The Egerton Arms in Cheshire West and Chester

Came in to try a new establishment on the way home. Didn't eat only had a drink. He welcome was warm from the young lad on shift. I did feel however feel a little rushed when we walked in it was automatically assumed we where eating which we where undecided. We sat down in the bar area which was pleasant but too open, I asked for a menu to browse and was told we will seat you in the restaurant I said no it's okay thanks felt the atmosphere was quite tense. Also poor selection of draught on offer.

Two of us had the fish pie which was very tasty but very small. The size of the dish the fish pie arrived in was a ramakin. Really not enough for a main course.

I thought the service was a bit bizarre tonight. Everyone seemed to be on wind down mode. We had to get our own children’s menu. The table behind us had to ask for condiments three times and in the end got up to get them. The table close by had to ask for bill few times. I was told a drink I wanted wasn’t on the menu but when I pressed on second occasion, turned out it was. We had to ask for the bill twice and in the end had to go up and get it. Never any apologies or explanation. It was all just a bit half effort. The pub was pretty quiet too and there seemed to be ample staff. Food was pretty good, pub is nice setting

Great pub, with lovely food and dog friendly. We stopped here whilst on holiday in Cheshire and on our way back from a day out. The food was excellent, we had seafood pasta, sea bass, haddock and chips and Cajun chicken burger, all of which were delicious. We were made to feel really welcome and served well.

We had a lovely time staying here it was for 2 nights for my partners birthday the rooms where very clean and comfortable, the the restaurant food was really nice, the staff where happy , and helpful , thanks for our amazing stay 🙂

First time for us even though it's only 20mins drive. Very nice menu, great efficient service, we both had pasta dishes and they were filling !! Lovely puds and a cracking pint of Eastgate Bitter. Very relaxed atmosphere, we'll be back

The food here is not cheap but it is consistently good and well worth the money. The fillet steak is particularly good as is the pepper sauce. Even the vegetables are special with the broccoli having a touch of garlic and chilli. We also enjoty the decor and the great service. We will keep returning.

Visited twice while on holiday. Menu was well thought out with authentic Italian theme. Delivery perfect. Service very friendly. Would highly recommend a visit.

Fabulous service and meal. The quality of the food was great - the prawn and avocado starter was the best we have ever had.

Back to former quality - great food in a lovely country setting, and fantastic team providing quality service. Big old country building set in a very convenient location, and with a nice garden including a place for the kids to play. Really good menu with a wide range of pasta dishes and meat / fish. Highly recommend for family and friends.

Excellent service, food, ambience and value for money. Everything you are looking for when you go out for a meal. Right from the start we were made to feel welcome and nothing was much too trouble. The menu was extensive and varied- something for everyone. Would definitely recommend. We will certainly be returning.

We called here today for our friends birthday meal. Not been here for ages!! Absolutely delicious food. I had the roast beef, it was the best one I've had in a long time!! Excellent service also!!

I needed somewhere half way between Shrewsbury and Marple. This was recommended. Arrived to a warm welcome. The pub is beautifully decorated with an airy space to enjoy your food. Too many restaurants today pile tables too close together but not here. The menu left us spoilt for choice. I chose the lamb shank Sunday roast. Everything was cooked to perfection and the portion generous. The coffee was served with homemade macarons and lovely touch. Light and sweet. The service here was exemplary. All the staff polite and couldn’t do enough. I would highly recommend this lovely pub. Will definitely go back.

Booked for an overnight stay on our way to South Wales When I booked asked for a quite room as had a 5 hour drive and had another 4 hour drive next day On been shown our room number 2 noticed we were in the front of hotel facing road and the traffic noise was so loud but thought it would stop later on Anyway went for a meal came back up to room which in its self was ok but the noise continued all night I know its an old building but surely secondary glazing could help Went down for breakfast when we came back up to shower no hot water from showe no matter how we tried Went to get help only person there was the waitress who had served us she tried but no joy then she tried another room again no joy on trying third room eventually git some water just enough for two showers I found it strange as we realised we were the only ones staying in hotel so to give us the noisy room when I requested a quite room I found to be shocking Ok now the ensuite which also was the smallest of the three we saw we could not open shower door if toilet door open and they badly need updated Ok now the good parts the staff and the food are fantastic We had a meal in the restaurant at night which was amazing and the service from the Scottish waitress was brilliant Also the polish girl who served us again brilliant really lovely and if it wasn't for her helping us out with shower we would have had a cold shower There was no orther staff available to help in morning Reading the orther reviews now I realise that the reviews left must be for the brilliant staff I gave never been so disappointed in a hotel room and ensuite as this and although hotel empty my request was ignored won't be back

