The best restaurants serving British food in Tarvin and Kelsall Cheshire West and Chester North West

I was driving on my way to Conwy and needed a comfort break and some lunch. What a lovely welcome I had ........ just genuine, not put on. The pub wasn't stylish (more old fashioned in a good way) but very comfortable. I had a fish finger baguette as they didn't have any sandwiches that I liked. Wow ........... !! It was so nicely presented and the side salad was all fresh and delicious. Chips too which I wasn't expecting. To be honest I couldn't manage all of it as there was such a lot. Excellent value that couldn't be beat!!

Gorgeous coffee - makes a change in Kelsall I can’t recommend this place enough, the coffee is just wonderful!!!!!!!!!

This was our third visit to Okells, and again, we were not disappointed. Even though it was quite busy, we found a table pretty quickly and then placed our order. The coffees came quite quickly, but the food order was a tad slow. However, the staff were busy rushing around and about, so I suppose that's just the way it goes sometimes. When the food arrived, we weren't disappointed, and we enjoyed 2 decent portions of quiche with salad and coleslaw. Only one small niggle..... the coleslaw was a bit salty for our taste. And if we have to be really picky, we would preferred our coffees after our meals. Maybe I should have told the staff of our preference?? Nevertheless, we enjoyed our meals and we'll be back again in a few months. Oh, and one more thing to mention....... most of the staff were very friendly, and helped us when we had questions to ask.

30/09/24: Popped in for breakfast with friends and the obligatory mooch around J&S. Full English breakfast and a mug of tea is value for money and can set you up for the day. The decor is nothing special, but as it's predominantly a bikers' café that's not what it's about. The tables are big enough and spaced out well enough to be comfortable with biker clobber on, but it can get a bit noisy when it's busy and, as it's popular, it does get busy, especially in biking season. There are some back issues of bike-related mags if you fancy a read during your visit, and there is some outside seating for when the sun puts in an appearance, but this is a bit tired and could use a refresh. Service is generally dependable, but can be variable and depends on who is on shift. We've always got what we ordered, but some of the staff have in the past been miserable or surly, which takes the edge off a generally good experience.

Brilliant pub friendly bar staff great atmosphere. Family days and bbqs had a great time for a friends get together

Hi there, we attended a Diamond Wedding Anniversary party and very much enjoyed the food, atmosphere, venue and the gardens. Thanks very much to all the staff who were very helpful, and to the catering staff.

I really do believe that the Fishpool is one of the best family pubs in Cheshire. We’ve been coming since it opened and I can honestly say we have never had a bad meal. We now have a toddler and the staff really do help to make the whole dining out experience enjoyable for you. The children’s menu is also fantastic - my daughter loves it. The chilli beef salad is by far one of the best we have ever tasted (and we have tried quite a few) and one I will definitely be thinking about for a long time! The manager, Barry is also fantastic - he really goes out of his way to welcome you - it does also help he’s a Liverpool supporter!! Finally the fires, no country pub is complete without a roaring fire and the Fishpool doesn’t disappoint, their fire is always so welcoming! Perfect country pub in my opinion!!

Steak ciabbatas awful. Steak tough and sinewy, no taste. Onions should have been caramelised to at least have some taste. The price was far too much for the meals we received. Disappointing.
