Blue Cap in Cheshire West and Chester

we would not normally visit a chef and brewer pub as in the past they have seemed expensive for a meal but with all prices going up, they were actually comparably priced had a combination of the pie ,burgers, and the fish good sized portions meals arrived relatively quickly and were well presented and very tasty very impressed also staff very friendly as well if in the area again, we will return

I can honestly say that was the best roast I’ve ever had! We ordered extras but the portion size was so huge we couldn’t eat it all!! Also my ten year old son had a kids meal which isn’t normally big enough but it was great! Great value for him that includes pudding. Can’t wait to come back, staff fantastic also! 10/10 all round!

Today we called in here after a walk in Delamere Forest as we fancied a pub lunch. This place has a beautiful interior with lots of seating, and outside seating for a warm day. The server was absolutely great and helped us decide on dishes. The food came out quick. Everything was good. If im 100% honest my chicken breast was slightly dry but the meal was still nice! Ive had other dishes here before that were really nice, especially the desserts. I’d definitely return as it was decent food at a good price, in a lovely place!

Stopped off with the family for lunch. Three of us had the 4oz steak ciabatta which was delicious and two the equally impressive Chicken and bacon all served with a decent amount of skin on fries. We will definitely be returning.

Excellent, attentive and friendly

Stayed at the premier Inn next door which is a stones throw away, very handy. Evening Sunday. Melted camenberg starter was delicious. The steak and ale pie was nice but had trouble finding much steak in the pie. The Duo of chicken was OK, although the chicken strips were mostly batter and the cold salad and chutney didn't sit well on the same plate with the hot food. All in all, we found the experience very pleasant but rather expensive. A big shout out to Emma, our server who was so lovely and was genuinely looking after us... A lovely young lady, thank you x

Fantastic place to visit, built in 1716, exterior and interior to match. Great staff, very chatty, smiles all around servers Sammi & Harry couldn't do enough for us. My fiancee and I had the best chicken and beefburger that we have ever tasted ang great prices too! Meet the 'Blue Cap' dog and read of his famous exploits! We shall definitely visit again! If you only visit once you shall never forget it!

The team there gave great service for my impromptu breakfast while I was charging my car. They were fantastic. Lovely breakfast.

Went for breakfast and was treated brilliantly by staff. They were very accommodating and helpful. Really nice way to start the day. Thank you!

The service was great and the food was lovely. Emma the waitress was very attentive and overall, we had a very enjoyable meal.

Great food and large portions for the money. Service was atrocious though. Servers forgot requests, frequently disappeared for long periods, and generally seemed to be actively avoiding eye contact so as not to be bothered. A shame because the venue itself and the food were great!

Fantastic food faultless lovely staff very friendly nice atmosphere definitely will be returning excellent 😀

Well run pub. Up to the usual good Chef&Brewer standard. We had a pleasant lunch.

Excellent service from JAKE and KAYZE from the Blue Cap, good value for money. We will be back soon.

Had another lovely meal there yesterday, well worth a visit

Great Sunday roast. Excellent service in a warm, comfortable place.

Possibly the worst Sunday lunch ever. The staff, not welcoming or friendly or helpful. The so called" roast beef served pink" was anything but. Had probably sat under a heat lamp for hours. The only thing enjoyable was our grandson's chocolate brownie. Will definitely not return.

We recently held my father's Wake here. Kate and her team did an excellent job from the initial arranging to the service provided on the actual day. The buffet was plentiful and of a high standard. We received many comments on how nice the food was. Would highly recommend.

Lovely place with a nice, friendly atmosphere. The meal was outstanding. Had a mixed grill and all meat cooked to perfection. Was a delight, and I will be returning.

Great Country Side Pub, Very Welcoming Team And Great Variety Of Food And Drinks! Must try the steak & ale pie!

Food is excellent, the pub had a really good atmosphere, and the staff was extremely pleasant. Only down fall was food, which took nearly half hour saying it wasn't that busy. I thought it was a little too long

We were staying at the Premier Inn next door. and were so impressed with our meal on the first night that we came back again on the second night. The service was excellent, and the food arrived promptly and was also exellent. No complaints at all

Great meal at The Blue Cap.Jake and Josh made us all feel welcome and gave great service. Good team work. Well done, guys.

