A Table at Eaton's in Cheshire West and Chester

A very warm welcome was had & very friendly staff. The food was excellent. ( so good I ate too much ). As a visitor very impressed.

A genuinely friendly welcome from John, who runs the front of house, and beautiful cooking from Lou made for an excellent dinner. The scallop thermidor starters were superb and Lou very kindly gave me the recipe! Rack of lamb alongside my partners fillets of sea bass were both beautifully cooked and a special mention for the rhubarb crumble for pudding. Finish that off with an exceptional cheeseboard and a couple of glasses of port whilst we had a lovely conversation with both of them and you can’t go far wrong. and you can’t go far wrong

small,intimate high street restaurant.Absolutely excellent food and service.good varied menu,everything that the four of our party selected was really good. Definitely recommend,this restaurant is a “must return “!!

Lunch with friends today !! What can we say !! The food was amazing and we were made to feel so welcome . John and Louise are brilliant hosts and nothing was too much trouble for them. They are a real " down to earth " couple who know exactly how to make a meal into a thoroughly enjoyable experience !! Thank you so much, we will certainly be coming back !! 😊👍 Phil, Kim, Rob and Jan 🥰

We have been visiting this small restaurant for a few years. John and lou are a fabulous couple . John front of house. Lou a brilliant cook. Food allways delicious piping hot and such a good varied menu. A must visit.

What a gem of a place! Four of us were subjected to some delicious food, gorgeous wine and fantastic service. Have lived in the area for a few years and never knew this little gem existed. Family run, producing locally sourced food to a very high standard. A place where we will always visit!

There where 8 of us the waiter was amazing , and each plate of food we had was delicious, we will definitely be back, I had the bury blackpudding covered in melted cheese with onion chutney for a starter , then the chicken stuffed with leeks and wrapped in Parma ham with a smooth mushroom sauce, I couldn’t eat a dessert as I was stuffed

Had a great meal here this week, we were a family of 8 and nothing was to much trouble We had a large range of starters and main meals and everything was ready, at the same time and piping hot. The chicken stuffed with leeks in a mushroom sauce was fantastic So was the half duck with orange sauce. Great service from the owners John and Lou, we’re attentive, professional and good company. Will be back

We had a lovely meal here as a group of 8. Nothing was too much trouble, the food was lovely. Steaks were cooked perfectly! Service was excellent and we had a great time at Table at Eatons, thank you!

We booked for the two of us for dinner a few weeks ago. I hadn’t been to A Table at Eatons for many years and so We were looking forward to it! We were not disappointed at all. Very warm welcome and chit chat from John and Lou who treated us like old friends. The food was really good and well prepared and presented. My wife had the Field Mushroom and Goats Cheese whilst I had Scallops. Highly recommended. For mains we chose Chicken for my wife and I had the Rack of Lamb. Pink and gorgeous! We both had puds - Treacle and Stem Ginger tart and Crème Caramel. We also had a bottle of Italian red. Thanks for a great evening - we will be back soon…

Highly recommend this eatery, you have to book as it is ran by an excellent husband and wife team. They have been serving top notch food in Malpas for 20 years. You have to book this place

"a table at Eaton's" has an unprepossessing frontage but once inside you discover a bijou restaurant that produces amazing food. It is owned and run by John & Louise who singlehandedly provide an exceptional dining experience without any fanfare. The sea bass in its own unique sauce is exceptional.

Had a celebratory lunch here with a large party of family and friends. The food was excellent and the owners were lovely. Nothing was too much trouble and they were particularly helpful in accommodating me - who suffers with restricted mobility. We'll certainly aim to pay a return visit if we're again in the area.

We are holidaying in the area. We haven’t had service like this for a long time- fabulous . Nothing was too much trouble and the food was excellent. Would highly recommend this restaurant. The couple that run it are fantastic at their job, felt very welcome and at ease. Thank you!

We are so pleased that we came across this truly wonderful restaurant. Fantastic service and amazing food made for a great evening. The menu has a variety of choices and we had the half crispy duck, rack of lamb and sea bass as mains with an abundance of fresh vegetables. We will definitely be trying to go back before we head home.

Just had a New Years Eve Take-away. Salmon and Prawn Seafood Parcel and Pan Fried Scallops Thermidor starter, Rack of Lamb and Crispy Duck main course and Treacle and Stemmed Ginger Tart and Lemon Posset for pudding. All top notch. Well done John & Lou.

