Lovely pub - good food good atmosphere and friendly staff

Very cosy pub, Good Guiness and Tasty food

Hands down the best Guiness in the area. The foods honest and a good price too, and the service is second to none.

SFriday and Saturday night loverly friendly atmoshere, good priced beers

I love the place. My New Local pub

Nice place for a pint and food and friendly staff will come back

We went early Sunday afternoon for a quick drink and lunch. The food was good, the ambiance was calm, friendly and comfortable, and the service was good - very smiley and helpful waitress.

It was a sad occasion (funeral tea), but the food, service, and ambience were all excellent. We'll be back.

Lovely atmosphere, great staff. Enjoyable and overall a great pub

Fish and Chips were amazing. Service was great, polite and friendly.

We had a nice lunch here, friendly service. Will call back here again.

Absolutely amazing place, 2nd time visiting and was just as good as we remembered, staff are so friendly and remembered us from our first visit, the lamb roast was stunning and the cocktails were up there with the best I have had, a brilliant little hidden gem and we will be back 😄

We popped in here for a pint after a hike. They had a good selection of beers and their Guinness was great.

Called in for a drink I didn't eat but what I saw was good, nice pub

Absolutely the most amazing food service and the staff were exceptional the steak was to die for and the cocktails are out of this world according to my fiancee as she was drinking I was driving we are from Prestwich and will definitely be back here again thank you for such an enjoyable evening a perfect way to round the weekend off see you again soon

Excellent meal, reasonable prices, would recommend

If you want to have a taste of an authentic British pub atmosphere this is a great place to go. Isn't a turistic place, it's a cozy and warm pub with many locals having a great time. The food is amazing and their beer selection is great. It's a great place to watch sports and have a good time during their events. In summer you can enjoy your drink on their beer garden. I recommend it.

Great pub! Lovely food and drinks. Bar staff super friendly and accommodating. We love the old PC!

I cannot begin to tell you how amazing the food is in here. Their steaks are some of the best I have ever had and they are cooked to perfection. The gammon is so succulent it melts in the mouth and is a generous size too. The skin on fries are an absolute dream. You have to try the place, honestly, it's incredible.

Often eat at the old packet house when working in Altringham .I swear the food gets better every time I eat here .Just had a well done steak it was perfect Sirloin tasted like a Fillet.Would recommend all day long

I haven't been in since about 1987. All the regulars are probably dead now. I'll pop in to see how it is now. Ian. Aged 61. Was an okay pub when I lived on Navigation Rd. But that was from 1985 - 1989.

Best Gunniess around. Decent sharing platter

Visiting family from down south Went for quiz night.... proper pub...friendly service...loved it even tho we didn't win! 👍

Great food! Great atmosphere and a very cozy and welcoming pub! The new menu is fantastic with lots of options for different allergies/dietary requirements! Can’t wait to see what the beer gardens going to look like after its refurb! Nice to see the pub back to its best! Keep grafting guys!

Disappointing..used to be a good pub many years ago..Beer was of a poor quality despite paying a high price of £4.60 They do show sports tho.

Staff couldn’t be more helpful. Emily in particular doted on our every need. Nice atmosphere and pleasant company, would come again

Great pub! The food was homemade and the portion was large! The staff were first rate and couldnt do enough for us. Will definitely be going back!

Wednesday night for food fantastic homemade steak pie as a northern lad gravy to die for great staff friendly and engaging should be on anybodies list to visit and have a great night

We booked via the website for 17 people on a Saturday afternoon. The staff were very helpful in accommodating us. Service was exemplary and the food quality excellent. All meals, including the children’s were served together and hot! All round great experience and we’ll definitely book again soon. Hats off to Carl, Sharni and staff at The Old Packet.

Had a lovely lunch at this cosy, traditional pub, - very reasonably priced, food was delicious and the staff were friendly. A good pint of Timmy Taylors rounded it off nicely.

Staff are friendly & helpful. Food is excellent, the Chef obviously takes pride in everything that goes out. Will definitely be back on my next visit

Fantastic pub full of history and charm and 🐕 dog friendly

Hello, went for dinner last night. Food was excellent. And when I say excellent, I mean, not cooked like a formula menu that you get in a chain. Good choice of beers too. As Arnie says, "I'll be back"

Excellent value for money and good food. Early lunch 3 courses 15 quid

Was in Altrincham shopping and fancied lunch went to the Old packet house. Noticed lovely open fire , Sunday lunch was class. Very tasty. Have been repeat visitors since.

Staff are amazing. Food is delicious. Amazing pub. !!! 10/10

Great little pub, good food and beer, nice experience. I will definitely go again

Had the best Steak pie and chips in the old packet today. Delicious and great value Lovely traditional pub with roaring fire And they even had Guinness 00! Will be back again soon

Fantastic food, great atmosphere, and very friendly hosts, proper old fashioned Pub, with the the addition of tv's to watch the footy etc, will definitely go back.

Love this place. Cozy vibes. Great food. Good cask ale at brilliant prices. Can’t fault it. Log fire is amazing too.

