Reviews in Northwich

My husband and and I pushed our luck and just popped in early doors the second night You open,you were really bizzy.. You fitted us in, I'm so pleased we took the chance, it was a fab meal,, You will be seeing a lot of us.. Waiters and waitresses very good . Keep up the good work.

Re-opened just before Christmas 2012, no longer a pub, trying to be an expensive Restaurant with small potions of "quality food", served by staff in jeans and tee shirts at expensive prices!. Don't expect a friendly welcome by the manageress because you will not get one. Toilets are very clean and dogs are allowed in the back room - give it a miss and go elsewhere.

very good food at good price lovely pub guest beers very welcoming phone number is 01606 43064 not what you have posted .

Lucky Petes??? you'd do well to avoid this place.. unhygenic at best, filthy in my opinion, whole family down with bad stomachs.. and watch out for the minger in the kitchen.. one of northwichs skanky birds!! coke whore... ought to be put out of her misery.. sorry, i digress.. just avoid Lucky Petes!! you been warned!!

Yet another wonderful meal, great service and a fabulous night at this restaurant. Noticed last night a sign from the council on display awarding it 5 stars and platinum award for food hygiene and safety! When I enquired with the manager he told me that the hygiene has always been at a 5 star level since opening - well done Turturici!! Curiosity got the better of me, so I decided to look online at the hygiene ratings of other restaurants in the area, and my goodness does this make interesting, even disturbing, reading! From now on I will always check the hygiene rating (food.gov.uk/ratings) before I potentially put my health at risk and spend my hard-earned cash! To top the lot, the manager openly invited me into the kitchen to take a look for myself.... what a fabulous place!!!!!

I Have used the Seafarer for many years on the assurance that although a few coppers dearer than others I could be assured of their quality. That is until today 09.07.12 when I went in feeling a little peckish around 2pm for sausage and chips, or on opening them in the car should I say portrayed to be. The sausage were hard on the outside with a shin wrinkled resembling a turkey neck and look warm having been obviously left stood in a heated display for hours and then the chips could only be described as greasy potato mush from which I managed to extricate an odd one that was shaped like a chip rather than a block of mushy potato fat and threw over half of them away as totally inedible.Used this facility from the 70's but certainly will not be in a hurry to return.

have been to the watermead quite a few times on quiz night.Think the carvery is excellent and extremely good value for money

the carvery i find good but plain, but the chicken in sauce was absolutely beautiful, and the melt in the middle chocolate pudding is to die fore, prices very good as well, i wish they had a dish where you had a choice of sauces to have with any dish you order, well worth a visit.

Didn't know about this place before, Now I do and will return again. Beautiful hotel in a beautiful part of the world.

The carvery was very nice.I had fish

Just had lunch at The Watermead - never again!! The food was luke warm, very small portions and over priced. When asked if we enjoyed our meal, we said not really and to be honest no one gave a dam. I certainly won't be eating or recommending them to anyone in the future.

Brilliant and tasty! but i hungry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

