Assessors highlighted its stunning position and well presented exterior, in addition to the menu which boasts dishes including local Delamere asparagus, vine tomato and red onion tart with baked goats cheese and raspberry brulee with shortbread.
The three restaurants, owned by the family-run company Nelson (North West) Hotels, were visited anonymously by Taste Cheshire assessors.
Harold Nelson, director of Nelson (North West) Hotels, said: “These ratings are testament to the hard work of our team. I am pleased the assessors have recognised the efforts we make in providing outstanding hospitality across all of our venues.”
Each restaurant was judged on the quality of the exterior and interior, cleanliness, service, the quality of the food and the use of locally sourced produce from Cheshire and the North West.
The Taste Cheshire quality assessment scheme is owned by Visit Britain and operated by Quality in Tourism, Visit Britain’s assessing body.