Just had a takeaway from here, only one word, FANTASTIC, if you’re stuck for a meal and don’t want the usual ,come here ! Had the pork off the a la carte, plenty of veg and lovely pork and black pudding.

We booked here for a last minute romantic evening out-we we’re not disappointed! Firstly let me say that the best is was very well set up for the new restrictions due to Covid, we had no concerns. It was a quiet Wednesday evening and so...

Fortunately we booked a table as due to COVID there are fewer tables available and it is very popular with the locals, always a good sign! I had the salmon fishcake with chilli sauce starter and my husband had soup, both very tasty. For the...

First time visit tonight !! Great food, great service, lovely ambiance and even better than we expected. We’ll definitely be back 😀

This was our first restaurant meal since lockdown started in March. The safety measures were appropriate for a small restaurant. The menu posed a problem - too many good dishes from which to choose. We’ll have to go back in the near future to sample...

We ordered a family meal for four for collection. The food was excellent. Every dish was great so difficult to single out any dish. Strongly recommended. Takeout worked really well (during coronavirus). Plates return system is great.

On our way to Wales and had a look for restaurants on the way this place came up and it was absolutely lovely - really cosy restaurant with lovely staff and the steak with stilton sauce was lush 🤤 pudding wasnt half bad either -...

Lunch for four was reserved at an otherwise full restaurant. We were immediately struck by the friendly atmosphere, as their lunches are evidently popular with the locals. Service was impeccable, and the menu was sufficiently varied to cater for all our preferences. And to finish...

I rarely write reviews but feel compelled to share how fabulous the food was here. I’d never ventured to Malpas but we’re brought here by friends and had an excellent experience. We had an amazing meal which was reasonably priced and beautifully presented- the goats...

The patron of this nice little bistro fitted 4 of us in at the last minute and made us very welcome. The atmosphere was warm and friendly, the patron and his wife were most helpful and the food was very good, Highly recommended,

Came with friends on Saturday evening. Very friendly Husband and Wife team, she does the cooking. Not too much on the menu but everything we ordered was delicious.

I took my mum for a light bite & a cup of tea... Nice atmosphere.. staff very pleasant and the food was tasty...

we went here to celebrate a friends birthday very early one Saturday evening. Although I had been to Malpas many times, I had never been here. I wasn't disappointed. When we arrived we were greeted by two very friendly faces, and made very welcome. The...

E had an excellent tasty meal with first class service and a friendly atmosphere. We would highly recommend a visit if you are in the area.

Visited this little gem whilst doing the Sandstone Trail. Had a delicious meal that we couldn’t fault. Only wish I lived closer so could go more often. The owners are lovely people who even gave us a lift back to the Farmhouse we were staying at. ( this was pre arranged ) would highly recommend

This place looks so dark and dingy I cannot bring myself to even try it. If a restaurant looks this bad from the front , whatever is the kitchen like. Seriously you need to clean up the appearance of the place as it is not inviting to new customers.

This is a biased review, but an honest one. I'm a Malpas guy, born & bred here. We are very lucky to have an amazing restaurant in A Table at Eaton's. John & Lou are the best of hosts. They always make you comfortable & the food is always excellent. As always John & Lou---THANK YOU. Xx

Never disappointed with the food and service, the half a duck as a main is truly delicious and there is always a large choice dishes on the menu to select from

Unpretentious and friendly, run by a husband and wife team. This doesn't look all that special from the outside, but the food is really of a very high quality, and whilst not dirt cheap it is pretty good value for money. We had starters, mains and desserts, and all 6 dishes were excellent (scallops, kidneys in mustard and brandy, steak and ale pie, pea and asparagus risotto, treacle and stem ginger tart and raspberry crème brulee) . The food is mostly "traditional English fayre", and is very obviously home made by somebody who is a talented cook. Service was good (attentive but not overbearing), although as it was busy there was a slight wait between courses. Wine list short but covered all the bases. Overall highly recommended.

