Aprils Kitchen in Cheshire East

Had my works do here on Friday and had a brilliant night. Food was amazing. All the staff were lovely. Definitely would visit again

I recently visited Aprils unfortunately by experience was marred by witnessing some uncomfortable behaviour. While the food was pleasant, I was taken aback by how I saw the managers treating their staff. Multiple times during my visit, I observed managers speaking to employees in a way that seemed unnecessarily harsh and unprofessional. It is never pleasant to see staff members - who are working hard to make customers' experience pleasant to be treated poorly by their own management. This creates a negative atmosphere for the staff but also affects the overall vibe of the cafe.

£18.50 for a small chicken sandwich + fries which tasted like supermarket oven fries, very bland and raw. Massively overpriced and service was poor, definitely can’t justify the prices for the food or service.

Came here whilst in Knutsford shopping, drinks were really tasty and the food was incredible. We had the Huevos Rancheros (add feta) and the Pesto Poached Eggs. Both were so tasty and really filling, poached eggs cooked to perfection. All the flavours blended perfectly and the restaurant was just overall a lovely vibe with nice staff. Would come here again!

Had the poke bowl with peri-peri chicken was delicious 😋

Went in for breakfast Sunday morning, very nice place, nice and clean and friendly staff, food was amazing

Lovely little tea room, breakfast light meals place. All sourced locally. Family runned excellent choice of healthy food. I do recommend. They do accommodate takeaway, welcome children. The girls at the entrance were lovely and friendly specially ciara, Ellie and caitlin

A bit expensive but good quality food

A bottle of sparkling water £6.50 ridiculous price....Next time tap water....

+ good, friendly service - the poke bowl was £16 (basically rice salad and tofu) and I was still hungry after it, small portion. The service charge is added on to the bill without being offered a choice. Everywhere is doing this now and it’s not fair - you’d feel too awkward to ask for it to be taken off. The service was good so I didn’t mind paying it but I should be given the option. Another £1 was added on the bill for a climate charge without being offered the option too. Wouldn't recommend and I won’t be back.

Lovely clean little bistro, just popped in for a coffee and cake. Very nice and recommend the place.

We had a corporate retirement party at Aprils for around 25 employees and we had the best time here. Forbes and the staff were so helpful leading up to the event and on the night itself. We wanted to decorate the place and also hire a singer and Forbes was very helpful in giving information regarding suppliers they had used in the past. Everyone was so thrilled with the venue, the food, the staff, the decorations/singer. Couldn't thank the team enough, definitely recommend this place for future events.

Food and staff really good night out I can’t not fault anything the singer they had on tonight I’m surprised she hasn’t been signed yet she that me and my girlfriend have had a fantastic night Liam from ATS Knutsford

What a great place. I had a fabulous Hugo cocktail and a smoked bacon bagel. Delicious. I’ll definitely return.

Had a private party here and really enjoyed it. Staff were great friendly and service was excellent. Eaten here before and the food was very nice.

Great breakfast and lovely staff! We got the April's Special which was the Reuben Sandwich and the French Toast with bacon and maple sirup. The place is cozy and comfortable, will gladly visit again.

We had the mixed platters delivered to our office over the road and they were excellent value and well received by all in our meetings. Will definitely use again. Good service, arrived on time and very tasty, thank you. NFU Mutual Knutsford

We ordered the lunch sandwich platter for a business networking event. The food was beautiful and the team very kindly delivered it to our office. 5 star service!

We hired Aprils for an exclusive ladies charity night. The staff were absolutely fantastic throughout organising and also on the night. Very friendly and couldn't do more to make our evening a huge success. We definitely recommend Aprils. The food and drinks were amazing. Thank you.

I used Aprils to cater a family party at home. I chose a selection of their platters which were absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. I would definitely recommend and will be using their home catering service again.

Been a few times and the food is amazing, and good size portion. Nice staff and a really nice restaurant. Lots of great choices. Highly recommend.

Really great place for brunch! We were really happy with the service and quality of food. My husband is celiac and they catered for him incredibly well and we both had a lovely meal.

Really lovely brunch and atmosphere. Food was really tasty and lots of options available. Staff were really friendly

I bought sandwiches from here on Sunday, it's now wednesday and I'm sure they'll still be laughing at me! The food was nice but i was charged £40.50 for 3 breakfast sandwiches and a coke i have no idea how they can justify these prices! AVOID!

