This was a really nice place to pop in for lunch or tea, but unfortunately something has changed. They've obviously spent a lot of money on doing the old place up and to be honest it's very nice and they've done a really good job. Unfortunately that's it because we all found the food to be very mediocre and bland. Service was really slow and it was almost an hour before we received our food. I had a mixed grill (£20) which was so bland , there was just no taste whatsoever in fact the chicken, steak and gammon all tasted the same, just bland unseasoned meat. Son had sea bass (£18.25) and it was terrible, dry and bland again and to be honest it looked terrible to. Mrs had belly pork that was tough like rubber and my mam had steak pie with concrete pastry, she literally could not eat it and left it. We told them it was inedible but they weren't interested and said they would tell the chef. Reading through some of the reviews on here were not the first to have a concrete crust on the pie. This just tells me they don't seem to care as long as people keep eating there. This is the third time we've been disappointed here so we won't be returning. Maybe we're just unlucky but after talking to other people it seems we're not.

Have visited on numerous occasions and have never been dissapointed, however on this occasion we were highly dissatisfied. Rang and pre booked a table for 6 and was advised we could only have a two hour slot which was absolutely fine. The lady checked to make sure we wouldnt have any dogs so i assumed we would be in the restaurant area. However when se arrived at the booked time we were told there was no rable in the restaurant and were sat on a high table in the dog area. The service was really poor and the food only adequate, vegetables were cold and raw and very small portions seemed to be regulars and customers in the restaurant were attended to first. We would certainly not recomend to others and will not visit again

I tried this pub on the recommendation of a friend as it was dog friendly. I’ve no doubt it is dog friendly. Though there’s an absence of water bowls. The car park isn’t designed for disabled people and I couldn’t find a disabled parking spot. I do have a blue badge. Need my door open fully to access and exit the car. So getting in and out was a bit painful. After that, approaching the bar, I ordered my drink and asked for the vegan menu. The barmaid had to ask another member of staff where the vegan menu was and was promptly told, “it’s on there“, the other staff member pointing to the menu. I read through the menu to find the option of a spicy bean burger. (It was all I could see at that time). When I ordered, I was asked where I was sitting, I had literally just walked into the bar. I was advised there was a spot in the far corner which would mean walking past numerous people with my dog. Instead, I suggested I sit in a chair close by which was being vacated by the people already there. The staff member acknowledged this, could see the table and the mess on it. Having seated myself, with my drink, eventually my food arrived. However, my table hadn’t been cleaned. There’s been plenty of time and was in direct sight of the staff. So my plate was placed among the empty plates already there with the empty glasses and various wrappers from sweets that the previous people had been eating. As stated I opted for the spicy bean burger. I often cook my own food and have a “in case of emergencies” supply a frozen food in my freezer. This burger was like what you would get from a superstore through the frozen department. It wasn’t freshly made. (£2:49 for four I think? Around 60p per burger). It was poorly heated and certainly wasn’t spicy. It was as bland and tasteless as my ex girlfriend. At £14:99 I’d expect something a little better and not frozen or heated in a microwave. The centre of the burger was mushy. I very nearly had a ‘Gordon Ramsey’ moment. I take my time eating, not excessively, just a normal pace. My table as I said hadn’t been cleaned, yet soon after I finished I was approached and asked if I wanted anything else. So my plate was taken away and the rest of the table left. I don’t finish my drink. I just left. If you’re vegetarian or vegan don’t bother. I could have called into a chippy and thrown a burger in the oven. It would have been better cooked. Staff might be over worked and underpaid? Certainly something up. I’ve been to happier funerals.

Great food, beautifully cooked at a good price BUT we were there Thursday 13/2 for 2.5hrs and only able to get our initial, and then one further round of drinks with a three course meal for a table of six. We had to ask twice for the second round to be brought. Even my mum, who drinks like a mosquito, was left with an empty wine glass for an age. The rest of us were dessicated! For our main course, we had to get our own cutlery from a neighbouring table, and then we had to go walkabout to ask someone for a dessert menu. The food was served by one poor (overworked) fella working on his own and 3 other staff pretty much standing at the bar chatting. On a quiet night like this, I would have expected a little bit more attention. It was pretty cold inside too, several of our table had to eat with their outdoor coats on. Posting, because, with a little attentiveness, it could so easily have been MUCH better and I'd really like this local pub to do well!

