GASTRONOMY REVIEW: The Hanging Gate Pub Restaurant - Weaverham, Northwich.


On the way home from seeing a pantomime in Northwich, and in need of sustainance, this was the first establishment we ventured upon, and it was indeed, a veritably good find.

Situated in the village of Weaverham, just a little north of the town of Northwich, this classic pub / restaurant had a very homely, relaxed, but slightly up-market feel to it. My companion and I settled down to table service, and traditional (and some usual but non-traditional) excellently presented pub food. 

The whitebait was superb, cooked to perfection; whilst a steak and ale pie was crammed with juicy choice chunks of meat, and a thick grazy. The Hunter's Chicken was also perfectly cooked and tasty. Twice-cooked chips or sweet potato chips as well as vegetables were served with both; and we guzzled these down with a steaming hot pot of English tea. 

Extremely affordable, polite and friendly staff (not overfussy), and the place was spotlessly clean. What more could one ask for? If we are in the area again, then we'll certainly be making a beeline here for our meal.
