Cafe in Sandbach

“We stayed here overnight on the way to a funeral in Cumbria, so we were not in the best spirits. We had a lovely meal, the food was beautiful cooked. It is a pub, but the food was better than some restaurants I have been to. All nicely presented and everything nice and clean. The public toilets were also really clean which gives me reassurance about the other areas. I have seen some negative reviews of the staff, but we found them to be very attentive and when there was no customer interaction they set to work cleaning, which was lovely to see. They run a quiz on Thursdays which we would happily go to. We stayed over for one night, everything was perfect, but I will look to review this separately.”

“Love this pub, great atmosphere, friendly staff and great service...”

“Brilliant day out! I had been looking at this place for a while but was unsure how good it would be. It was easy to find, there is plenty of parking, and it's cheap to go into the play areas (£11.99 per child and £2.99 per adult). I didn't see any disabled spaces, but there are no parking bays so you can leave a space next to the car for wheelchairs/pushchairs access. The car parking areas are well maintained, but are grass/dirt which might not be suitable for all wheelchairs. We went when it was really busy (hot day in the summer holidays) and it wasn't too busy. There are lots of well maintained paths around making it easy to navigate with disability aids (I myself use a stick and had no issues). There is a reasonably priced cafe, farm shop and concessions stand as well. You can also bring a picnic and there are plenty of benches/tables around to eat at! There are also lots of benches/seats in and around the play areas so it's easy to keep an eye on the kids and not have to be too far away. There are various types of play. areas for kids from toddlers to older kids. My son is 5 and he had a brilliant day! The staff around the farm are really friendly, and they look after the grounds so well with regular bin emptying, litter picking and tidying. Well worth the low cost to get in! We will definitely be visiting again! You can buy animal feed for £1 per bag at the entrance (reasonable bag size for the low price) to feed various farm animals on the way round. There are goats, ducks, geese, Free-roaming chickens, cows, horses, and pigs. Overall, I would easily give the farm 5 stars. It is a wonderful place to visit with the kids to get them off their tablets/devices and get them outdoors!”

“Ignore Scott Smith. Great puh with great prices. I visit every 5 or 6 weeks. Good for sports and if you want a bit of quiet time you can find it here or mix with the locals aswell. Highly recommended.”

“Very pleasant supper at the Fox last night.”

“Great food see pictures below and great value for money”

“John and the punters here are just magnificent. Especially Steve, who does the open.mic night the last Saturday of every month. If you play an instrument, you need to experience this place on an open mic night.”

“What an amazing duo working here this morning. A lovely welcome as soon as you walk in engaging with all customers. The girls were always looking to stay busy but always with a smile on their faces.”

“Food is amazing! Sunday roast is gorgeous! Beer: 8/10 - Good selection of beers tasty golden ale Atmosphere: Sat outside in the sun on a Sunday was very nice. Staff very nice! Other: Pool table and Darts board. Would recommend!”

“We had booked for a table on our walk, and we got there a bit early before opening, but tables outside to sit on. It started to fill pretty quickly, all the food we ordered was delicious and cooked perfectly no complaints from any of us and we were a group of 5. Even some drinks came quirky. Would definitely go again.”

“A new venue for me. We called in for a coffee and hot chocolate. Great value for money. A relaxed morning stay for perhaps 20 minutes and would definitely visit again. Well done to the staff for a clean venue and good service.”

“Food was lovely and staff were really friendly”

“Absolute gem of a place! Called in after a bike ride, on recommendation from a friend. Great coffee and superb cake, terrific choice very well priced. Will definitely call again for breakfast/brunch. Staff were exceptionally friendly and professional. Very impressed and will certainly be calling again!”

“Great People. Great Parts for my John Deere!”

“Absolutely smashed the customer service today. Both lads are a great asset to Costa! I work in retail and customer facing roles and it's so refreshing to have perfect service .”

“Nice place.good staff.nice food.”

“Great service from the 2 lovely young ladies working in the morning on the 16th October in the northbound branch inside the services. Both seemed to be really enjoying their job and made my day work a small drawing of a pumpkin and the message safe travels written on the lid. Nice to see young people that don't just do the minimum to get by.”
