Bars in the uk in Stoke

“Went past this place today and saw it was back open so decided nip in for a pint & some food. Absolutely thrilled we did! From the moment we walked in we were welcomed by friendly staff, a warm atmosphere and felt right at home. We had our new born with us so always a worry when she starts to play up but the staff/other customers made us feel right at ease. The food was incredible, we had the steak & Stilton pie which was spot on. Thank you for such a lovely afternoon and will 100% be back again!!”

“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.”

“Lovely friendly pub, great staff, great selection and quality of beers and some excellent food. Relaxed but higher-end gastro that welcomed us despite having been out walking all day. Will definitely go back!”

“Amazing venue, everywhere looks really funky great music playing. Service was good. Ordered 3 tapas plates each- quite big portions we couldn’t finish it all. All lovely The rustic bread with olive oil turned out to be toasted too much which meant it was a too hard around all edges and not great for dipping as didn’t absorb the oil- I’m sure this was a one off mistake Overall would definitely return”

“Driving from Glasgow to South Wales we (4) needed somewhere with great food and great real ale for a relaxed stop in mid afternoon. Just less than 3 miles from junction 17 M6 we phoned ahead to make sure the opening hours hadn't changed and what ales were available. A charming girl confirmed 4 ale selections and that the kitchen was open all day until 8pm. We arrived at 14.15 and were seated near the bar. The food was second to none. Piping hot and fresh, local and delicious. Exceptional value. We were told the pub had been in the same family for over 30 years and Jake, the owners' son, was obviously clearly passionate about his role in the business and his ale husbandry. One of the most perfect stops we have ever made and would return in a heartbeat.”

“Always love coming here with my family, great food, drinks and atmosphere. Service is exceptional and the food is absolutely delicious. Always good to see my friends here. The beer garden out back is a beautiful sun trap in the summer, very chilled and peaceful.”

“We visited yesterday for a family wedding and we were made to feel very welcome from the start. It is a super wedding venue and the staff were very organised and ensured that it all ran very smoothly. One member of staff who stood out to us was Sophie. She was so accommodating and nothing was too much trouble for her. She served the canapés in a very efficient and friendly manner. The following morning ( today ) she served us with a delicious breakfast and was as helpful as she had been yesterday. She certainly stood out to us but I will add that all the staff worked efficiently and calmly throughout the day. Thank you for a lovely day xx”

“One of the few traditional pubs, always good atmosphere , good choice of drinks , landlady very friendly”

“I'm giving this five because it's such a lovely atmosphere and the karaoke nights are fantastic. Although I haven't been able to visit so much lately you are guaranteed a good time. If anything little small but that can't be helped. It seems smaller area because it's so popular on karaoke. It has two sides to the bar. I'm not aware of food served here though”

Felt like my local. if you are looking for a pint and in the area, i would strongly recommend this place as you will be greeted with a warm welcome .”

Recent structural changes inside have been done to a very high standard and you won't be disappointed with a visit, even though the popular disco nights cannot yet return.”

“Great pub fab atmosphere 5 stars New landladies running the Globe now always a good atmosphere great Saturday night fun, bingo on a Thursday plus other entertainment. Dog / pet friendly with treats and fresh water always available.”

“Visiting from out of town. Friendly staff and a great Guinness pour!”

“The Lodge has triumphed again this weekend with a great music afternoon and footy in the evening (shame about the result). Carl and Sarah never disappoint, great owners and hosts with their fingers on the pulse when it comes to quality and variety of beer, a constantly changing choice whilst retaining the firm favourites that customers favour. Such a lot of transformational work has been carried out here both internally and externally, a great place to meet friends and chat with regulars. Last afternoon/evening ran like clockwork so well done to all your hardworking staff who support you. "Where everybody knows your name And they're always glad you came" from the theme tune to Cheers for those old enough to remember it! So "Cheers! to Carl, Sarah and all the staff.”

“I would like to say how delicious the food was and the staff were very welcoming . By far the best pub in the area . 10/10 fantastic pub”

“Great food, great beer, the best company you'll ever meet, and the finest rum and coke in the area. You can do no better than the Blue Bell when it comes to everything you want from a pub. If you get a chance to attend the beer and cider festivals, that's a must.”
