The Pig On The Wall in Tameside

Well decorated and attractive pub and it appears that they've incorporated a lot of the previous building such as stone flagstones and tiles in to the pub. The staff were friendly and the meals we had were excellent. Unfortunately though, as non lager drinkers there is no cask ale. Not even any bottles of ale so we had Guinness which was far too cold. After finishing our meal we left to go for a decent pint of bitter elsewhere. Such a shame because it's a lovely pub.

Great food, gorgeous pub will be going again very soon

We have just moved into the area and decided to take a chance on this place after a long day of unpacking. What a wonderful evening we had! We were greeted and served by Luize, Kate, and Sue who were all very warm, welcoming, and inviting. The food was gorgeous and exactly what we needed, and the atmosphere was great (I'm an 80s child and to hear lots of the music of the time was just the icing on the cake for me). Firmly think this will be one of our favourite places for the foreseeable future! Thank you guys for making a very hard day that much more bearable!

I tried today this daily dish It's called chicken madras It was the first time I tried it, and usually I don't like spicy food, but this plate is more than delicious, it's highly recommended

Good place actually very nice toilet personality is very apologize

Not been here for seven years a very busy pub with great food ,beers and wine cocktails has some history too you will not be disappointed, good car park and the prices for all drinks are sensible.

Food was bang on spoke to the head chef also Ryan and had a good laugh his ways of Doing and making the food is better than anywhere else around droylsden .

Came in for some quick food. I can tell you it was very quick, aimee and siobhan was our servers they were wonderful, very happy and lovely (if your having a bad day they will put you in a good mood). food was amazing and can tell it’s cooked with passion. The place smells so clean and a great outdoor place. 100% recommended and we will be back again

Sit down, get a brew and a bicky. Here’s the reason we are barred from the PIG ON THE WALL Droylsden, after 42 years of our custom. Roge quite wrongly swore in front of a member of staff. His words were “ it’s a f*****g joke“ he has apologised to the manager, and his apology was excepted. The first incident was months ago. We booked a table for a meal at 6pm. We ordered our food at 6.10pm. We waited and waited for almost an hour !! There was a family next to us who had arrived at the same time and had also put their order in. We asked the waitress ( the owners daughter)how long will our order be, she went to the kitchen and returned. To then tell us, sorry, but we haven’t got most of what you have ordered. We couldn’t understand why we weren’t told straight away. We asked “ what have you got then”, she replied “ I don’t know, it’s not my fault”. We asked if we could speak to the chef, to see what he could make us. He came to see us and we were told that the waitress didn’t put the order in ! He also said he doesn’t understand why she said our order wasn’t available. Everything we ordered WAS available. He apologised and we received our food. It was delicious. The family next to us, then asked how long their food was going to be. The same waitress replied “ the kitchen is closed” they had been waiting for an hour and a half !!!!! We offered to share our food, but they quite rightly upt and left in disgust. We then had to put up with the same waitress huffing and slouching around our table while we were eating. I asked her if she was ok, to which she replied “ I’m tired, I’m on my period”. We vowed to never eat in there again. Roge put a review on the next day. He didn’t go into details and didn’t mention the Period comment. The review was taken off straight away. I think this is the real reason behind us being barred. Even though it was months ago and we have been in for drinks numerous times since. Second incident . Quite stupidly, we thought we’d give them another chance. So, we nipped in for a QUICK meal. We ordered homemade soup with a toasted cob and a Caesar salad. Simple and quick we thought. The soup was delicious but the toasted crusty cob was one slice of dry white bread. Never mind we thought. It gets better ! My Caesar salad arrived, minus the sauce and croutons as advertised. It was just lettuce,red peppers and chicken. I asked where is the sauce and homemade croutons? The waitress said “it’s underneath”. I digged around, but there was definitely no sauce or croutons. When I told the waitress, she asked me if I wanted them ! To which I obviously replied, erm, “yes please”. She took it away and I waited for ages. 3 members of staff over the period of about half an hour went to ask where my food was. When it eventually arrived, it has a white sauce ( not Caesar) and croutons on it. The waitress asked if that was better, to which I replied “ yes, lovely, thank you. I began to eat it and the chicken was so dry I couldn’t cut it. I put it in a napkin and gave it to a member of staff for her dog. We joked about it but didn’t complain. I basically had lettuce and red peppers with some watered down mayonnaise. When Roge went to pay, they took full payment. I said “ I don’t think we should be charged for my bowl of lettuce that took forever to arrive. The waitress understood and asked another member of staff if we could have a refund. The girl said “ you were asked if your meal was ok, and you said yes” so you can’t have a refund. I explained, the reason I said yes, was because she asked me as she put the plate in front of me, and because I saw the the missing elements to a Caesar salad were there, I said “ yes, that’s much better than you”. The snooty barmaid said you can have 10% and that’s it. She was so rude. We never complain. We just thought well hey, we just won’t eat in there again. But, because of her rude unprofessional manner, she basically called me a liar and replied “ you said you enjoyed your meal and that’s that” Roge was fuming. The only liars in that pub were the chef and the waitress who told me the ingredients were underneath !!! To which Roge said “ it’s a f*****g joke”. Now, this was about 3 weeks ago, and we have been in loads since. So why, when we went in yesterday, were we asked to leave, because tho owner didn’t like the way Roge spoke to a member of her staff, who happens to be her other daughter. We were in the night before and had a great time with the customers and staff. I even intervened with a couple of ladies who were arguing and we walked one of the ladies home. We are nice people and have NEVER caused any trouble in 42 years of going in our local. Even the manager who had been told to bar us, couldn’t believe it. Roge asked to speak to Jo the landlady to apologise but she was too busy ! Rant over !!! Phew !!!!

