Ah, the Spread Eagle, what a lovely little find in Romiley! I've got to say, chatting about it feels like recommending a mate's favourite spot. From what I've gathered, the place has this warm, welcoming atmosphere that just draws you in, especially after a stroll along the canal – it's newly done up, so it has that fresh, comfortable feel without losing its traditional pub charm. The staff are brilliant, always on hand with a smile and quick service, making sure everyone enjoys their time without any fuss. Food-wise, it's a winner; the carvery and fish and chips come highly praised, and they've got thoughtful options for vegetarians, vegans, and gluten-free choices, which is great for keeping things inclusive. It's also spot on for families or if you're out with the dog mid-week – just check those times to avoid any surprises. On the flip side, it's not all perfect; a few have noted that while the main dishes are spot-on, some like the pies can be a bit underwhelming, so you might want to play it safe with the crowd-pleasers. Prices are moderate, which is fair, but it could add up if you're planning a big get-together. Overall, it's a solid choice for a relaxed pint or a hearty meal, and I'd definitely pop in again – just remember to book ahead for the carvery if you can!
