The Tame Valley - Tameside

I normally do not leave reviews for pub food in the area, but I believe it is customary to check in once a meal is served to ensure everything is okay. Unfortunately, this place did not seem to receive that memo. We went for Sunday lunch with low expectations, hoping for at least an edible roast dinner. However, the carrots and mashed potatoes were served ice cold. When we asked for more to be brought out, we were told they did not have enough but could warm up ours (without an apology). Since the food was already on our plates with gravy, we declined the offer. Eventually, more carrots were brought out when we had almost finished our meal, but to our surprise, only the carrots were hot. Despite this, no one came to check if our food was okay. We paid our bill and left, only for my wife to provide some feedback later. Instead of acknowledging the issue, we were called liars and accused of trying to get a free meal, even though we had already paid in full. The lack of manners, accusations of lying, cold food, and overall bad attitude make it a risky choice to eat here. I recommend locals steer clear of this establishment, and anyone else for that matter.

My first visit to this restaurant was fantastic, the food was delicious. It's a shame that the barmaid lacked any friendliness, otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.

Came on Sunday for the 1st time, heard a few good reviews so thought we'd give it a try. Ample choice on the menu including 4 different meats for roast dinner. The staggered price for 1/2 or 3 course was quite unbelievable. The quality was good, nice hot food and portions were not skimpy at all. Staff were pleasant and good service, will definitely go back soon.

Was very disappointed with the Sunday Lunch, all veg was cold, the beef was tough, the festive burger served on cheap bap would have been better if it was toasted and chips were cold. We had to sit with coats on because the place was freezing and the staff was miserable from getting served at the bar to table. Complained but no one seem to be interested. My sister highly recommend this place for the food during the week, but she was really disappointed with the Sunday lunch.

Have been several times in the last month, food was perfect again today as usual but going back tomorrow as I have to try the trio of pies (well it would be rude not to!
