The tasting menu was an amazing meal for the price. The food felt "like home", classically French without the fuss and the service was impeccable and warm.

Visited last Friday for the Steak Frites night with my wife. It's best meal I've had in any restaurant in Cheshire, possibly the best anywhere. You get what you pay for and this was top quality, freshly cooked food. Had the Cauliflower Curried Soup to start. Sirloin and Frites with peppercorn for main (also a lovely bowl of garnish on the side). Creme Brulee for desert. Also 3 courses were perfectly cooked and tasty. The steak was unbelievably tender. The Creme Brulee is now my favourite dessert. It's a beautiful restaurant. Fantastic service. Can't wait to visit again.

We were staying in Goostrey for the weekend and booked this absolutely lovely restaurant for the Saturday evening. The restaurant itself is beautiful with stunning decor and a welcoming atmosphere. The food was delicious - I had the tuna to start and the brill for my main - I couldn’t fault it. The service was friendly and the experience exceeded expectations. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

All good food thanks but lacking something. Seared tuna as starter was a little bland. Mains was venison that was cooked perfectly. Limited menu that possibly wouldn't satisfy some. Generally nice restaurant, polite staff and nice food. Yes we would go back but certainly not rushing there, no wow factor. Didn't feel good value for money. Maybe Sunday lunch would be a better experience.

Wow. What a great restaurant. Found this place on the Michelin guide app. This place is next level. The food and service were world class. I had soft shell crab for a starter and venison for main. My girlfriend has the steak. She said it was the best steak she has ever had. This is a small romantic place. Well staffed with great service. The Sommelier at the restaurant knows a lot of good wine. We had a pairing of white/red with our meal. Definitely recommend this place for a great meal out.

Went to the steak frites evening. We upgraded to the chateaubriand. Everything about this place is fabulous. The food. The service. The atmosphere. It is ran by a family and that is what you feel. If you are going out to treat someone special. This is one of the best places.

Really nice place and relaxed atmosphere. Not too busy. Food was excellent and for three courses worked out no more expensive than the big chain pubs nearby, but far better quality. Nice big juicy king prawn starter, followed by a very tasty Roast Beef main. It was my wife’s birthday and a nice touch was made with an indoor firework and brownies while waiting for the bill. Definitely returning to try an evening meal.

Lovely countryside venue maintaining the charm of being in a converted barn. Staff were all really attentive and introduced each dish as it was delivered to the table. We opted for the tasting menu and were able to sample some lovely food, very well prepared and beautifully presented. Everything we had as part of the seven courses was delicious with really good quality meat that was expertly cooked. A taste sensation and highly recommended. Judge for yourselves from the photos.

I am sorry to say we were very disappointed with this meal. It was a special event for us and La Popotte offered quality dining - certainly based on the price. The menu is quite short which is often a good sign but as we couldn’t find anything special to choose we went for the tasting menu at £85 a head. This turned out to be a small portion of several of the larger dishes on the menu which were all OK but not special in any way. The largest course was a meat course - a Barnsley chop with some collapsing foam and a leaf of Swiss chard. Hardly tasting menu material. The ‘pre dessert’ was ice cream with a few chocolate drops on the top. The actual dessert was a cherry tart cut in half - if you had the main menu you got the whole tart with no trimmings - hardly fine dining. The meal lacked the subtlety and care that you would expect from a tasting menu. I confess to not complaining but who wants to make a fuss in a small restaurant? However after some thought I felt I should let others know that our experience was very disappointing. With two glasses of wine and a G&T the bill came to £235 for two people which would not be unreasonable for top quality food. I should add that the staff were very pleasant and attentive - the problem was in the kitchen.

We go to la popete regularly, and really enjoy the food, service and wine. The cooking and presentation is excellent the only slightly negative is they do often have menu substitutions on their Les 4 saisons menu, which can be disappointing as with a limited menu you may not have an easy alternative to select from.

We went for lunch and it was a new menu. The chicken thigh starter was subtly spiced, utterly delicious; the salmon was lovely but maybe a hint more mint in the sauce would have given it more flavour. The mains of guinea fowl were excellent, and certainly the equal of many Michelin one star restaurants. The Eton Mess was a good dessert but not particularly ambitious considering the obvious skill of the chef. Best lunch we have had for some time!

Birthday Treat Another enjoyable fine dining experience, this time seated in the garden with early evening sunshine. First class service all the way with smiling staff . Some super dishes on the A La Carte menu. The crayfish starter and smoked salmon were amazing. For mains we had pork chop and the duck. There’s a varied wine list with some real gems. The Violet Guillemard Hautes Cote de Beaune is our favourite. A lot of interest in the house chips from other reviewers. Not just any chip, these have a lengthy prep process involving layering that delivers an exceptional chip. Worth every penny! Looking forward to a return trip soon

Definitely not for the ‘burger brigade’ - if you want this type of food, please just visit your local pub and stop complaining about paying £2 for extra gravy here! Their 7-Course Tasting Menu is fantastic value for money for the quality of the dishes. We are never disappointed and this is a lovely restaurant with lots to offer. Definitely recommend.

