Absolutely worst meal we have ever had The girl behind the bar was very unprofessional When I said my tea was storm cold She put her hand on the machine and said this water is steaming hot lol I got four pieces of scampi and 10 shrivelled up chips My friend got a burger that was shrivelled My husband got onion rings that were overcooked I was very disappointed because I was looking forward to going and trying the new album But never again

The fish was like Fred Flintstones club, hard and hardly anything inside.my husband scratch his throat, Gravy was a grey colour, the chips were lukewarm , all in all a very unappetising meal. The waiters were friendly and apologetic.

Decent pub, nice food and cheap prices. Drinks are decent priced as well compared to other pubs. Good veggie and vegan options 👏🏼 staff were lovely. Not sure what people expect from a sports pub but I’d say it does what it says on the tin.

The food was lovely and tasty, ordered the lasagne, but the portion size was small for the price paid, as was the steak & ale pie, both left not feeling full up, in fact ordered an extra portion of chips, will be back, hopefully the portion sizes will increase, if not the 4 of us will dine elsewhere

Booked a table for 7 was really busy due to grand national, staff exceptional very proffessional and bubbly. Ordered lasagna 12.99 which was a toddler size portion, ordered chips and garlic bread extra on top of this price £2.50 per side, again very small. Food overpriced for portion size. Should really be a seperate eating area due to tvs and people watching sports really loud. I wouldnt eat here again but the the amosphere is lovely if meeting friends for drinks.

Attended this place recently without booking and it was busy. We was told 30min wait but decided to wait. We have been here before plenty of times with no issues mind! Anyway ordered food via the QR code on the table. App said 23min wait. Food ordered 29mins past the hour. Waited until after 7 for Starters that looked awful and for the price, the quantity was ridiculous. After that we waited until 30mins past for the mains, 1 hour by this time. Went to see where the food was and was told 5mins.. told the manager if not on the table in 5 then I wanted a refund. 6 - 7mins later.. still no food so went up to get a refund. Was refused as the food had been made and was just then being braught out. The staff apologised but it wrecked our night. I made a complaint via the app and asked for a partial refund but they called me back and despite being misadvised on timings they said no to a refund. The seating at this pub was minty and tatty. The table was sticky and not clean when we sat down. The atmosphere was as flat as a pancake. The price for food considering the quality of the starters was a complete rip off, not attending here ever again.

Bar staff a bit chaotic despite the pub not being particularly busy. Fish and chips were OK however the pub was that cold 🥶 we had to wear our coats during our meal, if the carvery range had been in use , I am sure the pub would have felt more welcoming . We won't be in a hurry to return we will use the Rainhill one in future. The place felt soul less to be honest

Started out really well, but it's taken a downhill slide in recent months. Food is well below par for the prices they are now charging. Had to reluctantly complain about the food quality on the last couple of visits. Other customers seem to be doing the same when you look around. Offer on currently for 20% off drinks, but the quality of the beers isn't great either! Needs a good shake up before the summer and get standards back up!!

Everything went so smoothly considering there were lots of us, food came out fresh, on time and gorgeous! Not one person in our group had an issue. Really impressed with the service and would come back without hesitation. Thank you to everyone for ensuring our day went as well as it could have!

Just had a Sunday roast from the carvery. It was delicious. The gammon was so tasty and the turkey was surprisingly moist. The vegetables were all well cooked, and the meal was hot. The pub is very spacious with lots of room to manoeuvre prams or wheelchairs. I'll definitely be going back 😊.

We’ve attended this place a few times and thought me and my wife would bring the mother in law for food. It was a nose hill disaster! The place has dived downhill! The bread was frozen and a lady infront of me was touching every piece of bread to see which were not frozen …. She’s touched every piece and all were frozen! Not hygienic at all. By the time I’d asked the bar staff for actual bread my food had been on the table for 15 minutes. By the time the bread was toasted as it came back out frozen it was 22 minutes. My food was colder than the atmosphere here. We were not the only ones to complain. Also the breakfast is no longer all you can eat and I paid £9 for 2 rashes of bacon and 2 sausages…. Is this harrods? We ordered a coffee which didn’t come till we chased it. Overall it’s a 1/10. Venue wasn’t busy and we know why. Won’t be back here and certainly don’t want cold food/ awful food/ frozen bread which has been touched by every tom d and Harry

Totally crammed as many people in as they could on Christmas Day. Very poor bar and waiter service for the number of people that needed serving. Packed together with no room to move between tables making it very difficult gor getting around. Service between courses was so slow and poor, having to wait over 1hour for desserts that we chased up three times with different staff members. We were also told when we asked for coffe to be served that they would ask, but the bar staff were overwhelmed with drink requests and might not be able to service us our coffee, which was included in the price. Food from the carvery was very good, but the two people in our group did not get their steaks till after we had all finished our main meals. Won't be going there again in a hurry as their usual standards we not even met half way, what a let down. Think about the quality of service Cookhouse and not just making a gready profit on the most important meal of the year for families.

The food was very well cooked and nicely presented. The batter on the fish was a little oily for me, but definitely not worthy of a complaint as the fish itself was lovely. Service was great, really friendly welcome on arrival and very cheery throughout the meal. One thing we did notice was there was no background music, but it certainly didn’t spoil what was a really enjoyable evening out.

I've been raving about this place. Wasn't intending to come here. It was just happenstance and now I'm dying to go back. The warm welcome, the smiling,friendly waiter, the interior and best of all, THE FOOD! Oh my God! We both had the chicken chorizo and it was by far the most enjoyable meal I've bought in such a long time. Every aspect of the meal was delicious: the home made coleslaw;the home made relish;the lettuce was so fresh; the sweet potatoe fries; the sour cream; the sweet chilli jam;the chicken and chorizo and it all came together in a glorious frenzy to tingle and delight your taste buds. A masterpiece. Okay, okay, but near enough. I nearly wept. I had the cherry bakewell blondie for dessert. I didn't think you could possibly get two equally fantastic courses but you can at this place! Another exquisite treat which, again, was homemade with such care and expertise. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.
