swinging witch in Cheshire West and Chester - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Very clean good beèr good priced

After drinking (and working here) for the last 3 years on and off I honestly have to say what a pleasant place to walk into under the new management. Fabulous lady, very welcoming. The pub was so clean and smelt lovely. This will be my new local once again 😊

Me & my finance had a great time in here last night! Bartender was great, think his name was John? (If you see this mate I’m sorry we forgot your name 😂) service was top quality, prices are really good & great vibes! We’ll definitely be back for a few!

Bar staff very polite and helpful 😁

Good beer.no food.cheap.love it

No bar snacks or craft ales. Dissapointing.

Minus nearly £1k in my pocket over all after this place. I used to love this place to bits as a doorstaff. However I was left with no wage even though on appeal of Landlady I managed to changed the company I work for to be able to work there further. Unfortunately my trust is too big for some people and was left with no wage. Sadly don't recommended too deal with workwise.

I came here on Saturday night, was playing on one of the fruit machines. I had £36 in my balance at the time of me playing on some free spins. I hit a jackpot of £100 and after this happened the machine froze. A manager then came over to speak to me and said if you want it sorting then ring the number on the side alternatively write your number on here (some till roll) and we will get the maintenance man to ring you. I’ve rang the company and they said the machine doesn’t belong to them it’s rented out to the pub. So you will need to contact them. After 3 days of ringing and no answer to the pub I rang the brewery. Now they are saying that they need me to wait until next Wednesday (20/12/23) for them to investigate this further. I won the money fair and square and it now seems they don’t want to pay it to me. I WOULD PROBABLY AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

Brill cheapest place in town for a scoop

Reasonably priced and a good atmosphere for a quick pint 🍻

Went in for a Late drink Bar staff dressed In Octoberfest uniform and really amazing so friendly . Music got switched off around 11pm Dj was complaining about it and also about 15 people on the dance floor. Music apparently switched off because of the boxing. I asked the bar staff whether they could switch on in the background whilst boxing on and they said that it could be only authorized by the manager who was sat down watching the boxing. I went over to ask if we could put the music on whilst the boxing my was on and she said she had 200 people waiting to watch the boxing (she didn’t) and I said about 15 people were about to leave and she said she didn’t care . With that I said ok and left the area as im Not one for confrontation I just wanted to dance with the rest of the dance floor. About 10 mins passed and I the landlady came over to kick off at me to tell me if I wasn’t happy I was welcome to leave. in the time since we’d last spoken all I’d done is chat to someone I knew and rejoin my party for the evening, the landlady was very aggressive and shouting at me. Her bar staff randomly removed my drink which was 3/4 full and told me I could either leave or stay my choice but as she’d already taken my drink and at this time I waS talking to the lady I opted to leave. Such a disappointment I’d heard such good things about the after hours at the witch. As a fellow nightclub owner I’d never talk to someone the way in which I was spoken to. I’d avoid in future with a barge poll as the management at extremely discivilised and only interested in clearly their own gain and Statius rather than their customer

From what I can remember it was a great place for a few beverages, there was a top quality DJ and morish drinks prices and lavish outdoor illuminated beer garden.

Only popped for a drink, friendly staff, nice pint, and a fab pub dog!

Not a place to eat. A bit of drug dealing going on in the toilets and outside. AVOID!

Wszystko bardzo dobrze. Miła obsługa, klimat super. Polecam

Great pub and friendly staff Emma Smith is very cheeky

Cheap and cheerful , lively nusoc and a good age range so everyone welcome

Nice and friendly cheapest drinks in town

What an amazing pub to visit, Emma is an amazing landlady. Feel so welcomed when you walk In to when you leave. What a brilliant atmosphere…

A good pub with a good atmosphere.

Always a friendly fun atmosphere 😁

Big pub inside Lots of space. Good service Prices ok.

the staff are really friendly and polite and very helpful. are always help u with any issues or complaints they have really good entertainments

Popped in for a bit last night. Great vibe! Everyone seemed to be really enjoying themselves. Looking forward to going back soon 😁

Went in for a pint, great atmosphere, there was great food in back garden, really nice

Nice atmosphere, reasonable drink prices.

Plastic doorman as old as the foundations I think the carpet was laid down at the same time.

