The Coast in Cheshire West and Chester

We're regulars at The Coast. Food is exceptional, every single time. Genuinely fantastic Italian food. Really friendly and helpful staff too. Sunday roasts might just be the best around. Only annoyance is the forced addition of a tip on the bill. It's up to me what I want to tip, not you.

Attentive staff, well managed and knowledgeable. Lovely choice of food and decent portions. Majority available as GF option so no compromise required. Our starters and mains were lovely. The bouillabaisse was delicious and full of sea food - so will have that again. Atmosphere was fine and they haven't crammed in an extra 10 tables so for us it was ideal.

Amazing food, fabulous service, thanks very much, will be going back asap

Wow genuinely one of the best meals and overall wonderful experience going out for a meal that I've had for ages 😋 Staff were excellent food was incredible and lovely portions!!!

I was looking for a Mediterraneanstyle menu and the fish on Coast's menu was excellent. Unusual dishes beautifully executed.. Creamy mushrooms could have been in thicker sour dough... thats my only suggestion...not a criticism. Mains were delicious and fresh. Sweets were amazing I had creme brulé which was just fabulous and the size of a saucer which was a bonus!! The tiramisu was delightfully fresh and tasty.

First time I visited here and we were not disappointed. Beautiful food, friendly staff and lovely atmosphere. The decor is beautiful, spotlessly clean. We will return and recommend.

Fantastic A+++++ Nothing more to be said Lobster ravioli The Best 👌

Fabulous place, lovely food and great service 👍👍

Friendly staff and food good. The main feedback is the lighting, it was like walking into a hospital it was so bright! It can make or break an ambience and sadly it made the restaurant appear quite cold. It’s an element as important as the food and forms part of the experience. If you make small change and get that right it would be perfect.

Excellent food and service. Will be going back soon with friends and family. Friendly welcoming staff. Delicious menu. Consistently high quality food and service. Very comfy seating. Highly recommended

Wonderful experience as always. Lovely food, great friendly staff and wonderful service. This place is consistently good, we drive an hour to eat here and it is worth it!

Excellent food & service on a Friday lunchtime. Second visit on a Wed lunchtime. Lovely 3 course meal. Very friendly staff.

We had an amazing meal at Coast last Saturday! The service we received was fantastic- from the greeting at the door right through to the end of the meal, all the waiters were fantastic, including Molly the manager who was brilliant with us. There was 5 of us and we all enjoyed our starters, mains and deserts- The food was amazing, the chefs are a real credit.

We visited yesterday evening, table was pre booked. Nice, spacious and not on top of each other. We had muscles and prawn pilpil to start and the lamb rack for main, all of which was absolutely lovely, incredibly tasty so we thoroughly enjoyed. The service is also incredible- strongly recommend a visit.

Had a fabulous meal at the coast last night. The food was superb and well presented. A lovely atmosphere and very clean. The staff were friendly and very professional. It is obviously very well run. Would certainly go again.

Having dined at the Edgerton Arms a few times and been very impressed, we were intrigued to try The Coast as we understand it is owned by the same person. We checked the menu and saw that it is varied, with some interesting dishes and prices that are not out of the ordinary. So we went and were not disappointed. The restaurant is smart , but not pretentious. The serving staff were all very friendly and efficient. Our dishes were beautifully presented and very tasty. We can particularly recommend the rosemary and sea salt pizza bread. It was thin, light and flavoursome - a great start to the meal. It's no wonder the restaurant was moderately busy on a Tuesday evening.

Excellent food and attentive and delightful staff. Always a lovely experience at The Coast.

Can't get passed how bad the tomato sauce was with the seafood pasta it was ridiculously sweet. Nice place but you need to get the basics right.

Best Italian for miles around. Staff couldn't be more friendly or helpful. We all loved our meals and will be back. Cheers, David, Marbury Camp and Lodge

Last minute decision to get lunch on a Tuesday in Tarporley. Friendly staff, great service and tasty food. We’ll definitely be back!

It has yummy pizza but the toilets are old fashioned and hard to flush. Service was good and the restaurant was modern and the tables were clean.

First time visiting. Very lovely meal, with friendly and attentive staff. Nice touch that they spotted it was a birthday meal and brought out a 'sparkling' desert.

