Islotated Robinson’s pub built in 1830 by Macclesfield Banker John Ryle after new A357 completed. At 1690ft asl is 2nd highest pub in UK. Caters for all who venture over the pass with Carvery, Lounge Bar, & Walkers Bar with pool table. 3 Robbies beers in good condition and takes in-house guests. Good food especially the home made pies. Pie & Pint nights are great value at £8-95. Open all day, but closes earlier in winter. Friendly Landlord. Accomodation at nearby Stanley Arms.

We went up there for a family lunch today - kids, us (parents) and grandparents - and were very impressed. Apart from the great location the beer was well-kept, the staff were very friendly and the food was excellent. Notably the kids food was all home-made so the chicken goujons and funky fish were actually made from real chicken and fish. These were served with home-made chunky chips too. The adult food was really nice too, nothing fancy just well made stuff like Steak Pie, Slow-braised beef (which is what I had) and Fish & Chips.

Having read the "What kind of reviews are allowed?" section I will keep this to the point so hopefully it won't get deleted and others can read it. I and a few mates who are in a Mondeo online forum (MEG) planned a visit here on one of our monthly meets. We pulled up onto the car park and were having a bit of a chat before going in and the landlady came out and confronted us. She demanded to know whether we were going into the pub and I said yes. I was eating a pie for my breakfast and she said I couldn't eat it in her car park as she sold food in the pub so I should leave the car park. I obliged by moving off the car park to finish my breakfast, she stood there watching me and then ranted that we must all go and we did. I must add that I am 41 years old and my wife and two kids were in the car. As we never actually got in the pub I cannot comment as to it's quality. The road leading to it and past it is very good. I suggest you stay on the road and find a more welcoming pub elsewhere.
