Dysart Arms in Cheshire East - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

If you are looking for the perfect quintessential English pub that really delivers then make your way to the Dysart Arms!!. Perfect location in this small but beautiful village, plenty of garden tables overlooking a beautifully maintained English garden of flowers and surrounding fields, Lovely selection of beers and check out the Beer Fest end of July!. Quality wine etc and a perfect Sunday roast!, the beef was amazing, compliments to the chefs!!. The service staff were friendly and very efficient from the moment we entered the bar and the food orders taken and delivered perfectly. I even made an effort and wore my Chinos and proper shoes on a very hot Sunday afternoon because this place looks amazing but to be honest although I was happy to make the effort the place is super relaxed, wish it was my local!!. Actually the beer and wine prices were brilliant compared to many ordinary pubs!. The stylish interior decor and furnishings compliment this wonderful old building so well. There are many tables to cater for couples and larger groups but if the weather is not great and you are looking to eat then book a table in advance, it was very busy and many eating outside. Anyway, spoil yourself and try the Dysart, well done to the owners as well!!. As Arnie says, I'll be back!

A typical Cheshire pub, cosy, warm and friendly. Delightful beer garden, good beers on tap and good pub food with typical fare.

We've just had a gorgeous Sunday roast here! Beautiful village setting opposite the church, the restaurant area overlooking the lovely gardens. Warm meet and greet and attentive, friendly service. The roast pork was lovely, complete with all the trimmings, nice, ambient atmosphere. It's been a long time since I've enjoyed a Sunday lunch experience like this one. Recommended!

Family meal for 11 (6 adults, 5 children). Good service and nice facilities with play area outside enjoyed by the kids (aged 7-12). Food was good , will probably go back there

We arrive from pretty much all over the uk, once a year, to remember our friend who passed away suddenly a few years ago. He is buried in the church round the corner from the Dysart Arms, so we always book the pub for a meal and a few drinks. The staff at the pub are great. They can’t do enough for us and our kids. Great setting. Great menu, cooked superbly by the kitchen staff. Great choice of ales.

My wife and friend went today to celebrate their up and coming 60th birthdays. They were looked after by a lovely lady, from the North east I think by her accent. They were looked after superbly and really good banter in a professional manner with her . That goes along way to make the experience fantastic and lacking in a lot of places, obviously they judge each client individually and see how they like to be treated. As always they said the food was superb and my wife is gluten free which you have so much on your menu plus gluten free ales Thanks for making it a special day. Regards Neil Fallows

Arrived for a pre-booked lunch. Food was really top quality. We all enjoyed. The service was excellent and we all agreed that it was a place that we will return to. Thank you so much.

We had a couple of good, new to us, lagers. Lunch was excellent – a chicken schnitzel (which I think was the winner) and a lamb pie. The pie would have been nicer with pieces of meat rather than shredded bits. The pastry could have been lighter. The vegetables were excellent. Great service.

Excellent food, our dogs had a clean bowl of water and dog treats on the table. We had bottle of water on the table. Service great, very relaxed atmosphere. Certainly going again soon.

Went for lunch today for my husbands birthday . ( we have been a number of times). Food, staff, ambiance, everything was excellent. The food was piping hot and delicious. Beautiful location. I would recommend the Dysart Arms anytime. Love this place.

Visited here with parents whilst I was over from New Zealand. Service was very slow (it wasn'tthat busy). There were 3 of us, order placed at the bar as requested. Waited ages for food, a party of 4 arrived after us, got their food before us. It was only when I chased up the missing food order that it was bought out to us! My chips were not hot and burger was overdone. Will not be rushing back here, shame as it's a lovely looking pub in a quaint little village.

This is a must try for food. We had very nice dinner, friendly staff, dog friendly pub. Quantity and quality very good. 10/10 from me.

The Dysart Arms is in a small, picturesque village full of character. We went for Sunday lunch and it was an extremely enjoyable visit. The room had lovely views over the church and countryside and the food was excellent. Most importantly, all the people working there were friendly and helpful - the service really was second to none. I only wish it was my local.

What a gorgeous place! Loved every part of our experience. Beautiful pub, with wonderful layout. Welcoming, lovely staff and excellent food. Really cannot fault at all and would highly recommend to anyone.

Something has changed since our last visit - it's always good, but this visit was outstanding. The food has gone up a notch and was the best we had had in ages. All the food was so good, the staff were great, lovely atmosphere, could not fault it. And the Christmas menu looks great too. Now our favourite B&P pub by far. Will be back very soon, thank you for a lovely evening. Dreaming of that bao bun.

