Welcome

If you love the British pub, you will like this blog. Here I will review the pubs I drop into in my wanderings around my home region - urban, rural, posh, homely, fun pubs, restaurant pubs, and local backstreet pubs. I hope to encourage people to appreciate them.
I will score each pub out of five points each (30 points maximum) on its ambience, decor, service, whether it serves real ales, state of the toilets (but I can't vouch for the state of the gents because I don't use them!) and what extras it has - games, beer garden, newspapers, serves food, karaoke, quizzes, live music.
If after reading one of my reviews you decide to check out a pub, I hope you enjoy the experience. But bear in mind that I have only visited some of them once, and pubs and pub managers change. If the review needs updating, please leave a comment.
Ups and downs? Well, people drink when they're down. And they drink to celebrate, when they're feeling 'up'. Besides that, this is hill country. It's full of ups and downs.

The Summit, near Littleborough


The Summit, 140 Summit (A6033 Todmorden Road) Littleborough OL15 9QX, 


On a main road and easy to find, and get to, but also out in the countryside. It has hills behind it, and the Rochdale Canal, and the Pennine Bridleway passes to the left of it, where it crosses the main road. It is very well maintained and has exceptionally good service.


Ambience - 3
decor - 4
Has one big room and one bar, with a smaller slightly posher dining room at the back, but the whole is well maintained with comfortable seating.

ales - 2
Had Wainwrights and Thwaites on my visit in 2012.
Had Blonde Farmer and Summit Ale on my visit in 2018.

features - 3
child friendly, and has a children's play area in the beer garden at the back
Dogs are allowed in
Serves food from 1pm to 8pm. The chef cooks everything from fresh so expect a bit of a wait, but it's worth the wait.

Service - 5
very friendly and attentive

toilets - 5


Score 22 out of 30