Loved the refurbishment...Great menu and loads of attentive staff! A lovely friendly atmosphere! Excellent value for money

Cosy, casual bar area in addition to the main restaurant - loved it. Ordered the lunch menu steak frites for 16.95 and was expecting a rump steak. However this steak was DELICIOUS! Charred on the outside, pink in the middle, a simple garlic butter on top with clean fries and salad. Oh. My. God. Tasted so good! I had to ask what type os steak it was: a thinner cut sirloin, apparently. That explains why it tasted so good. Well done Egerton for not taking the easy path and just throwing a rump steak on the pan.

It was lovely stayed overnight the room was fabulous and spotlessly clean. The food was gorgeous and the staff were amazing so friendly and helpful. Breakfast was included and probably one of the best full English we’ve ever had. Fully recommended along with their restaurant The Coast in Tarporley 5* Jayne and Suzanne Little x

The staff were friendly, service was excellent, had Sunday lunch with family,great food.will be back.

Have used the Egerton arms for a good few years now while passing between north Wales and Kent, and were very pleased to see it returning back to the high standards of a few years ago, with Wayne and the team back in control, A nice range of beers, very good food on offer and great service, a lovely break in the journey.

Had an overnight stay here and we can’t fault it ! Fantastic value for money all the staff really welcoming and friendly and the room was spotless. Food was a little pricey but tasted outstanding and was totally worth it ! Breakfast was included in the price of the room and again fantastic and great portion sizes too ! Only 9 mile into Chester, so great if you prefer a quieter venue without any hustle and bustle. We already planning our next stay ! 100% recommend

Visited for mid-week lunch and was very impressed. Greeted by very friendly and polite staff member. The area was nice and warm. Food was excellent and served very quickly. All staff members were great and will definitely be going back in the future.

We haven’t been to this establishment for some time but as in the past we were treated to a fantastic lunch. A delicious duck dish. And a leg of lamb. Scrumptious. Our thanks for looking after us. See you soon. MickH

We met up with our son and grandchildren, and needed a room for the night not too far from Chester- we found the Egerton Arms and what a great choice it was!!. We arrived on Saturday evening around 8pm and were made very welcome by the staff. Nothing was too much trouble and they took the time to have a chat with us. Room was excellent. Unfortunately we had already eaten and did not try any food on the menu ( which looked great) Great selection of wines and beers available. Breakfast was excellent and cooked exactly as requested- and the young lady serving us was very friendly and very efficient. 👍 We would definitely recommend the Egerton Arms and stay there again. Well done to all the staff 👌 Lee and Sandra Williams

Booked a meal 1 to use our loyalty meal tickets & 2 to avoid all the trick or treat callers at home! Excellent food, great setting & pleasant staff. Love this place

Had a great experience, the food was excellent and the staff were attentive and very helpful. Top quality service and will definitely be back. Keep up the great work

Visited the Egerton Arms this week. Had a lovely time. Great food and service and the service charge has been removed

Visited whilst on holiday in the area with our children. We received a warm welcome & the service was excellent. The atmosphere & environment is relaxing and the drinks were good quality. Food came out in a reasonable time and was well made and tasty. We both had the steak pie and unfortunately it didn’t come with any gravy and the pie itself was a dry ish mix so this let it down a little otherwise I would have given a score of 5. I am northern so we do like our gravy! Desserts were delicious. Will definitely return when we are back in the area.

The old team back in place plus a good chef have brought the Egerton back. We enjoyed one of the best prepared and tastiest meals in our local restaurants for some time. A wide and varied menu , we were spoilt for choice. My monkfish was a tour de force, chipolata sausages tangy and sweet. Meatballs and lasagna followed, the ragu was rich and my meatballs were light and full of flavour. Well worth a visit.

I had a lovely meal Great service Great atmosphere Would definitely recommend this place Chef with brilliant food quality

Our continued thanks to everyone for making our lunch today very special. Keep doing what you’re doing. Regards MickH

Our thanks to all your wonderful staff for looking after us today. The salmon was excellent. As to was the Cajun chicken burger with chips. Scrumptious 😋 MickH

We had a great lunch here staff were very well versed in distancing and the place was spotless food very good the duck salad was particularly nice

Nos estábamos quedando cerca, así que decidimos comer. La comida era deliciosa y el tamaño de las porciones era generoso, ¡no había espacio para el postre! ! Mi marido dijo que era la mejor salsa de pimienta que había probado en su vida. El personal amable y las medidas de Covid en su lugar. Sin duda volveremos si visitamos la zona nuevamente. Gracias.

