Got a couple of drinks in a very nice country pub. Trappers Hat beer was exceptional served by friendly staff. Will likely return for the Toasties which look delicious...

Wanted to go to a decent independent pub that served food rather than a chain like Green King etc. Went to a table followed by a waitress who gave us menus and took drinks order. When she came back with drinks we ordered food, my wife went for corn beef hash cake and I ordered a Full House (bacon, black pudding and tomato on toast). The hash cake was like baby food in batter and the 'home made' brown sauce was disgusting, my sandwich was quite bland and the toasted bread was limp. The overall impression of the pub was gloomy, will not be going back. Wish we had gone to a Green King!

Not only is the Wheatsheaf (The Thatch to locals) a beautiful pub with a great menu. They also manage to make the best Espresso Martini’s. Insider tip. Try the Rumtini version. It’s epic. Definitely worth the trip.

This is a beautiful, quaint old pub, but with a converted cowshed, so plenty of space for large groups. I booked lunch for 20 people for my dad’s 75th birthday, and it was fantastic. All the staff were absolutely wonderful at looking after our party, service was perfect and the food was absolutely delicious. We’ll be back!

First visit to eat. Unfortunately my burger was a bit burnt round the edges, managed to cut it away and eat the rest. What I had was tasty. This was mentioned to our waiter and he apologised. My husband's bean chilli was fine. Generally quite expensive but it seems all pubs are bringing their food prices in line with restaurants these days. The jury is out as to whether we'll visit again as there is plenty of choice on the wirral.

Holiday recovery tea to restore and replenish. Tremendous steak pie accompanied with gravy,mushy peas and chips. Piping hot, just what the traveler needed. Cheeky scampi and fries as other main, fabulous value for money as always and cooked to perfection. Wonderful service by Katrina as usual, is there anyone as good? Managed by Ben who runs the whole operation flawlessly, even with new staff and many covers. "Yes darling", great to be home.

I had told the staff to keep the change an then when I realised the prices hadn't added up, an I questioned the bill, I was told that will be the service charge.. i tip staff. But I'd have liked to be informed before hand. Still had a lovely toastys , plenty to chose from

You would never know it's there as it hides in a little lane off Raby Mere Rd. But it's well worth finding. It's a lovely old thatched house that was built in 1611 according to the brick over the doorway. The interior looks very original and can't have changed much since it was built. There's a big old fireplace that's great in the Winter. Good selection of beers and real ales. Service was very good and quick.

I called here yesterday with my friend for lunch. Staff were very helpful however I was very disappointed with my meal. I ordered roast chicken skinny fries and coleslaw. I asked if I could have mashed potato instead and advised this would be no problem. When my meal arrived it need gravy which I asked for, this meal cost £13.50 ish or do I thought . I settled the bill after payment I realised I’d been charged £2.90 for gravy !! Disappointing not sure I would go again for this type of food as it was quite expensive for what I got.

Very dissapointed indeed that I want to reserve a table outside for my family birthday and bring our family doggie...only to he told no ...the gentleman said its highly unusual not to get a table but why is not possible to be able then to save one so we are able to be assured our birthday celebration goes with no problems ...being in the catering business for many years I find this extremely odd .. .customer service is the most important factor of trying to help your customers as much as possible but this pub obviously doesn't need customers or willing to accommodate 10 members of our family who would have enjoyed such a lovely place .I'm sure another pub will greet us with the respect needed for our special occasion and be happy to receive our custom.

Prawn cocktail served on a plate (I think the word "cocktail" should tell them it should be in a glass!) Lettuce was not chopped, no slice of lemon and no tomato. Also they had put pepper/spice on the prawns!. Roast dinner (this was a Sunday) only meats available where beef (very chewy ) and lamb (we were there quite early so it wasn't that they had run out of turkey/chicken). Every thing was piled up in the middle of the plate and looked a mess. Used to love going there but won't be going anymore. Will be going to the Boathouse Parkgate from now on, about the same price but much better food and excellent service.