Friendly staff and service was great. Proper home cooked food with very generous portions. The steak and ale pie was delicous, full up with huge chunks of steak and the gravy was devine. All round the food was perfect. Thank you

Usually food is okay here, not exceptional but okay. However two of us ordered steak pie on a recent visit. The pastry was rock hard and meat inedible . It was so tough we couldn't even cut through it. We were given an apology when we gave some feedback to back to waiter but not offered any discount or alternative food Wont be back until it improves

The Venue This pub/restaurant is just off the A167 and not far from the A1 for anyone travelling. It’s very well done out inside with a more theme but keeping local roots at the focus of the decor The food The starter I choose Doreen’s Black Pudding, it was absolutely delicious, the leek and smoked bacon sauce works really well with the poached egg 8/10 The main I went for the double one burger. The burger was spot on. Meat cheese and bacon is simple but this is done so well. I really enjoyed my main The staff This was the only let down to the meal, our order wasn’t taken for atleast 35 minutes of being in the venue (which wasn’t too busy). The drink I ordered had to be chased at the bar even though my server and 2 other staff were having a break by the till. I have been to this pub before and had outstanding service so I am hoping this is an isolated incident. Recommendation I would and do go back most weeks as this is a local and have recommended to family and friends

Just called in the Chester Moor as the Sticky Wicket was closed today, driving past we noticed they were “dog friendly” so we doubled back and called in, so pleased we did. There was 3 of us and a dog, what an absolutely fantastic meal we had, the quality of the food was amazing, we had 3 mains, 3 Deserts and two rounds of drinks it came to £68, I asked the girl if I could check the receipt as I thought they had missed something off!!! She said the deserts were only £2 each on a Tuesday when you had a main meal, honestly they were beautiful, well presented and lush…we will definitely be back, another fantastic dog friendly pub

I visited your establishment earlier today with my wife and 8 year old son. We arrived at 4.45pm looking forward to grabbing a quick bite to eat to end what had been a lovely family day. We sat down at a table which seemed to be available , to be then told that it was reserved from 5.30pm onwards , to which we said , we were only wanting to order main courses so we would be mostly likely finished before 5.30pm , or alternatively , we would be happy to sit elsewhere. The member of staff who spoke to us said that there was no availability for 3 people unless we were prepared to wait approx 30 minutes , however there were various other tables in the bar and front part of the restaurant area unoccupied, however, no alternative was offered. We visited only last week , and had a lovely meal and enjoyed the experience and although we no longer live local after moving away from Chester le street circa 6 years ago , we thought we would make the journey to call again, however todays experience was extremely disappointing as we were made to feel not welcome, with no effort to offer an alternative to accommodate us. To say that we were disappointed , doesn’t even come close, especially as we we so pleased with our visit the week prior. If there’s any advice I can give , it would be to ensure your staff are more attentive and show a little more interest in trying to accommodate your customers.

Called In today for a meal with my family, it was my husbands birthday and we thought why not go out, well we won't be back in a hurry. Ordered the chicken curry it was like eating powder so I asked if I could change what I ordered , paying the bill and they charged us for both meals even though the first one was vile. Not a single person Appologised they just seemed annoyed at me, no one smiled either other than the lady who brought my daughter her food but once I complained she proceeded to avoid our table and gave us the cold shoulder. I don't like to make complaints however the curry was literally inedible. Making someone pay for your mistake twice is disgusting. Won't be back.

My husband ordered hunters chicken and the chicken was a think slice or processed chicken, around a 1/2 cm thick.

This pub has been updated to a good standard and offers a selection of real ales as well as the usual lagers. The food is ok for the price although my burger was on the small size and, for an extra £1.47, came with undercooked, mostly fatty bacon and a thin slice of cheese. Could really do with table service rather than having to order everything at the bar....particularly for those eating outside. UPDATE. Sadly the service has remained slow and poor with the outside seating area really in need of some TLC. Didn't stop for anything to eat due to this.

