The Kings Ransom in Trafford

Was a lively catch up lunch with my niece.. the good was absolutely gorgeous & we didn’t have to wait long the service was above the server was called Karen & she was so friendly

I came here lunch and picked the katsu chicken curry and rice/chips it come within a reasonable time frame and the food tasted great too so thank you to our waiter Karen who was very welcoming and friendly an thanks to the cook Josh as the food was spot on :) .

Came for dinner after the marathon, pizza was perfect, nice seat by the canal and excellent service from Karen. Will definitely be back!

Amazing service from Karen and Kinz. Came here for Sunday lunch, food was lovely! Will definitely be recommending to family and friends.

This is a lovely little pub on the canal. I had scampi and chips and it was delicious had a chat with Karen and Cleo who were very helpful …will be back soon x

I’ve been a regular at The Kings Ransom for quite some time, and I can’t say enough good things about this place. The staff are all great, I have a particularly good relationship with Cassie, who is always polite, attentive, and goes above and beyond to ensure every visit is enjoyable. Cassie’s dedication to her work is truly commendable—she remembers the little details that make all the difference and always makes you feel valued as a customer. The venue itself is consistently clean and well-maintained, creating a comfortable environment where you can relax and enjoy your time. Whether you’re there for a quick drink or a leisurely evening, The Kings Ransom never disappoints. Highly recommend!

Quick and friendly service, food was good and a nice relaxed atmosphere! Nice spot by the canal too which was lovely on a sunny evening!

Very helpful staff , food was great and come quick, it was lunch time, and we were party of 18 , would recommend, amazing experience, would go again Thank you everyone

Amazing meal food was lovely, staff very friendly and looked after us very well atmosphere also lovely and a nice touch with the quiz night getting everyone involved!!

Perfect hangover cure…Full English breakfast sat by the water in the sunshine. Perfect 👌🏼 breakfast was amazing, very tasty and lots of it. That was only the traditional also, not the large. Highly recommended x

At the heart of Sale and aside the Bridgewater canal, The Kings Ransom, is currently closed for a much-anticipated refurbishment. Its clear from the comments on social media, that its absence is felt by the local community who eagerly await it's reopening. Meanwhile, the new signage and refreshing blue accent colour have already caught the eye of passersby, hinting at the modern and fresh approach being taken to rejuvenate this beloved local pub. Greene King, the brewery behind this ambitious project, have demonstrated exceptional commitment, with builders working tirelessly, including weekends. It looks like the project is on track to meet the impressive end of March deadline, and patrons (me being one of them) cannot wait to see the new venue. The scale of investment in this refurbishment is impressive, with local media reporting six-figure sums close to £1m to bring the pub up to date. This significant financial commitment speaks volumes about the faith in the pub's potential to continue being a cornerstone of community life here in Sale. The Kings Ransom's transformation is more than just a refurbishment; it's a renewal of its vow to be a place of warmth, welcome, and relaxation. As we count down to the unveiling, we look forward to creating new memories in a space that respects its past while boldly stepping into the future. The Kings Ransom, you've been missed, but the future looks bright, and we can't wait to see what's in store. Just promise me you won’t get rid of that Peroni tap!

Great pub, friendly staff, really nice food and lovely atmosphere. Situated by the canal and in the centre of Sale it's a great pub to visit with friends or family.

Great place to go with family and friends, lovely staff and great atmosphere xx food is lovely too my new local pub for Friday and sat night

I was here with my partner and child after being a soft play. We were in need of food and have been here before and always had a great experience. Found a nice area to sit by the window, great choice for the kids menu and I enjoyed a steak as it was Thursday and they have a promotion on. Highly recommend.

Wonderful pub in Sale! Great place to gather with mates to watch a footie or darts match. Fun drinks and great beers on tap.

We went here last year as a family and it was amazing so booked again for this year for Christmas Day. It was again excellent. The menu covered everything and everything was brought out piping hot and well presented. The food was amazing and there was plenty of staff on and it was so well organised again. It was the perfect day for our family. Massive thank you to Tracy and Mike and all their staff for making the day so spectacular!

Popped in on Christmas Eve for a couple of drinks and had a really good experience! Landlady is amazing and extremely welcoming, staff are also very efficient. Would highly recommend!

Top place with a great atmosphere, The food is amazing ran by a lovely lady & welcoming staff. Definitely be returning

Visited on an extremely busy night (canal boat procession and music at the Sale Waterside) but was shown to our table straight away. The food that we ordered was served very quickly and was delicious. Can’t fault it. Staff very courteous and helpful despite the busy atmosphere. Gem of a pub.

Lovely lunch along the canal. Food was fresh, nicely cooked and really tasty. We went for the fish and chips and the Hunters chicken. Vanessa and Lynn were our servers and were delightful. Highly recommend for a nice, casual lunch.

The hamburger with melted blue cheese was to die for! Staff were great as was the atmosphere. Is Aussies loved it!

Great pub for lunch, can sit right next to the canal. Good food good service, staff all very friendly

This is a great place especially in summer with the outdoor seating next to the canal. The food is similar in price to spoons but it is better quality.

The waitress, Vanessa, was so professional and yet lovely and friendly. She clearly loves her job and it shows. I asked a question and Vanessa was not sure, so she asked and came back with the reply. How refreshing that this you lady might not...

Why oh why did you crank the music up at 6.50pm on Good Friday? We and many other groups were having a great time but we are now at home rather than having another drink or two. We could see people of all age groups...

The least dog friendly dog friendly pub ever. Food was ok although the rosemary chips had zero rosemary in them

Beautifully decorated inside. The outside has got canal boats and you can hire one whilst you're there. Plenty seating outside too. The staff and the food were brilliant. Will definitely be going back.

The pub itself is nice. Lovely building and good seating area outside. Service was fine. Do not bother with the food though unless your expectations are very low and you’re only eating there because you have a to. What we ordered was edible (just about)...
