Cornichon in Cheshire West and Chester

Wow! My friend regularly goes to Cornichon and her family always choose it as their go-to place to celebrate a birthday, and after having visited last weekend I can see why! I was so impressed with the menu/choice, the staff were great, and the food was outstanding! Good quality, beautifully presented, decent portion sizes and prices really reasonable! My friend was even able to order a take out portion of Mac & cheese to take back for her son. Had such a great girls lunch here. Couldn’t fault a thing and will be back soon :-)

The best restaurant this side of Chester, by a long long way too

Always a pleasurable experience at Cornichon, great food and warm and friendly service.

Food was amazing, as always. Gorgeous salad starter then sea bass and risotto from the specials board. All the staff are lovely and it always feels special when we visit. Will definitely return.

Recommended to us by Covino in Chester, well worth a visit, great food and great staff.

3rd time visiting and it is always fantastic. Good service, delicious food (the specials of lamb ragu & fishcakes were perfect) & well made cocktails. This really is a gem of a place. Great for a dinner with friends, a date, or special occasion. Will be back!

We had a delicious lunch, everything tasted lovely. The restaurant is in a lovely space, attentive and considered service. Highly recommend!

Great experience, with the highlight being the Sunday Beef Roast which was cooked perfectly

Very busy bistro restaurant . Cosy booths and a good choice of food and drink . Good size car park .

A thoroughly enjoyable Sunday lunch. A lovely building and great food with super servoice. Very good.

Amazing food, great service. Cocktails were awesome too. Fantastic little restaurant 😄

Such a good little restaurant. Had brunch here a few times and never been disappointed. Lovely food, but what makes if great is the staff. Very attentive and always friendly

Roast dinner was delicious. Beef cooked to perfection 🥰

Always come for birthdays and special milestones as this place never disappoints and always feels worthwhile. Have been coming for over 5 years and not had one bad meal.

Great spot for 11 of us on a post-hen do brunch. We had a great big table upstairs and all of the food was to die for! A properly great bunch and an absolute bargain too. Thank you so much - we'll be back again for sure!

Lovely late breakfast. Great latte too

I’ve been into Cornichon many times for breakfast. Really delicious. 👌

Excellent Sunday lunch and superb service

What a fab restaurant. Such a lovely atmosphere and the food and service were wonderful. Staff cheerie and helpful lots of smiles. Definitely recommend and we will be back again soon. We had the veggie Sunday lunch.

The Cornichon is a fantastic restaurant with high quality food and wine. The atmosphere is cosy and the acoustics are brilliant. The service is really friendly. Really great place for an intimate evening with family, your partner or friends!

Got to catch up with family over a nice birthday dinner. They gave us seating upstairs where it was cozy and quiet enough to easily hear each other. Beetroot app was tasty, wife loved the gnocchi, my burger was OK, my sticky toffee pudding was excellent!

Another lovely lunch here. Decided to risk the roast beetroot and whipped blue cheese. Sensational!

Lovely bistro oozing character in centre of Tarvin. We dinned on New Year's Eve. It was our first visit. The team impressed from the start. Their website did not have any availability from New Year's eve so I phoned on the off chance; the lady I spoke to on the phone was friendly and professional and was able to move tables around to accommodate us. Food is certainly up there with the best gastro pubs in the area. Atmosphere and character of the venue definitely sets it apart.

Lovely setting, great staff and an amazing breakfast. Brilliant with the children too

The best Sunday Roast I’ve ever eaten out!

First time visiting the village. We absolutely loved it this restaurant. Lovely setting and good food. Looking forward to visiting again.

Great meal celebrating Angela's birthday... thanks everyone at the Cornichon 😀

Best bar and restaurant for miles 👏

Lovely atmosphere, staff very nice indeed and the food was delicious.. Great menu.

Popped in to have a quick drink at 8.50pm, bar was busy with customers drinking, some with pints to finish and bottles of wine to be told the bar was closed , very disappointed!! Can’t understand that, restaurant was busy also !

Amazing Sunday lunch experience.

Just EPIC!!! Best roast near chester. Can't recommend the chicken burger enough.

Give it a try they'll look after you.

Just a wonderful place to eat. The atmosphere is lovely

Great atmosphere backed up with decent food and service

Really nice atmosphere and good staff. Nice food, recommend

Smart local eatery, always well cooked food and pleasant service. Only minor complaint is the menu is quite small and gets a bit limited if you go often.

