We have attended the Stanley arms so many times that we can't fault it. Family owed & family run. Yesterday we held our Mum's wake there, absolutely fabulous service & the most beautiful buffet.

I have just come back from a Sunday lunch. I’m so upset. We watched the table next to us waiting for their meal and the woman in a pink top and checked trousers apologise and give them a free dessert. We were asked if we wanted to see the dessert menu by our waitress which we said yes to. 15 mins later I asked for it from the woman in pink trousers as it hadn’t arrived. She brought it and took my order. It didn’t arrive so after a further 15 mins I asked someone else. This was after the woman in pink walked past but despite catching my eye ignored my ‘excuse me’. I then had to hang about to actually find someone. When it was brought the ‘hot’ fudge cake was stone cold with the sauce having a skin on it. I asked for it to be changed which they did quickly. It still was cold and I didn’t eat it. The table next to us told us they come often and didn’t recognise the woman in pink. She appeared again and got their bill and card payment. I asked her if we could have our bill which she agreed to. 10 mins later she walked past and again pretended not to hear me or see me despite locking eyes again. The manager in a white dress with a red pattern on was lovely. I asked her for the bill and she sorted it. As we left I saw the woman in pink eating a meal!! I get it was her break but why not just say that and I’d happily have waited. Really bad service and I won’t be going back on the basis of the woman in pink who was cloyingly creepy to the people next to us whilst totally ignoring us. Terrible service.

On 12.03.24 booked the conservatory for 30th birthday meal in July for family 25 people. They took Deposit, contact number and email address and advised that they would send through the menu to choose from as we needed to pre book. (no Problem for me). 2 months later still no contact from them, phoned and explained the situation I was advised no problem they will get someone to send it over, another couple of weeks later and still nothing, so went in (I don't live close to it) spoke to another different person who said they will get someone to contact me as the boss wasn't in. Guess what "NO ONE CONTACTED ME" I sent a message on the face book page which I received an automatic response from, so I replied to that and was told you need to come into the pub. Beginning of July 3 months after the initial booking I went in again as you can image quiet annoyed at the lack of communication and still no menus, I was given a physical copy of an old menu and they wrote down someone's email address for me to sent it to. I asked if they could still email a copy over to my email address which was wrote in the diary. Also spoke to a cook about me needing gluten free as I am a coeliac she was lovely explained all the different things she could make gluten free for me as long as she had notice, Thank you to this cook she was brilliant. I then got peoples choices from the old menu as they still hadn't sent the new menu and tried to email them to the email address given it just bounced back. Went into the pub again to advise and was told someone will email me then I can just reply to that as they don't know which email address to send it to. The Monday before the meal was booked I got a phone call asking why I hadn't sent the food order through, so I explained all of above and said that I would yet again come to the pub and physically pass them the list. When I passed the list in I asked about bringing in decorations etc for them to put on the tables, I was told that was fine. I was also advised that they wont take the payments from separate people its to much hassle they prefer someone to pay in full , so another thing for me to arrange was for my bank details to them be passed to everyone for payment. The day of the meal I dropped the decorations off only to be told where are your table cloths we don't provide them and when would I be coming to set them up as they don't set things up, I was then advised that we was being put in another room with other people (we booked a separate room for a reason),which I expressed to the women I spoke to. So I was told ok you can have the room but there is a room charge.... no one has ever mentioned a room charge, the lady I spoke to said its here on the bottom of the menus we sent you...(they never sent those I was given a old menu). Anyway the night of the meal and I am one very stressed person because of all the above, we get there and all sit down early as they advised, they started to bring out the starters but missed several people out, so when a waitress came back in I asked where the rest of the starters where she said oh are you still waiting for some? we then had to advise what was missing. The kids had there main meal with the starters at our request, when they brought the adult meals again meals where missing and I had almost finished my meal and ended up going to the bar to ask where the other 6 meals where, after sometime they where brought through and we where told sorry there was a mix up when the order was written down by the staff. After a while we give in waiting for anyone to clear away any glasses or plates and I went to the bar to ask for someone to clear the room and bring desserts. Spoons where brought out and put in a pile on one of the tables so everyone had to get up and there own spoons, then the desserts came out. I can honestly say that I was ashamed for them they made the whole experience before and during totally stressful and I can honestly say the food was ok but nothing special. When I then asked for the bill they tried to overcharge me by over £100, spoke to one girl who tried to fix it and came back with a lower number but still not correct, I had the figure worked out as it was me that was paying. Eventually someone else came back with a different figure and apologised and said the other girl was new and should't have worked the bill out, they had knocked £30 for the inconvenience of the night, I paid and left as quickly as I could and told the poor waitress we would never be back. If you are thinking of booking for a party don't do it go somewhere else. How these people run a business I don't know. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Visited many times but worst service ever! Booked for Sunday lunch to take my mother in law out, we have eaten at The Stanley Arms for many years but today was a shambles, the waiting staff were so inexperienced that it became the blind leading the blind, none apart from one young lady had a clue, I asked for extra gravy 3 times, eventually after a ten minute wait I had the gravy, we were not asked if we required any sauces, drinks, there was a lack of interest from anyone. The food was a mixture of the good, the bad and the terrible, my starter of salt and pepper chicken was very good, my main of roast beef was average, the meat was dry and the rest was a little tasteless, then to add insult to injury my dessert was sent right back to the kitchen, we were given the wrong dessert menu, so my choice had to change, I ordered as a second choice the jam and coconut sponge with custard, it arrived with ice cream, after mentioning this I was told to scrape the ice cream off and they would bring some custard, oh my….. the custard was solid and the coconut sponge was undercooked and disgusting, I wouldn’t mind but I waited over five minutes for the custard which was inedible, my meal turned into one big joke! The staff, only a handful must have all been new as they were shadowing each other but never actually seemed to finish the task in hand! I’m not sure what has happened at The Stanley Arms but things certainly need attention. Shame!

