Taking prime spot in Barons Quay, BEAR Northwich is situated in a bright, South-East facing corner unit overlooking the beautiful River Weaver. Floor-to-ceiling windows wrap around two of the outer walls, flooding the store with natural light and showing off some incredible views; the ideal accompaniment to go with with your morning coffee and brunch OR a date night pizza and a couple of cocktails! Plus our expansive outdoor seating area is the only place you’ll want to be on a sunny day, iced coffee in-hand. Trust us.

    Terrible service, we paid for our ordered & waited over an hour, when we asked if our food was coming staff said it hadn’t been processed as we had moved tables ( even though we had asked the staff if we could due to noise levels and my mother in law being partially deaf)we asked for a refund & the manager was very rude and accused me of pointing at her staff when I complained, the reasoning they gave was because they had a table of 18 people to serve and mistakes happen. No apologies given. Such a shame as my family had gone for a celebration breakfast, instead we left hungry and disappointed, I couldn’t believe the bad attitude from the manager on duty, no customer service at all. Wouldn’t recommend.

    We booked for brunch as a special outing after some recent events. When we walked in we weren’t sure where we had to go as we’ve never been. We were told to take a seat and someone would be over. We sat for half an hour before we went up and ordered at the counter. It was fairly busy for a Monday, we were fine getting up to order but we were confused why we were told someone would be over. The food was absolutely incredible though, there was one chef in the kitchen and we went over and gave our compliments personally. The drinks were also gorgeous and everyone was so polite. Like I said just maybe a bit more clarity for new visitors of how service works would be a little appreciated but, we know it was busy and everything else was amazing.

    Park in Asda and walk. Don't follow GPS. Wifi and phone signal is non-existent. Food is nice, the staff are pleasant and prices are reasonable.
