"We stopped in here for an early evening meal walking up from the canalboat. The walk through the woods is the safer route from the canal via a track near to bridge 13 but it had rained for 2 days solid and it was sticky in places. The return walk along the road has a steep hill with no pavement and cars do travel fast on this section of road up to bridge 14. We did both and the woods track would be lovely when dry. As for the pub itself it was full of locals in the bar areas who were a friendly bunch to outsiders. You get some locals only bars and this definitely isn't one of those. We had a dog with us so we were restricted to the bar and outside areas which on a cold May evening meant the bar. The bar has good in period décor and very clean with a good mix of stools, seats and chairs with varying height tables to sit at. We both had burgers, one beef and one chicken. My beefburger was one of the best I have tasted in years. No soggy bun and really tasty meat. They offer sides and after enquiring if the onion rings were home made I had some of those. They were really good onion rings and at a good price too. My dining partner said her chicken burger was really tasty and no soggy bun bottom either. The food is ordered at the bar with table service. Deserts were sampled also and overall the pricing was moderate. During our 2 week canal holiday cruising the 4 counties ring we visited a good many pubs, the Badger Inn is the only one that I feel compelled to write a review on."

I recently had my first meal at The Badger and I was very impressed. The service was fantastic, the menu had a great selection, and the food was delicious. The atmosphere was also great. I really enjoyed my experience and will definitely be returning soon.

I decided to stop by this restaurant on a whim as we were passing by and it was near closing time for food. The bar staff were very friendly and the service was excellent. The food was delicious and the beer was great as well. I would definitely recommend this place. View menu

We visited this restaurant for lunch on Saturday and were greeted warmly. My wife enjoyed the pie and I had the fish and chips, both of which were delicious and served hot. I highly recommend stopping by if you're in the area, and perhaps even considering staying in one of the available rooms.

We visited The Badger Inn whilst staying at Oakwood Campsite. The walk from the site took about 1 hour but it was well worth it. The pub has a large beer garden to the rear with a covered seating area in case of inclement weather . They have a good selection of ales and lagers to choose from, but the best thing has to be the food. I had the fish and chips and to be honest was one of the best I have eaten, the rest of our party had differing meals but all agreed they were excellent. The pub has a very friendly atmosphere,from the staff to the locals who made us very welcome. Overall the Badger Inn is a great all round village pub and if we were in the area again would definitely visit again....

"Having successfully deposited our eldest in her new Uni digs and having enjoyed an evenings kip in an adjoining Manchester hotel we were in two minds where to breakfast. MrsC’s growing angst over the likely state of our home after allowing our youngest free rein for a garden party proved persuasive so we decided on an early exit an victuals en route. A scan of Happy Cow and Google combined allied to our southbound travel threw up Wild and Wild as a convenient stop off before we rejoined the M6. Pleased to see that it opened at 10;00am on a Sunday whilst registering our likely arrival at 10:15 we added the required SatNav waypoint and trained our behemoth on its new path. There was convenient free parking on the Sunday and we ambled on the pedestrianised section to Wild and Wild; sitting slightly incongruously next to a Costa. The place is light and well laid out and an enticing array of cakes and pastries greets you as you enter. The usual instructive board informed us “to please wait to be seated” which we did. The young lady who appeared to be both front of house, barista and server said she would be with us after serving her present customer; which was fine but, in truth, simply having the menus on the tables and allowing you to sit yourself at empty unreserved tables would seemed to have been the least intrusive and effective means of managing the flow? Anyway we were handed drinks/food menus and then informed that we could, in effect, do exactly that and seat ourselves. The breakfast/brunch menu was concise but convincing and for speed and efficiency MrsC and I settled on two “full English”, vegan of course, and two oat milk lattes. Queued again and gave the order and paid there and then. Though we haven’t been out too much recently the coffee prices seemed about right but the breakfast seemed a tad high. Understanding how inflation is hitting that might just be an impression but if we had stayed in Manchester and returned to the Lounge a similar menu would have been 30% less. Then it started going awry. The wait for the coffee seemed long; the wait for the food almost interminable (around 40-45 mins in truth) Halfway through that wait another server had magicked into operation and it switched from queuing to order to table service. She was professional enough to highlight to new incoming customers that drinks would be about 10 mins/food 30. Something not considered worthy of note to us earlier arrivals. The breakfast was ok. The vegan sausages appeared homemade with rice wrapper “skins” but they were woefully dry and overcooked. The whole vine of oven roasted cherry tomatoes were good as was the star of the show the Smokey “baked beans”. The toast was good quality bread but cut too thin to successfully soak up both beans and the sweet tomatoes. The other components of mixed greens and mushrooms and tofu scramble were under seasoned and a little bland. The potato rosti was a little dense but ok. Sadly the food was underwhelming and more so due to the long wait; ill fitting the vibe and the surroundings especially as the place wasn’t heaving at any time. Always feel awkward knocking eateries in these uncertain times but, in this case, expectations raised by the feel of the place allied to the prices charged, we’re not met by the quality of the food. Perhaps it’s better suited to an afternoon cake and a drink session? Disappointed."
