The Old Hall in Cheshire East

Lovely dinner with my sister food,service and setting fabulous thanks

Fantastic place to eat and socialise.

Lovely atmosphere. Warm and relaxing. The food was great, too. Staff were excellent and knew their jobs. Which is not found very often these days.

This is a lovely restaurant with loads of atmosphere and good, varied menus of tasty food. We like to take our visitors here if they want to eat out. Don't forget to take a look at the ladies' toilets, too (ladies only, of course)!

Fantastic service and fresh food to a high standard.

Our go to place for a quite beer with the dog. Good selection of beer and food.

Amazing place, beautifully done out, lots of seating (though it did get quite busy over lunch so would recommend booking). Gorgeous outside area/smoking area. Service was good and the food was fantastic! Good range of choices, very well presented and tasted amazing 🤩 also good sized portions. Would definitely recommend if you're in the area.

Excellent food. We were able to speak normally across the table, even though the pub was quite busy (for food!)

Fantastic night. Good food & service. Can't wait to come back. 😃❤️

Lovely old building. Good disabled access and plenty of tables. Good disabled toilet. Very welcoming staff .Menu very good.Food very good both quiet weekday lunchtime and evenings. Good choice of drinks at the bar .We ve visited many times . Real fire , to add to the welcome too.

Had a lovely meal here, pie, mash and veg (the cabbage was a bit too raw for me though). Pudding was very nice, waffles & fruit. The young man who served us was excellent ‘Joe’, what professional service he gave us, he was so enthusiastic and pleasant with us, definitely a good asset to your team!

If you are eating you can order drinks at the table. If not you either need to queue in the tap room or the nicer lounge bar area adjacent to the restaurant. There is constantly a queue in the public bar (where we don’t choose to drink) and people sitting at the other bar as thee are stools provided. This evening I stood at the end off that bar and was asked to move several times before I dared to suggest it might be better to remove some stools or allow customers to order at the restaurant side of the bar. I received filthy looks from both bar staff and was snapped at by Shona who said “we do have another bar through there” !! (With a massive queue). I spend all week empathising with customers in my full time job and don’t expect to be greeted like that by staff working in hospitality

We went for a meal just my wife and I the food was good but not the best range. The service was excellent and the atmosphere very good. It's a wonderful location and I expect we will return.

Fabulous food and such nice friendly and efficient staff .

Food not up to par. Extremely fatty bacon chop and very firm chips. Service was fantastic and a great outdoor space. Pity about the food.

Very pleasant old world pub excellent choice menu really good value the fish and chips were excellent you also get options on the menu of smaller portions if you want nice touch service was very good and staff were very friendly have been before and it was still excellent

wonderful pub with history and delicious food and friendly service. A great stop alternative to the motorway service station. Thanks so much for a lovely lunch

Always a lovely place to eat with very good staff.

Visited on consecutive weekends for Sunday dinner. Food was fantastic on each occasion and the general ambience was comfortable, convivial and chilled. However, beyond the very satisfactory restaurant experience the biggest plus factor was the superb staff who were very friendly, helpful and efficient across the board. It really does make a difference to a dining experience when the staff take customer service to the next level. Well done to all! Will keep coming back...

We had a great evening. The lamb is absolutely delicious and the beer selection absolutely met our expectations. Unfortunately, the first two types of whiskey we ordered were sold out, but we were served one that was great but wasn't on the menu.

Great menu great environment . Lovely place in sandbach

I really REALLY enjoyed my meal here! The building is lovely, the food was great (big fan of a fondant potato) and the staff were absolutely brilliant. We have some rather specific dietary requirements, which were fabulously catered for by the specific dietary requirements menu. All the wait staff were cheerful, polite and attentive, the atmosphere is lovely, and we left well-stuffed and well looked after. I’d definitely come back again for dinner, or just a drink, if I’m ever in Sandbach again.

Nice, good quality but prices are high.

Wonderful summers evening out, fantastic staff and amazing food. Beautiful location. Thank you to everyone xx

Always a great place to meet friends The service was good and attentive but not oppressive The facilities were clean and well maintained The atmosphere was welcoming and friendly All round a good experience

I love this place with my entire heart, it's my favourite in Sandbach. The food is always delicious and staff members are lovely. The atmosphere inside Old Hall is something unreal, as a non-British person I feel like in a movie every time I visit. The only little thing i would suggest adding is lactose free or alternative milk.

Absolute stunning, staff excellent

Good decision to make a quick detour from the M6 for lunch!

Excellent food and service A beautiful building, tastefully decorated Good value

Really picturesque set in lovely gardens at front and oldy worldly inside. Food was really tasty. Was very busy for a Tuesday lunch time. I just wish the staff wouldn't wear jeans as I think.it looks a little unprofessional.

