We visited here as a very large group with 4 dogs and all of the staff made us feel very welcome from the beginning. They were running a little late getting all of the tables ready for us with there being so many of us but they kept us informed and gave us some free Prosecco as a way of apology which went down a treat and we were very grateful for! We would like to say a massive thank you to GRACE for the fantastic service all the way through our meal. She was great with our dogs, getting water for them and helping us to organise/split our bill up for us at the end. We had a fantastic afternoon and will 100% be returning! The carvery was also extremely tasty and can’t fault our experience! The scrolls and potted plants were also an amazing and thoughtful addition to the experience! Thank you!

Not bad carvery, waitress very lovely, but in our opinion ( went with hubby) to many dogs, and to many small children ( crying children) and also a little overpriced @ £17.50 each, although it's all you can eat, if you can eat lots, it's a bargain, if you don't mind dog's and kids, you will love it x don't think we will visit again!

Lovely breakfast, served by a very pleasant server who was attentive but not fussy and looked after us. The breakfast buffet was good quality and hot , included a lovely Coffee and even omelettes if you wanted one . Wouldn’t hesitate to return even the dog was looked after and we sat in the very clean area where pets were allowed .

Wet average to poor food. My steak sandwich had the toughest piece of meat I’ve ever had. Soup came with no bread and it was brought out together. Seemed frantic. One very nice waitress as earned the two stars. I should have got her name. Otherwise very poor.

I will start with a positive - some of the younger staff were lovely, attentive and very helpful. However, I wasn't impressed with a lot of things on my visit with a friend today. The attitude of the staff member serving our drinks wasn't great after my friend telling him to not handle the rim of her coffee cup, he proceeded to do just that whilst telling her he hadn't touched the rim. Saucers were swimming with the drinks we ordered. Drinks weren't even hot. Cutlery and napkins weren't clean. My food came in a bowl sat on top of a serving plate which had bits of food on it that wasn't mine. My friend's chips were not hot. When the same staff member came to take our plates/bowls away and asked how our food was, he didn't like our response and even when I mentioned the food on my serving plate, he joked that it was free extras. He advised my friend that he would remove the chips from the bill, however when we got the bill, there was an additional £5 added to it, which when questioned couldn't be explained. It was removed because I said I wasn't paying it. Not a great experience all round

Ordered the bacon barm off the breakfast menu. It arrived on very thin sliced doughy bread plastered with some kind of spread (not butter!). When asked by I presume who was the manager what the problem was and I told him, he showed no concern at all and then simply walked off. I was still charged the full price. I certainly will not be eating there again…. Terrible customer service!

Drove by and decided to stop with some friends after seeing the sign. Quirky little cafe style restaurant is in a pretty pleasant area, lots of fields around and a mini village of shops and other things to do. Food selection is very varied, one of my friends being vegan due to allergies was catered for amazingly! Never expected a little place like this to be nestled in Cheshire.

We went to this place on the 26th August myself husband & granddaughter, after looking at the outside menu we decided to eat, I then went to the table where the condiments were picked up tomato ketchup brown sauce & mayo salt & pepper placed them down on the table, then the manager came out so I asked him if we could eat at this table it was at the back, he replied yes but you have to go to the bar to order then I noticed he was taken all the condiments away so I asked him what are you doing, well his reply shocked me he said you are stealing, I said I'm not then he returned to the restaurant, I picked up the sauces took them back inside & handed them to the waitress & told her I didn't steal them, by this time I was close to tears, then the manager came back & said that it was a miss understanding, so I asked him who said I was stealing? he told me it was a young girl at the table by the bar, as I now know is the owners daughter, I was totally shocked, now this all happened after I asked for a table so I left, then I went round to the customer service point, by this time I was crying I asked for the owner contact details but they couldn't give them to me, so I left my name 2 phone numbers it's now Friday still not heard anything from the owner???

We have just eaten at the restaurant and have had a wonderful experience. One of the children has allergies and Andy was so understanding and helpful.

