Reviews in Macclesfield

Lovely evening - very good food, super menu, well served from friendly staff

We had an early evening meal from the fixed menu which was reasonably priced. The service was very attentive and friendly, making you feel extremely welcome. Bacchus was one of our regular venues, but following the lockdown we had not been for quite a while. We instantly felt right at home again however and made the conscious decision to put Bacchus high on our list of favourite restaurants again.

Faultless, the best meal out I’ve had in along time. Can’t recommend it highly enough!

So very happy to return here again to this exquisite Cheshire inn, ()not Staffordshire as quoted !) We were served by the effervescent and charming James who really was the most brilliant waiter. The food was, as always is, sheer brilliance and all washed down with a Wincle Brewery beer. Sublime and bucolic sum up this enchanting venue and we continue to wish Jim and Christione well in promoting their pub. Loved the fact we can now book on line. The services offered just get better and better. Thank you!

Usual high quality offering. I had beef tartare and selection of shellfish. I have had moules mariniere in many restaurants around the world but I have to say the ones at Bacchus were the best! Excellent silver service but with a friendly twist always happy to share a laugh. Nothing is too much trouble and they are always flexible to accommodate any request. Not too noisy or crammed together so it was easy to have table conversation. We finished the meal with a generous cheese board and a port. A meal to remember!!

Beautiful food and outstanding service. Outdoor area is lovely with a buzzing atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Short notice booking for a Saturday evening. 3 x Adults. When making a drinks order there was a distinct lack of most things. No lager on tap, no Estrella no Brahma, I ended up with a bottle of Moretti, (not my favourite). My son asked for a Jamesons Orange, none in the house. Luckily my wife wanted a soft drink and was amazed when they had some. My son ordered the pinwheel steak. None available. The food, that arrived was good, but if we had known there was a shortage of our favoured drink, we would have gone elsewhere.

I went to Salt bar yesterday evening with 3 friends. We all had different meals which were all delicious. The wine was also spot on and beautifully chilled. The service was great as well. Would highly recommend

Eat here regularly and both the service and food never fails to impress. There is a set menu that changes all the time, as well as A la Carte and they are always happy to make changes, even make something that may not even be on the menu if they have the ingredients. The service is excellent - always make you feel very welcome. For such a fantastic restaurant the prices are very reasonable. Cannot wait until our next visit.

Service was brilliant Staff are so attentive without being intrusive Souffles were perfect Meat very fresh Staff kindly went out of their way to cater for my fussy husband, providing fish and chips which weren’t on main menu The only slight disappointment was that the deep fried fish was a little dry and chewy!! However Bacchus remains best restaurant in the village and we would highly recommend the dining experience Thanks to all

Can’t believe it took us so long to visit this diamond of a restaurant. The menu may be smaller but the flavours are mighty with enough selection to please every palate. We started with Prawn Skagen and the specials Cauli Filo rolls which were both very tasty, I could’ve just eaten a plate of the Cauli rolls! We then had the specials feta & strawberry salad and the spring cabbage leaves. The salad was so light and fresh with delicious strawberries, green beans and feta, very summery. The cabbage leaves filled with quinoa, peas, miso garlic mushrooms on a broad bean mash with maple and soy was just superb. We shared every course and took a rhubarb streusel home for our daughter as it was GF. Definitely one of the best restaurants in Macclesfield. Thank you Jo for a wonderful meal, we will be back!

Excellent overall experience. Food fantastic!

Fabulous food, huge selection especially for Vegetarians. Great Service. Sitting in the garden area felt like we could be away on holiday.

Service was prompt and friendly throughout in a lovely atmosphere. It was a very hot day. The large door/windows were open and the restaurant felt very comfortable. We had a party of four and all enjoyed their meals. The Prawn Cocktails were delicious but I felt that the pickled cucumber done in long strips was rather tricky to handle with a small spoon and small fork and would have preferred shorter strips. An excellent menu with something for every taste.

Great meals, drinks and service at The Salt Bar. We had the early bird offer of two courses and a drink for £20 per person. We both had mackerel pate for starters. My wife had the burger for main course and I had the meat balls. My wife had a house white wine and I had a lager. Everything was lovely. Service was pleasant and efficient.

Always a great welcome and wonderful service. The food is always to a very high standard. Our favourite local restaurant.

We visited the Ship Inn, Wincle, yesterday with our grandchildren and had a lovely meal in the garden. The fish and chips was excellent, a good size portion for £9.95 and great quality! Service was excellent and we look forward to returning very soon!

We went to the lilac cottage for afternoon tapas but ended up having bottomless brunch with cocktails. Excellent value for money the food was great good service and nice atmosphere. Eating out on the back courtyard had a very nice Mediterranean feel to it. Thanks very much to everyone there.