The food is great, staff are really nice.

Jake managed to gather us a last minute request for a table of ten. Never felt rushed, food was lovely. Definitely went above and beyond for us. Second time we've dined there, would thoroughly recommend. Well done Jake and the rest of the team.

We love it here! Food amazing and service is great.

Brilliant place we have been to a few times now. Big shout out to Jake who was very accommodating and went above and beyond of all the various requests from our large mixed group. Thanks for a great evening!

Hadn’t been to the Blue Cap for a while as our last visit wasn’t the best but we thought we’d try again and I have to say the service was amazing! We were looked after by Jake and Emma who both gave amazing service! I called in person earlier in the day to enquire about some special dietary requirements I had they went above and beyond to accommodate my needs. We were also celebrating my Partners 50th Birthday and the evening was made to feel extra special! I really can’t thank you enough, very clean, amazing food and outstanding customer service! We will most definitely be back soon! Thankyou!

Have now been here many times, staff very accommodating and food is very good. Jake was especially helpful!

Beautiful country pub, with great fresh cooked food. Lovely staff and great cask ale.

What a wonderful lunch - Super welcome on arrival, lovely attentive service, fab menu with lots of choice and varying prices. Delicious sandwich and cracking coffee thanks to the kitchen too. Cosy & warm by the fire - we'll be back:)

Great food with great service, Jake served us

Nice ambience, tasty well-prepared food and our waitress Emma was lovely.

The food was amazing and the service impeccable. This was the first time we have gone to the Burns Night at the Blue Cap, no other reason than work responsibilities but we were glad we went on the 25th January this year. Can not rave enough about the quality of food and as said before the impeccable service. Can not wait to go as soon as my husband and myself get a night off together. Please keep up the fantastic work.

I visited this charming establishment while I stayed at the Premier In next door. I found the experience very delightful. Friendly and accommodating staff, warm atmosphere, and a varied menu choice with occasional "Specials". Enjoyed every meal, tasty and filling. Must mention there Mushroom and Ale pie, Smothered Chicken, and crispy Cod and Chips. Definitely recommended

Excellent service from polite and professional staff. Both the food and drinks were excellent. We look forward to returning as soon as possible.

Went for food last night at the blue cap and had the best burger ever! The staff are brilliant they’re very welcoming and friendly it’s honestly truly the best pub in Northwich

Enjoyed some great food & drinks in here today following a countryside walk!! Great atmosphere and a real fire to warm away the wintery chills! Staff friendly and helpful!! Will be revisiting soon!!!

Visited for the burns night menu. Although there only appeared to be a handful of staff, all very attentive and readily available. Food was great from the 4 course special menu, especially the second course which was the haggis. Food was piping hot and good portion sizes. Very enjoyable food and evening.

Hi visited the pub with 2 friends who haven’t been before Knew it would be good food as usual Surprised it was as quiet as it was but it was all good and food exceeds expectations taste wise !

Me and my family had a lovely meal at the Blue Cap tonight. My son and daughter have sensory needs and it can be difficult and very overwhelming for them when we eat out. From the moment we were seated at our table, the staff could not of been more welcoming and accommodating they made us feel completely at ease. The food was lovely the portions were big, and we will definitely be going back in the future.

Just a great relay place to have a drink and meal, friendly staff, nice food and ambience.

Great food, warned about a delay as we got there but everything was fine. Service and staff were brill.

Great pub, fantastic friendly service. Hearty Sunday Roast.

The food was excellent and Mary was extremely helpful!

Went in for Sunday Lunch I would recommend it was the lovely one best I had in a while, ordered the trio of roast, and Turkey times two, and the Pork all was well cooked, and ordered extra Macaroni cheese side.

Went over Christmas, great beer, brilliant atmosphere. Friendly staff and dog friendly. Perfect. We didn't have food on this occasion, but it did look good, next time😊

Really good quality food & nice atmosphere

The food was delicious, the mulled wine was so nice we had seconds, and the staff were pleasant and attentive. The space was warm and inviting and we didn't feel at all rushed. It was a lovely, relaxed meal out

Brilliant service and food. Jake the manager couldn't have been more helpful. I would definetly recommend even if you just fancy a drink bar side or food restraunt side you won't be disappointed.

