The Station - Salford

When i first visited this place i gave a bad review as i thought ythe people there and the atmosphere were not great. Went again today, met the owner who was a pleasant bloke. Things have improved since my last visit for the better.

The atmosphere is dead, food not bad, prices not bad. Staff dull and boring. Not over keen on this place.

Went there today for the first time and really impressed. The staff couldnt be more helpful and the food was freshly cooked and good value. I've now got a new favourite cafe and would highly recommend it to anyone

Went in by myself and was made to feel welcome. Ordered a jacket potato and a cup of coffee. Really enjoyed it and was reasonably priced.

So last month was the most horrifying experience of my life in the station bar, it was my 2nd visit to the warm and homely bar but this time will be my last. I had sat my children and husband down on the upper deck of the bar to order everyone’s meals and was next to be served by the bar lady. She was blonde and was busy on her feet, I asked for the tuna without mayo and was shocked to be told “you will eat it exactly how it’s given to you” so I questioned it and simply stated that my son was allergic to the sauce and she then asked me to order something g else if I wasn’t happy about it, so I bit my lip and ordered him a small breakfast. I was spoken too rather rudely and then, a tall bald man wearing under armour gym clothes brought our food over to the table. We was enjoying our family’s company only to be starred at by the 2 lady’s working on the bar all the way through our meal. And I feel ashamed to be writing such a comment but my husband then stumbled across something rather chilling! Underneath the radiator near our table was what at first looked like a piece of wood, but was in fact a RAT TRAP with a rat inside! We immediately told the barmaid and she then pushed me out of the way and picked it up fleeing the scene with the rat inside a Morrison’s bag! And when I asked to speak to the manager regarding a refund, I was told to get out of her bar and my children were scared and left me and my husband shocked to be swore at and shouted Infront of our babies! Luckily my husband managed to capture the crime scene on camera phone and that’s why I’m shamefully uploading this picture and comment today. The environmental health are on it after 3 weeks of talking on the phone and justice will served! The barmaid I later found out was Jessica, I hope your happy. Thank you for nothing “DO NOT EAT HERE!” AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!!
