Reviews in Cheshire

Everything we had was fine but we were concerned by the amount of things off the menu - no pies, no fish crumble, no mixed grill & no roasts. It was Sunday at 6pm. More surprising was asking for coffee at 7.45 to be told the coffee machine had been cleaned & was off & no mint tea. If a reason had been given that might have been helpful. It’s a decent pub & I’ll try again due to proximity to somewhere I meet friends but only once more.

Food really nice, good service. Been a number of times and never been disappointed. I would certainly recommend.

We had a wonderful family dinner on Saturday evening celebrating my father’s 85th birthday. The team were very attentive, professional and experienced.

I've wanted to try the food at the White Lion after passing several times and always seeing the carpark busy. However, I was immediately disappointed as my first impression was staff that seem very disorganised in this lovely village pub. We arrived about 10 minutes early for a Sunday Lunch booking and not one staff member of the four at the bar seemed to take charge to welcome guests. All too busy perhaps...umm? Who is Front of House? There is no advertisement at the bar or on the Notice Board for the Sunday Lunch Roast meats available, which our server failed to mention too. There are only a few lines hidden on the Menu about Sunday Lunch which offers additional sides Cauliflower Cheese or Pigs in Blankets. Why not make Sunday Lunch a 'big thing' like most other pubs? That said when the Roasts arrived I was relatively happy with the presentation and the quantity. No English Mustard, just French or Wholegrain, and I had to track down my own Salt and Pepper as these are not placed out on the tables? The Roast Beef was ok, a little overcooked (well done) and far too thick. One particular slice was about 1cm thick and very tough (even for someone with my own teeth). The remainder or the Roast was very nice. Lovely 'al dente' vegetables. I was also slightly disappointed with my desert which was a slice of Cherry Pie that had been 'nuked' in a microwave. Thus, the pastry was soggy and the filling volcanic. Perhaps just serve it cold with ice-cream instead, or reheat in an airfryer to keep the pastry crisp. Perhaps it was an off day at The White Lion, so I'll be sure to try it again before making a decision.

1st time visiting the Poachers a very warm welcome from the staff as we arrived atmosphere was very pleasant food was excellent but it did arrive a little late due to a few issues on the day but better late than never is what I say & we were also given a discount for the late arrival of our food which was very kind of them and had excellent service well worth the visit and will definitely go again

What a wonderful place to celebrate a special wedding anniversary - the staff could not have done more, the food was exquisite, the atmosphere is friendly while still being smart, it really is one of the best places to eat in the area. We could not recommend it more!

First visit to Pacinos with family. Food and service excellent. Will definitely be back. Thank you.

Great food. Nothing to complain about. Kids loved it. Would certainly visit again if we are in Chester again

The food was delightful, the decor stunning and the service was smiley & friendly. Couldn't ask for more!

Having been here in the past and had a nice meal we decided to return tonight for a last minute family meal - I wish we never wasted the money! Kids meals were terrible - how can you go so wrong with pizza and chips? A warmed up cheap microwave pizza at best. I myself ordered chilli - which was mince in tinned tomatos watered down - I sent it back and ordered Ham eggs and chips instead- not sure which meal was worse. No apology given for the awful 1st meal either. I would not recommend this pub to anyone.

Our first visit and we’ll definitely return! Lovely early evening drink with friends, the service is great, really helpful guidance on our cocktail choices from lovely, friendly staff and the drinks were excellent.

Bachas for us is one of the best restaurants in Cheshire. Interesting menue, always great food and perfect atmosphere. Staff attentive, for my wife and I Bachas is our first choice for a special meal out.

Nice restaurant in a lovely village in Lymm. Food was great. My only concern was a family adjacent to us who had a child and was using a scooter in the restaurant which is not acceptable in my opinion.

Fab pub. Great food, great service and a beautiful setting. Would recommend

Fab food. Fab service. Fab staff. We'll be back.

Great, friendly atmosphere. Lovely food, and excellent service!

Warm welcome and great service from Jo. Delicious food (halloumi and chips;have,egg and chips) which came very quickly. Pleased to have several VG options to choose from. Only thing that could improve is option for vegetable side order. A lovely little pub and very good value. We will be back often.

Lovely afternoon tea, sandwiches and cakes very fresh and tasty scones still warm ,Staff extremely friendly and super efficient. Thank you for making our time with you so special.
