De Jour Bar & Kitchen in Cheshire East

I recently attended a wedding reception hosted by De Jour. The food was some of the best I have ever tasted, it really blew me away! I wod have happily gone straight back for breakfast the next day if I could have.

What a fantastic meal we all had on Friday evening. Small platters were bigger than tapas but perfect to combine several dishes. Three per person is about right and the menu was helpfully split across meat, fish and veggie, so we balanced it out. We had to share a dessert as we were rather full! Nice creme brulee! We couldn't fault anything we tried, with eight of us trying just about everything. The service was friendly and attentive and we look forward to our next visit!

They had just changed their menu- although the website didn’t reflect this change. Only served ‘small plates’ at an extortionate price £9 for 4 garlic prawns! £8 for a few slices of tomato a bit of mozzarella and the tiniest basil leaf-shocking! The fried cod balls were good but very poor value at £10 for 3. We were the only people in on a Thursday night. No real atmosphere. £27 for a bog standard bottle of Sauvignon was steep as well. Don’t mind paying for good food, but this was poor value, nothing special in terms of taste and dead! Won’t be going again

Booked an early table (6-30) Saturday. Food was really good - beetroot/goats cheese starter and chicken supreme, glass of Merlot very pleasant, service friendly. Sadly we were the only diners in for the whole meal..hard to understand why not more people in there - although it was early. It was quite cold in the restaurant - with soaring energy prices I can understand why many shops, restaurants turn down/off their heating. Certainly worth making a visit for dinner and I'm sure a few more diners would warm the place up too.

Ate here with my partner last night. The food was excellent. Really, really enjoyed my food as did he. However, something quite ridiculous happened. We ordered a bottle of wine. As the young waiter brought it to our table my partner noticed it didn’t look quite full, he watched the waiter pour our two glasses then picked up the bottle and showed the waiter it had less than a third left. The waiter denied it, went bright red and then agreed to bring another bottle. We asked him to open it at the table while we watched (incidentally, this should always happen). He poured two glasses again and surprise, surprise there was way more than a third of a bottle left. This sort of practice makes me so angry, please don’t take your customers for fools.

Pre-theatre meal with friends. Lovely 2 course well priced menu. I tried to replicate one of the delicious dishes and failed hopelessly so need to go back. Great service. Would be good to see more people in there - they’re missing a treat

The service food and table was fabulous all round !!! Highly recommend it for any one to go too for dinner with family or friends

Meal out with friends, the food to be fair was tasty, well cooked and presented however front of house and general professionalism left a lot to be desired, in a difficult time for hospitality this was not quite good enough especially with so much local competition, good food alone is not enough.

My cat died yesterday and the weather was overcast 5 stars would definitely come back even though I never came in

I used to love this restaurant when you could get a proper starter and main course - but disappointed with the tapas style dishes now. Small portions of all the same thing. I also missed the Ciabatta you used to get with the garlic prawns - now just mediocre french bread. The Creme Brulee was amazing though.

Had a great meal last night at De Jour. I have been meaning to visit but the old menu was not exciting but the small plates were amazing, lots of tasty food and a jig of sangria to wash it down. Highly recommend a visit, it was very quiet on our visit which was a shame. The staff were so lovely too

We all had such a wonderful time! Rob and team were brilliant throughout. From preparing our menu from our preferences, to planning the seating, background music and ensuring everybody’s plates were full and glasses replenished! 🥂. The happy couple and guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves... especially when the sun came out for our ‘mingling hour’ on the back terrace! Thanks again Rob and team! 👍

It was great to come back here after the relaxing of the Covid restrictions and a joy that the two young guys who run it have continued to keep going when several decent restaurants in the town have folded. The food was delicious, a very generous portion of whitebait followed by beer battered hake - the batter was superb, almost transparent and not at all greasy. My son had delicious Thai style chicken thighs (again very generous) with first class chips. A most enjoyable visit and we'll be back soon

Came to try the new menu on Saturday 22nd, as I expected perfection was achieved again by this classy establishment. I particularly enjoyed the steak (a very popular cut among french butchers who know what they’re on about) and at 15 pound I felt like I was robbing the restaurant. The mojo verde paired well, a little nod to South American cooking. Like everything at de Jour simple yet clever and perfectly executed. I also had the prawns which I have every time because they’re fantastic and locally sourced from the fish monger around the corner. You can’t beat 5 large king prawns for just 9 quid most other restaurants would charge at least 11.50 minimum. The smoked ribs and chicken thighs are cracking too all cured and smoked in house it’s very hard to find this quality and attention to detail around here so I’m grateful to have such a high end reasonably priced restaurant in my home town.

Went for a Saturday afternoon treat and was really pleased with the quality of the food. The Hake was sublime, salad, chicken thighs and fries were all really well seasoned. This was our first visit to eat and would definitely recommend. They also keep a really nice Peroni for the lager drinkers.

Sadly disappointing. We checked the website before visiting so were expecting a la carte menu plus small plates to choose from. I asked about this when only the small plates menu was given and the waitress didn’t understand what an a la carte menu was....

I have only visited twice for drinks alcohol & coffee and the small plates cakes etc. The service is great and very friendly, I would recommend. My friend is a regular who has eaten here many times. Nice porn star martinis plus many other cocktails...

