“Went for the New Year’s Eve dining experience and have to say it was superb in every way. The food serving was excellent, the setting, second to none with great service, attentive and courteous. Congratulations to all. This is one of our favourite places!”

“Stopped for a meal and a quick pint when passing through. Was extremely busy there were enough staff to ensure nobody is left waiting. Staff were all extremely pleasant and welcoming. I really enjoyed the food. A deveng variety. J went with my partner and kids - all are fussy eaters but there was something for everyone. Prices of meals varied between around 15 and 18 quid, steak a bit more. Really good value for money with the quality and size of the meals provided”

“Beautiful country pub! We had a family dinner here, 15 of us across 4 generations, and it was excellent for all of us! The staff were attentive, despite it being a busy Sunday afternoon, with lots of other groups in too. What a beautiful, atmospheric place! Welcoming, clean, accessible, and busy - we'll definitely be back again soon.”

“We had not been here for 15 years and still the best Chinese we have ever been too. The menu has changed slightly. They seem to have reduced what's on there and no more prawns available on the start out of any form which is disappointing but the quality of all the food was fantastic and what they have got on there they have really nailed. What was really nice is there was no arguing about wanting more. I think some of us ate four cheesecakes each which sounds excessive, but it was the best cheesecake I've ever had and I'm not even that big a fan of cheesecake. They were really good with the kids, especially the two that wouldn't have anything off the menu. Jane was very friendly, although all the waiters and waitresses were fantastic. Only negative is we did end up having to be asked to leave so they could get the next table in which when it's £30 ahead each can feel rushed although he had been there for at least 2 hours so I do understand from their perspective. Either way I would highly recommend!”

“A superb, stylish, cosy modern ambiance with warm, friendly and inviting staff. My Mum and Dad kindly took me there for a birthday meal and the entire experience was delightful. The menu was so good I found it extremely difficult to make a choice but when I did, the food arrived in a timely fashion and was absolutely delicious. They clearly have an excellent chef/team of chefs because the standard of the food really was excellent. Each course was of an exceptional quality and was certainly able to justify the price range. The white chocolate cookie dough with caramelised bananas, ice cream and toffee dessert was, in both mine and my Mum’s opinion, one of the best desserts we’d tasted in a long time. Truly divine. The staff were the epitome of professionalism, attentive and friendly; willing to engage in a bit of banter as well as providing excellent service. I can’t recommend this restaurant enough. It’s well worth the money.”

“Lovely place, really cosy and great set up, tiered menu with a 3 dish set price based on what tier the dishes were in. This meant you could have a smaller amount of 3 things to rather than choosing 1 dish - great for the indecisive like me!! All 3 dishes were delicious, and I even took some home so small doesn't mean that small. Will absolutely be back, there's another 30 dishes I need to try!!”

“The food here was absolutely beautiful, the portion sizes was just enough. I had the liver and onions and my partner had the steak pie and they was just so tasty. The staff was very friendly they certainly know how to provide great customer service. With attending to your every needs. It was so lovely aswell to just eat and not get disturbed to get asked "how was your food" whilst you got a mouth full because they really don't need to ask it anyways as the food was just mouth watering. The atmosphere was so calm and relaxing the place cosy and warm and just so welcoming. If I could rate this higher I would. Thank you for a lovely meal we will definitely be back.”

“Great food and service Loved the Guinea Fowl with Orange & Cranberry Sauce The veg was generously sized and al dente Hats off to the chefs ! Fantastic variety of Unique Ales and Wines I’m not sure who sourced all of these ales but they’re very resourceful lol I loved the Bitburger shandy ( low alcohol but very fruity taste ) Will definitely revisit soon Ps the High Leigh locals are so so friendly as well”

“I had the 16-hour smoked ribs here, and what a delight! The meat was beautifully tender, with that deep smoky flavour that comes from real slow cooking. The char and bark held their own without overpowering the natural porkiness.”

“I had a great experience at Pepe’s in Crewe. The restaurant was clean, well-organized, and the food was fresh and served hot. Abdul provided excellent service — he was polite, attentive, and went out of his way to make sure everything was perfect. His friendly attitude and genuine care made my visit even better.”

