King's Ransom

Was ok ..not changed that much inside bit of updating done ..still outside decking to be finished , Good location right on the Canal ..

I came in the other night and absolutely loved the food! The staff were welcoming and friendly, the food was delicious, and all came to our table in a timely manner. In response to @A͟s͟h͟l͟e͟y͟P͟l͟a͟t͟t͟: Aww, was big boy told he couldn't have his baseball cap on indoors? What are you TWELVE? Pubs have a dress code for a reason, and if you can't understand that in your feeble little mind, then your mention of Wetherspoons earlier, (or "Spoons' as you would call it), is where you should reside in the future! Not going back...? I bet they're reaaally missing you.

Lovely place,great food.

The food is average frozen food. Similar to spoons but a lot more expensive. I got told to to take my hat off, I asked why and the response was that if I don’t I will have the bouncer to deal with. Won’t be going back

Great pub and amazing manager/landlord helped us out fairly swiftly to find a seat. Looks amazing after the refurb. Food is pub food so only a two star but was served fairly quickly after ordering and staff were also fantastic. All in all a lovely atmosphere. Lots of different sections for different occasion. You can book a private room for a family dinner or sit downstairs in the main area for football or outside for canal views and sun! Great pub. Limited gluten free option!

Great service from the bartender Lucy, quick, efficient and very welcoming

Thank you to the door men Zack and Pat who returned my card to me that I left behind. Amazing customer service!

We had our buffet wedding reception at The King's Ransom in Sale on Saturday 6th April 2024. Everything went great, the buffet food was excellent and good value and the newly refurbished room was lovely. Many thanks to Tracy and her staff for taking care of us so well! Parking: Parking free for customers

The Kings Ransom - was looking forward to seeing the new décor, having been a customer for many years, but not impressed, this once friendly pub has become a dark and dingey den of misery under new management, a jumped up little man with the fashion sense of Morten Harket in Bernard Manning's body with a personality to match, having consumed a couple of pint's outside I returned my glasses to the bar, like any polite customer would do, and was waiting to be served, when I heard a loud uncouth voice shouting at me from across a crowded pub - "Take your cap off, No cap's in the bar" - I looked at him and did not reply to his unpolite manner and simply removed my cap, payed for my overpriced drinks and returned to sit outside - on leaving I thought I'd have a word with him about etiquette, but as he saw me approach, he made a quick retreat to the kitchen - On my way out I looked for signs indicating a dress code - none to be found - my brother visited the toilets only to find customers were allowed to bring their dogs in with them, I've no problem with pets in pubs, but is it appropriate to allow them in the bogs - seems a little bit of double standards going on in regards to what he thinks his fake artisan boozer is. Maybe he should invest in an MDF hat stand in keeping with the cheap Chinese fittings and fixture representing merry old England. Saturday afternoon and soundtrack blasting out from the new speakers seemed to be the worst of the nineties - Jimmy Nail's "Crocodile Shoe's", Tasmin Archer "Sleeping Satellite", Sinead O'Conner "The crying one", REM "Everybody Hurts", it's enough to make you want to chuck yourself into the canal - I went to drink outside as the weather was fairly nice for a change and to escape the multiple TV's screening football - oh but no, no sooner had we sat down in a quite corner than a large flat tv comes on at the back of our heads - no one was watching and it hadn't been requested, I watched as customers waited for food that seemed to be being served by Wint and Kidd, in a very creepy haphazard way and no sooner had they served it, they where asking if it was ok in unison before customers had chance to take a bite. You can improve the building as much as you want, if the atmosphere, staff and management is terrible, you have a problem. Thankfully there is no shortage of places to go to drink in the area, and be treated politely as a customer, I can wait for another change of management - guessing it won't be long.

Lovely newly renovated pub by the canal. Good service, dog friendly with happy hour!
