The Bells of Peover, Lower Peover

Seems that things have changed at the Bells since the last reviews were written. Although we didn't eat, we popped in for a drink after a walk yesterday and anything less like a "chain pub" would be hard to find. It now has an upmarket gastropub feel and the food looked extremely good, a little fussy even, and with prices to match. Slightly brisk and impersonal service at the bar, but I suspect they were busy: my partner had a (very good) cappuccino and I had a reasonable pint of Robinson's XB. Lovely location.

Raven Inn, Llanarmon-yn-Ial

Community-run since 2009 and, if our visit was anything to go by, doing well. Tasty scrumpy and a range of real ales, attractive pub and setting, friendly atmosphere and the food looked good. Regular folk music events.

The Sportsman, High Peak

Doing well under new, young licensees. Well-regarded locally for its food.

The Willeymoor Lock Tavern, Tushingham

Good location, nice interior, decent range of beers. Food seemed OK, a little on the "cheap and cheerful"side maybe. We sampled the ham sandwiches: good ham, but sliced (brown) bread.

The Nags Head, Haughton Moss

Only a brief stop while out walking, but seemed like a well-run place. Good chicken baguette (crisp salad, home-made coleslaw) and roast beef sandwich, nicely decorated, immaculate toilets, well-kept garden. Seems mainly food-oriented but there is a small bar area and the beer was good.

The Thatch Inn, Faddiley

Popped in for a drink at the end of a walk. Two real ales on offer when we were there. Decent pint, great building, well-kept garden (shame it's next to a main road), so no complaints - however, we didn't sample the food so can't comment on that score. Has a large car park (with overflow).
