puss in boots in Cheshire East

Traditional pub. Made us a cup of tea. Thank you for the service

We had a dinner there last Sunday. The meat was tough as old boots and the veg was cooked from frozen. You only had a choice of 2 meats. There were very few people in eating and now i know why. Would not recommend.

Caught it on a quiet night, but the pubs nice, the real ales great & the service excellent.

Best place in Stockport Food lovely and the staff are the best very helpful and friendly nothings to much trouble for them

Are Christmas Dinner was great . Excellent value for money

Getting better and better every time I visit, Steve is a traditional old school landlord, not everyone’s cup of tea but we think he’s brilliant and he keeps his beer (white rat) excellently.

Dissatisfied with food Cold veg stuffing balls like cannon balls Under cooked parsnips and cauliflower Meat portions small

Nara’s kitchen is open for dine in or take away at The Puss in the Boots . A must try ! Truly delicious authentic Cambodian Food .

Great Cambodian food (similar to Thai), good sized portions, good value for money. Takeaway is a big part of their business so it can be busy 6 -> 7.30 With cask ale from the pub a perfect night out.

Nice pint of Timothy Taylor. I didn't eat

Absolutely delicious food from Nara’s Kitchen Cambodian food - served on Friday and Saturdays in the Lounge Bar. Authentic food and fast service - they do take away too!

Friendly landlord who served a nice pint of Inch's cider, however, we went in there to eat Thursday evening to find food was only served on Friday and Saturday. Cambodian menu looked fantastic and we will try to get back there again.

Ordered a half of Osset White Rat. Was served it in a glass with a dead fly on the rim and black gunge on the rest of the rim. Pointed this out to the barman who offered to change to a fresh glass. Fair enough. But then proceeded to pour beer from dirty glass into clean glass. I politely requested fresh beer in the fresh glass, at which point senior barman told me to leave! Unbelievable poor customer service and bad hygiene practice. Wouldn't recommend. Unnecessarily aggressive and miserable bar staff. Very disappointing.🙁

Great beer fantastic beer garden landlord very helpful

Dreadful place, dreadful staff, dreadful customers!

Great beer garden next to the canal in the sun!

We booked the back room for a get together with family and friends and Steve the landlord provided a lovely buffet. It was the perfect venue with a nice beer garden and steps to seating by the canal. It was all ready for us and Steve was really helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. There was no problem parking nearby and it went really well, I would definitely recommend the Puss in Boots as a venue for a do.

Nothing special, the TV was on way too loud and the new landlord was pretty miserable. Probably won't be back

Cracking Sunday dinner and very friendly welcoming staff

Not much space by the canal and not that looked after. It's ok.

Fantastic menu; the food was delicious and the service and friendliness of the staff was great. Would highly recommend and I will be going back!

Really nice dog friendly pub. Good music good food.

Went for a steak with a friend after a nice drive in the Peak District a few weeks back. Steak was fantastic. service was excellent and the staff were friendly. Will definitely be going back!

Kind service from staff, and amazing touches here and there, especially in the bathrooms. Definitely would come again.

Great beer and lovely stake. Will call again when we return to Macclesfield

Met with close family for Mothers Day, late lunch. What a lovely surprise on a fine warm sunny day. Great new look and feel to the now renamed Waterside Bistro restaurant side of the pub. We entered via the more traditional pub side, with friendly smiling customers. Also accessible from the canalside, up external steps. The staff team were friendly, knowledgeable, helpful and great with all customer groups, to include dogs as part of the family, too. So thanks to Lou and Iain, we enjoyed the experience, delicious hot roasts (various) and laid-back yet efficient service. We can honestly say it is highly recommended

Absolutely great! Lovely staff - a great atmosphere, amazing food and service. I cannot recommend enough!

What an Idillic place, Cant wait to sit outside in the sun, I visited with my partner in the evening and it was a little cold outside, but they have a lovely little terrace outside by the river for warmer days. The food was amazing, fresh and home cooked is what they tell you, and it can be seen and tasted when it arrives. The staff are very attentive, its run by a lovely couple who cant do enough for you, and clearly appreciate your custom, a wide selection of drinks available also, with some fantastic Ales, (Doombar) which is rarely found within smaller pubs outside of Cornwall. Since its recent re-brand, it has definitely improved, with more of an emphasis on the local friendly family pub type atmosphere rather than the previously branded viking type, which didn't really fit in with the local community. Ell worth a visit, and an up and coming regular.