We visit this place often, the food is generally good and the service is always good. However we had a bad experience booking our table, the lady we spoke to was rude, abrupt and actually lied to us. We requested a round table if available, and she snapped that all the round tables had been moved to the conservatory. Simply not true, there are 2 round tables . She was rude taking our deposit, and generally gave the impression we were inconveniencing her. This is a shame, because the service staff are always so pleasant and helpful.

I has the black pudding and chorizo starter, followed by salmon with king prawn and new potatoes, again incredible! I would only go midweek as the inside appears small but beautiful big outside terrace which looks like it would get busy. Fresh San Miguel on tap too! All round great meal, staff and service, glad they're not part of a chain. Going back very soon 😋

This is a lovely spot with great views from the window and a large conservatory which turned out too cold for us. The Sunday evening menu is extremely limited in scope and there was only one vegetarian ‘choice’ which was disappointing. However what really ruined the evening was the lack of service. There was a surprisingly large number of staff mostly standing in groups chatting or cleaning tables but we couldn’t get any attention. We had to chase them for menus, my sister had to interrupt her meal to go to the bar. We had to search for them to get dessert menus and honestly it was the worst service I’ve ever had. They even failed to bring back our change (only a few pounds but still). The shame of it is the food was really enjoyable and the general ambience was nice but I would really hesitate to return under the circumstances.

Visited here recently on a Sunday for a birthday meal with family and sat in the conservatory which is spacious and bright. The Sunday menu is a small selection of roast dinners and a few other meals such as Cumberland sausage, vegetable lasagna and pie of the day. I found the Sunday menu particularly disappointing in terms of selection compared to other days. There was a small selection of specials on the day. I ordered salt & pepper chicken starter, which came as 4 chicken goujons in a kind of sweet chilli sauce with onions, small salad and single prawn cracker. My wife ordered garlic breaded mushrooms which came with a white sauce on the side. Both starters were tasty, and a decent size costing around £7/£8 each. For mains I got the chicken roast dinner, which was a small chicken breast, 2 roast potatoes, a lump of mashed potato, a small ramekin of stuffing and lots of gravy. Vegetables come in shared bowls, which doesn't tend to work well for large tables. I ended up without any at my end of the table, when asked for more was told that enough was on the table and no more would be brought out. One bowl was brought closer - which is fine but it wasn't what I expected to hear when paying £15 for a meal. I'd prefer vegetables to be served on the plate. My wife got a sweet potato curry pie and chips from the specials menu which she enjoyed. We personally didn't order any desserts but there looked to be a large selection priced around £6.50 each. Other people on the table who ordered them were pleased with their selections. The young staff members waiting on were pleasant, helpful, and did a great job managing multiple tables. Overall I enjoyed the starter, the main was ok but I would have expected better for the price. I personally would like to see more choices on the Sunday menu.

