The Forester Pub & Kitchen in Tameside - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Fantastic beautiful food I love this pub

food was lovely, atmosphere and style of the place was wetherspoons-esque but warm and authentic, staff were very nice! just wish we got a few more chips for the price

The last time I went in here was roughly 25 years ago. But from what I can remember it was OK. 👍

The staff are amazing and welcoming. Callie, Beth and Jordan are great and make you feel welcome. Deals are amazing

on a night out, excellent service good prices .

Excellent, great food and a nice relaxed atmosphere 😊😊

Great place for family food, food was delicious, will be going back!

Foods loverly really snjoy it Staff are so kind cheerful and so polite ☺️ xx

Very friendly, reasonably priced food.

Great staff first class service and a great garden for the kids and the dog's ( dog friendly pub )

Great for the kids to run about the back beer garden, very family friendly.. Had a great time for a big family meet up...👌

Free parking, great atmosphere, dog friendly, excellent food and beer garden. The staff were polite so overall I will definitely recommend this place to everyone.

This pub changed my life. Since meeting the Watkins clan my life has been full of joy, fun and frolic. They’ve made dukinfield trendy like didsbury and house prices have now risen. Well done on bringing the South African dream to dukinfield. We the people, thank you

Lovley place to go with dogs n kids while having a drink The host is very welcoming xx

Good food and fantastic service. The staff are absolutely excellent

Just had a brilliant meal at the Forester. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful and the service was second to none. Great atmosphere excellent menu and the wine wasn’t bad either.

went in for a meal which was lovely very friendly attentive staff good service. Large beer garden sadly raining when I went so couldn't go outside well recommended

Great food and drink. Great pub atmosphere. A great place to visit if you're local.

We came last Sunday and the staff were lovely and the food was bloody gorgeous and generous portions also hot. We will definitely be back Thankyou guys xx

First class food and terrific service. Highly recommend the Cod & Chips, great perfectly cooked steak along with delicious Lasagna. 10/10

Pet friendly, lovely big airy pub and super enclosed garden area for when the decent weather is with us! And the food is really good - loved the veggie burger, absolutely deeelish! And the staff are lovely, chatty and friendly.

Food was good and service was quick, nice pub grub and friendly atmosphere.

What a lovely place to have a drink. We was in christmas day and there were people having chistmas lunch, it looked beautiful. The staff made us all very welcome. Would recommend the Foresters pub & kitchen.

Unfortunately, we booked in advance and when we arrived was told they couldn't take our order for at least half an hour as they were too busy. No point in booking a table, we left and ate elsewhere.

Pleasant roomy pub music a little loud for me

Great place really nice bar staff food looks nice I'll be going back there one day to try the meals

One of the best pubs in Stalybridge, being at the top of a hill works great as most of the smack heads in Stalybridge simply can't be ar5ed to walk up to it! Bar staff are peng ting!

No atmosphere, dreadful place. Was better before refurbishment

Nice local friendly pub with a great atmosphere. Good food and friendly staff.

Nice place but a bit to dear for where it is

The pub is lovely and clean and nice out side area to sit if you choose.i had the vegan option plant based burger it was served lovely and hot and again lovely staff.my friend had the chicken platter or sharer I think it was.

Fantastic...best pub, grub and friendly staff I've experienced in years. Wish it could be my Local, but I live overseas.

Called in for first time Wednesday,. Fish and chips out of this world 10/10. Great pub

Me and my sister in law took our 84 years old mother for lunch today. Lovely kind,caring staff, we're very helpful. Mum enjoyed her scampi and chips as we did our mac and cheese. Very clean and nice garden area to enjoy. Thank you.

Nice pub we were going to have a meal in there after the football but they stopped serving food at 6pm no signs up too many children running through and about the pub the kids should be outside not in the pub I won't be coming back can't be doing with kids in pubs

Very welcoming pub, lovely food, very friendly staff. Visited on several occasions never been disappointed and the great bonus is its dog friendly so great for us to visit with our Dog Charlie. Definitely worth a visit you won’t be disappointed.

Visited twice this week Monday and today Friday very friendly staff and a lovely doggy called Alfiethat I met while I was there, both my friend and I really enjoyed the food we had both days I will be visiting again I hope very soon great place to visit thanks Marjorie

Brilliant food and really good service. Family meal for nine of us. Highly recommend thanks

Good food good service at great prices.

Nice food clean pub and friendly staff

Booked a table for 8 for Sunday lunch, it was quiet when we arrived at 14:30, got a really warm welcome and seated at our reserved table. Sunday lunch wasn't listed on the menu so asked and was told they did roast beef sunday, prepared from scratch by their new chef and was recommended. 5 of us had Sunday lunch, one scampi, buttermilk chicken burger and kids chicken nuggets. Food was served quickly and was really good. Sunday dinner included Yorkshire pudding, roasties, mash, 3 veg and gravy, all homemade no shop bought frozen Yorkshire puddings here. Chicken burger was huge and looked amazing, good sized portion of scampi and kids meal was great and included an oreo ice cream sandwich for after. Not a huge choice of desserts but cider apple crumble was excellent and the massive ice cream sundae sharer served 3. Staff were excellent, service was fast and friendly and compliments to the new chef, you did awesome. Looking forward to going again. Thank you

Loved it great atmosphere and friendly staff.