We ate here with friends as a party of four. All dishes were lovely and enjoyed by all. Ambiance is lovely and a good night was had.

Had one of the most delicious meals I've ever enjoyed here! Came for a lovely lunch with a close friend, the staff were so friendly and helpful! I can't wait to come back!

Spacious restaurant with modern decor. Great service but both our fish dishes were overcooked. The teriyaki salmon was underwhelming and overpriced.

Decided to try The Coast after reading good reviews and were not disappointed. Friendly and knowledgeable staff advised us on the menu. Food was delicious especially the T-bone steak. Wine also very good. We weren’t rushed at all. Great atmosphere on a Friday evening.

Excellent meal and a very enjoyable evening. We booked on the basis of a recommendation, which didn’t disappoint. A fabulous menu, beautiful food, excellent service and all in all a great evening. Food of the highest quality and a menu that leaves you spoilt for choice. I heartily recommend and looking forward to returning.

Good service attentive and freindly staff. Food all arrived at the same time. Great tasting fresh produce. with a good and varied choice.

Very disapointing. The food was average, not a lot of variety of choice on the menu, staff who served at the table, indifferent. Continually trying to get you to buy more drinks.

Great layout, friendly staff, the food was excellent and quite reasonably priced. I would recommend them if you are in the area.

Visited coast on a Saturday evening , the place was really busy which was good to see. The food was very good we both really enjoyed it. Service was great! Definitely go again and a very enjoyable experience.

Very friendly and attentive service Wine list was good, very nice Ripasso and everyone cleared up the food, which was lovely

we had not eaten here for a long time but needed to try it out for my wife`s birthday dinner, with family travelling from Yorkshire & Worcestershire to join us. I think it was Isabel who dealt with us and she was both professional and friendly. My wife had mussels to start which were "great" and a decent portion but MY 5 lobster ravioli portion was very poor...5 in total....either the kitchen ran out or the lobster paste was very expensive. Again my wife had a great halibut dish. My tagliatelle + bolognese ragu was tasty but just not very well presented in comparison to other Italian restaurants. The ambiance of the restaurant was a little sombre perhaps because it was the day after Valentines so we did not come on the 24th with the family

Felt really nice and relaxed there. Food was good. The White chocolate semifredo was amazing.

Our thanks to your team for looking after us today. I appreciate everything you do especially the food. Our meals were delicious to look at and scrumptious to eat. Our thanks to your chefs Excellent 👌

Visited as a couple for my wife's 60th birthday, received a warm welcome staff friendly and helpful, starter's lovely, my wife's main really good I had the belly pork which was fine but just didn't work for me on the night, I did have a dodgy tummy prior to attending so wasn't at my best,staff did offer me another meal which was a lovely gesture however due to said upset tummy I declined, my wife had pudding with only be described as a ' firecracker ' ( see pic), accompanied by a rendition of Happy birthday, lovely touch, will definitely be back, thank you for a lovely evening, regards Bob.

Absolutely spot on as always. Fabulous Seafood linguine, King Prawn arrabiata, great wine and great service. Wayne and his lovely staff excelled as usual .

Visited for my step moms birthday. Food was delicious as always and nothing was too much trouble for the staff. One of my favourite places to eat and I always recommend it to all my friends and family.

Delightful place and food, good services.

Lovely very modern and clean restaurant, great food and wonderful service throughout. Free on street parking directly outside, all round a great visit and our first for a while, can’t wait to return!

A really beautiful meal. Would definitely recommend and visit again

Great welcome from staff. Quick service without being pushy. Food excellent. Lots of flavours and choice. Very responsive manager. Overall absolutely worth going to. Great.

First time in here and generally pleased. Atmosphere good but mid week so very quiet. Service excellent. Food OK. We all had a different pasta dish as it advertises as an Italian restaurant. None of them were particularly spectacular but we do intend to give it another go and try something that isn't pasta based. Couple of niggles. Print on menu very small so in the dimmed lighting it was difficult to read. Maybe younger folks don't have that problem 🙂 10% service charge added to bill. I hate this as though it is "optional" you have to be hard faced to ask for it to be removed and this can cause embarrassment if you are out with friends. Would have been quite happy to leave a tip but not in this way. If restaurant needs to do this why not be upfront, add 10% to the prices and pay staff a higher wage.

