The Railway Inn, Altrincham

Sadly now a hole in the ground, soon to be a carpark or other un-needed office building.

Sadly missed from its heyday in the early and mid 90's

The Roebuck, Altrincham

I went in last monday evening, and the service was simply horrific, 8 minutes to get served in a bar with 3 customers at 9 pm, terrible, simply terrible.

The barmaid spent more time away from the bar than behind it.

The beer when it arrived wasn't too bad, but the service put me off ever returning.

No jukebox as mentioned in the previous post, now its all music played from a cd player, but a lot of the cd's are scratched and frequently skip or stick, (this happened on 2 different cd's they had playing in the space of an hour)

The Orange Tree, Altrincham

Popped in last weekend to watch the final of the tennis, although the pub was packed, still got served quickly and lots of TV's to watch sports on (5 I think)

Paved area out in front for those elusive summer days and beer garden / BBQ area round the back.

Plenty of staff working what is quite a small bar area, 3 cask beers on tap, and plenty of choice of lagers.

All in all a pleasant pub, with speedy service from staff that can remember your drink and decent beer.

Heartily recommended !
