Carriages Tattenhall in Cheshire West and Chester - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

great place great staff wish we could have stayed longer really nice people the food was really lovely and the beer really great

Stayed August bank holiday in the wild camping field, fantastic pitch nice & private, brilliant pub with lovely food. The campsite was very warm & welcoming, a massive shout out to Andrea who works on the bar, fantastic lady who goes above & beyond to make you feel welcome, her daughter also very friendly, entertainment team we’re also great, will definitely be back again, can not recommend it enough. See you all soon. John Lisa & Ellie.x

The plot was next to a very busy main road opposite which was a building site, the noise was constant from both. The pub and restaurant were closed. We booked and paid for 2 nights, but, stayed only one. Very disappointed as we were expecting a peaceful break.

Fantastic place to stay. Good rates, good food, friendly service. Great location for days out. Lots to do in this area. Pub and food onsite too

Cracking campsite. Small quiet site with both electric hookup pitches and cleverly thought out wild camping pitches. Bar/restaurant onsite with excellent food and friendly staff. Highly recommended.

We stopped somewhere else and stumbled across the carriages while looking for somewhere to eat what a stunning building! Dog friendly which was amazing for us as we have two small dogs. Very friendly! Couldn’t do enough for us! Portion sizes amazing. Food simply stunning my husband ordered steak and ale pie I had baguette and chips The chips are on another level! Highly recommend We will be vaxk in a couple of weeks 5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

What can I say hmm Well I would really really like to leave a rotten review just so I could read the reply from the owner paul but alas he will have to save his wise words for someone more deserving of his wrath.... Seriously though me and my partner had a fantastic stay the place is lovely the people are lovely, millie (the dog) is adorable, nothing is too much trouble for the owners and site staff, I only wish we could of stayed longer but hey ho we are already planning our next visit and we only got back today, the pub food was great as was the company.... By the way no ducks to see here ha ha see you all soon x

A fab afternoon spent. Good food, the best chips I’ve tasted, and excellent service and friendly staff.

I called with a view to making a booking for dining. I asked whether the venue was showing sports as it says ‘Country Pub & Dining’ on the sign outside. The person who answered the phone rather rudely and abruptly dismissed me and said, “No. Why would I?”, cutting our conversation short. The ‘family-run’ venue clearly did not think our money was good enough.

Came here for some lunch and our card would not scan so we’re unable to pay for food and drinks. They offered us food at a very reduced price and the food was AMAZING! Recommend to everyone!

Great little place to stop over for a few days. Pitch lovely and clean. Next to a road so some traffic noise but not enough to be a nuisance. Owners friendly and helpful. Didn't manage to eat in the pub as they were fully booked but had a few drinks. Pub lovely. Hardly anyone in whilst we were in there, but obviously due to Covid that's what you'd expect. Great base for exploring Chester. Ice cream farm up the road and The Crocky Trail nearby. As is Cheshire Oaks and Chester Zoo. Would definitely stay again for a couple of nights if up that way again.

After a complete camping disaster (no fault of theirs - wish I'd checked air beds as well as tent) they went out of their way to accommodate us in the b&b. Great service, clean room and friendly hosts. Excellent for visiting Chester zoo, also had a great day out in New Brighton.

We decided to camp at a local site when our wedding was cancelled due to COVID-19. We booked here for food on the night we should’ve been hosting our friends & family and what a great decision it was! After ordering our food the chef (whom was also the owner) came to see us as he was aware of the situation and offered us a meal that wasn’t on the menu (sirloin steak, hand cooked chips, mushrooms, tomatoes etc.) along with surprising us with bubbles to accompany a great meal. Afterwards we had the chef’s special chocolate dessert which was also delicious. Staff were very attentive and owners were nothing short of fantastic and made what was a down day due to losing our wedding day very special. We will be back and plan to camp onsite too.