We came here for mother's day for afternoon tea. It was incredibly busy as expected but we had booked in advance and were seated in good time. Service was fine and the afternoon tea spread was brilliant but I was disgusted at the behaviour of some of the dogs in the restaurant. One dog on the table to the left of us, weed on the floor. The owners were completely oblivious and there was a puddle of dog urine under the table and the dog was hiding under there trembling the whole time. Did the dog want to be there? Probably not. Others were barking, sat on laps eating from their owner's plates and some dogs were lying in the way (in dog beds) of wheelchairs and pushchairs. I don't understand why establishments have recently opened the floodgates to dogs as there doesn't seem to be any regulation of their behaviour. There isn't enough room for them and encouraging them to beg at the table is poor behaviour. It was a loud, busy environment and this would be stressful for any dog, no matter how well behaved. We left our dog at home because she would have hated it. It was too busy. I don't find it particularly hygienic to eat in a restaurant full of dogs, especially if they've been licking the plates or coming up to the table. Interesting that when dining with my small children, I was receiving daggers when they were getting bored (waiting for the bill which took a while) but dogs were absolutely fine to misbehave. Is this a family friendly restaurant? I don't know any more. It seems dogs are more welcome than children.

We called in for lunch on Mother's Day (having foolishly not booked) a lovely lady called Debbie found us a table and introduced us to our waitress called Grace. Grace couldn't do enough to help us and we didn't feel rushed at all. Despite how busy it was, the food and service were exceptional. It's extremely hard to find good staff these days but they've come up trumps with Grace. She is exceptionally well mannered and professional. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

There seem to be a number of recent reviews of this venue that we have to say we couldn’t tie up with our lunch experience today. We thought it was quite ok, in fact a bit of allright, fairly good value and probably better than a slightly more upmarket place (no names here) further down the A49 that we also checked out. We opted for a filled chiabatta and tea/coffee each. Service good, wait time well within what we’d expect at a busy Saturday lunchtime. Fine. We did think the coffee was a tad expensive, and the loos didn’t quite match up to everything else but were nevertheless quite acceptable.

The drinks came in what I would describe as an ordinary sized cup and the scone very nicely presented on a slate.I paid the bill, contactless of course, and on checking it at home saw that the scone had cost £4.95!!! I couldn't check beforehand as scones aren't mentioned on the menu. It was listed on the bill as "special of the day".We used to go there often but I think it will be a very long time before we go again.

We called in today for lunch. A very nice restaurant with a lovely ambience and probably less than half full. We ordered a two course meal and drinks. We had barely sat down when the soups (starters) arrived. A fairly small bowl was accompanied by a decent and tasty slice of bread. The soup was hot and thick and we agreed it was just about good value for money (£4.50). We waited almost half an hour for our next course even though the restaurant had emptied out considerably by then. When it finally arrived we were very disappointed. The 'toasted ciabatta with hummus and red pepper' was about 4 inches wide and accompanied by a few limp salad leaves, half a cherry tomato and a slice of cucumber. This was £6.50 !! Now it is a long tome since we've been ripped off that badly so we won't be returning. I would say to the management, take a long hard look at your pricing structure, ask yourselves why your restaurant wasn't busy and bustling at lunchtime the week before Christmas and give your customers value for money otherwise, like us, they won't return for a mugging a second time.

We called here for the sunday lunch carvery. The meal was very nice and the staff pleasant however i must say the plates that the carvery is served on are far too small. Even if you wanted a small amount of everything on offer there isn,t the space on the plate. This leads me to believe that these guys know how to play the game in providing insufficient sized plates and so smaller portions are taken and we the customer still shelling out over £10 EACH just for ONE course. C,mon guys get your act together. CUSTOMERS DID NOT COME DOWN IN THE LAST SHOWER, PLEASE CREDIT US WITH SOME INTELLIGENCE!!!!!

Called on a damp Sunday afternoon, had a look around the shops then decided to have lunch. Quite busy but friendly staff found us a clean table quickly. Have to order at the counter yourself and carry your drinks - quite tricky in a busy restaurant with tables fairly close together. We also had a baby in a high chair situated next to our table so I was worried in case I knocked her. We ordered four Sunday lunches and went to queue at the carvery. Good portion of meat served along with Yorkshire puddings and pigs in blankets. Selection of vegetables - mashed and roast potatoes, cauliflower cheese, green beans, broccoli and cabbage. All tasty but I found everything too salty for my taste. Condiments, cutlery and kids crayons/drawing paper were situated right by the queue for food and staff entrance door - all very busy in that area.Would return if visiting Blakemere Village.

