| Beer better kept now, and has a community atmosphere. Wish the new landlord all the best; it's obvious he genuinely cares about the place and is determined to give it his best shot. whothefox - 20 Nov 2010 04:48 |
| Just like to say that the old landlord has now departed and the pub has had makeover. The pub is back to what it used to be like , a good village pub with good beer, food to come and filled with locals and run by locals. Nice to see it back to normal, anybody wanting a decent pint, give it a try, you won't be disappointed. thenextbigthing - 11 Nov 2010 10:48 |
| Well after visiting the place quite a few times, it appears that the more critical reviews are correct - they've made a right sodding hash of it. It may have helped if they had actually moved in, rather than commuting from Oldham to open. Closing Mon-Thurs and only opening Friday 7 - 10 wasn't the shrewdest idea. I understand the landlady is ill, but she was before they took the place; what were they thinking? On speaking with him, he appears to be an idiot, complete with vacant wide-eyed naive gawp, like a child gazing at a fairground goldfish. I've not even heard of a decent pint there - all the ones I've had have been shite and the food was laughable... if you were observing other victims that it. Cut your losses and leave now. Do not pass 'Go'. Do not collect £200. whothefox - 27 Aug 2010 11:02 |
| Interesting to note that all of the positive reviews have been made by people who have joined BITE shortly before reviewing, and have never written any review about any other pub before or since. Call me cynical, but I think that more than a little suspicious. whothefox - 28 May 2010 03:22 |
| I ate in this place recently and have now come accross this review site. Very interesting...the in depth, detailed reviews are highly critical where as the 'two liners' are favourable...sounds suspicious to me and I think J. Bean's recent comments: "sounds like the Land Lord to me"-11/4/10 may have an element of truth. I am a trained Barrister and I smell a rat! If this is the case, and I strongly believe it to be, I suggest the Landlord concentrate more on the in depth reviews and making appropriate improvements and less on producing two line responses to counter them. This helps nobody in the long run. As for my visit (Wed. 28th April 2010), all I can say is that I echo the in depth, well thought out comments of; sj32 and J. Bean. The service was shoddy, the meal was bland and the general atmosphere, well, imagine a Mortuary - you get the idea. I will re-visit this establishment in a few months to see if the Land Lord heeds my advice, ie - less two line ripostes and an attention to basics when it comes to service (improved manners), meals (hire a new chef) and hygiene (the toilets were dirty). At this time I recommend that any readers give this place a wide berth. In a few months, and upon my next visit, I will repost a further update in the hope that there are some improvements that I can report upon. I hope that this proves to be the case. D. Bailey.
