Plough in Warrington

Visited today and was very impressed with the food quality, presentation, and flavor—it was outstanding! However, I’m giving it 4 stars because although the food was excellent, we had to ask for our drinks as they weren’t ready, which meant a bit of a wait. That said, the place had a lovely, cozy atmosphere overall.

Steak had to be sent back to much blood for me, but otherwise, food was OK.

Budget food but fairly cheap - wouldn’t go again.

Nice atmosphere and Great food. The service was positive and courteous. I was impressed with the pricing on the children's menu. All in all very good place.

Nice big pub. The food is good, not fancy, but for the reasonable price you can't complain. Huge beer garden too.

Great service and lovely atmosphere. Great value for money and tasty!

We visited the pub for a meal with my grandparents on the 13th October 2024, who had been before a few times and recommended it. We all ordered the beef roast dinner, but unfortunately, the meal was a big letdown. When it arrived, the food was cold. We sent it back, and while the staff were apologetic and reheated the food, it was clearly reheated in a microwave. and the quality was poor. The Yorkshire pudding was rubbery, and overall, the meal was disappointing. My grandad even commented that it was "the worst roast dinner he'd ever had." Hoping to end on a better note, we ordered dessert. My grandparents enjoyed their apple pie, and my partner’s sticky toffee cheesecake was fine. However, I ordered the biscoff cheesecake, which had a strange texture and unpleasant taste. When we pointed this out, the waiter suggested it might have been previously frozen. She kindly offered me an alternative, and I chose the chocolate fudge cake, which was much better. While the staff were polite and did try to rectify the issues, the overall experience was disappointing. We had high hopes but sadly wouldn’t return based on this visit.

Absolutely would recommend this place to ANYONE. The food the service and the atmosphere was second to none. It's the best food we've had in a very long time and we will be definately becoming regulars now. Very happy we stumbled across this lovely place.

It's home from home. Where else can you get 2 mains and 2 drinks. Under £20.

Great selection of food & drinks available, food on Sizzle Plates is particulrly good. lovely traditional pub with a large beer garden - well worth a visit! Edit -2024 and still fabulous food.

For the last few times .. the food hasn't been of a good standard.. it's cheap enough to let it slide.. but not enjoyed my last 2/3 visits

The food is excellent here. Went with a large group for my daughter 18th. Absolutely NO complaints . All sat together orders were correct and food great. Highly recommend. They also do a blue card discount. So if you're a member of the medical or emergency services, take your card with you.

Our third visit for lunch in 4 weeks, this time for our daughters birthday. Table pre booked and we got the one requested. Food was excellent again. Fast becoming our new favourite for pub food. The meal deal is great value for money

Great food and service in an old time pub.

Got the starters wrong being Vegan they where unsure which starter was which so ended up going back and starting again. Main courses had been left under the hotplate light, hunters chicken was dry sauce had congealed, gravy boat had a skin over it , mushroom and garlic tart was burnt and dried out , really dissapointed with the quality, as normally the food is so good and tasty

Good value especially lunchtime deals

Food was delicious service was quick 😋

Steak Night Rocking it today. Two steaks cooked absolutely perfectly. Arrived within 20 minutes. Much better value compared to some well known steakhouse M&C. Well worth a visit

Enjoyed our lunch at the Plough. Dog friendly in the bar area. The staff were very friendly and welcoming.

Staff friendly ouick serice food was very nice

Ok food and drink but be prepared to wait to get served at the bar

Two mains for £13.49 deal. Food took a long time to appear but my word it was well worth the wait. My husband chose Steak and Ale Pie and I had the 8oz gammon steak which came out sizzling!😋🤤Both meals were excellent. The atmosphere was fairly quiet as most people were sitting outside. The TV was on but it was great because it wasn't to loud. Will definitely return?

We visited The Plough in Houghton Green for the first time last night & was a little apprehensive as we have always gone to The Winwick Quay which unfortunately has recently closed. Well it did not disappoint & exceeded our expectations...the staff were lovely & friendly & very welcoming & even though it was really busy, we didn't wait long for our meals which were all beautifully presented & piping hot. The restaurant is well set out & very spacious & has a lovely atmosphere & the staff went above & beyond in making our visit very enjoyable & we will definitely be returning as it looks like we have found our new GO TO so definitely a HAPPY BUNNY!!

