Pastry Pédaleur in Cheshire West and Chester

Great food, nice atmosphere and great service ! After yet another happy dinner with friends tonight, I decided it was high time I put a good review. Thank you Chez Jules and your staff, especially Endina who went out of her way to help me present the birthday cake to my celebrating friends. Greatly appreciated by the Greek lady whom you helped so much. Beautiful Hungary has beautiful people.

Lovely lunch with family, food delicious and Lorenzo is very friendly :) Fantastic Italian tapas

We went here as we had Tesco vouchers which I think a lot of people had and this may explain the prices for the food you get. You had to pick off the a la carte menu, I had Beef Bourguignon for £18.35 which contained two pieces of beef and a large amount of beefy mushrooms on a bed of mash. It looked very meaty but only two pieces. The King Prawn starter was nice at nearly ten pounds. There was quite a wait to be served as there seemed to be a changeover from the breakfast to the lunch sitting and someone from the kitchen staff ended up running out with the starters. If I did not have the Tesco vouchers I would not have been very happy at the prices charged, but the restraunt is still getting those full prices for the vouchers used I presume. The thing is you would never visit again based on the price for the mushroom Bourguignon and also the Cesar salad which was about £14 and you had to pay extra for chicken.

Great food and service, only let down by being yet another establishment to adopt the policy of adding a service charge to the bill automatically. In my opinion it should be entirely up to the customer if they want to leave a tip for good service and not to have it added automatically.

We came for a birthday dinner for my husband but sadly we were both underwhelmed by the food. The snacks to start were delicious but not all dishes that followed were as successful. Some of the flavours of the dishes were a little jarring but two of the dishes were actually difficult to eat. My Cornish bluefin tuna, rather than being melt in the mouth, was tough to cut through and the white tendon was still in place which wasn’t chewable so I had to spit it out. It was also served with small discs of radish which were raw, so the whole dish was off, even though the ponzu dressing was tasty. Ordinarily this would have been my favourite. The main course was squab pigeon but was served with the wing, including foot and claws, so was a bit too much reality for me and made us feel sad about the food rather than joyful. The waitress weirdly made a point of highlighting which bit was the heart as ‘she’d like to know what she was eating,’ so I don’t even think she was on board with this dish. To be fair to the restaurant we were given the chance to review the menu when having pre dinner drinks and we were asked if we had any comments. I can’t recall however whether this detail was in there. The wine flight however was really good with some really interesting selections such as the dessert wine with rose water. The sommelier at least had a bit of personality. Overall due to us not enjoying a couple of dishes and not bowled over by the rest, we came away feeling disappointed and not value for money. Sadly the foot is all I can think about!!
