The Hart Of Hartford in Cheshire West and Chester - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Hey, just a suggestion, migas with chorizo is a Spanish dish, if you serving Mexican migas you guys should change the name, I get very disappointed and feel that Spanish culture is not respect.

Went to the Hart of Hartford for a meal on a Saturday night. It has a lovely atmosphere with unobtrusive live music and very friendly and attentive staff. The food was delicious with a varied menu and great cocktails.

Just had a perfect evening with friends in this lovely, relaxed restaurant. Great drinks and absolutely perfect, delicious food. We shared chorizo in maple syrup which was the best I’ve ever had, as well as beetroot hummus and crispy cauliflower with a sweet chili jam and lots of bread to start. All perfect and delicious. Then lemon sole and fish and chips for our mains- also full of flavour and texture. The waiting staff, Maisie(?) and a lovely guy full of smiles and energy (didn’t catch his name but he was lovely) gave us just the right amount of attention throughout the evening. A total gem of a place.

Excellent service and the atmosphere and effort was fantastic... Best of all was our waitress Liv ..lovely and efficent .. Thank you for a lovely experience 😘

Wow, the steak and eggs are amazing, I didn't eat anything else that day. Service was very good, ot does get very busy, staff are polite and friendly. We would definitely come back.

The best breakfast spot in Northwich, coffee and food could not be faulted but I’d suggest booking because I can imagine it gets busy!

First review I’ve ever done. I rarely use the word ‘flawless’ but this place truly exceeds all expectations. I mean just look at these photos. Everything tastes just how it looks. A genuine hidden gem. Will be coming here again.

Lovely brunch... got food envy for my partners chorizo hash thingy

Came for brunch on a Monday Immaculate vibes Chilled tunes Food was 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Coffee was quality too I live 30 mins away and will definitely be coming back Highly recommend

Nice place....the rest room need work,

Our first time here and we loved it. James and the young lady who served us were absolutely lovely. Good friendly atmosphere. To start with we shared a focaccia from the specials menu which we both really enjoyed. Sea bass linguine was really good, my husband asked for his crispy chilli beef to be mild and it was spot-on. Add a nice bottle of wine to go with it and we had a great time. We would love to come back. Thanks.

I visited The Hart yesterday for lunch, there was plenty of empty tables. I ordered mushrooms and poached egg on sourdough bread. I waited 35 minutes, then got up, put my coat on and prepared to leave, I thought the wait was too long. The meal then arrived, the “poached egg” was boiled hard. When I went to the counter to pay, I was offered no discount at all for the whole experience, least of all the standard of cooking a poached egg. I regard local businesses as essential to village life, but that is not an excuse for delivering sub-standard service and food. I informed them that I wouldn’t be returning.

Incredibly friendly, excellent service and fantastic food. Brilliant all round!

The pregnant waitress was extremely rude and unhelpful, the rest of the younger waiters were nice enough but spent most of the night taking the food to the wrong table. Expensive so not worth it for the service you get. Probably wouldn't go again

Without a doubt the best place for brunch in northwich! I eat out a lot and this was the best food I’d had in months. The staff were so accommodating with my allergies too, they were more than happy to go above and beyond. I will be back very soon 😍

Went for a meal with friends, lovely atmosphere, gorgeous food (we all had different meals from the menu) and fab service. All the team were really welcoming, nothing too much trouble, but big shout out to Alex who looked after our table.

The best breakfast I have had in ages... really fresh, everything was premium. Just make sure to book as it gets busy, but it's worth the wait

Took my mum for some Mother’s Day lunch at our usual gem in the village. I’ve got to say I’m always so impressed with this place, the food is always delicious, the staff are extremely tentative and the ambiance is great. It’s always very busy (but this is a great sign no????). Despite this busyness, the staff always have time for us (particularly the host James and the lovely blonde waitress who served us). Couldn’t recommend enough, will be back in next week to be blown away.

