Reviews in Cheshire

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.

Absolutely loved our meal and evening at Pacino's! The restaurant was so cosy and full of character. Service and food was amazing! Thank you, we had a lovely visit and would definitely go back again when we are next in Chester!

I dine here quite often. This time we fetched our 14 year old grandson. He was delighted with his meal and surrounding. Has asked to come again.

Great menu, great food and great service. Reasonable prices.

I love this restaurant. Staff are so obviously trained to a high level where they're able to answer questions without running to the kitchen to check; where attention to detail is highly important and where special touches like cheese straws with truffle mayo, complimentary breads and petite fours are served on the house. So many restaurants fail in all of these details and really could benefit from a visit to this establishment to see how pleasurable dining should be enjoyed.

I had duck which was spot on. One guest had liver which she enjoyed. The other had steak (note only rump option) which was ‘OK’ We opted for two deserts, unfortunately both ‘sticky toffee pudding’, which was Luke warm and had the consistency of a brick with minimal ‘toffee’ on top. We made our feelings known but don’t think it was fed back.

Very enjoyable afternoon. The food was excellent and the waitresses very helpful and friendly.

Always excellent service, excellent choice and great food. Thank you

Wonderful place for lunch, great food and wine. Second room quite loud and echoey but we moved to the front room when a table became available and it was great.

We visited the pub prior to a planned visit to the shire horse centre next door. We have been to the Alvanley Arms before and enjoyed it so we booked it again. It is such a nice place. The location is great, the interior of the pub is very cosy, the food is very nice and the staff are helpful and friendly. It is the third time we have been to the Alvanley Arms and the shire horse centre this yeat and wish we could go every week.

I am a frequent visitor to Mere Court hotel and have always enjoyed the food and hospitality. From the moment you arrive the atmosphere is welcoming and well-appointed, reflecting a commitment to quality and guest satisfaction. Every meal I’ve had has been beautifully presented and full of flavour, clearly prepared with care and high-quality ingredients. The staff are another highlight—always courteous, attentive, and genuinely hospitable. They go out of their way to ensure that each visit is comfortable and enjoyable, creating a dining environment that keeps me coming back. Whether you’re visiting for a casual meal or a special occasion, the Mere Court Hotel delivers an experience that exceeds expectations. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for excellent cuisine paired with outstanding service.

Excellent service - best pizza I have ever had. Lamb was an excellent also. Very cheap!

This was our second visit. We stopped off for a meal on a long drive home. The pub is a lovely environment and very clean, and the service is friendly. Unfortunately the pork belly was dry, and the dish overall was too heavy. I did want a pie but there was no alternative to steak and ale. We were considering a dessert, but waited 25 minutes after finishing our meal with the table not yet cleared before deciding to pay at the bar and leave as there was no server attending us.

We had a Sunday early evening meal. We were impressed with the service and the quality of the food. The portions were large and we would go for the smaller plate option next time. Maybe then have room for dessert. Four of us had the mixed roast diner and one had the vegetarian option. We chose the Alvanley Arms because of the wide selection of vegetarian dishes available. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal.

Staff were very helpful. My granddaughter 's meal wasn't what I ordered for her which was roasted chicken breast, mash and peas., Instead chicken was chargrilled, a mixture of veg and mash, which was the only thing she ate.

Me and my family went for the first time on Saturday, hands down the best breakfast in Nantwich. So quirky and unique with there way on breakfast, we will 100% be returning and this will be our new breakfast spot. Highly recommended.
