The Rake Mediterranean Tapas Restaurant

About

The Rake Mediterranean Tapas Restaurant sits in a 16th‑century building that has earned its name over four centuries of local lore, from wartime whispers of a Home Guard cellar to ghostly tales of a smiling cavalier. Located on Blackstone Edge Old Road just off the A58, the venue combines a lively tapas bar with four elegant rooms that feature period timber and stonework, modern furnishings, and a private outdoor area for guests. The menu bursts with fresh, seasonal ingredients—fish, local meat, cheese, and a range of vegetarian and gluten‑free options—crafted into classic Spanish tapas and Mediterranean dishes that come straight from the family kitchen. Guests can enjoy a relaxed, family‑friendly atmosphere by day and late‑night dining thereafter. With easy access from the Littleborough Railway Station, the venue is a popular stop for locals and visitors alike. Enjoy a cozy meal or a comfortable stay in a historic setting that blends old‑world charm with contemporary comfort.
