The Church Inn, Prestwich

@loudnproud. I put a review on here re. personal hygiene and had a swipe at the staff, maybe a tad harsh but I too stand by that I said. Jollypinkgiant took your comment on because it seemed like you were presumtious on most points. As to writing a review without mentioning staff/owners etc. it's not easy as pubs by their very nature depend on friendly service and in this pub it's very selective. I live locally as my tag suggests and know like most others if your face doesn't fit in there you will have to wait forever to be served (fact). Now you are probably a friend of the current landlord and I'm sure you're treated well but have a word with others who he chooses to dislike on a whim and see what they say.Getting back to the personal hygiene attacks I agree with you that they are uncalled for but using the lavatory and then serving without washing ones hands is also uncalled for.regards localperson2

This old and once well run pub has been dragged down by the current owners and unfriendly barstaff. To anybody considering eating there let me tell you that the landlord (the one with the ponytail) doesn't wash his hands after using the loo.His wife trudges around the place like she has just found out there's no Father Xmas and the shortarsed barmaid is truly the rudest thing on the planet. Beer prices are (I think) the highest in the local area although the ale is kept well. Yes a plus point there did you spot it? There are plenty of locals who don't go in anymore and that's down to the general unease they feel when poneytailman stands around giving customers the beady eye. Not for me thanks I'll wait until they've moved on.
