With access to panoramic views of Pendle Hill, and a range of seasonal menus, created and tailored by our Chef Patron, Doug Crampton, Eight at Gazegill is the epitome of a 'farm-to-fork' restaurant, being owned by and located directly on a working organic farm, Gazegill Organics, in the Ribble Valley.
Showcasing the best of the produce from the farm, which includes organic slow-reared pork and raw milk, and utilising the seasonal bounty that can be found in the surrounding hedgerows and countryside, Eight at Gazegill reconnects guests to nature through the food.
Our Brunch, All-Day and Sunday Lunch menus are suitable for all, while our Friday and Saturday evening Tasting Menu offers a more grown up experience. We also have specifically designed menus which are suitable to be eaten on our outside terrace area where the addition of a large purpose-built playground makes this the perfect location for families to enjoy the sunshine.
Join us for an exclusive two-night culinary event, "Masters of the Kitchen" where our esteemed Chef Patron Doug Crampton, collaborates with celebrated MasterChef: The Professionals 2024 Winner, Dan Merriman. This unique collaboration brings together two culinary talents, blending bold, inventive flavours with refined techniques. Guests will enjoy a meticulously curated banquet-style menu, crafted to showcase the creativity, passion, and mastery of both chefs. Each dish tells a story, reflecting their culinary journeys and shared commitment to excellence.
With limited seats available and high demand expected, booking is essential. Don’t miss your chance to savour this extraordinary fusion of talent—reserve your place now for an unforgettable dining experience!

Really enjoyed the food and service.
Could not fault anything, didn’t get offered dessert or coffee. Even though we were full from the starter and main course, it would have been nice to have been asked. But we are being hyper critical.
We will defo be back, it’s great food, service and value.
Looking forward to the summer to see what they have to offer

The food and ambiance are fantastic. The only reason I didn’t give five stars on everything was I think the red wine was very expensive for a glass
