“first time going to this branch and it did not disappoint. Manager was really helpful as other half couldn't remember what he usually orders, drinks really hit the spot as it was so warm out. Food was amazing highly recommended and will definitely be back! Nice atmosphere and great staff.”

Even better its bring your own ALCOHOL and free Corkage which helps keep the bill down making it a affordable evening. Will be back and recommend..........”

“A fantastic pub decorated beautifully. There's a lovely conservatory to have your meal too. I had the carvery. There was about 5 different meat choices and huge Yorkshire puddings. Pigs in blankets are available at an extra charge. There's a great selection of vegetables. Lovely roast potatoes, boiled potatoes, mushy peas, cauliflower cheese, broccoli, mixed vegetables. 3 types of gravy. Vegetarian, meaty gravy and gravy with peppercorns. The usual sauces are available, apple, cranberry, mint. Our server was Marc who was just delightful. Me and my friend will definitely be coming back.”

“Really good experience. Staff were friendly and service was quick. Sat in there studying on my laptop during a fairly busy time for 3hrs and wasn’t bothered or asked to move etc. Would recommend this restaurant as a nandos to go to.”

“A great place to relax and have a good chat. No mobiles, no music. Good old fashion fireplace with dancing flames. But the bonus is, a great Sunday roast. With pub meals during the week, Sun In September is a pub worth visiting.”

“We had booked online but it wasn't busy (6.30pm) and the welcome was very warm. The service was friendly and quick. The food was delicious.”

“Great early dinner menu with lots of choice for meat eaters and vegetarians. Staff are so friendly and attentive. Food was gorgeous with great portion sizes.”

“Came in for my birthday and the service was amazing! Liam was a fantastic host and made us feel very welcome and had a good laugh. We had the vegan afternoon tea and it was beautiful. Once again thank you Liam you made it a fantastic experience!”

“All the staff at Popworld are wonderful especially Alice! She is always so welcoming, kind and helpful! Would come again for sure ”

“Esse, a wonderful sales assistant went over and above to find the right size , helped me with my disabled right foot and leg, even helping lace the boots up. I bought because of the service, although as I bought Doc's I could have bought from a number of places. Super happy with my purchase and the service”

“Absolutely loved my visit here. Was warmly welcomed by a lovely worker called Jake! Made me and my friends feel really comfortable and was able to give some great advice on their drinks offers, what’s going on, and even recommendations for places to go after! A really strong worker who truly went above and beyond. Will be returning and hope to meet Jake again!!”

“The food is wholesome, great sized portions, very tasty, staff are lovely, prices are very reasonable, going for Christmas dinner, Menu for Christmas lunch is really excellent!! Book early xx”

“Having visited twice this week I can highly recommend. If you are looking for a restaurant in Poynton look no further.. Fabulous decor, inviting, incredible service and delicious food! I no longer need to drive for truffle chips and will certainly be my new go to for dining with family, friends and clients.”

“We went for the first time on Saturday night..... Frenjabi is so good that we booked for NYE there and then, the food is incredible and no hesitation in recommending you all go. NYE has an amazing menu and 1st class entertainment planned.”

“Sarah & Becky - amazing duo (on the right side of bonkers). A fantastic shopping experience - you can try on the whole shop and they will give honest advice. Individual items so you’ll be safe knowing that it’s unlikely someone else will be wearing the same outfit as you.”

“Great little secret gem of a place. The friendly atmosphere of the pub and great food served on weekends. The best bit Is how the dogs are more than welcome than the kids. X”

“A different sort of pub! Lots of excellent beers on offer and good service.”

“Friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere. A great range of beer and its own brewery beers too make for a fantastic village pub.”

“Kevin was very welcoming and kind. Joseph delivered a high level service, he is great, courteous, a great professional. The food was great. I recommended”

“The food was really delicious and I loved the modern take on the more traditional dishes. It's different from all other restaurants I have been to (in the best way possible), and I found it quite refreshing and exciting to try dishes that aren't so common and easily found elsewhere. The food and the cocktails were beautifully presented (10/10 for aesthetic) and the staff were really friendly.”

“Lovely restaurant- really well prepared, thoughtfully cooked food. I’ve been twice now in August 2022, the quality is consistent - really nice taste to everything. Just a little pricey (it is Hale I suppose).”

“Hi Yetti, As I sit here eating leftovers from last night, I just wanted to say a huge thank you once again for your service. Over 6 months since I first contacted you and at all times you were so professional and replied promptly. The food was amazing, I really loved the plantain bruschettas, suya and jollof rice especially. The portions!!!! My goodness, I ordered food for 15 and we could probably have fed 50! We were able to make sure all our guests had generous portions and plenty to take home for all of us. Lastly, the food came on time and even when it arrived slightly later than projected, I was politely informed. The personalised birthday card that came with it was also a nice touch. I wouldn’t hesitate to book you ten times over!”

“Very much well above average Chinese takeaway. Really good quality and care in the cooking. Far better that it’s predecessor which was in the same spot. Better than a lot of the restaurants in China town.”

“With so many pubs going under, a very refreshing change to see a pub modernised & given a fantastic makeover, add to that an amazing cask & keg beer choice, as well as a well stocked bar ( A great offer when we visited at lunchtime was a £2.00 a pint cask beer) Great friendly staff ( avoided the photo) Well worth finding & give them some custom!”

“Lovely little pub in the heart of Poynton. Good seating area out the front and a covered, well-ventilated area at the back. Good range of beers (weihenstephan my personal favourite) and wine. Cheerful staff, helpful and accommodating. Toilets are always clean. Glad to see it survived lockdown!!”

“Lovely quite small pub although they do have an upstairs. Nice vibe and friendly staff. Enjoyed it with some friends pre-meal.”

“Cool bar in Bramhall with an acre ski style vibe. Card only but bring some coins for the juke box to listen to your favourite tunes. Cocktails were good and you get 2 for £10 4 to 7pm Mon to Thursday.”
