UPCOMING MENUS

What did our customer’s choose?

“We both had the steak and ale pie and unanimously agreed they were excellent – light pastry, full of meat and the stilton added a savory edge without overpowering the steak. So in conclusion, we will be back.”

Trip Advisor – Martin

“Great gluten-free fish and chips, lovely pub, friendly staff and large outside area. Good for the start/end of the trail to Rudyard Lake”

Trip Advisor – Stanth

 “We like to try different places for a Sunday meal so when we found out that the knot inn had reopened we said we would try it. What a great decision that was. The rare beef dinner was fantastic great selection of veg. Can’t wait to try the lamb next week”

Trip Advisor – Freedom

“We had the fish sharing platter and it was absolutely delicious. I cannot fault a thing about it. If and when I return I will definitely have it again although there was so many nice things on the menu I may have to try something different”
