Went there for preEmgland game only to hear the manager and assistant manager standing by the door passing racist comments. Spoilt the whole experience. Considering the venue is close to a major hospital in Manchester, this behaviour is unacceptable.

My wife and I have recently dropped in on several occasions for lunch and snacks and have always found the quality and value of our food surpassed only by the friendly and welcoming staff which has encouraged us to return.

I meet up with an old friend here each year, she has annual appointments at The Christie which is literally just next door. There are a couple of car parks attached to the pub, one either side. Not a lot of spaces considering the size of the venue and my friends had to park in a nearby multi-storey because there were no spaces and the roads adjacent are all permitted. This is a spacious traditional pub with a friendly feel. On arrival, we were served with drinks which were reasonably priced and there were menus on the table. We chose our meals and paid at the till and the food came out fifteen minutes later. I had the vegan burger which was served with chunky chips and was all delicious. the waiter was friendly and polite and all in all we had a lovely afternoon.

Came in for a quick bite to eat after a business meeting. The food was bland and very overpriced for what it was. Whilst ordering our food at the bar we heard one of the managers complaining about the staff that were on shift, who were apparently "doing f*ck all". The staff who were on the bar were lovely and very attentive, but our whole experience was soured by the attitude of the management. Left a tip for the girl on the bar, but will not be returning in the future.

It was truly the most terrible meal I've ever had. I Will never order a a meal there ever again. Nor will I recommend it. It was that rubbish I'm going to speak to the owners. Do not eat there at all

Lovely pub been there many times. Ordered a sharer dish yesterday, only to find out we couldn’t have it by a female member of staff shouting to a colleague “we don’t have any prawns so you’ll just have to tell them to order something else” unprofessional to say the least! We are paying customers not someone of the street after a freebie. Food was disappointing for the price.

Booked a table for 7 on New Year's Day as strangers to the area, purely on the fact it looked ok and was within walking distance of our accommodation. So went with no great expectation and were very pleasantly surprised. Service was friendly, quick and efficient and food was delicious. Interior of the pub nicely furnished and decorated, warm and comfortable. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit.

We first phoned for a takeaway here 2 weeks ago when our regular chippy was closed. We've been so happy, we're staying! They were immediately helpful & friendly on the phone, reassuring us that their chips are cooked separately in veggie-friendly oil (rare, but important as one of us is vegan). We phoned around 7.30 (having phoned 3 other unsuitable places before!) & they were due to close at 8.0 but were relaxed and happy to allow us time to get there. The chips were delicious, even towards the end of service. The fish batter (for the one of us that eats fish) was crunchy & tasty and the fish (huge haddock) was succulent. Mushy peas were lovely too. The cost was reasonable and the portions were generous. Our experience has been consistently good on 3 consecutive occasions, and we're staying! Highly recommended! Thanks! 👍👍👍