Perfect every time! The staff are friendly, the service is always superb but a special mention has to go to the chefs! The food is incredible!!! Every single time! They vary the menu seasonally and it is always absolutely delicious! Well worth choosing one of the more ‘expensive’ dishes on the menu although everything is very reasonably priced. Such a cosy place to grab a drink round the bar and settle in for the evening! Thank you to all the staff- we love it here!

We were 22 people for lunch having pre ordered the meals and everybody commented on the outstanding quality of food and service. For me, special mention should be given to the chef who delivered the quality and organised the serving of the main courses together and were hot and delicious - thank you.

My Husband and I went for Sunday Lunch we both had the roast pork. Delicious. Service was excellent and our meals arrived quickly. My Husband had raspberry sponge with custard and I had pina colada sundae for desserts we really enjoyed them. Our table was in the "library"it had a lovely atmosphere. Would highly recommend the Dysart Arms.

Met here for a lunch with some workmates. Really good food from the light bites menu and everything was presented very nicely and tasted great. I had the bacon and Brie ciabatta and it was one of the best I’ve ever had. Service was also excellent and very quick. Pub is very characterful and in a great location. It was my first time here but I’ll definitely be back soon.

Been here a few time recently and happy to say they seem to have really upped their game in terms of the food and service, since I left my previous review I have been reluctant to give them another go but - very good to see it getting back on track, not quite full marks based on value - happy to pay the prices but the quality of the food does not quite warrant it. Old review….. “I live in the village, want and try to support this pub but it’s terrible -been three times recently and can’t work out why it’s so lacking compared to other pubs in the chain - it’s a local consensus I’m afraid.”

Booked for lunch and was immediately impressed on entering the premises, a quintessential English village pub. Was shown to a table which, albeit a warm sunny day, was positioned in a cool draught. On mentioning this to the staff we were, without hesitation, shown to a different, more comfortable position - excellent customer service. When the food arrived, both meals were delicious as were the 2 desserts that followed complimented by a refreshing pint of the OurHouse beer. A fabulous meal in a gorgeous pub in the most delightful village setting

Visited to have Sunday lunch. Very disappointing, one course very expensive comes out all plated virtually no vegetables sorry one carrot and a bit of cabbage, beef not tender lots of hard roast potatoes and a big Yorkshire pudding and very little gravy. Certainly not value for money and I suppose it is what you get when restaurants are part of a chain. Will not be going back and would not recommend.

Welcoming, dog friendly pub. We visited with friends - 2 dogs and little boy. Staff were fab - provided water and biscuits for the dogs and were v attentive. Great food and service. Thank you ❤️

We went today for my dad's 95th birthday and the first time he has been out since covid. A fantastic welcome and we could choose where to sit which was nice. The lady who served was so polite had a nice bit of banter with her which is always good and makes it more enjoyable. The food was superb all fresh and seasonal. We had chilli beef and the deep fried Brie for starters followed by the gluten free lamb hot pot pie and fishcakes. The sweet was lemon cheesecake with raspberry sorbet and again to die for , the wife had the coffee option with a smaller sweet Thanks so much everyone it was superb.

Second visit here, first as a pre kids party of 2, second as a family of 3, 2 yr old and 9 month old pup. Never had such a warm welcome anywhere before. The young bar and front of house staff are fantastic. Food on both occasions was delicious, well worth the day trip from Liverpool! Unfortunately, on the second occasion there was a horrid customer very aggressively complaining about not very much, other patrons felt very uncomfortable for the young manager , who dealt with it amazingly. Flabbergasted by other people’s inability to be polite, kind and honest. Anyhow, we’ll be back again , Dysart 💕

We returned to the Dysart Arms after our last visit in 2012. It was even better. Beautiful location, outstandingly good staff and delicious food.

We visited for lunch and thoroughly enjoyed our visit. I had a delicious winter warmer soup, served with a generous wedge of bread. My husband enjoyed a halloumi wrap, which he said was really tasty. With coffees to follow, we were full and happy after a delightful lunch. The service was fabulous as it always it. All Brunning and Price establishments clearly train their employees to a significantly high standard, many other hospitality industries would learn a lot from observing them. We look forward to our next visit.

Went here for dinner as a group of 4. Got lovely table in the library area. Staff very friendly and chatty. Had great beer, cocktails and wine. Had a variety of starters and for mains, either the halibut or the venison pie. Good portion sizes and excellent food. Lovely environment.