Good selection of beer and good food. The Packet Platter today was spot on. Traditional pub with an open fire on winter days and friendly bar staff. Thursday night open mic evening too which is a good night too. Friendly local pub which is well worth a visit.

Pit stop after a trip to buy clothes for South Korea. Really friendly staff and a chilled atmosphere x

What a great pub this is! Lovely food and a very warm welcome. Definitely our new local.

Great food, traditional Sunday lunch. Good value and excellent service

Was pleasantly surprised when we visited. We needed to find somewhere to eat as our daughter was in a show at the Altrincham Garrick Play House. The food was excellent. I had fish and chips and the portion size was just right. The waitress who served us was also very pleasant and helpful.

Held a wake here recently. The staff were wonderful. So friendly. Food was great and pub clean and welcoming. Would definitely go again and recommend to all. The only thing I woukd say is that they need to sweep the pavement outside the pub. It let's it down. Give it a try. You'll be pleasantly surprised. 😊

Amazing food definitely recommend

Great proper English pub One of the last Beer well kept. New young landlord needs your support Locals Very welcoming

Really nice old school friendly pub full of quirky characters and lots of playful banter between all the punters meals were plentiful tasty and reasonably priced ,had a couple of nice cask ales 🍺

There was live music. Excellent band

Called in 04/09/23 and was very pleasantly surprised. Had a snack which was delicious and a couple of hand pulled pints of Blonde bitter which was fab! I will definitely go again & overall 5*****'s from me!

A big old pub , trying it's best in adversary

Never actually eaten the food. Great local. Well run. Decent pint or three.

Great little traditional pub, landlord is great and so are the regulars, local to my place of work so we go in there a lot 😁

Really good value for food and some tasty dishes too.

First time visiting the old packet . Staff were so friendly, served us at our table, food was delicious and was served realy quickly. Lovley atmosphere, very clean and tidy, will definitely go again.

Great friendly staff, with home made food.

The food was amazing. We didn't wait long for it to come out. The portions were generous and were pipping hot! There was a high chair for my baby and we sat in a lovely area away from the bar. The bar man couldn't do enough for us, kept coming over, making sure we had enough to drink and had everything we needed. Will definitely be going back very soon!

Only two cask ales on when I visited. This seems to be a good pub for Guinness, judging by the number of people drinking it. My pint of a Yorkshire brew was top notch.

Great food, friendly service, good atmosphere

Great pub Great staff and drinks plus food

Visit this place each time I'm in the area, lovely fires (when working) ale in good form, friendly staff

I met up with old work mates for a couple of drinks. Great atmosphere and top friendly staff ,lovely old pub . A round of free shots for our table was the icing on the cake for a great night in there. Cheers

New owners after a few bad ones. Much improved and lots of new ideas. Welcoming pub again.

Great old fashioned local pub. Lovely staff and takes you back in time in a good way

Friendly pub with great beers and lagers, highly recommended!

Historic pub, warm fire and Lymm Brewing's Bridgewater Blonde. What a packet!

Good beer in an old roadside pub. Pleasant service.

Top Boozer. Highly recommended.

Its been many years since I've been in this pub but it still has a great feel, warm and friendly.

Amazing Staff (Including Buddy the dog) and the best pint around. Highly recommend

Nice pub. Mega expensive. Same price for a lager shandy as a pint of lager, £4.80 or so, London prices.

Really nice pub with great atmosphere and friendly / helpful staff

Friendly staff, great food and Buddy the cocker spaniel!!!

How did I not know this was here. What a lovely pub, friendly team and scrummy food. Thanks very much.

Brilliant food great staff amazing pub best pint bar none highly recommend +++++

Do not leave a negative review as when you go back in for the first time in 2 years frying pan face refuses to serve you ,for no reason, never caused trouble, this is also the same woman who refused a 10 year old kid a glass of tap water when it was hot. I'd go over the road o the navi , a lot cheaper beer and food, better quality of staff to, even better go the quarrybank better food better beer and it is cheaper,

Lovely little pub, really friendly and welcoming staff and amazing food

Great food great service great beer highly recommended.

Food very good at reasonable prices. Service quite good although our order, for 3 people, wasn't written down resulting in one item being forgotten. I had to remind them and we were half way through before it arrived. They didn't charge me for it.

Nice home cooked food, cant fault it, cost atmosphere at lunch time

Great pub and warm welcome good night out

Proper old style drinking pub , background music some what dated. but very good atmosphere. Dog friendly. Food served.

Great pub, with a relaxed atmosphere, serving cask beers.

Pleasant pub, a little costly for a pint (Altrincham prices are probably fair). Only negative £10 minimum on card????

Lovely place. Very friendly traditional pub.

Lovely people, lovely food and great beer, what's not to like 😊😊😊

Very pleasant local, cask beers well kept and food is basic pub grub but good value.

Nice place, beer garden needs a bit of a lift but worth a visit

Excellent food. Very good service. Will go again.
