  “It's a good place too meet up with mates for a drink and some wee snacks and generally quite nice and the price is decent I pay 15 quid for what you see in the photo. Just he warned the menu has changed from some of the photos on here so there no vegi burgers which is a bit of a bummer. Tho if your coming here for a nice meal there roast on the Sunday is quite good and don't get me wrong the food here is good, I loved the wedges I had but I feel like the fox over in Halton is slightly better for food alone and both vibes are equal and the server here at the wheel and compass was very quick and nice so don't get me wrong it's good here but if you care just for food I highly recommend the fox.”

  “Table for 4 on a monday night. Pub barman was polite accommodating and as helpfull as you could ask for... 10/10 HOWEVER Manageress / supervisor was loud and dismissive of any criticism of a Very poor curry (to which 4 people at the table agreed was sweet! ) "had SLUSH PUPPY'S less sweet" Also tables near the kitchen area be prepared to hear all the general swearing in the conversation from chef to supervisor/ staff (not great in a famiy meal with child present) Food: Pork belly 8/10 lovely but forgot the cider jus 🤷🏻‍♂️ Turkey & cranberry pie 7/10 very nice Steak and Stilton hot baguette 7/10 very nice Tikka Masala 2/10 super sweet more of a desert than a curry (average rice & naan)”

  “We ate so much it was ridiculous! Absolutely spoilt for choice! A party of 4 on a Monday which was pie special day but we genuinely couldn't pick which one to choose 100% we will be back soon. Everything was delicious. Atmosphere was perfect and the park is great for the little ones. Long live the Hawkstone btw!!”

  “I don’t write many reviews unless they’re truly deserved, but this is a pub that definitely deserves some credit! This was our second visit to the Wheel & Compass, and once again we had a fantastic experience. I’ve had the homemade beer-battered fish on both visits, and both times it has been absolutely delicious — hats off to the chef! The atmosphere is great, the staff are incredibly friendly and accommodating, and the prices offer brilliant value for money. All round, it’s a fantastic establishment and has quickly become my new favourite place. The play area and swing for my little boy are also a massive bonus and make it a great place for families. We’ll definitely be back again soon and will happily be recommending the Wheel & Compass to friends and family. Thank you to all the staff at the Wheel & Compass for two wonderful lunches!”

  “Took my grandparents for a meal and this there favourite restaurant. It was busy but we were seated quickly, we had the carvery which was well sized and tasted great. No rush service and had a good range of drinks (beers/ciders). The staff were super friendly. We can see why it is there favourite place.”

  “Discovered this place by chance whilst walking yesterday. A lovely, welcoming, relaxed, classic pub serving proper homecooked food. The whole experience from start to finish was a delight. We received a warm welcome as soon as we walked in. The food was delicious and in hearty portions. All truly home-made. I selfishly tried a bit of everyone's, it was so good! Recommend the pie, the kiev, the liver, and the ham egg and chips. Beer was good too. The service was great also. We sat in the beer garden, which is immaculate and has good views over cow fields and the village. The kids loved it. Best of all was the value. £51.50 for four adult main meals and four drinks. It was such good value I wish I'd not bothered going shopping for our holiday accommodation. Easier to go to the pub! We were all stuffed and very happy at the end. When people want to become a publican, they should send then here to learn exactly how to do it! We will be back.”

  “What a lovely little gem in the East Midlands! The food is amazing - a scrumptious burger and to die for lasagne! The chips are fresh and crispy, and there’s a great selection of beers. What more could one ask for!?”