Too many additional charges at the end. But food, service and atmosphère was lovely

Food great but draught beer rank

Really nice Brunch on a rainy Wednesday. Crushed avocado toast was really simple but really nice and just what I needed

I went for brunch, was seated and then ignored for ages whilst 3 of the waitresses chatted away to each other at the bar and the 2 chefs were on their mobile phone. The pancakes were ok. The bill included a 10% tip which didn't seem to have an option to remove, plus a carbon neutral fee! So pancakes and a glass of orange juice for 1 person was £17.16. I definitely wouldn't return or recommend.

Wow, what can I say, steak & eggs were to perfection, smoothies, coffee spot on, great atmosphere, staff lovely all with a smile, also big shout out to the Chef. Ian & Victoria

Stopped by with my partner on our way home from a holiday in the Lake District. We were attracted by the fact that they cater for Vegans (I'm vegan). We were greeted on arrival and as we hadn't booked the only table they had for us was in the middle of two other couples and we were very close (more on that to follow). The food was outstanding - I had the Plant Breakfast with extra avocado, my partner had the Salmon and Cheshire eggs. Both were impeccably cooked and very generous portions. The only slight negative was the coffee, it was quite bland - not sure why this was. The food is quite pricey here, but it is very good quality and the service was quick and efficient. The real negative was how close the tables are together. One of the couples we sat next to were some of the most aggressively pretentious people I've ever had the misfortune of being within earshot of. They were banging on about how they avoid seed oils and their microbiomes, which mantras they were using and how a podcast had changed one of their lives. It made for an extremely uncomfortable dining experience. I would like to think this wouldn't happen to most people and we were unlucky. All in all I would recommend April's for the food and the service but unless you like being sat on top of people and having to listen to their conversation then I would avoid it.

Amazing Smash Burger on specials - £15 OMG was worth every penny. Double burger double crispy bacon and double cheese. Fab staff as always

Love April's Kitchen - will keep coming back for the Buddha bowl.

Fabulous food and drinks at reasonable prices 👌 The smoked salmon and scrambled egg croissant with watercress was divine!! Great presentation and very good quality food and drinks. Excellent service and lovely friendly and attentive staff. I would definitely recommend a visit and I will be returning 😀 😊

Enjoyed a brilliant brunch today. Excellent service and delicious humble breakfast ingredients served elegantly. Would highly recommend. Thank you Forbes Hunter and all the team.

Sjll atmosphere Carbon Charge in top of service charge which BTW was average at best I won't be paying your carbon charge or service charge again as I won't be revisiting Plenty of other places to enjoy.

This is a popular place in Knutsford for brunch / lunch. Went with my kids and were seated at the back. We had mini stacked pancakes and pesto eggs, both were really nicely presented and tasty. Service was good. We had a small sparkling water and tea. Was surprised when the bill came (£30 for 1.5 meals including £7 for 2 drinks). The decor is a bit too retro for my taste but I can see why people like it. Given the affluence of Knutsford, I can see why it does so well but for me it was a little too pricey. Would recommend if you’re not worried about budget.

Terrible watery and tasteless coffee and vastly overpriced. Poor service even though it wasn't busy. Won't be returning.

Quite possibly the worst cup of coffee I've had in the last 20 years. Tasted like it came from a vending machine in a bus station. Over-priced as well. Won't be returning.

One of my favourites in knutsford, great food, good coffee and excellent team

We dined in as a party of 3 plus a baby to have brunch. It had good plant based options. I ordered the plant based breakfast. It was good. The service was friendly and quick and the decor in the restaurant was cool. The other two in our parry had Buddha bowls which were tasty. Slightly on the expensive side.

Charged over£8 for two coffees. Tip and carbon tax added on. Paid before realising. No refund for carbon tax. No show ever again.

My wife organised a surprise birthday party for me using AK as a private venue. The evening couldn’t’t have been any better. A lovely welcome for all the guests. The food, service & atmosphere were all perfect; a most memorable evening. A special “thank you” to Forbes and the staff for looking after us so well. See you soon

Easy going place with great food and service. I visit regularly and would highly recommend.

What a little gem. Found by accident. Great food and great service. Piping hot soup. Portions very generous too.Very clean toilets!

