AMAZING!!! As far as I remember this place has won pub food…read moreof the year ever year since Ive lived in the area. Super tasty quality food, I noticed that on the menu it even tells you which farm the meat came from, or where the ice cream was made etc. The Greek Lamb and the Gammon are both brilliant. The portions are huge and I'm always left with enough food for another meal but save room for the Holly Bush sundae because you wont ever have a such a selection of tasty locally made ice cream :) The prices are great too, last time I went it was around 30quid for the 2 of us.

Part of the Brunning & Price... See also The Woodbridge at Coalport. Very similar menu. I'm afraid with what I knew from the other palce and had the lamb.... Lovely. No starter and saved myself for the pudding.....Emmmmmm! A pint of Weetwood Cheshire Cat - £3.60 Lamb Shoulder - £16.85 Sticky Toffee Pudding (with dollop of ice cream) - £5.75 OK. The place is a bit pricey, but still enjoyable. The 7oz fillet steak is very very expensive - £25.95. I think I'd want a matured age of greater than 28 days, and per closer to 35.... I am not sure of the age of this steak... I recommend, and would go again.... I found the manager very approachable. OK OK I was with someone who had eaten there many times.... :-)

Too much fun!! These guys have a wide selection of beers. My first time trying Erdinger and it's…read moredelicious. We had a large group of friends here and they were able to accommodate us no problem. Very friendly bartenders and your typical pub ambiance. I also have to say I am SO surprised at how clean the bathroom was! I mean, I've been to fancy-ass hoity-toity places in America with bathrooms that look like hurricanes hit them....but this little pub stays on top of their facilities. Kudos to you guys!! Can you please teach lessons in America??

The service was first class, staff very friendly and the food was excellent. We were trying to compare to somewhere local to us and were pleasently surprised that one of our favourite reaturants Worsley Old Hall is part of the same chain. Keep up yhe good work."

Update: 27/11/14…read more Given that it was a Wednesday and no good weather the place was nearly full. The point of the update is that two colleagues and me went to use the vouchers from previous visits. I held 9 vouchers. 6 vouchers gives £12 of the bill. No problem. I mentioned that the other 3 expired 30/11/14. Not another problem, swapped for 3 that expire November 2015. Plus 2 more for the meals that had been paid for.... So, 5 new vouchers.... That's service..... and guarantees my return. 27/5/14 OK. They get their star back. Wife loved the place. The kids enjoyed their food too. Service was good. Had a slight problem getting to the place by taxi, as the driver didn't have the post code. I tried to ring the restaurant on the number they rang me back on earlier in the day. No answer. Eventually got to the place. BUT - IS THEIR PHONE FOR OUTGOING CALLS ONLY? OTHERWISE, ANSWER THE FLIPPING PHONE. The Bill was as follows: 3 x small Pepsi - £5.40 1 175ml - House White (Sauvignon Blanc) - £4.30 1 pint of Shropshire Gold - £3.70 1 Pate - £5.95 2 Seared wood pigeon starters (my 10 yo enjoyed) - £13.90 1 Crispy squid starter (my 12 yo daughter) - £6.95 Mains 1 Fish cakes - £10.95 1 Burger - £11.95 1 Children's haddock - £7.95 1 Lamb shoulder - £17.25 1 Bottle of (no. 49) Shiraz - £19.95 Total - £108.25 --------------------------------- Visiting again ..... Tried to book online, but time was greyed out. So rang three times but no answer. Time was about 3 pm. E-mailed as well as contacting their head office in Chester, and I presume the call to head office elicited the call at 3:30 pm. I like the opening of the call. You tried to call us during lunchtime.... Did I, at 3 pm! So that's the reason not to take bookings.... I explained the time I wanted was greyed out - they said that's was because it isn't available.... I said I just wanted to check..... I told them the time, and they sad....no problem.....If places playback their conversations, do they still believe it makes sense? Look I'm dropping a star, and quite frankly I wouldn't have tried so hard, but I previously raved about the place, so my wife wanted to go. They'll get the star back if my wife enjoys her meal, and nothing goes wrong. Just answer the bloody phone!!!!!!! ------------------ 7/5/14 Colleagues persuaded me to visit again last night. I had the same starter. The rump steak for the main (£17.95). Lovely and succulent. Nice chips and mushrooms. Pint of Shropshire Gold: £3.70, and large glass of Shiraz: £6.70. The place wasn't busy, as I have heard it can be. I'm letting them keep their 5 stars, but if when I visit again and find them slow to get the drinks to the table, and slow to get to the table for us to pay, when they have already delivered the bill, then I might drop a star. There are enough staff available to cope. The staff are very pleasant when serving, and visiting the table. --------------------- I couldn't fault the place. A colleague introduced me to the delights of the place. Superb selection of starters. Fantastic lamb shoulder, falling off the bone. Starter: Seared wood pigeon, black pudding and roast mushroom with a game reduction £6.95 Main: Lamb shoulder - £17.25 Also had a pint of Shropshire Gold - £3.70, and 175 ml of Percheron Shiraz/Mourvedre, South Africa - £4.60 I was too stuffed to have a pudding. I would have done, if I'd noticed their pudding wines. I know, I know.... greedy, but I have a rotund figure to maintain. :-) Well served by the staff...... Now the wife wants to visit!!!!

They serve wonderfully prepared food in a restaurant/pub that has a friendly atmosphere, good quality real cask ales and a high regard to customer service. If you've been after the return of the great British pub with well cooked food - this is the place for you. All of the meat comes from local butcher, Martin Thomas of Pattingham and is cooked to perfection on site by the chef and owner, Caroline Haddon. The wines offer a nice selection of both new and old world and are easy to drink and good value for money. Highly recommended.

Eek! Goodness gracious this place is an odd one. The most…read morerecent night that I've found myself in here was with a DJ, the sort of DJ Peter Kay makes fun of but even louder. Yes, the drinks are cheap, and there's a surprising amount of space but the fun stops there. Now, I don't know if the reason I spotted so many horrendous pointers is because I was the designated driver, but my tipsy companions spotted these too. The place smells like sweat and unwashed dreadlocks, I spent five minutes questioning my routine getting ready as to whether I'd applied antiperspirant until I clicked that it was the bar. But the absolute worst thing of the night was the aforementioned DJ. How was he booked? How does this guy think he's good? How has this poor man's family and friends not been honest with him about how he appears behind his little rig of flashy lights? What would possess a person to blow a cheap PE whistle they're pretending to be a rave whistle down a microphone into speakers that are too loud? Is it possible to blame a pub for tinnitus? So many questions... The playlist made it obvious that he was probably in his forties, thinking that all of the youth of today were clubbing in the early nineties, when much of the crowd that night were well after that. The cutting and mixing was alarming, and he seemed to have no idea about an audience. He started playing "I will survive", and everyone in the bar was singing pretty loudly and actually enjoying themselves, so what did he do? He stopped it after the first voice and started talking, and singing something different himself!! So the bar continued to sing along over the top of the DJ, and he just carried on ignoring the pub! Ha! Then he started singing karaoke by himself, then there was the most, I will politely say unique, rendition of all I want for Christmas is you. We all wanted to leave but the drunkest member of our group had wandered off. At the end of the day, we were entertained by the DJ, but in an ironically awful, worst DJ I've heard kind of way, spending most of our time in there joking about how the place was silent when he shouted "EVERYBODY SCREEEAAAAM!!!", and how he seemed like the kind of oddball that thought when the crowd danced that they were dancing for him. Bar staff were friendly, glasses collected regularly, toilets were grim, but a different unappetising smell to the rest of the bar. It's worth a laugh for one.