The Great little local pub with good facilities and playground for kids. The food is good but it's unpredictable whether you will get a table or not as the kitchen seems to close at random times when they are short staffed. Events such as karaoke and live artists are hosted quite regularly. Good size carpark. Dog friendly. Wheelchair access. Smoking area and beer garden

It’s our first time having our tea at the pig on the wall after enquiring during the week the staff are absolutely fantastic service is just wonderful food was gorgeous!!! And the way they was with our kids was priceless 100% recommend and we’re definitely coming back!! We was looked after by Siobhan absolutely lovely young lady!!! Cannot wait to see her and have tea again!! Xx

Good food and Siobhan was an amazing waitress!! The steak was exactly how I asked. She also was very quick to bring my drinks!

Nice cosy pub. Decent prices,friendly staff and super clean.

Bobbed in for lunch with the missus on a random one Friday lunch. Met by I think Amy and Tina. Very attentive both a good laugh. I had the burger, wife had the fish and chips and I'm gutted I didn't go for the fish and chips, don't get me wrong burger was decent coleslaw was spot on but tried the missus fish and chips and really should of gone for that tbh. Service fantastic, nice clean place. Food though was spot on and the girls fantastic. Kudos to the chef because portion size presentation and quality was top tier. Been a few places around the area and this tops them easily

First time coming absolutely amazing for food, and staff are tentative and friendly

Had a wonderful day yesterday. The food was amazing. And service was first class. Will be revisiting very soon.

Only popped in for a drink. Lovely singer on, people were singing along.

Nice place and decent food. Pleasant staff, young girl who served our food was very helpful and smiley, also a young fella behind the bar, think he was called Alex ? He was very good too.

Great music. Service was wonderful. Food was tasty. Dogs are welcome which is always a bonus. Team were really lovely, helpful and had a great chat with them.

