During our visit a few things went wrong but to be fair their Staff are brilliant, especially the supervisor Lee. We ordered food which was ok, one of the items wasn't available but they took for it at the bar. Lee came over, explained and offered us an alternative from the same starters menu section, lots of choice but nothing my hubby wanted so she refunded us straight away. Really well mannered and fun. Kids loved her dancing with them when she was collecting glasses and she fixed the machine when it didn't give our son his sweets. Has an arcade and a big pick and mix machine in the pub so brilliant for the kids. When our food came the chef had done us extra on one starter to make up for what they didn't have, you don't get that many places. Delicious meal and a big difference between now and a year ago.

Being good at pool/snooker is said to be testimony to a misspent youth. Clearly I'm an angel, if my…read morehit-and-miss form is anything to go by. But where better to seven-ball your brother, or completely miscue and hit the white off the table towards your fourth pint, than Rileys. I could easily spend a weekend here, shooting pool and sinking beer, if my puny bank balance would allow. There's an array of pool tables, and a few snooker tables for the hardcore, to choose from, US and English. The cues are a better standard than you'll find in any pub, and the baize, while not Crucible standard, is usually in pretty good nick too. It almost invariably proves cheaper than playing anywhere else, unless you're with someone extremely slow, as you can play for an hour for just over £6. Riley's often has offers on too, so you can get 3 hours for the price of 2. Even though I'm a bit of a chubber there's normally adequate room for queuing, but if it's particularly busy and the balls dictate you sometimes have to wait for a second to allow someone else to take a shot. TV's showing the latest sports results/matches are a bonus.

Owned by both Landlady and Landlord, they do their best to make you feel welcome. There's often a strange mix of clientele, from the very young to the very old, but everyone appears to be having a grand old time all the same. For sports lovers, there's the informal sports bar upstairs with screens, but be sure to get there early to nab a leather sofa. The Orange Tree has a great selection of draught beers as well as real ales, and the food hearty and includes a very pocket-friendly daily special including pie day, fish and chip day and steak day, all under £5!

It's one of those pubs that has obviously been lovingly cared and built on for a number of years. The food is good old fashioned pub grub like home made steak and ale pie, rump steaks, baguettes and a good selection of salads. They even have a resident ghost! who has been the subject of interest for ghost hunters, regulars and visitors alike..... Apparently he is a monk who likes chanting! They have a small beer garden to the rear, there is also seating out the front facing out onto Altrincham old market square, most of the buildings here are some of the oldest in the town. There is also a sports bar inside where they show all sports .. you name it, they probably will air it. A peaceful, privately owned and traditional pub!

What I like best about Liverpool star Jamie Carragher's business venture is the addition England to…read morethe title of this very run of the mill sports bar. I'm not sure what I am expecting from a sports bar except a good selection of screens but maybe I yearn to find somewhere that lives up to the standards set by Cheers? At Cafe Sports, however, nobody will know your name. It's possible that Mr Carragher would think that a wet mid-week afternoon was not the best time for me to get a good flavour of the place but I have seen this place on a Saturday night and I'm not sure that's a side of the establishment that I want to reflect! It's just bland, Sky Sports News on every screen just strikes me as a bit desperate - we need sport, any sport, even hockey news! - To be fair to the place, it does what it says on the tin and I'm sure Cafe Sports will be a good venue for the World Cup but as somewhere I have visited outside of a notable sporting event it doesn't really have much else to offer.

Considering the fact that this is a Sports Café you'd expect wings, nachos, burgers, wedges, all…read morethe stuff you'd imagine munching on when you're watching a good game. However what's unusual about this place is that you can get proper traditional Brit main meals here. I should have noted the England in the title, huh. Guess it's less an American Sports Bar, more a pub spliced with one. Neat! The homemade scouse takes pride of place on the menu but you can also find fish and chips, bangers and mash, cottage pie, even a chip butty or a gargantuan Yorkshire pud filled with roast beef and spuds, gravy and veg. Believe me, come here when you're ravenous because otherwise you'll be so packed full you'll want to fall bobos. You can even get breakfast here if you pop in during the morning, and it's not all fried eggs and sausages and ketchup, there's fresh fruit salad and a super muesli packed with all sorts of goodies too, so even the health conscious can enjoy a bit of sporty action in the AM. Smoothies are available all day and are deliciously tangy and pulpy. Puddings are classics like fudge cake, carrot cake, banana split and sticky toffee pudding and come highly recommended along with their sorbets and yoghurts. The place is packed full of lots of tasteful sports memorabilia and there's a plethora of TV screens so no one misses out on the nice sporting view which is rather excellent. Seriously, if you need a treat I'd say it's one of the best places to watch a game and chow down on some stodge or get a smoothie and superfood fix. I thoroughly enjoyed it, and I'm not even that into sports.

Friday Night is their busiest night (Usually a full house & is the Busiest Bar in Cannock!) with Chart & Party Music in the Sports Bar area, plus a 70's & 80's Disco on the 1st Floor VIP Lounge every Friday & Saturday. They have an extensive menu and over 50 HD & 3D screens showing the sport every day whatever the time with a 24 hour license (we've sometimes been in there until 7am watching the live boxing or the rugby) All in all An awesome stylish Sports Bar & Grill, with great late night DJ entertainment.

The alcohol isnt particualry expensive, its probably about average, and the music tends to be the latest chart toppers and the like. The smoking area is really REALLY small however, not enough room to swing a cat really and this can be a problem when the place is packed. Its a great place to go and observe the 'mutton-dressed-as-lamb' on a saturday night attemptiong to strut their stuff on the dance floor - most amusing!

They have a pretty standard bar selection, prices are around average. One gripe - unless you're a seasoned pro, I'd avoid the poker tables, things can get serious and a little heated, nothing too major, just the odd raised voice. But these are off to one side and can be easily avoided if you're just coming to play pool. A fun night out.