AWFUL. 4 mums all in our 30s and a group of children all under 10. We sat outside as there was a big group of us. It started to rain so the children got an umbrella to put up, a few bugs fell out so they panicked one off us mums helped to put the other up. As doing so a small angry bald man (found out he is the owner) came storming out, shouting ‘those umbrellas are down for a reason” we said it’s raining so we’re putting them up and he said I’ve been watching you on CCTV, we responded with ok it’s raining so we’re putting them up for us and the children on that table too, he continued to shout at us and said you wouldn’t do that at home don’t do that here 😤 all shocked beyond belief we said don’t speak to us like that especially in front of our children! He stormed away back inside and said come inside we said we didn’t want to sit inside and will be getting a refund. We went back into the pub and again said sit in here. We said no we’re getting a refund and he said oh well I don’t care. We asked a young girl behind the bar if he always did this and she said he doesn’t like kids? We had just come from the ice cream farm which is close by so not great really is it!! A lady came to give us a refund. And I’d like to add it was only the two young girls who said sorry to us. We then went to the black dog which is about 5 minutes away and wow what a difference in service from the get go. I hate leaving bad reviews especially in the current economy but I can’t quite believe how bad we have been treated.

Stayed for one night at carridges in a tent. Pitch up was perfect. Paul and the lady behind the bar were wonderful and really helped us all with the covid rules in place so we were all at ease. Paul even came over to our tent to introduce himself and ask us what we were cooking for tea. Hahaha ! Toilets were very clean and up to maximum standard. Will definitely be returning.

We visited as we were meeting goo£ friends for Saturday lunch and boy how glad we were we did. There’s a lovely country aspect to this place which certainly adds to the ambiance which is lovely anyway.The staff are friendly and relaxed while still being professional which is always good.There are a good choice of starters ,light bites ,mains and deserts. Everything is home cooked and just delicious.I had lentil and bacon soup with lasagna for my main. You could just tell the mince was high quality and the dish was really tasty.We will be back.Couldn’t recommend this place high enough.

Called in for a coffee and lunch - what a treat! The chips are AWESOME, we had the bacon, Brie and cranberry baguettes, super tasty, and great coffee too Fabulous service, really friendly team - thank you!

We chose carriages for a pre Carfest stopover and we stayed for 3 nights in our caravan in the adjacent field. Paul and Diane were excellent hosts, attentive and looked after us well. We had a delicious lunch in the relaxing bar area. Would definitely visit again and maybe stay in one the four b & b rooms over the restaurant. Thank you for a most enjoyable stay.Z & c

We called here after visiting the nearby Ice Cream Farm (also worth a visit) with our 3 year old son. We were made to feel exceptionally welcome and the staff could not do enough for us and were so friendly with our little one. Food was exceptional for a lunchtime menu with it being tasty, fresh and excellent value for 3 good sized meals (so large we couldn’t finish them) and 5 drinks coming in around £45 Our son was even treated to an ice cream free of charge once he woke from a contented full tummy doze on one of the comfy sofas. There are many other places around this pub however I cannot recommend the Carriages enough.

Fantastic service. Excellent with kids. We felt so welcome. The kids got special attention. They were fed first and had games to play after whilst the adults ate. The food is excellent too. Great steaks and a number of other tasty dishes. If you are looking for a quality evening with friendly owners and good cuisine come here. Literally so good we came back for another meal the following evening.

Stayed for two nights in motorhome...didn't use ehu/showers but looked great.There's a great atmosphere and Paul walks the site every morning to make sure youre still alive :)Food and service is excellent and great value, nothing seemed too much trouble.Would definetly recommend and return in the future.Thank you for making our weekend relaxing and fun.

Stayed Saturday night. Paul and Diane make all feel at home. Had a great laugh meeting others who had pitched up over the weekend, including the Whitby couple in their Bijou Suzuki camper. The meals on Saturday and Sunday lunch( pork belly) were superb. Thanks.

Stayed in the camping field on Saturday nght, great fun and food in the pub. Had the steak pie which was worth the visit alone, food was so good stayed for Sunday lunch and the beef was outstanding. Will definitely visit again.

