a regular haunt! love the food and atmosphere! Tasty ad good portions

My two kids and I took my wife to the lilac cottage for my wife’s birthday. It was perfect, most of the tapas was very authentic with a few additional North African dishes. The food started to arrive quickly and came out as it was cooked, There was s marvellous array of flavours. All four of us had chosen a favourite dish plus we had one of the plattas, none of it disappointed. We also had a paella for two between the four of us. This too was delicious, but we needn’t have worried about the portion size, unfortunately ‘this meant we had over ordered. Half the paella was left. This is now firmly one of the family favourites and my daughter is now planning to have her birthday there too.

A great long-lunch. I'm already looking forward to a return visit.

Afternoon tea with bottomless prosecco for 4 of us and it was superb! We got a bottle brought to us on arrival which was great as we didn’t need to ask for it, the service was perfect, the food was amazing & nothing was too much trouble! One of the best afternoon teas we’ve had and would highly recommend! Thank you for a great afternoon! :-)

We took advantage of Travelzoo and together with my sister in law four of us had a wonderful experience during the summer eating a first class three course meal outside in the small courtyard. Not only was the food comparable with the best in Chester, but the service was superb as well. Having had such a good experience we decided to buy some more Travelzoo vouchers as my brother in law was coming to stay and wanted to take us all out for a meal at his expense. Well, sadly the food was nothing like the standard we had experienced before, whilst the service was still first class as were the surroundings, the chef/cook must not have been the same one we had been lucky enough to have the first time, the food was a real disappointment. A few weeks later we used up our last voucher and as we were taking a very dear old friend, warned her not to expect too much, again the experience was not like our first visit when it came to the food, although the service was just as good. It is so sad I cannot give this lovely property a first class rating, but, if you rely on getting a good chef and they let you down, no amount of first class interior design and pleasant front of house can make up for a poor meal. If the staff let you down, perhaps it would be better to have a very simple menu, which only uses first class ingredients on the lines of roast ham or roast chicken served in brioche buns, fish and chips and burgers, or really, really good salads, something which can be assembled by anyone provided they have a picture in front of them, not fine dining, but good quality easy to prepare food, asking how you like your steak, then taking no notice, offering obviously different cuts than the ones ordered of poor quality steak could be avoided and at least the food should be edible and enjoyable.

Excellent meal, really enjoyed our visit, and the staff were very friendly and professional.Thank you.

Went here on Friday for my daughter’s 18th, great food, lovely atmosphere and friendly staff, as always. 5 stars

Great place in a lovely spot. Eat here regularly!

We love the Cheshire Yeoman. It is a family owned business and the food is always freshly prepared and we’ll presented. I always have the fillet steak, which THE BEST steak you can get for miles around. Their Sunday roast is pretty amazing also.

First visit on Saturday night and we were impressed with the food and the service. The garlic steak was delicious and the gammon and pineapple was fantastic will be going again soon

Haven't been for a while and brought some friends who were visiting. Wasn't disappointed. The service was fantastic, great food, lovely atmosphere...all reasonably priced. Would highly recommend.