No se puede decir lo suficiente, la calidad de la comida perfectamente preparada en este establecimiento es excelente. El personal amable y eficiente que lo atiende en un entorno relajante se suma a la experiencia general. Seguiré recomendando The Egerton a los lugareños y visitantes por igual, me mudé a Farndon hace 18 meses y se ha convertido en un favorito local.

Nice pub and restaurant very good staff social distancing done well the food was brilliant,went with an antiques dealer friend from london he was very impressed thanks chef and staff will return 👍🍺✔

Después de muchos años de conducir de Birmingham a mis padres en el norte de Gales, finalmente nos detuvimos para comer algo un viernes por la tarde.Aunque era un menú limitado, uno casi se está acostumbrando a opciones limitadas, había muchas opciones para una comida completa o un refrigerio.Comí focaccia de bistec, que se servía con champiñones, cebollas, rábano picante, patatas fritas y una ensalada pequeña. El bistec estaba muy tierno y sabroso.Mi hijo tenía gambas y patatas fritas. Que fue una porción considerable. Su novia tenía la hamburguesa Cajun, que se veía increíble, y papas fritas. También tuvimos una porción de deliciosos aros de cebolla.El personal fue atento sin ser agobiante. Y qué bueno tener refrescos en vasos de 'adultos' en lugar de los normales de pub. El interior está bien cuidado y todo en buen estado.Después de 30 años de aprobarlo, definitivamente volveremos.

Ambiente agradable, bienvenida agradable.Visitamos el lunes y tuvimos tres comidas principales, el eglefino / patatas fritas y bistec y pastel de riñón eran porciones de buen tamaño, pero el pollo en salsa Diane era minúsculo. Venía con papas trituradas y brócoli de tallo tierno, desafortunadamente la porción de papa no era grande y el brócoli consistía en una pieza y otro tallo diminuto.Cuando la camarera se acercó a ver cómo estaba la comida, le dije que era deliciosa excepto por mi pollo, ella estuvo de acuerdo en que la porción era mucho más pequeña que las otras dos mencionadas anteriormente y dijo que esto se debía a que el pollo usado era caro. . . . esto no compensa la pequeña porción de papas y verduras y, si este es el caso, estoy seguro de que los clientes pagarían más dinero para obtener una porción decente. . . . . Me quedé con hambre después de terminar mi comida y le dije esto a la camarera. Desafortunadamente, lo que no ayudó es que puso los ojos en blanco.Debo decir que los postres eran deliciosos y compensaron mi decepcionante comida principal, si hubiera pagado el precio completo, no hubiera estado feliz de recibir una cantidad tan escasa de comida.

Other than the service the place is just average. The food is ok but it’s the surroundings that really need some money spending on as it all just looks a bit grim and tired and lifeless.

Simplemente un excelente pub, no nos podemos quejar en absoluto, nos instalaron en el último minuto después de un largo día y en coche, ¡estábamos tan cansados y hambrientos! Al principio parecía que no había esperanza de una mesa, pero luego el gerente miró y nos encontró una mesa ¡hurra! Como había un espacio de tiempo de 45 minutos hasta que la mesa estaba reservada. Gran servicio del gerente y todos los camareros también los filetes eran patatas fritas increíbles también no me puedo quejar de la comida en absoluto gracias chicos! ! Sr. y Sra. Williams x

Nice pub,friendly staff,coping well with social distancing measures,great little beer garden at the rear too!

Brillante. Al alojarnos en el aparcamiento, queríamos visitar aquí como lo hicimos hace muchos años. El personal fue excelente, nuestro servidor era Jodie. Sin embargo, todo el personal fue amable y profesional. La comida también era excelente. Las gambas al ají estaban tan buenas como las mejores que he probado en mi vida. Ambos comimos solomillo, de nuevo ambos cocinados a la perfección y muy sabroso. Servicio amistoso rápido. Cuando volvamos a ese camino, sin duda volveremos. Gracias.

