SEASONAL FOOD IN UNSPOILT SURROUNDINGS
The Cheshire Cat in Christleton is a country pub oozing rural charm and rustic character. Our picturesque surroundings provide the perfect backdrop for savouring the hearty, seasonal pub-food on our menu, and the carefully nurtured cask ales and fine wines gracing our bar.

Built on a site of much historic importance, The Cheshire Cat is said to sit on the grounds of a battle fought between the Cavaliers and Roundheads. Originally constructed in 1801, the building was seconded by the government as an administration office in World War II, it was left derelict until 1970 before being beautifully restored to reflect its long and interesting heritage.

Our regal inn, offering accommodation and spacious gardens, is on the edge of Chester, founded by the Romans. The pub was built in 1801 on the site of an English Civil War battlefield.

Had the worst meal for long time. My cod was over cooked, rubbery and tasteless. The meal was barely warm. My other guests were not overly enthused by their food either. Very disappointed. And to add insult to injury the service was diabolically slow. Took over an hour to get main meal served and half an hour to receive desserts, which were the better part of the meal. I didn’t complain as what is the point- if they offered me something else it probably would have been so long in the coming to the table that my guests would have long finished their dinners. But I will never ever be going back there again.

The food and the cooking was generally of very poor quality. £22 for an extremely overcooked poor quality fillet steak and stringy overcooked asparagus was very embarrassing because I chose the venue. The sirloin was extremely well done when I asked for medium rare and it was tasteless and tough. I do not like complaining but it was very disappointing.

We enjoyed our meal here. Although it was nothing out of the ordinary, the service was relaible and the food nicely presented. We might go again if in the area.