Great pub ! Friendly staff, with really good food & decent Beer 🍺 👌 👍 As in the past, we'll be back 😉👍👍

Been ti a few restaurants but this was the best yet would recommend that you visit .... It's going to be my regular from now on ...meals are a good variety and kids menu has a good selection....my family and myself had a celebration fro my younger son fabulous service and staff 😊😊

The food was nice, I had a signature burger and I thought it looked great and it tasted nice. The bun fell apart so didn't eat the bun but the rest of it tasted lovely. My other half had a burger and honestly it looked kinda sad, not much on the plate for what you paid for. It was fast, served hot and the staff were lovely. Nearly £8 for 2 none alcoholic drinks though which I thought was pricey. I would go again though but I'd try something different on the menu. Loads of selection though hefty menu :) clean and tidy in the pub though and outside looked good too.

Had the mixed grill and a couple of pints of IPA. Value for money it's the best food and beer I've had in along time. They just need a couple more staff to help serve.

Went for lunch on Sunday 7th July and was pleasantly surprised The last meal I had in the Plough was probably 25 years ago and it was a ploughman's, so in I went, The staff were friendly and welcoming I felt at ease straight away,that's a good thing. Next thing I noticed was the menu, after a quick scan the regular mixed grill caught my eye, It came on a sizzling plate with the egg cooked to perfection ,I like that too, All in all I liked the food and the services,so will be returning to sample some other dishes from the menu, I'll post some pictures of the menu and food prices.

Totally loved my meal but do wish i had asked for my steak on a plate rather than hot plate my steak was overcooked by time it got to the table. Was no trouble them changing my meal to how i wanted it. Staff wer polite friendly and helpful

Family friendly Green king pub in a residential area of Warrington . Wide range of continental beers and 3-4 ales on. Quite spacious and a large outside area. Food served. Quiz on Thursday. Large flat carpark handy for an overnight 🚐 🍻

Very friendly lovely staff nothing to much trouble. We visite twice a week most week fir family occasions or just tea out after work. Food always very good and fast. STAFF are lovely.

The food on the Menu was better than expected! Good quality. And our server, Liliana, was great, lovely spirit 😆. Will definitely be back. Thanks

Best burger I've had in a while, lilly was polite and made us smile, will be back again in the near future 😀!!!

Lovely food great price..great atmosphere.. Staff fantastic very helpful.

Friendly atmosphere staff very helpful. Food is reasonably priced.

There is must better food and drink elsewhere not a one star but nearly.

Worse pub food I have had in long time, first time there called in on way home. I got the lasagne it was so dry and claggy,no moisture,sauce in it at all, don't know how many times it had been heated up tasted old. My partner got the chicken combo that was also very dry.

Fantastic food and good price.service and staff are always good.atmosphere fantastic x

Worst experience I've had in a long time, booked a table and when arrived instead of asking what name the booking was in just presumed and started giving random names to us. The new menu didn't have much choice in my opinion compared to other green king pubs. I ordered our meals and then 15 mins later 2 of the 3 arrived and was just left there with no meal, when I enquired they said oooh I'm sorry bit there was an incident with my meal. 5 mins later meal arrived and to my surprise it still wasn't right as they said they had to bring part of the meal after the fact. The food was also a huge disappointment as it supposed to of been hot sauce on it but never did None of the staff seemed to know what was going on tbh and seemed like a bunch of idiots I have been a few times before and never had any issues but this was total and utter s... and don't think I will be going again for a long while

Service was really good and food was nice and price was very good value

Good food, friendly staff and nice atmosphere 🙂

Good value meals, lots of choice!, tea, coffee and greaaaat deserts you have to try the ice cream sundae, see if you can manage to finish it!

Food and staff amazing really good choice

Our recent experience at the pub with you was great. Upon our arrival at the pub, we were pleasantly greeted by Sam.She assisted us in choosing the perfect meals for our family. Sam's attentiveness and helpfulness were truly commendable and added to the overall enjoyment of our visit. Thank you for maintaining such a high standard of service at your establishment. We look forward to our next visit. Warm regards

Me and my wife just had a meal here and omg was amazing lovely staff lovely clean place and food was definitely worth the 5 stars :) gonna be making this our local from now on

Very nice pub with a friendly local atmosphere.

