The Hawk Inn in Cheshire East

Our first visit on Friday certainly didn't disappoint. We're moving in over the road next week and can't wait for Halloween when the sweetie jar on the bar gets filled. Bring it on! Planning to work our way through the menu too; outstanding hospitality at the Hawk rarely witnessed at this side of the county. Ben Robinson is lucky to have such a dedicated team.

Food was good however we had a while wait on our food and when we questioned it werent told how long it would be. Drinks and atmosphere was good however service was slow and the pub wasnt busy at all.

Called in for lunch we had the fish on Friday scampi and fish cakes, which were the best I have tasted. Very generous portions. Staff are wonderful, so friendly and efficient. Best lunch we have had in a while. Thank you x

Had a fabulous afternoon at the Hawk for our family gathering.beautiful buffet and lovely sweets, Stacey and all the staff could not do enough for us, thank you all so much...... see you all again soon

Absolutely superb venue, very clean and extremely friendly staff, had the fish on the light lunch menu and it was the best fish I have ever tasted( I am 87) and the batter was so crispy, such good value. Would recommend to anyone

The Hawk has been renovated and they have done a cracking job. This was my first time visiting for a meal and it certainly won’t be the last. We enjoyed chicken Parmo and ordered 2 Mediterranean feta salads with chicken. When our food was delivered we were presented with 2 chicken Caesar salads, when we pointed out the mistake they were quickly taken away. Minutes later, our salads sheepishly returned, however, feta, red onion and cucumber, had been added to the original Caesar salad. So we ended up with 2 salads combined - Caesar and Mediterranean feta. To be fair, it was tasty, however I’m not sure that other people might be so accommodating especially as there was no apology and we weren’t advised that the 2 salads had been combined. That said, we did enjoy our evening and will return, especially so I can order and see what the Mediterranean feta salad should taste like.

Pleasantly surprised. Took a chance & glad we did. The place was busy, a party had just arrived, yet we got served promptly. The menu was not huge, always a bonus in my mind, yet enough choice to make us ponder. Salt & pepper chicken starter, wild mushroom rissotto & creme brulee were so good, we both had the same 😎 Well priced & great value. Will definitely return, staff were friendly & helpful & food was great.

Popped in for a drink at 10 .20 tonight, found the chairs upside down on the tables and the staff moping up the floors around customers! Totally inexceptable behaviour by staff, with no sign of management. Could not get a drink! Will not be going back, and i am one of their regular customers. Totally unacceptable behaviour by enabled staff who obviously just want to go home early. This is not a restaurant it's a pub which would appear to be run on behalf of the staff rather than the customers.

This place takes 'Pub Food' to the next level. Very impressed. Even their bar snacks have raised the bar in terms of standards. A warm and friendly atmosphere plus space for the kids to play outside, made the experience even better.

Very pleasantly surprised by our visit. This is a gorgeous pub and the staff are amazing, especially the lovely blonde lady who served us and was amazing, funny and attentive. Thought that there would be not many vegan choices, but she brought out a whole vegan menu and there were desserts! The food was delicious and piping hot! Karaoke was on later and we had a really fun evening. Definite worth a visit. 10/10!

Called in for impromptu late lunch. Very warm welcome, opted for starter and lighter mains. Staff are so attentive and friendly and the food excellent, particularly the garlic mushroom starters. Will definitely be back, thank you

Our visit after a two week cruise and absolutely loved the evening Great service and excellent food better than the cruise Highly recommend this pub

This little gem is worth a visit , recently refurbished to a high standard, warm cosy and spotlessly clean. We tried the duck off the new menu , the locally sourced sausages ( literally from the butcher across the street) and the tagliatelle carbonara and all 3 dishes were faultless. At first glance the new menu added recently , looked on the pricey side compared to the pub classics but we were wowed by the quality and portion sizes so well worth trading up I would say . The staff were excellent, really attentive but not intrusive and they gave us a very warm welcome. Reasonable wine and drinks menu and a good selection of very lovely desserts . Not our first time here but first time with the new menu and will definitely be back .

