The best restaurants serving British food in Royton North Oldham North West

Really lovely staff who can't do enough to help. I have only bought cake and drinks, but i haven't heard anything negative about this cafe.

As a party of 4 adults we went for lunch, having booked for 1pm. We all had different experiences with the food, hence the 3-point overall score. One meal, the steak pie, was rated very good; two meals, lasagne, had obviously been heated up in the microwave, making them extremely hot (burning tongue hot) & very dry & hard around the edges. The final meal was braised steak. The meat looked lovely, but in fact was extremely dry & stringy & a good portion had to be left. To give credit to the chef, we were told he was not happy with it & that meal was refunded. Where we were very unhappy was the service. Our waitress was very friendly, but we were sat with the menus for a long time before our first course order was taken. Once finished, we then had a long wait before anyone came back to the table so we could ask for the dessert menu. These appeared & we were again left to wait for our order to be taken. During this time most of the diners were leaving & eventually we appeared to be the only ones left. We were sat in a corner in the window. It wasn't until a different waitress came to start cleaning the table behind that we were able to order. As she took our order, at the same time she told us the restaurant closed at 3:00 pm. It was now 2:45 pm. We were all taken aback by this rude comment & the unnecessary way in which it was delivered, especially as the time situation was entirely brought about by themselves & their poor service. The two desserts, sticky toffee pudding & custard (which were very nice), one cappuccino & one decaf tea, we're delivered by this second waitress. As we started to eat & drink the lights started to go out!! The men were able to finish their puddings, as they were only warm, not hot, but the ladies were unable to finish their drinks as they were very hot, especially the cappuccino. We felt extremely rushed & it was an awful end to having a meal & catching up with friends. On leaving there were only the two young waitresses visible by the bar, & as we were saying our farewells outside, they followed us out. All the above totally spoilt the whole experience.

Met up with a friend whom I haven’t seen for a while .I decided on the Puckersley. What a disappointment,we ordered a chicken roast dinner ,the chicken was dry and chewy,roast potatoes were hard. After reading some of the reviews i just wish I’d read them before I’d gone Very disappointed and certainly will not be returning.

Had a great meal, love the new decor modern but not lost the character of the pub Victoria and all the other staff really friendly polite and helpful Great pub to visit especially with moretti being on special offer at the moment £7 for two pints. Carmen & Neil