Visited Saturday 1/6 with my wife and family. Beautiful restaurant, excellent service and food. Tried the Frites and was a little apprehensive due to previous review about the number of them. However, that was soon allayed on seeing and tasting them. These aren't fries, no resemblance at all. They are much more, larger, very filling and taste delicious. Will definitely be ordering them again if available on my next visit.

We took a friend here for lunch on Saturday, we had dined here around 5 years ago. A nice welcome and time for a pre drink whilst our friend arrived. A leisurely pace for lunch and not rushed at all, we all chose the lunch menu. The food was delicious, our only comment would be the price of the side dishes. £6 for minted peas and £6 for fries. My husband had fries and there were 5 in total - yes he counted them! The price being charged for sides just seems a little too much in our opinion and did leave us feeling a little disappointed. There were plenty of peas, in fact too many for 1 person! Overall, lovely menu and food and would be 5/5 if the price of the side dishes was reviewed or quantity increased on fries to be a fairer price.

Our first visit to La Popote since taken over by new owners. First impression was of a bright and welcoming decor. Staff were friendly and service in general was efficient and pleasant. We ate from the menu for the week which is excellent value for money. Both our starters were delicious especially the garlic prawns. Mains were generous in quantity. The only comment I would make is in the balance of mine, which was confit venison, very rich needing some thing to soften it. More vegetable and more of the raddicio would have improved it. However, a really pleasant lunch and La Popote is certainly worth a visit. We will certainly return.

We keep going back here to give it one more chance because the food is generally very good albeit the portions are ridiculously small for the price. I would have expected more monk fish on a 10 course taster menu than we got for a £36 main course. Nothing with it apart from 2 very small piece of asparagus so needed 2 side dishes which took the cost over £50. We always seem to spend over £100 per head and leave hungry. We don’t mind spending money but we expect to see something on the plate. The bread and amuse bouche were very poor. A pity because this was very good.

Visited Saturday evening as a couple. Was absolutely fantastic. This is a beautiful restaurant both inside and out. The service was excellent, friendly, professional and attentive, but not overbearing. The food was excellent. The contrasting flavours and textures were sublime. Prices are reasonable when you take into account what you get - fantastic location with parking directly outside, beautiful decor, white tablecloths, professional and friendly service, excellent freshly cooked food using quality produce. We're so lucky to have this restaurant on our doorstep. It may not be in everyone's price range, but if you like the finer things, then it's worth pushing the boat out.

Words cannot describe how disappointed our party were with this restaurant. it certainly is not the restaurant. It was a few years ago where you were guaranteed to get good food and personal service. We went with friends for my birthday meal. We were taken straight to the table as there was no room to have a drink at the bar. Their didn’t appear to be anybody significant front of house – and considering the prices they charge. I expect a bit more fuss to be made. The menu is very limited and to be quite honest I struggled to find a starter that I actually would really like. The restaurant lacks ambience service and an interesting menu. I certainly won’t be going back there in a hurry, unless they change what they’re doing. I think they are riding on the back of what fabulous restaurant it used to be.

Very very expensive for very average food, definitely not worth the money, fresh green vegetables were NOT included on the roast only one carrot, potatoes were very dry and over cooked, starter took 1 hour to come and was very salty, wouldn’t recommend save your money and go somewhere decent. They also charged us an extra £6 for asking for extra gravy and gave us the smallest pot between 5 people. Staff were nice enough but didn’t ask if we would like any nibbles as we waited over 1 hour for the starter. Super poor experience.

A high class perfectly cooked meal with fine wine in stylish surroundings with impeccable service. Couldn’t really ask for more! The best in local casual fine dining with a contemporary French flavour. Booking was easy on line with a follow up mail to check for food allergies and if our booking was for a special occasion. It was a birthday celebration. A warm welcome on arrival , a drink by the bar whilst we checked out the menu. We opted for the A La Carte but there were some appealing dishes on the menu for the week with great value two or three course options. The wine list was exceptional with a strong emphasis on quality French and catered for most tastes. Good to see the spring water was from a local source, the renowned Crag brand from Wildboarclough. Our meals were excellent and perfectly cooked. The service was friendly and very professional. They even brought me out a birthday firework ! Attention to detail in everything they do. The decor of the dining room is very attractive and the floodlit garden a pleasing feature. What a perfect ambience, for a fine dining experience. We had a fabulous meal and will return to what has to be one of best restaurants in Cheshire.