The owners are absolutely first class hosts The beer is good and the food amazing Definitely worth a visit and highly recommend

The owners are fantastic and such a welcoming pub Great food and lovely atmosphere Definitely worth a visit if you are in town

Nice food friendly staff 5 stars.

Superb burger and great friendly service

Fantastic food, viking theme pub with lovely owners a very welcoming warm kind atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Loved it, enjoyed my food 🙌 will definitely go back

Under new management, the food and drinks are great. The menu is very different and unique, well worth a visit 👍

Under new management, went twice this week to eat, fantastic food, lovely friendly owners, really enjoyed our night

Absolutely fantastic! Warm welcome and amazing food honestly couldn't fault anything

This place is an absolute must visit. Menu is fantastic and their smoked brisket is phenomenonal. While there, had rainbow trout which was so beautiful. The staff are really warm and welcoming and it's also dog friendly to. Already planning my next trip back. Great pub, nice atmosphere and incredible food done with a lot of passion by a chef who cares about what he does. Cannot recommend enough!

It was nice to be back in your pub thinking of you all all thank you very much for your hospitality still excellent

Fantastic pub! Great staff and owners, super friendly and welcoming. The menu looks amazing and can't wait to try it. If you get the chance, give the Carolina Reaper Chicken Wings a try.... They're 🔥! Looking forward to bringing the family after a walk in Macc Forest.

I sometimes try new places and am disappointed. This time I was delighted. I was tempted in by the mention of scallops on a black pudding mashed potato on the boards outside. Inside I asked what dark ales they had and took a Theakstons Old Peculiar. Excellent. As a starter I took the goats cheese in panko, which came with a surprising pickled onion garnish. This too was excellent. Then the scallops, and yes, they were excellent. The staff and owners worked very hard to accommodate the needs of the next table, it seemed like literally nothing was too much trouble. As they made great efforts to please, I enjoyed a baked New York Cheesecake. Yum. The new owners here are working incredibly hard to make this a truly exceptional place to eat and drink. Don't delay, get here and enjoy it while you can. It's amazing!

We tied up directly outside the pub later in the afternoon.The new owners made us and our dog very welcome. The food and drinks were excellent.The toilets were clean and fresh, essential when thinking of revisiting.Mostly it was the enthusiasm and friendliness of the team that was really attractive.Thanks guys.

Lovely pub, under new ownership with great food and trooper on tap 😁

Popped in and had some drinks and food. The menu is ambitious and they pride themselves on freshness. They are very new, having recently bought the pub, and their attitude was exemplary. Welcoming, charming and enthusiastic. The cider selection was good, and the theakstons was well kept. The food was good and reasonably priced. I hope they succeed- such energy deserves it. If I lived here it would be my local.

This pub has been totally reinvented and has two amazing chef/owners and incredible front of house. They have revamped the menu and only do fresh food.I went for a soft opening night last night and they put on a full hog spitroast, amazing. It opens fully on 30th September and I for one cannot wait to go back. Absolutely amazing

Poor food, ugly garden. Lovely the macho interior film decor though.

Friendly staff. Disorganised. Poor lunch choice and food. Very reluctant to give poor reviews, but in my opinion need to up their game considerably.

Very helpful barmaid, made very welcome with my puppy, to use toilet, dog friendly inside and outside. Water was provided for my dog.

Went for the Sunday Carvery yesterday and thought it was excellent. Good service, excellent Covid arrangements and nice food. The meat was tender and moist and the veg wasn't over cooked, which I often find at a carvery. The plate sizes are ridiculously big, but I finished everything on my plate. At £80 for 4 of us including a few drinks it was fantastic value for money.Will be back!

Great beer garden and the option to sit in the canal , serves food and a good local pub.

Friendly staff, great outdoor space, and good beer and food. Will visit again

Friendly staff, good food, unfortunately no one had a handbag big enough to put the stuffed sheep in!!

Food wasn't great (turkey dinner was nowhere near worth £10 - the best bit was the gravy). Service wasn't up to scratch (took an hour between order and receiving our food). The staff were not very attentive and took an age to take drinks orders as well. Not impressed.

Went in, I waited 40 minutes for my meal. Then the atrocious staff sent me away. I wont be returning. Don't recommend this pub - maybe go to The Finger Post as I was treated better there.

Food was lovely, great atmosphere

The new sign made me laugh. I hope they can re-open soon.

Lovely pub, great food, great beer gardens and super staff!

