Regular quiz nights and fun place which is down to the atmosphere and staff. I always make a beeline for Sasha as I know I will be greeted with a smile and a chat which makes me feel so comfortable and at home.

Not been for years after a bad experience with quality, cleanliness and service but my daughter took her friend and really enjoyed it recently. It has changed hands since our visit years ago and we should have tried it sooner. Reluctantly we took ourselves back for another try and its very good . The food was spot on and service excellent. We will be going more now.

Lunch menu: Food was excellent and good value for the money. The 2 star rating is only because the table was sticky, even after the waitress wiped it with cleaner. (She did not wipe it dry; I had to use a dry cloth to dry it.) She explained that the table had been refinished and the finish was sticky. Dining was uncomfortable because it feels like the table is dirty. Recommendation to restaurant management: either refinish table properly or provide tablecloths. The salmon was served on a hot plate and when we were finished and lifted the plate, a white ring appeared in the finish due to heat from the hot plate. The Chicken tikka masala, chicken New Yorker and salmon were excellent.

The vibrant energy fills the air, creating a welcoming and pleasant atmosphere. A gentle hum of activity indicates a popular spot, yet it doesn't feel overwhelming. It's easy to find a comfortable space within the lively environment. Accessibility is clearly a priority, making it simple for everyone to join in. Soft lighting and comfortable seating add to the overall inviting ambiance. The delightful blend of energy and comfort creates a unique and memorable experience. It's a place where you can easily relax and enjoy yourself. The atmosphere is perfect for socializing or simply unwinding.

Visited for breakfast as we do regularly. What I want to know is, why on the last 3 occasions we have been the price has differed. Two weeks ago our breakfast cost£11.60 and just over 5 days ago the exact meal cost£12.70. However today the exact meals cost £16.00 . I was given some excuse but why was this not the case on my previous visits. Because I questioned the price I also noticed that for a cup of tea, which ok you could refill, was £3.69. However the price of the tea, whilst very high, was the same as when I visited on earlier dates. Needless to say they have lost a regular customer.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely fantastic pub! The Poachers has everything you could want—great atmosphere, friendly staff, and top-notch food and drinks. The moment you walk in, you're greeted with a warm welcome, and the cozy yet lively ambiance makes it the perfect spot to relax. The drinks selection is excellent, with a great range of beers, ales, and spirits to suit all tastes. The food is equally impressive—delicious, well-cooked, and generously portioned. Whether you're after a classic pub meal or something a little special, you won’t be disappointed. Service is always spot on, with staff who genuinely care about their customers. The attention to detail and friendly banter make each visit a pleasure. If you're looking for a proper pub with great food, drinks, and atmosphere, The Poachers is a must-visit. Highly recommend!

The Poachers in Bamber Bridge is a fantastic spot that offers a welcoming atmosphere and something for everyone. Whether you're stopping by for a meal, a pint, or one of their lively trivia nights, this place never disappoints. The food menu strikes the perfect balance between hearty classics and affordable prices. The curry and drink offer is excellent value and a must-try for midweek dining. Pair that with their Wine Wednesday promotion, and you've got the makings of a great night out. One of the standout events is their weekly trivia night, where teams can test their knowledge in a fun and interactive format using smartphones. It’s affordable, at just £2 per device, and full of energy. The trivia night also encourages friendly competition with selfie challenges for extra points, which is a clever and engaging touch. The staff at The Poachers are attentive, friendly, and always make you feel like part of the family. The pub itself is cosy, clean, and has a great layout for both small groups and larger gatherings. Whether you're a local or just passing through, The Poachers is a pub you'll want to visit again. Great food, brilliant atmosphere, and events that keep you coming back for more—this place is a gem in Bamber Bridge.

We stayed at Premier Inn opposite so thought this would be agreat place to get a Sunday roast. We were delighted to see there was a deal, sunday roast and drink £10! We were pleasantly surprised by the quality and quantity of the roast, we ordered extra cauliflower cheese and pigs in blankets but really didn't need to. We decided to pop back the following morning for breakfast as the selection was far superior to the premier inn cooked offering. All staff were friendly, special big up to Paul who couldn't do enough for us.

Friends wanted to treat us to lunch and we recommended the Golden Ball. However the experience left us somewhat embarrassed as the portions were small, unlike the prices charged. Sadly, we won't be returning. Too expensive for underwhelming portion sizes.
