The Farmers Arms in Cheshire West and Chester

My toastie was good, others said theirs wasn't, especially the spicy burrito which was stodgy, plain and bland. Service fab. We were early so it was quiet which was just fine.

Lovely pub with some traditional features from the 1800s when part of it was built. Exceptional staff and owner. Best guinness in the area and nice beer garden.

Nice team of people. The owners are putting a lot of effort in to making this lovely venue a great place to be. Breakfast was excellent.

Absolutely brilliant stay at The Farmers Arms. Stayed on a Friday night in our campervan and enjoyed their stonebaked pizza and quiz night. The welcome from the second we arrived was second to none and everyone was so kind. Thanks so much guys and can't wait to come back soon.

Farmers Arms to the rescue! Me and my partner had been at my friends wedding 10minutes away from The Farmers Arms and our air bnb for the night... we got dropped out of our taxi next to the pub and told the driver wouldn't take us to our Airbnb as he couldn't find it. We walked a mile up the road in the rain and couldn't find it so we went to the pub for help. We had bags and wedding flowers to preserve so the kind owners offered to keep the flowers in water overnight for us to collect the next day. They pointed us in the right direction and eventually we found our place for the night! The next morning we returned to the fresh flowers and help to get back to our car at the wedding venue. Although we didn't eat or drink here (the menu sounds lovely) we just wanted to say a massive thank you to the most kind pub owners we have ever met! They cannot do enough for you and friendliness goes a long way! Thank you x

What doesn’t this super friendly pub do? Not much ! The lovely couple who run the place do not stop . Nice pint, open for breakfast and lunch, car boots, open mic, live music, quiz nights. I had a nice stop over midweek and was well looked after. One ale on and a games room. Do ring ahead to see availability for vans. I think they provide 1 hook up too. Handy for a walk around “little Switzerland “ will Be calling back. Highly recommended. 🍻 🥓 🍳 🍻 🎱 🎶 🎤

A warm welcoming local doing breakfasts and good beer great pint of Guinness

Great breakfast, friendly staff

Top pub great service great food

Family party to celebrate Christening..very well looked after..food and service was great.

Called in while on a cycle ride around the Cheshire lanes excellent brunch menu and can recommend the sausage bap very tasty, warm and friendly staff

This is a decent pub with a good atmosphere. Drinks are keenly priced with a good selection of beers and wines. It is everything you want from a pub. Its not a massive place so can get busy.

Parent's local pub. Seemed like a bit of a dive before but the new owner really seems to be making an effort and turning the place around. Great to see. Hope people keep supporting it.

had a great time at the folk fest today, friendly welcoming staff and great music performed by nice people, shame we couldn't stay till the end

Great place to stop for a drink

Lovely food in a traditional village pub Food highly recommend Crows nest stacker was a real hit Chicken wrap with salad was lovely

This pub is a walkers/cyclists cafe during the day, being honest it is a pub just with a menu that suits walkers and cyclists - think bacon butty etc. Great idea especially when you can get a pint too ;-)

Lovely staff. Nothing too much trouble.

Overnight motorhome stay at this very friendly and welcoming pub. Reserved our spaces in the car park. There to meet and greet us. Had home cooked chilli for tea and enjoyed the charity quiz night. Enjoyed our stay

Crow's Nest Cafe breakfast. Just the job. I almost forgot to take a pic

Lovely food, lovely staff, family breakfast for 17 of us, one wheelchair and 3 little ones, and we all had a great time. See you all soon xxx

This pub has recently been taken over and has the crows nest cafe within during the day. Everywhere looks clean and the menu is competitively priced. Great ideas to keep the kids entertained and the staff are very accommodating and friendly. We'll definitely be returning.

We turned up for lunch and a beer and were snarled at by the staff and were told they were closed for cleaning. As though we should know without a sign?

Cosy pub, very friendly and well priced drinks! Will come back. Dog friendly and has sports.

Very friendly family welcome and great Sunday lunch.

Called in on sunday afternoon and my partner and i were the only people in the pub. Only stayed for 1 drink and left.

Great pub traditional with excellent food. Friendly service

The Sunday Roast was Excellent! Thanks

Decided to call in for Sunday lunch. Without doubt the best roast dinner I've ever had. Very reasonably priced £. The staff are very friendly. Our dog Casper 🐶 will definitely be back for Sausages.

Beautiful as always love the atmosphere in this place and food is lovely too xx

DOG FRIENDLY ! Very welcoming, lovely staff and gorgeous reasonably priced food. Highly recommend!

We went for Sunday lunch last Sunday and the roast beef dinner was fabulous , Plenty of it and lovely and hot, Definitely go back again.

Husband and I popped in here for a quick drink on our travels. Lovely friendly down to earth pub. Would definitely visit again if we were passing.

A wonderful pub, fun, homely and friendly. Excellent Sunday Roast that I can can most certainly recommend. A great selection on the menu and plenty of wines to choose from. X

Nice pub pity no Sunday dinner which was all over one wall of the pub, popped in for a drink but no roast dinner. Everything on the menu had chips.