DISGUSTING CUSTOMER SERVICE ordered a chicken platter and the chicken wings were still raw and bloody!! When a staff member was notified to this a tall South African man came over and started an argument claiming this is the was chicken wings should look!!

Really nice and clean, food lovely and fast service

Sunday dinner nothing to write home about.

First time for a while bar staff very friendly and warm welcome

Really enjoyed Sunday Lunch at the Forresters pub. Nothing was too much trouble, the food presentation and service was excellent & it tasted like freshly cooked homemade food. The staff added a bit of fun to the service. Will definitely be going back. Well done!

We were disappointed that south African food wasn't on the menu when it was advertised but still enjoyed

Under new management. One of the best pub/restaurants in manchester. Sports bar, beer garden, outdoor front and rear seating, mini theme park for the kids at rear, family friendly place. Definitely recommend for all occasions whether it's a family meal, football night or just a good old knees up. Clean tidy place. Was in thier again last night and the main man Calvin was in a good mood like usual giving out crisps, peanuts and drinks on the house to his regulars. Definitely worth a visit the new management team have really turned the place around it's very luxurious

Nice quiet pint in nice surroundings

Excellent service from the staff and the chefs . Brilliant food and brilliant service . The lady on the till with blonde hair was very pleasant and very lovely and had a laugh. Would definitely return again 100% the best pub for food around tameside

Really stunning decor here. The food was really delish and well cooked. Staff were helpful n friendly. I like the fact the conveniences are easy to access as well 😀 😉

Pub is beautiful as for the chicken, it was very dry and over cooked. All the other food was ok. Nothing to rave about.

Good food, chilled atmosphere and great service...

Good good, although beer a little expensive, but great outdoors for kids

The food was cheaper but food I had wasn't very nice and I didn't finish it. It was a shame as it sounded and looked great but the taste didn't match the presentation. The best thing was the Schweppes blackcurrant cordial.

Fantastic food and a very reasonable price. Friendly staff.

Lovely friendly pub ,great food

Lovely food! Been a few times with the offer they had on.

What a great pub. We stopped by on our way back from a work meeting. Amazing fish and chips! Professional and friendly staff 5*

To expensive no joy anymore going in there good days are gone

Amazing Food. Staff are Lovely. Will be back.

Throughly recommend this place. All of our food was delicious and service was top notch. My extremely fussy husband actually said he ate the best fish and chips that he's ever had there !

Lived up to the recommendation... Beautiful place and the food!! Well, what can I say? Apart from 10 out of 10... Steak was cooked rare and medium rare to perfection 🥰

Great pub, really impressed with the food and the staff were really friendly

Quality of the food was amazing and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Definitely go back again.

Thoroughy enjoyed my visit food was great so was my shandy. The staff are great nothing too much trouble.

Was there yesterday afternoon for my dinner was very very nice the pie was lovely thank you

Had a lovely meal here tonight 2nd Sept. There was 8 of us. All happy with the meal. Definitely will be back

Absolutely lovely food. Great atmosphere. Fantastic staff.

Food was very disappointing, Food tasted microwaved and not fresh. ordered a simple salad was not fresh and served without dressing chicken was freezing cold, steak wasn't cooked to order came well done and was ordered medium which was specified twice as wasn't asked when taking the order, overpriced for the quality and food felt rushed to get out as I had only just sat down from taking my order and it arrives at the table I'd rather wait for good food than have sub standard food with quick service. Waiter was very pleasant and staff were friendly but wouldn't recommend anyone to eat there unless improved quality.

Lovely pub and nice atmosphere. Food could have been much better

Nice food drinks to expensive but good food is easy to get anywhere

Popped in for a pint with mum while visiting family on sat. Staff were brilliant. Warm and welcoming.

Came on Sunday with my boyfriend for the first time and what a great pub it is ,2 young lads behind the bar were lovely then another young lad came on later on and he was just as nice, outside seating area is lovely and food was lovely ,wish I would of found this little gem sooner, defo be back soon 😁

Great pub, great staff, landlord and landlady. Quality food and great garden What more could you want?

Nice place, the meal could have been better

Lovely surroundings great food great service

Awful Place.Run by people with no class.

Avoid! Avoid! Avoid! Landlady thinks she is some sort of gangster, she will say she is going to “knock you out” with a drop of a hat. I mean if you don’t mind being surrounded by rif raf then this is the place to be!
