Stock at the Pavillion, Congleton Park in Cheshire East

What an excellent place! Good menu, lovely home made cakes. Great decor inside this classic Victorian building. Dog friendly

My wonderful family and friends organised a surprise birthday party at Stock. It was the perfect place. Great atmosphere, first class service, great food. I couldn't have asked for more! Whether just popping in for a daytime coffee, a Sunday lunch or a celebration, Stock at The Pavilion deliver every time.

Absolutely the best place in Congleton staff,food, service, atmosphere Excellent Lisa,Emma and all the team work so hard Can not believe how anybody could give this place any negative reviews I've been going for years and not one complaint from my wife and I #highly recommend

We had our Family Celebration here (have already had my 50th birthday here couple years ago). It was fantastic, the place is stunning and perfect for any occasion, beautiful setting in Congleton Park. But the whole evening was made extra special by the wonderful staff, Lisa & Emma and their whole team worked tirelessly to make everything wonderful - food, drink and DJ, couldn’t fault it. I would HIGHLY recommend ‘Stock’. Xxx

Absolutely horrendous service, staff are very rude and unhelpful! I was completely ignored when waiting for a table, not one member of staff acknowledged us when we were waiting for a long time. When someone eventually came over, we were told no tables and an indefinite wait time? I wouldn’t mind but it wasn’t even that busy? Also there were 3 tables free at the time. It really would have been nice to have been acknowledged in the first instance and made aware of their lack of availability instead of wasting 15 minutes standing at the front door with 2 children. A woman with short hair then abruptly inserted herself into my conversation with the waitress disputing how long I’d been waiting for, totally uncalled for and unnecessary. Funny, I waited such a long time to be noticed by a staff member then all of a sudden, 2 come along to unwelcome me! If you’re going to the Pavilion take a picnic and avoid this place!

Amazing brunch fantastic location, owners are lovely my new favorite place, in the park great decor and cozy my type of place

Been a while since we had brunch at Stocks it wont be as long again. We had some family over the weekend and it is the perfect place for a Sunday Brunch, great vibe. Such a beautiful setting with warm friendly staff who look after you from walking in to saying goodbye. Varied menu covering all tastes and always served beautifully, can highly recommend The Banging Breakfast Burger!! Could not leave without some homemade sausage rolls and some Lemon and Blueberry Cake to enjoy at home later. Thanks to all the team at Stocks, see you again soon!!

We have been for several lunches of late with family and friends and I would just like to say the food is delicious, really very tasty indeed and it was all cooked to perfection! Even the coffee had great flavour. The staff go out of there way to cater for your needs and are all very friendly and polite. Thanks especially to Em and Lisa for making us feel so very welcome.

Had a lovely lunch with my parents on Friday lunch. Staff are helpful and friendly. I’m sure we will visit again soon and try out there spring menu x

Been here many times since my last review and called in this afternoon on a whim as my friend lives nearby. Was thinking coffee but came to my senses, it was Friday after all. Two pints of Peroni on the bench outside, overlooking the park in the vague sunshine. Lovely people, lovely place, happy days.

Fantastic food and coffee as ever, served by friendly and attentive staff who were upfront about the longer than usual wait. The wait is not such a problem when the food is so good and the place is so stylish.

Beautiful. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly. Meals are more of a snack but well presented and extremely tasty. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Would certainly recommend and go back

Went with my son for his first Father’s Day, together with his partner, my daughter and my sons 4 month old daughter, as usual all our requirements were met to the full, high chair space for the pram. Service and food exceptional, can’t praise or recommend enough.

Beautiful and eccentric interior, so much for the eye to look at while chilling out. Staff were really friendly and kept us up to date on orders and wait times while they were busy. Ordered mostly breakfast items, all were visually lovely and tested great. Ingredients tasted fresh and nothing over the top. Treated ourselves to the biscuits on the way out too.

Well this is my new found tranquil place to visit , I’m on my own , I feel comfortable having food and a Drink here, the staff are wonderful make you feel welcome and at ease, honestly the best place to visit , it’s relaxing and the food is great, sitting on my own in this lovely cafe is so relaxing and gives you such confidence thank you keep up the great work ! I will be back soon

Made a trip to Little Moreton Hall from Liverpool, the internet said this was the best place for lunch nearby. It wasn’t wrong, set in a beautiful park , very welcoming to adults, babies, dogs alike and doesn’t pack people in . Food amazing and very good value. Lovely, quirky setting . Thank you xx

Well worth a visit. Lovely cafe with an outlook over the park. Free car park by the river, cross the footbridge and you're there.

Discovered this recently near the end of a circular walk around Congleton and Astbury etc. It’s really good, if just a little quirky. (Like if you want an Americano with milk, don’t ask for one, ask for a white coffee instead, then you’ll get one). Anyway, the cakes were huge and the hot meals looked pretty impressive too. Some of the seating is totally comfy old sofas, some is 1950’s squeaky wooden chairs. Kiddie high chairs available. Decor is a little bit like Charles Rennie Mackintosh colliding with shabby chic, there’s coloured glass in the windows and stuff like old suitcases, radios, ornaments dotted about and even an old jukebox on the wall. Dunno if it works. Wait at front of house to be seated, table service (prompt enough), pay at the bar, friendly staff you can have a conversation with. Yep, love it, it’s good and we’ll keep calling in no doubt now we’ve found it.

I have got much to thank Lisa and her team for. They hosted the BEST 40th birthday party for me. Everything went so smoothly. Their service and friendly faces were outstanding. So attentive and help. They couldn’t do enough for us and made the night extra special. Excellent food & drinks. Highly recommended

Great breakfast overlooking the congleton park. Fantastic sausage butty with a good coffee. Get there early it los up and gets busy.

We went to this cafe, we had two slices of cake and some hot drinks. The cake was hard, well stale and was only suited to the bin. The whole experience was rather expensive and has put us off returning despite us visiting Congleton Park...

The service and staff have so much time for you. The food and presentation is absolutely amazing. Sunday dinner to die for.

Made a reservation through their website weeks ago to dine here Christmas eve.. Response was fast which was great. Great food considering it was a revised menu, shame it wasn't the one they sent me through email, everything we were going to choose wasn't available...

Clever adaptation of an old park pavilion. The ambience is twee but rests on a cheerful, welcoming and efficient attitude of all members of staff. The food on offer is eclectic without being over the top and the portions are adequate but not over facing....

A warm welcome, excellent food at a reasonable price. Only criticism I have would be to leave a bit of a gap between starter and main course. Would recommend.
