I was told on the phone and advertised via Facebook that the pub took part in eat out to help out. We were charged full price unfortunately seems very dishonest.

Very clean and relaxed atmosphere. Was worried how things would be after covid while restrictions are still tight but we didn't need to worry. Very friendly and took advantage of the £10 off per person scheme.

Poor service, sat in side room and ignored by staff, not Covid related as other customers who arrived after us had food orders taken and served before our order was taken. Grey fish in fishfinger butty which was so deep fried it was chewy. Chips not chips but huge undercooked, non crispy wedges.

Overall, it was 'nice'. To be greeted at 11.58 when we had a table booked at 12pm with "you'll have to wait, we're not ready yet" was not the best welcome. On first glance, it seems as if the place is set up to deal with Covid regulations, but it was a bit inconsistent. There's a one way system, but the staff pass on plates, glasses, cutlery without a second thought. The amount of times we heard guests being directed to the outside bar, you'd think they'd put up a sign. There was just a general air of confusion for guests. We had the Sunday roast, again which was nice but the roast potatoes weren't freshly cooked which is a massive bugbear of mine. Lovely setting, lovely refurb, unfortunately I won't be in a rush to go back.

It was great to be able to book online. Covid restrictions and safety measures were well thought out and reassuring. Our puppy's first visit and she loved the doggy menu and chose sausages. Our meals were great and the service was spot on. A welcome break between the Entwistle and Wayoh walks

There was very little in terms of social distancing. Space between tables did not seem sufficient and a lunch for four people came to nearly £100. The food was okay but the lack of distancing made it uncomfortable and coupled with the extortionate prices made it a place we would be unlikely to visit again.

Lovely food and attentive staff but the atmosphere has changed, due to the processes that they have had to adopt. This it my first time in a pub/restaurant since lockdown restrictions were relaxed, so I think it will take a little getting used too. The staff did really well though and I felt they have done everything they can to keep us safe while providing a good experience. Thank you..the food was great too. Really nice experience.

Having booked in for 7:15 we arrived on time and were seated straight away. Drinks arrived quickly and order was taken promptly too. Food arrived quite quickly and portion sizes were very generous, ended up taking a doggy bag home. Food was tasty, we will go back here. 2 lager shandy’s and 2 main meals (chicken in a basket and cheese pie) and bill was £38 so definitely not in the cheap side.