We booked to stay on the campsite in our tent along with the dog for two nights. We couldn't have picked a wetter weekend if we tried! But we had a great time despite this, and Paul and Diane were brilliant,and couldn't do enough for us, even offering us free accommodation in one of the rooms if we wanted it, with the weather set to get worse, luckily we didn't need to take them up on it, but the offer was very much appreciated. We also decided to book a Sunday lunch in the restaurant after readying the rave reviews about it, and it didn't disappoint! We shall definitely be returning there again in the future.

We came here for lunch before taking our baby for his birthday to the ice cream farm. 6adults and one baby. We were welcomed by two gorgeous dogs!!! Then the owners were so helpful. High chair given straight away. The chef came up to us and asked what he could make for our baby, and made him a little plate of fish finger, mash and peas! As he is so small a plate of food would have been too much. He preceded to make this for him while the rest of us decided what to have so he didn't have to wait so long! This was really helpful and made our day! The food was also perfect! Thank you so much for a lovely visit!

Stayed for 3 nights with our camper. Great location to explore Chester, Liverpool etc. Had a fabulous time being able to get excellent food and a pint on site. Great food and such a warm welcome for us and our dog. They could not have done more to make us feel at home.

We were planning on stopping on the campsite for 2 nights.

Came in today (27/04) for a family lunch and we were lucky enough to have the chefs sole attention who entertained my young boy as well as cooking up a proper pub lunch from scratch.

Beautiful piping hot food, can’t go wrong, dogs welcome. Very friendly staff. Nice little camp site a back

Our group Xmas Lunch today was outstanding.Quality of food,service and friendliness second to none,thank you Paul,Diane,Wendy & Andria

My best friend brought me to Carriages as a surprise for my birthday recently. I had previously visited carriages for a drink and a chat with the owners and staff- every time I visit, I am made to feel welcome within a warm and friendly atmosphere.

I can’t truly express how amazing this place is, food, amazing, owners, amazing, staff, amazing, I’ve never had a bad experience here, everyone is friendly, welcoming, and the atmosphere is very warm and calm, and Paul the Owner/Chef, makes some of the best food I’ve ever eaten, and I’ve been all over the world, I had no idea some of the best food I would ever eat would be so close to home, make sure you treat yourself sometime and come to carriages and enjoy the experience.

We will remember this campsite and pub for a long time as we doubt we shall ever experience a friendlier welcome or kinder team of folk looking after the guests and campers. Thank you very much for a good August Bank Holiday weekend stay. Worth going back again for the Sticky Toffee Pudding alone! Fantastic. Many thanks.

We have a lovely stay here, we arrived in the Friday for the bank holiday weekend we stayed on the caravan side .We have had a great weekend the site was clean , toilets were clean and showers hot . We had Sunday lunch in the restaurant the food was lovely could not fault it at all they even made exceptions to my grandsons meals as they can be quite vocal on what they want . They even made exceptions in the puddings for my grandsons to and it was great value for money to . The waitress was lovely and couldn’t do enough for us. I spoke to the owners in the day we left saying our girls don’t come anyone and the boys get bored easily on journeys ,the owner did a lovely thing and came across with a game for the boys to do in the car Are we there yet this was a lovely and the boys loved it played it on the way home so as you can tell we have had a lovely weekend and will be returning

Just returned from our first visit and would highly recommend, perfect for a weekend getaway with great food, fabulously friendly hosts and staff and spotless camping facilities.....looking forward to our next visit soon where I will be tempted into trying those intelligent sausages you’ve been raving about!

An amazing friendly country pub, with thanks to Andrea, Tyler, Diane and Paul. Excellent food, very welcoming can’t wait until we visit again in August.

We have just spent 4 nights camping at Carriges and can't thank them enough. We had a nightmare 12 hour journey not getting there until almost midnight but to Diane and Paul this was not a problem, they did us pizza on arrival, cold drinks and then shone their car lights for us to pitch our tent in the dark. Outstanding service, always friendly, hope to see them same time next year.

We stayed at the carriages camp site for a long weekend 20th, 21st, 22nd July. After an awful journey, courtesy of the M6, we arrived to smiles and friendly staff. We pitched and headed straight to the pub for a meal and a pint.

No idea. The angry owner refused to serve us food and denied the children entry, did enjoy a cup of tea though from a lively waitress.

