The Station, Oxenholme

Visited this pub yesterday evening. Service was great, the staff friendly and the food was good too. The nice atmosphere and three descent brews rounded off a very pleasurable visit. Will call again

Eagle and Child Inn, Staveley

I am not impressed with the customer service at this pub. I emailed them 5 days before we intended calling to book a table. The reply stated it would be OK as long as we were there early doors, but he would not book us a table.

Our group (6 adults & 2 10 yr olds went here yesterday. When asked if we could have a table for 8, we got the reply, "can you see one?" There were half a dozen tables withy "reserved" notices on them for 2 hours later, but no other tables available.

Very unhelpful - so we left (making no purchase whatsoever) and phoned up the The Station pub at Oxenholme, who were fantastic. I'm afraid the Eagle has lost our custom forever
