A true old fashioned pub. Honest, home cooked food using high quality ingredients. The steak was out of this world. Best I have ever tasted. Topped off with a delicious pepper sauce. My husband had the burger which was very special. You will be very touched by stepping back in time in this traditional pub aptly named. The staff are excellent too and the atmosphere warm and cosy.

Decided to check out the old original and we was not disappointed. We had the set menu which was reasonably priced. A bottle of chardonnay and a few beers, and why not. A beautiful meal with some superb young waitress dashing around to ensure they missed nobody during service. Their fitbits must have exceeded some milage. Well done all 👏 we'll be back for sure....

First went here two weeks ago. The food was very good and the service was great. Went again this week, food was still very good and great service but we booked for 1.00pm which is when they open. Ordered our drinks and mains straight away. Got our mains about 1.40pm which was fine, then ordered dessert and more drinks. At 2.25pm we were asked to vacate the table,I felt rushed and had to finish my drink at the bar.

Late booking for four on Saturday and they were able to accommodate us. It was very good of them as they were really busy, positively heaving! Good atmosphere although noisy. Lovely menu choice with good specials available. Interesting specials of lamb dishes for mains. Two of us had lamb and two of us went for a steak, and they were enjoyed by all. Meat cooked as ordered, lovely veg. choice. Good hand pulled beer options. Lovely service, friendly staff. Would love to come back when in the area again.

Tomato and roast pepper soup 10/10 Pea and ham soup 10/10 Gammon eggs chips 10/10 Steak and cheese pie 10/10 Massive let down was the mashed potato 🥔 really bland mash not buttery or creamy. We are looking forward to visiting again for the cheese and onion pie I just really hope the mashed potato is improved. The homemade soups were absolutely gorgeous the food was served piping hot, staff were lovely the service was fast even when super busy. It only works out £20-30 per person which is fantastic!

The pub was very busy with lots of families enjoying eating and spending time together so it was quite noisy ( in a nice way) and our table wasn't ready so we had a drink at the bar.. When we were seated we had quite a wait for food but when it did come it was delicious Between us we had ordered steaks, fish, sausages and roast beef all of it well cooked and well presented. The waiting was a little irritating but it is good to see a business so popular and serving really good food.

Decided at the last minute to go out to eat on a Sunday evening. Haven't been to the Old Original for a while so booked a table on line and half an hour later we were there. Seated immediately we walked in and ordered drinks whilst we looked at the menu. I plumped for fish and chips and my partner ordered the steak and cheese pie. Fish and chips were excellent and my partner said it was one of the best pies she'd ever eaten (and she's eaten a few). Mushy peas were really good too. Only slight negative is that I'm not really a fan of chips with skins on but these were pretty good to be honest (we ate them all) and far better than the 'triple cooked chips' frozen in a bag that lots of places serve these days. Food was piping hot and served on hot plates. As I said it's been a while since we last visited but it won't be long before we go back. Proper old fashioned (in the best way) pub with a really nice atmosphere and good food cooked with fresh ingredients. Real value for money and spectacular views from the outside too :)

I came to The Old Original on Thursday for a meal with my new fella James. Although James is a chef at The Old Original, I was really impressed with all the staff, that we was still treated with the same service as customers. The food was lovely I had the battered mushrooms with alioli and Lasagne which was probably one if the best Lasagne's I have tasted I could taste the different layers rather than it being mixed together. All the staff was very welcoming and friendly.

So here’s a big shout out to fantastic service from Alex and Beth who gave us excellent service and NOTHING was too much. I’ve not forgotten (smiler) Lynne who was working the bar smiling like she had just won a million pounds. Oh and Manager Richard who was so funny and warm and welcoming.

Went for a family meal (9 of us) Sunday 11th Feb, it was recommended as being really good. All had starters which were ok but nothing special. Had varying main meals incl chicken stroganoff which was disgusting, came with yellow rice in fact the whole thing looked like curry and tasted like slow cooker curry. Beef dinner which had beef from the deli rather than home roasted, veg and mash were hard, roast reheated. Meatballs were really spicy and hard to cut. A few meals Included chips but no, they plonked a dish of skin on wedges on the table to share Inc the kids who wanted chips, they passed this off as "they are our chips" but this wasn't mentioned when ordering, we had then got to reorder fries for the kids and they were even hard, who serves skin on wedges with chicken stroganoff????? Nobody came to ask if everything was OK and when we complained, all the manager could say was "sorry."We spent over £250 on this family meal and it all went back.Totally shocking experience and disgusting food, we will never go there again.

We regularly visit The Old Original as we like the simple not overpriced menu. It is a simple menu but all the steaks and meats we have had have been delicious. Its not posh and doesnt claim to be.

This was our first time going to The Old Original and it won’t be our last. We arrived early and despite having a later booking the staff accommodated us with no issues. Service was quick, friendly and professional, but you didn’t feel rushed. The establishment is well known for their steaks so we were keen to try, and they did not disappoint. They were cooked to perfection and incredibly tasty. The sauce and sides that accompanied it where excellent. It was a lovely meal and the place had a great atmosphere.

I hate complaining and I would love to say that the food was good, but it wasn't. I ordered chicken stroganoff with rice and chips. The sauce was flavourless. I found six small pieces of chicken which were ĥard, dry and chewy. It was bulked out mushrooms and peppers. I ordered off the kids menu for my 3yr old grandson. He had burger, chips and peas. He ate the burger bun, the peas and a few chips. I cut the burger up for him which was extremely tough. He said it was yak so I tried a piece, he was right. It was very tough, extremely salty and very peppery, not at all suitable for a child. We had a diet Pepsi, small and regular. The price was £26 which I thought was a bit steep. After trying the food I definitely thought it was poor value. Sorry for the bad review but if we don't complain it won't get better.

Popped in on our way back to Manchester. Probably my first ever visit but we used to regularly visit this area 40+ years ago. Very much focussed on food on this Sunday lunch but no problem getting drinks. Jorvic going for J.W.Lees bitter, very good. Oddly no cider on tap, only bottled. We all liked the look of the pub and food menu so hope to book and return for a meal. Parking is tight so you may need to walk 50 to 100 yards. We were there from about 2.30 pm for 40 mins. Possibly a lull between early and later eaters; seemed to be filling as we left. Small front patio for the odd sunny day. Good views. Historic list of previous Landlords. No Flat Erics though.

The Rams Head used to be somewhere we’d go for a special occasion when I was a kid and later for anniversaries as an adult. For whatever reason we’ve not been in years but booked this evening with friends and we were not disappointed. The food was, as I always remembered 5*. The service was spot on too. I wish I’d had taken the name of the lady who waited on tonight because we had a good laugh with her too. Let’s just say she doesn’t want to come hiking with me (you know who you are)! Highly recommend and we won’t leave it so long before we visit again. Thanks you.

I visited here with a friend recently ,all i can say is .what a incredible bar /restaurant. From the moment you walk through the door the vibe is relaxed and the interior is incredible with its rooftop level and outside orangery with retracting roof in summer is awesome.The bar has a great choice of alcholic and non -alchoholic drinks and the cocktail list is immense .The food menu is exotic and the choices of dishes always cooked to perfection, In all muse is a great venue for a family meal ,couple meal or even just a drink. Part of the muse complex is the ANNEX which is a private function venue available for private hire which really does have the wow factor .In summary the friendly staff amd managment combined with the beautifull tasty food amd interior design is a credit to saddleworth .recommended .
