Cozy pub typical pub food menu. Needs to attract more customers, quiet & no atmosphere , needs happy staff to welcome you in. Best day is Sunday lunch, can’t fault it but please please invest in some fans….so hot in there because of old windows not letting air in. Constructive criticism I hope because we do like this little pub If you upped the atmosphere to attract more customers it could be a gold mine .

Empty tables but so unwelcoming. Stress on legs as a Maitre Di and If it was me and there was an hours wait even though only 4 or 5 tables were occupied with plenty free, I'd sit me down with some free chips and a small free drink to keep me there so I spent more money. As much use as t**s on a fish....and so unfriendly too !! Simply kissed at least £60 goodbye. Get yourselves on a customer service course guys. Never know when you are open either and many people comment the same.

I think I've found a good food option for when I visit my mum as I don't live in the Tameside area anymore. There is a lack of decent Sunday Roast options in the Stalybridge/Duki area IMO. Had a look on here and found The Junction Inn so gave it a go. Have to say it was an excellent home cooked dinner. My elderly mum can't eat a full size meal so it was good she could have the child size roast. And she ate nearly all of it. So much nicer to see her eat most of a smaller plate of food rather than waste a big meal. The staff were also really lovely and friendly. We did wait a while for the food but you need to appreciate that is because it's decent and freshly cooked. Prices are good too! Overall a very nice meal, my mum loved it and we will definitely go back again. Oh and the music was nice and quiet which really matters to us. Nothing worse than not being able to hear due to loud music! Thanks for a lovely afternoon out!

What a lovely surprise to visit here. Can’t fault anything. The service was attentive and helpful going the extra to check everything ok. The food was excellent and the portions were huge. Definitely would go here again don’t judge the food from the appearance or location of the building. Great value too.

Family of five visited ages from 11 to 82. We all had a main meal, 3 had puddings and we all had drinks. The food was excellent! Meat was very tender and very tasty. Large portions and really great value for money. Can't believe I have never been here before and I live in Ashton. My only criticism is there was only 1 vegetarian dish on the menu. We will definitely be back!

Well what aplesent, and quite unexpected surprise. Called in with my 2 best friends today Sunday. We were just finished for the day. And as we always do wherever we go in the country. So I get to eat out at least 3 to 4 times a week, and food quality, and taste is very important to me. So what a absolute change to find such a place by random, well I say random. I checked reviews first online. And was impressed by there feedback. What a lovely change, to sit in and relax, and feel welcomed in a local pub. And when I say local. I mean it is so much of a change to find a locally run pub with all of the staff being friendly and attentive to us all. But to top of this pubs relaxed atmosphere, and very friendly enviroment. The food was second to none. Traditional home cooked produce. That was full of beautiful flavours, extremely well presented. 100 percent I will be returning to this excellent establishment. Thank you all.

It was my self and my Wife and two friends first time at the Junction Inn on Sunday the 30-01-2022. Let me get this out of the way first it was a shame we had to wait a while for our Sunday dinners to be served. But that out of the way the staff were so professional and help full. and when the food was served it was all excellent I can recommend the Sunday Dinner. we will be going back soon. and will be recommending the Junction to my family and friends. Good lock to all the team for the future.

We visited the Junction Inn on the first day of their reopening and we couldn't recommend it enough. We were greeted at the door by the manager, who was friendly and professional. The menu was a pleasant surprise as they'd introduced a lovely tapas style menu so we were able to select a few different dishes and get to taste lots of different types of food. As expected with tapas, the dishes arrived at different times, as and when it was cooked so, if felt like food was arriving continuously. The food itself tasted amazing so they obviously have an amazing chef. The staff were always checking that we have everything we need and always very professional. If you're looking for great food in a warm and friendly atmosphere you should try the Junction Inn.

We went as a family to celebrate my husbands birthday just before lock down was imposed. I ordered the mushrooms in garlic sauce which were awful. The sauce tasted of raw flour. We had to ask for my husbands starter as it wasn't brought out. After everyone had finished the stater the waitress came for the second time to check the order for our mains. They hadn't even started cooking them. I ordered the fish and chips as the belly pork I really fancied was off the menu. The chips were huge wedges, not chips and were not properly cooked. The fish was very greasy. The dessert menu left a lot to be desired only having a selection of stodgy typical English puddings. We have eaten here before over gge course of four or five years and the food has, always been gourmet standard. I don't know if there has been a change in ownership in recent times but I won't be going back unless the food improves drastically. And no I didn't complain at the time as my in-laws were paying and I didn't want to spoil their treat or embarrass them. To sum up, I could have done much better at home and the senior waitress who kept double-checking the order that our waitress had taken didn't inspire much confidence. They really need to up their game.

