The best restaurants serving Default food in Willaston and Thornton Cheshire West and Chester North West

Looking for an al fresco coffee? Quirky setting? Sunny aspect? Then look no further. The Platform Pedaller is located on the platform of the former Hadlow Road station in Willaston. The station has been preserved as it was in the 1950's with old metal advertisements. The cafe is currently outdoor but the proprietors are due to open the station masters house soon. Yesterday, our cycling group of 27 called in for coffee. Our customer experience was exceptional. I'll start with the coffee - superb blend dreamed up by Emily, who served us all quickly, efficiently and smilingly. The sunny aspect and traffic free location make this a great pace for a break. Easy access toilets in the old waiting room. Ideal for cyclists, walkers, dog walkers, runners and equestrians. Free car parking too. We will certainly be back!

Didn't have food. Just popped in for a couple of drinks before a party. Was a nice, friendly atmosphere, and I'm told the beer garden is beautiful, but I'm yet to see it as it was raining and cold when we went!

Our local. It isn't actually a hotel. It's a sizzling pub.

We walked in without a booking on a busy Saturday night. They still found us a fantastic table. Service was very friendly , food was amazing and prices very helpful to the wallet . For me though it was the choices on the menu that really wowed us. There were four pages of choices ranging from a sandwich to a full on steak dinner. You can have small starter or a huge plate of food. There is so much choice. But best of all no time frames. You can have a steak at 1pm or a sandwich 10pm. The Chef or manager has really got it right at this place. Just go its a fab place eat.

Breakfast was excellent and very good value. The price of the cooked breakfast includes fruit juice, hot drinks, ceral and fruit. We will be back.

We often visit this cafe for coffee and cake while out walking . Today we were a group of 6 family ,including elderly relatives. We were sat in one of the rooms inside. The staff were very attentive and friendly . We ordered both the small and large breakfasts along with coffees and tea. The food was very good . Lovely and hot and well presented . It was nice that 2 different members of staff checked all was OK with the food. The cafe has a loyalty card scheme, where you gain a stamp every time you order a hot drink. When the card is full you can get a free drink.

Food was lovely, great surroundings.

Overpriced pub grub, very limited menu.

Found this little pub by chance, really good food and a home made rice pudding that I remember as kid, nice atmosphere,and the staff were really friendly, tried to back again but fully booked and no room at the inn, gutted.

Stayed here a few times. Staff very friendly. The building outside is looking a bit tired and paths and carpark could do with a clean. A few huge holes in the car park need filling as very deep. Regular free WiFi is rubbish but you can upgrade your WiFi at an extra charge but for what you pay for your room this is a bit expensive. If staying a few nights you have to request at reception if you require room service.

A wonderful friendly warm welcome by the 2 ladies who were happy to answer and reassure me regarding allergy concerns, helping to make considered recommendations. The cafe was warm, clean and a great menu. Lovely quality food and drink. I loved my gingerbread latte, very festive!

Excellent, attentive staff. Beautiful food and a great quality pint. There is a great adventure playground for the kids. Always a joy to visit Pollards.

Food was OK.. nothing special, just ok!

Seemed understaffed throughout our visit, not sure what was going on, but our waiter Matt handled every table with ease and made our experience not just enjoyable but unforgettable. Had a good laugh and everything was clean. Food was also delicious - pizza was huge (and very reasonably priced), sea bass cooked well too. Our only regret was that we were too full for desserts. Can’t wait to return - but we do hope they sort out the staffing issue to take the pressure off!

Counter staff a disgrace. Looked sulky unapproachable and angry. If she can’t smile or look welcoming she shouldn’t work serving the cakes and dealing with customers.
