A Nutter on 17:57 - Oct 8 with 4722 views | Dalenet | I think it is sad - but who'd have thought that it would be going for 28 years? I am told a sale was agreed some time ago but unfortunately it needs a lot of investment with utilities and the kitchen and so that didn't proceed. The family still own the Bird at Birtle which is excellent - for now at least. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I believe you may be closer to the truth than most think, it would appear this is the calm before the storm ahead for the restaurant/owner | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Interesting, given the comments my 91 yr old mother with memory problems just made to me over the phone.... "I think there's been some news about Nutter today - it might have been something to do with under *** ****" | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
A Nutter on 09:23 - Oct 9 with 3872 views | blackdogblue | I am old enough to remember when it was the Manor (Brewers Fayre) and my daughter had birthday parties in there due to the soft play area… I actually got barred from there once having been watching an England game in the Farrier & rocked up leathered & they refused to serve me.. embarrassing for Mrs BDB & not one of my finest moments & did go back next day & apologise…. Never been in Nutters, not my type of food & expensive.. Hopefully a bigger restaurant chain may see the potential or what else could it be.. a care home or flats?? | ![](/images/avatars/22716.gif) |

They've been in negotiations for months to sell to the Albert restaurant group, so presumably it will remain a restaurant...... | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

The rumours around Nutter have been rife for almost as long as the restaurant’s been there. And the latest one isn’t going away. It doesn’t take a wild leap to assume that this news and that ‘rumour’ are linked. | ![](/images/avatars/1182.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Technically, it was a Brewsters and not a Brewers Fayre, like the John Milne used to be, and still is but under a different stripe. | ![](/images/avatars/1062.gif) |

Did wonder if it forced decision for "other" alleged reasons, all a little co-incidental, and only time will tell | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I think my mum ended up in there sometime after the Second World War when it treated TB & other illnesses. She spent 3 of her first 4 years of life as a prisoner of war in Germany & I think they sent sick & emaciated kids to Wolstenholme to build up their strength once they returned to Rochdale | ![](/images/avatars/1651.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