Issues throughout our recent visit. Main issue was with one member of staff. We booked for 7 plus 2 babies and arrived to find we’d been given a table with no room for high chairs. The member of staff denied we’d requested this (which was a lie), then insisted my wife was ‘intimidating’ when she showed him the proof of our full booking. Luckily, another table agreed to swap with us, otherwise we’d have had to leave. Food was okay but not great, and other members of staff were very nice and accommodating. Finally, the bill was a mess and the problem member of staff had overcharged us because he couldn’t adequately add up the set menu prices. I imagine he’d overcharged a lot of people today. Overall, won’t be going back.

Had a wonderful Mother's Day meal at Hart of Hartford! The service was top-notch, the food was delicious, and the staff were lovely. The young man who appeared to be the manager was lovely, very accommodating and friendly! A perfect place to celebrate a special occasion like Mother's Day.

Last minute booking early doors on a Friday night. Got a table for 2 and nothing wzs too much trouble. Amber took our order and made recommendations. Food was amazing as always. My husband had a couple of Bailey's Martini's expertly mixed by James. This place consistently delivers whatever the occassion. See you soon 😊

A fantastic evening out with family, highly recommend. Great food and atmosphere.

The food and drinks where lovely. And Amber was fantastic and looked after use. And the live music was very good. Definitely be going there again.

I visited the hart or Hartford this morning whilst staying in the area with some friends and it was a fabulous experience. The atmosphere and decor are immaculate, the food was incredibly tasty and the staff were extremely pleasant and attentive. I will definitely return when back in the area!

What a great little find. Lovely cafe / restaurant. Had a Sunday brunch (Steak and eggs). The steak was a good as any restaurant I have been to. Very busy so atmosphere was great.

What an amazing place to hire out for a private party to celebrate my 60th Birthday with 57 guests. All of the staff were so friendly and well organised and really looked after us throughout the night. The food was outstanding and all the guests were impressed with what was on offer. It was all freshly cooked and more was brought out to top up the quickly emptied plates. I had forgotten 2 of my guests were vegetarian and Sophie quickly organised 2 platters for them which went down very well. A big thank you to Scott,Charley,Lee,Sophie,Maicey,Lottie,Alex and James for making it a night to remember.

This was my first visit to Hartford. Having eaten in, arguably, some of the best restaurants around the UK, I have to say that this was the best Eggs Benedict that I have ever had. Great Tall Black coffee and atmosphere. I'm literally thinking of excuses to travel back!

I booked here having never been before for my friends 30th for 20 people. The staff were super accommodating up to the event and then throughout our time there. We were looked after by Sophie, Amber and Liv 👏🏼 they were so lovely thank you! The food was gorgeous, arrived really prompt and we’ll definitely be back to try something else! Thanks again guys 🤩

Not impressed! Ordered eggs on sourdough. It cam to the table very burnt so I politely asked for two more pieces of toast. After about ten/fifteens mins it came out again but this time on cheap sliced bread. I asked if I could have the sourdough ordered and I was told 'sorry it's three days old so we can't use it'. This was despite being served it burnt ten mins earlier! My friend asked if it would be priced accordingly which we were told no it wouldn't. £8 for two cheap sliced pieces of bread with 2 overcooked and cold poached eggs! Think this is the first review I have ever written but seemed worth writing it as the experience was pretty poor.

Lovely vegan breakfast and lovely friendly staff. Needs more plant based options and lost a star for being turned away twice without the option of waiting. Book ahead.

What a shame!! Waited more than an hour for food to arrive, ‘because there was a group of 20’ in. We usually don’t mind waiting, but would like to have been told at the beginning, as we could have gone elsewhere. When the food did turn up, the Vegan granola was ok, the spicy corn fritters could have been good had they been warm.

We had the very delicious Christmas sharing board on one of the Santa evenings. The children loved meeting Father Christmas - brilliant value- meal and thoughtful gift box to take home. Would definitely recommend this next Christmas.