Lovely local restaurant with consistent quality but the menu never changes

Great food and lovely atmosphere

Old butchers shop turned into restaurant with friendly staff and great food, another visit is on the cards, definitely recommend.

We enjoyed our time here. Food cooked well. The kids menu was a little dated, everything came with chips. It would be nice for restaurants to realise that not all kids want deep fried fatty food. Overall it was a little on the pricey side. £9.50 for some very small chicken wings - you can get around 5 kilos of wings for £10. so great business model but not good value for the diner.

fabulous evening. delicious food, great service, nothing too much trouble... will definitely return

A lovely meal with family before moving on to an evening wedding reception. Those of us who had the Chicken Brurgers gave it 10/10.....my grandson said best burger he's ever had !! The fish burger my hubby had was delicious too .... Thanks to all the staff 👌👌

French style cafe with bar. Very friendly and efficient service. We were passing on a cycle tour and just needed a rest and a drink. They were happy to serve us coffee at the bar. We noticed a very interesting menu and ended up having starters, which were excellent.

Excellent as always, first class handmade burgers, wings so good that you’ll definitely want to lick your fingers and smiling staff to help roll you out of the door after you’ve overeaten some really good quality food :)

A lovely warm Bistro, good service and good food.

I enjoy stopping by for a coffee! ☕️ Great atmosphere, food and the owners are really friendly. 🙂

Fantastic Sunday lunch, cooked to perfection and the cauliflower cheese was just delicious 😋 service was great and staff very friendly

Fantastic restaurant and staff. My wife and I made an impromptu visit for a coffee but such was the welcoming atmosphere we stayed a while longer and enjoyed a fantastic breakfast. We live in a neighbouring village and didn't realise how lucky we are having this gem on our doorstep. Will be back with friends.

Best restaurant in Cheshire, delicious food always! Can’t fault it and I recommend to everyone.

Lovely brunch. Great food and good service.

Absolutely excellent Sunday lunch on NY day. Lisa was able to fit us in at short notice which was much appreciated. Staff and all meals were excellent, cannot be faulted 10/10 👏 Lovely atmosphere in restaurant too. Can highly recommend 😊

Main meal Falafel Burger was very dry. The service was good.

We got salt beef sandwiches and mince pies at the Tarvin Christmas Market night. Certainly worth the wait.

An absolutely fabulous roast rump of beef - excellent work guys.

Bit lifeless. Staff rather dull

Unbelievable food, great beers. You can’t go wrong. Sunday roasts are the best in Cheshire, hands-down!

Excellent food, nice period building and friendly staff

Wonderful place for the traveller,nice cup of tea served as a special compliment to leafed tea in a clear glass pot with filter,China milk urn and warm cup and saucer.Disappointed by the sugar in satchets.With as much attention to detail as this for a cup of tea,you can only imagine how the food is presented,well done.

Stopped for a break from cycling - staff super friendly & helpful but onion soup was dire along with a stale bread roll...Americano coffee and the above came to £10.50! Don't mind paying for quality but.....???!!!!!

Amazing little restaurant, fantastic staff, great menu, really good prices and the food was delicious. Will be back for sure

Great food and service. They never let down.

On a very hot Friday evening, couldn’t be bothered cooking, so to the Cornishon we go, letting Ben & his team take the strain in the kitchen. Meanwhile in the restaurant we were looked after brilliantly. Fantastic food, marvellous service, all round great experience. As indeed it always is here.

This place is amazing! The quality of the food and value for money is brilliant. Quality: 5/5 Portion: 5/5 Price: 5/5 Staff: 5/5 Can’t wait to go back!!!

All you can want from a restaurant, excellent service,great staff and superb food ( the French onion soup starter and brownie dessert were both highlights for me) . Very easy to recommend.

Had a wonderful meal hear on Saturday evening. The steak was amazing Service was excellent. We definitely recommend.

Fantastic food and excellent customer service at this bistro / resteraunt / bar. This is one of our new favourite places. Great selection on the menu with a few vegetarian options. Lovely drinks menu with locally sourced Wheatley gin. The chef also makes his own sourdough bread which is outstanding. Nice cosy atmosphere. Bathrooms are on the 1st floor. Limited parking outside. Lovely village location.

