Reviews in Cheshire

Superb food, service and restaurant. Six STARS!!!

We had a table booked for 20.00, and we were delayed en-route and arrived over 30 minutes late. The staff were wonderful, and the meal arrived very promptly and was delicious. Cannot praise our experience enough. recommended. Thank you.

Excellent menu. We were a large group. We found everything tasted delicious

Average pub grub. A few things could be better, frozen chips, overly sweet sauce on the duck tho the pork belly was good. Service was very slow and we were seated in a side room with a large family gathering next to us which was noisy and not much fun. We could have asked to move but a bit of thought by the pub wouldn’t have seated us there in the first place. Waitress was quite stressed, forgot the coffee, took ages to take our order. She was apologetic and we tipped but she didn’t really deserve it. There are lots of pubs on the area and they should try a bit harder to guarantee repeat business

We booked a table for 8 people, 6.30pm to celebrate 2 birthdays. Pre-ordered meals as requested to help the team out. However, our requested meals were not printed and given to the chef/kitchen beforehand. We were told that we couldn't have some of our chosen meals as the chef hadn't cooked enough. We then still waited an hour to get any food . We are regulars at The Alvanley and although disappointed with the service on this occasion, we will still go again. Such a shame communication between departments put a dampener on our celebration. Food was good.

Fabulous food & place. We went for the set dinner menu - excellent value & choice Friendly attentive staff & never felt rushed - great at topping our wine glasses up. Highly recommend & will definitely return

We had a wonderful Friday lunch. The food was delicious and the service top notch. Proper fine dining restaurants seem to be so rare these days, and Bacchus is definitely one to return to. Thank you!

I took my mum for a meal before we went across to St Mary's Church, Astbury for a heritage open day. We both had steak and ale pie - it was stuffed full of meat and very tasty - best pub steak and ale pie we have ever had anywhere. Service was excellent and friendly. We have had several family meals here before over the years and it has always been good.

Very disappointed with our experience yesterday. I booked online for 2 pm. We ordered drinks and food within 10 minutes of arriving and 10 minutes passed and still no drinks had arrived. We were told that there would be a half hour wait on food. There was a party of 30 dining and the kitchen staff clearly couldn’t keep up with the number of meals to be served. To summarise, the service was terrible as there were hardly any staff and we waited an hour for food and 25 minutes for drinks. 2 out of the 3 meals had uncooked chewy cabbage. I would not recommend dining her at the moment until this has been resolved. Such a shame as have been dining here for over 30 years and never had a problem !

Lovely venue. Very friendly knowledgeable staff. Great Gluten free options. Good easy access for the infirm. The food was excellent and I will be returning now I live locally.

The food was amazing and staff was excellent and attentive. Was dog friendly which we had two with us. Such a lovely looking restaurant and price wasn't bad for the amount and quality. Xx

Great evening food was perfect and the service just has good

Service was absolutely spot on! Couldn’t fault it. The food on the other hand was very average. We were a table of 8 people who had a variety of the menu including the surf and turf which was the toughest steak they’d ever eaten! We won’t be returning!

Lovely decor, comfy seating with plenty of space. The staff were efficient and friendly and the food was delicious. It is quite loud and echoey, and being a Saturday night it was quite busy. This made conversation across the table difficult at times.

Family get-together at Pacino's, booked on line weeks ago, studied menu on line and knew what I was going to order before I arrived. Crab cakes for starters was delicious and the red pepper salad; perfect. Main course: Salmon & prawn tagliatelle with bottle of red could not have been better. The staff where attentive and friendly. All seven of us chose different items from the menu and I heard nothing but praise for the quality of the food. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the staff who where working during our visit and I can confirm that should we visit Chester again, we will definitely be dining with you. Thank you.

Lovely meal, service and atmosphere. We will be returning soon

Absolutely stunning food, we had the charcuterie board and the croque monsieur - really generous portions good value for money. The sparkling wine was also excellent! Great service & relaxing atmosphere.