If it’s full outside there is a cosy inner courtyard, which we never knew was there and just as nice as the front. We visited The Junction on a sunny Saturday afternoon around 1:45pm. As we approached, the outside tables were full, when we reached the pub a table was just leaving. The staff made us feel very welcomed and couldn’t do enough for us. We didn’t want a full meal so asked for some nibbles. To our surprise we was offered a food platter. Wow, wow, wow. When it arrived is was amazing just want we wanted. We can’t rate this place enough and you should really give it a try. If it’s busy outside, pop in and checkout the courtyard.

Very welcoming. Greeted with a smile as soon as I walked through the door I only went in to check out the menu but had to stay when I saw they did Rag pudding. It’s one of my favourite childhood foods my Grandma used to make and can never find anywhere that serves a good one now So I was very pleased. Veg was little under cooked for my liking but in all a good meal The staff are very attentive, I will definitely be returning again.

We had heard good things about the food here so decided to give it a try. We were really disappointed. Visited on a Saturday lunch and I had ham, egg and chips and my husband the fish and chips. I don’t know if it was a different chef but the fish and the chips on both plates were really soggy as if the fat was not hot enough. In addition the ham was actually gammon and tasted like it had been fried in old oil and the eggs were hard. On a positive note the staff were lovely. We really wanted to like the food so will give it another try and hopefully get a better meal.

Visited here for the 4th time on Sunday 5th May 19. The food was ok butt he place was empty and my wife and I was placed on a very small table with side by side seating. I asked the waitress if it would be ok to move to a better table and was told that all the tables were booked up so it was not possible to move. 10 minutes later 2 people came in and was put on one of the tables that I requested to move to. We had our dinner on the small table and left. When we left no other people had come into the place.

Had Sunday lunch yesterday 7/4/18. The positives are that it is a nice cosy and friendly pub. The pork was lovely.The negatives(which I am sad about because I really like this pub) as follows. All the vegetables tasted the same, no seasoning at all and the gravy was tasteless. I think the chef needs to taste his/her food before serving.Also putting beetroot and corgett on a Sunday lunch isn’t a good idea in my opinion.

Myself and my lovely wife were starving! Passed it so many times and thought this time were going in. So glad we did; the lunch was fantastic. Rag pudding, beef gravy, seasonal veg and creamy mash for me, my good lady; courgette and tomato soup and thick cut sage ham sandwich’s. Family run with lovely, chatty staff and a nice atmosphere too. Decor is warm and friendly which weirdly makes your food taste even better. Highly recommended.

I returned to the junction to see if their had been any change from my last review, though once again the feel of the place was friendly and warm, disappointingly the same issue I had last time had not been addressed . This is that the table drinks service is so slow, the table staff though amiable need to speed up a bit , the food was once again very good and I would recommend it but there is still room for improvement.

It must be 20 years I was in the Junction. We visited for lunch with friends and to sample their Xmas food. The pub has a cosy country pub feel. The service is friendly and efficient. The food was good. Another reviewer noted the amount of vegetables but let’s not knock that as we tend not to eat enough vegetables hence why the nation are generally obese. The portions are very good and we had a great couple of hours catching up with friends.

Food was not great today, fish and chips nicely presented but fish was dry and tasteless and chips brown but no taste either.

The service was very good from the owner, who was keen to make an impression and certainly did as she was attentive, from a business point of view I would suggest also pushing drinks more as I could have partaken in a further ale as I wasn’t asked I held off but this was as much due to me being lazy as them.

My wife and i have visited The Junction on a number of occassions in the passed and been quite happy, On Thursday evening the cook must have been having a bad day for the wait was a fair time considering the order ( two cups of tea, prawn cocktail and soup of the day) that was not so demanding. The teas turned up no problem it was a good 15 min after we had drunk the tea that the prawn cocktail and soup arrived the appearance of the soup indicated that it had been forgotten in the microwave, that should have sounded alarm bells. The main was rag pudding which should have been delicately steamed suet pastry with a filling of mince beef and onions with a side dish of chips and peas. what turned up was hard baked pastry which was inedible. It was resistant to cutting it was like a piece of volcanic rock. we approached the waitress who took the offending articles back to the kitchen. At that stage the meal was ruined. The sweet was cancelled. And payment was arranged the cashier informed us that the steamed rag pudding had been left in the oven to long,A discount of £2 was offered off a bill of £31 what a joke, we didn't want a discount we wanted a decent meal. Bye Bye Junction and you can keep your Christmas Faye.

