the Wickstead Arms

Consistently super food and very reasonable. Staff and customers welcoming. Bit noisy when Man U are playing but understandable as the majority are Man U fans. Décor not too great but the food overcomes this.

I wasn’t too keen. Whilst the beer was OK, Abbot or Spitfire, (2 similar ales), at £2.60 a pint, there was a rowdy bunch in the bar, as there is a huge football screen, and it was full of rather chavvy young men cheering on Man Utd.
Lounge was quieter, and there was footie on the 2 tellies in there too, via an Albanian TV provider.

I arrived in a small group to the town of Nantwich recently, on a reconnaissance mission to scout the location of our triathlon the next morning.
We got hungry, weary and a tad thirsty so in our search for a place of refuge, we stumbled upon this venue.
Very quaint interior — including bad 60’s carpets — were not enough to distract us from the very cheap and superb meals: I ordered a garlic mushrooms on croute starter, followed by a mix grill mains with a jam sponge and custard dessert.
All of it just creeping over the £10 mark. Bargain.
The food really is very good quality.
We ended up spending several hours drinking and eating in here; absorbed into the ethos of this place — welcoming strangers through its doors and giving them a hospitable environment to relax and chatter.
Service was swift and co-​operative. The bar maids were pretty and most people in here were friendly and talkative.