Diane and Paul are perfect hosts. Returned for another visit and their hospitality, warm and friendly welcome outstanding. The accommodation, food and service is excellent. Paul is an extremely talented and accomplished chef - the food made freshly and to order - the steak, melt in the mouth and cooked to perfection! Bed far too comfortable. They went out of their way to make me feel very welcome and, as a single lady traveler, this is so important. Thanks for the delicious packed lunch hamper - so thoughtful of you.

We visit often and the food is outstanding all made fresh and Paul and his staff are brilliant hosts thank you all

Went here for dinner for my Dad's birthday. Two of us had steak, asked for medium rare,vbut was very well done. When questioned it was told it was cooked properly at 68 degrees. 42 degrees is correct for medium rare. Anyway customer should always be right. Will never go again. Atmosphere was poor, no one else in the place.

I have been coming to carriages quite regularly for lunch as I’m a lorry driver who used the a41 frequently, the food is of some of the highest quality I’ve ever had and the Chef and owner Paul takes great pride in making sure you enjoy your meal to it’s fullest, the rest of the staff are very friendly, welcoming, and social, value for your money, portions are generous and of high quality so it’s a win win.

We were visiting the area and cycling in the wonderful lanes and had passed the Carriages earlier and thought it looked nice and with the A Board welcoming cyclist we were keen to investigate sometime.

Never been before. Very impressed as I visited with my son & daughter in law and tiny baby twins.

Just come back from a great stay at Carriages. The toilets and showers were spotless., but most importantly the welcome we had from the owners was fantastic, nothing was too much trouble for them, they were so friendly. The food was brilliant and our little boy couldn't even fit in dessert!! We will definitely be coming back. Thank you so much.

We went there to try the steaks because we had heard they were really nice. We waited 45 mins +. When the food eventually arrived and after being told there were no sauces available we were served what we thought were 2 medium rare rump steaks. We were in fact served an extremely well done steak and a rare steak. After sitting for a while we were asked how the meal was we told the waitress we were not too happy with what we had been served. The owner/chef came out to ask a few questions, I told him that it wasn't what we expected and asked if it could be discounted, he was extremely rude and took no accountability and took offence about the feedback we had given him after showing him the difference in the colour in the steaks we had been served. He eventually told us not to pay for it and told us to get out. We didn't have to pay for the meals, however when we left a friend of ours have told us that he said we were never welcome back at his restaurant and he said some not very nice things about us. I would recommend this restaurant to no one and after working there for 4 years when I was younger I was quite embarrassed to have taken her there.

Ive been to Carriages many times previously, but this was the first time id taken my girlfriend so was hoping everything would be up to it's usual standard. Thankfully, they didn't let me down. The food was excellent, as expected, and both Stacey and Paul were warm and friendly.

We went out for lunch at Carriages, and were extremely delighted with the food service and ambience /friendliness . There is a good selection of culinary delights and hot on arrival which is a big plus , nothing was a problem . As far as refreshments are concerned the bitter is refreshingly clear and tasty , and so to is the coffee which has a large variety of hot steamy beverages. So what s not to like , for a local hostelry that deserves all the credit due for the effort hat is affords its customers

Sunny Sunday afternoon lunch date, roast lamb and all the trimmings, very fresh and home cooked to perfection, roast lamb so tender and flavoursome, excellent portion control and filling, the staff are friendly and welcoming, and love the 2 pub doggies!!

My wife and I went here on Saturday for lunch. The menu was reasonably priced and the quality was excellent....

I am currently in the middle of my stay at The Carriages whilst in the area on business. I booked in on the campsite for 3 nights, hardstanding with electric. Upon arrival, late evening, I was met by the owner with the most warming of welcomes. I paid my bill for the stay & received a complimentary drink on the house. A fantastic well received gesture especially after a long day. I set up on site & used the shower facilities before turning in for the night. A well presented & maintained little toilet & shower block. Nice & clean with a good shower installed. Not your standard campsite facilities.

We stayed in our motorhome at Carriages last Friday and Saturday (13th and 14th October 2017). The campsite is very good and the spacious showers and toilets are clean and well kept with plenty of hot water - perfect for freshening up before going for dinner in the restaurant.