Large restaurant with a bar, beer garden and upstairs dining room. Reasonably priced food with a limited menu, but enough of a choice for dinner etc. Dining room is a bit cold and industrial canteen style for me. Could do with some softening up and...

Honestly the best food I've ever had in macclesfield!!! It is absolutely worth every penny for the quality of food and service you receive! Please pass our thanks on to Rob on front of house, nothing was too much to ask for and Sam&Dan in...

If you’re all about the food and drinks then this is a place for you. With an extremely friendly vibe, modest pricing and excellent food, De Jour really is pure gold. With no bells and whistles, it’s simplicity and comfort is a real attraction (as...

I brought my friend here for Bottomless Brunch which I thought was really good value for money. We both had avocado and egg on toast which was beautifully done. We asked the staff if they could “keep up with us” as it was my friends...

I have visited this place on multiple occasions now and we have never been let down! The food and service is what only can be described as exceptional. When you arrive you are greeted by a great team who engage with you and take you...

Having been a few more times for brunch and a la carte since lock down ended I can confirm that de Jour is the place to be. My first bottomless brunch visit (early September) was fantastic, great eggs benedict with the best hollandaise sauce I’ve...

Fantastic dinner to celebrate my Father in Law’s 80th. Food was excellent. Rob and Sam really looked after us. I’ve been a number of times and the food is consistently excellent. It was really buzzing last night, so word is getting round!!

Looking for somewhere new to try for a hearty full English and this place did not disappoint. No issue with asking for eggs to be scrambled rather than fried, or my son swapping his mushroom & black pudding for extra sausage and bacon. I had...

Had a few hours down time in Macclesfield and discovered this place Had a nice cold glass of wine and a tuna melt pannini with a cool glass of chardonnay sitting in their lovely outside courtyard Will be visiting again for sure Just opposite the...

Visited for a post lockdown night out with friends, welcome was great, food was delicious, service excellent, what more could you want! I would highly recommend, businesses like this need our support!

Had visited in December and was looking forward to a return visit - we were not disappointed' The food is excellent, all fresh (they don't even have a freezer) and perfectly cooked. The menu changes every two or three weeks always with a great selection...

Everything I had was delicious. I especially enjoyed the nicely cooked steak. I found the staff helpful and friendly. I would definitely eat there again.

Ate here in December. The food was excellent and great value - two courses for £20.00! An excellent bottle of wine too. We will be returning soon.

The food here is interesting and very well cooked. The only problem for us was that we were the only ones in on a Friday evening so no atmosphere. I would recommend this place so give it a go. It won’t break your bank and...

I booked this restaurant as a table of 3 and am the third member of the party, two of whom have written negative reviews below. My meal was nice enough (two of our party had the same), one member of our party’s was not. We...

My friend and I went for a girly evening, we are both foodies so I wanted to take her to De Jour as I'd been before and loved it. I ordered the Salmon fillet which was served (by the owners recommendation) medium - it was...

We visited early in the evening to accommodate my young daughter who was joining us to celebrate a family birthday. Reading the two previous reviews I was concerned but I should have disregarded these completely and please don’t let them put you off. If you...

This was the second time we have visited in the last four weeks. We wanted to see if the first superb meal was beginners luck! It wasn't. The second meal was just as good. Everything beautifully cooked and served with attentive but not annoying service....

Visited on Saturday night and WE WERE THE ONLY PEOPLE IN THE PLACE. It's not hard to see why. Starters were OK - duck terrine was served with one piece of dried out toast, mackeral pate, tiny portion, was only given a tiny piece of...

I cannot believe how disappointed I was! On a Saturday night, a restaurant like this should be buzzing. But, alas, we were the only people in the place. To be fair, my main was nice. What I cannot get over is how my friend was...

Our first time here but definitely not our last. Menu is simple 3 choices of starter, main and pud with a few side dishes. Excellent vegetarian options and the meat options are absolutely delicious. Service is really good and overall, given the quality of the...

Didn’t know this place existed until it popped up on my Instagram feed. Tried it out for Saturday date night and the food was divine! Only three choices on each course - meat fish veggie, which changes fortnightly. Everything was top notch including the triple...

Best restaurant in Macclesfield by a mile. Exceptional service from arrival till finish, we were greeted to cocktails in the bar before being taken to our table upstairs in the fabulous dining room. We had heard the food here is always delightful and the menu...

First of all I’d like to say the waitress was lovely and her service and attention deserves 5 stars. However, the menu is very limited and for this we would expect quality to be exceptional. The food was tasty but nothing I couldn’t cook at...

I went with friends to try out this fairly new restaurant and had a lovely meal. The menu is limited (one meat, one fish and one vegetarian). For mains, I had the steak, wihich was beautifully cooked, flavoursome and tender. The waitress was friendly and...

Been here tonight, pleasant staff good service and couldn't fault the food! Limited choice on menu but I don't mind that as they did it well. The menu changes every couple of weeks I think. Love the fact that once u have eaten you can...

We had the Burrata starter and the smoked salmon. Both enjoyable. The main course of steak with green beans was let down by undercooked vegetables which we brought to the attention of the waiting on staff. Cauliflower main course was enhanced by a lovely tomato...
