The best restaurants serving Brasserie food in Cheshire East North West

I like this place for the odd buy - like to get something that I wouldn't find elsewhere- but just for that really. I also like it's cosy atmosphere and the fact that there are some rare items. I also particularly like the options at the bakery and the different breads available. The focaccia is really nice and we have bought it two times so far. Some of the salads are nice as well, like the tabbouleh and the butternut squash one. Things I think need improvement: . Some prices are shockingly high- like ice cream is £8 ish for a tub. A bottle of orange juice is also nearly £6, 2 chicken tikka skewers are £12, £12 for a practically mini new york cheesecake. Anyway, as you can see some of the prices don't make sense. . The bakery section is the only place really that has affordable options. The prices in this section are average, like £2.50 for a cupcake, and £3.50 for a chocolate tiffin, is expected nowadays. . I think since this is the farm and they produce some of their own products, they should also be selling their own ice cream, milk, eggs, like many other farms (As I could see another farm's branding on the ice cream tub). We came here for the cafe as well, but unfortunately it's been closed. We were told it will open in 2026. The plan for the new place seems cool though. The customer service was good both times we visited too. All in all, I will be back here for the occasional buy, but I think unless you have a million pounds, you need to pick and choose what you buy so it doesn't add up to £200. I do like to support independent businesses though to where I can, so I am giving this place four stars. I do feel like there is still, regardless, not many places like here in Wilmslow and it is quite unique.

Came in with my parents for a meal and had an amazing experience. The food was exceptional, couldn’t not fault. I had the Katsu Chicken and Crème Brûlée. Service from Paul, Abbie and Eleanor was top notch, all super friendly and helpful!! Couldn’t recommend more.

The Smoker was a nice pub restaurant.Very sadly the thatched roof caught fire on the early evening of Wednesday 23rd October 2024,so will be closed for the foreseeable future I would think. This was reported on local news..it is Very sad.such a lovely atmosphere when I visited a good few years ago.

Had an excellent meal here tonight.nothing was too much trouble for our waiter Peter,really nice friendly guy.food was lovely and also affordable.already booked in with family for the Christmas menu.looking forward to visiting again.

Food was good but service appalling.

Ordered delivery from here,food arrived,very average.noticed an item was missing so rang restaurant and they said we would need to re order.when my wife questioned this they put the phone down on her.wont be ordering from saucy chicks again.