Out for a walk and came upon the Dysart Arms around lunch time. Other customers were there for a "a good meal out" and were dressed appropriately, but the humble tramp received a warm welcome, excellent single course meal and pint of AFB. I'll be back for a proper meal suitably attired.

Fabulous Sunday roast, everything cooked to perfection and piping hot. Beautiful pub, lovely atmosphere, good pint and excellent service. As Arnie would say ‘I’ll be back’.

Asked for and we were shown to a table. We were told that drinks order would be taken at the table. After waiting drinks and food order was taken. Drinks arrived after another wait, followed by the food. Halibut for my partner, fish, chips and...

We have gone here many times over the past 20 years, throughout different managements. Unfortunately, there's been a decline each time. We went for the Christmas menu in early December and in a word .... awful. Worst Christmas dinner ever had. Really sad to see...

First visit thought it was great. My venison pie was brilliant, wife loved her sausage and mash, father in laws Crispy Chicken was okay. Great idea of a small pudding with a coffee, staff were lovely.

Travelling on the canal this pub had been recommended and it was worth the walk to the village. A very warm welcome (we hadn't reserved) and shown to a nice table in room with a log fire burning. The menu has plenty of variety and...

We’d booked a table for lunch, arrived and said hello to the chap pulling a pint behind the bar, absolutely no response but hey ho maybe he didn’t hear me (even if he must have seen my husband and I). We were then seated quickly...

Visited the village of Bunbury, what a delight. We stopped off for a drink at the Dysart Arms. What a welcoming pub. Log fire, friendly staff. Dog friendly, double bonus. Unfortunately, we did not sample the food. Had a table by door. Friendly locals, such...

Picture the scene a cold morning waking up after a few beers the day before and hankering for some food. We ventured our selves out of our house and found the Dysart while travelling through bunbury. We entered the building the smell of logs burning...

I don’t think they like vegetarians. The last 3 out of 4 times I’ve been, there has only been 1 vegetarian dish out of 12 mains. It’s always mushroom something. Give me all the veg but not the dreaded mushroom. In the other pubs in...

Well what can I say....Excellant A friend recommended this lovely place for the outstanding food, she wasnt wrong. Very attentive staff, excellant wine menu and the food was off the scale. I had the most amazing game suet pudding, so full of flavour. Couldnt fault...

I don't believe in writing a bad review and feel you should always approach the establishment first. I've not had a response from my email, so just want to share a few things regarding this venue. We have been several times now and never had...

As a reasonably frequent customer for num er of years my wife and I have numerous staff changes and we think a change of management we think three times. As each change happened we have felt a slight decline in quality of meals along with...

Nice ambiance, lovely food, friendly and helpful staff - a great experience. A more interesting menu than some other B&P pubs. Defonitely worth a visit.

Food took 45 minutes to arrive and when it did, the roast beef was raw, did not have vegetables as advertised and the pasta off the children's menu was full of chilies... Really poor and we not going back.

Lovely place to visit and eat. Well clued up on gluten free - I had a lovely lamb shoulder roast out of several choices. Also great desserts, had a very lovely Crème brûlée with beautiful shortbread - the same ones muggles were eating!Nice surroundings and...

The Dysart has always been the best pub in the area - great food and beer and friendly service. No longer. The food was still good (although there are better pubs for food nearby) but the beer selection was indifferent and the service was lackadaisical....

Cannot fault this Pub/Restaurant. lovely village setting, great atmosphere and Library Restaurant wonderful and excellent food. We were on a narrow boat and happened to come across it about 15 minute walk from canal but worth the trip.

Let's start with the good, it's a beautiful location, lots of space, quiet and very family (and dog) friendly. The team while nice on the surface, range from attentive to lackadaisical with a pinch of "I'm really not that confident". Unfortunately the big turn off...

Excellent quality,friendly service and wonderful surroundings. Crispy beef salad and fishcake were freshly prepared and very tasty.

Don't know what has happened to this pub, went with some friends for Sunday roast which was inedible. Beef "served pink"was black and like leather, sent it back twice and each time it came back exactly the same but wiith more black gravy until my...

This was our third visit to the Dysert Arms,the first two times had been excellent, but this time was totally different!!! Food was extremally disappointing for the price. I wish I'd read the previous reviews about the roast dinners before I'd booked a special Sunday...

