All because of one guy coming in who knows the pub and the people. Well done to Dan and his staff. A massive turn around. I went to the Plough for a party last week. And I keep going back. 4 nights this week. Possibly becoming the best pub in Prestbury. Well Done!!

I went to The Plough yesterday for a friend of mines birthday party. I had been told it was under new management, and my previous visit was spoilt by a dog running around the garden and totally abusing the garden. I used to come a few years ago and the garden was beautiful. Yesterday it was clear that the new manager has made terrific changes. The lawn at the back of the pub has been re-turfed and it looks fantastic. I did notice a young lad explaining to another customer about the garden and I assume he is the new manager.
The beer was fantastic, I personally was drinking Bombardier and it was a terrific pint. The party I was involved with said that the staff made a heroic effort and I think Dan (new manager) was cooking the BBQ for everyone and it was fantastic.
If you have been put off this pub recently, you have to re-visit as they have made a massive difference in a short space of time!
All the best for you all at The Plough, and I will definitely be back again!!

Irrespective of the 2 previous comments before, I have been to the pub on numerous occasions and never seen/heard a single bad remark about the pub. Yes, the pub has recently put it's prices up, but surely mr... "RonJussell" I can only assume you use the pub at certain times of the day and have seen a one off unfortunate event. �3.20 is truly acceptable for a pint of ale, regardless of ABV, I have worked in breweries, and one can only assume that you are unaware of the prices that pubs are being charged these days. I worked for a well known brewery in Cornwall, and our lowest ABV Real ale was one of the most expensive to buy!! ABV is irrelevant in MOST cases. If you want to buy a pint of cheap Real Ale, go to Wetherspoons. People should support their local and if they are busy, don't whine and moan, encourage the hard work people are putting in.
"JimSure" you may of had a bad experience but I can only hope that this may have been a one off. A fantastic pub that really has made a massive turnaround. Your take on beer could be totally different to others, and you are the ONLY person to mention "average beer" and this pub is far from comparing beer to cars! That is ridiculous. Read the newspaper and you will see that pubs are failing due to outrageous costings.
I however do not know how much the guys at the Plough are being charged, I don't even know which Brewery it is... But I STILL see it as fair trade and fair pricing. ABV is, again, irrelevant... maybe if they see this, they will put the higher ABV's to a more expensive price... then won't you both feel a bit silly! The mind BOGGLES!