Exceptional Service Amazing Food Thumbs Up

Enjoyed every minute of our meal at Cornichon tonight. The service, food, drinks and aesthetics were all 10/10. Not just a great meal but a great experience.

A great meal. Lovely place. Definitely going back.

Did so much right but handled feedback (which was requested by a waitress) about lack of advertised ingredients in a meal terribly. Shame. Would have been 4+ otherwise

What a little gem, we had a fantastic meal here, I would strongly recommend this restaurant

Very welcoming and friendly staff. Food, especially the flat iron steak, was excellent. Couldn't fault a thing and look forward to returning very soon.

Lived in the village all my life and this was the first time we have visited the restaurant, and we had a brilliant time. The service was excellent, the quality of the food was to a very high quality and we didn't feel rushed. The options were varied and it was a hard decision what to choose, as all the dishes were appetising. Definitely go back, thank you for a brilliant meal and a great evening.

Took my mum for a treat, lunch on sat. Good food, friendly staff. Little pricey but quality of food justifies the cost. Would recommend overall.

Fantastic place in Tarvin. Have been for Sunday lunch a couple of times. The service is very personable and great atmosphere. They have an upstairs area you can book for larger groups. Quality food and very reasonable.

Great place for lunch, great for kids too. Nice separate bar area and private room upstairs. Food and drinks were great

Great food and friendly staff ...

Frontage doesn't say what it's selling

Absolutely outstanding from start to finish. Food was incredible! cooked to perfection with professional service. Lovely atmosphere

Excellent service & food was beautiful! The ambience of this place is so lovely and chilled! Will definitely be returning!

Great Sunday lunch and lovely staff, will be definitely be back

Excellent meal and friendly service on a Sunday. Looking forward to going back through the week and trying the rest of the menu

Visited for a takeaway breakfast & coffee. Very good quality & great service. Looking forward to dining in at some point.

Lovely restaurant,delicious food.

Lovely atmosphere and excellent service. Food was generally good although the chicken was a little dry. I wouldn't suggest ordering the cheese and biscuits as I was only given two tiny pieces of cheese which didn't seem worth the money.

Delicious food in the coolest place. Wish I lived locally

Excellent meal! Lovely cozy atmosphere and super friendly staff. The lamb was 👌🏻

I really enjoyed my Sunday lunch at the Cornichon. The beef was perfectly pink for me, however, others in our party would probably not have ordered had they known it was served so rare. Maybe a note on the menu would have helped. Anyway, really good service, food, beer and wine and environment. Easily deserves a 5 star if not for the pink beef that was leftover and everything being served a tad lukewarm.

First time visitor despite it being 10 minutes from anywhere I’ve lived. Absolutely blown away to be honest. The gaff was really nicely done out, the staff were incredibly considerate of the plague which I liked and were super helpful, polite and welcoming in general. The food was incredible, really enjoyed it. I’d of happily paid twice what it actually cost so value for money was ten ten. I’ve recommended it to everyone in the last 3 days it’s that good. Will definitely be visiting again! Thanks you ruddy legends.

Great Sunday Roast, Great Service, Great Beers, Highly Recommended 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Brilliant. Staff are great and wine is exceptional. The decor is lovely and welcoming.

Beat Sunday lunch, loved every mouthful.

A fantastic gem ot a place, so glad we cam across it today. It was literally 5 minutes off our route back from NW Wales and well worth the slight detour, in fact we'll worth a long detour. The reviews were spot on, we read so decided to add one as well. The first impressions of the place are that it is going to be a good experience, the staff were friendly, attentive and on the ball, the 3 course Sunday Lunch we had was perfect, each course was full of flavour and wonderful tastes.

Great service. Food great. No issues. Relaxed atmosphere. Spotless.

Gorgeous place. Very stylish decor. Lovely thoughtful service. Clearly a place where the team think to preempt the customer’s needs. Will definitely come back.

Food was absolutely amazing, will definitely be returning

Staff very friendly and helpful looking forward to returning soon

Time and time again this place exceeds my expectations when it comes to a sit down menu! One of the nicest places for a quiet meal and a few casual drinks! The staff are lovely and really know how to look after you! 👏

My husband and I have just visited for the first time , and we where not disappointed , lovely inside and the food was excellent, we both had the French onion soup to start and the steak and fries for a main, service was excellent from the lovely waitress , we will certainly return and recommend to friends and family . It’s a hidden gem