Fabulous food, very well presented and staff were very attentive. Great to have such a nice place to eat in the village

Visited with my partner, had to wait 25 minutes to order food but the staff were polite and food arrived a while after and was lovely. Portions could be bigger for the price but it was adequate. The host was extremely friendly today and was efficient. Staff didn’t offer anymore drinks however and a lengthy wait for food.

This restaurant was a nice little hidden gem for those who like the upper part of life, lovely food, and lovely staff.

The staff were adequate. The food was terrible. The dish is supposed to include lots of onions, lardons and mushrooms. These three ingredients were obviously in severe shortage on this day.

I have eaten here a few times now and it is always amazing. The food is really tasty and the service is very friendly. Such a lovely restaurant.

Nice coffee and good, friendly, smiley greeting and service. A nice little place

We were visiting Hartford on Saturday and walked passed the Hart and decided to pop in for breakfast what a lovely place to have a drink and bite to eat. We were made to feel welcome from all the staff best place to go in Hartford for a drink and food, we will visit again when we return next year. Steve and Michele from Bedfordshire

Always very good food and atmosphere. Sometimes the service is slow and not as attentive as perhaps it could be.

Really lovely brunch spot! went with my partner and service and food was excellent truly the best place in hartford for food

Excellent all round. My sis and I come from London to visit my Aunt twice yearly and we used to come to The Hart on each visit, but started going elsewhere as the food wasn't great. We thought we'd give it another try and what a lovely surprise it turned out to be! The food was so good, service was great (not sure what our server was called but he had an excellent mullet hairdo!). The only thing I would like to see is a few more vegan options, but other than that, PERFECT!

Great gluten free menu and take allergens seriously. Service was great. A bit pricey but nice for a treat.

The venue was very accommodating for a baby shower, it was a lovely space and we had use of the whole restaurant. The staff where very accommodating and the food was delicious. Really recommend.

We have been to Hart of Hartford many times for breakfast but never for dinner in the evening. Today we tried it for the first time and it was an amazing meal. We went for their Wednesday Burger Night which was a great deal, tasty food, quick and friendly service, lovely atmosphere and good portions. Everyone really enjoyed their food and the evening dinner there. Highly recommend visiting Hart of Hartford- great independent restaurant.

Went for a bottomless brunch, very quick with service and drinks. It was no trouble asking for anything. Staff really are a credit. Food was really good quality.

Just prosecco today, but a great atmosphere as usual.

The best bottomless brunch around!! 100% recommend - the food, drinks & staff were amazing! Will 100% be back!

Good nibbles, good range of drinks, friendly atmosphere.

Food was good, we ate from the lunch menu. Unfortunately the service was poor and it was nowhere near full, nobody came to take our order but staff were serving several tables who arrived after us. We had to ask for cutlery when our food arrived. It was just disappointing overall.

Absolute gem of a place! The food was really good quality and the service was great, all the staff are so friendly and welcoming! Dog friendly inside as well. The menu was really good and it was hard to choose from all the brunch and breakfast options. Would love to go back next time we are in the area :)

First time we’ve visited this venue and it didn’t disappoint, we celebrated my mums 79th birthday and had a fabulous evening, great vibe, excellent service and fantastic food. Sophie looked after us and was amazing so many many thanks great service from start to finish. We will definitely visit again.

Amazing food and service. Great value with the Burger and Fries offer on a Wednesday. Really nice atmosphere and very helpful and friendly staff.

Delightful place for brunch. Definitely recommend the mushrooms and spinach on toast. Very tasty.

Little visit to get some work done. Sat outside enjoying the sunshine 😊 Staff lovely and professional. Food - good, made fresh to order 😋 Relaxing atmosphere, will be back!

We love it here, great food and staff are so friendly and attentive. The member of staff called James is brilliant.