Excellent food and great staff. Having tried a few restaurants in this area over the last few weeks we were delighted to find somewhere that is not only operating normally, but has very tasty food. Despite having a varied menu with lots of choice, my wife and I had fish and chips (guilty pleasure after eating carefully during lockdown). The fish was huge with tasty batter and a good portion of chips and mushy peas. We managed to sit outside on the decking to enjoy the warm weather.The location is just beside the main road so really easy to get to and it is in a lovely countryside location. The staff were attentive, friendly and efficient. Top marks. It is good to feel that we are achieving some kind of normal life again.

Staff very attentive. Good clean food. Lovely play area outside for the kids. Plenty of parking. Highly recommend

It’s rare I give 5 stars but The Egerton Arms totally deserves it.Well done!!A lovely evening in your magnificent and beautiful garden sipping wine watching the sunset after a wonderful meal. Everything was ‘just right’ the food was excellent quality, the fish was huge! Great, great value.But..the staff are really all excellent- professional, trained, competent, polite and they understand what excel service means.It’s also as lovely inside as out and is a place I really look forward to returning to.I hope it stays as it is because you guys really deliver!!Excellent.

First meal out with family for 4/5 months & it was delicious. Good menu choice, friendly staff, reasonably good social distancing between tables.

New to the area trying local cuisine from our home base of Farndon.The Egerton had been mentioned to me by a neighbour, but it far surpassed my expectations, lovely homely feel to the place, curteous staff, and the food well !! Just go, its amazing. We will return, again and again !

We stopped here for Sunday lunch and sat out in the beer garden. We had prawns to start with which were delicious and then opted for Sunday roasts, which hit the spot. The service was excellent and we will definitely return.

Called in without a booking got a very warm welcome from the staff. The food was very high quality and the wine good too. I would recommend a trip to this restaurant. Big thank you to kitchen for making the effort to produce a quality meal with tasty ingredients.

Good afternoon to you all. Hopefully you’re all keeping well. Glenys and myself are missing you all. And our lunch’s with you. Hopefully we’ll see you soon. Keep safe. MickH

Used to go here very often in the past decided to try again this week. Menu is very limited, too much emphasis on steak and fish .not even much choice of sandwiches.. What is it about the fad for pulled beef and pork! , my feeling is that it is a way of using cheaper cuts of meat and will never order it. It will be some time before we go again.

Thank you 😊 and Thank you for our lunch on Sunday the 8th March. Twas very busy as usual but you looked after us both throughout. Thanks Callam. excellent. A mains off chicken tikka and oven baked salmon. Gorgeous. MickH

Four out of five of the group had the traditional Sunday roast. All four meals were only warm and the parsnips were rock hard. Service was ok, but overall, we were all very disappointed.

Beautiful food ! Breast of chicken , mushroom sauce,broccoli really delicious. Also chicken tikka and burgers. Sweets good value

6 of us came to the Egerton Arms on Sunday for lunch.The pub is beautiful inside, very smart and comfortable. The food was absolutely stunning. We were all wowed by it, especially dad.The service was very friendly and efficient.I would definitely recommend this place and I look forward to going again.Thank you for a brilliant dining experience.

Our thanks for a wonderful lunch today. Chicken curry with a side of broccoli. Gorgeous. Small salmon with a side of cauliflower. Our thanks to all the staff. I think the manager is on his jollies today. Don’t think they even missed him 😂👍☃️🤔 MickH

Went there for the first time in many years,(the last experience was not good) this time 200% better, friendly staff, excellent meals, good quality, will definitely be going back

Staying five minutes up the road at Kittys Veiw Cottages. Booked a meal for four of us. Nice surroundings in the pub. The food was excellent and plently of it.The staff very friendly and helpful. Would return when in the area again

we decided to eat here on the evening and not at carden park.GOOD DECISION,the food was great with good service,also a lot cheaper than carden park.

We had dinner here during a training course in the local area.

Staying at the Caden park hotel so thought we would pop out for food 8 mins drive away and fair play the food was amazing, little girl had fries as she very fussy glad she did as she wouldn’t of ate the chips. I had a steak was cooked to perfection also my partner gammon he said was amazing. Highly recommend this place amazing mouthwatering food #daisyynysddurocks

On Saturday we had arranged a family meal at the Egerton Arms as it is half way between us all. We were a group of 4 Adult and 3 children. When we arrived we were met by extremely smiley waitresses who were very pleasant and even though we were early it was no problem seating us. The waitress kept coming over and asking if we needed anything which i thought was quite nice not the usual of having to try and find someone.

