    “Great local pub with friendly staff and good prices on beer. Just beware of ordering spirits as they can end up being very expensive for a double. Sunday dinner is really cheap and cheerful at less than 7 quid for a HUGE plate of food that even a fat guy like me can never finish. Saturday night atmosphere is great with karaoke.”

    Cheerful Garden

    ★★★★☆ 4.1
    Closed

    “Ah, Cheerful Garden. A name that conjures up memories of my OG Fiat Punto, Friday nights, and the purest form of salt and pepper chicken imaginable. My cousin and I, two seasoned veterans of Friday night feasts, embarked on a pilgrimage back to the hallowed halls of this culinary institution after nearly two decades - both having moved away. The anticipation was palpable. Would the magic still be there? Had the years dimmed the flavor, dulled the spice? We nervously approached the dimly lit sign, our hearts pounding like teenage drummers. The aroma hit us like a tidal wave, a symphony of sesame oil, garlic, and pure, unadulterated deliciousness. Nostalgia washed over us, stronger than a particularly potent Satay sauce. But alas! Tragedy struck. After rattling off our order with the fervor of a seasoned auctioneer, I was met with a chilling realization. The sight of a grown man totting up on a casio calculator can only mean one thing... cash only. My heart sank. Years of climbing the corporate ladder, of meticulous budgeting, of carefully navigating the treacherous waters of modern finance, had all led to this – a cash-only Chinese takeaway. Despair threatened to consume us. Luckily, my cousin, a man of resources (and apparently, a card-carrying member of the American banking system), had plastic. But the ordeal was far from over. Finding a cash machine in Lees, a town that seemed to exist outside the realm of modern convenience, proved to be a Herculean task. We circled the "Co-op" (now an Aldi, a cruel twist of fate), only to find ourselves cash-less and craving. Just as hope began to dwindle, a beacon of light – a cash machine shimmering beside the legendary "Legends" – appeared. And whilst it accepted his Bank of America card, it was clear that the Chinese gods smiled upon us. And then, the feast. Salt and pepper chicken that could convert even the most ardent vegetarian, chow mein that danced on the tongue, black pepper chicken that set our souls on fire. The Singapore vermicelli, oh the vermicelli! And the soup, a fiery elixir that warmed our souls and banished all memory of our cash-related woes. Now, let's be real, reheating takeout is an art form. But even after a journey longer than most cross-country road trips and a brief stint in the air fryer, the Cheerful Garden experience remained unparalleled. It was an 11 out of 10 performance, an oriental masterpiece that could only have been orchestrated by the culinary gods themselves. If I didn't know any better, I'd say they must have droned it in from Beijing. Now, another 20 years may pass before I have a legitimate reason to return to Oldham. But when I do, you can bet your sweet and sour pork that Cheerful Garden will be my last stop.”

    Boat & Horses

    ★★★★☆ 4.1
    Closed

    “Had a lovely stay including dinner and breakfast. Food was great, we had the roast dinner which was fantastic value for money at £13.95 a head. Breakfast had a good selection of hot food at the buffet. My only, very personal, preference would have been to have more egg options as I didn’t fancy the scrambled eggs and there wasn’t any other option but the rest was delicious and plentiful. Lastly, but definitely not least were the friendly, helpful staff who really made us feel welcome and valued. Highly recommend the Boat & Horses hotel too as the rooms are big, well appointed and the beds really, really comfy. Well worth a stop off.”