A Festive Atmosphere, but Culinary Disappointments I recently dined at La Popote for their Christmas meal, and while the atmosphere was undeniably festive and inviting, the culinary experience left much to be desired. The restaurant was adorned with enchanting Christmas decorations, creating a warm and celebratory ambiance that set the perfect tone for the holiday season. The staff were attentive and friendly, contributing to the overall positive atmosphere. However, the disappointment began when our Christmas meals arrived. I opted for the Beef Wellington, expecting a flavorful and indulgent experience. To my surprise, the dish lacked a crucial element – green vegetables. The absence of a side of greens was a noticeable oversight, leaving the plate feeling incomplete and unbalanced. My wife faced her own culinary letdown as she sought a classic accompaniment for her turkey – cranberry sauce. Unfortunately, the restaurant was unable to provide this seemingly basic condiment, leaving her turkey somewhat dry and lacking the anticipated burst of festive flavor. While the restaurant did succeed in creating a delightful holiday atmosphere, the subpar execution of the Christmas meals was disheartening, especially considering the premium prices charged.

I booked a table for Christmas Day for two, the only time they had was 12.00. The menu was £150 each , we had smoked salmon which was nice, ballotine of turkey which we didn’t like. I know ballotine means boned and rolled but it was not sliced and came as one very thick piece with gravy and an accompaniment of the tiniest sprouts on a purée I think of parsnip, and a tiny square of stuffing. The waiter brought two roast potatoes each separately . The dessert was Xmas pudding and brandy cream. I had two cocktails and my guest two glasses of wine. There was also included a glass of champagne on arrival, and an amuse Bouche and an appetiser during the meal. There were only 12 people in at 12.00 so the atmosphere was flat. The decor is very nice and the service fine and professional. The Christmas Cracker the worst quality I have ever seen. The final bill nearly £400. Ridiculously expensive for average food.

This particular evening I have to say WOW , amazing service as always , very welcoming, the food was OUTSTANDING. Beef wellington was absolutely fantastic. Our bill was just under £400 for the four of us including the service charge which in my opinion very deserving. My daughter and I had a cocktail each and her partner had a beer and a bottle of red with my husband and table water . The atmosphere was wonderful with a gentleman singing in the background.

This restaurant used to be a favourite for myself and two friends, but the last two visits have been extremely disappointing. We will not be going again. We had the lunch menu and the food was quite literally mostly tasteless and very poor quality. The best part of the meal was the dessert. We left feeling hungry, having paid £143 between the three of us, No way can they claim to be offering 'fine dining'. We have had far superior food in the Cheshire pubs! And by the way, the A La Carte prices are just mind blowing! They are clearly trading on the past reputation of the place, which bears no relation to the present situation,

Our waitors were sooooo friendly. We weren't rushed to order, to eat or to pay. The restaurant is beautiful, and very welcoming. The food was out of this world, so unbelievably tasty, everything cooked to perfection with so much flavour in every bite. Presentation of our meal was beautiful too. Would highly recommend going

Absolutely loved out lunch here. It is our second visit and not only did it not live up to its expectations but far superseded it. Blown away with the cuisine and the service. Can’t wait for our next visit.

Received an email to say that the garden was opening and with the weather set fair, booked a midweek table for lunch. Lovely to be in the garden, only two tables taken though and that affected the ambience. Impeccable service as always, more tales of...

We had an amazing lunch experience at La Popote. We chose to get together on the Saturday lunchtime for Mother’s Day to avoid the busyness of the Sunday. We had been several times before but this was our first under the new owners. Upon arrival...

We visited here back in March as we'd been drinking at the Picturedrome. Last minute decision as the weather was poor, but what a pleasant surprise. Amazingly, it being a Saturday evening, there was just one other couple dining. I am absolutely delighted to see the reviews on here because they are so well deserved. All I remember was that the food was delicious and the chef came out between courses to deliver some tasty nibbles. He described his creation with a real passion. I have the bill and we had the onion bhajis and then the Saag and confit de poulet for mains. A nice bottle of Shiraz was £25. This review has reminded me I need to make a reservation sooner rather than later.

Popped by for a pizza for dinner. Lad behind the counter was brilliant, even let me borrow a phone charger for a bit. Really great service. Ordered the veggie pizza, it was ok at best. A bit too greasy for my liking, but had a good quantity of olives as toppings. A bit more finesse would go a long way!

The setting works well and the dining experience is comfortable. The menu is constrained but imaginative which means they can produce well cooked fresh food to a high standard. Macclesfield is short on venues of this type - good quality without over doing the price. They deserve to succeed.
