Sunday Afternoon 261008
On a cold rainy Sunday afternoon we ventured in for a warm welcome and a hearty Sunday Lunch. We got neither. A large gent behind the bar decided to stop reading the paper and serve us two drinks with no welcome. I asked if they were doing Sunday lunch as there appeared to be no customers in the pub. Yes but you will have to go into the dining area where they will look after you. We went into the empty dining area to find no-one was there to greet or meet us. An extremely large lady appeared out of the kitchen munching on food and carrying sandwiches to the bar for the barman. I asked was she in charge of the kitchen to which she grunted ' er what' so I asked were they doing lunches 'er yes' was the answer. I asked to see a menu, having at this point decided that we would not be staying longer than the time it took to drink up. Where are the menus she asked the large chap behind the bar dunno he said. Then she found 1 and then a waitress appeared with another. I didn't even bother to read it but left - never to return. No wonder pubs are closing and I'd bet this one will be gone before we ever try it again.

Not a bad drinking pub in the fantastic village of Woodplumpton. Food's expensive and not much good really. Pool table upstairs is free with a fiver deposit for the balls, and it's like having your own private club up there, which is nice. Always got one guest and 3 resident ales on - currently Ruddles, Theakston and Bombardier. Average prices for drinks. Good atmosphere and generally friendly locals.