Listen! Bartender Alex! Best raspberry mojito was incredible! Also 3 blowjobs for £9 CANT beat that can ya! Great customer service Food was good, apple crumble is great! Kate did spray my drink while cleaning, but we move. Would come again

Amazing food, Great atmosphere, beer garden and friendly helpful staff also a great range of drinks 🙂

Phone up ask what time food stop serving told 7pm Turn up at 6pm Turn away local walk in got food straight away never going again bi use pub over 25 years

Nice pub fantastic beer garden DJ on a Sunday

Great staff lovely food & always a great time with entertainment every weekend

Excellent service by Siobhan. Food was lovely, would definitely recommend a visit

Great little pub in Droylsden. Food was lovely as was the atmosphere and service. Can definitely recommend the Hunters chicken and homemade lasagne. Thank you to our waitress Siobhan

I go on a Tuesday to play bingo n a quiz, which I really enjoy as it gets me out n about. So I meet my friends n we have a chat then we play bingo n have the quiz. If you want a cuppa they can accommodate you. Sometimes they put snacks out so you can have a snack while playing bingo and it's a really nice atmosphere.

Lovely little local pub , great atmosphere and staff . Quiz night on Thursdays and music / DJ at weekends . Serves food and has Moretti on draft which is always a bonus and on occasions has special entertainment guests which is usually ticket admission only .

Amazing food, I had the seracha burger it was massive loved every mouthful and we had fantastic service from our server Tina so friendly and very helpful, will definitely be returning

Gorgeous food, lovely helpful staff.

beautiful food very friendly staff couldn't praise Siobhan enough very efficient. Food was fresh and served. in timely manner

Lovely food and great to see the pub back to itself again! I ordered the fish and chips both were lovely, my partner ordered the roast dinner which she said was good (she said the beef was so tender!) but she said her only comment was she only got two roast potatoes with the dinner and a couple of roasted parsnips. For around £14 for a dinner she would have expected more and left feeling hungry still :( Otherwise we love this pub for food and we are happy it’s back to serving food and great drinks again. Hopefully a few minor items will get changed following feedback

Came here for a birthday lunch and the food did not disappoint, not only were the portion sizes generous but it was equally as delicious. Service was very slow for a Wednesday lunch time waiting 25 minutes for food and my brother ordering 10 minutes after us waiting 45 minutes for food. Other than that, food is great and drinks went down nicely.

Came tonight for tea, staff have are amazing, so friendly and polite. Had the steak sandwich and sausage and mash both really nice burgers looked amazing, will be back again soon.

Went in at lunchtime with my toddler for something to eat. Purchased the cheese pie and children's Chicken nuggets. Both plates were absolutely delicious. Staff were super friendly. Only a 10/15 minute wait after ordering. Very happy to make adaptions to my order changing peas to Beans on my dish and swapping an item on my sons plate with an alternative. We were allowed to sit where we wanted and had a lovely experience. I understand the pub is under new management and my 4 stars instead of 5 is because of a few improvements I would suggest that would make the experience better. They are - More vegetarian options. Looking at the menu I think they could very easily have more vegetarian options without having to change the menu. For example Sausage and Mash could have a veg alternative if they served both pork and quorn Sausages. The fish and chips could have a a fishless Fillet or halloumi filet. The katsu curry could have a quorn Chicken alternative or just have a plain katsu option. Myself and other customer tables asked for Mayo with their food so maybe just have the bottle on the table with the other condiments provided. The outdoor play area could really do with an upgrade. The current climbing frame has seen better days. I think a new climbing frame and perhaps a swing would be wonderful especially with summer coming I think the children's menu was quite expensive considering it doesn't include a drink. £7 for just the main meal means I probably wouldn't come here regularly as its not budget friendly. The last 10+ cafes/pubs I've visited usually charge around £6 for kids and this includes a main, side, drink and dessert. For example there's another food establishment 5 minutes away who provides this children's deal for £4.50 It would be nice to have a lunchtime deal menu. Perhaps main course and a drink for £10 or two main courses for £15 or buy one get one half price. Possibly an early bird offer between 12-3pm weekdays. Something along those lines. These are only little things that I think could make a great improvement. Overall the food, staff and atmosphere was amazing. Its just not a pocket friendly place at the moment for myself personally so I'd only pop in once in a while at present as a treat

