Church Inn in Oldham

Proper pub with proper honest and well priced food! Great menu, really good selection of drinks (if you like beers and IPA's be sure to check out the We Are Wolf brewery here too!). Always really great portions at really modest prices and always tastes great!

Simply the best nothing compares to home cooked food in a rustic old country pub . Few local fools who look down at non local folk but the owners and bar staff top notch ignore the ten bob millionaires with tales of how much their houses cost ! Food spot on Revisit 25/4/25 fish was giant took most home very impressive place

Excellent visit 24/04/25 5pm Very friendly efficient service Food was delicious and good size portions Will definitely be back can’t fault it in anyway very enjoyable visit all round

Good old fashioned pub near the church. Used to have better ale. Food usually decent, tho I didn't eat today the meals coming up looked good.

The food was amazing good quality and plenty of it.Olivia was very attentive and couldn't do enough to make sure we was happy we will definitely return very soon 😁

Fantastic pub and incredible food topped off with a genuine down to earth atmosphere, loved it!

Lovely traditional pub in a lovely setting. The food is excellent and huge portions. Excellent value for money. Lovely, friendly staff.

Fantastic old-worldly pub in an amazing setting. The steak pie was thick, meaty and absolutely spot on and the gravy, wow. Keeping simple is sometimes the best recipe! Lovely little spot with homemade food at a reasonable price. Would highly recommend.

Food is fresh, home made and delicious. Also very reasonably priced.

We walked in for a reservation for my birthday. We were told to go through to the seated area in the back. Waited to be seated for 5 mins, and eventually shown to our table. We sat for 25 mins, while they were clearing other tables, and talking to other patrons. Nobody asked to take our order, or said we will be with you soon. I finished my pint, and we left.

Very nice pub dog friendly and friendly service 👍

A truly lovely traditional pub serving really excellent home made food and wonderful staff. It's such a treat to visit here.

A great pub with friendly staff. The food is tasty, reasonably priced and there's an extensive menu. The portions are enormous, even the all day small breakfast is enormous!

Great place, friendly service, good selection of drinks, amazing food Great environment 👏

Always 5 star food and staff. Highly enjoyed

Traditional,cosy pub. Indoors and outdoorsceating/ sitting areas. I loved the whole experience, the roast was to die for!

Amazing they was four of us every one had something different from each other and every meal was perfect good portion size incredible service excellent all round beautiful surroundings in the countryside can’t wait to go back

Only complaint nearly 20 pound service charge.....Please accept my apologies. Wrong pub. Sorry.

I frequent this lovely distinguished and perfectly positioned public house in wonderful Saddleworth surroundings. This evenings pre booked meal for 3 at 5pm was more than disappointment for us as we usually have the most tasty and enjoyable meals. Two of the diners had starters to which one of us had the garlic mushroom, it was tasteless and the sauce was watery. 2 diners had the lasagne and when they arrived on the table it was bubbling hot but the cheese topping was burnt and welded to the dish. Very dry and had clumps of hard mince as well as the sauce in between layer of pasta being none existent. The overall look and taste of the lasagne was very poor and should not have been served as it was. The staff x 4 did not ask if we were OK with the meals like they normally do, which is unheard of seeing that I have dined here multiple times. I feel very angry with the meals they had given us and the way the lasagne was presented. I expected the meals at least to be edible not inedible as they were. I don't usually write a bad review for this pub as the food is normally 1st Class, but unfortunately this evenings experience I had to.

Had to put up with a yapping dog. Useless dog owners! Otherwise twas very nice .

Gosh portion sizes are large. Great home made pub food

Brilliant choices on menu. Food was excellent and a lot of it very tasty the chips were very nice and home made. In a really lovely setting will definitely be back.

