A warm potteries welcome awaits for all at one of Stoke's newest and already leading restaurant experiences.

The venue, a former Methodist Church boasting stained glass windows, an exposed vaulted beamed ceiling and an open kitchen housed in the former pulpit provides a wow factor for all visitors.

The owner, Diane, makes no apology for calling it an English restaurant as that is exactly what it is; the finest local produce prepared simply and served with panache and lots of theatre.

The Church offers a variety of contrast unique to Stoke-on-Trent and the broader Staffordshire area for the overall experience it provides.

First class English restaurant at affordable prices The food and service are indeed first class, yet this is not reflected in the price as Diane wanted to offer high quality food and service in awesome surroundings at very affordable prices. With a full a la carte menu starting at £10.95 per head, with reductions for children, better value would be hard to find.

A fine City Centre English restaurant offering more than just food The unique former church environment adds to the theatre of the visit.

The tastefully created bar lounge offers a relaxed area to take drinks both pre and post dining and a warm welcome is extended to those who just want to take a relaxed informal drink.

Live entertainment is provided by jazz musicians throughout the year for special occasions and a regular feature of a Friday and Saturday night is the disco music played until late in the lounge bar.

A great night out in Stoke-on-Trent city centre in one of the most unique English restaurant venues.
