  “Just got back from having a lovely lunch at this pub. We hadn't booked, and it was busy when we arrived, but all staff members were lovely and chatty and couldn't do more to help us. After seating us at a nice table and taking our order, all the staff were happy to be working and having lots of banter eith regular customers. The food was served promptly, and was hot and delicious! (We had the king prawn flatbread and fried brie to start- would highly recommend). Mains were just as delicious, but sadly we were too full for pud! If I could give more than 5 stars for service I would! Everyone that was working today is a credit to this establishment, and I'm hoping to be able to go more often!”

  “Just had THE BEST fish pie for lunch. Can't recommend this place highly enough. Friendly, helpful staff, cosy atmosphere and everything is spick and span. Thank you to Justin and his team x”

  “Stunning garden to eat great quality pub food and great service. We had burgers and sticky beef salad which was perfectly cooked with fresh ingredients. Plenty of seating outside and inside. Recommend to book if you want to sit inside”

  “Stu is a fantastic landlord, there's a ginger guy called john who was absolutely amazing he gave us the best service. By far the best bartender we have come across in chester. All the rest of the staff are lovely. 10/10 would come back again xx”

  “We had a glorious sunny evening which obviously helped but we enjoyed. A delicious 3 course meal. It was not cheap but we thought it was good value. I enjoyed the Boar, pork and apple pie. I think the menu changes but there were plenty of other options I was happy with. The cheeseboard was more generous than many I have had.”

  “We arrived without a reservation but were given a table immediately in the main area opposite the bar. Welcome was lovely. Order taken by a lovely waitress and food and drink arrived promptly. Food was beautifully presented and was delicious. Unfortunately a family with 4 small children was seated next to us and the parents exercised no control over them- they were allowed to run around, sit on bar stools etc. As the pub was busy we were not aware of any available tables to move to. This is a quality pub for adults and if families are permitted they should be sat in designated areas and parents should be encouraged to exercise control over their offspring so as not to disturb the pleasure of others. We will return when we next visit the area.”

  “Lovely local pub that's worth a stop. A classic, beautiful and local pub. Drinks on tap were great, the service was excellent and friendly, and the food was good.”

  “@salt_and_pepper_reviews .............................. And so another day off and another day exploring the North West for some lovely food 😋 Today we thought we would try the @grosvenor.arms a gorgeous little pub just outside Chester in Aldford. it's a lovely old pub run by @brunningandprice we love the @rakehallpub so we thought we would give it a go. The staff is what makes a good pub and the three or four members of staff we spoke to were lovely and then of course the food @stephw22 had the Crispy Beef Salad and I went for the Pulled Beef Brisket Cottage Pie. Both were amazing Steph barely spoke so I know the Crispy beef was good and I absolutely loved the Cottage Pie its the perfect time of year for a lovely Cottage pie and roast veggies and this was possibly the best cottage pie I have ever had 👌🥰🥰 all washed down for me with a gorgeously smooth pint of @timothytaylorsbrewery boltmaker Bitter I mean what could be better? We would highly recommend a visit 🍻 #foodreviews #honestfoodreviews #saltandpepper #stephandPhill #whynot #weloveourfood #northwest #Liverpool #Chester #Wirral #EllesmerePort #cottagepie #pepperoni #weloveourfood #goodscran #helpusgrow #newtothis #rudyspizzaliverpool #goandtryit #saltandpepperreviews #brunningandprice #thegrosvenorarms #@timothytaylorsbrewery #boltmaker #igerscheshire #igerswirral #igersliverpool #Foodies We decided to start our food reviews as friends work colleagues always asked us to recommend places to eat as we are a pair of foodies who just love to try new places to eat so thought why not share with family friends and hopefully more and we hope you try some of these local independent food places that we visit. This is all our own thoughts and feelings we are not paid by anyone to give these reviews”

  “We were hungry on our way to Chester and stopped here on a whim. What a lovely find! The bar/restaurant had a beautiful, cosy atmosphere. The bar and waiting staff were friendly. Also, there was a bonus dog, Peggy (I am not sure if she lives in the pub or belonged to a local/regular, but she was so precious!). I didn't fancy any of the vegan mains on the menu. However, there was a Christmas menu that looked more like a bit of me, but it was quite dear, and I didn't intend to spend a lot. So I decided to have a starter (I had the pumpkin, sage, and pearl barley risotto with toasted seeds and crematta) with some chips on the side. The risotto was easily one of the tastiest risottos I've ever had. It was so creamy and flavourful! I wasn't a fan of the chunky chips as they were a little too hard for my liking, I wish I got the fries instead. My partner had the Appleby's Cheshire cheese, onion, and potato pie, with green vegetables and white wine mustard sauce. He said it was the best pie he's ever had, and he isn't even veggie or vegan! I was pleased that they had oat milk available for their hot drinks. Also, the tea was Yorkshire Tea which is a real winner in my eyes! It's a shame we don't live near Chester as we had a really lovely experience and would like to eat here more often.”

  “Lovely place. Good sized car park. Great selection of food and drink (including gluten free and vegan). My fishcake dish was just delicious.The bill was very reasonable. It was the perfect place to catch up with friends. I would highly recommend and cannot wait to return.”
