Review The Morning Star - Shaw

A short walk up the hill from Shaw tramway station...excellent outside area..good views..

Food was amazing amd reasonably priced, friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere. Definately going again. Family of 5, 3 had ths rag pudding, 1 chilli chicken amd rice and pizza all was very tasty and plenty of it.

Really good pub. Eaten here a few times recently and the food has always been great. It's dog friendly which is a big plus for me. Staff have always been friendly and attentive.

It's a lovely and dog friendly pub. After a long walk, much needed for a drink and to grab something to eat. Friendly staff and food tasty and nicely presented.

I frequently go to the morning star for drinks. The service is always lovely and fast. The prices are fairly cheap for the area. A great wholesome pub, also a thank you to the tall blonde waitress with glasses as she always has a chat with me when I come in.

Staff are lovey, the food is amazing!! Great value for money a brilliant place to spend my 2nd date with my new Mr!! 😀 win win!! Xx

The food can be a little slow to come out but it's worth the wait when it does, every meal we've had has been gorgeous! Freshly made to order :)

Great local pub. It gets better each time we go in . Live music at weekends. Karaoke and quiz nights during the week. Sometimes busy at the bar. Great staff .

Staff were extremely helpful when they found out we had been waiting for our order for nearly 2 hours but, when it finally came it did not disappoint 👏 🙌. This pub is exactly whay people need after a long walk or a hard day a work inorder to wind down

First visit despite having moved locally a few months ago. Kept meaning to pop in as it looked nice from outside. We had tea and couple of drinks and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Food was great. Modern, contemporary pub grub. We will definitely be regulars. We couldn't stop for the quiz they were gearing up for but think we will be back for that next week. Cheers.

Great food and great friendly service

Food was beautiful, it would have been 5 stars but 1 star was knocked off for the following... all small things, but put together lost them a star: 1. Pricing, a touch on the expensive side, no big deal, you can see the prices before you order. But for a quick Thursday lunch, more than I'd want to pay. 2. Atmosphere, it's a nice pub, but not many people in, I like people watching and it didn't provide that. Again, I'm there to eat, so no biggy. 3. Wait time. Again, was supposed to be a quick lunch, but it took 35 minutes for the food to be delivered, if they were busy, fine, I get it, but it was pretty empty 4. Beer selection, I like a 4% beer, they had Lee's and Carlserg, which I don't like. Again, not the end of the world. But £4.20 for a pint of Carlsberg didn't make me want to go back in a hurry 5. The only critique on the food was that the coleslaw was the driest coleslaw I've ever seen, I asked for extra mayo to make it a workable 'slaw. All, small things, but add them together and you've got 4 stars! Other notes; people, location, parking were great.

Good friendly service 👌 didn't have food but it looked and smelt good .

I feel so lucky to have seen 1 of the greatest musicians of all time tonight his name is Andy Lee obe

Lovely atmosphere and delicious food.

Had a great lunch here. A beef burger and chicken burger. Beef was very tasty but the chicken was fantastic, huge and well cooked. Worth the upgrade to home cooked chips which were fantastic. Only complaint is why it wasn't busier, gem of a pub for anyone wanting a good lunch

We always go here! The refurbishment has really brought character to the place, the decor is lovely and cosy, we have had numerous meals all being gorgeous (the burgers are particularly yummy), and the staff are always very attentive and welcoming. I can't recommend enough, keep doing what you are doing! :)

We ate here when visiting family in Shaw and couldn't fault it. The black pudding and poached egg starter was delicious, and I would definitely recommend the lamb shank. Staff were very friendly and efficient. The only problem I found was I didn't have room for a desert! Well worth a visit and I would definitely return.

First time I've been in The Morning Star for a meal and I'd definitely eat here again. Excellent service by friendly staff. The food was delicious. I had the lasagne and my partner had the crumb coated lemon and black pepper chicken, both great choices and very filling. For such good food and service I was a little surprised at how empty the place was though. Can't wait to go back!

Great meal good waitress service excellent menu only downside keep an eye on level of drinks keep topped up and restaurant could make more money and keep punters happy Use this place or lose it really good

We visited The Morning Star for lunch and we were welcomed with smiley, friendly staff. The food was delicious and resonably priced. We will definately be returning. Cannot recommend enough xx

Attended for a family meal.service from the team was exceptional.the place after its recent refurb looks and feels amazing. The food was out of this world and would recommend to anyone and everyone. Will deffinatly be going back. Great job guys and thank you.

Lovely place, staff are so welcoming & stunning food. Couldn't recommend more � x

First meal in this restaurant since the new owners took over a couple of weeks ago Really enjoyed my Cajun dusted salmon with sweet potato.... service was excellent, can't fault it! Would recommend and will definitely be back 12/10!!!

Well after ordering food with no onions ! And it came full of onions!!! Sent it back to the kitchen and when it came back my wife found guess what onions in her salad!!!! Also the lettuce was slimy!!!!! And to cap it off I ordered my food with salt and pepper chips it it came with standard chips WTF Go and get some proper staff and a new chef that can number one ; Read a cheque Number two : Learn how to keep your stock fresh and serve it in ordinary manner and not in a disgusting manner please see attached photos. After eating here several times don’t think we will be returning now...

I think its been renovated fairly recently judging by the freshness of inside and out. Food was spot on and 3 courses for £12 which thought was good. Drinks were a little pricey at £7.20 for 2 pints dark fruit but suppose in Shaw rather than oldham prices. But will definately go back again as good atmosphere, good staff and enjoyed sunshine in the beer garden.

The food is superb. I can eat, but this time I couldn't fit in an afters. The staff were attentive and friendly. I would recommend The Morning Star to everyone. You won't be disappointed.

First time been back in today since being done up, pub is lovely now great atmosphere. The food was amazing of a very high standrard will definately be returning!!

Myself and my husband came for our anniversary meal last night which our 3 daughters had paid for as one of our presents. To our delight the staff were excellent as was the food. Very courteous and polite. They took us to our table which had a bouquet of flowers balloon and prosecco and glasses which were placed earlier by our children . The service was great and the pub looks lovely after the refurbishment . We will be visiting again soon with our family. Can not fault anything. We had a lovely night celebrating 31 yrs of marriage. . XXX

My partner and I ate here for the first time earlier today, I have nothing but positive words to express. The food was fantastic, friendly attentive staff, well kept beer. And very reasonably priced for the high standard of food and drink we consumed. I will be highly recommending this venue to others. Thanks to staff and management!

Had a fantastic meal , the staff are very helpful. The refurbishment is spot on.

Very welcoming pub with extremely friendly, polite, helpful staff. The meal was lovely with great service.