I finally visited this restaurant after living in the area for some time, but always kept missing it. The food was outstanding, and reasonably priced. The wine list could do with a few more special bottles on it for such a nice restaurant. I ordered the soup and a main meal, but started to get stomach cramps. This has nothing to do with the restaurant or food I need to mention! I couldn't finish my main course, which I was gutted about as it was delicious, but I kept getting questioned by the staff 'perhaps greedy guts shouldn't have had the soup' and my departing advice from the gentleman serving 'perhaps you should not have a starter next time'. I apologise if I offended you by not eating all of the food you cooked me, but perhaps you should keep advice like that to yourself? Its a shame as I would have liked to visit again, but that sort of put a damper on my experience.

Thoroughly enjoyed a delicious meal that was piping hot and tasty. Service was very good and the atmosphere very friendly. Would happily recommend and look forward to return visits.

Have just had a family lunch here today and was not disappointed. Good selection of starters mains and desserts including vegetarian dishes. The restaurant has a homely feel and the owners were very attentive to detail. The setting is lovely being right in the middle of the village and 3 courses for under £25 is excellent. I would certainly go again

We ate there last night with our friends. The men had steak, my girlfriend has fish and I had the amazing mushroom bean cake. They brought a massive bowl of veggies and potatoes, and a huge bowl of chips.The mushroom bean cake is one of...

A small restaurant with a friendly atmosphere,we visited on a Friday evening along with about 10 other customers,the service was quick,friendly and efficient. The food was served hot, fresh and very tasty. Plenty of choice and reasonably priced.Overall a relaxed and enjoyable evening.

We had a lovely meal. Very good service. The chef is a delight. It's a very nice restaurant in the heart of Malpas. If you get a chance to book a table you should. I had scallops then a rack of lamb. Very tasty.

Vine con dos amigos como un regalo para mi cumpleaños recientes. La comida era excepcional, muy bien cocinados y presentados, así como la comida que tanto mis amigos seleccionados. Nos dieron una botella de vino y todos disfrutamos de su noche. El menú tenía mucho...

Tuvimos una excelente comida aquí. Las opciones del menú eran interesantes y fue difícil decidir qué. Nos sentamos abajo que era acogedor con un ambiente amistoso. Muy buena calidad todos los hosts round y servicial. Advertencia, las raciones son muy generosas!

John and Lou make you so welcome as diners, and get the mix perfectly right when it comes to service without intrusion. John keeps front of house running smoothly whilst wife Lou cooks some fantastic food; joining diners at the end of the meal for an informal chat. Don't pig out too much on starters, mains and desert as a lovely piece of truffle accompanies the modest bill at the end of the night. Nothing is too much for them and John will happily make wine (or port) recommendations with your meal.

Came across this little restaurant by chance one day. We had only just moved to Malpas and were looking for somewhere to have lunch on a Saturday and we were not disappointed. We were really impressed with the lunch choices available and after visiting on a few Saturday's made this our " go to no brainer" for a Friday night after work treat, and we are still going 6 years later. This little restaurant is set over two floors and there is a lovely friendly atmosphere and the owners John and Lou are professional, attentative, vey entertaining and nothing is too much trouble and I'm a fussy eater, but Lou knows exactly what I like. We can recommend everything, the soups are a amazing, calves livers are also a favourite and the lamb, sea bass and steaks are stunning, and all the produce is from local suppliers. There are also vegetarian choices. There is a good choice of delicious wines and John has some specialty beers for the beer drinkers. It's not very often we have room for a pud as the portions are very large, but have tried most of them in the past and can highly recommend them all.Christmas lunch is " to die for" and wouldn't think of going anywhere else wether we are on our own or with the family, (early booking is a must).The restaurant is also available for private hire on a Sunday and Monday when they are usually closed, and although we have not made use of this we know several regular customers who have enjoyed family celebrations here.Please give "A Table at Eatons" a try and you will not be disappointed.

This place really is a gem. All you need to know is that if you love food and like it served to you piping hot then eat here. Good, friendly service, normal prices but the quality is outstanding. I had the pea, asparagus and parmesan risotto to start....oh my, so good. Book a table and enjoy.

Love going to Table at Eatons. It's a family run restaurant where nothing is to much trouble- My sister is dairy intolerant and vegetarian and she was catered for without any problem. Everything is beautifully cooked and perfectly presented. Lovely and cosy too.

Brilliant, intimate environment. Hosts were really friendly and attentive. Food was good and plenty of it. Can't ask for much more. See you again

Fantastic friendly atmosphere. Nothing is ever too much trouble. Delicious food, I especially loved the banoffie pie when I went- I've never tasted a banoffie that was better!