Our friend had read a good review so we decided to drive over from Halifax with another couple. A beautiful traditional rustic pub set in a idilic country location within a quint essential English village. The homemade food is incredible, great menu variety, polite and attentive staff, quick service, very generous portions and great value for money. We are looking to return to the area in the summer and intend to book local accommodation so we can have a walk, book dinner here and have a few drinks as the outdoor seating area looks very inviting!

Great place to eat been coming here for years definitely the right food you need after a long walk. Proper pub grub highly recommend

Amazing food and huge portions. Ordered a lasagne and my wife ordered a skewer had to take half home as we were so full. Service was excellent especially the young gentlemen who was serving in the restaurant. Will recommend

Good nice meal for my mothers birthday

Ordered lasagne and fries, came as a burned block so reordered and when that came we were left with the cold chips the first one came with, plus there was hardly any meat or anything of substance in it. We have been going here for years and it has always been chip heavy but mains were always half decent …nice pub, deserves better food

The food was beautiful! Really really good. We sat downstairs as there were lots of tables reserved (I'd recommend booking a table if you can) especially if you are visiting on a weekend. The food was really delicious. Dog friendly as well which is a bonus and we even got a sausage for our doggo! Highly recommend!!

I had hunter's chicken but found it way too dry and my husband had sirloin steak that was supposed to be medium rare but it was more medium to well and also extremely dry

Great country pub with amazing home cooked food and a fantastic selection of beers

amazing and rustic , beautiful setting , gorgeous atmosphere. Set away from the main village and lends itself to the most beautiful views of uppermill nestled in the shadow of one of the most magestic churches in the area steaped in history, the food and drink are amazing set aside sone you time to enjoy it to the fullest 😀

Went for a Christmas meal, it was really busy, lovely atmosphere and lovely food x

Great service and food on Christmas Eve xxxx

Nice place with a nice setting and good food

Lovely traditional pub serving honest grub.

Good ale, good food, what's not to like 😋

Quality food and service! Friendly atmosphere. there is a good selection of food and drinks on the menu. recommended!

Always been one of my favourite Uppermill pubs. Always busy and my visit was no exception. Great atmosphere, good food and beer! Recommended

Great location. Fantastic place to stop for refreshments after a walk. Fire welcoming. Food comes in small or large portions .

My sister in law and I went here for lunch for my birthday. Wow, this place is awesome. Outside and inside bedecked for Christmas. What a beautiful aura for customers. We ordered our food and drinks. We had the steak pie and the steak pudding. Oh my goodness, everything was delicious, the home cut chips and mushy peas were to die for. The staff are very pleasant and we didn't wait long for our meals, about 10 mins. The open fire was a welcome sight as it was quite a cold but bright day. I had to write this review as I have reviewed lots of places to eat in the past, but the Church Inn is one not to miss. I would highly recommend this establishment to anyone as it serves the best food that I have ever tasted. Long may you all reign, you are all 2nd to none. Bravo to owners, chefs and waiting staff. A most pleasurable afternoon spent in a delightful location.

Excellent food and service, slight blip due to other customers taking advantage, but staff went above and beyond when notified . Food has always been delicious and great portions . Definitely be back.

Great food at great prices. The place is a proper old style pub with a great atmosphere.

We had a lovely meal this evening. Lamb shank and a roast beef dinner. The vegetables were a big improvement from the last time we came. Service and staff were excellent tonight.

Food was amazing, big portions and it came within 5 minutes of ordering despite it being busy. Very reasonably priced, would highly recommend.

Myself and 7 friends came for Sunday lunch, we all had a great time. Food was delicious and piping hot, large portions too! I will be back for more home cooked deliciousness. Staff are friendly and attentive.

Stopped for a quick drink, staff very friendly

I'd say here should be the capital of England

Brilliant, two staff behind bar to take meal orders and serve beverages at the same time. Walked out of Diggle Hotel where one poor staff coping with meal orders and everything else !

