The English Restaurant in Cheshire West and Chester

Laura's effervescent charisma has been a huge loss to Handbridge since Meltdown's closure, but will no doubt be a giant gain to whatever comes next for the (former) Toastie Queen. I say former, as there's one final chance to taste her magic creations before the apron is hung up for good at fellow Chester indie scene star That Beer Place on Foregate St tomorrow, which I wouldn't miss for all the cheese in Cheshire...

Originally we had booked somewhere close to a venue we were attending. However on arrival the accommodation was not as expected and we needed to find somewhere else to stay. We contacted 32 Torporley and spoke to Ben who sorted us out with a room. On arrival Ben couldn’t have been more helpful. The hotel and our room was amazing with everything we needed. The complementary snacks and cereals were a nice touch. All the staff we met were very friendly. We were unable to sample the restaurant food as we were attending a concert however we will definitely return in the near future. Highly recommended 5*

Sabrosa comida vegetariana servida, porciones de buen tamaño, pero se sentía falta de atención al detalle. Aunque la comida fue agradable, hubiera sido bueno tener remolacha y un plato principal de hornear de coliflor con más textura y color, por ejemplo, nueces en el plato principal y servido con pan crujiente, y el plato principal servido con muchas verduras en lugar de una pequeña porción de ensalada de col pálida. Mi desierto de lío Eton también tenía muy poca mezcla de ciruela, que también me pareció decepcionante. Como grupo sentimos que había muy poco personal sirviendo y, por lo tanto, no parecía tener tiempo para preguntar cómo estábamos disfrutando nuestra comida, etc. y tuvimos que esperar un tiempo considerable para tomar té / café, momento en el que un buen número de comensales había dejado.

Great atmosphere fantastic selection of beers wines and cocktails food is amazing and the staff are very friendly highly recomend a visit
