👍👍 Zanete was so helpful when planning the buffet for my birthday party. Its a great room, nicely decorated with plenty of seating. We were lucky with the weather and able to sit on the outside decking, again plenty of seating. Great atmosphere and all staff friendly and helpful. The buffet was delicio... People often mention staff, great, good, party, Great, nice,

    Zanete was so helpful when planning the buffet for my birthday party. Its a great room, nicely decorated with plenty of seating. We were lucky with the weather and able to sit on the outside decking, again plenty of seating. Great atmosphere and all staff friendly and helpful. The buffet was delicious, everyone commented how tasty it was. Thank Zanete for all your help.

    Barman very helpful and pleasant, popped in for a drink after the Sale FC rugby as we knew we'd get a seat and pub would be nice and quiet, we would have stayed for another drink but someone unleashed some very, very noisy children and made it into a creche. Therefore we didn't stay for another.

    Haven't seen this pub busy but the beer was a reasonable price and it is quite big inside with a jukebox and lots of seating including comfy couches. Shame its usually less busy. Would reccomend if it was busier more often

    Nicely decorated, looks good. No good if you like ale though as there isn't any. Boddies keg !!! , keg IPA and that's it. Seven lagers though if that floats your boat. Not planning on coming back, shame really as otherwise seems fine.

    It was at a private 18th birthday party, it was all laid out great to accommodate the party and the football match.

    I held my Birthday party at the Tap recently and everything was fantastic. It's a great space for a party, and Zanete and her team helped arrange everything we needed and were great hosts on the night - lots of compliments from other guests. Definitely recommended.

    Received a Parking ticket despite taking 5 paying customers there and then the pub refused to assist in overturning it. Totally unfair to allow paying customers to receive parking tickets whilst at the establishment - especially when parking in the dark and in awful weather.

    We recently held our sons 21st party there and the whole night was fantastic, the bar staff were friendly and very helpful, the room was made available to us to set up that day and was a perfect venue. Id definitely recommend the Brooklands Tap to anyone, thanks again for all your help to all the staff there, we'll definitely see you again soon Mick Higgins

    I recently celebrated my birthday at The Brooklands Tap, and I must say it was a truly delightful experience. The staff at this establishment were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making me and my guests feel warmly welcomed from the moment we arrived. Their attentive service and genuine hospitality added a special touch to the occasion, creating a memorable atmosphere for the celebration. The Brooklands Tap proved to be an excellent choice for hosting my birthday, and I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a friendly and enjoyable venue for their special events.

    Held an event at the Brooklands Tap in July 2021 and it was absolutely perfect! The venue is a great size, nicely decorated and drinks were good prices. The best thing by far was the staff - in the lead up to the event the Landlady was in touch to discuss what we had planned and she made everything so easy. They were really accommodating and flexible with room setup and arrangements and put some lovely touches on the day with a personalised sign for the event! The staff were incredibly keen to help on the night and could not do enough for us - great attitude and really helped with the vibe!! Would massively recommend for anyone planning an event or just looking for somewhere good for some relaxed drinks!

    Green King isn't normally a good start but when cask ales advertised on the door but nothing just further disappointment. Overall more of a lager focused venue.

  • 5/5 Daniel K. 2 years ago on Google
    Been twice recently with friends. I've lived in Sale for year's but never been here. Didn't need to book or anything we just sat in one of the lounge areas outside and waited for a bartender to arrive to ask our orders. We paid upfront and drinks were delivered promptly in clean glasses and cold. There was some language barrier with some of the staff but we got our orders so we were happy and weren't bothered. Will come again sometime.

    Really nice pub, like a pub of two halves with a lounge style on one side and public bar style that opens out to a terrace with open and covered seating Came here to watch the footie, well run decent pub with very cool quirky toilet decor. Worth a visit.