As sa go up of ladies who meet up 1 a month always a good meal a very good value for money very friendly staff good all round

2nd visit, 2nd bad meal, when I complained was met with an attitude that is less than welcoming. Do yourselves a favour and head to The Millhouse 500 yds away they never fail on their food quality and service.

Lovely unexpected lunch..most enjoyable

The Sunday roast was well cooked and plenty of it. Only complaint it was not very hot, but would still definitely recommend it. We had a second visit today and it was even better than the first time. Food really hot and the staff couldn't have been more helpful. A very relaxed and comfortable meal.

Told 1 hour 15 mins for food wasn't even busy a joke so went home

My absolute favourite place to take my family. Great food and staff, Our server Ebony was excellent

Great deal, 2 courses and an afternoon's entertainment, all for less than £15.00, We chose the Dolly Parton tribute act, a great afternoon's entertainment ensued, great atmosphere, great food, great staff, can thoroughly recommend this experience.

We had a lovely afternoon at the plough , there was a Dolly Parton Tribute, and she was good, and went on to do other song's and she was funny as well, also included in the £15.99 price was a 2 course meal I had the gammon sizzler, there was 12 of us in our party and everyone enjoyed the afternoon I would recommend, there's a Michael Jackson tribute in may, Frankie valley in June, and tom Jones on the 9 July so had a try , if you have the time 12 until 4 enjoy

The food isn't good at all I had the mix grll and the best thing in it was the chips

The food came quickly and was tasty, the staff was friendly :)

lovely pub great food and reasonable price . didnt try the ale so couldn't comment. will be back!

Many thanks to the manager who pointed out a better deal for me.

Yet again superb food cooked to order. Great atmosphere. Staff friendly. Fabulous service.

Meals were lovely all hot. Just disappointed they couldn't do the mixed grill due to no chicken left. 😕

If you want AMAZING mouthwatering food that is very generously sized & want a brilliant experience then this is THE BEST place to go!!! 🤗😊 Came here about a Month ago with my boyfriend on a busy weekday evening. We were attended to quickly for our drinks. Given plenty of time to decide what we wanted from the menu. Staff are always happy to give you extra time if needed.(There is a little bit of a wait on food..) but that's because ALL THE FOOD IS ALWAYS COOKED FROM FRESH!! 😊😊NEVER MICROWAVED!! 🤗😊 I can HIGHLY recommend the Chicken skillet which comes with large chips & peas. My fella ordered fish & Chips which he loves! We had a lovely desert each too. Staff were extremely polite & had great attitude. Food was amazing!! More than happy to pay their prices. Atmosphere was really nice not too loud. Everything was 10/10 🤗🤗 in my opinion well worth the money!! Hope anyone who goes has a great experience too!! 🤗😊 The Only problem I had that night were my jeans feeling too tight!! Xx 😂😂

Had a nice meal but room quite cold

Lovely place great good and lovely staff

Great value but long waiting time for the meal, and hour give or take - then again, if you're out for the evening it may not matter at all ......

Food was nice and like the app for ordering food. If youre just ordering drinks though keep an eye on the time as my drinks didnt go through and we had to chase them up. One young man was a lovely server but the others seemed pretty done with their shifts and a bit cold. All in all fine pub, think id only go back for their 2 for 1 cocktails after 6 on saturdays.

Excellent food, good value for money, really enjoyed our night

Excellent new year's Eve staff very friendly Kirsty goes over and above

Half the menu was missing due to none delivery and didn't tell us ..we had booked so had the number . But the food we could order was nice and staff friendly

Lovely meals great service great price x

It's was a too cold where we sat but food was ok

Went to Elvis tribute afternoon ,he's was great ,would highly recommend 👌

Lovely staff who were very helpful and lovely food. We went midweek and had the steak offer and it was well worth it, even my sons kids meal looked really nice.

Good basic food at fair price weekdays spacials very good. Staff friendly and helpful.First visit but would go back again.

