    Chaos, under new management. You shouldn't open your doors if staff training and procedures are not in place. We ordered, received no food for over an hour, when it came the standard was so bad we decided to leave. The management did not charge us for food or drinks.

    I think it was great!!!, Being in the grill place as a family get together for a buffet, I loved it. The chips were great and so were the chicken. Quite salty but I loved it all, especially the coke cola it was PERFECT! 🤤❤️❤️❤️😍😍🤩😁 AND there was nothing wrong with any of it. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

    My friend & I enjoyed a tasty well cooked meal but it was chosen from a scruffy food splattered menu. Would it not be a good idea, certainly in the current climate, to spend a few pounds & laminate the menus so they can be wiped clean after use? Also, there was an horrendous stain on the carpet which I'm sure was there last time I visited several years ago. Just a few little edges which need tidying up bit wouldn't stop me from eating there again.

    No food here for months. Football matchs shown here. John Smith bitter? £3.60 a pint

    The food was great. I love Italian food and it’s not often you get authentic Italian cooking at such a reasonable price.

    In for the Manchester Derby. The free food at half time from the landlady was quickly snaffled, and greatfully appreciated! Bigger TVs needed and more chairs - but let's not be too picky when United win and City lose

    Used to be a sound pub before it changed hands, since then younger staff are sound but older ones have a terrible attitude with customers, wont be going back.

    The place is an absolute mess at the moment with the temporary owners. It's run down and unclean, the toilets stank of pure amonia. Lets hope it gets bette after some money is spent on it by permanent owners

    Outside looks nothing special, inside I was really surprised was just passing and had to check it out the guy behind the bar seem friendly enough but seemed like he didn’t want to be there . Limited open times? This place would be fantastic for sports and food - get the outside looking nice and your onto something special

    Very nice meal for 8 of us. No complaints.Wine very palatable also. It was a Saturday night and very busy.Service excellent.
  • 2/5 Ben U. 2 years ago on Google
    Limited selection of drinks on tap & in the fridge. Food choices are pretty standard for this type of place (see website), and hardly inspirational whilst being expensive. Atmosphere is generally subdued even though it's normally fairly busy. Too soulless to be a decent local, which is a shame as the area could do with one. Not one to bother with, unfortunately.

    I visited for the first time in 20 years and was very pleased with the restaurant and fun friendly atmosphere. Fantastic customer service and fabulous pizza. Me and my friend shared the Thornberries Special Pizza with chunky chips. Plenty for two people and was delicious and the bill was surprisingly reasonable. Definitely will visit again.

    A Decent boozer to visit sells nice food but a bit on the pricey side.
  • 4/5 Jeremy S. 5 years ago on Google
    This pub has just been done up and it looks nice although a little bland. Could maybe use a few pictures on the walls or something to break it up. Doom Bar on draft and it was well kept and delicious. Barmaid was very friendly. They were just opening the restaurant the night we called but we weren't stopping so never tried the food. They have installed a large pizza oven so we will definately be back to try that. Hope it all works out.

😠 You end up STINCKING of the kitchen when you eat in. Food was warm at best , go to the white heart just up the road. Same menu but I promise you the food is SO SO much better. This place the beers dear, the foods not good and the staff have attitudes. Avoid 2/10
