Incredible proper home made food from a family run pub. Portions huge and the ginger sponge & custard was incredible. Worth a visit, proper good grub. Gorgeous vintage cars frequent and regular meetings. Huge outdoor area. Well worth a stop or extra mile to visit this place.

Booked today for my granddaughter’s birthday. Never been before but will definitely be returning. Food was tasty and hot. Staff very friendly. I thought my daughter had arranged for ice cream with candle to be brought out but she hadn’t. Staff heard us saying it was her birthday and took it on themselves to bring it out. Blew my mind as you don’t get folk to do something so lovely like this. Thank you all for making my granddaughter feel so special. So thoughtful.

An excellent afternoon family birthday party. Good food, good service, (to the credit of the staff), good company (credit to the family of course). What stood out to me is that seventeen people ordered seventeen meals but eighteen meals were prepared; the landlady (or a senior staff member) went to great lengths to make sure no-one had been charged for this kitchen error. Many places would have taken the money and said nothing!

We are members of Crewe and Nantwich U3a walking group. We booked a table for 10 people and Jake and Millie couldn't have made us more welcome . They opened up so we could use the toilets and order our lunch before the walk .They also kindly allowed us to leave some cars on their carpark whilst we undertook the walk. On returning for our lunch we were given a warm welcome..led to our set table complete with jugs of water and glasses..and a roaring fire. The food was served at the time requested and all members said they had enjoyed the food which was served hot and tasted lovely. We wernt rushed as its a large place so plenty of tables. Everybody enjoyed it and we would all come again. Thank you Christine and Celia

Lovely old traditional pub with cozy warm fire. Food ordered burger and hickory chicken. The burger was overcooked almost to the point of being burnt. The chicken was essentially a microwave dinner. Wish I had taken a picture to show how disappointing it was. The food used to be excellent.

Pub on a main road a few miles from a junction on the M6 so if you want a break, not at a service station this is good. Decor old fashioned. Toilets would benefit from more often cleaning. Staff were friendly. Food was excellent and their main dishes have reduced portions options if you want a light meal. Good idea. Had mango chicken which was delicious. Ask if you want salad instead of chips for example, they will do this.

Having been let down last minute at a nearby pub, we rang the bulls head and asked if there was any chance they could fit 18 people in for a 60th wedding anniversary in ten minutes time as we were around the corner. The staff were completely unfazed by this and welcomed us with open arms, the food was lovely and the service was absolutely brilliant. We cannot thankyou enough for accommodating us at such short notice and turning a disaster into a brilliant night, well done.

It's always a pleasure to visit here. Great homemade food, good-sized portions, well priced. They stock a varied range of local and independent brewery beers and lagers, as well as wines, spirits, and soft drinks. The newly refurbished beer garden and play areas are a real asset, especially during this prolonged spell of fabulous summer weather we're having. Plenty of parking available. Although, when very busy, for larger cars, some spaces don't allow much 'wiggle room' As for the hosts..... genuine, friendly, and welcoming, are just a few positives. Recommend a visit.

Finally revisited after a long time & ordered my usual meatballs & my friend had a halloumi baguette. They take card payments now, which they didn't use to pre-pandemic & the waiter was a tad snarky when we asked if they did. Food was served quickly & freshly-made. The meatballs could do with more seasoning & the side salad wasn't the best, but the chips were nice, hot & crisp. Overall, Konak hasn't changed much. It's still a popular place for lunch.
