The food was lovely, The staff are really nice and gave me and my partner a warm welcoming and fast warm service. See You Again.

Popped into the Crown and Kettle Saturday afternoon 17/11/12 1pm the plan was to have a couple of beers with my sister and a meal before going to watch Man City playing Aston Villa I am a city fan. I had travelled over from Birmingham for the day where I now live and was waiting at the pub for my sister who was working at miles platting library. I walked in the pub asked for half of bitter and the bar man turned me down straight away after sizing me up and down first. He said that they did not allow trainers in the pub. I remonstrated with him and showed that I was infact wearing a pair of walking boots but he just sneared at me and said that they were the same as walking boots. I looked arounnd the pub and noticed it was quiet only a few people were in watching the Tottenham v Arsenal game but when looking at the foot wear of others I noticed some blokes were wearing what I would class as casual suede type trainers. I think the real reason if truth be known was that this bar man was a man united fan and obviously had some major predjudices against city fans. I had visited there a few weeks earlier before another city game and united were on the tv playing Liverpool nothing was said to me on that occasion yet I was wearing trainers then. It is such a shame that a nice morning planned with my sister who had visited the pub on other occasions and recommended it for a get together on saturday had been ruined by a jobs worth/ predjudiced idiot. I am a totally respectable 52 year old teacher who just happens to support city and wears a pair of boots to ward off the cold of the day. I wont be going there again and whilst I was in there I did not notice anything about footwear!!! Disillusioned blue!!

The place is dirty.. And the meat pies tasted and looked like they had been in the display for days. I couldn't take more then one bite. Very un hygienic

Amazing food every time, sticky toffee pudding to die for. with excellent service. Highlighly recommended for a chilled out evening meal or a lunchtime family get together.

Third visit this month for my wife and I and it just gets better,super pork,ham.turkey and beef and the carving chef is generous with the portions,the veg selection was again first classin particular the cauliflower cheese roast potatoes have become nicer,the gravies and all the sauces were excellent the only trouble is once you get you share and thelarge yorkshire on the top theres no more room fore anything else The Rudyard carvery caters for and should please everyone

Being a traditional, old school pub in the heart of Manchester's business quarter the Town Hall Tavern's menu reflects this and is comfortably conservative. Lancashire Hotpot rubs shoulders with Steak and Ale Pie and Cumberland Sausage. The emphasis is on home cooking, the pastry on our steak pie being crisp and thin, the accompanying chips fat and moreish. What let's it down is the little touches at pretension - vegetables served in ramekins, dusting a of cayenne pepper around the rims of plates etc. Oh yes, the word "jus" should NEVER appear on the menu of a British pub unless the owners have delusions of their establishment becoming a gastropub.Prices are very competitive, portion sizes are comfortable and service is casual yet efficient.

Fantastic place friendly staff, fantastic food, large portions great service. Visited lots of times, highly recommended to all.

I recently took my family for a meal at The Rivington Pub & Grill, Blackrod and I must say that the whole family enjoyed it. The food was very good quality, the staff are pleasant and attentive. The overall experience was brilliant. We can recommend the Saddleback Chops. We all wish John every success. I get to see lots of restaurants and gastro pubs but this one is a real gem. We will be returning!

Food was excellent and waiters very friendly and helpful. Only problem we felt a little rushed constantly being asked if ready for nex course and table was cleared whilst at the toilet

I have just discovered the delights of sherringtons in Atherton, having just moved to the area in the last year or so,. I called in for a coffee to shelter from the rain . Looking a the food on on offer i decided to have some lunch, Panini was delicous and freshly prepared , victoria sponge with cream , a large portion and equally as delicious. Followed by a latte with a hint of mint again lovely. The place is very clean and the service fantastic . My partner and i are now regular visitors and what a delight this little place is i would highly recommend it you wont be disappointed.

Went here for a drink and a little bite to eat the other day, food was nice, had a variety of empanadas mm v tasty and freshly cooked. It has a nice warm atmosphere. Though I think it confused a lot of people passing by as from the outside it feels and seems like a restaurant, but only has a small menu of tapas options (obviously styled in the south amerian/spanish vibe) it feels v comfortable but I think it will be confusing to a lot of parsers by and a lot of British dinners not tuned into the concept of going for a drink and having a nibble at the bar when you feel like it, instead of going for a massive pub meal. I think it has a good future and with Chirango gone it could do well, if they had latin music nights with djs etc and maybe added a little more smaller options to the menu. And got the vibe right between Bar and restaurant maybe a few more sofas would make it less feel less like a restaurant Like pie, and the tapas place on Beech Rd .

Never intend to visit again !!!The building is amazing very warm and welcoming with coal fires and a homely feel. I have frequented this public house on and off for the last few years. Using it as a meeting point with friends and family and since moving away from the area we still like to pop back from time to time. The last few times have been less than a pleasurable experience to say the least! Having gone back this evening with family members I can assure you it will be my very last visit having cost a lot in taxi fares it defiantly wasn’t worth the visit. The pub has a lovely inviting interior and exterior but the managers are something else. Several of our friend’s were regular customers but no longer go in there due to issues with the Managers. We thought we don’t go in that often and despite the fact we can’t see our friends we used to see in their we were under the impression if we invited family members and had travelled afar we would still have a good evening. DEFINITELY not the case, the landlady is so rude, to the point you are made to feel uncomfortable! I am not going to go into detail about how bad that lady’s manners are but wouldn’t order food there for sure. The beer is good quality and very fairly priced with a lovely real fires and amazing old pictures that portray interest for young and old. However the atmosphere is spoiled by one major fault THE LANDLADY with the rudest manners!!!Sadly tonight was the last visit we will make to the Yew Tree and we have been going long before this land lady took over!!!

I went to the hare and hounds pub last night (bonfire night). And after queing up for 20 minutes we ordered 2 hot chocolates and were told we could not be served without ID. I am totally appauled by this as i am a regular customer there. In addition to this, the bar staff had watched us queue up the whole time and did not tell us we could not be served before hand.

Had a terrible meal here, burnt to a crisp it was black, I would not serve it to family let alone paying clients. Conversation heard by bar maid I would rather have not have heard.

I found this pub amazing. The food was lovely and the menu was extensive. I went with a party of 12 and two babies, we were all accommodated, the food all came together and was really nice. I will be taking my work colleagues and family there again over Christmas without hesitation. Highly recommended.

Superb cafe / eatery. Have eaten here for a number of years for breakfast or lunch, standard is excellent and never fails. Service always pleasant. Food is just amazing and hearty portions provided. very reasonable pricesVery small room so sometimes a bit cramped, not really suitable to take pushchairs.

Fantastic chippy, great English and Chinese food, lovely friendly staff.

A really friendly restaurant with a father and daughter team running it.The food is the best I have eaten in Chorlton. It's fresh, tasty and authentic.You have to try Zaytoon if you haven't already. And it's extremely reasonable!
