Knutsford
About the restaurant
Situated in the heart of Cheshire and boasting the stunning Tatton Park on it’s doorstep, historic Knutsford is undisputedly one of Cheshire’s prettiest villages. Knutsford’s is an intriguing mix of past and present: think cutting-edge businesses housed within listed buildings, and high-end interior designers next to cosy tearooms. Knutsford is a town of contrasts, which is why it’s the ideal location for Piccolino. Piccolino’s ethos has always been to mix classic with contemporary to create something that truly is the best of both- that’s why Piccolino’s menu offers an array of Italian classics with a distinctly modern twist.
Piccolino, an authentic Italian Restaurant, is a proud fixture of the Knutsford dining scene. Ideally situated in a central village location on High Street, Piccolino in Knutsford boasts an open kitchen, second floor bar area and a substantial rooftop terrace featuring a fully retractable roof, for the ultimate alfresco experience rain or shine!

Stockton Heath is home to great pubs, bars, and independent shops. It was also the first village in the UK to be awarded a Purple Flag award to highlight its excellent hospitality standards in bars, pubs and restaurants. So it stands to reason that Stockton Heath is home to one of the area’s best Italian restaurants, Piccolino.

About the restaurant
K2H Creative Indian Kitchen
Back in 2016 our founder Nagendra had the vision to create an Indian dining experience like no other in the region.

Based on the home cooked dishes that he grew up enjoying in Northern India he wanted to introduce real Indian dishes. You may not recognise some of the names as we bring you true Indian cuisine to tantalise your tastebuds.

We aim to provide our customers with the very best of Indian food and service. The restaurant stays true to its Indian heritage with traditional cooking methods, top quality fresh ingredients and elegant service. Our Chefs prepare a special mix of dry whole spices for different dishes by grinding them in-house in your local kitchen. With many years of training and experience in five-star hotels in India and with International exposure, they are well equipped with the knowledge and art of balancing flavours and extracting natural colours from ingredients whilst cooking a distinct ‘gravy’ for each dish on the menu.

About the restaurant
AA 2 Rosette restaurant. The Forge Restaurant in Chester is one of Chester’s best restaurants with delicious food and unrivalled service. With a passion for wild, sustainable British ingredients, and a love of simple cooking over fire and charcoal. The Forge has its kitchen front and centre in the middle of this lovely, and elegant space. Incredible dry-aged beef and wild venison will be found in the maturation cabinets, awaiting their turn on the amazing forge grill, to be lovingly grilled and roasted over beech logs. Head chef Dan Regan, a passionate chef, heads up the young, vibrant team in the kitchen. Combining amazing, wild, sustainable ingredients from land and sea into sumptuous creations that form really memorable eating experiences. We focus on British ingredients, as local to Chester. Our venison, always a hugely popular part of our menus, is harvested from herds on estates that focus on improving biodiversity and deer health – a process we call Farming the Wild.
