At the heart of the Crewe campus of Cheshire College South & West lies Academy Restaurant — a distinctive dining experience where rising hospitality talent serves creative, well-cooked meals with professionalism and pride. What looks like a cosy city bistro echoes the style of Manchester’s Northern Quarter yet operates as a working training kitchen and service environment, allowing students to hone real-world restaurant skills while diners enjoy high-quality cuisine. The menu changes seasonally, drawing on locally-sourced produce and offering thoughtfully prepared dishes - whether it’s a refined lunch (Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays) or a full multi-course dinner (Thursdays). Academy Restaurant also runs regular Gourmet evenings and special events, often under the guidance of experienced northwest chefs such as Paul Askew.