We visit the Church Inn regularly with family, on our last visit we had taken two of our grandchildren for lunch. We were disappointed in one of the children’s meals, the fishfingers that he had asked for were of poor quality resulting in them being left, I tried them myself and agreed that they weren’t nice. We ordered ice cream for the children, it was more like frozen water the children left it telling us it wasn’t nice. I tried the ice cream and agreed again it was awful. It’s not cheap eating out, but when some of the food is of poor quality it makes even more expensive. I hope this review is read as constructive rather than negative.

Lovely, warm & welcoming pub which serves absolutely delicious homemade food. This is a place we visit as a family when returning to Uppermill, where my mum grew up.

This is a beautiful pub with a great atmosphere. Pet friendly, and the food is superb.

Cannot fault the pub for anything great choice of food and drinks and at reasonable prices

I had meat and tatty pie and it was top draw and massive portion ! Couldn't eat it all ! Was red hot inside with the open fires ! My Partner had turkey sandwich with homemade chips and again lovely ! Plus a pint of Guinness 2 large glasses of wine and half a coke for £42 .. outstanding.

A really lovely, home cooked meal with our extended family. Excellent value for money. Highly recommended.

We had not been to the Church for some time but still very special. Friendly, Attentive staff and a system in place that the Church runs very well on both food and real ale if required. The meals are large and the chef/ chefs do a great job as location and nostalgia attract many people. Food very enjoyable and the service was really good. This is my opinion on the day that I went for food at The Church.

The church inn is my favourite the food is good (pub grub) the beer is very nice and they have a large variety of alcohol. The staff are very friendly and welcoming the scenery is brilliant.

I have been to the church many times and usually leave very satisfied. So it pains me to say it really, but the Sunday dinner was not up to the usual standard this time. Even the presentation seemed a bit rushed and thoughtless. The roasters were very undercooked and looked more like boiled potatoes, and the rest of the veg was very overcooked, so it was pretty flavourless. I'm putting this down to a one-off because I do love the pub and the location, etc, and the food is normally really good. Sorry, church Inn, but I felt it needed mentioning.

Was disappointed with the Sunday roast. Pre sliced turkey. Roasties tasted awful, not crispy, soft and hard like they had been frozen and reheated. Veg overcooked. I think I would stick to the homemade chips. They looked delicious. I would go again but not for the sunday roast. The chocolate orange cake was tasty.

Our recent family visit to the Church Inn was a delightful experience. The food was delicious, the staff attentive, and the overall ambiance charming. We were particularly impressed with the excellent service provided by the lady who served us. The pricing was reasonable, offering good value for the quality received. The combination of tasty cuisine, warm hospitality, and pleasant surroundings has certainly enticed us to return. We're already looking forward to our next visit to the Church Inn.

Great atmosphere, drinks, and food. Can get busy. Reasonable prices for food. We go regularly.

Deadfull food.!!!!!..Steak and Mushroom pie small portion and tastless.the chips were [we were told] hand cut...they must have found the smallest potatoes ever...they were scraps and plus slices of potato on my meal ...awful.never again........ plus the wine is terrible no choice just one brand called Rabbit ...i think.......very overpriced for the quality of food......I did complain on the way out.....and asked about the sliced potatoes i didnt order......it really was awful!!!!!!!!!!

Decent food and ale, lovely inside :')

Fantastic Sunday lunch, good choice of beer and friendly staff. Parking was there only issue but worked it out in the end 😅 maybe due to a christening

Visite the pub with our friend Olly. Perfect place, perfect ambiance, perfect service, And a great meal Olly nr 1! Jos, Jeroen and sir Erik :)

Great friendly service in a cosy atmosphere. Food was amazing with large portions and the best value around. Kids really enjoyed their choices as well.

lovely location for a brew pub,delicious food and old style pub decorations,

Real Country pub, dog friendly, good selection of ales and beers 🍻 👌 The peacocks and peahens roaming freely make a summer drink very entertaining

Always enjoy visiting here. Great value for money and a lovely ambience

Great pub with excellent an atmospheric feel. Food was delicious and seriously hearty portions. Good value and a great welcome.

