About Egerton Arms, Astbury
Egerton Arms, Astbury is a pub in Congleton with rooms on site, set in a 16th-century lodging opposite the church in Astbury. The small hotel attached to the pub gives overnight guests a view over the beer garden, and breakfast is not served. The kitchen runs Sunday lunch with roasts and Yorkshire puddings, and a specials board has carried ox cheek. Rag pudding is also on the menu. A private dining room takes groups, and dogs are welcome. Glebe children's farm is a walk away.

“Excellent food as always and a lovely place to meet and catch up with friends. Service good except, as has happened before, no-one came to ask if we would like any desserts. People can often be tempted in the moment, and staff not offering leads to loss of revenue for the business and slight disappointment for the customers. Our time slot was up and it was busy, so we left.”

“Had a lovely family meal. Staff so accomodating and friendly. No vegan options on the menu other than chips. Bit pricey for Sunday lunch, but my family enjoyed the food and good portions. Lovely kids play area outside belonging to the pub. High chairs for kids. Can't comment on rooms, didn't see them.”