Table at Eatons is a family favourite and we visit as often as we can. Consistently delicious home made meals, generous portions and an excellent selection of wines. Service is professional and welcoming, John and Louise are a First Class team.

If your travelling near Malpas give Eaton's a visit. Really good food. Excellent menu selection The hosts are welcoming and really charming. Exceedingly enjoyable evening

We were in the area over the Valentine's day weekend, and were out of luck with all the restaurants in nearby Whitchurch. Thank God for SatNav! A quick search showed A Table At Eaton's only a few miles outside Whitchurch in a little town called Malpas.The restaurant is located in the heart of the little town, right on a delightful little Market cross. Parking a little way down the main street, it was a short walk up the little steps to the restaurant. Bright lights and a lovely rustic setting glowed out at us on a cold and blustery night. Entering into the warm candle-lit interior, we were met by an extremely friendly and accommodating gentleman who made us feel so very welcome, and helped us to have one of the best dining experiences yet. Our daughter wasn't left out of anything, and was given her own little portions of some of the adult food, and played happily with some crayons, allowing us to continue our meal.And what a meal it was! Although it was the Valentine's evening special meal, it consisted of a delightful series of juxtaposed flavours and textures. Delicious cheese followed by amazing sorbets, then back to mushroom with delicious cheese sauces, all served with perfectly cooked veggies. As we're vegetarians, we have a good sense of under or over-cooked vegetables, and these were done to absolute perfection. The experience ended with a big caffetiere of coffee, amazing dark chocolate slices, topped with raspberries. The presentation was flawless in every case.My only regret is that we live so far away from Malpas, and will be unlikely to be able to head back there any time soon. However, if we're ever in south cheshire, or shropshire, we will be certain to head back to this fantastic restaurant.If you're in the Whitchurch area, and Etzio's is all booked up, jump in the car, and do yourselves a gastronomic favour, and head out to Malpas!

Another successful visit. The food is second to none and is matched by attentive service. Intimate and friendly restaurant. Fabulous. Will be back soon.

We visit here semi regularly and are never disappointed. The food is all cooked fresh and is of an excellent standard. All bases covered on the menu. Quite small downstairs but more seating upstairs. Only minor negative is that the hosts can sometimes be a tad in your face, don't get me wrong they are very very accommodating and are absolutely lovely but sometimes if you want a romantic meal for too it's difficult to break away from convo with them to spend quality time with the other half! But don't let that put you off, try this restaurant...trust me you won't regret it!

Went in for lunch with my 5 year old and 5 month old whilst passing through Malpas and had some first class service and the food was so good we stayed for dessert. The owners and their lovely daughter couldn't do enough for us and were amazingly accommodating, fetching a high chair for the smallest one and changing the oldest ' sandwich as she wasn't keen on the cheese. All for a great price. Highly recommended and we'll definitely make the drive from Chester to dine there again.

What a truly terrific treat we had. The escalopes starter were truly wonderful in a white wine and creamy tarragon sauce. The fillet steak was cooked to perfection with each mouthfull being sumptuous from start to finish. Veg cooked to perfection too with a portion of always tasty home made chips on the side. The Wine went down too well and had to order a second bottle. Sadly had no room for a pudding, but I am sure the banoffee pie would have been 5 star. The ambience was lovely and friendly as per every visit.

We went again this weekend with some friends and the welcome was as friendly as ever and the food as superb as ever. If you like beautifully cooked fresh food and a menu which is different from the norm you won't go wrong here. A refreshing change from the normal plastic food. The restaurant is small and cosy and its just a lovely place to be. I don't know why we don't go more often. Must make a mental note to do so

Just was passing by chance and hungry, dropped by to ask if we could have a table at short notice. Was made to feel really welcomed by owners. Lou is an excellent Chef and her food is delicious and flavoursome!

We usually have brunch on a saturday. always something good on the menu. always well cooked and always polite and well looked after. the only thing i would say is the menu could be changed a bit more often.