“Lovely friendly pub, great staff, great selection and quality of beers and some excellent food. Relaxed but higher-end gastro that welcomed us despite having been out walking all day. Will definitely go back!”

“Went in to meet a friend for tea and a chat. Good parking and access. Greeted warmly as soon as I got in the door by friendly and welcoming staff. Good service, great food and cakes. Will certainly go again!”

“We visited yesterday for a family wedding and we were made to feel very welcome from the start. It is a super wedding venue and the staff were very organised and ensured that it all ran very smoothly. One member of staff who stood out to us was Sophie. She was so accommodating and nothing was too much trouble for her. She served the canapés in a very efficient and friendly manner. The following morning ( today ) she served us with a delicious breakfast and was as helpful as she had been yesterday. She certainly stood out to us but I will add that all the staff worked efficiently and calmly throughout the day. Thank you for a lovely day xx”

“An absolutely beautiful 7 course meal. We couldn’t fault anything. 5 stars ⭐️ isn’t enough for this fantastic place. My only one regret is, all the staff signed a birthday card for Lucy, and she forgot to pick it up. She was gutted on our way home.”

“Loved this place. Our first time there for just one night to celebrate our anniversary. Will definitely be going back as we both felt so relaxed there. Beautiful settings and garden, great for heading out on a walk. Decor and ambience just lovely. Food was excellent (and not 'messed with' as my husband would say!). Our room, which was upgraded so very kindly and much appreciated, was brilliant. Wonderful views from large double aspect windows. Thank you.”

“Perfect service, nice menu, good price, friendly, dogs friendly... Parking”

“Booked a table for 3 for lunch on Friday. Tim greeted us and made us feel so welcome. Nothing was too much trouble from start to finish. He even took photos for us. The food was delicious and the service was great as always. It's such a lovely place to go and eat and then finish with a walk around the shop or the garden centre or both. Just love Jackson's Nursery.”

“This is an authentic Chinese take-away / fish and chip shop. They have been there for decades and it hasn’t changed. The food is always done to an excellent standard and is not as expensive as many.”

“Lovely little place for some really good food, and the sticky toffee pudding got glowing reviews all around with the lovely cream. The steak was cooked perfectly and a nice bit of meat can’t complain and recommend to all”

“I would like to say how delicious the food was and the staff were very welcoming . By far the best pub in the area . 10/10 fantastic pub”

“Couldn’t really fault it. Excellent beer, great service. Traditional style pub very close to the train station. Friendly to away fans. Will return if ever in stoke. 40 minutes from the football ground.”

“Friendliest staff ever! So many laughs with Pauline! What a legend! Such good food! Clean and fresh rooms! What a great place to drop in to for a night and be treated so well!”

“Stay and room was amazing, staff cannot do enough for you! Chefs taster menu was incredible. Eva and Gemma in the Spa are fantastic and made sure we had the best time!”

“We have visited this restaurant on two occasions now both times for the pizza which is very tasty and a good size. We normally go around 3.30 / 4pm on a Sunday as it's not to busy and enjoy a seat by the window. The service is good but I did feel it was a little rushed this last time as maybe staff were looking for something to do. Sorry who wants to rush on a Sunday?? That's why I have given 4 stars.”

“The outside area is a good place on a sunny day.”

“We came as a family group of 6 and a toddler for a 60th birthday party on Saturday evening. The food and service was excellent. I don’t know the name of the waitress but she was exceptional. It was very busy but she still managed to be efficient, calm and find time to listen and talk to us in addition to having to rearrange the tables for another party. Our booking was under the name of Shaw so please thank the amazing young lady.”

“Great cinema, very helpful and friendly staff. Nice and clean. Very comfy reclining seats. Highly recommend”

“Love this place for a lunchtime sandwich and drink treat, when I need a break from work. Family run business, with home from home atmosphere and cooking.”

“We had a lovely evening celebrating an anniversary. We were served by T who was engaging and attentive! Couldn’t have asked for a better meal out for a special occasion! Food was brilliant, drinks lovely and the extra touches don’t go unnoticed!”

“We stopped over at this cafe while on our way to a hike. Although the cafe was full, staff were very friendly and had time to talk. We had the coffee and a cake and it was nice. Plenty of parking onsite and the washroom facilities are clean”
