The Trigger Pond, Great Sankey

Could be an excellent pub if the brewery would take it seriously and invest in a revamp. Generally a family dining pub but needs a damn good clean and a revamp to justify the prices. It's a shame because it's popular in the current state, but with some money spent it could be a gold mine.

The King's Ransom, Sale

I love the fact that you don't mention the METROLINK station 10 yards from the door, but tell people that Humphrey Park is a mere 2 miles away!

Transportation dysfunctionalities aside, The Kings Ransom is in truth not a bad pub. Given that Sale has attracted more than its fair share of cnuts in the last few years, due to its location and the explosion of "aprattments" (sic), the Ransom still manages to host a good mix of genuine people. Good food (particularly on a Sunday) and a pleasant atmosphere make it one of the better watering holes in Sale.

The Pot Kiln, Frilsham

Personally, I think Mike Robinson's plans for The Pot Kiln are the next logical step in the pub's evolution. Whilst I am not a Frilsham local (and therefore not best placed to comment on any damage to the Pot Kiln's ambiance), I believe that Mike has struck a good balance between pub and restaurant. The food is of outstanding quality, without being too pretentious in either atmosphere or presentation. I applaude Mike in his efforts to give a new lease of life to a fantastic historical building.
