Great pub with very friendly staff and regulars. Lots of tvs for watching sports, a pool table room and nice beer garden. It has recently been done up so it’s really nice, clean and modern inside. Weekly band and quiz nights are good and they have function rooms for events. Would be good if they offered food or more snack options.

This is not the welcome of old, since James Main and his team have taken over its now a cracking pub, busy, relaxing and well worth a visit.

Recently worked with James and his team on a charity quiz night in the function room, they couldn’t have been anymore helpful or supportive. Nothing was too much trouble and all staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a great night. If your looking for a function room with helpful welcoming staff then look no further than The Welcome Inn Prestwich.

so happy I can call this place my local, the landlord and bar staff are all friendly and loveable people, its had a marvellous refurb and looks splendid, whether you want a quiet drink, watch some sport, play some sport or have a dance and sing on karaoke, this place can offer it all. there's various different types of things going on throughout the week that's sure to get people involved in one way or another. there's also a fantastic function room for hire and lots of parking space (just make sure you enter your reg no) also very dog friendly and a great beer garden for those up and coming sunny days (fingers crossed)

Just come back from a funeral and the after occasion was at this venue, the staff were really nice and the pub itself was warm and inviting, drinks were average price 5.5o for smirnoff and bottle of diet coke, we had a buffet so I don't know if it was done by the pub or externally it was very nice all in all well done.

Not really sure what's changed here, but last time we were in this establishment was over a year ago and it was just about average, at best. We only went in as friends had asked to meet there and I have to say, it appears to have changed, for the better. It's much cleaner than it was, the staff are much more welcoming and friendly. All in all, it's actually a nice place to go now. Try and keep it up.

Inadequate, poor management. No staff. Pub is full of drug takers and drug dealers. Decor is old and tired. New management seem to be in with the drug dealers dealing out of toilets. Popped in after walking my dog and had an expensive item stolen from me right under 2 cameras. James the new pathetic landlord has barred me because I made a police report after being robbed. He said if you ring the police It puts a stain on his name. Also Grace who was on the bar at the time told me 'it's only £50 it's not expensive' shr also said James isnt going to deal with police over £50. Maybe you should sort out the drug dealers from the normal people. He also complained that I was rude to Grace, one of his staff. I wasn't rude or nasty I asked her could I speak to James after the robbery and was told no so I rang the police and have now been barred for doing the right thing. Would not recommend to anyone with self respect or even dog walkers. One man goes in with a viscious labradoror and gets the rule of the roost. Been my my local for 20 years. Sadly joey holts Don't like local customers and prefer passing trade these days. On its last legs and ill be boycotting all Joseph holts pubs from now on after the level of disrespect I've been shown by the management of this once fine establishment. I'll also be complaining to the head office for this aswel.

I didnt go in for food but what I can say is the staff are super kind and welcoming and extremely helpful!! My cars tyre had blown on the way home from a park and i ended up pulling into the car park. The staff immediately came out and told me to pop my registration plate into the system so I wouldn't get fined and then offered us a brew. They sent somebody out to help us fix the trye which we are forever grateful for as we wouldn't have known where to start. The man wouldn't accept my money when hed fixed it. So nice to see such genuine kind people and we will one day return for food !!

Great pub, steeped in history and heritage. The usual selection of Joseph Holt beers. Built in 1936. Brick and half timbered exterior. The Bar Parlour on the right has a blocked up door which was the off -sales that ran down the middle of the present room i.e. it was a bar and a snug until it was all knocked into one in the 1980s. Good bar fittings - the bar back may be some old cabinet and doorway between two parts is 1930s but much new shelves, tiles etc. Original fixed seating at the front of the room. Gents here has old urinals but modern tiles. The main bar has fully panelled walls to picture frame height, a very good glazed stone and wood surround fireplace but fixed seating may be post war. The original bar counter with leaded panels reaching to the ceiling but a new counter top and the bar back is a mixture of old and new - all the lower shelves replaced by fridges. Dado panelling up the staircase to. Original revolving door replaced by exterior and inner doors but the curved panelling around it survives. The small lounge has a good carved wood surround fireplace from the 1930s but modern tiles and fixed seating may be original. The intact gents on the left were removed in 2009.

It's a great pub. All 10 of our group enjoyed the lovely service from the staff. Noting was too much trouble. And to boot was very tasty with a wide variety of dishes to choose from. I would go back if I am in the area. I opted for the beef pie, served with a gravy boat ,chips & garden peas. This is a Joseph's Holts pub. If you hop on the website, you will find something to tickle your tastbudds.
