The Travellers Rest - Ellesmere Port

Excellent lovely pub very clean good atmosphere nice clean toilets. Lovely outside sitting area staff very friendly

I went to this restaurant for a drink with friends, and to put it bluntly, it was a bad experience. The staff was extremely rude, the drinks were overpriced, and I felt uncomfortable sitting down because it seemed like people were constantly watching one of the many TVs mounted above the seats.

Popped in on our way back to our hotel we could have sat outside in the beer garden but it was a bit smokey. Went inside 3 or 4 different rooms to choose from. The main room/bar had a live DJ which was quite loud so we went into one of the side rooms to chat. Comfy chairs and we could hear the music at a comfortable level. Quite busy but plenty of seating. Drinks were a reasonable price and the usual choice.

We sat outside and enjoyed a pint on a beautiful day. The restaurant had plenty of outdoor seating, but overall the experience was mediocre and we likely won't be returning.

We arrived at this restaurant around 1:40 PM only to find the doors closed. We returned later in the afternoon and found the doors open. The bartender was still wearing his coat, which made sense once we sat down and realized it was freezing cold inside. There was no heating in the pub at all. We quickly finished our drinks and decided to leave.
