Well I didn't know what to expect but it wasn't that ....
There are some rules when eating here but that's not surprising. It's not your usual restaurant. Cost is around £35+ per head which is a bit of a shock however the food is of a very high standard and tasted amazing. All staff are friendly and helpful. The restaurant itself is not in the prison but in the grounds in an old chapel. Would I go again 🤔 YES if it was a special occasion.
The welcome, service and food was superb. We went for my mum's birthday who commented how she would have thought she'd need to travel to the centre of Manchester not Buckshaw Village to eat in such a lovely place. Great accolade to help sum up the atmosphere and quality! Feel lucky to have this place on our doorstep.
Bought my Daughter and son in law a £20 gift voucher each for christmas .They visited today and tried to pay with both vouchers but were told they could only use one of the vouchers.Hugely disapointed I would of bought a £40 one if I'd of known this. Think this was a petty decision the vouchers had already been paid for in advance and the names of the recipents given.
Amazing country pub with great food and drink choices.
Plenty of choice on the menu, vegan/vegetarian options also. We had the fish and chips and the vegetarian wellington.
Friendly staff, beer garden and lots of parking spaces.
Will definitely return if passing or in the area.
Amazing little gem in Congleton. A must visit. We arrived without booking and just managed to get a seat so would definitely recommend booking ahead on a Saturday evening. Flavours are unreal and the setting is cozy. Have been here a few times now and never had an experience that wasn’t 5*.
The best gelato we have had in the UK by far!! Love the seasonal flavours. We usually get the tubs, and most of the time these are jam packed, however on the last occasion it was probably only half what we usually get, which was a bit disappointing, but we put this down to new staff and it being busy.
We have visited the restaurant twice & on each occasion enjoyed the food & atmosphere. Aisha was a wonderful host & made sure we were looked after & nothing was too much trouble.
The chaat bombs & mango kulfi went down an absolute treat……delicious!
Definitely will be coming back again & recommend this highly.
First visit to the new venue. Very nice place. Had coffee and cake but seemed to take a while to bring the cake so nearly finished coffee when it arrived.
Four of us visited this restaurant for the first time on Thursday. We had a delicious 3 course meal, we all tried different things.
The ambience was good, the restaurant was nice and warm on a very cold evening and we all agreed that we would return again. My only small gripe is that the men were sitting on wooden chairs that hurt their backs after a while, I was very comfortable on my padded chair!
What a great place! The breakfast was excellent, the decor beautifully done with a mixture of themes and all the staff were fabulously cheerful and helpful. What’s not to like? Great to see an independent doing so well in these days of multinational chains. They have lots of regulars coming in and not surprising! Highly recommended! Thank you to you all.
We found this cafe by chance & were going again this week 01/10/2024 what a cafe. The staff and volunteers (which they have over 70) are really friendly, & as for the food I haven't had a nicer Breakfast. The lady served this on a really hot plate which I was told about & its the first time my breakfast stayed hot throughout, my wife she had eggs on toast & she said the same thing hot throughout. I can't wait to go back & try something else...
IV been meaning to visit here for a while and I'm just gutted I didn't sooner. Vic is honestly the best baker! That's such a bold statement as I have a huge sweet tooth... Everything is made with so much care, thought and skill. The variety is exceptional I'm already planning my next trip to Macclesfield to get some more sweet treats!
Vic was really friendly too, she came out and checked we were ok and happy with everything and spared time to have a quick chat. It was apparent she has so much passion for baking and her shop which she has worked so hard on and it is gorgeous!
Highly recommend this place