No Sunday lunch available, a limited bar menu with gammon and some snacks off the list. I had scampi which was ok though I realised later the cook had forgotten the lemon which would have helped. I was disappointed after the reviews I read. Was there a change of management recently? Male staff referred to me as pal and mate. Toilet looked like it wasn't cleaned today. The staff put the football on the TV apparently for their benefit, the two guys running the place didn't seem too interested in their customers. Viewing the unprofessional response I received today it doesn't look like improvements are imminent.

Just have to say, what an amazing venue. We had a hangry littleman after getting lost in delamere forest. They couldn't do enough for us and even cooked meals for us after the time had passed. Couldn't recommend highly enough! We will definitely be coming back when ever we are in the area. 5 stars all round. Our littleman said he loved the place too.

Very good locals pub. Excellent service. Though could do with an extra member on the floor when it is busy.

lovely place pleasure to be in such a nice pub staff brilliant and the food wonderful im the one who put the smiley face on the plate well done to the staff keep doing a great job

Lovely food at a great price. Will definitely be returning soon.

Went here today for Sunday Lunch and as always it was amazing and plenty of it. Nice beer garden and surroundings. Will definitely be back. Thanks Mac and Beanie.

Nice company, nice food, a very happy pub,!!X

Nice village pub with lovely food, recommend going here.

I called into this establishment purely going by Google reviews and wasn’t disappointed ! The two young ladies who served me throughout my visit were so incredibly nice and made all the right recommendations and the food was superb. Generally, I never take photos of food, but the desert was SOOO delicious I had to share it. I’ll always now make a point of visiting every time I have to get the Liverpool ferry back to Belfast. Thank you to those lovely girls who made my evening a real pleasure.

Dog friendly pub with a nice seating area outdoors too... staff were polite and friendly. It was quiet when we went. Myself and partner visited here after going Delamere Forest with the dog and reading some positive reviews. We both ordered the Gammon, we were quite disappointed though. The gammon was very thin and hard and the fat on the outside of it was not cooked properly and was grisly, my partner couldn't eat all of his gammon. We were asked if it was OK a few mins into getting it, hadnt tried the gammon by then, but didn't like to complain about it after we'd already been asked. They were good portions though.

Beautiful food lovely setting all in all very good

What a great find in rural Cheshire. The outward appearance of a small cou try pub masks the lovely internal stonework decor. Real ales and food at exceptionally good value for money were a bonus. Whilst the soup was plain and low priced the Sunday Roasts were astounding value at under £10. Meat, mash, roasties, Yorkshire pub, red cabbage, green beans and loads of gravy made for a huge plateful of well prepared good quality food. Will go again

Sunday roast was the best I've had since I don't know when. Piping hot, good portion, bargain at £9.95 (for beef). Pity the soup seemed to be a certain variety of tomato from a tin.

Best pub in Kelsall for the cracks and food 😋

Had a very pleasant Sunday Roast. Everything cooked to perfection (nothing dry or mushy) Sorry I'm not local or I would never bother cooking another big roast again myself.

Another pleasant meal with friends, good beer as well.

Lovely food, very busy so staff were not able to provide services that they want to. Good value and good food.

Lovely food, excellent service, staff very helpful and friendly

Absolutely good great service dog friendly and most of all good wholesome valued food

Loved it . Food was good nice traditional country pub . Had a lovely Sunday roast and best pint I've had in years . Absolutely love it and will definitely be going back again . Thanks .

Great friendly local pub which serves a excellent choice of food, well recommended if in the area

Just passing stopped for sunday lunch, very nice food good selection of veg and plenty of it. Great price to. Will call again if in the area.

Cosy interior, good selection of real ales, reasonably priced menu, large car park, pleasant outdoor seating.

Small but friendly local pub. Good traditional food and great location

After a day walking around Delamere Forrest, and then a game of cricket, I was hungry when we got to The Farmers Arms. Service was great and friendly, and the beer garden was clean and nice, which is important as we had the family dog with us. My girlfriend and I ordered Pie & Mash with gravy, others in our party had Curry, burger and chips, sausage and mash, and fish and chips. Everything but our pie was well presented, and looked lovely. Our pies however were not pies. We had a small bowl of what seemed to be Bolognese meat, with some mash and a couple of flakes of cheese on top, with maybe a table spoon of peas, and no gravy. It was advertised as Pie with either chips or mash, with gravy and peas. It was extremely disappointing to get what we did, and we felt pressured into eating it, as we had been told the kitchen was soon closing, we were starving after a long day, and we were going back to the campsite, and tent. We would not recommend, or revisit The Farmers Arms, especially with so many nice pubs in the immediate area.

Went there for some food with the family. Service was nice and we ordered. A few of us ordered Pie of the day with homemade gravy. We were given bolognaise with mash on the top and a spoonful of peas. Not what we expected at all and was a bit disappointing, considering the price. Think they just used up what they wanted rid of in the kitchen.

A nice friendly pub with a large car park and good level access. High quality yet realistically priced food is offered and the bar is well stocked. They offer a range of draught beers and lagers including guest beers. The service is always friendly, as are the locals. Don't, drive past, drive in, park up and see for yourself.

