Church Inn in Oldham

I had hunter's chicken but found it way too dry and my husband had sirloin steak that was supposed to be medium rare but it was more medium to well and also extremely dry

Great country pub with amazing home cooked food and a fantastic selection of beers

Went for a Christmas meal, it was really busy, lovely atmosphere and lovely food x

amazing and rustic , beautiful setting , gorgeous atmosphere. Set away from the main village and lends itself to the most beautiful views of uppermill nestled in the shadow of one of the most magestic churches in the area steaped in history, the food and drink are amazing set aside sone you time to enjoy it to the fullest 😀

Great service and food on Christmas Eve xxxx

Nice place with a nice setting and good food

Lovely traditional pub serving honest grub.

Good ale, good food, what's not to like 😋

Quality food and service! Friendly atmosphere. there is a good selection of food and drinks on the menu. recommended!

Always been one of my favourite Uppermill pubs. Always busy and my visit was no exception. Great atmosphere, good food and beer! Recommended

Great location. Fantastic place to stop for refreshments after a walk. Fire welcoming. Food comes in small or large portions .

My sister in law and I went here for lunch for my birthday. Wow, this place is awesome. Outside and inside bedecked for Christmas. What a beautiful aura for customers. We ordered our food and drinks. We had the steak pie and the steak pudding. Oh my goodness, everything was delicious, the home cut chips and mushy peas were to die for. The staff are very pleasant and we didn't wait long for our meals, about 10 mins. The open fire was a welcome sight as it was quite a cold but bright day. I had to write this review as I have reviewed lots of places to eat in the past, but the Church Inn is one not to miss. I would highly recommend this establishment to anyone as it serves the best food that I have ever tasted. Long may you all reign, you are all 2nd to none. Bravo to owners, chefs and waiting staff. A most pleasurable afternoon spent in a delightful location.

Great food at great prices. The place is a proper old style pub with a great atmosphere.

We had a lovely meal this evening. Lamb shank and a roast beef dinner. The vegetables were a big improvement from the last time we came. Service and staff were excellent tonight.

Food was amazing, big portions and it came within 5 minutes of ordering despite it being busy. Very reasonably priced, would highly recommend.

Myself and 7 friends came for Sunday lunch, we all had a great time. Food was delicious and piping hot, large portions too! I will be back for more home cooked deliciousness. Staff are friendly and attentive.

Stopped for a quick drink, staff very friendly

I'd say here should be the capital of England

We visit the Church Inn regularly with family, on our last visit we had taken two of our grandchildren for lunch. We were disappointed in one of the children’s meals, the fishfingers that he had asked for were of poor quality resulting in them being left, I tried them myself and agreed that they weren’t nice. We ordered ice cream for the children, it was more like frozen water the children left it telling us it wasn’t nice. I tried the ice cream and agreed again it was awful. It’s not cheap eating out, but when some of the food is of poor quality it makes even more expensive. I hope this review is read as constructive rather than negative.

Brilliant, two staff behind bar to take meal orders and serve beverages at the same time. Walked out of Diggle Hotel where one poor staff coping with meal orders and everything else !

Lovely, warm & welcoming pub which serves absolutely delicious homemade food. This is a place we visit as a family when returning to Uppermill, where my mum grew up.

Cannot fault the pub for anything great choice of food and drinks and at reasonable prices

This is a beautiful pub with a great atmosphere. Pet friendly, and the food is superb.

We had not been to the Church for some time but still very special. Friendly, Attentive staff and a system in place that the Church runs very well on both food and real ale if required. The meals are large and the chef/ chefs do a great job as location and nostalgia attract many people. Food very enjoyable and the service was really good. This is my opinion on the day that I went for food at The Church.

I had meat and tatty pie and it was top draw and massive portion ! Couldn't eat it all ! Was red hot inside with the open fires ! My Partner had turkey sandwich with homemade chips and again lovely ! Plus a pint of Guinness 2 large glasses of wine and half a coke for £42 .. outstanding.

A really lovely, home cooked meal with our extended family. Excellent value for money. Highly recommended.

The church inn is my favourite the food is good (pub grub) the beer is very nice and they have a large variety of alcohol. The staff are very friendly and welcoming the scenery is brilliant.

I have been to the church many times and usually leave very satisfied. So it pains me to say it really, but the Sunday dinner was not up to the usual standard this time. Even the presentation seemed a bit rushed and thoughtless. The roasters were very undercooked and looked more like boiled potatoes, and the rest of the veg was very overcooked, so it was pretty flavourless. I'm putting this down to a one-off because I do love the pub and the location, etc, and the food is normally really good. Sorry, church Inn, but I felt it needed mentioning.

Was disappointed with the Sunday roast. Pre sliced turkey. Roasties tasted awful, not crispy, soft and hard like they had been frozen and reheated. Veg overcooked. I think I would stick to the homemade chips. They looked delicious. I would go again but not for the sunday roast. The chocolate orange cake was tasty.

