    Ok, yes it’s Vegan, but don’t think for a second about that part, or let it put you off going or you’ll be missing out! Drinks and food were truly amazing and having a family owned local business with such amazing tasting recipes is a true boon for Great Harwood’s growing scene! Coffees and smoothies are all amazing, with some cute music themed names. My 24 CARROT drink was great! Food was well portioned and honestly some of the best brekkie food I’ve ever eaten all for super reasonable prices. Keep up the solid work peeps!

    Holy Cannoli is a gem of a place. Called for lunch after wanting to visit for ages as I had been following them on social media. The 100% vegan menu has something for everyone, with a great selection of cakes and pastries in the display cabinet. We had roasted tomatoes with cannellini bean pate on toast and a breakfast stack, teas and sparkling water, followed by a lemon cannoli and black forest tiffin with two espressos. The food was scrumptious, well cooked, beautifully presented and we left clean plates and the cakes were faultless as was the coffee. Holy Cannoli is owned by Rachel who gave us a warm welcome and her dad is chef, so this is a family run business and one I will be supporting in future. Highly recommended.

    On my weekly road trip with my mum we discovered this little gem in Great Harwood, the award winning Holy Cannoli. It's a lovely family run business. A very tasty plant based menu. Daughter came up with the concept, mum makes the cakes and dad the mains. We'll be sure to visit again. Great place, great menu, great people.

    Fabulous cafe to add to Great Harwood's ever expanding range of independents. We called in for a coffee and tried the cannoli and cinammon swirls. Absoulutely delicious food and coffee, very reasonable prices and friendly service. I can see us becoming regulars.

    UPDATE: still obsessed. The new wine menu is amazing! Nice to see some different wines offered. The food is incredible as always and staff always remember you which is nice. Went here for brunch today, I have been for food before and also to grab some sweets to go. It was as lovely as always! We didn’t book however shown to a lovely table with a smile where the seats were very comfy and inviting. We went for the Beijing Burger and the Mushrooms on Toast. The burger was lovely, came with sriracha slaw and some excellent chippy-style curry sauce with some salt n pepper wedges which complemented each other very well. So tasty! The Mushrooms were perfectly cooked and a nice portion, the bread was fresh and filling and didn’t go soggy like some places that make a similar dish. The coffees were excellent too, highly recommend the Mocha, one of the best I have tried. The food doesn’t taste fake, it’s not trying to be overly fancy like some places do. It’s good, hearty and fresh tasting and almost gave you a beautifully home cooked food experience! I think this is family-run which just added to the lovely atmosphere. It is always refreshing visiting a restaurant that not only wants but also appreciates your custom. The appreciation was very much mutual and we will definitely be back again! 10/10! Thank you to all the staff! As a side note, the food was very reasonably priced! No complaints if I tried. 👍🏻🤩

    We have had a number of celebration cakes from Holy Cannoli and this weekend’s cake for my son was yet another triumph. Absolutely delicious, iced and decorated to perfection with a Gruffalo theme. The marshmallow fairy toadstools were a huge hit with the little ones and any remaining cake was quickly swiped by the adults! As an allergy parent, the fact that all of their cakes are vegan means that I can relax knowing that their bakes are milk free too. I can’t recommend this local gem enough. Thank you Holy Cannoli!

    We visit regularly and the service is always brilliant and very friendly. The food is incredible, we always really enjoy it no matter what we choose from the menu. The menu is regularly updated to keep it interesting. Lovely to see a completely plant based business thriving. I never hesitate to recommend Holy Cannoli if someone is looking for somewhere to eat in Great Harwood.

    We’ve enjoyed many visits to Holy Cannoli as a family and when my daughter asked to celebrate her 5th birthday there (in the school hols) they did not hesitate to book it in the diary. She requested a unicorn afternoon tea (their Easter one was fabulous!) and decorated the table, put out craft items and also a gift. My daughter was absolutely delighted and as ever the food was delicious. My non vegan relatives also made a surprise appearance and said the atmosphere and food was spectacular. I would absolutely recommend a trip here and my husband, a keen cyclist will be making the most out of their new outdoor area. Service is enough to visit and the food will NOT disappoint.

    Excellent little vegan cafe! Myself and my partner went mid week on a Wednesday, and both had the breakfast there. Loved the presentation of the breakfast, and it tasted amazing 😁👌🏻💯 We purchased a slice each of their carrot cake to take home, which was well... Oh, my days INCREDIBLE! We loved the atmosphere about the place with many indoor plants and beautiful decor. We're planning to return very soon to try more of their options. 😁🌱 Highly recommended 👌🏻

    There's nowhere better in the area for a brunch. The coffee is delicious. The menu is seasonal and exciting. The bathroom is absolutely spotless and a joy to use. And all the staff are lovely. It's an easy 5 stars for Holy Cannoli.

    What a little gem this place is. One of our favourite things to do is go out for breakfast, but this has become increasingly difficult since hubby was diagnosed with a lactose allergy. So great here knowing that he has the choice of the whole menu, rather than the one or two options available at other places which don't include dairy. And to top it off, the food is absolutely delicious! The staff are all so friendly and provide brilliant service. Thanks to the HC team- we'll definitely be back!

    This needs more than 5 stars. Visited today with family as had an appointment in the area.The owner and staff were very lovely and welcoming. The menu looked amazing but unfortunately we only had time for coffee and freshly made cinnamon rolls, yum. The open plan kitchen and seating areas were immaculate and so was the rest room. 5 ***** Will be visiting again when back in the area (wedding dress shopping/fittings) Keep up the good work and good luck for your futures x

    I don't think I can say enough good things about this place! First of all the atmosphere is lovely, the decor is so pretty and it was a nice place to be. The staff were so polite, friendly and accommodating. We were seated almost immediately (the fresh water on the table is a lovely addition!) and we were attended to very quickly. I had the avocado toast with a berry beret smoothie and both were delicious! The portion sizes were great and everything tasted super fresh! A fantastic visit, I will definitely be returning 🥰

    Bland, dry, food is NOT SOMETHING YOU WILL GET HERE! Now, I know what you’re thinking: it’s vegan so it must be dry or all lettuce, but that couldn’t be farther from the truth. They have the best cinnamon buns I’ve ever had in my life! I'm not joking when I say they are the best. They are just the right balance between fluffy and bread like. And the taste is the perfect level of sweet and spice. I got two just to make sure! Not only is the food great, but so was the tea to match. I had a cup of loose-leaf chai that tasted like I just sailed to India: aromatic, spicy, and warm with just the right level of sweet. Holy Cannoli are these guys welcoming too. The moment you walk in, you’re family. The staff have a smile as part of the uniform and there’s not a speck of dust or dirt anywhere. Holy Cannoli has a bright future ahead of it and I know no other cinnamon buns will ever taste as good.

    First time visiting and loved it. The staff were absolutely lovely and very friendly. The food was amazing, we got the mushroom bruschetta and the hash brown stack so we could share between us and try both dishes. The portions were just right and delicious. Would definitely recommend .
