So glad this place has re-opened and is so very busy and well-run.The staff are friendly and enthusiastic and the food is excellent, the roast beef was pink and cooked to perfection.Lovely outdoor area too.

Local cask ales, fresh local produce, pub classics, sandwiches, set menus and an ever evolving A La Carte menu. Dogs welcome. Bookings strongly advised on Sunday to avoid dissapointment.
I have been to the Wizard many times over the years. We had a day off and the weather was horrendous so we though we would go to the pub for lunch. First off, there is a sign to say wait here for a table but it is in a place where no one can actually see you are waiting. Then we were eventually seated and it was quite some time before someone even brought the menus. The service was terribly slow. When we had finally managed to order it took another 45 minutes for our burgers to show up. The food was good with nice chips and generally the flavour of the burger was fine. However, as a lot of pubs seem to do with burgers now, the burger was so enormously stacked that there is no possible way to eat it as a burger and you had to cut bits off with a knife and fork so you couldn't get the flavour of the cheese, brisket, burger and sauce in one mouthful. It was a shame because I think it would have been very good had it not been 9 inches in height and there wasn't really room on the plate to easily cut a burger into pieces . The man at the bar asked if everything was OK and my husband told him that the burgers were too stacked to eat as a burger. His response was that he wouldn't accept our feedback as this was not constructive criticism and that, yes, people eat burgers with their hands in McDonald's but in restaurants everybody eats burgers with a knife and fork. I am quite surprised by this point of view as really burgers are hot sandwiches and you wouldn't get a sandwich and eat the filling separate from bread with a knife and fork. I don't think I have seen someone order a burger in a restaurant and start eating it with a knife and fork. I am going to go out on a limb and say that most people would pick it up and eat it with their hands. I found him very rude as it suggested he had made a judgement of what sort of people we are and it ruined our trip out on what was already a washout of a day off, just because we thought the burger would have been nicer to eat if it was a third of the height. I am not going to go back to this pub.Firstly let me say we take all comments and feedback seriously at the Wizard. Regarding waiting times I find it hard to believe you waited 45 minutes for a burger?? I remember your table and Iâm positive you ordered starters ? If Iâm incorrect did you book ? We did have a lot of walkins that afternoon and it was all between 1pm and 2pm. Sometimes the kitchen just can not cope if everyone orders together. All our food is freshly made to order and a microwave is not used. Regarding the actual âcomplaint â I was a little confused about what you were complaining about. You said the food was very tasty, and you enjoyed it ??? Iâm going to go out on a limb and say surly thats job done on our front but you went on to say your experience was ruined because you couldnât eat your burger with your hands. I just found the complaint a bit bizarre.My comment about McDonaldâs was my attempt to inject a little humour into the situation and was not in any shape or form a judgement of the sort of people you are. We service hundreds of customers each week from all different parts of the country and everyone is welcome. Obviously itâs your right to make any comment you wish, and on this occasion I felt it was my right to give my opinion as well, and for that reason you have deemed me rude. We do hope you visit again soon

The Merlin Inn is a stylish, contemporary pub, bar and restaurant serving delicious pub food as well as a fine selection of drinks in great surroundings. Our unique dining space is perfectly equipped to accommodate parties of all sizes, from romantic meal
Arrived on saturday afternoon, some sort of drinks function with around 30 guests was happening. Went to the bar to get seated, but there was a group of people stood in the way who obviously hadnt been taught basic manners, ie, get your drinks and then get out the way so other people can order. barstaff told us to get some menus off a sideboard then head to the restaurant. Not very welcoming. A waitress appeared eventually and seated us. Ordered drinks, g+t for her and a lemonade. My lemonade was just soda water, their postmix had run out but not been changed. Ordered a garlic pizza bread to share and a dirty burger and a wagyu burger.The bar guy appeared with our starter and I took the opportunity to have my lemonade replaced for an actual lemonade. The garlic pizza was dry, had parmesan shavings on it and undressed, limp rocket leaves scattered about...obviously i had no drink to wash it down yet until we'd almost finished the bread. Also came uncut with a blunt pizza cutter, really do not want to be carving my own pizza at the table unless you're going to give me a chopping board and a big knife. When you serve bread it's customary to serve it with a fat, such as butter. so it slides down your throat easier. A little pot of balsamic and oil or chilli oil or anything would have gone down a treat. But it didnt. Our mains came, i had the wagyu, which was overcooked, dry and tasteless, she had the dirty burger which was actually really good. Chips were average. My garlic prawns were weird, had a strange texture, just fell apart in the mouth. I'd hazard they were old, or had been defrosted rapidly. the garlic butter was slimy and gloopy, so i sent them back. waitress was very inexperienced and absent a lot. difficult to get hold of her for anything. I wish id ordered the dirty burger as it was so much better than the wagyu burger. The manager comped the prawns and £10 from our bill, which was very generous, I'd have paid for the burger since I ate it all.So in summary I had a very mediocre meal and The Mrs had a lovely meal. If I go back, which I may well do, I'll choose the dirty burger. Dont bother with the wagyu tbh. Hi robertsC95114BL,Thank you for you feedback, thaere are certainly points in your review that we will be able to work on.