We arrived to a lovely welcome , and the service continued at a very high standard , friendly but professional! The food was truly awesome , you could taste every flavour .. here is a chef that clearly takes pride in his/her craft ! My husband has a weakness for rice pudding ( not everyone’s choice and on very few menus) he was delighted and can’t wait to go back !! I agree .. counting down the days to the next visit !!

First time in a dog friendly pub with the dog! The staff were lovely and fussed our pup. The food was really nice, bit pricy but worth it. We found a little nook to sit with it being pups first time. She was well behaved and wasn't too restless. Bowl outside could have done with a regular refresh, but other than that, we will be visiting again

Fabulous lunch , we were in the small room at the back which was beautifully decorated for Xmas ! Everyone’s main meal was delicious , the puddings were excellent and the service was second to none , polite & friendly . Great price too !

Decided to have Christmas Dinner cooked for us. HUGE THANK YOU to all the hard working staff We and our dog Jasper had a fab time. Food was lovely xx

My Wife and I have been to Hawk at least once a week since it reopened always enjoyed good food and friendly service

Beautiful Sunday lunch a few months ago, thick slice of brisket, lovely veg, great service. Decided to have special birthday celebration with family of 10, pre ordered meal for Sunday 3rd Dec at 5pm. So disappointed, change of chef we were told. Waited 45 minutes for starters, 30 minutes for main and 30 minutes for sweet. One slither of beef, one piece of broccoli, (must have fallen out of fridge, raw), parsnips boiled,(soggy on outside slightly raw in middle), cabbage like shoe leather, dreadful. Pre ordered four beef dinners, was offered refund on one meal and offered chicken replacement as ran out of beef. Very disappointed, had to ask staff to clear dishes away and cooked egg and chips on returning home. Sorry The Hawk, won't be returning unless the former chef returns.

I really want to love this place. The refurb is fab and the food is usually good but the service is unbelievably slow. We waited half an hour for a prawn cocktail, which turned out to be 5 prawns and a minuscule amount of dressing. The Christmas dinner was good apart from the turkey was as tough as old boots. I don’t think we’ll eat here again.

Warm atmosphere, friendly staff, lovely food and good drinks selection. We were served very quickly and nothing was too much trouble. Menu has a lot to choose from, we particularly loved the steak and ale pie!

The food was of a very high quality and the whole table were really delighted at the presentation and taste. The service was next level and I seriously can’t recommend this hidden jewel enough. Will definitely be making this a regular! Thank you for restoring my joy and pleasure in going to the Pub!

Alot better with an improved menu. Decent range of starters including black pudding and haggis bon bons, garlic mushrooms, garlic and chilli prawns.... Homemade steak and ale pie for mains too. Probably best to book.

Local pub with a warm welcome. Even though there was a large party in having a meeting and food I was served quickly and the light bite fish n chips was served promptly. It was just enough and delicious. My dog loved a little of the fish as well. Would recommend this pub

Oh dear. We have been four times since it reopened after the long awaited refurbishment, which is lovely. The staff are lovely. We were excited to have a decent little 'local' serving pub grub. The food, and consequently the price point leaves much to be desired. Some items were not available, and long waits were understandable at the beginning but have things improved? A distinct lack of veg with a dinner. Half a slice of toasted thin white bread with the pate and no butter. Delicious risotto but far too small of a portion, you have to add chicken to make it a normal portion. We have held back from reviewing in the hope that things would settle and improve but four visits and no improvement. We can’t afford to throw money away on a bad food experience. We hope to hear that things can improve to the standard of other nearby Robinson Pubs.

