  “Excellent food, lovely staff, attentive service. Our visit was a Wednesday and relatively early eve so the pub was quiet, however the building/decor are immaculate and high quality.”

  “I used to think my granny made an amazing Sunday roast but what I ate today was on another level. Black pudding starter was incredible as was the beef main course. Service was great and even better was that nobody interrupted me half way through each course to ask me if everything was okay. Perfect.”

  “We dined on 26/07, table of 2 for Sunday dinner. We were greeted at the entrance to the dining area and seated swiftly by what I can only assume was the manager on shift. Unfortunately this is where the service seemed to begin and end. We sat for 35 minutes waiting for our drinks order to be taken, in the meantime I had gone to the toilet and chanced getting served at the bar, waited 5 minutes and nobody turned up. After our drinks eventually arrived our food order was taken, at this point we had been at the table for 40 minutes. There couldn’t have been more than 12 tables in the whole building and 4 staff on the floor! Food arrived, no offer of sauces. When we asked the young lad he said “oh yeah” as if we had reminded him to ask us. No check back and nothing said when our plates were collected other than if we would like the dessert menu. I actually finished my drink as he was at the table and there was no offer of another drink, my partner had been sat with an empty glass for 15 minutes. Maybe that’s a theme here as the two tables next to us that had left over 45 minutes prior still had all their glasses and dirty plates on the table too. The food itself was actually 10/10 and I couldn’t fault a single thing. Such a shame the service let the place down massively and as such we won’t be returning any time soon. The lady in the blue blouse who seated us seemed to know what she was doing, it’s a shame we only dealt with her the once, but the two young lads and other young girl need training asap.”

  “We thought we'd try the Sunday menu. It absolutely blew us away! The food is amazing! The service is really friendly and not rushed. We even had a little sausage treat for our dog too. A wonderful way to spend a sunday afternoon.”

  “Drove past this pub many times, over the years, but decided to finally give it a try,, 30 minutes from our home, but well worth the drive,, Booked a table for two, late afternoon on a Friday, can't be doing with a crowded evening out any more. The Inn was very comfortable & warm on this cold rainy day,, good selection of beers & wines, decent prices too, expected it to be more expensive to be honest,, We arrived a bit early, so had a cheeky beer in the luxurious bar area, settees & soft furnishings were well presented. Very friendly staff made us feel welcome,, Small but interesting choices on the menu, we settled down to our table & chose our meals, I went for the Venison with glazed baked carrots, my wife chose the lamb,, Both meals were exceptional,and reasonably priced too !! Would normally expect to pay more in Chester city centre restaurants,, A very enjoyable couple of hours, no room for desert,,, lovely meal. An added whimsical bonus was the carved mice around the property, anyone who's heard of the "mouse man" Robert Thompson, will know of his work,, Lovely touch,,, children would love it ,, Thanks to all the staff & management involved,, Will definitely recommend & will be back in the New Year,, Cheers to the Inn,,,, Dave and Sheenagh Green,,”

  “We had our wedding at The Inn at Huxley on 30.11.2024 and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The venue is absolutely beautiful – rustic with wooden beams that create such a warm, charming atmosphere, and the ceremony space with its glass doors made for the most stunning backdrop. The outdoor areas are equally gorgeous and added so much to the day. The food was incredible – our guests kept telling us it was the best food they had ever had at a wedding, and we couldn’t agree more. Every course was exceptional. We had to change our date last minute and nothing was ever too much trouble. Clive was amazing throughout the entire process – supportive, responsive, and always available whenever we needed help or reassurance. The Inn at Huxley is a truly special venue, and we feel so lucky to have celebrated our day there. We cannot recommend it highly enough!”

  “Its not very often I review venues, as I prefer to pass both complement and criticism to the team at the time. That said, my bucket list stop, every time I arrive in the beautiful Cheshie countryside, is The Inn in Huxley, just down the road from my parents home. I've been lucky in my life, having dined in some awesome places, but if its a mix of exemplary service, quality produce and welcoming atmosphere, the this place has it in plenty. From the smiling friendly welcome of the host, Clive, and his superbly trained staff, where nothing is too much trouble, to the buzz of happy diners throughout the venue and rounded off by beautifully prepared and presented dishes from the hard working kitchen. Today, I had a perfectly balanced Negroni, a rich and unqutios French onion soup, smothered in melted cheese, a perfectly roasted sirloin, rich flavoursome gravy, crisp, fluffy Yorkshire pudding accompanied by excellent fresh vegetables, and a super wobbly white chocolate panna cotta; all washed down with a super crisp rosé to match the lovely weather. Having cheffed in venues around the world and dined at some of the world's best restaurants, The Inn offers quality, consistency and leaves me with a smile on my face when I pay my bill. Value for money 10/10. Quality 10/10 Welcome 10/10. I'm in the country for another couple of weeks and will absolutely be back in for yet another great meal before I travel back. If you are reading this then do yourself a favour. In a world full of mediocrity, get yourself to The Inn, relax and enjoy food that hasn't seen a microwave or come out of a packet and where requests, if feasible, are granted with a smile.”

  “Visiting while on holiday and chosen to mark a family birthday, so we hoped it was OK and absolutely blown away. Staff were delightful, just the right level of service and attention, but always friendly. Food excellent, tasty and good value for money, and good selection of drinks, including non alcoholic. The building is beautiful. Loved the stone and wood carvings and attention to detail. Definitely worth a visit. Wish we lived nearer!”

  “Never been here before as it's quite a way from Anfield. It has a huge car park, so parking is good. It's interior is beautifully designed and very well furnished. Service is was very good, staff were attentive and helpful. Food was well presented and reasonably priced for the quality and quantity. I tried the Chicken Pakora curry, which came with rice and naan bread. I would recommend you try it out.”
