We moored on the pub mooring, room for two narrow boats. Dogs are welcome in the smaller bar area. Great welcome from the staff very attentive to our needs, on our numerous visits. Food is amazing. We ate on a Wednesday evening prior to quiz night, we were warmly invited to stop and join in.We had Sunday lunch which was very good, personal preference not keen on it being presented in layers like to be able to see the food and to be able to cut into it.Certainly do visit if you have not, we would return if in the area. Landlady Moira and her staff run an exceptionally good pub.

Hugely disappointing. We ordered a prawn jacket potato and a bacon & brie panini. The 'panini' was quite nice and fresh - but it was not panini bread. The 'marie rose prawn' jacket was awful. My wife wouldn't eat it, and after tasting it neither would I. We have eaten hundreds of 'prawn cocktails' in our lives and this was, quite simply, the worst we've ever had. To make matter worse, the staff were too busy chatting to each other to come over and ask if eveything was OK? As I was paying a waitress asked my wife if the food was OK - as she had noticed that the food was hardly touched. My wife replied that no, it was not OK, and was frankly inedible. The waitress shrugged and walked off. Sage to say that we will not be visiting again.

We had a lovely visit at lunch time. Made to feel very welcome, service was excellent and food very good. There was a good selection to suit most tastes and reasonably priced.

Lovely pub near the Anderton Lift! While moored up for the night we walked over and enjoyed the warmth of both the building and friendly staff. The food was quite delicious and drinks cold. Hope to be back!Vegetarian options: Really enjoyed the vegetarian burger with sweet potato fries and salad!
Met with other boaters here and was made to feel so very welcome, ordered food which came quickly (gorgeous lamb).Only downside was a lack of cask ales but after the heatwave who can blame people for rushing to have some!

Absolutely loved our visit! Food was delicious and plentiful. Very reasonably priced and served in quick shape time. The landlady welcomed us like we were old friends and made my whole family feel at home. Would definitely come back when we are next in the area and 110% recommend for everyone to visit this gem of a pub!Kid-friendliness: Welcomed them whole heartedly and made them feel part of the family at the pub.

The review below was left five years ago and reflected my opinion at that time. I have visited since and witnessed major improvement.Well done to those involved.Rubbish. Money has been spent but there is no oversight by management. No food. No atmosphere but what there is are complaints by the few people in the pub. The beers that they have are either too warm, flat or foul tasting. Even the locals complain and walk out. How can someone own a pub and not be bothered by how it treats it's customers. It seems the owner has not been near for over a week. The only upside is, the embarrassed lad behind the bar did his best to make the best of a bad situation. Next time I travel this way, I expect this place will be closed.