Really friendly local pub perfect for a relaxed night out

Myself and five of my very best friends enjoyed a wonderful evening here last Friday 12th April 2024. Very warm welcome and our food was absolutely delicious, lots of choice and served by a very nice young lady by the name of Lutze who was extremely nice, pleasant, helpful and friendly. We all agreed it was a brilliant evening and look forward to coming again soon. Will highly recommend to family & friends for sure xxxx

Amazing service from the barmaid siobhan made us feel very welcome great service great attitude and if this lady is a manager she does an outstanding job would highly recommend this pub and the service was immense

Just popped into this pub for a break and a soft drink, and while we were in their we grabbed some food, and WOW, it was lovely tasted fantastic good prices and the service was second to none, Thanks to all the Staff and see you all soon.

We went in to try the new menu after the pub had changed owners. The food was lovely,the staff were brilliant, especially Siobhan who was very friendly,attentive and couldn't do enough for us.

Lovely place for lunch, we went with our baby and the lovely Amy kept popping over to have a squish which allowed us to have some time together. Amy is great, she's always so friendly and welcoming. She's such a bubbly personality which instantly puts you at ease. Can't recommend enough!

Amazing place to eat and food for a social drink with friends, food was spot on, service was great, epically our server Siobhan she was amazing, really friendly and helpful. Kids loved it, have outdoor play area for children, Would definitely recommend

Stopped here for Lunch with the family after a friend's recommendation, and now we found a new favourite place to eat out! Don't know where to start with the food, it was cooked to perfection! Our lad, who usually gets told off for wasting food, literally cleaned his plate! Portions are very healthy, so value for money is proper! We were looked after by Tina, who is very attentive and can't do enough for you! Offerd to come to the bar for our next round of drinks and she wouldn't have it, insisted she brought them to the table for us! Honeslty would recommend this place to anybody looking for a good feed with impeccable service! It's a nice pub aswel, lovely building with loads of character!

Went out for a day out with friends and couldn’t have asked for a better afternoon out, great food, great service and lovely atmosphere. Our waitress Siobhan made the service excellent, met every need and always made sure her customers were well treated and kept happy throughout.

Since the new owners have took over I have been in quite often for drinks, the atmosphere is always brill with lovely people and lots of entertainment, you can tell that staff members pay attention to lots of regulars orders and drinks are ready before they walk through the door. Hats off to Tina,aimee,millie and siobhan they are all so welcoming friendly and full of personality. I have had food a few times and is always top tier, fresh food and never a long wait. 5 stars all round. Brilliant staff.

I went to the pub for the quiz night which was very busy. Siobhan worked really fast and got everyone's drinks sorted very quickly, Siobhan was very friendly smiling for the whole night and taking time to speak to every customer. I would recommend this pub to anyone looking for a great night in a friendly environment.

Went for a dinner with my partner. Food and and service was lovely. Our server Siobhan was amazing, really friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend

Came here for my nanas retirement dinner. Portion sizes are generous for the price, food is incredible!! 3rd time we’ve been now and the standard of food does not disappoint. The chefs Tyreece and Jordan are super friendly and definitely know how to cook. Can’t recommend enough, food is fantastic, staff are really welcoming and such a nice atmosphere. See you all again soon

We walked in on the off chance of grabbing a bite to eat. It was very busy but they found us a table for 2 and explained there might be a wait however we were tucking into our gorgeous food within 45 mins. The food itself was delicious and well presented. The waiting staff were courteous and very friendly especially Izzy.