Lovely staff, the food is spot on. Great affordable deals on the food too. My kids love ot here, watching the movies, enjoying watching the boats and ducks. Definitely my go to place in Macclesfield

This place is fantastic! The staff are wonderful the Sunday lunch they do is absolutely gorgeous!

we won the competition on Facebook. Myself an husband went for a lovely quite night out! Not what happened our table was booked for 7.30pm it wasn't clean or ready for us. We was told by the manager due to being busy we had to go to the bar. As table service wasn't available. ( Not in accordance with the new guidelines) we wasn't asked to sign in or scan the track an trace? We was given already used menus. We ordered cheesey garlic bread must of being microwaved the base wasn't cooked and chicken wings was served warm. We sent them back. I had cod chips an mushy peas the fish was very hard in places chips must of being cooked a couple times, my mushy peas had mint in them which wasn't pleasant. I ate nothing. My husband being a man manage to eat his ribeye but said is wasn't much. The football was on and they had the tv so loud I couldn't hear my husband talking to me. Which wasn't nice. As well as people shouting over it. The pub was far to loud. I really wanted to have a lovely meal with winning the prize. Totally gutted. The pub needs to also in force social distancing and practice it to. The manager a young woman was kissing the customers good bye... WHAT! WHY! Also chatting to a busy table of 12 or more (rule of 6 not been kept) no clear guidance on which way in or out. I have to be honest we didn't feel like we was safe. And the pub is very poorly run. We won't be going again. I can only hope they read my review and find it honest and helpful. They need to do more to keep our town safe.

Service from the bar staff was lovely and can't fault them but the food was disappointing for the price which is a shame as we've heard really good reviews - maybe just an off day 🤷🏼‍♀️

Resident DJ for five years, loved the food served prior to the change...Change of hands and my first experience of under new management was POOR...curry was ok presentation 2/10, food was mediocre and chips fresh zen and dry very poor...Next table food dry as a bone, didn’t understand food that was vegan for a young baby!!! They paid £45 and left almost the lot!!! Manager was poor, couldn’t emphasise with the public, staff rude or poor at customer service...quite SHODDY all round tonight...no social distancing, inexperienced staff, no smiles...my summary is...absolute joke, ran out of white wine, couldn’t organise a Puss (lol) up in a brewery...food rubbish!!!!

great meal today thankyou. Nice welcome, clean toilets. The only thing I find barking mad, is serving on wooden trays in the COVID era. We know these wooden trays allow bacteria to hide in cracks - very strange option in August 202. But all else fab.

Handy for a drink whist walking along Macclesfield Canal.

Signs outside saying food but no food on.. Otherwise a decent pub..

Came whilst visiting family, it was our second trip here and it didn't disappoint. The carvery was scrummy and the staff were really friendly and great with the kids. We will be back next time we visit

Once a great pub, now just an empty shell.

We stopped here as we’d moored up outside and I have to confess upon arrival inside I wasn’t overwhelmed however please don’t let this put you off. We were greeted by a really friendly lady who welcomed us and we both chose carvary. There was a choice of 3 meats, 6 veg and 2 potatoes and the portion sizes were great! The mash was “proper” and the veg included cauliflower cheese. We’d opted for a 2 course offer and almost wished we didn’t as we definitely didn’t need starters although they were delicious.I’d really rate this place as somewhere for a Sunday carvary and don’t be underwhelmed by the decor as the food most certainly makes up for it!

Some menu items not available. A decent enough pub right beside the canal.

good selection drinks two beer gardens food was not on When we visited

Nice staff. Good food.. nice sitting out next to the canal. Must visit!

Bit of a "local" place and poor selection of drinks but staff are nice

Tables were not wiped down. Limited menu even more limited when everything you want is not available. Food was passable.

I avoided this pub for many years as it had a bit of bad rep but since I opened my shop across the road i started calling in. The new land lady is really friendly and helpful. She often keeps a carvery for us as I don’t always finish work until later on. Just the little things like they had run out of Yorkshire puddings so she made us some fresh! They are so tasty the handmade mash is really good too. I’m also a bit fussy about what wine I drink as I have to avoid sulphites so they always let me choose one so I can enjoy a drink without getting unwell. The locals can be noisy but it’s entertaining and they are all very friendly even extending this kindness to come and pay a visit to my shop and support it I really like this pub now, they even do a dog carvery and dogs are always welcome Great local pub with great food and very good value.

Good little pub, nice and friendly atmosphere, only called in for a few drinks as been on a barge with the lads but would certainly return, pool table and a volt area at the back.

