Countryside crafts in Manchester

“Excellent shop! Lots more f craft materials for many crafters and very very well priced”

“Such a lovely place to see Alpacas up close. Claire was really knowledgeable and the alpacas were really friendly. Lovely setting too. Easy to find with what 3 words. Great to be able to feed the animals and stroke them. Claire clearly cared a lot about the animals and making sure they were well fed, clean and looked after. Good value for money in a group.”

“This restaurant really knows how to deliver quality. The risotto was creamy and rich without being heavy. The service felt professional and sincere.”

“Started frequenting the Horsebox as was getting repeatedly let down by both coffee quality and service at other local spots. The coffee here is the best around Worsley and the cakes are delicious. Chocolate baklava, who knew? Amazing”

“Newly renovated, modern pub with a small-but-good ale selection. Interesting spirit selection including flavoured gins. Pleasant outdoor seating with marvellous views and a dedicated parking area.”

“First time here and certainly won’t be the last, minced chicken with lettuce wraps and salt & pepper prawn were the most savoury light delectable starters with duck, rice and the star of the show, steamed whole sea bass for main. My oh my best sea bass I have ever eaten, moist, fell off the bone, intensely savoury liquor, no extra thickeners. Just wow. And Sunny. Sunny sunny sunny. You were the highlight of the evening. Please visit this place you won’t regret it, we will definately be back, same again please ❤️”

“Don’t listen to the bad reviews! Really lovely food, been here so many times and it is always 10/10. Would recommend the pad Thai, Thai curry or the pad kra pao.”

“The best pub we have been in for a long while. We received a really warm welcome. The landlord was extremely friendly, and a great laugh. We had good fun reminiscing with him as he knew Where we had lived previously. The food was excellent and we will definitely return . Thank so much for a lovely afternoon. Caroline & Wayne”

“This pub is run by 2 honest good people , who don’t tolerate drugs on the premises , and bad behaviour , since owning the pub they have worked hard to make customers feel safe/welcome , and decent honest people all say the same”

“Nipped in for a meal being intrigued by the name of a pub as The White Lion with the picture of a zebra on the pub sign. The pub is under refurbishment. The service was perfect. We had 3 roasts and we were struggling to eat all of the food. One small criticism - the food was not hot enough. I made a special request about my drink and it was not a problem for the barman to accommodate it.”

“I visited the Crown this evening for the Santa photo shoot and for dinner afterwards. The food was gorgeous and the management and staff went above and beyond. My daughter loved (The Real) Santa and we can’t wait to receive our photos. Thank you for a lovely evening. Will be returning very soon.”

“Visited with work colleagues for a few drinks and had a great time. The bar wasn't overly busy and we were able to talk to one another without shouting which was nice. The drinks were good and not very expensive. The toilets upstairs were clean and tidy even though it was towards the end of the night.”

“Excellent food, staff make you feel welcome”

“Christmas lunch today was delicious and presented beautifully. 1st Class. Well done to the chef! Service was excellent. Highly recommend. From the Winesday Ladies.”

“Visited Sunday 7th December for the North Pole experience and all I can say is WOW what a fabulous experience it was. It is expensive but you do get a lot for your money. I will be definitely booking again next year.”

“Visited again last week. I absolutely love this place. Hidden gem. Great place to bring teenagers who prefer quiet, young adults who may be anxious and not enjoy the crowds. Can walk around as many times as like and discover all animals. Gorgeous pigs, donkeys, goats and chickens enjoying themselves. There are ping pong tables for a quick out side game, children's play equipment. A river to walk along. A cafe to sit have a snack and drink. Squirrels running up and down the trees. Some animals look like they are rescue animals and are obviously being taken care of by the farm.”

“100/10 Food! I Had The Nevison Burger (beef) And It Was SUPERB!! As Soon As The Rich Flavour Hit My Mouth It Was Love At First Bite! I've Been Here Many Times The Service Has Always Been Exceptional! And The Food Has Only Gotten Better! Any Review That Puts This Brilliant Pub To Shame Is Utter Nonsense. This Is A Gem. Ty 4 Reading This Aswell”

“Went here Saturday at 12.30, it was a table for 4 and we were seen to our table by a friendly waitress, ordered our meals which took about half an hour, which I thought was good and when they arrived they were all piping hot. Couldn't find fault at all like some of the other reviews, will definitely be back. Lovely little pub. Thank you”

“Neat little pub with a great homely feel to it, staff were accommodating, the female manager was truely above and beyond, Connor was also pours a great pint! 10/10 would recommend”

“Brill place lovely home made food a must try for anyone passing by”

“Beautiful location, friendly courteous staff and incredible food. Came on a Sunday for the first time, great old school pub feel in the bar and a nice layout throughout. View from the rear beer garden is beautiful. Cant compliment the food highly enough. I had the venison, haggis croquette with neeps and tatties and it was divine! My wife had the rag pudding and was equally impressed.”

“Jenni the new landlady is so welcoming and the pub has a lovely atmosphere. I would definitely recommend and I'll definitely be back again . Well done the Jolly Crofter.Plus side cheap beer.”

“I only popped in for a brew whilst I was waiting for my tyres to be done at Halfords. It's was quite, allowed me to get a bit of work done and had a brew. The lady that was there was lovely, really welcoming and checked I was ok frequently, which was sweet.”

“Had wanted to go for ages and today was the day and didn't disappoint. Food was amazing had a roast turkey dinner it was heaven. Partner had the steak with red wine pie ,beautiful he said best ever.

“First visit after being recommended by a friend. Excellent food and friendly service. Very nice place.”

“I attended the Autumn Spa Day with my Mum today, which was a birthday gift. We had an absolutely lovely time, the facilities are wonderful, loved the various sauna/steam rooms etc available. The outdoor thermal pool was fabulous too. We also joined in with an aqua aerobics class which was on at the time and we really enjoyed it. To finish off we had a 50 minute treatment which was incredible, the girls were wonderful who did the treatments and made sure we were always happy & comfortable. The staff on the spa reception were also really helpful and happy to help us. Although the changing rooms were a little tired and in need on a facelift, it didn’t affect our visit whatsoever! We would definitely return!”

“Good pub, friendly staff, worth a visit, prices better than others, no food at present.”
