Disappointed at the small portion of ribs (2). Food is lovely but can’t justify the cost for such small portions. Then made worse by being 30 minutes late

The restaurant was dead. The food was not authentic and clearly all from the freezer. I've never had tapas where the chef puts a side of mayonnaise or barbecue sauce with every dish. Clearly not confident in this food because Spanish food shouldn't need a condiment. The restaurant is beautiful (if you love pink and flowers) and the staff seem really friendly

Been here a few times now and never disappointed. We had a family meal last weekend and it was delicious. Best tapas Iv had in a long time and very reasonably priced. Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff and great cocktail list. Can also highly recommend the bottomless brunch that Iv had before with friends. Thank you lilac for a wonderful meal. Can’t wait to come back 😊

Food was below average. Felt like it wasn't cooked fresh to order. We had to ask the waitress several times for basic things like please can you take our order, can we see the dessert menu etc etc Very expensive for what you get. Would not recommend and will not visit again.

We have used Lilac Cottage many times over the years, this time, taking friends, the table was waiting, but the service very slow, we were asked for our menu choice before the drinks order was taken and even the menu arrived. The speaker music was too loud to talk. The young female singer did very well to entertain. The male waiter seemed lost as to where shared meals would be placed, we had to show and make space... overall, it was a poor night. Here's hoping it was a blip

Came in with a party of 22 for a 40th birthday. Originally 24 but 2 dropped out. From the get go the manager seemed to think there were 27 people in the party and refused to recount when asked. This caused a major fuss with the bill at the end of the night with the manager insisting that the table had to pay £30 extra because the staff had miscounted the numbers. He was very argumentative and refused any solutions we came up with. At the end of what was supposed to be a relaxed 40th celebration, the birthday girl was asked to provide proof that we had paid our deposits prior to the evening, despite my partner providing the deposit in full in June! Apparently the previous manager had been fired and not provided details of prior payments. We were made to feel that our integrity and honesty was being questioned when surely it's the responsibility of the business to keep records of payments made. This put a dampener on the evening and partially spoilt what should have been a memorable celebration. We wrote to the manager directly expressing our disappointment but unfortunately we are still waiting for the courtesy of a reply. It's such a shame because the ambiance and the food, and the other staff were excellent under the circumstances. We have always had positive experiences at this place until now.

My husband and I ate here a few weeks ago and liked it so much that we decided to book again for my birthday, which was yesterday. So we make the 20 mile journey only to find the place is closed and has been for a few weeks, pretty much after we made the booking. To make matters worse was the attitude of the person inside who was pretty much laughing at the fact that no-one had bothered to cancel the booking and just shrugged his shoulders. So much for a nice birthday meal. Really disappointed in the lack of common courtesy. Gave it more than one star as a previous meal there was really nice.

We had lunch at this restaurant yesterday. The food was delicious, and the dining environment was very pleasant. However, there was a misunderstanding when we settled the bill. As customers from China, we don’t have a habit of paying tips separately (the service charge is usually included in the food prices). Therefore, when we saw a default 10% service charge on the bill, we thought it to be an unreasonable extra charge, so we requested to have this charge removed. However, we did some research and realized that this is often seen as a complaint about poor service. We understand that our actions yesterday may have hurt the server. In fact, the gentleman who served us was very professional and patient, and he kindly took back a dish we accidentally ordered due to misspeaking. I want to apologize to the staff: you provided perfect service, and this was a misunderstanding due to cultural differences. I hope it didn’t cause you any distress.❤️

When a friend of ours comes up North to visit, his only request as to what to do, is to visit St Martha, a high accolade indeed. Once again we were not disappointed. We shared meze to start: pita and dips, fried courgettes, halloumi and spanakopita, I was disappointed to see that the Cretan bougasta was no longer on the menu, one of my absolute favs, the instrument used to cut it was spectacular. Souvlaki was the firm favourite with us all, both chicken and lamb, tender and beautifully cooked. Washed down by a delightful Greek wine. The service as is always outstanding, so friendly. Our absolute favourite restaurant in Nantwich, until the next time……
