It was very busy when we were there which I suppose explains why we waited almost an hour for our food! Upon saying that I have to say the Lasagne was the best I have ever eaten :) staff very friendly. The roast lunches looked excellent too :)
Excellent service, food and atmosphere. Would highly recommend it. We'd ordered a variety of dishes in our party and each one was delicious! Highly recommend!
Great atmosphere! Been coming here for decades and have always loved it. It had a face-lift not too long ago but it still retains a lovely pub atmosphere.
Great food options and drinks selection. Very friendly service and Paul is always very welcoming!
Highly recommend!
Spent bank holiday Jan 2nd 2023 here with my family for our last lunch out. I'm giving it a 4 star for its fabulous location, inspiring building and stunning, warm interior, it's the perfect country pub.
The food was good and very tasty, only thing to mention for me was I would have liked a little more flavor.
Kids meals are very good and they have a good choice for children.
The service began very well indeed and I must add always has been in the past, although when we asked for the desert menu it took an easy 10 minutes to arrive, then when no one approached and a further 15 minutes past we decided to get the bill and leave and not have desert after all as we expected a lengthy wait. I will note the pub was not over busy at this point and I feel this was only a slight oversight from staff on the floor.
Finally the beer, local, and tasty in particular the Big Tree amber ale.
Worth a visit.
One of my favorite country pubs. Loads of parking spaces, very cozy ambiances and the food is pretty good as well! I love that they offer a mini cake with a coffee for dessert as an option because sometimes that is all I can eat after a big Sunday lunch.
Been here a few times, had a nice meal, great atmosphere.
Amazing pub in a very idyllic location close to Dunham Massey park. The young owner who lives on site (lucky guy) made us feel incredibly welcome and we spend a few hours over a lovely leisurely lunch in the sun in the front garden.
Highly recommended and Hasta la vista 🙏
Had lunch with family at the Axe and Cleaver the last week in August, following a birthday.
Not been there for at least a year.
It appears to be under new management.
The menu much improved, along with the chef.
Had a very good lunch, the food was delicious. The sea bass was outstanding.
Good service.
Let's hope it stays that way.
Very lovely, would definitely come again. Great menu, good options, very affordable, kind staff.
Only feedback was my partners mushroom wellington only had 4 mushrooms in. Other than that, top notch.
As a family, we really love this restaurant and have been visiting for many years. We decided to book a evening meal on the spur of the moment and we were so glad we did. The evening was top notch. The food was excellent, the staff were attentive and lovely and the atmosphere was cozy. Such a lovely evening. Well recommended. A good varied menu of food and drink. Definitely one of our favourite places to dine out. Thank you.
Alyson and Karl did an excellent job keeping up with our party of 16. Neil and James in the kitchen delivered an amazing rib of beef, and Venison roast (specials board). The pie was brilliant. The 5 children all enjoyed their meals.
Thanks team.
Delicious Sunday lunch and sea bass and scallops. Benn, our server, was very attentive and friendly. Fair prices for what we had and good sized portions.
