The staff are always very accommodating, and not once have they attempted to hurry us out the door after having consumed food and drinks. The staff are always friendly and chatting - despite being (usually) run off their feet. Overall, the best place in town!

This lovely bar with mezzanine has turned around the fortunes of those of us that want a bit of chilled out space in town. The couple who run it are great, the staff are friendly and the choice of drinks really good. Tim makes all his own vodka shots, the chilli one being the best. Food is good, even for veggies.

How refreshing to stumble across such an inviting eatery, which manages to achieve an effortless balance of cool overtones, excellent fresh food, welcoming staff and a reassuring lack of pretension. I firmly recommend this to fellow discerning customers in search of the perfect cafe bar.

A real gem! Lovely interior, very friendly, helpful staff. Menu has lots of choices all of which sound so tempting it was hard to know what to pick. The food is really fresh and the ingredients are the quality you would buy for yourself and family, rather than the cheaper catering alternatives which so many places serve up. I would recommend with confidence to anyone.