I've been here quite a few times, now I wouldn't want to eat out anywhere else. The food is outstanding compliments to the talented chef, my food once again amazing. He obviously takes pride in his work. Milly served me once again and what an absolute sweetheart, professional and prompt. Lovely atmosphere. 10/10. Thanks guys. 😁

Popped in for some dinner early evening after hearing some positive feedback since it was taken over and it did not disappoint! Staff were really polite, welcoming and friendly. The food was absolutely delicious, we had 3 courses and it was really reasonably priced. The bar was back to being full with a nice range of drinks to offer and even bar snacks. Will absolutely be calling in again and really happy to have the local pub back to feeling like a pub!

I went today with my partner for lunch. The food was lovely and the staff are really friendly and helpful. we had a great time. Will definitely be back. I would recommend the pig on the wall to anybody whether it be for food or just a nice drink. Overall 10 out of 10.

Only came in for some lunch was really nice much better then it used to be nicely priced to always a bonus when u can bring your dog

The staff was amazing especially Lizzy and the bar manager, we have been twice now for food and it was lovely both times, we will be back, it was my husband’s birthday they even put candles in a cake for him 😊

Took my Auntie for lunch, first of all we was greeted and seated by a lovely lady called Tina who had My Auntie and I smiling and feeling relaxed within seconds, very polite and nothing was too much trouble. I had the homemade steak and Ale pie, and it did not disappoint! Every mouthful was tastier than the last, and the chips was light and fluffy, my auntie had a steak baguette, done to perfection, the desserts were delightful too. We will definatley be returning, compliments to Jordan the chef, 10/10... manners, politeness, and the food was absolutely gorgeous.. we will definatley be returning.. thank you Jordan and Tina for making our visit a good one

Booked a table at the pig for an Easter treat we weren’t disappointed, started with a drink before sitting down to eat. Easter egg hunt for children was already underway. Very friendly staff both behind the bar and serving meals, the meal was most enjoyable, large portions and freshly made, would definitely recomend.

Just had an amazing night in here, karaoke was spot on. Bar staff were amazing as usual and the landlady is exceptional. Local pub doing things correctly but not just for local people.

Went for lunch and thought we would try here has someone recommended! Absolutely stunning food and great service from Tina and Izzy credit to the pub made us feel very welcomed and extremely lovely girls and will definitely recommend to our friends

Food was lovely and staff are great too

Myself and my niece came in today for lunch.. the first person too Greet us was a lady called Tina...she greeted us with a big smile and a warm welcome...Tina was very helpful and lovely to chat too...we ordered our food after we got some...

Lovely home cooked food, really enjoyed starters and mains from the new chef! Nice and Friendly staff, looking forward to my next meal 👍

Staff was very helpful I didn't have food but my company with me did and enjoyed it

Tribute act came on late 8.50 couldn't hear what he was saying at front poor sound or c him he did walk around little bit not an ideal place for his act

Poor food , dirty tables , no mats on table , no saucer with your cup of coffee. Lager shandy tasted like zoflora even when sent back . The taste of the food was terrible . Avoid this place

Great place with great atmosphere and friendly staff

Excellent food at a good price. Family pub, with a range of children's options on the menu. Good range of beers with friendly staff.

Under new management as of December 2023. Ok place to have a drink. I cannot comment on the meals.

New owners....too early to tell if they know how to bring the punters in...Good luck...but its never been busy since Eileen ran it..

Used to have good food, but apparently not been service food for months. Shame as it used to be nice. For lease sign up outside, no wonder! £4.20 pint

Not been in the Pig for about 20 years and it's looking better now it's opened up and more open plan, using up the old toilet space. Called in randomly while we were in the area and lots of outside seating, a welcoming entrance and friendly bar staff and Reggie the guard dog 🐕 looking for some attention. Didn't try the food if it's still on, but we'll be calling back sooner than another 20 years to enjoy the proper local pub atmosphere ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Just had non alcoholic drinks as I was driving

No neck oil, Heineken, fosters on tap. Right we'll have moretti, none either (shocker). Coke from 1.5L bottles instead of from drink dispenser, why bother opening. Feel this place won't stick around much longer. Cash only says it all really. Such a shame as it is in a great location and used to be a great place.

