Atmosphere is 5 because it's an older building next to a castle, but still feels warm and inviting. Service was very friendly and accommodating. The rooms have all the basics covered, bathroom, TV, well heated. Beds were comfortable, curtains blocked out light. You get a kettle with supplies for tea and coffee as well. The breakfast that comes with was nice as well. Similar in that it's nothing too special but it just has everything covered generally. We also tried the dinner menu and agreed that it was all fine if a little more expensive than we were expecting. They have good allergy and dietary coverage.Good parking, all rooms are upstairs with no other way up if that's relevant.
Overall a lovely place to eat. The good was fantastic, fresh and tasted lovely. So I have given the service a 4 🌟 sadly....... The girls who were working when we arrived were brilliant, attentive and had a smile on there faces all the way through the service. What let them down was they didn't have enough staff who were knowledgeable on the menu, the bar and generally what was going on. They had a lack of menus and children's menus and a man who I assumed was on a day off was sat at the bar and felt the need to help the bar staff. Sadly you would have thought this was there first night of opening. It felt a bit chaotic. They had to keep running to the chef to check it was OK if someone had a question. Personally I think you need more staff for your bar and also a member of staff to be in the front introducing you overnight guests. You had the phone ringing and the girls were to run off there feet to answer it and a lady who was with the gent who helped with the bar answered it amd it was an overnight guest wanting to know when they could check in. I don't mean this to sound negative as I want it to be an opportunity to help your amazing staff out. Again the girls were brilliant who served us.
Ye Olde Boote Inn, a three-star establishment, is a short one-minute walk from Whittington Castle. This family-run inn set in a 16th-century coaching house is also seven miles from Chirk Castle. The six rooms are furnished in a classic style and feature en suite bathrooms and tea and coffee-making facilities. The restaurant features a plaid décor serving pub classics and modern global dishes, a cozy bar with dark wood furnishings, oak-beamed ceilings, cask ales, and malt whiskies. As a bonus, a full English breakfast is available.
Great pub, staff very friendly and food well cooked to order and delicious. The room was rather hot, due to unusually hot weather-room had been bathed in sunlight all day. It was aria noisy night as the room is in a busy road so with windows open it was worse than usual. The room was well appointed and a large bathroom.
where do I start......... super friendly staff where nothing is too much of a problem! the food; well OMG, my wife had Liver, mash and gravy (it took her back to childhood), my children had Gammon, egg and chips, what a healthy portion. I had the Pie chips and gravy, the Pie was like a door wedge, which fell apart in my mouth. We stayed over we stayed at the front of the pub, the room was quiet with comfortable beds. downstairs in the pub, lovely setting, I would love to return in the winter with the log fires on. cracking pint of Guinness with a good local community feel.