We stumbled on this place as it was near where we were staying and are so glad we did. As Australian travellers this is the quintessential English pub. Warm and inviting staff and a casual homely atmosphere. We ended up returning twice for the steak and ale pie, sticky toffee pudding and local beers. Best pie we’ve ever had (and we’ve had a few). Heading back there for one more meal before we fly out tomorrow!

Met friends in our motorhomes for the weekend. Great little camp site ( heating would be good in the showers) bar and restaurant very friendly. They do takeaway but treated ourselves in the restaurant. Home made steak pie really tasty . Proper Chips . ! Steaks very nice quality. Mid price just right and worth a visit.

I hate to be negative, but I took some new colleagues from our office today for lunch, the place was empty so we thought we would get very quick service. Being on a tight lunch hour the time past very quickly. No joking it took around 20 mins from ordering a pizza and jacket potato. The meal was spoilt due to having only 5 mins to eat our meal. A good distraction are their two dogs. The food was good hot and tasty . Needs to improve on getting the food out on time.

Fab food, friendly welcome and great service. Our room was large and had a nice view. Breakfast sumptuous and evening meal delicious. Mrs Diane Gregson very kindly took us in her car to the place we were going to as we didn't bring our car. This was a very generous gesture. A taxi was organised for us to return to Chester station. THANK YOU VERY MUCH

I recently made a provisional booking for a weekend in November to attend a family function. At that time wasn't sure of the dates. A few days later confirmed dates with family and phoned hotel to confirm my dates. A very blunt speaking person said "we are closed. Had a busy weekend with a car fest". My thought was why answer the phone then. I waited a couple of days and phoned again and asked for the female member of staff I had originally spoken to. I was told by the previous male person to phone back after 4 pm. As I was unable to I asked if he could deal with my enquiry and was told " no I am in the kitchen ". At that stage I decided not to stay at or use that establishment ever again. What a way to treat a customer. Hope he has a very successful business. But not with my money.

Visited here with some work colleagues for lunch this week. Our offices are in Tattenhall so pretty close. Have not been here for some years and was pleasantly surprised. We sat outside as it was lovely and sunny. The wicker garden furniture was a bit tatty and could do with replacing, but it's a great patio area with lovely views. Inside the restaurant is tastefully decorated and very pleasant. I ordered the steak pie, which was delicious - all our party enjoyed their food. The prices were also very reasonable.The young waiter serving us was very friendly and courteous . The lady owner (I'm guessing this) was also very friendly.We would definitely recommend and I'm sure we will visit again.

lovely afternoon at the ice cream farm then a lovely meal here, staff friendly and the owner paul was very friendly x we will visit again paul from Donna and julia aka the scousewives

Amazing breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea or dinner choices. Even at 7.30am breakfast choices were never too much to make sure my stay was very memorable.

I utterly loved my evening at the Carriages. The scenery is unreal and the staff/owners are very welcoming and friendly. They couldnt do enough for us. There is a great setting for summer fun with camping on offer. We will be returning very soon to take advantage of the self service BBQ. The food menu has alot of variety, quick service and great quality cut of meat! I would highly recommend this country pub for couples, familys and groups. Pet friendly and very reasonably priced. Thank you to the team for a great saturday evening.

On a difficult day for us Mum & I came for our first fathers day Sunday dinner after losing my dad. Yet again, a very warm welcome and perfectly cooked food. The vegetables are not your semi-raw cheffy nonsense but properly cooked through with just enough bite left. I felt impelled to take a photo of my totally clean plate to prove that,yet again, there was absolutely no fat to trim off the lamb! If this were the Eggheads and I was Jeremy Vine, I would be asking the question is it possible that anyone can beat them? The service with a smile and excellent food has helped us get through today with a smile - thank you!