Sat in heated outdoor room, service was very good. Pancakes tasted very nice but were a little dry, lashings of maple syrup required!

Really tasty brunch here, i would highly recommend. Lovely time staff attentive, if not a bit over the top. My food was great perfect spot for breakfast!

Came in without a booking and got seated right away. The food and drinks were all amazing and the service was great too. I had the American style pancakes with bacon and maple syrup and it was DELICIOUS. I also got myself the ‘Six of the Best’ smoothie which was really yummy! Would definitely recommend stopping in!

Excellent coffee, carrot cake and frangipane. Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and clean. The hot food looked great too! Excellent service from Amelia.

This place is way too expensive for my liking plus they add a service charge and a carbon free dining charge to the bill, whatever that is?? Food I would say was average for the cost, 2 omelettes and 2 small glasses of fresh orange £33 wow! Staff, quick on getting the menus to us but took 10mins to take the order, then had to put on our jackets and stand to get the bill, need to be a bit more pleasant also to be honest, service with a smile would have been nice. I certainly won't be coming back here, other places locally serving as good food for a lot less cost. Appeared to be a I'm it your $#/£ venue.

Very slow service - lunchtime. Took 20 minutes before our drinks order was taken and they said they couldn't take the food order until the drinks were delivered to our table which took another 10 minutes. Friendly staff. Enjoyed the food. A 10% service charge was automatically added to our bill.

April's coffee is delicious. It comes with a glass of iced water (great idea) and a mini chocolate baton. Great presentation but most importantly, it's consistently tasty coffee. Staff are always friendly.

First time visiting, very impressed. Nice atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff

Food is good but only 2 stars because of hidden charges. Service charge and some kind of charity scheme added automatically to the bill. If you wish to be a money grabbing company you are welcome. Doesn’t work for me as a customer. With these charges the food becomes very expensive. Won’t be visiting again.

Very good area and nice service 👍

Really good breakfast but service shockingly poor!

Been a few times here and it never disappoints. The food is perfect and the staff are lovely. The Eggs Benedict with smoked bacon was cracking!

Great tea and nice food. All you need. Staff lovely too.

went to Aprils for lunch on Sunday 24th July had a wonderful experience the staff were super friendly and helpful even though they were busy they still put on a smile the food was amazing would 100% recommended will go again

Found this place when looking for somewhere to eat breakfast at. We are a brother, sister, auntie & friend that work together. The menu was excellent. Full of plenty of food choices. My auntie is vegan and was so happy with her food. Presentation beautifully done. Staff serving the table and kitchen were all really lovely. I needed a good breakfast following a bad hotel one the previous day !! If we come back to the area we will definitely return - thank you!

Delicious Plant Power Breakfast

Our daughter celebrated her birthday here recently with a large group of her friends. Very friendly staff & the food was delicious plus a great atmosphere. Definately a returning customer !!

Amazing staff,very good food atmosphere is brilliant

Brill service from matt and Alice . food and drink fab. Would come again. Cocktails and food are just gorgeous x

The perfect breakfast before setting off and travelling down south, very generous portions in the full English but not too much. The coffee was very good too, I just wish I had taken a picture of the food before it was gone. 10/10

Food is always good for lunch. One of our favourite places in K-town

Beautifully prepared and presented food! Delicious and tasted super fresh. The tofu and coconut lime rice were amazing . Not only is the food incredible but the atmosphere is welcoming and helpful friendly staff make it a special place to eat 🥰

Had breakfast yesterday such a lovely uplifting cosy place, varied menu so much choice!

A great breakfast and good coffee prepared and served by the 3 Es. Ella, Elodie and Emma Good music in the background too.

Ugh, a Vegan up-charge… it’s not needed and it’s certainly not classy. Give that a rethink guys, especially if you’re adding the ironic “carbon” offset to each bill anyway. ✌️🌱

Super cute trendy restaurant! Great vegan options!

Ktown’s best spot! 101% recommend! 😅😅😅😅😅

Best Avo in ktown!! RECOMMEND 👍

Exceptional breakfast ,great service

I think I am now a regular at April’s Kitchen, it’s a great little ‘hidden gem’ where I come and get a quick breakfast or a quiet lunch during my visits to Knutsford from London. The space is vibrant and fun, I love the choice...

