Quite a nice Pub near Thurstaston Beach. It has a large Car Park (including Electric Charging Bays). Inside is quite big, with lots of Tables and has a nice comfortable feeling about it👍 Service is quick and friendly. The Menu has lots of choices, including a Specials Menu too. Food is nice and reasonably priced👍 The Katsu Chicken was good (not quite as good as Wagamama's Chicken Katsu, but still good 🙂). Definitely a good place to call in for a bite to eat after a stroll on the Beach👍

We popped in on Saturday early evening after a walk on the beach visiting the area. We were made to feel very welcome and the staff were friendly and helpful. They were warm and welcoming to my children and my dog. The service was great and the food was lovely! ☺️ Upon returning home, I realised I had left my bag at the pub. My husband rang and spoke to Linda who promised to ask the staff and look around for me. I was very relieved when she rang back to say it had been handed in. I’m so very grateful for the honesty of the staff and customers. Gives you faith in humanity! Thank you so much 😊

Went today for Sunday roast after a great time a few weeks back. We were expecting the same level of service and quality of food however, that was not the case. 4 Sunday roasts, ok it was 7pm but the food was lukewarm and the portions and presentation was not the best. Very disappointed with tonight, especially as the experience was much improved a few weeks back with the change in management. No atmosphere and cold in there. We felt that we were holding the staff back in closing the pub.Sorry to say that we will not be back to eat again which is a shame.

Delicious Sunday roast (if you go for the lamb option - the beef was fine, but the lamb just melted off the bone). A very special mention to Harry’s outstanding service; he knew the menu inside out and made sure we made the best choice to suit our preferences, kept dietary restrictions present at every moment and made a Mothering Sunday particularly special.

We came here for dinner after an afternoon at the beach. The food was ok pub-restaurant food and quite pricey. Unfortunately, having not seen the sign in the car park, we left with a £60 parking fine. Completely unacceptable and not the norm for a restaurant like this. It's a greedy move that shows zero respect for customers. No chance we're coming back here again. Yet another money grab establishment with tourist prices and amateur home chef food.

Lovely little pub. Staff were really friendly and helpful. We had a meal off the small bites menu, which was tasty and good value. Very dog friendly with water bowls, treats and dog bed cushions. My little dog was very happy snuggled up by us. She even enjoyed a chicken breast off the dog menu.

I have been away from the area for some time and decided to go to the cottage loaf with my wife on my return to the Wirral. What a wonderful pub. Linda welcomed us and the dogs with a smile and pointed out the Doggy station with blankets and water what a nice thought. The food was great value for the price and the staff helpful and friendly. I was worried about the memories I had from all those years ago when myself and my sisters came to the cottage loaf with my parents would be spoiled not a chance loverly. My Wife and I will be back and next time with our kids. Thank you Linda and your staff.

Lovely friendly pub. Popped in to see if they were dog friendly and ended up finding a new favourite for us. Great atmosphere, friendly staff and lovely food. Dog friendly inside and out with a dog station with fresh water, bowls and mats which was a lovely touch. I had turkey roast and a cheesecake and my husband had prawn and chorizo Risotto and cheesecake. Food was plentiful and very tasty. We will definitely be back as it’s nice to find somewhere that’s pleased us and the dogs! Saw some people having the afternoon tea and that looked fabulous too. Well recommended

What an exceptional experience. Staff were caring, attentive and friendly from start to finish. They made a wonderful recommendation to add chicken to the Mac and cheese - wouldn’t have thought of that myself! The festive cocktails were delicious too and I’ll definitely have to pop back in for another spiced rum and raspberry mule. Couldn’t fault this place at all. Update ☺️ we came back for food yesterday and it was great the staff were very busy but still so lovely and the food was great again we had the light bites menu. They are also dog friendly 🐕

The kids meal that we ordered wasn’t available, and then they didn’t have the desert either (chocolate ice cream) We had to ask for missing items from his main meal. My meal came with different veg than was on the menu. The mash was rubbery and the duck was chewy. My husband’s beer was also flat. We didn’t get food until 45 minutes after we arrived, which wasn’t ideal with a two year old. Despite adding a high hair when I booked, we had to ask and wait for one. The table was sticky. We were sat next to a fire exit that was locked, but draughty. I really wanted like it there, it looks lovely from the outside. My husband went years ago and said the food was fantastic, but that wasn’t the case this time. We won’t go back. I didn’t enjoy the evening at all.

The staff could not do enough to make welcome, especially Helen who carried out the main service to the table. We had the set 3 course meal which was plenty for an afternoon meal.
