Gorgeous food at very reasonable price on the midweek menu. Lovely place and nice staff. Highly recommend the Mossley potato pie and the Kentish Vegetable pie - both cooked fresh and delicious. Thanks very much

Poor service and bland food with zero seasoning, the kids didn't touch it and they're not exactly fussy, I gave it another chance because it's a nice pub but never again.

Excellent meal on Christmas Eve. Good choice of specials and a good wine list. Good service and a lovely ambiance. It’s advisable to book.

Been a few years but what sets this place out from the rest is the quality of the steaks , locally reared sources beef absolutely spot on and cooked very well . To start the pea and ham soup actually full of ham not like other local places I have reviewed !Steaks amazing sides spot on as nd the Argentinian Malbec amazing . We will be back roaring log fires ? on a rainy cold Christmas Eve afternoon simply perfection

Perched high up with great views towards Manchester. 2 or 3 courses value for money meal option well worth it. Serving hearty pub food.

We went on a busy Friday evening for a Birthday dinner. Everything was perfect, the atmosphere, food & service. Would not hesitate to reccomend.

We regularly visit The Old Original as we like the simple not overpriced menu. It is a simple menu but all the steaks and meats we have had have been delicious. Its not posh and doesnt claim to be. Its clean and comfortable, love the real fire in the winter and great views in the summer. The waiting staff are super efficient and professional whilst friendly.

Had my 40th meal there ...firstly got told not to sprinkle anymore confetti on the table because it stains (but yet there was no coasters for the glasses) ok!!!! The food was vile!!! Had the burger ...the meat was so hard and tough...it was like a full bottle of sauce had been poured on it was drenched!!! And as for the staff...nothing special!!! First & last visit!! And the seating was a joke!!!And the cheap pies was full of grissle what my friend had!! If I could score zero stars I would!!!

This was our first time going to The Old Original and it won’t be our last. We arrived early and despite having a later booking the staff accommodated us with no issues. Service was quick, friendly and professional, but you didn’t feel rushed. The establishment is well known for their steaks so we were keen to try, and they did not disappoint. They were cooked to perfection and incredibly tasty. The sauce and sides that accompanied it where excellent. It was a lovely meal and the place had a great atmosphere. We will definitely be going back for seconds!