Went for Sunday dinner and when we got there it was absolutely freezing and when we asked for the heating on there reply was its broken just like it was 12 months ago. Shouldn't be allowed to trade in them conditions it was a joke

Good old pub food. Gammon as show in picture is really nice, good quality meat. It stood out from other meals we ordered. The chicken strips were good quality also but plating looked very bland in comparison..tasty though. Lots of items on the menu to choose from, will try again. They also take blue light card if you have

We had a lovely late lunch. The staff are always really friendly. They even remember what I eat!!!!

Sadly, the last time we had a group booking, many items were off the menu. Despite on this occasion, checking on arrival that everything was available and being told yes, after the whole table had ordered, 10 minutes later those who ordered the steak and camembert were told that the kitchen had no camembert, causing the guests to rethink their order and delaying the rest of the table. The dish is described as a '24oz rump steak, cooked to your liking, sliced and served with a whole baked camembert for dipping' Quite innocently, the server offered that we could have grated cheddar. When asked if this would be melted for dipping, we were told 'yes, I suppose, or we could just sprinkle it over'....Hardly a replacement. Due to the size of the menu, we opted for the ribeye steak sizzler, medium rare, with fried onions, peas, grilled tomato and chips as it was simple and meant the other guests wouldn't need to wait too long for their, already ordered meals. The menu has the option of having the meal on a plate which we opted for as a steak on a sizzler plate will continue cooking hard as soon as it's plated (?). Unfortunately both ribeyes arrived with no fried onions (apparently they only apply on the sizzler plate...) and we're both overcooked. Noticing a few small pieces of onion on the plate tells me that the steak had speak a minute or two on the pass sitting on a red hot sizzler plate. Annoyingly this is the second disappointing experience at the Plough, but because I was a guest of the booker I couldn't influence the choice of the location. Hopefully the Management team address these issues in the future and most importantly, ensure that whilst advertising the venue as a steakhouse, your staff can manage to cook a steak correctly and also manage their inventory to ensure you have the components for one of the highest priced dishes on your menu - the Steak Camembert Sharer and not advise restaurant staff to suggest 'grated cheddar'.

It's good for a greenking not badly priced the food ok for a chain service self serve at bar

Great food at good prices, the chicken sharing platter is amazing.

Lovely meal out with my bestie ❤️

Good food....nice place...first visit. Would call in again if in the area .

Good food and great service always enjoy going here

A pub with typical pub food and drink options: burgers, fish and chips, fajitas, lasagna, etc. Various themed deals and a two-for-£12 offer that runs most of the week. TVs for viewing sports. The car park is a reasonable size, but fills up even midweek.

Lovely clean tidy, staff warm welcoming.

Awful meal. Maybe because it was a bank holiday. My wife had a steak that was so tough when she tried to swallow a piece she couldn't and it made her physically sick. My gammon had a funny colour but tsdted OK the chops however were oven chips that tasted like they Hadd been kept warm. Such a shame.

Had a great evening with the family, Food and service was spot on We will definitely be back Thank you

Never a bad meal here. Service is brilliant food is always tasty. You can also watch sports outside on a screen.

Great food, quick service,friendly

My experience was awful food fish and chips fish was none existent just dreadful batter . Went in with small dog placed away from anyone. Just awful

Lovely little pub on the outskirts of Warrington dose get busy which can delay waiting in food but service is always really friendly and food is usually good for a reasonable price.

Great atmosphere, food and staff.

Good food value for money carnt wait go back

Nice pub. Very friendly atmosphere.

Very nice food and well presented pub. Think the food would have been better on a plate rather than a metal tray but aside that 5*'s

No issues with the meals. The sides wernt great.,the garlic bread with cheese, was very pale and like bread with microwaved cheese on top. Needed baking/grilling. The corn on the cob was again pale and very small. May past its best.

My favourite local pub I enjoy the beer garden, food and drink here they all complement each other to make the plough an enjoyable place

This is my go to! Good hearty food, outdoor space when the weather's good, I went there last night and although I couldn't get through to book a table I literally managed to get a table for 10 inside when I just turned up! It was no problem for the staff, they were so accommodating and friendly? Kids can run riot in the outdoor space and even find the gee gees

I went with my family for my 60th birthday meal and everything was spot on and perfect we all enjoyed our meal and the staff were excellent

I really enjoyed some Italian food at The plough. Friendly staff and a cosy place inside.

Nice welcoming dog friendly pub. Needed a few more staff to clean the empty tables.
