The Grill on the Hill & Secret Garden Dining & Drinking
A fantastic selection of dishes & drinks available, inside and out. Our main menu is served all day and has a great selection of sumptuous starters & snacks, mouth-watering mains, our feature house speciality steaks cooked on the flaming Josper grill and of course, an indulgent choice of delicious desserts.
Monday to Thursday we also have our Fixed Price set menu, and our all day Sunday Roasts with speciality sharing roast platters are a firm favourite locally.
For drinks, relax in our contemporary bar or weather permitting, take a stroll out to the secret garden and watch the sun go down on the terrace seating with heating.
Inside or out… a hidden gem just up the hill from the vibrant village of Alderley edge and the equally beautiful countryside of Cheshire.