Very poor doesn’t open till 3pm on Monday stopped doing food at 2.00 pm on a Wednesday

Very pleasant place to stop for a dinner and drink, excellent service!

Excellent food and service. Couldn't fault a thing

6 of us just been in for Fathers day lunch. Fantastic meals all round. The Sunday roast is perfect. Trio of meats, all cooked perfectly, lovely veg and proper gravy. Both burgers were lovely and great ribs and chicken. Greg the chef knows his stuff and it shows in the presentation and flavours of the food. Mac kept our drinks coming at the right time and checked all was ok. All in all a great meal and fantastic staff. We'll be back👍

Great service. Good selection of beers

Stopped in for a snack after Mount Pleasant Gardens and Sculpture Trail. We had a BLT and a tuna panini and it was very nice. Lovely pint of Doom Bar pint too 😜

Love this place, my partner and I have been here a few times now, once with my kids and even took my parents and all have said how wonderful the food is and friendly and welcoming the staff are. Can't wait to go back.

IF you like good food iam sorry to say steercleer of this place its all commercial kitchin supplies asin frozen Yorkshire pudding. the gammon is so thin & salty its inbarasing rasing as a Yorkshire man it should a inch thick if you like propper food look somewhere elsse if your celiac don't bother thay promise Allsorts on the phone but lazy chef cant do it steer cleer you have been warned.

Great food and friendly atmosphere. Ideal location to call in after a walk in the woods

Great place. Lovely staff, had a great Sunday roast, highly recommend this place.

Excellent little pub, food was good quality, fish finger sandwich was great, nice light batter. Few theething problems with service, but it's only been open 3weeks apparently so should improve with time. I'd definitely go back in the future

We very much enjoyed our visit. Lunch was very tasty hot and served well.

Currently under new management and not serving food, in spite of signs on road and on building.

An ok Sunday lunch, friendly staff and an excellent pint

Polite staff clean friendly Good Food

Nice welcome from bar staff, nice bar

Lovely old pub..nice atmosphere! :)

Nice reasonably priced country pub.

Good lunch at the Farmers Arms. Limited options, but a nice jacket potato with chicken and bacon. Quick service. Glass of Shiraz, all good value.

Proper pub, lovely new landlord, go try it out, support your local. Lost too many. Or make it a lunch stop on your next walk around Sandstone Trail, Delamere.

Just re-opened - food coming soon - nice atmosphere - waiting to see how it goes

Lovley edge of village pub , with a great all be it small beer garden, overlooking beautiful country side

Just called as we were passing. Fantastic food and very friendly.

Excellent friendly proper pub, and good food 👍

Very friendly atmosphere. Staff superb. excellent beer. Not been there for a few months but the change of landlord had made a huge difference.

Super food, lovely friendly pub

Popped in for lunch today after a walk. Received a friendly welcome. Food was good at a reasonable price.

Great place for a decent meal and drinks. I came with a group of ramblers after our trek in Delamere. We preordered our meals and they were served in good time. The quality and quantity was excellent with the home cooked food really pleasing all of us. I had the braised beef which was extremely tender. Thank you from all our rambling group for providing us with such an excellent meal

Great pub and service! Alan is great, very friendly and welcoming! Better than it used to be!

Tasty food, decent prices and nice friendly atmosphere. Thoroughly recommend the roast beef.

Visits over the festive period. Great hospitality and food is just what you need. Bar prices for drinks are good, and great atmosphere for a few drinks early on new years eve. Great to see the local so full, wishing the new management all the best!

Traditional local pub that needs your support. Friendly atmospher & staff. There's good food, very well kept cask ales & friendly staff in pleasant surroundings. Events take place throughout the week but Thursday is unique in that it's Mountain Biking Club Night. Not one but two Mountain Biking Clubs meet here on a Thursday evening (7pm) they depart for separate rides around nearby Delamere Forest returning back to the Farmers Arms for a post ride drink , a chat & a laugh which generally involves a light hearted review of the night's ride. Both clubs are friendly & always happy to welcome new members to the fold.

Old, unpretentious pub. Beer, snacks, bad decor. Like Britain in the 50's.

Bumping this from a 3 to 5 after a second visit on a Friday evening. Just moved to the area and had just enough time to catch the end of the entertaining and humorous quiz. Staff, environment and punters all fantastic.

Ride Bikes, Drink Beer, Be Awsome! A real Mountain Bikers Pub😎 Totally Awesome! Very, very cycle friendly, they let you use their carpark so it's only good manners to call in for a post ride drink. To top it off they regularly provide our group with a free plate of sausage & chips! If that doesn't warrant 5 stars then my name is Donald Trump!😂

Nice friendly pub, bit quiet when we were there.

The pub seems slightly run down and little selection in variety of drinks

Awful service 1 bar staff on at bank holiday who did not know what food available....I was told she just serves the bar so think u have to guess. No roast potatoes on roast and as 1 customer was told to "fuxx off" we decided not to ask!! about the food. Will NOT be visiting again disgrace
