Is that the one by the canal? Lovely in summer, the Royal Oak in Gnosall is also nice, recently had a refit so very swanky!

Exactly that though occurred to me whilst I was attacking the pie. The better weather will be along soon...That-Crazy-Rat-Lady said:I know its not exactly the best weather right now but the cycle path that goes to gnosall is brilliant in summer and pops out right near the pubs

Ooh, could be worth making the effort - http://www.mikron.org.uk/ - they're doing Losing The Plot.

That sounds like my perfect evening! Am torn, though, between going to the Navigation on 7 Sept (food available, within easy cycling distance, a Friday night) or The Anchor on 6 Sept (something darkly referred to as 'refreshments', splendid eccentricity all round, house martins in the toilets, the opportunity to park-up at Loynton Moss and walk along the canal, spaniels encouraged) I suppose I have until September to dither.

It is indeed. The term 'food' isn't used on the Mikon website - merely refreshments. The last time I went to the Anchor they offered crisps and sandwiches.

don't mention the blinds
enjoyed the entertainment on friday night as did the little yappy dog on the front row, the four-man-show excelled themselves with a very well scripted, humourus presentation. the sassy waitress from the pub was certainly working hard carrying food and drink to the assembled audience on the downside someone in a large van smashed into a parked car and drove off without leaving details however some local yokels passed on some gen to the irate car owner.........

I opted for The Anchor. I scrutinised the audience carefully, looking for anyone who might be a forumite. Anyone there?

I've just been to the Navigation again - had the steak and ale pie (again), but had prepared properly this time and my training paid off, though I may have to lie down for a bit now. Top notch nosh at a fair price.
Excellent grub, but it's well worth booking on a Sunday. They squeezed us in, as my entourage had ignored my recommendation to book..
The waiting staff is most impressive - flashes about like somebody training for a supermarket trolley dash, but seems to be in complete control of the situation, not a hint of flusteredness.
