The Pavilion Cafe in Oldham

We recently lost my father in law & booked a one night stsy at what used to be our local pub/ hotel we travelled up from cornwall to visit family& need to book one night when fsmily were unable to put us up

The staff here are brilliant, especially Leah she is a lovely person and a credit to this establishment. Food is not bad.

Small family birthday celebration - we made it despite the weather. Ate the 2-4-1 menu (Mon/Tue 5 to 8pm) - delicious all round & excellent value for money. Good service. Recommended. Would have been 5* but the dining room was cold (fire laid but not lit) & it would have been helpful if some of the car park had been cleared of snow/ice.

Went in on Friday near enough 9pm for a few drinks, only free table on arrival was upstairs which was exclusively for the restaurant-no problem. Hung on downstairs till a table freed up and sat down. A bald manager came to clear the empty glasses from the table and we asked him for a bottle of Prosecco and he checked his phone and said yes. 10 minutes later no drinks and the bar wasn’t busy so went to ask with one of the staff and they said the order wasn’t put in and she would do it. Bald manager brings the bottle over and then said ‘oh it’s bar service only’ so I asked him if he wanted me to open the bottle if it’s bar service only. At no point during our first interaction with the manager did he say it was bar service which definitely would have been helpful.

We visited The Old Original once again for our Christmas drinks together. As usual it was very cosy and easy, the staff were great and we just enjoyed our visit prior to a busy Christmas.