Dysart Arms is approximately half way between where I live, and my family lives, so based on the majority excellent reviews on here, I booked it to celebrate my 50th birthday with them. First impressions - beautiful pub in a stunning setting, however, that's where...

We popped in on Friday the 27th for a bite to eat. Unfortunately the food wasn't great. It was luke warm and when we informed the waitress she said o sorry I will tel the chef. We had a couple of drinks which were very...

We were really disappointed by our meal with friends yesterday. The Steamed English Asparagus I had was tough, undercooked and cold. Our friend's Fish and Chips had more batter than fish so he wasn't impressed. My husband’s Goat's Cheese Salad, although classified as a main...

We used to have a meal at the Dysart Arms every other month until six years ago on our way back home from N. Wales to Stafford and found the food etc. very good and looked forward to our visit recently. Unfortunately the food was...

Popped in for lunch on a Friday. The staff were attentive and happy to serve. The fish and chips were delicious. Well worth a detour for this beautiful, little pub.

I’ve been coming here for years as I live in the village and although the pub itself is lovely and the staff are always very friendly and efficient, the food is extremely poor quality, especially for the price they charge. I try not to eat...

Stopped in on a drive through the area. Had a pint of local beer (Weetwood Best) and my wife had a rose. We sat in the garden which overlooks the church. Lovely pint and picturesque settings... will definitely go back to try out the menu!

The gluten free menu was one of the best I’ve ever seen. Lots of choice which is unusual for a gluten free menu but it was brilliant. The food was also exceptional (also unusual being gluten free!) and the rest of my family also really...

Arranged a family meal to celebrate special birthdays. We live in different areas so met here as it was a similar distance for us all. Unfortunately the food is not as described or like the pictures. We ordered mainly roast dinners along with a burger...

Great atmosphere and decor - oldie worldly with lots of pictures and objects of interest to spark conversation. Food was tasty and staff were attentive

First visit to this lovely old world pub with friends. Four superb meals were served with first class service from an extensive varied menu, which was quite different from the usual pub fare.

Had a family meal (11) here - the staff are really nice. Food choice was a bit basic and quality was average. Not as good as it used to be, a bit disappointing

There is a wonderful comfort and welcoming atmosphere. The food that we had was excellent, and the staff were helpful and friendly. This was really one of the best experiences we have had when eating out in a really long time. We shall be back...

Really disappointed. We were allowed to order before being told 2 of our choices had sold out. Waited 30 mins for food. Tiny portions of chips. No one asked if food was ok. Had to chase servers to ask for further drinks and pudding orders....

3rd time I've been recently as I went once and loved it so much I couldn't wait to go back and share it with others! Food is excellent, a good mix of different dishes, if you like pub classics then go for the fish and...

Visited with my partner and little boy. Wonderful pub. Food was superb as was the beer. Very good service. Lovely place and I will be coming back again.

My husband and I called in whilst having a nosey around Tarporley and surrounding villages. This Pub is beautiful inside and out. A real fire greeted us with warm and friendly staff. Great choice of local real ales and wines. We could only stay for...

Excellent food and lovely staff, 2 had the steak sandwich with fries and one had the venison cottage pie with red cabbage, all enjoyed with empty plates at the end.

Food great although the small portion of Fish and Chips was very small for £10.95.... not great VFM. The service and surroundings was lovely though. A good background hum of chatter and the noise of the bearded guy behind the bar keeping everyone very aware...

Having sorted and finished a longish country walk at the pub we decided to reward ourselves with lunch. Greeted with a roaring fire upon entry we chose a fireside table and ordered lunch, enjoyed great pub fayre - fish cakes, sausage and mash - a...

Went with our kids and our friends and their kids. Great pub and service and then food was brilliant. Perfectly cooked thick pink roast beef and large Yorkshire with the usual trimmings. My wife had the steak and ale pie which was great too! Will...

Visited this pub often and usually have really good food. However came for Sunday lunch- had to ask for steak knifes to cut thought the roast potatoes and Yorkshire pudding- still impossible to cut- obviously been reheated . Very overpriced . Did mention it to...

We had Sunday lunch here recently. Service was slow, both for drinks and the meal itself. One of the party had fish and chips as a main and described the dish as very greasy. The portions of both pork and beef with the roasts were...

Sadly on this occasion the food was awful, don’t know whether they were too busy or what but the meal was clearly reheated

The Dysart never disappoints. Fabulous food, matched by the service, and the most wonderful setting and ambience. Cannot fault it, and can’t wait for our next visit.

