THE PLATE CELEBRATES HIGHEST QUALITY ASSURANCE AWARD

Staff at The Plate café bar at Backridge Farm, near Waddington have been celebrating after being awarded the Highest Quality Assurance from Taste Lancashire.

Taste Lancashire is a quality award for places to eat developed by Lancashire and Blackpool Tourist Board. All aspects of the business are assessed from the welcome and service to food quality and the use of local produce.

The Plate serves a truly traditional English menu with a modern twist, and it goes without saying the provenance of all the ingredients is guaranteed .

Commenting on the awarding of the Taste Lancashire accreditation, owner Richard Drinkall said, “Receiving this accreditation is certainly the icing on the cake for us and we're extremely pleased to have achieved 86% which places us in the highest quality category.

“Our chef Brian and front of house manager Dinnoo have worked extremely hard over the last two years to ensure that we not only source our ingredients from local producers and suppliers, but provide a first class customer experience the minute they walk in the door, which has customers returning again and again.”

The spacious, open plan informal café bar was converted from a former working barn and features a contemporary mezzanine, exposed stone walls and oak beamed ceiling. It is open Tuesday to Thursday 9am – 4pm and Friday to Sunday 9am – 5pm.