I approached the bar and was going to ask for a menu when the waitress said where are you sitting? And I said outside I was told abruptly you have to pay now if you're sitting outside and so I paid and then I was giving a knife and fork wrapped in napkin so I took it and walked outside and noticed there was no welcoming to the tables. There were no condiments it looked like a garden that was a bit absconded not at all welcoming for guests and so I waited for the meal which arrived no offer of any condiments so I asked for salt and pepper and I got it , Food consisted of stewed beef which was very dry and hard And lacked the beef flavour I didn't say anything. I doubt whether anyone cares whether I enjoyed my meal or not because I will work out the same way as I walked in and I am a regular at this restaurant. I was disappointed today.

Traditional meals are at special price 2 for £20 during the week ,as only one meal was from this section they obviously presume that 2 would be ordered and cut back on quantity to reflect the price a very small piece of fish for full price of £14.95 Staff member was very friendly The final disappointment was to find out we had been charged £11 each for two large glasses of wine!!!! which we felt was extremely greedy for what is basically a local pub

Not been here for many, many years. Probably over a decade. Had a few recommending Sunday Lunch here to me, recently, so we booked and called in for one today. Excellent! I had the beef. Delicious. I'm really fussy about meat and any fat, gristle or rubbery texture instantly puts me off and means I won't eat the rest, but I devoured my 2 thick slices. Husband had the meat medley. Came with tasty and substantial selection of side vegeatbles, large yorkshire, as well as mash, a roastie, a parsnip, pig in blanket and stuffing ball and gravy plus extra gravy. Fair prices and looking at the menu there was a good section of other dishes too. Would loved to have tried dessert but was absolutely stuffed, following the Sunday roast. Service was good. Prompt and polite, as well as checking in that everything was OK. Definitely would recommend.

Came here on the Sunday of the bank holiday weekend for a meal with the children and the dog. Very nice pub with very accomodating staff. Food was lovely and great value. I would definitely recommend.

Here with old work colleagues for the 2nd of my 'big' birthday celebrations. We all just had mains as there was a birthday cake to be shared at the end. I chose the lamb's liver with veg and mash which was good but very filling- just as well I didn't have a starter. They let us have an extra table for pressies and produced lighter and huge knife for cake! Nice staff, outside beer garden and good sized car park.

The interior was lovely & clean & the staff were friendly. The menu was very restrictive for anyone looking for a gluten free option. I managed to choose a Sunday roast, however there was very little on the plate when it arrived in comparison to my friend’s roast. I was charged the same price for have the portion. I may return for a drink at some point but definitely not for food. It’s not value for money if you have dietary restrictions.

Fab food and service. There was 6 of us for my daughter's birthday we all enjoyed the food not one complaint. Have to say my steak was delicious seasoned and cooked to perfection (medium). I do like to try different places around where I live and this one is now up there with the best I have eaten at.

Came here after a visit the week before when I noticed the food being served. Straight away I knew what I wanted. The mix grill.... So mix grill, liver bacon and mash for the missus, a berry crumble ,a white wine and a pint 50 quid. Unreal. A collosal amount of meat. Rump, gammon, pork chop, sausage (4), chicken, egg, onions, mushrooms and a tomato. Or and a bowl of chips. I couldn't finish and neither could the wife with hers. Could have been 5 stars but I think we made the mistake of going in last orders around 8 o'clock so chips were overdone. Other than that spot on.

Great food. They have a lunchtime special, you can get 2 meals for £19.99. Hubby had fish, chips and mushy peas. I had chicken parmo, chips and salad. Great meals. Don't know how they do the chips but they were the best we have had for a long time.

Have gone there since it opened, used to be very good in all respects however in past few months it has certainly gone down market. Coffees pretty poor and often cold, staff are fair but the place is dirty with cobwebs and dust everywhere. Requires some sort of screen on front windows as sun shade.

Awful visit yet again and definitely won't be back. Paper cups yet again..all change in 50ps (bank very close) filthy cafe, all rubbish on tables, hardly any cakes on display, rubbish on all tables outside. A huge embarrassment to the Costa brand.
