The best restaurants serving British food in Cheshire West and Chester North West

I really don’t like giving poor ratings because I recognise the difficulties in the hospitality industry at the moment but there were few saving graces here. The Mollington Banastre used to be one of Chester’s best hotels and excellent lunch venues but I hadn’t visited for years. When I saw a voucher on offer for afternoon tea I bought one for my wife and two friends for a trip down memory lane. What a disappointment. The dining room was empty but for us and lacked warmth and atmosphere. The food offering was incredibly poor. The sandwiches lacked taste and imagination, the scones were small and along with the cakes looked and tasted as though they had been bought up the road at Morrisons. The only positive was the service which was good. Afternoon tea isn’t necessarily a good guide to the main aspects of a hotel but the quality and ambiance we experienced give me concern. It will be years again before we choose to come back.

it's closed and gone now a vape shop. Please don't worry Frodsham has many great eateries for you to enjoy.

great place old school pub drinks you wont find anywhere else £3.60 for a pint of extra stout better than guiness very good value

Delicious vegan vanilla and honey comb ice creams along with 3 different vegan cakes, all fabulous, especially the Bakewell cheesecake. Didn't have to ask for vegan cones, she knew straight away which ones were appropriate.

Great time however was a tad dry haha. However good time was had by all. Oh and the toilet flushes itself

Do not go! 13.30 pm, ARRIVE, HAVE TO PAY FOR PARKING. BOLLARDS ARE OUT SO PULL UP AND PARK UP. GO AROUND TO THE FRONT CLOSED!!! HAVE TO PAY PARKING and can't as closed! Pay now OR £100 FINE... as we can't give reg to bar staff! 100% entrapment as there are no closed signs nothing!! Looks open from our direction!! Shocking. Took video ... NO CLOSED SIGNS just bollards enticing you in on the pavement!

Ideal location within easy walking distance of city centre attractions. Decor a little dated. But all in all great value

We ordered room service from this restaurant. The most awful coronation chicken arrived. I asked for brown, they gave me white bread. Not a bit of raisin nor greens. It’s my favourite sandwich and I couldn’t even have the other half. It’s tasteless and it stuck to your gums. We also had the meat pizza. Not bad but not much meat. The curry was also tasteless and so was the avocado bruschetta. The best thing there was the seasonal vegetables. Loved it! Breakfast here was also good.

we have had a few days staying in the hotel on site, wanted something different for breakfast there's not really much to choose from there and then we decided to try here the food was hot and was delivered to the table, it was expensive for what we actually had but cooked well and enjoyable the coffee was the best one I had in days so much better than McDonalds one and costa the man who served us was so pleasant and chatty he was brilliant made us feel really welcome and couldn't enough for us