Went to this restaurant with 4 friends. 1 person ate off the main menu and 4 of us had the lunch menu. The main courses were just OK but I couldn’t recommend any of the food we had (fish and chips, ham and egg, chicken pie). 3 of us had a dessert, it was supposed to be Elton Mess but bore no resemblance to a proper Elton Mess. We were presented with a plate smeared with raspberry sauce, a scoop of extra thick double cream was placed on top of it, then 2 tiny pieces of strawberry (about one eighth of a strawberry); the whole thing then had a scattering of meringue crumb over the top. We were all just aghast at what we had been presented with. No member of staff was nearby to complain. After this experience none of us will be visiting The Hawk again.

My first time back here since the refurbishment and subsequent opening in August. What a beautiful job they have done, the pub is classy and comfortable, old features retained, excellent job. The team are lovely, welcoming, articulate and just a pleasure to interact with. The food is sensational, the steak pie was the best we have ever tried, as were the sausages. Would have liked to have tried dessert but we had to get our Beagle home. Lovely to see other doggies in there, all getting along peacefully. Will certainly make an effort to visit more frequently, well done guys.

Visited for the first time since moving into the area for a drink and decided to stay for something to eat as it was a folk night. During our meal we saw about a dozen performers sit across from us and we had the best evening The food we had were steak n ale and chicken n ham The quality was excellent. Made on the premises Our little dig enjoyed the evening and even slept during the music performance Lively lovely warm cosy pub with history

Booked Saturday early dinner as a family of 3 . The menu is small typical pub food but well executed with something for everyone. Nice to see the local butcher supplying the pub that gets a big tick for me . Would recommend the home made pate and the steak pie was spot on . Good value puds as well . It’s spotlessly clean , friendly and warm . Give it a go if you’re local !

Lovely refurbishment of the pub, food was excellent and service brilliant . Menu simple but the food first class. Definitely an asset to the area.

This was our first time eating here since the refurbishment and both the food and beers were excellent. The staff were very good and extremely attentive. Would definitely eat here again.

Visited for the first time last night for dinner with friends. The makeover has been done really beautifully but in keeping with the age of the building. We were given a friendly welcome by all the staff and plenty of time to make our choices. The menu is not vast but there still plenty of variation and choice. The food was delicious, I can honestly say the mushroom risotto is the nicest I have ever had. I heartily recommend The Hawk Inn and hope it does well.

Fab-ewe-lous food, lovely cheery staff recently refurbished & it looks amazing a lovely old Pub definitely be back 😋 😊

Not particularly busy, waited a while at the bar. Wanted food for 2 but told they have a party of ten coming in and aren't taking any more meal bookings

Highly recommended, friendly service, excellent food. TheHawk recently renovated to a high standard but still retaining its historic features and atmosphere. A great asset to the village.

Since the hawk reopened this is our third visit for food and drinks. And we haven’t been disappointed once! The work done to the building is amazing and the food equally as good! Will be a regular spot for us! Keep up the brilliant work...

What a fantastic turn around and refurbishment! The refurb totally is in keeping with this 16th century pub , if anything it's added to the character. The service is fantastic and nothing is too much trouble, great gluten free selection. Had food here twice now, first time was the home made burgers which are very flavoursome and juice. Today we went for the 2 course Sunday lunch which was delicious, the beef brisket was just melt in the mouth great vegetables and a banging Yorkie. It's dog friendly and has a great family atmosphere. If you are passing or live in Haslington its a must !

We were delighted to have an excellent meal on the first day of the opening after the renovations.The alterations are a success. We were welcomed by the mine hosts and staff. Highly recommended

This pub is being run in to the ground and it could be so good. Nothing wrong with children in a pub but it’s more like a crèche and a drop in centre. Fridges aren’t stocked properly, bar snacks if they aren’t non existent they...

Went to the hawk on the spur of the moment for Sunday Lunch hoping that they’d not sold out and we were in luck but only just. So 2 roast beef dinners were ordered and got to say if you want quality and value for money look no further than this historic local village pub. The food was extremely tasty washed down with a nice bottle of merlot. Only regret was we didn’t leave any room for pudding (big mistake they looked great) never mind because there will be a next time.