Our recent family visit to the Church Inn was a delightful experience. The food was delicious, the staff attentive, and the overall ambiance charming. We were particularly impressed with the excellent service provided by the lady who served us. The pricing was reasonable, offering good value for the quality received. The combination of tasty cuisine, warm hospitality, and pleasant surroundings has certainly enticed us to return. We're already looking forward to our next visit to the Church Inn.

Great atmosphere, drinks, and food. Can get busy. Reasonable prices for food. We go regularly.

Deadfull food.!!!!!..Steak and Mushroom pie small portion and tastless.the chips were [we were told] hand cut...they must have found the smallest potatoes ever...they were scraps and plus slices of potato on my meal ...awful.never again........ plus the wine is terrible no choice just one brand called Rabbit ...i think.......very overpriced for the quality of food......I did complain on the way out.....and asked about the sliced potatoes i didnt order......it really was awful!!!!!!!!!!

Decent food and ale, lovely inside :')

Fantastic Sunday lunch, good choice of beer and friendly staff. Parking was there only issue but worked it out in the end 😅 maybe due to a christening

Visite the pub with our friend Olly. Perfect place, perfect ambiance, perfect service, And a great meal Olly nr 1! Jos, Jeroen and sir Erik :)

Great friendly service in a cosy atmosphere. Food was amazing with large portions and the best value around. Kids really enjoyed their choices as well.

lovely location for a brew pub,delicious food and old style pub decorations,

Real Country pub, dog friendly, good selection of ales and beers 🍻 👌 The peacocks and peahens roaming freely make a summer drink very entertaining

Always enjoy visiting here. Great value for money and a lovely ambience

Great pub with excellent an atmospheric feel. Food was delicious and seriously hearty portions. Good value and a great welcome.

A haven is fine ales in a wonderful building in a great setting.

One of the best pubs in the uppermill area, great food, excellent service and choice of real ales with a lovely view from the beer garden.

Beautiful old English pub in an outbuilding of the church. Delicious fresh meals with fresh local ingredients.

Dined here late last sunday. Service excellent and food very good.. would recommend.

Looking a bit run down. Food and drinks left on tables nobody clearing up.

We got a lamb shank and a small roast(Turkey). Everything was perfect! Mash was incredible. A resident pair of peacocks are free roaming and can and will jump up on the tables outside! What an experience! Will be coming back.

Lovley pub! Very cosy and traditional, the food was brilliant and a good price. The chips were homemade and tasted amazing. I will definitely be back

Amazing pub grub in a lovely location.

If you want a decent home cooked meal then here is your place. Excellent food, fantastic service and an all round lovely cozy pub set up in the hills of uppermill. Staff very friendly and you can take your dogs in too. We were made to feel really welcome and will definitely be going again.

First time today lovely place went for a walk first around the church then lunch food was great plus came out fast 🤘

Nicely located pub on the hill tops of Uppermill in Saddleworth adjacent to the Parish Church. Great range of nice food and a good range of good beers.

Wonderful Pub/ Restaurant with Great atmosphere & Gorgeous Traditional Food

Absolutely fantastic food as always

Honestly what a great find! Great food, decent pricing and not at all pretentious. Beautiful setting and a lovely area to hangout outside. Can tell this is a great pub by the many welcoming and friendly locals dotted about. Everything a country pub should be!

Been few times food brilliant if you want a good feed this is the place.

excelent lunch , food is always amazing . pleasant , friendly ,helpful welcoming staff . great beer selection

So, the atmosphere was nice and the beer quite good, but the food wasn't good. We ordered some home made chips (as advertised) and they came burnt, they basically said that they weren't burnt it was just the potatoes, when I showed him a deep black chip he couldn't defend it anymore, took it back to the kitchen and then we got served undercooked chips, there was a whole several shades of cooked that they could have gone for, but you could tell that deliverately they werent having it. At that point. Seeing the attitude of the staff we decided not to argue anymore but got really disappointed. I have Cancer, I don't really eat out much, and this really put a sour taste on the evening. A shame really, the place has a beautiful potential.

Good pub food. Good beer. Dog friendly.

A cosy, traditional pub with a friendly atmosphere. They have a varied menu with something for everyone, including a few vegan options. The food is classic, home cooked pub food and did not disappoint. The chips are to die for!

Had a homemade rag pudding, which was delicious, and my mum had hunters chicken, which she said was very good.

Nice varied menu and choices, the meals we had were all good and we had some good variation, I had the homemade lamb kofta, my wife and her friend had the roast dinner deal (£16 for a soup starter,a roast dinner and a pudding after) which was excellent value, the other person in our party had the mixed grill and we all really enjoyed it.

Great home cooked food. Great prices.

9 of us had a gorgeous meal here on Sunday, nothing to much trouble, would recommend to anyone

Definitely worth a visit lovely food nice seating area outside. Lovely staff. Beautiful peacocks 🦚

Never a bad meal when Dad and I visit this happy Inn. It seems all that visit here, go away fulfilled either by food or drink, and I can vouch for both 😁

Brilliant steak and onion sandwiche on ciabatti. Chips are something else. Proper potatoes. £10.95, bargain, washed down with 2 pints of st george bitter.

Always a great place for food and a drink. The food is always excellent and the portion sizes are massive.

