The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Cheshire West and Chester North West

A friend took me for lunch at the cafe yesterday. We were both impressed by how welcoming it felt, how friendly and pleasant the staff were and the quality of the food. So I was surprised to see negative reviews and felt I should express my opinion. I wouldn't hesitate to return, especially to sample the scones and cakes.

Always a positive experience here! Dylan, the Welsh guy with an extremely impressive beard, always makes our visit special and he’s pretty good at making coffee too!!! Looking forward to visiting again soon.

Lovely staff and atmosphere. Very welcoming place. We have visited the cafe regularly for the past 6 months and cannot fault the place. We watched a few bands there too and they have been brilliant. My only complaint is the site has let the trees grow a little and hinders the of the lovely view of the fields beyond.

Myself and my elderly mother visited the gardens and I had booked afternoon tea. We arrived early which wasn’t a problem at all. The staff were excellent and very attentive. The food was really good - in fact we had to take leftovers home as there was so much! There is a lovely relaxed atmosphere. I would definitely recommend the afternoon tea here - I think you need to pre book this but it is definitely worthwhile.

Always good to visit the museum when photographing ships on the ship canal. The cafe here is good simple basic and welcoming. A limited but various menu serving decent food and drink. Very friendly staff and comfortable verlooking the canal with plenty going on.

Great atmosphere , busy and congenial staff and landlord/ lady. The beer has really improved in flavour recently and the food is simple but excellent . Lots of themed food nights- tonight fish and chip van ... delicious and incredible value.

i always come here with my friends and lewis behind the till is the best! 10/10 💕💕💕

3rd Review and 3rd 5*! A great meeting place with free parking and wonderful, value food!

A strange experience. We had a voucher for afternoon tea for two. Although the website states you don’t have to book, we called anyway to check this was the case. They confirmed we didn’t need to book. When we arrived later that day we were told they were short staffed in the kitchen so couldn’t serve afternoon tea. They then backtracked & said they could if that was all we wanted! Our food arrived almost immediately suggesting it was already prepared so I’m confused as to why they originally said they couldn’t serve it?? The afternoon tea was delicious and there was plenty of it. Shop generally a bit tired, and in need of some refurbishment.

Definitely worth a choice if in the area, cafe was clean and tidy and the food was fine. Was busy but that didn’t affect the service. Staff were really helpful and pleasant by far one of the better m&s cafes. This place seems to have two though the one downstairs doesn’t serve hot food

NO TOILET PAPER in the ladies toilets, I approached staff to tell them and they didn’t seem to bothered. If they have all done any FOOD HYGIENE Qualifications they will know that toilet paper is not just a necessity but a LEGAL REQUIREMENT In this type of establishment it is customary that on a rotational basis staff will be designated to look after the ladies and gents toilets.

I’ve visited this establishment on a few occasions, today I came in for breakfast and a coffee. Plenty of parking spaces and good sized beer garden with lovely decor. Don’t forget to log your car registration details on entering the pub! Staff are friendly and hard working. I was served quickly but it was very quiet as I visited at 9am. Food was served fast and all my food was hot and to specification but I didn’t get a check back to make sure everything was ok with my food. I love that when you buy a coffee you get free refills. The best thing about the breakfast and coffee is that you get all this for under £5, I ordered a traditional breakfast and free coffee refills. The pub was very clean inside and out but quite behind the times with regards to decor and the toilets are quite run down but you can see that the staff have done there best to keep the place clean and tidy. There is a free activity sheet for the children and I love the free Wetherspoons magazine. I would love for the staff to be a bit more interactive with the customers but I could see that they were a little short staffed at times. The pub interior could definitely do with updating, especially the men’s toilets hence the average review, my score would have been very good if the decor was improved. Every time I come to this pub I always have a good experience, the staff are always running around and working hard but sometimes this can be detrimental to the customer service as staff are a little overstretched because of staff shortage/tight budgets. The general atmosphere is relaxing and friendly, I would recommend this pub because the prices are really good, the staff are friendly and it’s generally a clean pub, how can you complain when a pint of san Miguel is £3.40? If you have children there’s not much to do except the activity sheet so bring some stuff for the kids to do. I will definitely visit this pub again, keep up the good work.

Counter staff a disgrace. Looked sulky unapproachable and angry. If she can’t smile or look welcoming she shouldn’t work serving the cakes and dealing with customers.

After vowing never to go to M&S cafe (Gemini) again, I visited the one in Chester last week. What a difference- able to pick up/order what I wanted via a person and enjoy on a clean/empty table. . I made a point of speaking to the Manager and advised her of such a pleasant experience. If she has any influence over the changes at the larger stores with the unhygienic touch control system( no facility to clean the screens) which leaves customers with either cold food or cold drink, whilst waiting for the other half of an order to arrive, I sincerely hope that Management listen. If the number of adverse reviews isn’t enough to make them reconsider, I assume they aren’t interested. Will spend our money at alternative venues.

How can a garden centre, classed as upmarket, serve such disgusting overpriced food and get away with it. I will never return and I will warn all my friends not to go there.