I and about forty guests had a superb night at Carriages on the 18th March to celebrate my 60th birthday. Dianne and Paul the owners, the Chef and staff made the evening perfect and nothing was too much trouble. The food was excellent with perfect timing and the location and ambiance second to non. They did everything including decorating the tables. Even mum found her way about in her wheelchair. Thank you Dianne and Paul and all the staff at Carriages for making my special day perfect

We were on our way home from visiting Wales and were just driving past when we decided to stop and give it a try for some lunch. We were warmly welcomed by a lovely lady. We only ordered sandwiches and pots of tea, but we didn't wait too long and the food was all good when it arrived, nice and filling with good quality ingredients. The service was top notch and you couldn't ask for a friendlier lady.

Thank you Paul and Diane for the ease of booking and the most friendly welcome extended to my partner billy and I and my parents and sons and daughter when we arrived for a very special family get together as my middle son and family live in nearby tattenhall . We pitched our caravan on the well maintained campsite with great shower and toilet facilities whilst my parents and sons and daughter used the bed and breakfast facilities ... lovely spacious clean comfortable rooms with lovely en suite bathroom and my parents must have tea and coffee facilities in the room They had a beautiful breakfast and the service was excellent ... all in all this venue provided everything we could wish for in a very picturesque area close to our family get together .... highly recommend this place and can't wait to come back

Having relocated from abroad, new to Cheshire, my husband and I are keen to get out and explore the many wonderful pubs and restaurants. We have started close to home which we now call Tattenhall. It was a beautiful summer day's afternoon and a Friday and what better than to drive up the road to Carriages - the stunning Georgian house which rests in rambling grounds. Picnic tables scattered about the lawn, campers slowly enter the campsite with caravans and tents and Diane and Paul, a couple who clearly love hosting, come out, all smiles to meet them. It is a perfect haven at Carriages. The landlord and landlady, Diane and Paul are also well traveled and have spent the last two years putting Carriages, their B and B, pub, restaurant and campsite on the map, just outside Tattenhall. You could not wish for lovelier hosts. Friendly and welcoming shadowed by Millie and Summer, their two cocker spaniels they are not short of customers both local and from afar. My husband and I brought our three dogs who could freely stroll around the many lawns and roam safely.We sipped Prosecco in the sun and sampled the extensive and very varied menu. We began with four different starters:.chicken goujons, goats cheese and beetroot filo tarts, Stilton stuffed mushrooms and game Terrine. What a start! Excellent food. Service swift and friendly. Three hours later we stayed and sampled Paul's recommendation. I am a vegetarian so he recommended the vegetable bake with mashed baby new potatoes and salad. My husband was recommended the steak with chunky chips and salad. Both main courses were tasty. The puddings were to die for! I have had many sticky toffee puddings but this one is a must try! The chocolate delice was also a chocoholic's heaven! Feeling stuffed on really tasty, well presented good pub food we have no question or hesitation in telling everyone to get on down to Carriages. It was a beautiful afternoon and evening in the sun but equally families and couples were dining in the relaxed bar area and if you so wish for white linen table cloths dining there is a restaurant too! We will be ambling down for the Sunday lunch this afternoon not just for good food but because the hosts Paul and Diane are a great asset and addition to pubs in the area. You can't but want to chat with them.

Every year for the last twenty years, we as a group have been holidaying together for a long weekend. As it was our turn to organise the venue, we were somewhat apprehensive as we can never be sure it will meet with everyone's approval. IT DID!!Eight caravanners and four B & B visitors were more than happy with the facilities and food. Diane and Paul made us very welcome and Andrea added to the entertainment with our evening meals. So many thanks from us all x

We stayed at Carriages for one night while visiting Chester Zoo.Our Daughter, son-in-law and grand son were camping on Carriages ground and we met up to go to the zoo. we ate at the restaurant for an evening meal and drinks. good food and excellent value.Breakfast was full English and was also good, set us up for the day.They owners we very friendly and helpful. Also the room was huge and spotless

Booked on website & on arrival exceeded all expectations. Allocated substantial pitch for camper van & awning with electric hook up. Paul ensured we had everything we needed. Facilities more than adequate with nice hot showers & clean toilets. 8 of us ate here for Sunday lunch, food was outstanding & plentiful all served by the delightful Andrea who couldn't do enough for us. Diane & Paul were very sociable & even joined us for a drink at the end of our meal. They've got this just right, fab food, friendly staff, comfortable bar area & excellent camping facilities. Many thanks for your hospitality & a special thanks to Andrea for your rhubarb crumble, it was delicious. Looking forward to a return visit.

