The Albion Inn in Rochdale

Ah, The Albion Inn, what a lovely find in Rochdale! From the reviews I've had a look at, it's clear this place really shines with its food – imagine tucking into the best tomato soup you've ever had, paired with a gorgeous cheese and onion pie and those homemade chips that folks can't stop raving about. The Sunday roasts sound like absolute winners too, with one person saying it was the best they'd had in years. And the service? It's spot on; the team are polite, professional, and make you feel right at home, even checking in to ensure you're happy. Prices are spot on for a budget-friendly night out, and the atmosphere is just buzzing and inclusive, whether you're there for a quick pint or a proper meal. On the flip side, their website's a bit of a letdown with some errors, so you might not get all the info you need at your fingertips, and the opening times seem a tad inconsistent from what's listed, which could mean planning ahead is a must. All in all, it's a solid choice if you're after a genuine, feel-good pub experience – I'd say give it a go and see for yourself!