After all the large festive meals eaten during December its nice to get back to more regular food and The Egerton at Broxton more than fulfilled our needs.

Stopped here for food in the way home from a shopping trip to Cheshire oaks the food was amazing the steak burger was the best I have ever had, the staff were 5* would definitely recommend

We stopped purely by chance on our way back down south. Food, service and the place itself were all excellent. Highly recommended.

Not only are the staff amazing and friendly, the drink selection is amazing but the food is out of this world! If you have not been before please go and enjoy the amazing experience!

VERY busy.... good atmosphere, pleasant and hardworking staff. Pate starter looked and tasted fantastic. Eaton Mess dessert looked and tasted amazing. The Ham Shank main and vegetable side dishes also looked great however this was greatly let down by the sheer amount of salt... Yes, the ham shank itself was salty as to be expected but the gravy which covered everything left much of the remaining food inedible. If visiting for Christmas lunch (or likely any meal) I'd strongly advise asking for the gravy to be served separately. At least then if it is not to your taste it can be quickly remedied without much fuss.

We were a big party of fifty people ( club outing) staff where very welcoming and helpful the pub was busy . But the service ran very smoothly food was hot and very tasty would definitely return.

In no particular order , service quality of the food wonderful wine list, all first class A very friendly and professionally run establishment as a fair price.

Was staying in a nearby village and met family here for dinner, plenty of choices on the menu. Went for the Ham, Turkey and Leek Pie..... which tasted amazing!!! Staff were pleasant and friendly and nice atmosphere, definately worth a visit.

Had a family get together here over the weekend - the food was amazing, beautifully presented and lovely choices.

Thank you for looking after us both yesterday afternoon. Our meals were excellent as usual. I had the shin of beef. Gorgeous. My wife had the oven baked salmon which was lovely. But would have liked it with hollonday source ( spelling ).

My son and I went here tonight on spec and received a warm welcome from the staff.

Very good meals from fish and chips, pie and chips and also a fish with pea mash. Good beer as well. Welcomed meal on return from Cheshire Oaks.

Hicimos un viaje desde Escocia hasta el sur de Inglaterra aquí. ¡Qué hallazgo! Muy buen alojamiento: camas cómodas y baño moderno y reluciente con una buena ducha a ras de suelo. La comida fue excepcional. Tanto como sea posible de origen local (la carne de res y cerdo de granjas a la vuelta de la esquina, los huevos de la carretera ...).

Type of place you could spend all day and feel very comfortable and at home. Staff are all very friendly and knowledgable about their menu. I had the chicken pate, while mum had the chicken burger. Both very delicious. Will certainly be back

Called in here for a meal mid week as we were staying locally.This is a well run pub and restaurant, the staff are friendly and really efficient.

Llamado después de un viaje al cine en Chester, rápidamente acomodado por el gerente del bar y sentado rápidamente exactamente en el área del restaurante donde queríamos. El atento camarero se presentó muy cortésmente y pudo describir con confianza todos los artículos del menú de comida y vino, así como detallar otros menús que se ofrecen en el restaurante hermano Egertons Coast en Tarporely. Muy buena comida y vino en oferta en una zona de comedor muy cómoda y bien gestionada. En un área de tanta buena comida de pub, este es un lugar para probarlo con seguridad.

After a day out exploring the area we came across this place and decided to stop for dinner. It a wonderful place with friendly staff and serving great food, will certainly come again.

Visité el cumpleaños de mi madre y la comida estaba cocinada a la perfección. Llevamos un pastel y velas como sorpresa para mi madre y el personal se encargó de poner una bengala de fuegos artificiales en el pastel, ¡lo que absolutamente deleitó a mi hija! Muchas gracias por el cuidado y la atención que nos brindaron esta noche. Es mi cuarta visita en tantos meses y definitivamente regresaré. Gracias de nuevo.

We have visited this pub many times, good beer, good service and excellent food. There is a fairly extensive menu at reasonable prices and occasional offers and reward schemes

Sunny Saturday lunchtime in the garden. We had the Thai seafood broth, smoked haddock with poached egg, and mushroom ravioli with tenderstem broccoli. All were absolutely first rate, the only tiny reservation was that in the broth there were pieces of galangal and kaffir lime leaves that had to be taken out. But - it tasted excellent!!

there was 13 of us who all popped in on a Sunday tea time when it was very busy and the manager was great, very accommodating and put some tables together for us. The choice of meals for adult and children alike was great and lovely quality, ranging from steak burgurs. chicken, pies and scampi. The puddings were also delicious!