My sister had the vegetarian option mushroom wellington and that was lovely too. Not a bad word to say about the carvery 5 clean plates. Pudding was delicious The staff were so attentive to you, couldn’t be any more helpful. Probably the best group of staff in a restaurant that I have been into for a long time. Definitely going back

Both my husband and I had a terrible meal . There was a choice of gammon, beef and pork ( I had to ask what it was !!) I really struggled to even cut through the gammon and my husband couldn’t even eat the beef as it was too tough to cut let alone eat !!

The title says it all! Excellent carvery, good choice of meats and vegetables and very friendly staff. Thanks to Debra for being so helpful when I was making initial enquiries.

We went to the restaurant for lunch. I had the 'special' - ham, egg and chips. The ham was tough as old boots, the egg was swimming in oil and the chips weren't that good either.

We visited this restaurant when it was steak night and were very impressed,we were presented with 8oz steaks of our choice with chunky hand cut chips and huge homemade onion rings along with fresh vegetables.The steak was cooked to perfection and beautifully presented the service from staff was excellent as always and they all looked extremely smart wearing a new uniform and friendly smile.You can't go wrong with this place they had something on the menu for everyone the car very and breakfast buffet are something not to be missed too.

Called in for a children’s lunchbox and was amazed to be charged £6.50! The lunch box contained a small bap, an apple, a pack of crisps and a Capri sun drink. I would love to know the break down of the costs for each item as I can only assume they are inflated for the privilege of having them presented in a cardboard box. Avoid at all costs

I have been today and the food has gone down hill I have never had a problem the other times I have been but today, firstly my mum got chilli jacket potato and she found a huge hair in the chilli and it wasnt just lay on the top it had been cooked in it, my daughter then said she didn’t like the food she has then tonight brought it all back up, so they mustn’t have been cooked properly, not one of the staff apologise to my mum for the hair she had to tell them that she didn’t want the same food as they were just going to change it for an new one there was no option of a refund she just had to have a different topping. I can honestly say I won’t be going again.

Eighteen of us called in today for a coffee/snack mid-morning whilst out walking. Had previously mentioned our visit to staff and checked again via Facebook that all was ok - communication was excellent. Staff were waiting and ready to serve and everyone was dealt with quickly, courteously and efficiently. An area had thoughtfully been put aside for us inside but was not needed as we all chose to sit outside in the sunshine. Tables were quickly cleared as we were leaving. Some commented that the coffee was pricey but all around it was a great visit, we would definitely recommend and will probably return. Thanks to staff.

Had something to eat here after doing a Segway activity in the village. Got a table straight away, it is order yourself at the bar/counter. Reasonably priced and lovely food. Would recommend the panninis.

Just had a delicious Sunday Roast dinner. Everything was delicious hot and tasty. It was very busy but we were seated quickly and attended to by the excellent hostess. She was so good I asked her,her name it was Aga. We’ve been before and we’ll definitely go back. We thoroughly recommend.

The worst afternoon tea I have ever experienced. I booked an afternoon tea for four through Groupon as a Christmas gift for some of my close friends. I booked online as stated for 4pm on a Friday evening.

Since retiring my wife and I eat out quite often but until yesterday we had never eaten at The Village Restaurant at Blakemere even though we only live a mile away. Our experience has inspired me to join TripAdvisor in order to express how impressed we were with the meal, I had stake pie and my wife had cottage pie, both were piping hot and and very tasty. We are hard pressed to think of anywhere else in the area that offers better value for money.

We stayed in Cheshire Oaks and this place was close to where we stayed that did a full English breakfast so naturally went here. The queue for ordering was quite busy and the one server on the bar was really coping well considering she was the only one available to take orders. I ordered our breakfasts and for the price, you really can’t complain at all but they really could do with more staff. We waited over forty minutes for a full English breakfast and scrambled eggs on toast. When we had it, the one server apologised for the wait but again, no fault of his own as he was also the only one serving and there were tables ranging from two people to eight people. The food wasn’t hot but wasn’t stone cold either but like other tables, drinks were finished before having breakfast. The only thing the place lacks is staff. If the two on breakfast today, had some support, even just an extra pair of hands, there would be more support not only to the staff working but to the benefit of the customer too.

Great pub with great food, great staff and ale. Abbey does an excellent expresso martini....... The wife said it was one of the best she has had in a long 👏

This was one of the worst restaurants I’ve ever been to. The cheese pie tasteless and it was something to be desired. It was mushy and the pastry was rockhard and strange looking .Burgers tasted fishy. Suffice to say I was ill after it so I’m not tempted to order food there again.one positive note is that the cakes are okay.