It was amazing food exceptional definitely be back

Love it in here! Food has been great every time we've been. Reasonably priced and one of our favourites.

Any place that Wayne Barlow manages, will run like a Swiss watch. Great food, great service. Rack of lamb cooked to perfection, carpaccio very, very good, Halibut once again cooked to perfection. Great service, great food. What else can you say?

New favourite place, staff and management are excellent. The food and wine is always brilliant.

Thought the Seafood Linguine was overpriced as a small amount of seafood in the dish. However the staff were lovely, attentive and friendly. The Restaurant itself beautifully appointed and tables nicely dressed. Perhaps I just picked the wrong thing to order. Lots of people on the table were very happy with their choices.

Lovely restaurant with great food and smart decor. Really enjoyed my steak. Will definitely return!

Incredible food, lovely staff and such a nice restaurant!! Definitely recommend and will be back! Thanks

Outstanding service by Wayne (as always) and colleague. Beautiful food. Excellent lunch menu that is fantastic value for money.

Good food. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Fantastic place the food and service are first class,, Wayne does a first class job. Great atmosphere not keen on the service charg

Visited here for lunch with friends to celebrate a special occasion. We chose the 3 course meal deal for approx £23.95 each. The food was amazing. Each course was so tasty and well presented. Couldn’t fault at all. The service from the female waitress was great and she was very friendly and chatty. The restaurant was clean and other staff also friendly. Would definitely recommend this place.

Our first time in Coast again for quite a few years and wow what a great choice . Great service (Zac) great choice of food on a really good menu (one Gluten free ) Atmosphere was great too , all in all I would definitely recommend a visit to the restaurant.

Gorgeous place, great host, amazing food, superb ambience. Had a lovely meal here last night to celebrate our 37th wedding anniversary. Everything was spot on, starters (carpaccio & meatballs), mains (lobster ravioli and spaghetti carbonara- best Ive ever had!) As for the dessert ( creme brulee) ...to die for. Followed by coffee and fine cognac. Big thank you to Wayne, who was lovely, so nice and friendly ... we will definitely be back soon xx

Having recently moved to the area my wife and I visited the Coast for dinner We had a superb evening - the food , atmosphere and staff were faultless Can’t wait to visit again

What a little find this place is. Excellent food & drinks. Excellent customer service. The staff are very welcoming and very attentive. Highly recommend and we will return. Thank you 😃🙌🏻

Really nice place, food is excellent.

Great food and lovely staff. Will go back.

Beautiful food, great atmosphere the service exceptional can't wait to go back

Decided on the Coast as the menu looked good. We were not disappointed with the set lunch menu and thoroughly enjoyed the food. Staff were pleasant and welcoming. We look forward to visiting again in the near future.

Can’t fault our visit. Excellent food - risotto I think the best I’ve ever had and fish perfectly cooked, Tiramisu was to die for! Very attentive staff with personality who made us feel very welcome for an 80th Birthday celebration. Thank you.

Travelling back from Hemel Hempstead we were looking for somewhere to stop near home. Googled an Italian restaurant in Whitchurch - as usual it was full. Googled restaurants around Tarporley and discovered The Coast. Parked in the High Street and walked up to the restaurant....

Our thanks to all the staff at the Coast for a wonderful meal and for looking after us. Especially Yum and Molly. Our meal was especially good because we had our granddaughter with us. She adores your dishes. ( Lasagna). Especially.

Food here is amazing and the staff are always polite. Only slight issue is no parking so you may need to hunt for a space nearby first, other than that this place is highly recommended 🌟

This is a good restaurant with nice decor (Slightly let down by the cheap looking plastic hooks on the front of the bar). We had fillet steaks which were perfectly cooked with excellent accompaniments. The broccoli side with chilli and garlic added to the enjoyment...

Great food. Been twice and and it does not disappoint

Evie and I met our dear friends Paul and Nicola for lunch today at The Coast We commenced with a bowl of olives We then all enjoyed a very enjoyable meals . Paul and I both enjoyed lobster Ravioli, Evie enjoyed her Monkfish Curry and...

Had the most amazing meal last night .Quality drinks served by Isla . Wayne and Jum great hosts . My favourite foods were King prawn pil pil and the mussels in a beautiful cream sauce . This is a real asset to Tarporley. Thank you...

