About The Lancashire Fold
At Alkrington Cottage in Manchester, The Lancashire Fold is a pub serving a menu of around 90 dishes. Warm breads open the food, alongside John Willies beer battered fish and sticky pork belly bites, with Thai honey halloumi fries and chilli cheese nachos among the sharing options, and farmhouse sausage and mash on the mains side. The pub takes walk-ins rather than reservations. Service runs at its own pace, and tables are not always checked on during quieter periods or when the bar gets busy.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often praise the food, with huge portions and one regular ordering the same burger every visit. Close behind are the Guinness and free live music nights. Staff are called friendly, though a couple note slow service, with one saying more bar staff are needed and another not checked on much when seated in a corner. One finds it quite expensive for a Lees house.

“It's a nice place tbf. Being a Lees house it can be quite expensive however. There's a decent sized bar area plus a really decent function room. I've found a few times that more bar staff are needed as service can be a little slow. There's plenty of parking space and tables outside if you prefer.”

“god i love the lanky fold. best pub i’ve been to for a million reasons. food is absolute class and the prices are good too. i get the same burger every time and it never gets old, the cooks know what they’re doing. very rarely have problems with service, maybe on a slow day if we’re tucked away in the corner we don’t get checked up on much, but no other issues. my favourite part is their live music nights, completely free and so entertaining. their drinks are also really fairly priced. never had a bad day or night at the lancashire fold. love it !!”
