About Alvanley Arms

This 400-year-old coaching inn is full of character, charm and atmosphere. It’s set just off the A49 at Cotebrook, near Tarporley, in the midst of the beautiful Cheshire countryside. The cosy beamed bar complete with log fire provides a warm welcome in winter and in summer there’s no better spot that the beer garden overlooking the duck pond and trout lake.  Food is served every day from 12 noon through to 9pm (8pm Sundays) with all meals cooked to order and prepared from fresh seasonal produce. There’s also a range of quality cask ales and an extensive wine list along draught lagers, ciders, soft drinks and a selection of coffees to choose from. And if you fancy staying over for either business or pleasure, the Alvanley Arms has six beautifully appointed en-suite bedrooms.

We are new to the area so still finding our feet with the pubs . It was very disappointing that when we sat down we were sat next to a very rowdy table of 12 people you literally couldn’t hear yourself speak . The young girl came to take our food order and unfortunately there wasn’t any Sunday roasts left at 6 pm , think the rowdy Table had them all !! This seemed to be a theme throughout , as we went to order a bottle of wine and they had ran out of it ! Didn’t ask if we wanted anything else in its place . Which I thought was very ignorant. The food itself when it finally came out was lovely but at that point I just wanted to eat and get out . As my head was ringing . Sorry Alvanley we won’t be coming back

Service was really good and the food was fantastic especially the Sunday lunch. Can’t remember the ladies name but she lives in Winsford and she is a credit to the restaurant

On arrival was told to go and seat ourselves, wrong table number was given as it was already occupied. Dining room was small and packed. Very busy and not good for people with anxiety or just those who don't like hearing other people's conversations from the other side of the room. It was 20 minutes before our drinks order was taken, we had to ask to order food at the same time. 25 minutes until our starters arrived and not quite as described on the menu. For a company that owns other pubs in the area, you would expect consistency of food quality and staffing. Unfortunately, it differs greatly, and this is one place we won't be returning to.

Excellent Sunday lunch. It's a busy pub, but we were seated quickly and drinks arrived within a couple of minutes - including a water bowl for the dog. Food came out quickly too but had clearly been freshly cooked (no microwaves were harmed in the preparation of that food). Service was attentive and friendly but fortunately we weren't pestered by a thousand people asking if everything was ok (just one person asked and, yes, it was ok). Good portion size - big enough but not too big to prevent a pudding. Drinks selection was spot on with a few hand pulled beers and a good wine list.

We enjoyed a wonderful meal, my steak was cooked to perfection, and my sisters scampi was equally good. Great service, prompt, and service with a smile, the atmosphere as always was perfect. The only downside was the chocolate, cherry and rum tart, it had run out again, i have yet to taste this dessert, but considering it is in demand, it must be good, i joked with the lady that served us, that when booking in future, i should pre book the desert. I have given 5/5 for every category, and i would give more if i could.

Beautiful setting and lovely pub. Staff very friendly and welcoming. Been here a few times and had my parents visiting from Scotland so was the obvious choice for a meal. Couldn't fault the food, it was beautiful.