Fantastic food as always at April's. Had the full English breakfast and it didn't disappoint, especially the sausages. Highly recommended

I like it here, it is cozy, tasty and a bit trendy. The food is good but when i ordered they didn't have the right thing and swapped a bunch of stuff. It was almost a different order when it came to me. 8/10

We have been many times for coffee and occasionally for breakfast, which was excellent by the way. This time we dropped in at lunch time and both enjoyed the superb club sandwich, which seemed a bit pricey but was actually well worth it. Nice friendly...

Went here for breakfast together after my wife visited earlier in the week for breakfast. I went for the full English, my wife had the pancake stack. Wonderful food, will definitely be back soon.

Came here for breakfast. The food was fantastic and the service excellent. We were given a table that perfectly fit our needs and had a great atmosphere. Highly recommend.

My Friend and I went to April’s for breakfast this morning and it was lovely. Great selection of breakfast choices . Well presented and staff very pleasant. We sat at the front , where it was lovely with a heater lamp on , would recommend.

Welcoming, laid back atmosphere. Amazing staff and service. Incredible food!

Very tasteless food, no seasoning at all used in both our dishes. We had to send back but didnt want to bother with a replacement. Manager/waitress understanding but unfortunately wont be back

Friends and I visited Aprils on Saturday night around 10pm for a cocktail. Imagine our surprise when we were turned away at the door because the staff were too busy to serve us. Looking through to the bar we could see that tables were occupied...

Last minute Saturday brunch! Great place and we preferred to dine in the tables outside with heating! Huevos Rancheros with a side of sausages was amazing! Oh and decaf oat lattes were tasty!

Lovely food in this trendy cafe of Knutsford. Can be busy so take that into consideration if you want to go there.

Fantastic food and great service as always.

Please review your prices…£6 for a single piece of cheese on toast…. I really want to love Aprils, I really do..:but I can’t get past their prices. I took my daughter in this week and we were charged over £20 for 2 drinks, cheese on...

Superb! Highly recommend the coffee and the breakfast options. Great place for a bite to eat.

My wife and I visited for brunch on the way home from Manchester and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The coffee was well presented, with a glass of water in the side and the food was beautiful. Highly recommended.

Had a really lovely lunch here, the food was great, the staff were wonderful and helpful and it had a really nice atmosphere, will definitely visit again!

Came here on my lunch break with mum & sister was super impressed. Food was amazing Service was quick- was in and out within an hour Staff were lovely Such a nice place will definitely be back loved it!

Lovely place to stop for a coffee or a milkshake. The drinks were really well presented and the service was friendly and efficient too. The lunch menu looked good but sadly we only had time for drinks.

Working in Knutsford this morning so called in here for a bite to eat and a drink I couldn’t fault the breakfast of Pesto Eggs… Drinks were a little on the small size, especially the Latté, but geez they know how to charge for coffee...

Came in with on Thursday this week for brunch. The decor is lovely and everywhere is spotlessly clean. Our waiter was unfriendly and unsmiling. The food and drinks were good, but nothing spectacular. The problem with this place are the prices. e.g. 15 for a...

A bit disappointed today. Nice styling, nicely presented food however - wrong drinks delivered 3 times, waiting staff not that attentive, a pancake “stack” is normally more than 2 pancakes, pancakes were also bland and a bit tasteless, we were expecting croissants to be warm but they were served stone cold and no better quality than those in the co-op garage, and although really good quality butter was served, the cheapest most tasteless jam was included in a plastic service station type packet. There are good things about April’s but there are a lot of things that could be improved to make me choose it over all the other Knutsford options for the price.

Love this place! Food and staff always amazing and friendly. Food is a bit pricey but worth what you pay. Waiter today was new but came across as fully experienced and was only his 2nd shift. I always change items on the breakfast and this...

We went for breakfast which we were not disappointed by. Good selection of healthy foods Only down side is that it's a little cramped sitting inside.

Really friendly staff and great food. Would definitely recommend

Cracking breakfast and really friendly staff. The steak and eggs was superb and good value for money 👍

The service was lovely and the coffee, while very overpriced, was good. The visit was marred however by what happened at the table next to ours. The family had a dog with them and I couldn't believe my eyes when they lifted the dog up...
