The Decor is very nice, with a good atmosphere, the food and service was also very good and reasonably priced too. The outside area looked lovely too.

Meals are excellent, particularly the Sunday lunch but soft drinks are overpriced., £3.00 for a pint of orange and lemonade is unacceptable. This is getting into Lager territory and penalises drivers avoiding alcoholic beverages. The Church Inn in Cheadle Hulme charges £2.38 for the same drink. I think it might be "corporation pop" for me in future.

Never dined here before, found there was a wide variety of choice on the menu. We went for the two course option with a lovely Sunday lunch as the main. Great food and attentive staff.

Service friendly as always and all the food was lovely. The new menu only has one veggie main though which was disappointing but the nice lady who served us said she would try to get another put on the specials board.

Good atmosphere, my husband would have preferred a greater beer selection. Main courses were good, desserts were disappointing. A good selection of soft drinks, though. I enjoyed my elderflower.

We all had the sirloin steak which was extremely tender, although asked for medium rare was more medium but still delicious. Service was good. Waitress pleasant.

Love the Farmers Arms. Great food and the staff are always a delight. If I had any criticism I would like to see menu changes more often than at present.

Pros: Lovely pub/restaurant. Staff were able to add an extra place to the table at short notice. Good choice of food. Cons: Menus starting to look a bit tatty around the edges and feel sticky.

An interesting menu, very friendly service, high quality food, very pleasant surroundings. We had lunch there with friends on a very busy Friday and the only drawback was that desserts took a long time to arrive and one of our party had to cancel his and leave at 2pm. (We arrived at 12.15.) Otherwise - a very enjoyable visit, and we shall certainly be back.

Had to go looking for staff in order to pay the bill - very disappointing. We were completely ignored once the plates had been cleared.

The staff are excellent and the decor is beautiful and they alone would get the highest rsting. The food is nice but I'm fed up with the same menu - It's been the same menu for over a year. Also, why do I have to eat my sharing platter off a saucer? Sadly that is why I'm only giving it a 3. I'm not going again unless they change the menu and buy some proper plates.

Fish was delicious and plenty of it, no critism over any of the meals. Service a little on the slow side but this did not worry us as we could have loads of time to converse converse with our friends.

Last minute treat for my girls and I. As always the service was excellent, food was good although I could have done with a hot plate as my food didn't retain its heat very well. My vegetable accompaniment was warm and not very interesting, all boiled and colourless. Overall it was a very enjoyable visit and would return.

We enjoyed choosing from a menu which offered a good selection of starters and mains in a very pleasant restaurant with a welcoming atmosphere. All four of us thought that the dishes chosen were well presented and good quality. Our chosen wine, a Malbec, was enjoyable enough to warrant ordering a second bottle. Moving on to dessert we again thought there was a good choice. Although there seemed to be a delay in getting the meal started, the service was efficient and friendly. When the time came to pay we were not disappointed particularly considering we had 2 bottles of wine and coffees to finish.

Excellent service once seated. A little bit manic in the bar area when we arrived so had to hang around waiting at the reception table which wasn't manned. Food excellent although small portion of lamb on my main considering the price but was delicious.

The service was excellent and the waitresses were all extremely attentive. Even a member of the kitchen staff came out to ask how our meal was. Lovely cosy atmosphere and very clean. The only thing we were not keen on was the booth seating as it is very cramped to get in and out and the table was very close . Would much prefer to have a table with chairs to be able to sit at a comfortable distance from the table.

Excellent food friendly service. , arrived early but wasn't a problem Good value for money and a good choice of meals burgers, salads and variety of main courses and starters. Dessert menu a little dissapointing as usual offerings that you seem to get everywhere. Nothing out of the ordinary which was a shame as it didn't reflect the great choice on the main menus. Only had two courses because of that but to be fair two courses was enough for lunch anyway

Great food, freshly prepared and cooked to perfection. Service with both a smile and a chat and nothing too much trouble. But most importantly, well kept beer brewed at Robinson's Brewery, proud sponsors of Stockport County

This was our first visit to the restaurant and we thoroughly enjoyed our experience. The food was lovely, piping hot and very tasty indeed. We particularly liked the scallops starter and the linguine, which was quite spicy so probably no need for my son to have asked for extra chilli !

Good service which is lacking in so many establishments these days! Food which is always cooked well and presented the way in which it should be. But above all, a great selection of Robinson's beers, brewed in Stockport, the home of Stockport County.

Excellent food, well presented and the staff were friendly and helpful. It looks recently renovated and very smart. Our only issue was that it was a little too cold in there and could do with turning the heating up a bit
