The best restaurants serving British food in Cheshire East North West

What a great pub , welcomed by Paula , 40 + of us descended on her and her team for a pre wedding drink , which turned into everyone ordering food , the poor guy in the kitchen was run ragged , the food was good the drinks were reasonable for Knutsford . Thanks a lot you were all brilliant !

Came in for a family meal the other day. A new landlord is settling in and it's going well. There was little to no wait on food. All the staff took care of us. Will be visiting again soon.

Excellent pub food, in a great location and extra friendly staff. i could not recommend this place highly enough, classic pub grub, good value, hospitable hosts. great outside seating area, this place is a credit to the management team.

Absolutely amazing staff! Stunning food couldn't fualt it Definitely will be coming here again! Would 100% recommend coming here.

Always lovely and cosy, one of our winter favourites, friendly staff nice glass of red and bar nibbles after a dog walk 🐾🍷

Sales pitched us while having a go at the rail ale - “come have a look at my pub -the railway inn better than the others blah blah See for yourself It was an average chav pub understaffed and one of the staff and the owner was drunk one real ale available Owner kept banging on about real chips we asked for some at 730pm told there was a big group coming so they couldn’t do it - no big group came The opposite effect for us to wasting money in that place is - next rail ale we will avoid going to that place sorry I don’t usually give bad reviews but your happy to diss other nice pubs which are better so you deserve this review.

Lovely pub located by the canal. We had lunch when visiting some friends who have a canal boat and were assisting them with the locks. I have been to the Shroppie Fly some years earlier when visiting them, and as it was the height of summer the pub car park was full. So despite some negative reviews, I found parking a lot easier and Mike kindly allowed us to park our car overnight having asked and made ourselves known.

Suddenly, there are signs up saying 'No Dogs'. This is a country pub, close to a park popular with dogwalkers. This seems a very backward step.

Beautiful traditional pub, very welcoming and friendly with a great selection of food which was fairly priced. A great evening and we will be returning soon!

Just great place brilliant night out

Used to be quite good, but gone down the pan. Soup, now I can make better. Appearance and texture of cheap packet stuff. Chips, now how do you manage to serve hot chips and cold chips in the same serving? Poached salmon fillet; thin piece of tail end, over cooked and dry. Got to get your own cutlery, sort of like self service. Staff doing their best, but run off their feet. Really disappointing and dare I say it, overpriced 🫤

Booked a groupon for afternoon tea for my daughter’s birthday. The deal was for 4 people. My 2 daughters obviously weren’t going have tea or coffee and when the waitress declined a hot chocolate (which we had no issues with), she offered them a glass of water instead. Seeing as we’d paid for 4 people I think a glass of squash for them wasn’t really too much to offer. There were no sausage rolls/cheese wellingtons as stated on menu, so we were given lots and lots of finger sandwiches. Unfortunately they were all tasteless. We’d had nothing since breakfast and still they tasted so bland. The scones were so soft they were falling to pieces as we spread jam on them. The cakes weren’t at all inspiring. The macaroon was the only thing that was average. The room itself was so hot and made the meal even more uncomfortable. A thoroughly disappointing experience. I’m glad we booked a groupon for it but still found it a waste of money. A shame really as I was planning to return for the Sunday roast deal. The location is breathtaking but completely ruined by the lack of quality of the food.

The staff were excellent and extremely accommodating when we came to celebrate my Nannas 85th Birthday! They honestly couldn’t do enough! We will be back!

We went to this restaurant last August for lunch and the food was amazing with hardly any waiting time. However, we decided to try for lunch again this weekend and the difference was upsetting. I stood in the queue behind five or six people and there was a chalkboard with "30 minutes wait for food" written on it. Okay so 30 mins, not too long to wait, but as I moved down the queue it got updated to 40 minutes then 60 minutes. No way is it acceptable to wait 60 minutes for food! The tea would have been cold after 15 minutes. Would they have replaced with a fresh pot. I don't think so. This is such a joke to expect people to wait for an hour for a meal. Come on STRIKES. Get more staff, you must be able to afford it. Shall not be back until they improve the waiting times.

We booked for my birthday and thought we would have a nice tea and it was truly awful! Weak and cheap coffee, dry cakes and small sandwiches!!! So awful 😞 the bar manager was lovely and gave us a 100% discount… will not return 🤮🤢
