Wining and dining in cheshire

“The staff here have great knowledge and are incredibly helpful. I requested a case of 12 wines as a gift and the packaging and presentation were fabulous. I massively appreciate what a briliant job Keith did with all of it - the extra little touches elevated it brilliantly. Big thanks again - much appreciated!”

“First time visit to MC on Gemini park in Warrington. We were definitely not let down by some fabulous food, professional staff and allround stunning dining experience. My sons 18th birthday lunch, we covered steak, pork tomahawk, grilled salmon and calamari. All wonderfully cooked and presented. Excellent staff service who made the lunch a pleasure to eat there. Thanks Kadie. Go enjoy a special occasion at MC you will not be disappointed.”

“First time dining there tonight and we can’t wait to be back! Shocked we had a hidden gem on our doorstep and didn’t realise. We had a mix of Sunday lunches, burgers and steak at our table and there wasn’t a bad thing to say about it. The beef on the roast literally melted on your tongue. Very good staff who checked up on us a lot to make sure we had everything we wanted. Many thanks to Jason as well, he was fab looking after us, very approachable and witty, which made the meal even better. We will be back soon!”

“We came for the bottomless brunch for my daughters birthday. The service from Issy was fantastic. The food was also great. I couldn't recommend this place enough. Prices very reasonable. Would definitely visit again.”

“Nice cosy pub. Great selection of various cask & lagers sprits. Polite friendly staff. Band that was on was too loud although but other than that great atmosphere”

“Seating is available upstairs and downstairs . Welcoming atmosphere . Good selection of Mediterranean based food , which was so good ! And beautifully presented . The waiters are brilliant , attentive, and knowledgeable with what the restaurant has to offer, we couldn't fault anything , we will definitely be going back 10/10”

“Love it here, food is great, comes quick, always busy but always has a spot got you to sit at. It’s the nicest food ever! 10/10”

“Amazing food, great service and unusual idea, all you can eat steak with the system of controlling when you wish to be served again by flipping the card from green to red. We visited last night for the first time and left really full and impressed. This is definitely not our last visit,the next time will probably come for bottomless service so drinks could flow as well. It's not cheap but it is worth the money. Everyone from the staff was very friendly and welcoming, the whole experience was just unforgettable including the deco and music. Thank you for having us and making our anniversary so special. See you again soon!”

“Visited for a friends birthday in January and had great service. The food was delicious and well priced. Staff were very busy but still smiling. Will defiantly be back.”

“Tried here for the first time today when we arrived we were greeted with open arms and seated straight away which was a shock because it was soooo busy..the food was really good with a very generous portion and really good value for money.. Drinks menu was massive and beer and cider was so cheap.. Excellent place and well worth a visit..”

“Tasty Turkish breakfast and nice atmosphere.”

“Full marks for the team at Istanbul. Very friendly service, perfectly cooked food and all at a reasonable price. We've been before and we'll be going again and the atmosphere is always really relaxed despite it being very busy. Fantastic Turkish restaurant, thank you to the team who looked after us both.”

“Family meal, first visit. What a lovely place. Such a friendly welcome and great service. The food was excellent, the best italian I have eaten for a long time. Varied choices all got great reactions. This was the first visit but we will be back.”

“Amazing food always, well establishment food for nearly 30 years”

“Lidia was extremely professional and very friendly as always...! The food was also very good...! We had arrabiata with prawns and it was gorgeous..! We will be back soon...! Until then....”

“Last week we were [invited] to Sotto for "Tales of the Med" with Stir by night which involved bottomless tapas, paella, pizza and pasta Sotto is a fusion of Spanish and Italian cuisines which has resulted in a combination of homely, fresh food made with passion. Our night began with a coktail, the first of many....so the concept for this night was to bring s bottle of spirits which the @stirbynight guys would craft into genius cocktails as we feasted. I was very impressed with every drink they made with my favourite being gin based and served in a glass of powered beetroots, this resulted in a vibrant shokicng pink cocktail The food was crazy. Not just in flavour but in quantity! I have never been so full that I have had to force myself to eat mushroom and truffle ravioli before, it's a favourite of mine and I was tortured by its beautiful smell as I collapsed in a glutenous heap We were served pizza, Spanish tortilla, patatas bravas and olives before a very unique dish was served (The 4th picture) At first glance I thought this was a paella, but it was actually made of pasta cut finely and cooked with clams and parsley. It was very unusual and like nothing I've had before, personally I did not enjoy this as much as the actual paella that was served later on The chicken paella was absolutely beautiful, it was cooked in a traditional method from the region of Spain the owner Athena is from. I filled up on this a bit too much but paella is up there in the lisy of my favourite foods My favourite dish was the deep fried ravioli! Stuffed with spinach and ricotta, deep fried and topped with a tomato based sauce with Chorizo. This was incredible!! Definitely an amazing invention and a trend needing to kick off Overall we had an amazing experience, theres too much food to talk about. Big thank you to Sotto and Stir by Night for having us. Check out Sotto's website for more info on the bottomless tapas night and also read up the VIVA magazine review on google @robbie.reviews on Instagram”

“Just had a lovely family lunch here, I can highly recommend the fish and chips, although all the meals looked delicious. The staff are friendly and helpful, the pub is cosy with a great beer garden that has a selection of climbing frames for the kids. Would definitely recommend a visit.”

“Great pub, great quiz, great snacks, great range of drinks.”

“Arranged a meal for family for my husbands 85th birthday. We were looked after by Francine & Lara they were so attentive to my husband & the children. The service was excellent & food first class. Thoroughly enjoyed are visit.”

“Love this place! amazing staff and always have a lovely time when I come in .. always friendly 10/10 xxx”

“An incredible selection of draught beers, but one of the rarest of them all, Bass, is here on tap. It's worth it just to try this gem. Very quick and friendly service. Usual classic pub vibe, people having a convo after work, etc. Very nice indeed.”

“We had a great time having a pint and scran after walk. Really good camembert board. Good value for money with lots of artisan bread. Also lovely side order of sausage.”

“Visited today and was very impressed with the food quality, presentation, and flavor—it was outstanding! However, I’m giving it 4 stars because although the food was excellent, we had to ask for our drinks as they weren’t ready, which meant a bit of a wait. That said, the place had a lovely, cozy atmosphere overall.”

“First visit after being recommended by a friend. Excellent food and friendly service. Very nice place.”

“I am very happy I stayed at the Waterside Hotel and had breakfast there. They take good care of the guests and accommodate funny requests when possible. My special thanks to Adele, she has a good eye for detail and contributed to starting the days on a good mood =) Also thanks to kitchen staff! Good work! Those egg Benedict... And the pancakes... Delicious! Greetings from Room 31.”

“The pies were amazing and kids eating for £1 on a Saturday with an adult… buzzing!!”

“Food was lovely. Staff was really friendly. Would go here again.”

“Great bar, best proper pub in Bramhall. Shout out to Gemma who went above and beyond tonight providing drink for the pool competition!”

Enjoy the beautiful village and good places chill out the evening. Near to Manchester. 20 minutes drive, parking available. Dogs allowed.”

“As a solo diner I generally visit The Lodge once a week. The staff are always welcoming and friendly especially Lisa who always goes above and beyond to ensure that my visit is a pleasant and enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend The Lodge to anyone. All the team and the food are second to none. I thoroughly enjoy and look forward to my weekly visits. Thank you once again to Lisa x”
