The pub had just been taken over by new landlords and whilst it was there first day of opening and they were only offering a short menu until they sorted all the staffing and stocking required, the food was fantastic, home made with a lot of care and effort and all at a great price with great service. Ill definitely be going back! ***** I did go back (quite a few times) and Ill be going back just before Christmas to sample their Christmas menu The pub has had a bit of a spruce up and looks stunning!

We were in Marple and having a bit of a scout around on Saturday when we decided to do a properly…read more'old peopley' type of thing and just go out driving for a bit to the hills. Not massively too sure where we were doing, we headed up through Disley and then ended up in New Mills and then though "my God, it's lunch time - we need to find somewhere fast!" Luckily our handy Yelp app recommended the Pack Horse 5 mins drive up the road and a quick zoom up past lovely countryside led us to this little gem. Seating in the bar for around 40 (where you can eat), plus there's a more formal dining room attached, it was super popular with us nabbing the last table. The food selection is all about good proper pub food with around 10 daily specials. If the truth be honest I'd probably give the food around 3.5 as the fish and chips and homemade burger with chips we had was tasty but not the best we've ever had at a country pub. We did enjoy it though. I imagine this is great for a few pints at night (although you'd need a designated driver as it's up a hill and in the middle of nowhere) - and they had some pretty interesting beers on tap too. We'd pop in for food if nearby but there's probably better places within driving range that we'd likely venture to on a day out. Great views from here too!

A very old (1500s) pub that is clean and comfortable without having been yuppie-refurbished. See?…read moreIt IS achievable. Michael B having mentioned scampi about 30% of the way through the walk I was relieved to see it at the top of the menu board as lack of scampi would have cause lack of safety for aforesaid Michael B. Food came really quickly even though there was 7 of us. Scampi was of course great as all breadcumbed and deep fried things are. The chips were also really nice, fresh and crispy. Other people's food looked good too - the hiker's special involves a Cumberland sausage and a pasty, obviously. The vegetarian option also sounded appealing - red onion, leek and goats cheese. It's obviously not gourmet but it's very decent pub food and ideal if you've been hiking in the area.

Came here at the weekend after a group of us had been on a walk up the hills of Edale. After…read morewalking about 8km, we were all hungry when we got here about 3pm. The pub was fairly busy but we managed to get seats for all 8 of us. There was a big screen TV with the football on at the other side of the pub but couldn't really hear anything - apart from near the end when City scored. I went for scampi and chips. Its been awhile since had scampi and also, as Natalie has mentioned in her review, it was mentioned a good few times by Michael B. So I couldn't think of anything else and it was right at the top of the specials menu! The food came quickly. The scampi and chips came in a fancy "zip zag" sort of plate with the chips in a mini chip basket thing - the sort of thing you see in a chippy when you put chips to cook - but smaller of course. I actually saw something similar to this when I was in the Lowry Hotel few months ago. (Someone had a burger and it came in a wooden crate/box). The scampi tasted good but could have done with more, chips were tasty. Peas were OK but it also came with a bit of salad too. Overall decent pub food and perfect after walking.

Once he had found out that they do have food I decided on some pate - didn't fancy anything big as I was on my bike. It arrived accompanied with some nice bread and a bit of salad.

When the large bill came we felt it didn't quite have the wow factor we'd expect at that price point. I think I'd try again but not on a Sunday. At the moment, the much less lauded Hare & Hounds in Mill Brow I think is doing at least as good a job at a slightly lower price.

The traditional open fire type pub had been transformed with a very modern and quirky decor, which in my opinion worked. Very relaxed and friendly atmosphere, with attentive (but not overly so) staff. I opted for the chicken liver terrine and marmalade jelly which was well thought out and tasty. I followed this with the roast beef and Yorkshire pudding (had to be done really!). The meat was cooked well and was accompanied by a wide variety of well cooked vegetables. Home-made onion gravy and fiery horseradish cream set it off nicely. Finished the meal off with STP, which was lovely and came with very nice ice cream. My companion opted for the deep-fried mushrooms, which they thought were nice and came with a spicy sweet sauce that complimented it well. Their main of beef hot pot and dumplings was well received (maybe a little too piping hot to eat) but the dumplings were a bit dry, making them hard to eat. They finished their meal with Eton mess which was very nice and came with a variety of fresh fruits. The only small gripe was that the dishes felt a little over worked with garnishes and "food art", as if they were trying a bit too hard to impress, when the food did the talking very nicely for them without it, in my opinion. All in all very nice food and at 55 GBP including 2 drinks was very reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend and will be re-visiting again.

It has a lovely and cosy bar area with a good selection of ales. Our room was on the ground floor and was not far from the gents toilet! However, it was really quiet and there was a little corridor between room and toilet. The room smelt a bit fusty but it is over 200 years old and it was very clean. The breakfast was lovely, very fresh tasting. Good selection of cereals as well. There is parking directly opposite the pub. It is about 5mins walk from lots of restaurants and pubs. There is also an old fashioned sweet shop across the road from the pub, has an amazing range. Nice place to stay to explore the surrounding area.
