Gallagher’s Altrincham

Ah, Gallagher’s Altrincham – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a reliable old friend, you know? From what I've gathered from the reviews, most folks are raving about the place, with a solid 4.4 rating from heaps of people. The drinks are always a highlight, offering a nice selection that pairs perfectly with good chats and laughs. And the food? Blimey, it's a step up from the usual pub fare – think mouthwatering Polish dishes like pork stew or classic pies with vegan choices thrown in, which is brilliant for keeping everyone happy. The staff come across as genuinely welcoming, making it easy to settle in and enjoy the atmosphere, especially if you're there for the sports on the screens. It's open every day from around midday, which is handy for a spontaneous meet-up. But, to be fair, it's not all roses; there was that one chap who travelled for an open mic only to find it shut, which sounds like a right pain, probably due to some new management kinks. Still, with most reviews being top-notch, I'd say it's worth a visit – just maybe give them a ring or check online first if you've got something specific in mind. Overall, it's a gem in Altrincham that does pub life well, with just a few bumps to smooth out.
