This pub is in a really isolated location but it has a massive beer garden and really beautiful…read moreviews over fields. The pub is part of a chain so they have the same sort of menus and offers as other places in manchester, like the ashlea in cheadle hulme. They have a pretty standard selection of beers but its one of those places that only does alcohol free becks (why?!?!) Decor is pretty traditional with mismatched wooden chairs and wooden farmhouse tables. The butley ash has a huge fireplace which i was lucky enough to get a chair in front of and it was really warm in the pub. I'm too hungover to review this place anymore comprehensively but it was good. I didn't get drunk at the Butley ash, I went to someones leaving party.

My wife, daughter and I visited the Butley Ash for an early evening meal to celebrate our wedding…read moreanniversary. What a disappointment... The initial welcome was warm and inviting, we were allowed to choose any table we liked (there was only one other taken) and we chose a table looking out over the busy main road because it was nice and light in the window. Because of the nice decor and ambience we weren't expecting this to be a chain pub but so it turned out to be. Even so, the menu was slightly different to the usual pop-up pub fair and there was a nice list of specials to complement the large regular menu. My wife ordered an artichoke and goat's cheese gnocchi and I had teriaki surf & turf with our daughter having a tomato pasta off the smallish list on the children's menu. Their only draught ale was a well kept Old Speckled Hen as I was informed by the barman that a couple of their pumps were broken, it turned out this wasn't all that was broken! Before our meals were delivered (a good 10 minutes after ordering) the server came to the table to say that they had run out of soya beans. We weren't offered an alternative so my wife suggested they might substitute the beans for peas and he went off to inform the kitchen. After another 10 minutes or so our meals were served by a new server (shift change?). A couple of minutes later she returned to the table to check all was ok, we were still helping our daughter with her meal, so gave the obligatory 'yes, fine'. Things were not fine as it turns out. The gnocchi was served with peas which was as requested, what they had not told us when they declared soya-gate was that they had also run out of goat's cheese. However, they hadn't run out of goat's cheese rind! The meal had a grand total of about seven 5mm squared pieces of rind. In addition the meal was quite small, so perhaps they had run out of gnocchi as well! And this 'special' was £9.95! Before I continue I must say that the teriaki surf and turf was exceptional. The steak was cooked perfectly and the king prawn tempura was deliciously crisp and hot. The accompanying chips were a bit soggy but perfectly edible. Also judging by our daughter's plate the pasta was good too. When the server came to clear the table my wife complained that there was only goat's cheese rind in her meal and that it was relatively small. She retorted that we had not said there was anything wrong at the 'check-back' and that there was nothing she could do about it now! In all honesty we could have broken free of our English mild mannered-ness and complained mid-meal, but we didn't, however the way she dealt with it was very poor. She offered us a free coffee (as in one) - yeah right, the most profitable (ie. cheap) item in a restaurant accompanied by chef's special ingredient no doubt. We declined and asked for the bill. When the bill came, it was someone else's (and much more expensive otherwise I might have paid it). Eventually we paid the exact amount on the correct bill, no tip (that hurts me, I can tell you) and we left. Now we have heard many say that this is a good place and there are already a couple of 4/5 star Yelp reviews. Perhaps you should avoid the early evening, who knows, however the way they dealt with the problems probably means we won't be back to give them a second chance. Poor.

We thoroughly enjoyed our outdoor lunch at this historic pub. The food was spectacular, and we…read moreespecially loved the Steak and Ale pie for the depth of flavor, and the Salmon with mussels was truly phenomenal. It was a lovely way to spend an afternoon. There is a nice parking lot, lots of outdoor tables, and the WC was spacious and well kept. We plan to come back after Lockdown 2.0.

A lovely afternoon country walk in the autumnal sun was the order of the day yesterday and planning…read moreahead meant we booked 'The Ship' for 5pm after our walk at Quarry Bank ( a great NT site if you get the chance to go) 5pm seemed to be optimum busy time but the staff were friendly and courteous, while getting us settled in (FYI: We weren't told you need to open a tab and order all drinks and food at the bar) - but after being in here a few mins, there was only one thing on our mind and that was Sunday roasts after seeing the giant Yorkshire puds whizzing through. We chose the pub sharing platter to start between 4.5 of us (our 2 year old daughter has a great appetite...) which consisted of some great fresh pork pies, sausages, scratchings, bread etc - and then followed this with some tasty roasts (mixed pork and beef really hit the spot) - with all the trimmings - lovely veg and of course those ace Yorkshires (check out my pics) Dessert was tasty with a great selection - Eton Mess and Choc Brownie were awesome. We weren't drinking for various reasons but they did have a fairly decent selection of traditional ales and wines. The soft drink selection was great too - Fentimans all round for us. A lovely country inn, great food, drinks and surroundings - can't wait to go back!