Absolute flea pit . Dirty glasses and urine reeking toilets

Karaoke on a Friday night is fab

Fantastic great people didn't have but it looked Fantastic and lots of empty plates

I visited to this place for first time with my couple mates and 👎🖕the mental Security👎 asked for ID and I showed him the pictures but still ask for physical ID, So absolutely no good idea to go there for night club.

It's the only real sports pub in Northwich. Lots of TV screens, covering every live sport available. Large drink selection at a competitive price, but very little real ale. It's pretty large with a beer garden and busy at weekend usually with live music in the evening. Serves some snacks.

I came to northwich to visit friends and they suggested this pub with very good reconmendation but on arrival I found the bar staff to be rude and miserable looking, not to mention that the staff looked as if they had either been dinking on the job or taking dugs. The toilets were filled with used drug bags. It was unkept and an all round dispointment. Me and my friends left early to take our custom elsewhere. Would avoided at all cost. Would say the only positive from the night is where I know I will not be going again.

Not a bad pint friendly atmosphere

Cheap drinks good staff clean and tidy good atmosphere good staff

This will be a long one! Went here for karaoke with a friend for our first night out out since the before times. Had an absolute blast. Probably would have felt that way anywhere, but the reasons for 5* are as follows: 1. I ordered the wrong wine in error. Took the sealed bottle back to the bar and the bar manager swapped it, no problem. That is above and beyond in my opinion, as it's a consumable. 2. My friend went to the bathroom and while she was there, a young man started harassing me. As a strong, middle-aged woman, I can handle this kind of thing, but he was relentless. I spoke to a young chap who was collecting glasses and within seconds, security arrived and removed the gentleman. They then checked I was okay and if I needed anything. 3. My friend was *ahem* unwell (as middle-aged women, we forgot we weren't as capable as we were in our twenties). The security guy had seen me with her, came and got me so I could take care of her, then helped my husband and I get her safely into his car (yay for partners who volunteer to be your taxi). 4. The owner of the bar spoke to me after the gentleman that had harassed me earlier was removed from the pub entirely for doing the same to someone else to make sure I was okay. That was so kind, and unnecessary, but made me feel like I was a valued customer, even though I had never been there before! Highly recommend the Swinging Witch for a bloody good night out out in Northwich. Just remember that you are not 22 anymore.

Great garden round the back and great atmosphere inside. All the staff are very friendly also.

Very, friendly and very busy. Great night out x

Fantastic pub with 1st class staff and landlady,Great entertainment and top people with drink in the place.

Great pub good music glorious pints

It's ok but it's weird now, I liked it when it was for older people but it's trying to be modern with a "dancefloor" that's too small and it doesn't feel the same. I'm 22 myself but I liked sitting in there speaking to people in there because some older people have interesting lives but it's all just people close to my age on weekends now and no-one wants to know anyone anymore they're just rude for no reason.

Came here for a drink with work on Black Friday. Only stayed here for one drink so rating off what I experienced in that time. Horse racing was on and pub was fairly packed. Seems like a typical blokes pub. Whether or not that's a bad or good thing I'll let you decide. :)

A great venue with a refreshing down to earth atmosphere. Plenty of seating and big screens for match days or for watching other sporting events whilst enjoying a drink or two.

Second best pub in northwich obvithe salty dog a clear 1st place never the less the witch is a excellent place to have a drink day or night good atmosphere and a good area outside to the rear we're there's many a fluzi lurking in the shadows going from side to side and tree to tree hence the name of the pub

Had an excellent early afternoon there recently. Couldn't do enough for you. Put the racing channel on that I wanted. Great background music and a very very good pint of Guinness at an excellent price. Thank you Emma and the excellent barman. See you soon. 😀👍😀👍😀👍😀👍😀👍😀👍

Went in on Sat night to watch the football. No sound was on due to the owner being a Liverpool fan (Man Utd were on) pretty petty. Awful non-descript dance music. Lots of lovely gentlemen powdering their noses in the toilets.

Had a few pints here watching the football before going for a curry. Great pub, with a really good atmosphere. Will be back soon.

Great place since taken over, renovated, new business model. Cocktails, live DJ, good music, and nice outdoor seating. Prices cheap close to spoons prices.

What a friendly pub. Good company, great staff. Nothing is too much. Great customer service. Emma is a fantastic Manager and host. Well done

That Ryan Tickle guy is really cool

Standard 'sports' pub atmosphere inside most evenings but exceptional beer garden. New Saturday night dj is excellent.