This place exudes history with a friendly atmosphere. The service and the food were excellent.

It's been a few years since we've eaten here. It's a great location, just off the motorway. It's a lovely old building with a history, but beautifully restored, renovated and revitilised. Great food. But for me the service made this extra special and explained why there was such a lovely atmosphere there. The waiting staff were all so respectful, efficient but engaging and chatty. We had a lovely end to our holiday.

Stopped off during a roadtrip and gosh, it did not disappoint. Ordered the mixed Sunday roast and it was exquisite. Highly recommend. Ladies bathroom is also something to gasp at. Do visit this beautiful establishment- you will be glad you did.

We had a lovely time. Rooms were lovely and clean. And food was great.would recommend Good value for money,staff were very polite

Beautiful food and staff, dropped 2 stars off atmosphere because of a female staff member embarrassing us. Loudly asking us to put our elderly disabled dog on a lead when she was just sat. Put a downer on a lovely visit.

Lovely food and building, staff mostly awesome except one female who embarrassed us in front of other guests, loudly telling me to put my elderly disabled dog on a lead. Dog was sat still by the way. Would not return here nor recommend as she ruined it.

I love this place, we've been several times. Food and beer is great and the town and building lovely 👌

Best place to go in the area....loved it before lockdown...missed it ..look forward to going again soon.. Highly recommend this place..don't need to upgrade my review like Google have asked. It's All good

Really enjoyed our meal, will definitely be coming here again

Great property and atmosphere, parking available.

Beautiful old building with super outdoor seating with sails cover from the midday sun. Staff were very attentive. Had a cheeky white wine spritzer. Food was ok, I had a mushroom burger, perhaps the wrong choice as it was not very tasty. I was expecting a larger mushroom but instead got slices of mushroom that was deep fried in batter. Definitely will go back and try something else on the menu. Beautiful sunny day so that helped!

Great place with superb heritage building and great food to match!

We absolutely love this pub. We travel here for lunch from Leicestershire. We cannot rate the food, staff, and ambience highly enough.

Busy but managed to fit us in but by the outside door, cold until a member of staff closed it. Food quickly served, very tasty. Asked for a coffee, didn't arrive for some time but eventually sorted. Friendly service throughout the meal.

Love the Old Hall, looks stunning throughout, lovely food, great choice of drinks and knowledgeable attentive staff. Had drinks only this time.

Great venue, good cuisine . Service very slow . Chairs very unsupportive for folks with spinal issues and which became very difficult due to said slow service.

absolutely wonderful experience. gorgeous old building, great food, spotless amenities. can’t recommend enough. will definitely return again!

This wonderful medieval Inn is worth a visit to Sandbach alone! But even better, the staff is friendly and the food partly amazing. Try the wonderful burrata! The original gazpacho panna cotta was not ideally paired with an equally intense pesto, but still good. Don’t miss it and take enough time to see the unique Sandbach Crosses and the historic cemetery across the street.

Nice to nip in for a pint or two and I believe the food is good though I haven't eaten there. It is a bit pricey though!

A good place for brunch..nice gardens front and back on a summer's day

They do lilleys mango cider!! Soooo good

Very good place to eat. Excellent service and lovely food and atmosphere.

We came in on Monday afternoon for a small family celebration and was very well looked after by a wonderful young lady. I’m afraid I didn’t get her name, she was very accommodating and the service was top tier. A lovely love to visit.

Had a lovely lunch with my wife and our friend

Lovely spot for refueling in a beautiful setting.

a frequent diner. Always good variety of food. Atmosphere is welcoming

An absolute gem just off the M6...we found it many years ago when looking for an alternative to Sandbach services on the way home and we now regularly stop off as it's just excellent and so quirky and interesting in such a pretty town. food and service excellent and you can even take dogs in , highly recommended

Visited for the first time to meet family. Great atmosphere from the moment we walked through the door. Staff very helpful and efficient. Food was presented well and delicious. Well worth the 50 minute drive to get there.

Fantastic meal as ever wonderful to be outside area

Great food but too much for me so didn't eat it all but excellent nonetheless the dert of a mini waffle was great really good

This is the first restaurant I have been in where you order a second and third coffee and each time you get a little biscuit with the drink. A nice old building.

Called in for a drink today only.walked through with our dog and sat outside at the back. Lovely staff. Asked for a card as we will be back for Sunday lunch which smelt delicious. ❤ 😍 xx

Lovely little pub in the centre of Sandbach, reasonably sized car park. On a way street.

Nice place, big but loads of character. Plenty of gluten free options for those who need it. Slipped a point on service as they brought the wrong wine. Otherwise fab place.

