About the restaurant
Nestled in the heart of Bollington, The Cock & Pheasant is a newly independent Pub with deep roots and a fresh spirit. We’re lovingly restoring this local landmark to offer a warm, welcoming space where tradition meets thoughtful hospitality. Expect classic pub fare done right—hand-pressed burgers made with meat from our local butchers, nostalgic puddings, and proper pies—not to mention our carefully curated selection of local cask ales.

Whether you’re just popping in for a pint, settling in for Sunday lunch, an evening with friends, or enjoying our beer garden & childrens play area with your family, you’ll find good beer, honest food, heartfelt service, and a genuine sense of belonging. No gimmicks, no frills—just a proper pub, reimagined for today.

Highly recommend this pub! The food was amazing, we went on a Sunday so we had a Roast - delicious! The pub was lovely inside but we sat outside as it was a sunny day. There’s a park outside for children close to the tables so you can keep an eye on them. The food is also really great value compared to a lot of places these days.

Chester
About the restaurant
Chester’s historic beauty and unique atmosphere make it one of the UK’s most popular places to visit. This ancient city is a must for history-lovers: walk the Roman walls following in the footsteps of Roman soldiers, and visit the largest Amphitheatre in Britain. It makes sense that with all that Roman history, Chester is also home to one of the area’s best Italian restaurants, Piccolino!
Piccolino, an authentic Italian Restaurant, is a proud fixture of the Chester dining scene. Located on Pepper Street, Piccolino in Chester boasts an open kitchen, cocktail bar, and wine boutique. Piccolino is also home to Chester’s very first Prosecco bar and alfresco terrace.
We visit the regions, meet the producers and are committed to sourcing the best quality ingredients. At Piccolino, passion for provenance is at the forefront of our menu, which incorporates the best and freshest seasonal produce, Italian cheeses, meat and seafood, all delivering pure classic Italian flavours.

The food was some of the best food I’d had in a while super tasty and really good portion size. I had the curry with beef brisket it was bursting with flavour and not too spicy. The service was prompt and staff were really friendly. Will be back for sure!

3 of us attended for a pre birthday lunch and sat inside the conservatory. We were served quickly and the staff members were lovely. Between us we had the soup, steak sandwich and beetroot and pepper burger. My friend who had the burger said it was the nicest veggie burger she’d ever had. The rest of our food was lovely and was part of a lunch time deal. We also had the hot drink and mini dessert and the jammie dodger ice cream sandwich was delicious. Friends had the lemon meringue and the brownie and they were both described as lovely. We will definitely return in the near future.
