Our Sunday lunch at The Piper was truly excellent, a rare find. For starters, our party of four had the mozzerella cheese sticks, breaded prawns, and the stilton & garlic mushrooms. The breading on the cheese sticks and prawns was crispy, well-seasoned, and deliciously craggly. All three were excellent. For mains, three of us had the Sunday roast, and one of us the halloumi 'fish' & and chips. As with the starters, the halloumi was deliciously breaded, the chips lovely and crispy, and all of it was generously portioned. But for me, the roasts were the absolute star of the dinner: the beef (pictured) was tender, being a slightly pink medium doneness (I would have preferred slightly rarer, but that is personal taste); the potatoes & parsnips were nicely seasoned and the cabbage & leek was excellent; and the chef even added some beautifully crispy deep-fried kale (it could have been seaweed?) as an inspired umami kick throughout the dish, which complimented the gravy, mash, & crispy yorkshires very nicely. Two of also bought three pigs in blankets each as extras, for £3.50. It was honestly one of the nicest roasts I've had the pleasure of enjoying. For desserts (pictured), we had a vegan cherry sundae (made from delicious coconut ice 'cream'), and the chocolate fudge cake with ice cream. Both were very nice and well portioned. Four of us spent just over £100 including soft drinks and the roasts' add-ons, which felt very reasonable considering the quality of the food. Can't wait to return to The Piper for more!

We came here because of electric car charging, but due to good reviews, I gave it a try. Food is very nice with reasonable price, service is prompt and friendly. We tried 2 types of fish and chips. Although both are good, but I recommend Halloumi fish and chips. Cajun fried chicken burger is good too. Yes, the toilet is clean too. Overall good stop and excellent food.

Not been here for years. Called in for a quick pint while waiting for my lift. Large pub, with plenty of tables, inside and out, sport on the TV. They serve food but didn't have time to eat, but looked a good varied menu, will try when I come back and have more time.

It's a great family pub, with pub food as expected. The atmosphere is really good and staff are extremely friendly. There are a small selection of kids games and lots of music. We feel comfortable bringing a 2 1/4 year old.

Very warm welcome. Clean and tidy venue, but with slightly dinged decor. Quirky hand written menus, with a decent choice of classic pub grub. Food was served at a good pace, came piping hot and tasted great.

Great Sunday roast, starter mushroom soup was full of flavour. Roast was perfect, meat quality and the vegetables. Generous portions and great value for money! Staff here are welcoming and helpful. Atmosphere is great. Have been for roast twice here both times have been top notch! Highly recommended!

Headed here after a holiday in North Wales. Made a beeline because it had two rapid electric car chargers and I knew we'd be arriving at lunch time and kids would be hungry. Very glad we did! Not only were the chargers in fine working order but the server could not have been more helpful and more courteous to our kids and ourselves. Fantastic service. The food, also, was hearty and delicious. Sunday roasts and a couple of puds - all cooked to perfection. Just a real gem of a pub and if you want an hour long break on your journey up the M6 this is a great option, especially if you have an EV to top up.

Nice friendly bar lady offering efficient service. Me and my work colleagues have been there a few times and the food was always good. Drank lots there and prices are reasonable with a nice outside seating area and pool table inside.

Took the two kids fathers day and had a great experience, staff were amazing with the kids (4 + 6), first time eating there since the new guys took over, food was great, kids menu had ran out of their popular dish but second choice still worked well, thanks for an enjoyable experience.

We had our wake for our beloved George here today. It was one of his favourite places, two unassuming 80 year old men drinking a quie pint in the corner. It was very emotional but the team at The Piper did us, and George, proud. A 5* spread from a team that obviously cares. Thankyou, it means so much xx regardless of the type of event I would recommend The Piper, they are professional, caring, attentive to details and well organised.

I found myself and partner in Cheshire for a family event. We arrived late evening and saw a pub with a car park, it also had a car electric charging area which I have not seen before in local pubs. The pub is in Hoole Chester , and from walking in the front door it was a great experience. I am used to gastro pubs and other public houses all over London and Surrey I found this pub beats any other establishment hands down The welcome from staff was great amd very friendly, it made you feel that your choosing to eat at The Piper was the fulfilment of the operators dreams. I was taken care of by bar staff from my first interaction with them. I ordered food for two, my partner chose Hunters Chicken , and I had a Bacon Burger, I have to say it was timely, hot and amazing food, the best Burger I have enjoyed since a very expensive trip to Culloden house, where an award winning Chef, handmade me a Burger. I was told the Piper was recently under new managment, and had been remodelled. They have clearly spared no expense when making the changes and upgrading the facilities. If your local, or even passing through the area, you will be pleasently surprised by the amazing establishment. Treat yourself amd family, there is also live music at weekends. Support this buisness if you wish to keep the local area alive, for good food beer and entertainment. Ken Muir Bsc hons
