We lucked out with this hotel! We had a morning flight out of Manchester and so we drove from my…read morehusband's hometown and stayed overnight in this super cute pub hotel. A MUCH better price than the hotels right next to the airport, yet this hotel/pub is just minutes from the hotel. The room was large and the bathroom was so nice and updated! The cow art in the hallways was sooooo cute! I loved loved it! The pub service could have been more attentive, but we were a little impatient as we wanted to repack for the flight the next day. The food was good! My husband enjoyed his flatbread pizza. My gammon steak was incredibly salty, like way too salty. Free parking. Easy check in/out Good WiFi We are back in the UK in August and we're already booking our overnight stay at this hotel. We're looking forward to it. Who says that about their night before a long flight?

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.

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!

We were staying…read moreat a nearby hotel and wanted something to eat on a specific day that we were in Manchester. We asked our hotel receptionists what was a god place to eat near the hotel and airport walking distance and they pointed us to "The Romper" although it's in an Odd location. The food was great. I ordered some kind of sandwich made with breaded chicken that was AMAZING. I recommend this. And the people were so so sweet. They took care of us in the most amazing manner ever. A hidden gem forsure. Great vibes here.

We were only stopping through for a couple of days, but still managed to pack in an afternoon of ales, cider and pool at The Cock and Pullet pub. It's a charming little pub chock full of classic English heritage. The staff were lovely and accommodating and the selection of ales, ciders and beers were most superb. If you find yourself up in this beautiful neck of the woods (it's literally right in the middle of the picturesque Peak District),I'd highly recommend that you stop in for a Tipple!

Super tasty quality food, I noticed that on the menu it even tells you which farm the meat came from, or where the ice cream was made etc. The Greek Lamb and the Gammon are both brilliant.

Very friendly staff when you could get a hold of one. We waited about 20 mins before anyone brought us a menu another 15 or so till they took our drink orders and another 20 mins before we were able to call over someone to take our order. Once we had our food and beer it was all good from there. Great food nice and hot. The wings here are absolutely delicious of your used to wings covered in sauce you won't get it here the sauce is drizzled on. Ordered the sharing platter for two cause well I can. The food is great and I am proud to say I finished it unlike my buddy. Who struggled ! They had a few beers on tap and were out of most of them so you should not even bother planning for that. I heard out side is nice but I was focused inside trying to get someone to notice me. From what I could hear it was noisy lot of kids outside. So yep that's it. Get the food, get beer in a bottle, be prepared to wait so bring a board game or something maybe a good book. Enjoy.

They have a lovely duck pond, huge play area and open space for kids to run around. Last night me and the Mrs popped in for a bite to eat as we had heard that they had a new menu and chef. We went disappointed, I had a falafel burger (not my usually choice of food) and my wife had a steak. Both were lovely and cooked fresh. The prices range from £6.50 (light bite) to £16.00 (steak) for main meals and I believe we got our money's worth for ours. I would definitely recommend this pub for a meal or just for a drink. The staff are friendly and professional and clearly take pride in their work. Also they always have around 4-5 cask ales on which are always different.

I have driven past here a great many times, but last night was the first time I have had the…read moreopportunity to visit the pub itself. This was a local CAMRA meeting, so we were fairly confident of finding decent real ale. The pub has obviously had a major refurbishment recently, resulting in a magnificent community pub- almost large enough to be a community itself! The bar and restaurant areas are welcoming and uncluttered. There is a large conservatory-type extension at the back for functions, plus a wonderful function room which gives all the feelings of a medieval banquet hall! The outside areas comprise a more than ample car park, a beer garden which could seat forty plus and a superb children's playground area. All areas were extremely clean and well-looked-after the toilets being small but very modern and hygienic. All staff encountered seemed to be interested in serving and knowledgeable about their wares the landlord especially so. The only minus points for me were the fact that I had to drive to get there and back, hence I could only have a few tasters of the beers, and the price of said beers. When pubs nearer home are selling real ale for between £2.30 and £2.70 a pint, £2.95 seems a bit much for somewhere that is off the beaten track. That said, I am still going to recommend The Black Swan to any friends for a visit.
