“The Crossways Pub in Newcastle-under-Lyme is a charming local establishment that captures the essence of a traditional British pub. With its warm, inviting atmosphere and friendly staff, it quickly makes visitors feel at home. The pub offers a good selection of ales, beers, and spirits, catering to a variety of tastes. The food menu, featuring classic pub fare, is well-prepared and satisfying, making it a great spot for both a casual drink and a hearty meal. The decor is cozy and nostalgic, adding to the overall appeal. Occasionally, live music and events add to the vibrant community feel. However, it can get quite busy during peak times, which may affect service speed. Overall, the Crossways Pub is a delightful spot for both locals and visitors looking to enjoy a traditional pub experience.”

“Had my first experience on the first of December, the Christmas party, everyone on the caravan park are so friendly, it was a brilliant night, the act was hilarious and the buffet was lovely ♥️”

“Fantastic little place, with a great selection of beer and an outstanding Thursday night quiz (one of the best we’ve ever been to!). Everyone was super friendly and looking forward to coming back soon.”

“Excellent estate pub with brilliant landlord & landlady, always go the extra to help the community locally as well as welcoming those who aren't....”

“Nice place for a quiet drink and chat with an old friend I haven't seen for over a year. Footie was on the tv but still found a quiet corner. The beer was good and a friendly crowd in the bar.”

“Popped in here for a random pint of Guinness bit worried it might be cliquey but met with very friendly staff and people enjoying themselves and good banter the the pint of Guinness is top quality I don't know what the food is like but if it's like the Guinness it's going to be tasty and fresh .”

“Walking into Social Vaping is like entering a cloud—but a cool, citrus-scented one where everyone looks just a little too relaxed. It's not your average vape shop where the staff treat you like they're auditioning for a role as a background DJ. No, this place has an atmosphere that's more like, "Come in, have a laugh, and leave with a new flavor of 'tropical mystery' on your lips." Mike, the owner, is an absolute legend. He’s the kind of guy who can recommend the perfect vape juice based on your astrological sign, your favorite 90s sitcom, and how much existential dread you're carrying that day. He's got this magical way of making you feel like you’re his favorite customer, even though there are like 10 people in the shop and one guy's literally asking if they sell vape cartridges made out of gold. He’s also got this laid-back yet highly informed vibe—he’s like a Zen monk of vape knowledge. I once saw him talk someone out of buying a mango-flavored pod with the same conviction a doctor would use to talk you out of eating expired sushi. But hey, Mike’s not just about keeping your lungs safe from ill-advised fruit decisions—he’s got the best gear, a killer selection of liquids, and the patience of a saint when some newbie is like, “So, what’s this coil thing?” The shop itself? It's like a vape haven and a cozy lounge got married and had a neon-lit baby. It's not just a place to pick up supplies; it’s a social experience (I guess the name wasn’t just a clever pun). Whether you're there for a quick grab or you’re one of the regulars who treat the place like their second home, it’s impossible not to get sucked into the friendly banter between customers and staff. There's always a conversation happening—about life, the best flavor combos, or whether you can actually taste “cloud density” (spoiler: you can’t, but it’s fun to try). So, if you're tired of vape shops where the vibe is colder than the menthol pods, hit up Social Vaping. Mike will hook you up with exactly what you need—and maybe some life advice while you’re at it. Just don’t challenge him to a vape cloud competition… unless you’re cool with losing spectacularly.”

“Good to see Wem Town Hall working well in these times. From here the meals on wheels service is being run in this crisis. Well organized use of volunteers. Flexible responsive and caring. Delivering quality food from local caterers including their own in house cafe team. I expect MBE's for these selfless people Mr Johnson, in due course. I am sure our "servant for the whole of her life" gracious Queen will be delighted to bestow such recognition.”

“Our friends held their Wedding here and it was lovely. The staff were excellent and the food was awesome. we were lucky to have one of the hottest days of the year, so spent most time in the Garden which was also beautiful. Great day and what a fantastic wedding cake!”

“Lovely place to eat and the food is fantastic and reasonably priced. I had fish and chips this time because it looked so good when a friend had it last time - I wasn't disappointed. Fish was fresh, batter was crisp and perfect and the portion was massive! Last time I had Scotch egg starter - the best I have ever tasted. Will keep this pub on my list for sure!”

“Very nice and friendly warm welcome. Fantastic food and service, excellent value for money. Definitely visit again.”

“Great live music venue. One of few in the area. It needs your support #grassrootsmusic #keepmusiclive”

“Just been here for a meal with the wife. We always try to eat at a new place every week. We both had the vegetarian wellington. Genuinely one of the best meals I have ever had. Food was full of flavour, hats off to the chiefs. The place is very quiet with very nice decor and I already can’t wait to go back.”

“This delightful hotel set in stunning countryside provide lovely comfortable rooms. The whole atmosphere of the place is peaceful and "countryfied" well suited to its rural setting. The restaurant has a goiod choice of food and both our choices were delicious and good value for money. Great real ale too served in the cosy bar area. First class.”

“Attended Capello’s for a meal out with a large group of work colleagues. The staff were really friendly and helpful and got all our food out quickly and correctly. All the meals were lovely and everyone really enjoyed the meal. There was great options for the gluten free and vegetarian members of the group. The atmosphere is lovely! Will definitely be returning.”

“First time since it re-opened and wow! Food was amazing and the Gluten free fish and chips was the best! Nice atmosphere, really attentive staff and an overall nice experience. We will be coming back.”

“Third time here and they never disappoint. There’s a fixed two course menu for Wed, Thu and Fri which is even better value than normal. Nice selection of cocktails and mocktails for me the designated driver. Cannot fault anything here.”

“Turned up at noon on a Sunday having read some positive Google reviews. It didn't disappoint. Good for, excellent beer and reasonable prices. The only thing that was slightly disappointing was that it only had one Three Tuns beer on offer despite being next door to the brewery. Apparently they fell out in the early 2000's and are now a Heineken affiliated pub so most of the beers are standard affairs.”

“Really lovely food and great service. We had the set menu and couldn't fault it. We had attentive service and everyone was incredibly polite and friendly. We will absolutely be recommending Red House to friends and family as well as returning soon. Thank you to the whole team!”

“Extremely dog-friendly pub with extremely friendly staff and locals. Our pooch was offered a huge water bowl, many biscuity treats and tons of fuss. It makes a difference when you enter a pub and dogs are allowed in every area with no restrictions. The bonus was that the food was top notch! Due to it being December when we visited, you did have to pre-order prior to arrival as to whether you wanted to order from their Christmas menu or their usual menu. A fairly full pub meant that we did have to wait 30 minutes for our starters but 15% was deducted from the final bill because of this and the cosy surroundings meant that we were comfortable waiting.”

“Came on a Monday evening - pleasantly surprised to see it was really busy - advised there was a 40 minute wait on food which wasn’t a problem, but food came out well before that anyway. Staff were warm and friendly. Food was tasty and great value for money. Really nice traditional country pub. Loved it!”

“Great local pub, very nice food & great beer. The cod & chips with curry sauce are very nice. Breaded brie and chips also recommended. Lovely welcoming atmosphere. We go here every other week and enjoy it very much.”