We visited the Stanley many years ago and left disappointed. We did not return for many years. We don’t eat out very often but have eaten at a few of the other eateries locally. However we had not planned and ended up with no dinner and not really anywhere to go. After a long drive home it was late on a Sunday 6pm. Heading towards the Stanley, I check on line, they only serve till 7pm. Likelyhood of there being any food left this late on a Sunday seemed pretty low. A lovely young lady who had clearly been working hard all day, greeted us. She had to check with the kitchen. Fair enough due to mentioned above. She returned to say yes we could in the bar, no issue for us! We were seated and our order taken very quick and I would say that our food arrived a short while later. Much faster than I had anticipated. What greeted me on my huge dinner plate was the most tender slices of beef and loads of them! Beautiful buttery mash, perfectly roasted potatoes and gravy. On the side was a dish of perfectly cooked vegetables (seasonal) my husband had the same and my daughter had Mac and cheese due to a wobbly tooth! A week ago we had eaten at a pub in Rainford. It was empty at a lunch time on a Sunday. There was good reason for this. At the time I felt it was a mediocre Sunday lunch but in comparison to this lunch it was awful at best. The Stanley showed me what it’s like to have a fantastic Sunday lunch and what’s more was much cheaper! We will return with pleasure!

Visited for a belated birthday lunch. Restaraunt is welcoming and nicely laid out and we were seated when we arrived despite being a bit early for our table. The roast dinner was excellent - a good helping of chicken and ham, raosties, gravy, stuffing and a large selection of vegtables all nicely cooked and presented. Hubby had the hunters chicken burger which came with homemade chunky chips, onion rings slaw, salad etc. Both meals were very nice and we finished off with tea and coffee - and just one dessert for me as it was my birthday after all! The staff were friendly and the service was very good. Overall it was a very pleasant visit and we would visit again. PS. We had booked a table and just as well as despite it being a rather wet Friday lunch time there seemed to be a steady number of people arriving to eat.

Two tables the arrived after got served before us. Food arrived before drinks and wrong wine served. Batter on the battered cod was soggy and peas cold. Disappointed

Great food at a reasonable price served by wonderful, friendly staff who really looked after us. We were a party of 11 but the service was excellent. Thank you.

Today I was a part of a walking group of 28 people! i really was not expecting the amazing standard of ALL the dishes that came from the kitchen. It’s a few years since i have eaten here, but it was delicious 😋i had the multi seed avocado with tandoori chicken kebab with a pineapple and ginger dressing absolutely gorgeous. My friends all raved about their choices all the dishes were hot, considering it was a large group service was great 10/10. Well done Tracey and Theresa and your team 😋 I will be back next week and will recommend to all my family and friends.

Absolutely horrible food. Chips were definitely warmed up, fish had more batter than actual fish and the peas came in a lump. Avoid this place if you value your health.

Lovely food great all the staff are very polite and very helpful On Saturdays they have a DJ playing lovely tracks the DJ doesn't speak he just puts good music on... I went together with my 4 friends it was such a a great day out xx At the night time they also had a live singer which was a great experience.. Did I say we all had our dogs biscuits and water are available..

Stopped there recently for a quick drink whilst travelling the East Lancs. I used the rear entry. My god I was horrified by the state of disrepair of the building. The whole place should be demolished and rebuilt. The window frames are rotten and falling to pieces and some of the windows have no glass. It's a disgrace that this unkempt dump should be serving food. I wouldn't eat anything there. They can spend money on their wacky warehouse but fail to maintain the building in a satisfactory condition. But the sad thing is they charge over £6 for a pint of Peroni as though the place is a premium establishment. Its nowhere near. This is like London prices in a shabby area of Merseyside and a shabby building. Who are Greene King trying to kid. With management like this it's no wonder tgat they are laying off so many people at Bury S E. Avoid at all costs. Even the parking lot is shabby and full of potholes etc. Close your wacky warehouse and refurbish the whole building to an acceptable standard. Keep driving past.

came for food as online says kitchen closes at 9pm, to be told kitchen is closed at 8pm spent about £20 on taxis to get to this place for not to be able to get what we came for. spent a lot of money in here in the past, very upset and will not be coming again. if it closes at 8pm update online the times you are open til.