This small restaurant has a lovely quiet feel and is lovely to go for superb food cooked by Louise and served by John,who always are very friendly.We have been many times and the standard is always excellent with lovely smooth service and John has always remembered our requests from past visits.Thank you both for consistently tasty food we will be back,of course

So pleased we chose 'Table at Eatons' for our Wedding Anniversary meal, with our 2 daughters. We had a lovely night, the food was superb, beautiful fresh fish, crisp vegetables all cooked with nice little extras. A goods choice of starters, mains and puddings, lovely little extras too, like bread and french toast to nibble whilst browsing the menu .... homemade onion marmalade with the cheese course, and beautiful homemade truffles with the coffee. All served with a smile and cooked to perfection! We haven't been for about 18 months ... I cant understand why, its on our doorstep, its very friendly, its excellent value, good clean food and we should go much more often! We will be back again ..... very soon!

Once again John & Louise provided a very tasty lunch opened especially for us !! Also well done to their little helper Sophie who did a brilliant job many thanks

We came to this restaurant a long time ago and it was excellent. We have gone off and tried many other places, some good, alot bad but after eating at Eatons again i wonder why we have ever bothered going anywhere else. This restaurant is amazing, run by a husband and wife team they have it down to a fine art. Service is efficient and courteous. The food is innovative, fresh, delicious and arrives hot to your table. I had the Salmon with king prawns in a garlic and chilli sauce...sooo good. No airs and graces just a very pleasant and relaxed place. Prices no dearer than most but the quality is worth more.

What a hidden gem this is, as a Christmas treat eight of us visited this quirky little place, the food was amazing, the staff are excellent and funny, we definitely will be coming here again in the not to distant future, it's nice to see a local establishment that does the job right, and would recommend it to anybody

Lovely welcoming small restaurant run by husband and wife team. He does front of house and she cooks.The menu is interesting and all food is beautifully cooked and presented. Nothing is too much trouble. Prices very reasonable for the quality. Our choice restaurant for a special night out.

We booked a table for 7pm on14/11/14. Gorgeous little restaurant. Small menu but there is something for everyone. Food is beautiful and cooked fresh. Owners are very friendly. You must make the effort to visit here. Can't recommend it enough. We will be visiting again.

Have been to this establishment on many occasions and have never been disappointed - very friendly staff and good choice of food expertly provided - would recommend this quaint little village restaurant

Managed to eat here on our second attempt, the first time it was firmly shut when advertised as being open, no notice on door ar anything. I can only assume unless they have bookings they don't bother to open. Is that a good way to run a business?Service much better than our last visit but as we were one of only three tables in the place, that may be the reason. The owner spent most of the time we were there chatting to one of the other tables who perhaps may have been regulars, but we were ignored a bit because of this and our starters remained uncleared for a good fifteen minutes. Food average, reasonably cooked and presented, not very imaginative. Probably wont bother again, lots of very good restaurants in the area

We have been eating here since they opened and have never had less than excellent food. Excellent choice of wines, served at the right temperature. The menu varies but often includes duck. If its on the menu have it, you will not be disappointed. We have never had less than excellent service, I guess anyone can have an off day and feel a bit grumpy though we have certainly never experienced one.The price is a little more than average for a village restaurant, but what you get is very much more than average, so to me , that is a bargain. Its not for every day, but how lucky are we to have a "restaurant for an occasion" just up the road.Love the place and will keep returning.

The food was served nice and quickly, but it wasn't fantastic. It's very expensive for what you get but the staff (man and wife duo) were very rude and unwelcoming. We wont be going back as there are many better restaurants closer to home.

The setting for this is very nice and the building has a lot of character. The food is fine and I think they do a good value set menu.The owner has a bit of Basil Fawlty about him.

We have visited Table at Eaton's a number of time and we have never had a bad meal. Service and Food are both excellent, and despite not being local any more still travel here for special occasions as we know it will not disappoint!I can definitely recommend!

THE best place for proper quality homemade food. The steaks are probably one of the tenderest and tastiest i've eaten and very reasonably priced. Real care and pride is taken in this family run restaurant. Please go and support them as you won't be disappointed!!!

Wonderful, proper food in very pleasant surroundings. Hadn't been for quite a while, but so pleased we made the effort. The good people of Malpas are indeed very fortunate to have this sort of quality on their doorstep.

Unique doesn't begin to describe this restaurant. Always fantastic. Family run and staff really care about customers. Always happy to adapt menu to personal taste and remember likes and dislikes. Drinks already poured on arrival. Venue for my husbands 70th birthday and our silver wedding parties.

