About This Pub
Ah, The Sale in Sale – it's one of those pubs that just feels like a proper local gem in Greater Manchester. From the reviews I've had a look at, the staff really stand out; they're warm and helpful, whether you're booking the function room for a birthday or just popping in for lunch. The food's hearty and varied, with options that even the pickiest eaters in the family will enjoy, and it's all served up quickly with a smile. It's dead handy for families and dog owners too, giving it that inclusive feel that's hard to beat. Plus, if you're into sports, you'll love the live screenings on the big screens – it's a brilliant spot to gather with mates for the Women's Euros or whatever's on. On the flip side, it does tend to get a bit crowded during peak times, so you'd want to book ahead to avoid any hassle, and the later opening hours mean it's not ideal for early birds. All in all, it's a solid choice that strikes a nice balance between fun and relaxed, and I'd say it's worth a visit if you're in the area – just go with an open mind and enjoy the vibe.

I hired the function room for a business event and the team were amazing.
The video and sound system was great, the team helped me to set up the room and ensured we were well looked after.
We enjoyed breakfast and afterwards no-one seemed in a hurry to leave which is the sign of a great event!
Thanks especially to Chris & Dan.
We booked out the function room for my daughter’s birthday and Chris and his team were so helpful… they thought of everything, music, lights, disco lights, projector, tables, chairs. Drinks on offer all really well priced food was quick, hot and delicious, the staff were amazing and so accommodating. I would recommend. We will definitely be returning. Thank you!