Read reviews beforehand, was not disappointed at all, a proper homemade Sunday lunch, well worth a visit. We’ll be back

Yet again another fantastic Sunday lunch. Been here a number of times for Sunday lunch and it never disappoints.

Popped in for lunch today and had quite possibly the best Sunday roast I have ever eaten. It was all freshly cooked and utterly delicious from the lean, tasty ham to the giant Yorkshire pudding. Lovely service too. I can highly recommend it!

We’ve just left the Hawk Inn - friendly pub - happy to fit us in early. Sunday dinner didn’t disappoint- great Yorkshire’s & roasties. Definitely worth a visit. See you next year 😀

If you want a Sunday Roast that is truly ‘home cooked’ then this is the place. Everything cooked to perfection. Pleasant friendly people too.

Excellent food and good value for money and a nice atmosphere, in an old style English public house set in a nice village.

If the quality of food is a priority in your choice of pub food and you want value for money then you can`t beat this venue. The bonus is a good fire and friendly locals .

Went with family for a Christmas get together for Sunday lunch , we had a room to ourselves with a fire it was lovely, the food was amazing roast dinners all round , the service is excellent and the staff are very friendly, this was the second time we have been and would definitely recommend to anyone, if you like good home made food you will love it , Happy Christmas to all the staff and thank you again for a lovely lunch .

What a Sunday lunch! magnificent - nearly too much to eat (but not quite). Good beers as well. The landlord and staff are very friendly.

Visited here on a Wednesday evening, never been before but saw good reviews so thought would give it a try. It was amazing, great food, great atmosphere friendly staff. We booked in for 6.30. As we were leaving a quiz had just started and it was popular and a really nice atmosphere. I would recommend to book, will be visiting again.

We’re lucky enough to have The Hawk as our local. There’s always a lovely atmosphere and the pub is very cosy. The food is AMAZING, whether it’s sunday lunch or something off the normal menu, it’s locally sourced and freshly prepared and cooked, some of the nicest food I’ve ever eaten. We also love the fact that The Hawk is really dog friendly, our dog always get treats every time we go in. Definitely try it if you’ve not been before!

Went for Sunday lunch with family , it's the best Sunday roast we have had for a long time , lovely food , large portions all cooked beautiful , this was the first time we have been but will definitely go back again would definitely recommend it.

Perfect Sunday lunch again! You can’t go wrong with The Hawk. Everything is homemade and super tasty. All local products and amazing Yorkshire’s xx

Yet again another fantastic Sunday lunch. If you’re looking for a tasty normal Sunday lunch this is the place to go. We are lucky because we live in the village..but even if we didn’t it would be well worth the drive out to eat here. Tall Yorkshire pudding,roast potatoes,mash potatoes , two veg and cauliflower cheese and the choice of one of two meats. Serve freshly made and very hot. I can’t praise this place enough. Tim and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. Don’t just take my word for it..just ring up and book a table and go .

We visited The Hawk - haslington with our family on Sunday and our meal was outstanding. Absolutely all the veg and Yorkshire’s were cooked from fresh. The meat ( beef and pork) were perfectly cooked and there was so much on our plates.

Made to feel very welcome as soon as we entered, very helpful staff. polite, and cheerful and nothing was too much trouble for them. Made us and our 2 dogs feel very welcome and although we were asked if we would mind sitting away from other diners because of the dogs, it was still really nice to be able to eat with our dogs not having to be left in the car. Big Plus for dog owners! Just had lunch at The Hawk and it was delicious! Roast beef (plenty of it), cabbage and carrots cooked to perfection, and certainly not soggy, roasties and boiled potatoes with no eyes or hard bits in them, cauliflower cheese with a creamy sauce and again not mushed up, the tallest Yorkshire pudding I have seen, very tasty gravy, not that watery stuff, and horseradish sauce! Only complaint if any??? Feeling so stuffed after enjoying it all! Charlie and Dizzy say thank you for the doggy treats as well Most appreciated and look forward to a return meal soon!