We stopped off at the Egerton Arms for a quick lunchtime bite. Our waiter, Stevie, was brilliant. He was knowledgeable and relatable when discussing the allergy menu and went above and beyond to help us with all of our needs. The food was lovely and reasonably priced. We will be going back again!

We called in here this Sunday lunchtime, we hadn't made a booking, it was very much spur of the moment but we were so glad we did call in.

The seafood platter never fails to impress. Staff very pleasant and helpful. Nice atmosphere and good choice.

I visited this restaurant with my son while staying at Carden Park. It was close by and I’m glad we chose to dine out of the hotel. I had king prawns and lamb shank to follow. My son had fish and chips. Absolutely wonderful. The staff were great and friendly. I would definitely recommend dining here.

First time here since the menu changes. They have a great choice of high quality food which is well prepared from quality ingredients.

We visited here for a quick bite to eat before driving back home from Chester. We only wanted something light so I had a tuna and cucumber sandwich and my friend had a burger and chips. We both really enjoyed our food and I was impressed with the amount of food I got for just over £5. The restaurant was very nicely furnished and the staff were lovely too! Definitely worth popping in if you’re driving past.

Lovely seafood platter for me and burgers for my friends. I have read the last review . I was hoping for chicken in a basket Not on the menu and the place was open all day till 9.30 . I think this is a different pub . But The Edgerton at Broxton roundabout was well nice . Glad you never had the chicken in the basket .My platter was brilliant and well worth the visit. Will be back soon . Thankyou

We are not local and were visiting a relative in the area. Booked a table on the day as we were only 15 minutes away. I called at 1310 and booking a table for 1330, wasn’t a problem. Great stuff!

Visited this pub as it was local to where we were staying.

Staying at near by carden Park, with some Australia family, we decided to try some pub food, we ordered four different meals from the menu, every meal was served and presented like some posh restaurants we have been to.Everymesl was cooked to perfection the lamb shank was a delight,we ordered from a fine selection of sweats, again present perfectly, and tasted excellent, if we travel in or around this area again, we would have no hesitation stopping again.

I've eaten in the Egerton Arms a few times and on previous occasions have always found the food to be excellent.

We booked to stay for the Rewind Festival that was cancelled - it's a gem of a place, lovely place in a brilliant location, with excellent food, hospitality and we just had an amazing weekend regardless of cancelled Festival - Ash was an excellent landlord and host, nothing was too much trouble - food was excellent and the locals were very welcoming - regardless of cancelled Rewind Festival we had a brilliant weekend - thank you and we will be back if we're allowed ha ha - many thanks and well recommended x

Great service and food. The lamb shank hardly had any fat on. There was a good atmosphere too. The only improvement I can suggest is to have some green veg with the lamb.

First time we've been for dinner, usually go for lunch on our way home. Good food reasonably priced in pleasant surroundings, helpful, friendly staff. The Egerton is a lovely pub / restaurant, with a nice outside eating area for when the weather is good.

The Menu in this restaurant is very good. Staff were very pleasant. Situated just off the main road but with pleasant views from the rear. Kiddies play park which can be seen from restaurant.

Our son booked a family meal before leaving the country knowing that this is 1 of our favourite places to eat locally, although the food was good as usual, the service on this occasion was quite poor which is very unusual. my glass had lipstick on it & my replacement drink hadn't appeared after 10 minutes so I had to ask for it, our son & girlfriend came straight to the table, no-one came to take their drink order after 40 minutes we called a waitress over to order their drinks & our food, then only 1 drink was delivered! After a long wait our starters came we then had a huge delay & in the end asked when our main courses would be served,10 minutes later we had our meals (arrived at 7pm, mains served just after 9pm). I have to say this was unusual, never had this problem here before but there was little in the way of apology.

32C belting humid heat yesterday on the evening before Car Fest North at Bolesworth - no real problem for me as I used to work in the Arabian Gulf - I enjoyed a very well cooked medium rare rib eye on my birthday - but the outstanding thing was that for my dining partner they especially created a cold tuna salad wrap from the lunch menu so she could enjoy her night out. Don't know of many venues that would do that! Probably why we always go back here for quality food, amazing staff, and great service.

Our thanks for looking after us yesterday for afternoon lunch. The Salmon starter was scrumptious. Excellent. My wife had chicken tikka masala. As usual it was great. I had the sea bass off the light lunches with a side of broccoli. Great. MickH