Group of 8 of us had lunch last weekend and every single person who had a roast said it was one of the best they've ever had! Delicious food, excellent service even when nearly full and a beautiful pub. Excellent pub and restaurant!

It’s the first time I’ve been here in a few years and the service has become utterly diabolical. No drinks before food arrived, an over priced burger and chips which Wetherspoon could have made better, and staff that couldn’t be bothered to take payment. I shall not be coming back here again in a hurry. Sort it out.

Decent enough for a quick pint but we did have to wait to be served as they were short staffed. Would recommend.

Beers can be a bit hit and miss, but are sometimes lovely. Can get very busy. Staff are always great

Lovely pub, great service, good food. A nice place to stop.

Everything you hope for in a pub. The menu was varied and every item we had was delicious and beautifully presented. There was a good choice of beers, service was spot on and the character of the building was second to none.

Fairly quiet midweek meal out, really tasty food, amazing building, semi-palatial toilets. No background music or TV - really lovely: enabled necessary conversation.

Lovely staff amazing GF VG food !

I hope this restaurant isn't going downhill.... In summary, good food, poor slow service. Not as good as other places in Sandbach. Food was good but very slow service which was frustrating when we had two children with us. When we were served, the staff were pleasant. I expected better attendance for the price. It felt like hard work to get attention and service. The general manager was dismissive when we complained and begrudgingly provided discount off the bill after some awkward negotiation.

Wonderful place food excellent, 100%enjoyable but a bit chilly heat wise

One of the most beautiful, and historical buildings you could eat in, and a lovely setting with the impressive church in the background. Great food well presented, nice staff and good atmosphere. Highly recommend

Lovely atmosphere. Everyone enjoyed their food and drinks. Even being busy didn't stop them from making sure everything was ok for us☺️

Fabulous evening with family and friends could not fault anything at all, which is why I gave a five-star review. we will definitely be back again very sòon thank you to all the staff 🙏 😀 🙌

Amazing 17th century, Grade 1 listed building so full of history! The food, however, was very up to date! Beautifully fresh salad with a lovely dressing, crispy ciabatta, warmed perfectly with bacon and brie and lovely cranberry sauce. A perfect brewed pot of tea, almost big enough to bathe in. Served with a smile and quickly, considering they were packed out. We will definitely be going back!

Fab location for lunch! Lovely mix of old and new loved the beams 😀 Food was really good too, will definitely be returning

Lovely evening with friends. Service and food was excellent

A welcome return to this lovely old hall and its staff. This visit it was better than ever. Very busy Tuesday lunchtime but the staff kept smiling and look ed after us well. For staters we chose thye pate with an apricot chutney that addedreal balance, and the blackpudding and pancetta croquettes. Somethin a bit diffrent, and again with lovely flavours. Main was the salmon and cod fishcakes (always reliable) and the fish and chips. The fish has probably got a bit smaller in recent times, but it is still substantial, and the smaller portion means less of astruggle to clear the plate. A lovely lunch ... so until next time ... thank you!!

Had some lovely food and great service.

The nutroast was fantastic and I'm not a vegetarian!

Always great food and service. Great choice of wine. Cheese, onion & potato pie delicious. Lovely relaxing lunch on Friday

Beautiful building with History. Just a pleasure to drink and eat in excellent surroundings. 6 real ales. Highly Recommended

Lovely place which is always a great atmosphere to either grab a quick drink or some good pub food. Make sure to book!

What a building! Beautiful in appearance, and appeared in most haunted I believe too! The food was exceptional, the Sunday Roast was delicious and the staff were attentive to our requests throughout. I can't fault this place one but, great parking, great decor, great people, great food, the reviews are true to word. Get yourself down here

We called in for lunch to break up our long journey from the New Forest to Scotland. The food was lovely, staff friendly and polite and the Old Hall is such a lovely building, full of character and charm. The toilets are amazing! So spacious and immaculately clean, which my mother use to say is always a good sign for a restaurant! We would definitely visit again.

Nice food and excellent service

Excellent all round. Will be back soon.

Great family lunch time for a New Year celebration.

This is a fabulous traditional English pub/restaurant. Service was outstanding and the food was exquisite. Great range of dishes on the menu. 10 out of 10. A must visit if near the area (Dog friendly too).

Excellent evening, booked again for New Year

Great place with attentive staff. A few cask ales soon ran out. But it was the week before Christmas.

Waitress looked like she was chewing a wasp. Car park is a health and safety issue as well. Better options available in Sandbach.

Top notch food cooked to perfection. Great and friendly service. Will return soon.

Terrible. We went for Christmas Dinner and without fear of exaggeration, I have had nicer microwave meals.

The food and service were excellent, old world atmosphere

Really nice pub. Lots of tables. Big bar area and eating areas. Very dog friendly
