The Royal Oak, Ramsbottom

Hygiene extremely poor, avoid this public house. On going to the toilet a person I knew to be part of the management came out of the cubicle, DID NOT wash their hands- and as I followed them out they immediately went back behind the bar. Then proceeded to serve customers touching glasses and bottles and of course customers hands as they exchanged change.
It is common knowledge how quickly bacteria and ecoli spread from the disgusting habit of bar and carering staff NOT washing their hands.
If you want to avoid stomach pains and a bar where the management do not even wash their hands after using toilet cubicles do not use The Royal Oak at Ramsbottom.
We left our drinks and moved on to another pub, where some locals told us they were not at all surprised by what we told them. The Royal Oak has a clean facade, but the hygiene levels are atrocious behind the scenes.