Sat outside for breakfast and the floor had squashed chips on it possibly from the night before. Ordered coffee witch was pale and no taste and then cheese on toast which was bread with a cheese slice on. How can you get cheese on toast so wrong?? Staff not even bothered and still tried to charge me for this. The icing on the cake was the young lad. Taking picture of for for media. All good if it’s not busy but tables left dirty. He then decided to neck the wine and find it funny. If he wants to drink wine at breakfast that’s fine but do it in the kitchen. Won’t be visiting again.

We absolutely love this place. We've tried out a few eating places around Hartford, but this is by far our favourite. Excellent food every time, waiters are warm and polite and friendly. Love it here. For us - me, a person with many the dietary restriction, and my sister, autistic with a particular palette - we are delighted to have found many menu items we can eat. The range is excellent and there are options for all, I'm sure. Highly recommend!!

Very friendly atmosphere and servers. Biscoff toffee pudding cake was delicious.

Lovely 50th celebration! The team made us all feel really welcome. Lots of great gastro pub style food with a weekly specials to choose from. All adults and children happy (in fact the quesadilla starters were enormous!). Good cocktail choice early doors. Lovely informal outdoor dining in the (rare) summer sun. Thanks again.

Wow! This place is just incredible. Service, food and drinks all top notch. So much choice on the food menu you feel like you want to order "one of everything please". Highly recommended.

I eat quite often at the hart, they do an amazing breakfast but my last visit which was last week was for lunch with my daughter and her friend and i have to say the salt & pepper chicken burger is the nicest thing ive ever ate. The kids had milkshakes which tasted really nice, they had sausage & chips off the childrens menu which they both enjoyed.

The Hart is a lovely, vibrant cafe/bar/restaurant all rolled into one. Great staff (James was our host!) and great food and drinks. Highly recommend it and with the added bonus of an outdoor area too for those sunny afternoons, it’s a must! ❤️ Lou x

Came for steak night with my family and it didn’t disappoint. Had a delicious meal and lovely cocktails. My son had the biscoff milkshake and said it was to die for!! We were served by James and Liv who were just amazing, so friendly and...

Great place with excellent service and fantastic food.

Food is lovely, staff very helpful - all good. But, at 9.45 you are already looking at customers to leave, the lights are going on, you are clearing up, last order etc. It's Saturday night, so come to Hart if you want to be in bed by 10 :-( not the first time either

Food was lovely when it arrived but took a long time for a bacon buttie and avocado on toast. Locations d atmosphere were great and it’s nice to be able to eat outside when the weather is good.

We came in for a family evening meal on a Saturday and sat outside in the beautiful outdoor seating area. Service was fantastic, as well as the food and cocktails. I had the salt and pepper chicken burger which was to die for. I also...

Visited the Hart and tried out their new menu which was really difficult to chose from as there were so many delicious options to pick from - new and old favourites. Chose the sticky ribs and wasn’t disappointed. They were probably the best I’ve tasted...

Really great service and food. I had steak and enjoyed it. The vibe was good, we were well looked after by I think one of the owners but all staff great.

Very rude staff member (young guy who had a chip on he’s shoulder)

Went on Wednesday for the burger deal as a group of four with 2 dogs. Dog friendly a bonus and a bowl of water was supplied for them by Sophie who looked after us for the night. We had 3 different types of burgers, upgraded...

We had a fantastic meal and experience this evening in The Hart. We hadn't been since before Covid, even though we live in the village and we were so glad we chose to try it there for an impromptu Thursday night out. The cocktails were...

BBQ Burgers absolutely delicious. Definitely will come back for Wednesday Burger night.

Food was ok. Shame about the big white tent out the front. It looks awful. They snuck it up during covid and somehow the council haven’t told them to take it down. Really detracts from the look of the place. If they need the space...

Absolutely fantastic as always. Service is great, menu is varied and food is always delicious. Can’t fault the Hart of Hartford in any way. It’s probably my favourite restaurant in Cheshire!

