Reviews in Macclesfield

Superb find down a side street in Macc. Lovely food, great service and an all round lovely evening. Will be going back as superb value for money.

Great tasting food, fantastic choices, very welcoming and attentive staff at very reasonable price. I would highly recommend this restaurant...

This was the second time we'd been to the Lilac Cottage and both times the food has been excellent, especially the tapas. It's beautifully decorated inside and the staff are all first class and very friendly. The price is very reasonable and overall a great choice for dining out. Highly recommended.

Really enjoyed our meal here and would absolutely come again. Only minor issue was when we arrived, the lady seating us (we had booked and arrived on time) was clearly unhappy with something and appeared to have difficulty seating us, audibly stating to another staff member " do you see what I have to deal with" which didn't make us feel particularly welcome. Aside from this, the food was lovely and the waitress serving us was polite and attentive.

Perfect tapas lunch with excellent Rioja. Good service and decor.

Loved Lilac Cottage the moment we walked through the door. The food was just gorgeous, with good portions, well presented, and timed to perfection. The service was fantastic, along with the very pretty interior design that made you feel so relaxed. I can definitely see that this will be a regular haunt for us and so pleased we found this little gem.

Food was incredible the first time we visited, so we were disappointed last night - very average. Some staff were great, whilst the more junior staff clearly need training. A few times we ordered 1 drink/dish and they just walked away without taking the rest of our order. Lovely atmosphere and really nice to have a live singer on - she was great.

Great place staff are great especially Joanne , will be back

I cannot fault this restaurant! Delicious food with lots to choose from. A lovely atmosphere, friendly and attentive staff and great value for money. I can’t wait to come back :)

Thoroughly enjoyed our meal here, great Tapas, great service couldn’t ask for more.

The food and service here are always fantastic! Good choice of dishes on the menu.

Local nurses needing a well deserved night out since covid! Everyone needs to visit this lovely restaurant. From the moment we walked in the service is unmatched, the staff so friendly and welcoming. The staff truly cares about your experience. The food is absolutely amazing – everything we tasted melted in the mouth. Absolutely the best meal we had for a long time. The music was lovely. Everything was perfect, we felt safe and able to laugh again. Highly recommend! We are currently planning another night but the time brining the whole nursing team! Thank to the owners treating us so well and the staff.

Ate here for the first time on Saturday and it certainly won't be our last. The food and service was exceptionally good and friendly, not to mention the outstanding Blueberry Daiquiri. All very memorable. Generous quantities of food, beautifully presented and so very tasty! The facilities were very clean and the lovely decor gives a great ambience. Thank you Lilac Cottage for such a lovely experience. I would also like to add how convenient it is that you can park opposite for free for 90 minutes whilst you enjoy your meal - having torn my meniscus, this was a great help!