Lovely pub and lovely staff. Was served by a woman called Aimee who was so happy and helpful to us made us feel very welcome. Just wanted to leave a review for her really because she was so very kind and funny it makes a...

Fairly quiet when got there but getting a bit busier as leaving, early evening. Nice pub 👍

First time here, celebrating my friends birthday! Absolutely loved the atmosphere and live entertainment. The bar staff Molly and Jake were lovely!

Called in this pub after local recommendations, it was quite busy when we arrived but was greated by a young girl who was very polite. As a family of 4 we all had some food, although the menu was a bit limited we did all...

Came in for drinks on a Saturday night as we have family in the area. For a local pub we were pleasantly surprised with the decor, it had a great feel to the place. They had a DJ on which added to the atmosphere. The...

Booked here for mothers day for a family meal. Arrived at 3pm for our booking and was seated on a dirty table in the corner with barely any lighting, but that is that. After being seated was given menus and then told literally almost everything...

Visited here today for lunch with a friend, really comfortable, friendly, warm and welcoming, person who served us SUPER LOVELY, but biggest surprise was the menu, we weren't expecting a Caribbean option and as a Pie and Mash girl surprised myself by ordered Jerk Chicken, friend ordered Curried goat,beautiful never had rice as fluffy EVER, chicken very tender, will definitely be going again.

We were visiting family having travelled from Hampshire earlier in the day. We booked a table here based on TA reviews. How wrong they are. First off, we were told that dinner service finished at 7:30pm! Then it became obvious from the me menu that...

I can honestly say that I have never has a worse pub meal. Tiny portions, horrible pies with hardly any filling and soggy, stodgy pastry; jerk chicken served without the rice and beans, but with piles of sliced, buttered bread. This pub might appeal to some but don't go for the food.

I can honestly say that I've never had a worse pub meal. Tiny portions. Horrible pies with hardly any filling and far too much soggy, stodgy pastry. Jerk chicken (which I'm told did taste OK) was served in a miniscule portion with a bit of...

Great pub the food and drinks are nice and the staff are very welcoming. A must place to drink in Droylsden 😎🌞🍾🥂🍻

The Pig on the Wall is a lovely pub.

Lovely place to eat. Friendly staff, good food and great prices. Place was lovely and clean.

My friend an l came for tea today we can honestly say the food was absolutely fantastic we had the meat an potato pie it was done to perfection would highly recommend the food here an the staff was so good to 10/10:

Went for a family reunion. Food was not special but good enough to eat and enjoy. Welcome dogs

The whole experience of dining in the pub was excellent and they seem to cater for all types of family groups.

Very disappointed, food cold, pie pastry burnt had to request serviettes, salt and finger and then had to go and get it ourselves. Won't be going again.

Had a Sunday Roast here yesterday with 14 family members, some of whom I hadn’t seen for an age. The food was fantastic and the staff were friendly & attentive. A special thanks to Jenny, the Manager who I had been in contact with via...

The Pig on the Wall is a lovely pub. It's recently had some work done. The staff are lovely.

Great place to chll out, eat, drink and be merry. Staff are on point. Theres always something happening through the week and weekends at night.

Only in there an hour. But great little pub, great ambience.

They did the wake for my grams funeral. Lovely food friendly staff.

Not my usual kind of place but its a decent bar.

Was ok. Abit of a play area but nothing exciting. Friendly female bar staff

Not been in for a while but went in recently and it seems like a different pub the atmosphere in the place is great and the staff are really friendly the new manager seems to have made a real difference to the place we be...

We had a very nice lunch food was good & staff nice couldn't fault it, I'd definitely go in to eat again.

Not been here for a long time time. Food was excellent freshly prepared and good portions. Service was friendly and helpful. Would recommend

Food was great but really slow, 1hour and 45mins from point of order to receiving the food. Dissapointing considering we were only 1 of 3 tables. Decent selection of drinks and lovely front of house staff making it a 3*.