Great with kids and love the variety of food.

In Tarporley there are many good dining options but at the Coast they are hard to beat , for choice of menus ,quality or value for money!. The Staff also enhance the experience with outstanding service and provide a warm welcome . Highly recommended

The food was amazing isla the who served was amazing and her Crew was nice food was piping hot and service was the best ever ..

Warm welcome, delicious food and efficient service. Loved our visit and would happily return if visiting the area again.

Over heard someone at my hotel to try THE COAST... We did and it was lovely everything we had was amazing

found the food good, the prices looked reasonable, however when the bill came my wife and I paid it thinking that it seems expensive. on getting home I looked through the bill in detail and noticed that an item marked optional service charge 10%. this...

Delicious food, excellent service and good menu choices

Lovely Sunday lunch . Pasta dishes and semi- fredo dessert excellent. Nice atmosphere at lunchtime.

We had lunch with fiends here recently and thoroughly enjoyed it. The food was superb, service was excellent and there was a great atmosphere. Highly recommend!

3 x lobster ravioli and a prawn pasta, absolutely loved by all. Nice wine and great coffee too. Service always just spot on.

Sunday lunchtime. They served a Sunday roast which is unusual in an Italian restaurant. It was fine. I had the sea bass with bravas potato's. ( Sorry the app won't let me spell the dish correctly ) The bass was excellent but the side dish rather unsubstantial and only just warm.

Dinner on Sunday evening - menu was varied and competitively priced with GF options available. Staff were attentive knowledgeable and friendly and the service was excellent despite the restaurant being busy. Really enjoyable evening - we're looking forward to visiting again with family who live locally.

This is a very welcoming special place. Great for lunches and dinners. The staff were very friendly and attentive throughout our meal. Our food was scrumptious. Chicken carbonara and for me the beef Lasagna. Excellent. Our thanks to you all. MickH

Not disabled friendly to enter. V disappointed with quality of the Italian food we were served. Sorry

Another visit to this lovely Restaurant after visiting parents. Recommend Nduja & Mozzarella Arancini and Beef Carpaccio for starters. Lobster Ravioli for mains is a must. As for Dessert,I would highly recommend White Chocolate & Raspberry Semifreddo. Staff were friendly. Will be back.

My sister and I turned up without a booking on a Saturday night, but were made to feel welcome while we waited for a table. All the staff were absolutely lovely!! Layout and atmosphere perfect for all occasions and company. Food was really nice. Will...

First time visit and we were not let down, excellent Prawn Cocktail starters, Steak and pasta dish were both very well presented and taste consummate with prices Our waitress Milly was superb, nothing too much trouble Will 100% be back in the near future

Me and the wife visited here on Saturday 8th October for our 1st wedding anniversary meal. Wow this place is a little gem we came across it by luck and so glad we did. The service , the staff , the setting every was perfect....

What can I say, this place is just perfection. Food & service can’t fault, the food is amazing, the service and the people are just lovely

Quality food, great menu with plenty of fresh sea food. Excellent service. Highly recommended and price sensitive. Highly recommended

Apart from exploding pint glasses... what a great place

This was our first visit & hopefully not the last. It was mid-week but by no means empty, which is a good sign. We had lasagne (me) and lobster ravioli (my wife), which were both delicious. We had tiramisu for dessert, which was evidently freshly...

Really nice food, with pleasant service

Food really nice but the service very slow. Putting an optional service charge on the bill??? Cheeky!

Took wife and daughter there to celebrate daughter completing her 1st year science at college. Immediately impressed as they had the ramp out to help with the wheelchair. Very friendly staff and the food was excellent. Service top notch and we will definitely be going...

Brilliant food and the staff so helpful and friendly. Definitely will go back

AMAZING food and service, can’t recommend highly enough

Wonderful late afternoon meal with family on Sunday, great atmosphere, spacious seating and most excellent food. We will be back !

This is a very good place with really lovely staff, a relaxed ambiance and fine food. My bruschetta and warm goats cheese salad were excellent, but my husband’s arrabiata was rather enthusiastically spiced,(very hot indeed) and this was immediately taken off the bill without comment...

food was great. a bit on the expensive side, around £25 for the lemon sole but it was VERY tasty and very big portion. I feel full and very happy
