The best restaurants in Cheshire West and Chester North West

Never been before but passed it many many times. However as we moving to mere thought it was worth checking out a few eateries before we move This chip shop is amazing, great food, cleanliness, venue. Lovely to either eat in either of the two open park spaces either side of the road, The staff were nice, but are literally sat and engage the bare minimum (or they did on the day I visited) - that aside one of the best chippies I’ve been to in Cheshire

What you see you get. Simple no frills cafe serving simple basic food - breakfast. Pleasent staff and excellent value. no cards taken. Clean and tidy.

the couple who run the cottage cannot do enough for you - they are so friendly and helpful - been going there for years after trying so many places close to Tatton Park for the RHS flower show - been dismayed by many, so called 'top class' places = then we found the cottage - fab place, very clean, everything you need, breakfast fab, and, as i mentioned at the start, the couple who run it are so nice, friendly and helpful - will deffo be going back - many times hopefully - I need to add after looking at questions below, this a b&b not a restaurant so my answers below are just so I can put a post on here as to how good this place is :)

Great goats cheese & caramelised onions panini for lunch with a pot of tea. Fabulous friendly service & great atmosphere. Great music!

This is no longer called the village cafe since July 2022. Its now called first class breakfast house it has New owners, new menu, new style and look.

Absolutely lovely staff and lovely food. Call in as much as I can. Very welcoming with a picturesque view of the river. Little hidden 💎 gem

Took our train-obsessed eight-year-old here, he loves the setting with its railway memorabilia, and the food was great too. Prices are very reasonable given the quality.

Fantastic visit on Saturday 28/05/2022. First off I didn’t realise the enormity of what we were asking ,20 of us adults and children rocked up at around 3 pm looking for food ,we were welcomed and we all ordered food and drinks ,think they had already had there lunchtime rush and were winding down then we turned up but there was no ,oh no what should we do . We were told to take our tables and then ordered our food ,which was fantastic the service was wonderful .most of the children ordered pizza ,my boys told me they were way better than any they had ever had from the takeaway . The beef was perfect . We stayed for a couple of hours and were made to feel so welcome .thank you red lion .we will return .but I promise to give some notice .

As we have family in Farndon we popped into this cafe for some lunch on the way. We were greeted by I suspect was the owner.I asked her for a menu and it seemed to be a problem that she had to tell us what was available instead of having printed menus on the table.I must say the lady is so unfriendly and appears to be quite rude and snappy.The coffee was lovely and the food is a bit overpriced for what you receive ,also we had a long wait as she was serving alone and cooking.The cafe lacks atmosphere and it takes nothing to be friendly and polite to your customers if you want them to return. We couldn't wait to leave as she made me and my husband feel we were an inconvenience and really this lady needs to create a more welcoming environment,due to this we will not return.

The pretty views outside on the patio area overlooking the lake make this cafe a delightful venue on hot sunny summer day or cosy inside on a wintry day. We hadn't been to the cafe since it was taken over. The inside decor has had a freshen up with comfy seating and lovely warm colours. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. We only had coffee on this trip, but the food looked delicious and there were plenty of homemade cakes. The caravan site is very nice for a gentle stroll around the lakes. The site itself would be perfect for a holiday and has an open heated swimming pool on site and is close to lots of amentities.

Great place to have stop while in the park . Lovely staff . Lovely atmosphere

Just visited The Oaklands Hotel and tried their carvery in The Amore Restaurant. We had excellent service from the manager and the staff who were on today. There was a great variety of food to try including four different types of meat, plenty of fresh cooked vegetables and sides to go along with it. We were we served plenty of meat before helping ourselves to everything else. Probably nicest carvery/Sunday dinner in the area and it won't be long before we are back there again.

Ace place. 80s music and student type food. Staff friendly. Good value for money. Guitarist and vocalist brilliant. Great night out.

Fantastic Christmas buffet which was amazing value and truly delicious. Huge range including salmon, prawns, various cheeses and pates, yummy cakes for dessert and a chocolate fountain- all in friendly and welcoming surroundings and our dogs welcomed. Thank you and we will be back!

This is by far the best food stop ever! The food is always freshly cooked while you wait. Fantastic! Me and my husband come here whenever we're passing.