We went along to The De Trafford for a family Sunday Dinner and (once again) we were not disappointed.From the moment we arrived we were treated like old friends by the wonderful, attentive Helen and her team. Nothing was too much trouble and her recommendations and helpful suggestions were gratefully received.The food was expertly prepared and presented and was excellent value for money, Amusing to reflect on the fact that, along the road in Alderley Edge, there will be inferior food presented at vastly superior prices.Very impressed with the whole experience and we'll be back very soon.Thanks Helen and everyone else at The De Trafford Arms - Keep up the excellent work!Five stars! Wow, thank you! Lovely to read your comments about your experience, I'll make sure to pass them on to the rest of the team.

When you're meeting after work on a Monday, Revolution definitely is the place to go.There's a good choice of tables, including booths and we sat away from the crowd in a room at the back of the restaurant. Comfy chairs, pleasant atmosphere.Half price on most of the menu and we both had fish and chips. Mine was fine, I thought the fish was good although the batter wasn't crispy, not really an issue for me.My friend really didn't enjoy his at all. Worst he'd had, tasteless fish he said. Tbh his didn't look as good as mine!Anyway this is my opinion so 4 circles.Hi RazzyBthefirst.We're happy to hear that you enjoyed your visit to Revolution! Excellent choice with the fish and chips, it is a guest favorite and mine too! We're sorry to hear that your friend didn't enjoy their meal, we will definitely be looking into this.Did you know it's not only Monday's that we have great deals, if you download the Revs App you can get deals all throughout the week too!!Many Thanks.Luke Jordan.Trainee Assistant Manager.

Went here for lunch during the week - staff quick and friendly, food was excellent. Freshly cooked calamari with a sweet chilli and yoghurt dip and them a hanging chicken kebab with lots of garlic butter - made me smell a bit antisocial but worth it! Hi 937gilesl, Thanks for your fantastic review! We are so pleased to hear you enjoyed your visit! We hope to see you soon. ThanksMike- General Manager

Our friends,suggested to eat here.We all had the Monday night,steak deal.Unfortunately,my friend was given the wrongly,cooked steak,which was taken back and another one,was sent,15 minutes later,with their apologies but they did not offer anything else.The good was ok but my husband,did not have any sauce and his was bland,just steak and chips.We could have had vegetables but it would have cost us more!A but noisy,with a few tipsy people,talking very loudly!Probably wouldn't go back.

An ideal spot for drinking, dining and relaxing Suburban Green is a unique place with a carefully crafted seasonal menu, quirky cocktails, craft beers and fine wines that simply make it too easy to stay all day. Events space, meetings & networking events,
I can not get enough of this restaurant. The food is lovely, the service is impeccable and the atmosphere is excellent. Wilmslow is incredibly lucky to have a restaurant serving food at this quality at this price. Everything is incredibly tasty and fromMy experience no dishes disappointed. I loved the lamb and the chicken thighs. The eclectic menu choice offered us a dinning experience that Iâd never have the time to replicate or execute at home and thatâs what I want from a restaurant. I canât recommend highly enough. Thank you to the staff

We are delighted to have opened our first pub in the North West and what better location than stunning Alderley Edge. We have lovingly restored and renovated the building to highlight original features and create a warm welcoming bar, a beautiful dining r
We visited about 7pm on a Sunday evening and had a wonderful meal. The mussels and beef bourginon that I had and the cheese soufflé and duck my husband had was all fabulous. The service was great and the team even put the radiator on for me when I requested it as I hadnât dressed in a jumper (despite knowing better!) Always lovely and a great place. Highly recommended. Thank you Alison for the lovely review! It is most appreciated!We look forward to seeing you soon to enjoy our warming Autumn Menu!