Premises are only small but the welcome was huge!Food was excellent - a great start to my eating out for lunch year :-) They don't open everyday so suggest you contact & reserve yourself a place when they are - looking forward to trying the evening menu

We are regular visitors to this restaurant and we love it! Everything is home cooked and, where possible, locally sourced. The owners are lovely and on hand at all times. This place is great if you want a good meal in a small friendly family restaurant. The Duck is outstanding!

I have been to this place a few times over the years ,a Saturday evening, a Sunday lunch or two and a light bite on a Saturday morning and it is good, very good, I have always enjoyed going there . The person who left the "silly silly" comments is a silly silly person.

Well whoever wrote “Horrendous service” needs their head seeing too. We go to this restaurant a lot and it’s my grans favourite eating place, loving family run restaurants, lovely food and atmosphere. We are going back I March for my grans birthday with about 10 family so we are looking forward to that as we always have lovely food.

Lovely food but when we went the place was full but only one person serving drinks /taking orders. It was horrible, he was sweating, wasn't coping at all. The was a lady helping with bringing out the food. We were there for over two hours for two courses. The first course took fifty minutes to arrive. They appear to be trying to cut costs by not employing staff, silly, silly

Homemade food, cooked fresh to order and a seasonal menu means every visit offers something new. Very friendly owners, nothing too much trouble and very fine dining. Has a cosy feel about the restaurant, though can accommodate larger groups too. Lovely for a special evening out. Can offer a high chair for children, and owners would be very accommodating I am sure, though we would probably not choose to take the children to this venue, more a special evening venue than an early meal.

Proper 'home cooked' food with excellent quality ingredients. Sirloin steak cut nice and thick for about £16 with a decent portion of sauce and perfectly cooked veg is a steal. Menu is small, however covers fish, meat and veggie options so no-one will be disappointed and everything is freshly cooked by the husband and wife team. Complimented my steak with some Hobgoblin real ale (no beers on tap but they do have bottles which is fine for a small establishment) which was an excellent match. Good choice of classic desserts, all home made, with proper made thick custard made with double cream! Suggest a night off for 'weight watchers'......

Had been meaning to go for a while, finally got round to it and felt like we were eating in a library. Staff were very friendly but unfortunately the steaks were overcooked, veg soggy and the chips had a burnt taste as though oil was old. Wine choice was great as were chocolate truffle's.

My husband an I were staying locally for a wedding. We came across Eatons by chance and what a lovely meal we had, I especially liked the pan fried cabbage, I had risotto and pork, it was delicious, husband has sirloin that was excellent and there were several choices of sauce to accompany. The sweets were excellent and a nice surprise at the end was the home made chocolate. John and his wife were charming ..... What a team, thank you for a lovely evening.

As frequent customers my hubbie and I always find Eatons to b first class! Husband and wife team work great together always pleasant with great service!! Long may they carry on !!!

A table at eatons is something to be cherished. It is a small family run eatery that serves excellent food in unpretentious surroundings. All dishes that were served were very tasty; however, special mention goes to the steak fillet Rossini and the sticky cape pudding. This was our first visit and will not be our last.

I recently took London guests to 'A Table at Eaton's' and cannot speak too highly of the experience. It was a cold night but the welcome soon cheered us. We were presented with an excellent menu. The freshly cooked food was delicious and the service excellent. I can highly recommend this impressive friendly restaurant.

My brother & new sister-in-law had their wedding breakfast here yesterday, John & his wife couldn't have done any more for us all, the food was exceptional...I live in the Wirral but will definately be visiting the restaurant again. I cannot praise the place enough, haven't had such personal, friendly service for a long time, they made everyone feel very welcome... Thank you

Quaint and inviting with exceptional hosts, we always enjoy our Christmas family get together here.

A fabulous bistro style atmosphere with hosts who really take the time to know and understand their customers - I no longer even need a menu. Very friendly, great surroundings and the food is stunning - they have even put special one-off dishes that we like on the menu in the knowledge that we have booked - when my wife last visited with friends, they even sent a special dessert home for me (obviously pitying the babysitter!!). I take my hat off to the service - definately our favourite restaurant in Cheshire.

We had come to Malpas to visit the fascinating Parish Church and felt in need of sustenance before driving home.. Right in the heart of Malpas, facing the Market Cross we found A Table at Eatons [ the husband and wife who run it jointly] A warm welcome , locally sourced fresh food cooked to order , very reasonably priced plus helpful advice about the area -we will certainly come back..It's obviously popular with locals .