Wasted a walk to this place. Midday Sunday on a bank holiday and they were unable to serve food! Plenty of free tables and the occupied tables had people eating. Apparently the kitchen needed to close for a while. Suggest you phone them before turning up, or try the Hartford Hall down the road.

Fantastic evening , food was fabulous, James was the perfect host , will be back soon The place was very quiet which was such a shame and maybe a free drink to entice locals in would be a good step with some local flyers Seriously...

We come to the Hart quite often but we came in tonight for just a couple of drinks before going out for dinner and James could not have been more attentive! He was super efficient and made sure we were all paid and ready to go for our taxi- an absolute credit to the Hart team. Lauren and Gil x

we were served by james, he was amazing and couldn’t do enough for us during our meal!

My favourite lunch spot in Hartford, friendly staff on a busy Friday lunch, every plate of food that came past looked and smelled great. Great value for money .

Lovely small restaurant with gastro "pub" feel. Had bottomless brunch with a group of female friends. We all had a brilliant time. Service was very fast and friendly. The girls didn't leave a glass empty at any point and couldn't do enough for us! The sharing platters were well received by the meat eaters although the veggie choice was lacking with no hot food on the board. All in all one of the best brunches around and would still 100% recommend. Thank you.

Nipped in on chance. Great coffee, lovely breakfast and brilliant staff.

Friendly excellent service. Food was well presented and excellent to taste.

We visited for lunch. We were seated at a table next to the toilets and kitchen. We ordered our food straight away but it took 40 minutes to arrive. When it did 3 flies swarmed around our table and didn’t leave us until the plates...

Enjoyed a lovely meal on Saturday here with attentive great service too. The cod special was cooked perfectly and the prawn starter was too! Really nice wine and a great vibe with a live singer. Top marks! 🎉

Only ever been for breakfast, but always thoroughly enjoyed, food is very good

An great little place! Really good food and very friendly and efficient staff. They can get very busy, so plan accordingly.

I thought long and hard about writing a a review for a couple of coffees.Maybe it's bit childish... I don't know.. Probably is. Bought two cappuccino's for I thought £3.40 each as per price list and asked for decaf. Cups were small and at least...

The bottomless brunch was fantastic. A great event, brilliant entertainment. Would definitely recommend it.

Lovely place. I was meeting a friend for lunch and arrived horribly early. Staff were lovely and welcoming. As a coeliac, I requested something that was different from the menu and it was lovely. Gorgeous, buzzing, centre of the village vibe. Will certainly go again.

Walked to The Hart on Saturday evening for early doors. We were given a warm welcome from Sophie and we sat in the outdoor area with overhead heaters. We ordered Cocktails and sides. Good service just needed to ask for napkins because there were no...

I was here a year ago next month for brunch, and now, and what a disappointment!! Last time I reviewed this eatery the food and service were stunning, but not so much this time! My mouth wanted the harissa roast cauliflower but I understand that...

A rare lunch out with a friend and decided on the hart. Service from the start was awful. Very slow. Drinks ordered and had to ask for a menu and then to order food as no one came over to us and there was plenty...

I really want this place to succeed but I’m pessimistic after a disappointing visit. It looked closed but we persisted through the door, past the brush leaning against the outside. So, first impressions not great. We were seated at a table which had a container...

We called at 1015 today for some brunch. The restaurant was virtually empty and the wait staff told us we could only have drinks outside!!! We would have only been there half an hour We were not willing to sit outside an empty restaurant in...

Fantastic food, great service and cocktails to die for. Thank you for a lovely evening. We can't wait to come back.

Excellent service, nice environment ❤️

For a start its overpriced for what you get. It's better value in pricey Knutsford as you can get more for less. Secondly, the lack of basic staff training was evident. We ordered a pot of tea and a latte. Fine. We then asked for...

Really nice place with great service and wonderful food. Me and my gf stopped off driving past looking for somewhere to eat. we had no reservation but they were happy to seat us even though it was a Saturday evening with prebooked tables.