A haven is fine ales in a wonderful building in a great setting.

One of the best pubs in the uppermill area, great food, excellent service and choice of real ales with a lovely view from the beer garden.

Beautiful old English pub in an outbuilding of the church. Delicious fresh meals with fresh local ingredients.

Dined here late last sunday. Service excellent and food very good.. would recommend.

Looking a bit run down. Food and drinks left on tables nobody clearing up.

We got a lamb shank and a small roast(Turkey). Everything was perfect! Mash was incredible. A resident pair of peacocks are free roaming and can and will jump up on the tables outside! What an experience! Will be coming back.

Lovley pub! Very cosy and traditional, the food was brilliant and a good price. The chips were homemade and tasted amazing. I will definitely be back

Amazing pub grub in a lovely location.

If you want a decent home cooked meal then here is your place. Excellent food, fantastic service and an all round lovely cozy pub set up in the hills of uppermill. Staff very friendly and you can take your dogs in too. We were made to feel really welcome and will definitely be going again.

Nicely located pub on the hill tops of Uppermill in Saddleworth adjacent to the Parish Church. Great range of nice food and a good range of good beers.

First time today lovely place went for a walk first around the church then lunch food was great plus came out fast 🤘

Wonderful Pub/ Restaurant with Great atmosphere & Gorgeous Traditional Food

Absolutely fantastic food as always

Honestly what a great find! Great food, decent pricing and not at all pretentious. Beautiful setting and a lovely area to hangout outside. Can tell this is a great pub by the many welcoming and friendly locals dotted about. Everything a country pub should be!

Been few times food brilliant if you want a good feed this is the place.

excelent lunch , food is always amazing . pleasant , friendly ,helpful welcoming staff . great beer selection

So, the atmosphere was nice and the beer quite good, but the food wasn't good. We ordered some home made chips (as advertised) and they came burnt, they basically said that they weren't burnt it was just the potatoes, when I showed him a deep black chip he couldn't defend it anymore, took it back to the kitchen and then we got served undercooked chips, there was a whole several shades of cooked that they could have gone for, but you could tell that deliverately they werent having it. At that point. Seeing the attitude of the staff we decided not to argue anymore but got really disappointed. I have Cancer, I don't really eat out much, and this really put a sour taste on the evening. A shame really, the place has a beautiful potential.

Good pub food. Good beer. Dog friendly.

A cosy, traditional pub with a friendly atmosphere. They have a varied menu with something for everyone, including a few vegan options. The food is classic, home cooked pub food and did not disappoint. The chips are to die for!

Nice varied menu and choices, the meals we had were all good and we had some good variation, I had the homemade lamb kofta, my wife and her friend had the roast dinner deal (£16 for a soup starter,a roast dinner and a pudding after) which was excellent value, the other person in our party had the mixed grill and we all really enjoyed it.

Had a homemade rag pudding, which was delicious, and my mum had hunters chicken, which she said was very good.

Great home cooked food. Great prices.

9 of us had a gorgeous meal here on Sunday, nothing to much trouble, would recommend to anyone

Definitely worth a visit lovely food nice seating area outside. Lovely staff. Beautiful peacocks 🦚

Never a bad meal when Dad and I visit this happy Inn. It seems all that visit here, go away fulfilled either by food or drink, and I can vouch for both 😁

Brilliant steak and onion sandwiche on ciabatti. Chips are something else. Proper potatoes. £10.95, bargain, washed down with 2 pints of st george bitter.

Always a great place for food and a drink. The food is always excellent and the portion sizes are massive.

Delicious food in fab environment. Highly recommend

Great service and food is really good

Steak Canadian rock hard have to go dentist tomorrow think I’ve lost a tooth also roast potatoes was solid asked for fish with no peas and came with loads of peas very disappointed

A great pub with fantastic food.