veteran 1 review 12 February 2011 Well, 5 stars - from one person's review ! Times must have changed since then Mandy. Has anybody had a bad experience at Turturici Italian style restaurant in Davenham ? Let's be hearing from you. 11th February 2011 7.15pm visited and informed who appeared to be the owner that my wife and I were first time visitors. No problem there. Showed to table. Wine waiter offered his services and as I was having difficulty reading the menu (low light) he recommended a white wine. He offered it for tasting ( so far so good) but although the wine was 'fruity' it had a high acidic content. For my stomach I knew I could not take it. He gave me an indignant look as if it were wrong of me to say this. He turned away taking the newly opened bottle with him, returned and I was surprised by his attitude. He flew back to us in a semi angry way and dropped the wine list on the table (not given) and told me to pick my own wine and walked away. Oh dear, had I done something wrong ? I suppose I should have taken his recommendation. So sensitive ! What is the wine tasting for ? My wife looked in amazement. Never mind, let's move on. Scouring the menu suddenly a lovely young waitress ( very pleasant) served us with a bottle of water and two glasses. Not being a person who is fond of water and had never ordered we thought it was a mistake. I asked the young lady to return it as we hadn't ordered it. Oh dear, mistake no. 2. Wine waiter returned with a somewhat frustrated attitude and I selected another wine which was quite palatable. Well, it was Friday night and I understood from locals that it was a popular place and we had to try it. The starter and the main course were absolutely excellent - compliments to the Chef ( we think he's the one selling the establishment's reputation). Young pleasant waitress with a smile asked about coffee. We wanted to finish the wine and asked for 5 minutes. She didn't return but we asked the second young pleasant waitress for coffee who came to us. The wine waiter ( we think he may be the wine waiter ) rather speedily swung into action again reminding us in a belligerent and corrective way that we had asked for 4 coffees through two waitresses but rather sharply telling us he had spotted the error and reduced it to two ( oh dear mistake no. 3 regardless of the fact that I thought it was protocol to return to the customer to ask if we were ready for coffee again – ah well - wrists slapped). That put us in our place !! We looked around at the clientele and felt that the majority were local people and that it was albeit very expensive ( why ?) the only single restaurant in Davenham - hence monopoly. Yes, two pubs in the area but this was on its own. Why are their prices so high and that people are willing to pay such prices ? It beggars belief. Hmm monopoly indeed. Well the time came to pay and I was given a load of abuse from the owner who threatened to knock my 60+yrs of age head off and the wine waiter told me that it was a shame that he could only take the evenings money from my credit card and no more !! I was absolutely astonished and left ‘ gob smacked ‘. Who are these people ? Nice to some people and not to others ? Where was the professionalism ? They never found our coats for us and were arrogantly very rude indeed. We left. Having had 5 businesses in my lifetime and attended countless number of restaurants, never have we been received in such a way. It was like they could pick and choose their regular heavily paying punters. The owner had stated that they rule out children from attending the restaurant. Aren't they lucky to have this monopoly in Davenham when other Restaurauters are desperate for business in these times of austerity. We call it absolute arrogance and familiarity. Well, if we have dined incorrectly for the first time in our lives then truly we didn't know it. We have dined in top class restaurants as well as humble ones and never been treated like this. Shame on them. Chef and the two young ladies were absolutely fantastic. Time for them to take over. Anyone for opening another Italian in Davenham ?

visited 14 jan this was our first time at mr fus, and our last didn't rate the food at all found it to be tasteless, drinks very expensive £1.40 for an orange and tap water

my husband and i decided to go out for Sunday lunch somewhere a little different from our local haunts. we decided to book as we were not so sure if it was going to be busy. we arrived and were pleasantly greeted by the staff and escorted to a table, i asked to sit in the 'posher' left hand side of the pub which was empty at the time, there seemed to be a little hesitation about us sitting there, i initially thought the tables were already reserved but people were coming and going out of that room after we sat down so I'm not so sure why they looked surprised at our request to sit there. the drinks were brought to us promptly but were quite steeply priced. the food arrived quickly too, very well presented on the funky plates looking very contemporary. the mains was delicious but we were given a tiny bowl of mixed veg to share, quite a poor portion a sunday lunch i thought! the dessert arrived shortly afterwards, and it was thoroughly tasty, but im not sure how they justify charging 6 pounds for a 2 inch square of choc brownie with a small scoop of ice cream on top!! the meal in total for 2 starters, 2 mains, 2 desserts, 2 glasses of wine and 2 cokes came to 63.65. i cant grumble over the presentation or quality of food however we never had a table check for any of the courses, and i felt in total it was very over priced, even for a contemporary pub.

greeted by helpful and very friendly staff nothing is too much trouble probably the best tasted for a long time keep up the great work guys cant wait to return soon

A real gem obviously run by people who really care about the food they serve and sell. As local Northwich residents we are lucky to have such an excellent establishment on our doorstep.

We have been having Fish and Chips at the Seafarer since the 1970's . Even though we now live in Liverpool we still go to Northwich as we love the Town and always enjoy the Fish and Chips at the Seafarer afterwards. . They are always freshly cooked and the fish is in a very light batter and the chips are first rate to. And don't forget the mushy peas as well. Hope you enjoy them as much as we have all these years.