I can only agree with all of the recent reviews which unfortunately confirm that it isn't the good place it used to be to eat or drink.

Tried The Hawk today for the first time and was absolutely gutted ordered the Sunday roast ordered the beef as I don’t like lamb and they were the only 2 choices asked in advance about mash but told no mash as new potato s are in grrrrr still looking forward to it the waitress started to bring veg in separate dishes my pet hate as it’s just a faf when you just want to tuck in to your dinner when it came I spend a few minutes putting veg on my plate so finally when I started to tuck in I was gutted as I struggled to even cut the beef and when I did I had to dispose of it in a napkin as it was tough as old boots no check back done so I couldn’t complain straight away 10 minutes after we finished still no sign of a waitress to clear our table so we went to finish our drinks when I went to pay 10 minutes later I noticed our table was only just being cleared so I pointed out the beef I had put into the veg dish all I got was oh sorry again when I paid at the bar it was oh sorry shocking customer service really and we definitely wont be eating there again

This is a lovely old pub with nice staff and customers. The drinks selection is very good and the food offered was very well priced. We had eaten elsewhere but will come back here to eat. Prices are very good for the quality of drinks on offer.

We called in to this place to experience their Sunday lunch. They don’t serve anything else on a Sunday. Just traditional fayre. That was fine for us as we only want to eat beef on a Sunday. We had our dogs with us, so had to sit in the back room. This was fine though as it was nice and quiet. The roast was magnificent with a proper Yorkshire pud. It was ginormous and delicious. Beef was thickly cut and extra gravy was brought in a boat without asking for. Buttered vedges were brought in a separate dish and they had French mustard! Roasters were local taters and very tasty. Good 9/10

Excellent Sunday lunch, food delicious. Tim and his staff can't do enough for you Really recommend a visit.

Have a look at my other reviews before you read this. I am not a serial complainer; anything but.

Just popped in- Decided to have tea here- the steaks looked amazing, and I wasn’t disappointed, rump steak cooked to perfection, and a service, that couldn’t be faulted!!! Well done to all the team- definitely will be back for more.

We went twice this year with friends, each time there were two big dogs wandering around the entrance, a bit off putting to say the least.The food was good, it looked nice and fresh. My only complaint would be about the burger and chips, served on a piece of slate, so it was difficult to eat properly. The scampi was good.

This is without doubt the best Sunday roast possible, full of flavour with the best Yorkshire puddings this side of Sheffield, the only slight mark is more red wine choice, a quality Malbec would hit the mark although the melot was fine.

We come here regularly and always have the best homemade food.The Sunday lunches are fabulous and I can recommend the Chardonnay.The bar is cozy with a roaring fire,this is our favourite pub in the area.Try it you won't be disappointed.

Family sunday lunch booked for mid afternoon, missed the lunchtime rush. Plenty of choice on the menu, specials board and Sunday Roasts of pork and beef. Lovely and warm, very old and traditional proper pub. Food came promptly all roasts served with good selection of fresh veg, roasties, mash and huge yorkshire puddings, all very tasty. Also the home made burger and chips were excellent. Great service, this is a good value, home cooked food, couldn't fault it.

Constantly good Sunday roasts every time we visit as s family. Traditional pub style friendly environment. Good value food. The huge Yorkshire puds are amazing.

Local pub with a step back in time. Open fire in winter months. Locals frequent this pub as well as all ages. Sunday lunch great and all tasty fresh food.

I prefer independent pub food rather than the "chain" variety menus and can recommend The Hawk.

Just back from yet another great Sunday lunch at the Hawk. With living in the village we have been a number of times and have yet to be disappointed. Massive Yorkshire pudding and I chose the lamb today,nice thick cut and plenty of it,with roast and boiled potatoes with 3 fresh veg. Anyone thinking of where to go for a Sunday lunch get on the phone and book this place.

Excellent Sunday roast lunch, very friendly atmosphere and the food was very very good, well prepared and served, the Yorkshire...
