Reviews in Knutsford

We had two meals with our stay at the hotel and both meals were superb The three courses were beautifully served and the best meals we have had At a hotel in a long time the service was great food very hot and delicious We had a great stay

The service was good, the waitress very pleasant. The afternoon tea was good except we were served whipped cream instead of clotted cream for the scones and the finger sandwiches were made with cheap bread that wasn’t fresh. Another pointer is the receptionist obviously has your booking on her screen. So why announce to the world “is it a Groupon deal”? She could request to see email confirmation or printed confirmation. No need to mention Groupon. Its not helpful for the hotel either. People think if they are on Groupon they must be struggling.

Excellent service , great food our third visit and we will be back soon

Lovely afternoon tea for Father’s Day

Afternoon Tea was wonderful in pleasant dining area, service excellent , food was very nice and the venue is very nice in loverly surroundings,would recommend to anybody.

We came for a champagne afternoon tea on 17/6/23 We were asked where we would like to sit and Maria who looked after us was very polite without being overbearing. The food was fresh and appetising and the drinks hot and plentiful. The champagne was cold and fizzy lol. All in all a lovely experience.

Four of us enjoyed afternoon tea here in a very pleasant dining area. We had a large full teapot each and just about enough milk. The sandwiches were delicious with plenty of filling and the scones warm (would have preferred clotted cream though). The cakes were perhaps not as “ exciting “ as we have had at other venues but still ok. It would have been nice if some one had asked us if we needed anything and if everything was satisfactory!

Lovely afternoon tea. I am gluten free and was still able to have an array of treats. Lovely, friendly staff on reception and serving the food. A lovely afternoon treat.

Afternoon tea was out of this world. Top quality food and lovely glass of champagne. Staff were friendly and efficient. The building is set in a lovely location and gardens are beautiful.

Received the warmest of welcomes from a great receptionist which got us off to a good start. Dined well in the restaurant - food was spot on and the waiter did an impeccable job. I have thought hard and tried to find a negative but I can’t so top marks all round. Earlier in the year we stayed in two 5 star hotels in London - staff at Mere Court could give a lesson or two in how hospitality should be done. Thank you to all concerned for going that extra mile for these 2 very satisfied customers.

Lovely afternoon T, couldn't fault it. Good service and we had a lovely sunny day. Sandwiches were fresh, scone warm and a good selection of cakes.

Evening meal at this beautiful hotel. We’ve been several times and had our daughters wedding venue here. Top Class service with delicious freshly cooked food. Lovely place to eat, relaxed atmosphere & friendly staff. Thanks

Afternoon tea. It was delicious, beautifully presented, service excellent, and can I say the scones are to die for. A lovely end to an afternoon. Highly recommend. Thank you.

Lovely afternoon tea, very well organised. Thank you

We had afternoon tea on a day there was also a wedding however we were still made to feel special, the food was delicious and surroundings were lovely

First class food and service. Everything was beautifully presented. Staff were extremely helpful. Would highly recommend.

We came here for lunch on my birthday. We had wanted something special for the occasion and we were not disappointed. The food was lovely, the staff were friendly and attentive and there was a lovely ambiance in this beautiful house and grounds. Although we were not the only customers - lots of cars in the car park and groups of people arrived during the time we were eating - we had a room entirely to ourselves with a window seat overlooking the garden so it felt exclusive.

Had afternoon on a lovely sunny Friday afternoon. We were seated by a young waiter who asked if we wanted tea or coffee. It’s wasn’t until he went that we helped ourself to the menu on the table which have us different tea options to choose from. We were not offered any water or other drinks which I found odd. We then received our afternoon tea and the sandwiches were lovely. The scones and cream however were awful. You’d expect some lovely clotted cream. What we got I described as looking like vanilla icecream and it tasted so sour. I didn’t risk eating it as I’m pregnant. My husband searched the venue for a member of staff and resorted to asking reception. The young waiter came back and we explained our concerns re- the sour cream. He sent it back to the kitchen and came back with fresh cream and said the chef had taste me it and it was fine. Freshly made this morning using vanilla. Maybe we just don’t have very good taste buds but again it was sour. We then never saw a member of staff again until we left and spoke to the receptionist.
