Dish and Drink of the Month



In a last salute to winter, our dish of the month is a hearty Ox Cheek Bourguignon, served with creamed potatoes and honey roasted vegetables.

This dish will feature on our specials board over the coming weeks.

Group Executive chef Paul Prescott comments;
"using the finest of Ridings Reserve beef results in really tender meat and is perfect in this classic red wine stew. Wonderful food that takes the chill off these early Spring days".

Last month we also launched a cocktail competition and we received numerous inventive recipes from all you budding mixologists!

We're delighted to reveal the winner is called 'Hugo' and comes from customer Aisla Rowlands.

A refreshing combination of Prosecco, fresh mint, elderflower cordial and fresh lime juice with a dash of sparkling water over ice.

The Fishpool Inn is a cosy, characterful inn dating back to the 18th century and impressively has recently been awarded a much sought after accolade of 'Best New Pub' in the UK. Idyllically positioned on the edge of the enchanting Delamere forest and amidst the stunning Cheshire countryside, The Fishpool is without doubt one of the county's most popular gastro inns.

A firm favourite at the Fishpool is the unrivalled home-made, hearty pies with their succulent tasty fillings wholly encased by delicious puff pastry.

At the Fishpool Inn you can experience a true taste of Cheshire where the old and the new fuse together seamlessly and traditional rustic charm perfectly marries contemporary class. Whether enjoying a tipple or two on the outdoor terrace with picturesque beer garden, perfect for al fresco dining during the warmer months, or a hearty meal by one of the cosy log fires come winter, all guests, including our canine friends, will experience a warm welcome and the highest of standards in unique yet ambient surroundings.