Excellent Place This Felt Very Welcomed.

Excellent Customer Service And Fair Priced Drinks.

New owners have transformed the swinging witch in to a nice place to visit in the heart of Northwich.

Great pub, good beer and fantastic staff

Staff really friendly and helpful, lovely town centre garden, well worth a try on a sunny afternoon/ evening. Didn’t try the food but reckon it’ll be great.

Very good great staff Very clean 👌

Well worth a visit,pub,toilets and outside area are lovely and clean,variety of drinks and the prices were spot on,food was gorgeous and staff were great.

Really nice now it been done up and prices are really good too. However there is definitely improvement needed on the service department. Asked if we could order food at 18:20 knowing that the kitchen closed at 19:00. They told us yeah and that somebody would be back in a minute. 20 minutes later nobody had come back so I went up to the bar at 18:40 and asked if our table could order food and they told us no because the kitchen was closed. Drinks also took half an hour to arrive at 1 point. Swining witch is a really nice place to go with a big variety of drinks at a reasonable price however needs improvement with the service.

Very friendly staff and management, food and beer are spot on. Tapas at 3 for £10 are great value. Highly recommended.

Comfortable. Great staff working hard for us, covid guidelines followed. Great sport coverage

Really done well doing it up, best pub in northwich right now. Nice staff and brilliant food and selection of drinks

Great pint and friendly atmosphere, great new owners always make you feel welcome, staff also very nice, just a pleasant place for a few beers.

Great new owners offering a variety of drinks superb, superb pizzas and a friendly welcoming environment

Really good food and respectful of coving regulations whilst using common sense 👍

Great place to go to in Northwich. One of the most long established pubs in the town. New management offering a great range of cocktails, a great atmosphere, great value and very clean. The Witch is back!

Very friendly staff and lovely surroundings, great pint 🍻

Really clean good table service and really nice new managers

Very friendly pub. And clean.

What a cracking pub!! Always welcoming and friendly, spotlessly clean toilets (which is very important) and they charge proper prices for excellent beer and wine. We come here quite regularly and enjoy every time. Thanks guys 😉

Good pint at a good price in a good pub to watch the football.

15mins to get a drink. so didnt bother asking if they did food. only 2 bar staff on , not freindly. local clientele even unfriendlier.

It's like a Den,Thick of Thieves hehe

Great value beer ! A pint of moretti for £2.90 absolutely amazing

Town centre pub. Plenty T. V. Viewing and good prices.

New staff very rude, used to be my local won’t be going in until she’s been sacked

my favorite pub in northwich. has been closed for a refurb and a change of ownership and the good news is the old landlord,s back, so expect the return of live rock bands on a saturday night and karaoke on a sunday. this is one of the busiest pubs in northwich and regularly plays rock music. plenty of car parking space on the public car park next door

No frills pub with friendly service and great prices

I love goin here. It's always a laugh and the staff are proper fun to chat with! Reasonable prices and decent selection

Beer good no food, pushchairs or screening kids. Good prices

It was ok bit no dart board which I never like

It's a pub. A damn good one. Not eating house or a family place but a pub. It does it well.

Great pub with good coverage of the football and very well priced pints.

Good pub this great beer friendly locals

24/7 club class taxi 01606 466 66

First visit for 30+ years. Old watering hole fondly remembered. Early Sunday evening visit spent enjoying 4 pints of excellent Genius with friends. Quite a few people in having a good banter with the barmaid made for a great atmosphere. Always a good boozer !

Good place to watch the football and have a drink and it's cheap

Good nice and looking forward to going again

Friendly staff and atmosphere with really good ale

Good beer good people smashing bar staff karaoke fun

Friendly pub, good prices, well kept beers

Great pub takes me back to the early 1990s

Good clean pub and they have sports and horse racing on 5 different placed TV's

A good basic pub though the need for security on a Sunday evening was a bit worrying!

Great place for watching sport. Loads of TVs in virtually every direction you look. Drinks are pretty cheap and service is usually quick. Good size beer garden at the back with heaters at night.

Good pub on Castle Hill Northwich

Very cheap beer. Give it a look if you are in Northwich you wont be disappointed

Good atmosphere and cheap beer great combination

Great pub with great prices. Friendly staff n great cocktails

A lot better since it's been redecorated
