About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Romantic
  • Good for groups
Based in the quaint village of Culcheth in the heart of Cheshire, The Pit Smokehouse stands out like an ostrich in a chicken farm.
Amongst the churches and rolling fields, with endless heards of sheep, stands a building which looks and feels like it has come straight out of Texas. Along with the food inside, you wont find meat and tastes like this outside the USA.
You can accompany the great flavours of our meat by guzzling down a few of our American beers or cocktails. However do be warned, the people of Culcheth will be out in force with pitchforks and flaming torches at the slightest bit of disturbance in their tranquil village.

    Had heard rave reviews over the years and never came - but I must be late to the party as I wasn't impressed. The food was average and quite expensive for what it was, the service was ok at first, then was slow when we were looking to pay. Didn't get dessert as we thought we would be waiting too long. Probably wont return

    This was the third time we have been I must say I was disappointed it seems to have gone down a steep hill. The tables were sticky prices are ridiculous my burger was dry but the friendliness was really good with us from all members of staff

    Considering the restaurant wasn't that busy as it was a Thursday evening, the service was pretty poor and unfriendly. Beer of choice not available. Starters were nice and good portion sizes; onion bomb, nachos, texas toast. But it would have been nice to be advised how large the portions of Texas Toast were, as we wouldn't have ordered 2 portions. We then spent 20-25 mins waiting for our starters to be cleared away, however the mains did follow quite soon afterwards, but by that time we were no longer hungry. The beef brisket, fatty and not worth the price, one of the burgers wasn't very warm and they had added some herby seasoning to the fries which we weren't sure about. Also one of the sides we ordered did not arrive although it was still on the bill later. We have now been twice but will not be returning a third time.

    Food is ok but would is a little monotonous and stodgy without vegetables. Service was very disappointing; we were brought the wrong beer but the bar refused to change it. Nobody checked if our food was ok once received, and we had to wait an age to get the bill.

    Food was great, although the service let this place down. We had to ask on more than one occasion for additional drinks and for the bill. Eventually having to go to the bar in the way out to pay as the waiter seemed to get distracted whenever he left our table, we had asked for the bill twice and the card machine 3 times before eventually paying in our way out.