First greeted by the lovely landlady who is very friendly, polite and welcoming, we ordered our food and drinks and sat waiting in the lovely eating area, our starter was first which was the pate with red onion marmalade and my parter had the mushroom in stilton sauce, amazingly presented and so nice we knew we had certainly come to the right place for our meals, then we had our main courses of the roast of the day which was roast beef and my partner had the 10 oz rump steak, wow portions we fantastic and the meal unbelievable! So fresh, so tasty and delicious, i am 42 and i really really can't remember having a meal where everything was so fresh, everything was cooked to perfection! Everything homemade not a frozen anything in sight! My partner even had real home cooked chips with her steak although there were other options to choose from, a great choice on the menu, reasonably priced, a lovely feel to the place with a lovely view whilst you are eating, we met the chef on our way out and offered our compliments as he definitely knows what he is doing! A lovely place, lovely landlady, fantastic food, catering also for children and vegetarians, a carpark to easily park your car if the needs be, all in all what a brilliant place, i can't believe it has taken me all these yrs to try here! We will definitely be calling again and again, thank you for a lovely experience and keep up the fantastic work, 2 extremely happy customers

After looking on TripAdvisor we came across this little gem and was not disappointed. We called in for Sunday lunch and they made us feel very welcome and very friendly. The Sunday lunch was lovely, all hot food and a good variety of vegetables and generous portions. Would recommend and already planning a return visit.

I can only really echo the views of others here. Traditional pub grub served to a high standard.The pub is split into 3 or 4 small rooms, like pubs used to be. Lovely traditional style with fireplaces and spotlessly clean.Staff are friendly and informal. The young man who took our food order had a laugh with us.Two of our party qualified for the "Senior's Menu" which is good value at 2 courses for £7.95. However, two courses from the regular is considerably more which may limit the frequency of our visits.Our group ate lamb & mint pie, rag pudding and lamb roast dinner. All dishes were good and served with a choice of mash, new potatoes or home made chips. Special mention must go to the minced lamb pie which had a good deep fill.

With nothing much to do on a wet Easter Saturday (early) evening we decided to eat at The Junction Pub. We had had a meal there many months ago and, so far as we could recall, we were not disappointed. Firstly the menu gave us a reasonably wide choice of food. I chose the 'Cajun' Chicken and my partner chose the Braised Steak. Whilst we both enjoyed our choice of meals the Steak looked so appetizing that on our next visit I will have the steak. The portions were generous and the attitude of all staff was really welcoming. I strongly recommend this pub for a really good meal and most definitely value for money.

I have visited here 4 times now. It is small with 3 rooms but that makes it what it is. I have visited twice with my partner and twice with my family. I love that everything is fresh and has that 'home made' feel about it. I've had the pies twice, chips are excellent, home made and thick cut! I love the chicken strips and garlic mayonnaise. They also have specials, and I've had these a few times too. Always something that you fancy. Lovely little pub, staff are excellent and really friendly. Would recommend if you want proper pub food and a lovely relaxed, quiet atmosphere.

The small pub nearly closed down just a few years ago but now it is doing really well, The staff are really friendly, there is a good choice of beers and the jewel in the crown is the food, its excellent, everything is homemade and they have some interesting things on the menu from time to time, not your average pub food. We have celebrated many occasions there and it never fails to amaze.

Traditional pub food menu, large portions and a touch northern. Good chips. Being a Robinsons pub it has some good beers. Nice small pub atmosphere.

Went as one half of two couples for dinner. Other couple like traditional and the Junction is local with a good review so kind of top of the list. Starters were okay. Not sure but my Thai prawns wrapped in batter are something I have tasted before from the frozen aisle. Followed by 3 cheese and onion pies and a steak and ale pie. A bit surprising they were out of "thick cooked chips" but that said all 4 pies were spot on. Price was reasonable. Young guy who served us was finding his feet as he had only just started. Just added to the experience and we all start somewhere. Would I go again....sure but maybe for a Sunday lunch rather than a meal on a Saturday night but that's my personal opinion. Couldn't fault it. But next time I'm having the rag puddin...

We've just visited the junction for the first time and would definitely go again. There isn't a massive choice on the menu but you'll easily find something you'll like. I had the pate followed by cheese and onion pie and finished off with apple crumble and custard. It was very reasonably priced and the staff were very pleasant. Thank you

The food is delicious if you can get what is on the menu! Each time I have ordered a dish there has been something unavailable - no hollandaise, no chorizo etc. It’s a shame because what they do have is lovely and it has a nice little venue.

My mum pops in when out shopping to buy treats for the kids, they make lovely gingerbread biscuits, the latest she bought were Paw Patrol characters, my 3 year old daughter loved her Skye gingerbread. Mum also gets pies and sausage rolls for an easy lunch, all very nice.

Double D's provided hot food for my 50th party. The customer service was amazing from my first enquiry. Everything needed was provided by them, plates, napkins etc. The food was outstanding. All my guests went up for seconds. I would highly recommend and would not think twice about using again.