Group dining after a walk in the area.

We were met by lovely staff and because I have trouble with stairs they made sure we were seating just inside restaurant. The service was great. Food was hot and enjoyable.

Excellent food, 5* service by Jake & Sammy nothing was to much trouble. Lovely atmosphere Can definitely recommend a visit to the Blue Cap

Had a lovely meal here today. My partner had the mixed grill and I ordered the smothered chicken. The lady who took the order forgot to put on my meal which was obviously a genuine mistake but was more than rectified. When the meal came out it was absolutely lovely and I enjoyed a liqueur coffee afterwards. We didn't complain as I've worked in hospitality in the past and you feel mortified as it is when you make mistakes without customers kicking off so we let it go. When we paid the bill, the smothered chicken meal had been taken off so of course we were more than happy with the gesture. Thank you for a lovely meal and we will be back 😊

Such a lovely welcoming place, so dog friendly. Lovely atmosphere. We can't score food as on this occasion we didn't eat but food looked amazing, we will definitely have a meal next time. Absolutely great place, we and our dogs loved it x

Myself and my partner visited here twice last year once in August and once in December. On both visits we were greeted by a lovely member of staff who gave us both a warm welcoming smile. The staff member showed us to our table and gave us time to look at the menu. I would recommend Blue Cap in Sandiway, Chester to any of my friends and family even if you are just passing through.

Great place to go for your usual pub meal. We had the mushroom pie and the steak and ale pie. Atmosphere was lovely. Whenever in the area make this place is on your list to try.

Food was perfect. Really tasty and not too much. Staff can’t do enough to ensure a lovely visit. Toilets were immaculate. Shout out to Emily and Stacy who waited on us during our visit. Will definitely call again. 🥰

Food over cooked and almost burnt

For the price of the food, it was a bit disappointing. The meals all came with some ingredients missing (which when mentioned, were brought over straight away - some with a bit of a fuss however). The veggie sausage butty was clearly reheated sausages as they’d gone hard. The food was nice other than that. Disappointed to find the premier inn breakfast finished at 10:00 but the brunch menu was still okay.

Warm Warm welcome by staff on arrival polite & curtias. Shown to our table which was well set out with a birthday message for our friends birthday. Thank you.

Booked for Sunday lunch and ordered 2 soups one rib of beef and one roast turkey dinner. The soup was tasteless and the waiter spilled part of it on the table . The main courses arrived both cold and the turkey had a bad texture and strange taste. We never complain as a rule but felt we had to in this instance. The waitress apologised and said their turkey was like marmite some liked it others didn't!!! They only charged us for one meal which we accepted but wouldn't go again

The customer service here tonight was excellent, waitress with the brunette hair and guy with the glasses — very friendly and attentive. Food was great too, highly recommend.

Went in for a drink ,didnt have food but it looked nice,very dissatisfied with the service, lady behind the bar, was quite happyto ignore us and serve people that came in after us,she didnt seem interested unless it was someone she knew ,just moved to area so will be giving the place a miss from now on

Great food served swiftly. Jake and Harry looked after us and were really nice to our two boys. Definitely recommended.

Very tasty steak and ale pie. Great staff. Dog friendly in the tiled area.

Excellent service and good food

Came in for a few pints Stood waiting at the bar for 12 minutes Barman (although apologetic after he served 5 other people who i was before told me food takes priority The ale is very heavily priced and lime and sofa still £4.50 a pint I gave it another chance Last time really

Food was very good, lovely atmosphere and the staff were very friendly. Would definitely recommend

Had a lovely breakfast made by Simon, Stacy and Tina looked after us as usually really good experience thanks again. We will be visiting you again.

Wonderful staff the girls Tina and Stacey could not do enough for me also the chef Chris went out of his way to provide me with a special request my experience was utterly wonderful.

We had our Sunday tea at the Blue Cap Sandiway Cheshire, and we were not disappointed. Wonderful food (7 hour Beef rib) and we had fantastic service from Jake and Emma thank you very much.

Booked Sunday dinner and it didn't disappoint. Had cheesy garlic bread as a bit of a starter which was great . All 3 of us had the triple roast Sunday lunch and service from Jake was great as was the food. Definitely will be going again soon

Lovely Staff! Particularly Jake and Emma who were very friendly! The food was delicious and we will definitely be coming back!