Looks lovely from the outside but the inside could do with an upgrade. The service however was excellent and the food was just great. Lots of the plates in our group were totally cleaned not because there wasn't enough but because it was so good. \the prices were very reasonable for the area. Strongly recommend unless you're looking for a sophisticated environment.

We went to Carriages for lunch today for the first time with five friends, and I am sure probably caused them problems when two of the party were unavoidably held up and arrived later than we had said. Nevertheless the food was delicious and the staff attentive and friendly. My liver and bacon in a gorgeous onion-y sauce, served with mashed potatoes and garden peas, was very simple but extremely filling and enjoyable. I have decided that I just haven't got room for any supper tonight... and you can't have a bigger compliment to the chef than that!

We were greeted immediately with the warmest of welcomes and they made such a fuss of our 3 year old girl. Nothing was too much trouble. Very reasonably priced and the food was presented, and tasted, amazing. What I loved most was they have a games cupboard - we sat playing cards while we enjoyed a drink and waited for our meal (which wasn't long at all) It was a nice change from us all just sat flicking on our phones.!! Will definitely be back next week and will be booking for a birthday next month. All in all a lovely pub with lovely food and lovely owners. Definitely worth a visit.

Last summer we visited the local Ice Cream Farm and called in here for a drink as it was a lovely summers day.We sat in the beer garden and chatted to the co-owner.Anyway,a couple of weeks ago we decided to call in again just for a drink with a view to booking an overnight stay in the future.The co-owner,with a fag in his hand,came rushing out explaining they were full and unable to serve us.There were two people in the beer garden! We found it unbelievable that they would turn away business.Anyway,we moved on to the Cheshire Cat in Christleton,where we had a lovely relaxing drink in THEIR beer garden which was extremely busy.We will never bother with this establishment again.Very unprofessional.

Carriages could not have got Mothers Day more right! After a warm welcome we were seated very comfortably in the lovely sunny lounge with drinks brought to us immediately. The establishment was clearly busy but we were not kept waiting long at all to be seated at our table where our food arrived quickly (particularly considering it is all cooked fresh to order!) As usual, the food was all delicious (I have to say that the combination of their home made chocolate delice with champagne sorbet and salted caramel sauce is a work of genius!) and all the staff on duty were attentive, friendly and very professional. There was a real sense of occasion at Carriages today, they really hit the right note and I cannot imagine a more pleasant setting for a celebration of this kind. Sincere thanks to everyone at Carriages for making Mothers Day so delightful for both the mums in our party!

We have just returned from a lovely 4 day break staying at Carriages campsite in our motorhome. We ate in the pub every day. The food is fantastic, homemade, beautifully cooked & served with a flourish by Andrea. Paul was very welcoming, remembered the wine we liked & made sure we settled in happily. The dogs were welcomed too & had the run of a field next to our spacious pitch. There are showers/ toilets, clean & free. All in all a super place with everything we needed & a lovely welcome from owners & staff alike. We will be going back. Thank you Carriages.

The service we received today at this restaurant was excellent My husband and I both had Sunday lunch it was presented very well and the waitress service was second to none We will definitely be returning

Popped in on the off-chance for a spot of lunch. Very tasty and hot chill with welcome salad. Coffee​ very good too.

Had a lovely family meal here, it was organised at short notice but Carriages fitted the 12 of us in. From the minute we stepped through the door to when we left we were all looked after very well. The staff were so helpful and couldn't do enough for us, even taking time to set the kids up with toys and crayons and prepare a doggy bag for the dog. The meals were really tasty, my fish and chips were delicious. Many Thanks for looking after us so well we had a lovely time, we will definitely be back.

We popped in mid saturday for some late lunch. I ordered a pizza and my wife had a baked potato. My pizza was absolutely delicious and you could literally taste the freshness all of the ingredients. The staff there were all incredibly friendly and had plenty of time for us. Great value, lovely food, lovely venue and friendly staff. Also good beer! I will definitely go here again!