Delicious food in fab environment. Highly recommend

Great service and food is really good

Steak Canadian rock hard have to go dentist tomorrow think I’ve lost a tooth also roast potatoes was solid asked for fish with no peas and came with loads of peas very disappointed

A great pub with fantastic food.

Great place for food and a good selection of real ales. Recommended

Had no idea of it's existence until 3 weeks ago. I'm sure we will be visiting on regularly visit. The food (steak and kidney rag puddings for all plus choc orange cake and apple pie for dessert) were all fantastic. Some of the best pub food we've had anywhere.

Nice to come back after a ten year gap with Julian's family now all grown up. Superb food and drink as usual at bargain prices. (gravy on the Sunday roast to die for) generous meat and vegan chicken portions, superbly cooked and delivered on a busy Sunday in just 20 mins. Still my favourite pub in the UK.

A beautiful pub / resturant, very welcoming and cosy atmosphere. Lovely to see the original bar and fireplace. The food was delicious and offered local dishes, using local produce. Definitely recommend it as it was also dog friendlt

Eaten here a couple of times after long walks in surrounding countryside. The food is average at best & sometimes poor, which is a shame as its a lovely old pub. Had fish & chips this time, which wasn't the best, dry fish with few bones & warm but not hot mushy peas. I can't help think the menu size is an issue it's way too big to cook so many dishes well. It's often a point made by top chefs on these kitchen nightmare programmes & can see their point. Less is more.

Great pub, with a fantastic range of beers and wonderful hearty food

Visited the church inn after a while away. Food was excellent. Service excellent. Good beers. Great atmosphere. The dogs were made welcome. Steak highly recommended

had a meal here on my birthday with my sister, great food and good atmosphere highly recommend 👌

Lovely food! All homemade and hot when served. Been twice now and both times were beautiful. Staff were friendly and service was quick. Will be coming again.

Brilliant value food is not fine dining but homely. Peacocks are a brilliant edition.

What a great pub. Had no idea of it's existence until today but I'm sure it will become a place we regularly visit. The food (steak and kidney rag puddings for all plus choc orange cake and apple pie for dessert) were all fantastic. Some of the best pub grub I've had anywhere.

Having been here before, we were looking forward to our Sunday roast. However, we were dismayed as soon as we arrived, to find the bartender seemed very inexperienced, and struggled with four drinks. We all ordered our food at the same time, but three mains arrived, more or less together, leaving the fourth eagerly awaited…..I was served two incorrect meals, and only got the one I ordered as my family finished theirs?? Then we had to ask for my pudding…. Such a shame, after such positive experiences in the past …..

Excellent vibe. There was a lovely fire on the go which was very pleasant on a cold afternoon! The lady behind the bar was absolutely hilarious and very welcoming. Just what we needed mid-hike!

Great place with lovely food. Plenty of choice, good portions. Staff brilliant.

Very very disappointed Medium fish, chips and peas Pudding, chips and peas Both meals had Chips which were rock hard and Crunchy. Complained to the waitress who advised we could have some more chips, but would have to wait 10 minutes (Didn’t offer to change our meals) We declined the chips as the rest of the meal would have gone cold. Only ate the fish and the pudding and peas. Plates with all the chips returned. When we asked for the bill, there was no reduction just full price for the meal. After airing our disappointment, eventually knocks off £3 for a totally spoilt meal Needless to say, will not return And certainly will not recommend Poor

Good food and a decent collection of beers and cider, felt like a very local pub which will put me off from going again unfortunately.

Nice old 'local' country pub friendly staff , great it was dog friendly, food was good quality and filling

Fantastic home cooked food in a traditional pub. Fantastic value for money .

I love this pub. The food is always fantastic and the staff are lovely. It's a particular favourite of my Cousin when she is over from Canada 🇨🇦 😁💛

I love this pub for its large food & drink menu variety, huge portion sizes, very friendly atmosphere & the prices are really reasonable. If you are out of town & want a go to place you will not be disappointed

Once again great food and lovely atmosphere

Went to the Church Inn on Tuesday for a Valentine's lunch. We ordered 2 drinks and proceeded to order our food. I ordered the Liver and onions, and on arrival I received a puree of liver gravy. My partner ordered the Steak and Ale pie. When her meal arrived all she could taste was the liver. It's obvious that the same ladle was used for the normal gravy as for the liver puree. We have tried to contact the establishment to know avail. This is just to give the heads up for other customers.

Vegan rag pudding is amazing, huge portions. Masses of freshly cooked chips and mushy peas. Great old fashioned pub. Own micro brewery and very good selection of local beers.

Great food, great atmosphere. Did mention the great food!

Had an evening meal with the team or the food was amazing. The service was absolutely fantastic great pub

I've eaten here for years. And the rag puddings and mushy peas are just like mum used to make. Yummy

Love this place,made very welcome,great food, excellent friendly bar staff, cosy put to relax in and great value for money.

Big roaring fire, a great selection of ales and hearty food...quite a lot of it, actually.

Proper northern food. If you want a pub where it feels like your Nan/Mum is making proper good food then this is your place. Excellent portions, excellent prices, staff were really friendly too. Brilliant place, I was full after it!!!