Fabulous evening of Hot Delicious food at the Dysart ,we where a full table of 12 in Fabulous surroundings and really enjoyed our evening .Staff where attentive and jolly .

Popped in for a light lunch today when travelling home to West Yorkshire from Wales. The food was excellent, the staff very helpful and friendly and the pub is just gorgeous. We only had a light lunch but the food coming out to other tables...

Food, ambience, service and staff - all brilliant as always. Despite a power cut during our meal, the staff calmly took control and managed the situation perfectly.

The "Dysart Arms" was very busy when we dined there on a Sunday night and had at least one large party eating. Conditions could not have been easy but service was good and there was not a long wait for the food which was of...

After living in Nantwich for over 3 years and frequently visiting the fantastic restaurant The Lord Combermere . We stumbled across The Dysart Arms tucked away in Tarporley. Offering an amazing Gluten Free menu with so many choices. This restaurant has a warm and friendly...

The food, the team, the atmosphere was brilliant when we visited last week. We were looking for a relaxed lunch time meal and got a lot more. We spent 3 and half hours relaxing (and eating!) We had the: Garlic prawns (beautifully cooked and fresh)...

Lovely traditional country pub. Very friendly staff small but well balanced menu and great selection of beers couldn't fault it.

I'll preface this review by saying the pub itself is charming and lovely, it's genuinely one of the most idyllic country pubs I've had the pleasure to wander across, with a brilliant outdoor area with a cool teepee and a marquee for al fresco dining....

My husband and I had a gorgeous meal here last night, king prawn starters were lovely and they have put the Game Suet pudding back on the menu which was absolutely delicious. No complaints from us, lovely staff and ambiance.

Superb food, a rather long wait between the starters and mains is my only complaint! The food was all beautifully presented and thoughtfully put together. I had a real problem choosing between so many lovely options but the pork saltimbocca was amazing, every element was...

First time visit. Lovely Sunday dinner, great location and authentic ambiance inside. All the staff were fantastic and couldn't do enough. Will be back, thanks.

Thankyou to Stuart for accommodating a party of 8 at short notice . The whole experience was amazing : excellent service , menu choices for adults and children, quality and presentation of the food . Location is beautiful too !

Lovely food and great for outside eating. Very welcoming and took our child’s dietary requirements into account. Quick and very good service.

Enjoyed a wonderful lunch with friends and every single aspect of The Dysart Arms achieves 100%! From the welcoming atmosphere, the attentive and very pleasant staff, the delicious food to the overall experience of a relaxing Cheshire afternoon. The gardens are beautiful, with views to...

Always look forward too eating in the Dysart, best place too eat for miles around, food last night was great, just wish the desert portions were not as small as they are, sticky toffee pudding favourite but portion too small for the price. Last night's...

Brilliant little country pub that is full of character where they make your dining experience special. The food is exceptional and is served by friendly and attentive staff.

Family meet up for lunch. None of us are from the area or had been to the pub before. On arrival we were made very welcome and everyone was attentive but not overbearing. Half of our party got stuck in traffic and were 45 minutes...

Met a friend of mine here, he had traveled some distance to meet for lunch and surprisingly he brought his dog Bobbie. The team at the Dysart could not have been more welcoming, they made a “fuss” over Bobbie and provided a great experience for...

We ate outdoors and enjoyed the view of the church and gardens. The pub has a lot of character - location perfect. Loved my katsu curry. very friendly service.

We are holidaying in Delamere forest and wanted a Pub lunch. I can not recommend this place enough. Good cask ales and really good food and very reasonable prices. Dogs are welcome. The staff couldn't be more friendly. Nice to have dinner and feel normal...

Beef Rendang..Amazing. Great pub and real ales in a fine village a short and beautiful walk from the Canal. Great staff.

We visited for lunch , there is no need to book but to arrive early , thee is plenty of space outside and full covid prevention measures are in place , service is swift but unhurried , food / wine beer is very good ,...

Well organised on arrival. Instructions were to order via the QR code on the table. Sparkling water is hidden amongst beer and cider, luckily the waitress came out and took our drinks order. We then ordered food via the QR code, again the waitress came...

Lovely old building full of character set in really pretty surroundings. Great food, relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff.

The food here is lovely , good and honest country pub menu,however, they have Introduced a system whereby you scan a QR code on the table, make the order and even settle the tab using the App .The whole experience is very impersonal and to...
