Excellent pub with an interesting railway theme and great service. We were served at our table so we could watch the trains go by and didn't have to wait at the bar.

My brother has learning difficulties. He’s about to turn 74. He loves food, not that you’d know to look at him, and trains so what better place. A few of us booked up for breakfast. In our party we have veggies, gluten free and carnivores. All were catered for beautifully. The lady serving us was wonderful. She spotted my brother’s delight at all the railway memorabilia and gave him a book on steam trains. He was thrilled with it. We’ve been with friends and with granddaughters. All of love every minute of our visits and we’ll be back again without a doubt. There’s lots to see too.

Had afternoon tea with a friend and her Mum. Everything was tasty and well presented. Finger sandwiches may have been a little chunky for my taste but that didn't detract from what was a thoroughly enjoyable experience. The staff were attentive throughout and made sure we had everything we could possibly need. Hope to be back again before too long.

What a fabulous place! Sit on the station (almost) and enjoy a pint or a coffee plus a very good choice of excellent food! I can heartily reccomended the meat and potatoes pie with mushy peas and a generous helping of tasty gravy! It really is home made (the pie) with plenty of real meat inside with a proper shortcrust pastry! The Station itself is well worth a wander around with loads of memorabilia to peruse. We were lucky enough to be there when the Friends of Irlam Station Volunteers were having a meeting and some of them willingly showed us around and told us about some of the history of the station and surrounding area. Very informative and knowledgeable volunteers! We hope to be back for the summer event on the 10th June with 'Golden Oldies' and Vintage Vehicles. Well done to everyone at the cafe and Station for making our visit one to remember!

This place is a hidden gem that we didnt know about until recently. My little girl is train obsessed and we happened to find this lovely little place. The staff were so nice too and we stopped for cake and hot choc. We will definitely be back. :)
