    Nice, relaxed ambience and efficient, friendly service. The food was good, but wasn’t worth the (very high!) prices so unfortunately not great value for money. Also, when you’re already paying £45 for 2 courses, you generally expect sides to be included…. Surprised and disappointed to see no green vegetables included in the sides.

    Roast beef dinner was delicious, good portions without being over faced. Service impeccable and welcoming. Restaurant is immaculate and lovely ambience and setting. We had the 2 course menu and both starters were also delicious. We ordered the crab cake which l will be looking out for again. Glasses of wine slightly expensive/may be more cost effective to buy a bottle if you are enjoying a few glasses with meal. Thank you for a lovely dining experience.

    Another amazing meal produced by Daniel and all the staff From being greeted at the door to paying the bill the whole experience is amazing. Everyone works so hard to make sure your experience is the best and the food and its presentation is out of this world with every meal being explained as it arrives from the kitchen. My advice would be to sit at the bar and watch the hard working staff prepare everything to perfection. We went with the set menu and when we were intrigued as to what was in the ingredients Chef took time to not only tell us but also show us the produce which is grown by them in Cheshire. Yes it can get expensive but what price do you pay for locally sourced produce served at this level and with so much dedication