Only stayed long enough to have a pint of coke but the land lady was soooooo welcoming and lovely that the pub deserves 4* for that alone!!

We visited on a Sunday at around 1230hrs. The sign outside stated that Sunday Roast was available for £9.50. On entering we were greeted by a young lady who welcomed our dog before accepting that we were there. We were very pleased that so much fuss was made. We ordered or drinks and were directed to the servery at the far end of the room. Martin, the cook, asked us what we would like and talked us through the options. Three types of roast, we had one of each...and six different vegetables besides mashed and roast potatoes. We were both stuffed when we had eaten. The dog received two dishes of off cuts which he demolished in record time.We went back on the Monday evening and got the same sort of greeting. We ate again and I say now that both Sunday and Monday meals are under priced.We intend to return!!!!

I note all the reviews here are rather old. We were a group of 5 hungry narrow boaters arriving at 6pm in the pouring rain after a long, cold, wet day cruising we were ready for a hot meal and a couple of beers. Ominously the canal side door was locked but there seemed to be some movement indoors. Going round to the front door we found 3 lads inside, replying to my query they said they were open but could only offer to make us a sandwich. Too late to move on we moored and made our own sandwiches on board. They really should update their website which clearly says they offer food 4-8pm. A real disappointment for us.

Very click, felt uncomfortable

Went for food which we'd been looking forward to as it's normally good value. But after we arrived and ordered our drinks we were told there was no chef and so no food! Might have been helpful to tell us that before we paid for drinks. We ended up walking along the canal to the King's Head which was much better experience.

Great atmosphere and customer service x

Only good thing about this place is the location.

Went in when they had chef problems. No pineapple, no chips. Bar staff ,coop chip shop. Cooked the Gannon and peas. Customer service. Well done

Food was a bit sad. Friendly enough

Made me and my dog very welcome!

Wonderful carvery meal, can't beat it for the price, staff were great

Just popped in for a pint of Guinness!

Vegetables are a bit overcooked :-(

Nice out of town pub. Selection of hand pulled beers and food.

been twice mid-week during September. excellent value and plenty of freshly prepared food. Only one real ale on last time (old speckled hen) but it was a lovely pint.

The Puss in Boots is a pub in Macclesfield. It is on the canal and does have outdoor seating next to the canal. Sadly it was cold and very wet the September day we visited and were unable to use the outdoor setting. The menu at the pub is very basic and the vegetarian burgers we ordered were exactly that a microwaved vegetarian patty on a bun - that is it!!! There is a reasonable variety of beer on tap and it is reasonably priced.

Always good value, well presented and tasty

We went with the family to end a lovely trip on the area. The staff were great with the kids and the food was lovely. The only downside was parking, we had to park miles up the street which wasn't great in the rain.

Nice pub situated on the canal out side seating food available

Cherell and I (Mr and Mrs Skirvin) had our beautiful Wedding reception here at the Puss in Boots The staff worked tremendously hard and we're curtious at all times. THE RED THIA CURRY WAS BEAUTIFUL AND THERE WAS PLENTY TO GO ROUND. puddings were splendid. Food also cooked for unannounced guests Debbie the manager was fantastic and the beer was in fine fetal. Fantastic atmosphere, was friendly and sociable being a small venue with a quiet chill out tap room. The recedent DJ made the evening flow with fun and games A GOOD TIME HAD BY All with local accommodation for those who travelled from afar THANK YOU PUSS IN BOOTS FOR THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE!

The pub was dead, I've seen more life at a wake. The drinks were the most expensive of any pub we have visited during our two canal cruise. We will not return.

We didn't eat so I can't comment on the food but whenever I've visited this pub the staff have been friendly enough and it is in a very good location.The best time to go is when the weather's fine and you can sit on the tables by the canal.Inside is a bit strange, lots of doors and rooms; we once did the pub quiz here, a fair while ago and it was very good.Definitely worth a trip, especially on a sunny day.

Good pub. Good food and drink with a mixture of things on the menu. Nice to be able to sit outside by the canal when it’s sunny

So we went today for Sunday Carvery. The menu on the table stated beef, pork, turkey or lamb. I had a look at the hot plate and found 2 tiny little joints dried to buggary do we thought we would wait until they brought out new joints. They didn’t so I asked? I was told the joints left where gammon and lamb (never seen lamb look like what I saw!) and that they were cooking more beef but it would be an hour and a half!! Steer clear people!!

First impressions having never visited weren’t great, the pub is clearly in need of lick of paint and refurbishment but on arrival staff seemed pleasant enough.
