The Ring O'Bells is a lovely little pub tucked away next to the imposing Parish Church of St…read moreElphin's, at the end of Church Street. It's easy to find, as St Elphin's 280ft spire - the third highest of any parish church in England - provides a perfect landmark. The pub is part of an attractive clutch of old buildings next to the church, and is Grade II Listed, although unfortunately there's a large Sainsbury's plonked opposite. Inside, it feels more like a country pub than a town pub: lots of tucked away seating areas (ideal for family or social groups) give it a cosy feel, with some old beams on the ceiling providing the right atmosphere. Real ale fans are well catered for with two regulars and three guest ales, although one of the latter was off on our visit. The food menu is extensive and features traditional pub grub, with main meals, baguettes, sandwiches and baked potatoes. There's a good vegetarian selection, too, and staff were friendly and helpful. The 10 minute walk to the pub from Warrington Town Centre passes several other old pubs, also serving real ale, on Buttermarket Street and Church Street, which would make for a perfect real ale pub crawl, ending at the Ring O'Bells. There's a bus stop a few yards away to get you back to the bus station, if needed!

They have seating outside so you can have a beer whilst admiring the old church and scenery and a large beer garden at the back, making it the perfect place to visit on a sunny day. Inside the pub is nice and cosy with comfy chairs, exposed beams and an old fashioned fire place. The food at the Rams head is also very good. They serve high end pub grub and in the week you can take advantage of their offer where 3 courses with a bottle of wine costs £16.95 per person. They also have a happy hour drinks between 3pm and 6pm, weekdays only.

You get a little biscuit with your tea or coffee too! bonus ;-) Would have got 5 but for the fact I tried the chips and though home made, they didnt taste that great. I am sure the rest of the food is lovely, it looks good from what i see as they serve people near me, the chips just werent for me, also no skimmed milk on my last visit, just whole milk so had to have a cup of tea rather than a latte. being picky really.. it really is a nice place :-)

That said it was my mother in laws birthday and I knew they were eating there in the evening with friends. I called up the pub to see if I could order a surprise birthday cake and pay over the phone. Although they said that they did not make birthday cakes they were happy to go to the local bakery and get me one I called up on the night not really expecting that they had as I had not been asked to pay anything. To my delight they had got the cake and I ordered a bottle of reasonably priced champagne at the same time. They couldn't have been more helpful even to the point of calling me back to say that my mother in law had almost been in tears when they gave her the champagne and told them my message. When the time for the cake came, they had added candles and the whole restaurant sang happy birthday. All in all they were great and made my mother in laws birthday really special!

Be prepared for lots of jumping about and dancing. Bar prices are standard for Warrington but i'd recommend avoiding drinking wine in here, it's not really the place for it, the choice is limited and from experience tastes pretty vile. I stick to spirits and mixers or bottles usually. It is £2-£3 for entry which in my opinion is steep but since you have to pay for entry to most pubs in Warrington town centre now a days you may aswell pay for one of the better ones, you receive a stamp on your hand allowing you to leave and re-enter as you wish. There is a decent sized courtyard with benches outside making it a popular choice in the summer and giving smokers somewhere decent to sit outside. The pub typically shuts around 3am on a Fri and Sat night.

I tried this out during the Wetherspoons, "Biggest Beer Festival in the World"…read more I know that they aren't responsible for the decor, but I was very impressed with it. The upstairs terracing was particularly impressive while the sun was shining! There was a choice of eight different guest ales on and they are running this, as current practice in a number of pubs, with the 3-for-1 offer. This is 3 third-of-a-pint glasses of different beers for the price of a pint - not really a bargain, but it does enable one to taste more beers without passing out. My wife and I had our normal two pints each, but tasted 12 different beers. This, of course, entailed going to the Friar Penketh to taste the extras! The service was good and the other customers enjoyable company.

It is a rather quiet English pub out in the country, with the rather charming interior that you would expect from a lot of these pubs. However, it also has a huge beer garden, which is delightful in summer, though I do have to admit that I've really only been in England during the summer so I haven't exactly experienced the worst that weather has to offer. Still, yeah, it's a rather nice pub.

It's set just outside the charming village of Stockton Heath and has that country pub feel without having to venture too far from civilisation. The bar stocks some good ales but I opted for Old Mout Cider, a fruity little number that was perhaps a bit too easy to drink, hence a sore head this morning. There's a lovely beer garden out the back with picnic tables, parasols and plenty of grass space for kids to run around. Staff are friendly and the locals seem like decent folk ( I certainly didn't spot any track suits, which is always a good sign). Food wise, we were treated to a delicious buffet of Thai fish cakes, chicken wings, salad and pulled pork, which was delicious. So judging by this, I would imagine their everyday food menu is pretty good too.
