Driving past, on a Thursday Lunchtime, I noticed that the Egerton Arms large car park was nearly full. A sign outside proudly stated that the pub was now a Free House. After a brief visit to Chelford Farm Supplies, I stopped at the Egerton Arms on the way back to Knutsford. Inside it was a hive of activity - three people I see regulary in Knutsford were seated, chatting at the bar. Looking around, the chalk boards displayed specials of the day. Favourite was Coq au Vin, followed closely by Moules Frites. Traditional pie dishes and locally sourced sausages competed for your palate along with rack of lamb, served with new potatoes.

Outside at the back of the Egerton Arms there is a beer garden with large tables for families and raised decking areas with views over the fields. A grassed lawn is well kept and a large purpose built barbecue for an enthusiastic chef is used for weekend outdoor events when the weather allows.

Egerton Arms, Chelford.