Can't thank Diane, Paul and their team enough!! Fabulous afternoon they made sure we were all very well looked after. Finger buffet was amazing.Will definitely be going for a meal.

Wonderful welcome, service and food excellent. However .... I like dogs ...... but not wandering around my legs when I am eating, they really have no place where people are eating. Really sorry to say this but a lovely evening was spoilt by this.

Let me start by saying that this place was (on the whole) not bad. Yes, the décor is in need of updating and no, the food is not cutting edge in any way but it represents good value for a 70's style pub-grub place. If they had spent as much attention to the offering as they clearly have to the website, this place would be a winner. We booked solely on the basis of the website which gives an altogether different image of what will be on offer and if what we got resembled this in ANY way, I would be giving the place rave reviews. My experience was, as I imagine, like looking at a brochure for a Range Rover and ordering the same. However, on the day you go to collect the shining 4X4, the salesman tosses you the keys to a 20 year old Diahatsu 4 Trak. Both of which are great vehicles but somewhat different in style.

My wife and I went here for a Valentine's meal. The whole experience was excellent. Our food was cooked to perfection. We had fish cakes for a starter and then beef wellington as a main course What makes this place special is not just the food though it's the friendliness of Paul and Diane who make this place stand out. There is nowhere quite like it anywhere.

Just had the BEST pizzas ever from Carrages. Very tasty plenty of topping and piping hot and best of all home made by Gary their wonderful chef. Have had the chippy tea equally nice and the chips are amazing. Excellent menu and theme evenings,quiz nights and the pudding club. Many Thanks we will be back soon. Tracy

Warmly welcomed, superb service and very tasty food in front of a roaring fire on a cold winters day. Highly recommended!

We have just returned from amazing christmas dinner at the Carriages. A big thank you to Diane, Paul and all the staff (especially Andrea) who all made us very welcome, we just felt that we were at home but without all the hassle.A VERY HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU ALL.Graham and Doreen Parkin

DECEMBER 15 th.I took my CAMEO group of 50 people for Christmas lunch.We all hadan excellent lunch,served smiling by Andrea,Sue & Diane.It was a lovely afternoon.A hugethank you to all at Carriages.

Went early (5 ish) on a Friday, recommended by friends. The welcome is great and the service excellent. We were the only ones there for at least an hour, but the standard of food was excellent! May come back sometime and stay on the campsite! Not too sure about the dogs wandering about the restaurant though...we found it a bit off-putting....but I'm sure dog-lovers will think we are daft!

Called here on a tues lunch time , we had the two course meal for £9.95 with was excellent value , we had cauliflower & chestnut soup which was 1 of the best soups I have ever tasted . Then I had haddock , chips & peas with tarter sauce ,& mum had gammon , chips & peas with pineapple ring , it was delicious all of it & was quickly eaten up , the guy who served us was very pleasant & friendly & was 2 lovely spaniel dogs in there to minding there on business ,so cute , mum left her glasses on the table & he came out to the car with them for us , would recommend this place & will definitely go back again .

We stayed on the campsite for one night and went into the bar for a meal before the fireworks (free firework display which was great). Both myself and my husband had a starter and a mean course. The starters were lovely and the mains were even better. I had the fish and chips and my husband had the mixed grill. The fish was lovely and fresh and the mix grill was a cracking size which even filled my husband up, which believe me is usually a task and a half. The ladies serving the food were lovely and friendly, the whole bar area just seemed to be a really nice local bar that also made visitors feel welcome. They were selling burgers and hot dogs before the fireworks, I just wish I had enough room to have one. Would definitely visit again.

We've been to Carriages a few times for lunch with family. It's always a treat for all of us and we look forward going back each time.Great food and wonderful hospitality. We'll be back!

We stayed over night on the campsite and went in to the restraunt for tea. Staff lovely and friendly and food was great. Staff asked if kids wanted to be fed first which was idealas they where all hungry and that gave us time to eat ours in peace. Would highly recommend this BNB and restaurant to others