I had a wonderful meal at The Blue Cap, particularly the steak, which was cooked to perfection. The cozy atmosphere and attentive staff made for a great dining experience. Highly recommend!

Absolutely love the Blue Cap! We go almost every week and still can’t get enough. The food is amazing - the burger is the best burger I’ve ever had and everything else on the menu is delicious too. The staff are super friendly and always happy to help, thanks Harry and Ella for looking after us every Saturday!

Nice family meal, Food was good, Stacy & Sammi were friendly & attentive.

Excellent choice for vegetarians, food was lovely and friendly staff.

This is a late review, I went there 3 weeks ago it was a busy night, but staff where fantastic Josh and Emily excellent service, will definitely be there again

Had a lovely breakfast there last week, food was amazing and the waitress told me of all the changes made to the kitchen and menus recently that seem to be working …. and the ladies who served me were very very helpful …. Nothing was too much trouble will definitely be back thank you Tina and Stacy

Breakfast was amazing thank you for looking after us Tina Would definitely recommend

Excellent service the 3 evenings we had dinner there. All meals and puddings were fantastic, yummy and filling, and lots to choose from 😋. Specially want to thank Emma who served us the 3 evening. What a very lovely, happy, cheerful young lady you have working for you 😃👍. Thankyou Emma for making our evenings super. Tel & Jen xx

Lovely meal, lots of choice, very pleasant friendly server Emma.

Excellent all round. Served by Emma who was the consummate host. Nothing was too much trouble and was very chatty and pleasant. The food itself to mix, grills, garlic, bread, and belly pork we're all cooked to perfection, so no complaints whatsoever.

Decent pub food menu with nice specials. Nicely finished inside. Great service from Emma, really friendly and attentive.

Superb Sunday Dinner …..came with the wife , I had the traditional turkey and my wife had pork, the food was quite excellent, the meat was cooked to perfection the vegetables delicious and we ordered the sides (cauliflower cheese and pigs in blankets) which topped the meal off to perfection. Harry, Emma and Sammy looked after us all afternoon and we had to thank the chefs Chris , Simon and Charlotte as it was the best Sunday dinner we have enjoyed in a long long time

Where do I begin. Great food, great service and excellent surroundings. The staff were friendly and attentive. Nothing was too much trouble. Well worth a visit.Well done Kayte and team.

The menu offers more imaginative food than is usually found in pubs. It was well cooked and well presented. The service from Emily was efficient and friendly.

I have rated food, service & atmosphere as 5 stars. However I could only give 3 stars overall as I can't see how you can charge £7-40 for a regular Coke -definitely a rip off. This will definitely affect my thoughts on returnig

Went with friends & we all had the 2 course set meal, great food & exceptional waitress, thank you so much Emily, we were very impressed with your service 😊

Another wonderful lunch at the Bluecap. Special mention to Josh, (on bar ) and Harry,( front of house) for wonderful service and great welcome. Such a credit to the pub. We both had the fishcakes which were cooked to perfection. We will be back. Xxx 💞

Been in here a few times for food and drinks,called in today Saturday afternoon for a quick drink,stood at the bar for almost 10 minutes in an almost empty pub,no bar staff appeared 😳 used the loo and my wife did as well still no bar staff,decided to leave as not what you expect when you call in for a drink 🤦‍♂️

We had a great evening meal at Blue Cap, with outstanding service from our waitress Emma — she was really friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. The best customer service I’ve experienced anywhere in some time — thanks!

Used for breakfast with Premier Inn. Many buffet items missing. Quite expensive for what was on offer for continental breakfast.

Great meal served by a lovely lady Emma. Thank you.

Absolutely loved Blue Cap, from the first pint, to the last crumb, nothing could have gone better. Staff who are pleasant and jovial to entrees, mains and sweets that tantalise the taste buds, the experience was enjoyed by all of us... well except the bill payer " me".... 😂

A lovely meal here on Sunday - food was delicious and the service was great. Jake and Harry went over and above and recommended fantastic dishes (especially desserts!) Will definitely be back!

Excellent meal and friendly service from Alex and Jake.

A lovely meal, and we were looked after so well by Emily, Emma and Ella. Looking forward to going again soon.
