Only second time I have written a review and it's going to be lengthy, bare with!. Since retiring a few years ago, once a week I take myself off somewhere, up to 100 miles, to somewhere I have not visited before and while Macclesfield is only 30 miles from my home, I have passed through but never stopped until today. ALWAYS I seek out what appears to be an above average restaurant, it's a treat, for light lunch and always have the same dish Eggs Benedict. ALWAYS the same dish. Even abroad I have the same lunch, in the Med they do it with fried Egg Plant, generally in this country it is with ham but my favourite is with smoked salmon, rare! So today I visited Prime Cut as it had my dish with Steak, never seen this before. Anyway, see the photo, I was amazed what was served, for £11.00. The eggs were cooked to perfection, the steak fell apart and the bonus was the side salad. This was by far the best I have ever experienced any where and combined with exceptional staff and great surroundings I cannot recommend this restaurant enough. I intend to travel in the evening for a visit just to try their steak meals. 10/10 Prime Cut, you deserve...
Read moreLovely staff and good service however the food was the main let down. We both ordered steak and had a few sides between us. Food was well presented but the steak didn't have much flavour, veg was really nice but the potatoes were really stale and just not nice. I ordered the banoffee pie for dessert and it wasn't nice at all. The Banana slices inside it were black. I am more than happy to pay the price tag for quality food but this was far from it. The food is well overpriced for what it is. The decor looks nice on the surface but look closer and it isn't clean. There was dead flies in the window ledge and a few big meat flies flying about inside. The only toilet is a combined unisex/disabled toilet (which as a woman I don't like) The toilet seat was covered in urine when I went in and the toilet seat was broken. The light also didn't work so I had to sort this out in almost darkness. As mentioned before the staff were all so nice, I didn't say anything for this reason and that I'm not really sure what they could do. This is my honest review, sadly based on this experience I wouldn't...
Read moreOverall a little disappointing. The atmosphere of the venue is warm & welcoming. The decor is great. The entertainment was pleasant if not a little loud. The food however is somewhat mediocre. My partner ordered the chilli & garlic linguine which was supposed to have both prawns & mussels. There were only prawns with not a single mussel in sight. The linguine was swimming in oil and the sauce (of which there was very little) was bland. A slight creamy taste managed to work its way through all the oil. I ordered the fillet steak, with sides of asparagus & dauphinoise potatoes. The asparagus was cooked to perfection, however, the steak was a little dry, not juicy and the potatoes were basically just sliced boiled potatoes, with minimal sauce, & I mean minimal. Tasteless and far from what you’d expect in a setting like this with not exactly low end prices. It will be my first...
