The Huntsman - Menu

Turned up to a quiet night at the pub with a couple of friends. Left in a terrible mood having waited in excess of an hour and a half to cook 3 pizzas and still didn't get them! No warning of a long wait. Staff are just accepting of this abysmal performance. If you want feeding avoid this place.

The huntsman had a very warm welcome from locals, management, bar staff and especially Reggie (their dog) Undoubtedly the best pizza I’ve had in years and freshly cooked in front of the cozy open fire. We will be planning on returning to the huntsman next time we visit Cheadle from Bristol. Keep up the good work guys, second to none.

A very warm welcome from the huntsman team on arrival. Room was nice and clean bathroom requires updating. The bed was super comfortable.. tea coffee with chocolate bars that was a fab treat. Breakfast made fresh by the landlord was excellent the bacon and eggs were delicious.. fresh cut bread world class ! The bar area is well managed and I tried some of their fabulous bitters that were delicious. Highly recommend.. look forward in returning shortly. View menu

Checked out the website before going and booked a table based on what we believed to be the menu. When we arrived there was no greeting or acknowledgement from staff the eating area itself is what can only be described as a large shed with wooden tables and benches and the only food they serve is pizza!! Asked about the website only to be told they have been locked out of their own website ??? Extremely disappointed so we left and went elsewhere, advice is don't go.

Stayed here for one night and what a very dirty, unacceptable place to advertise as a hotel The room was filthy, the shower mouldy, the facilities were generally awful and the food if you want to eat is either a pizza, a pizza or try a pizza……that’s it The bed was from the 60’s the bedding smelled of pipe tobacco and the towels were like sand paper. Overall I would advise you stay clear if you want a restful nights sleep with some food. My god this will be etched in my mind for the rest of my life

We ate here yesterday upon leaving Alton Towers. We were saw The Huntsman en route back home. When we’re surprised when it was only pizza and sides on offer as we were expecting ‘pub grub’ but we were hungry and all ordered pizza and some sides. The food was made in a pizza oven in the area where we were sat and when the food arrived we were so pleased that we had decided to stay, it was all lovely! In fact my 17 year old said that ‘it was the best pizza she’s ever eaten’ and she’s eaten a lot of pizza! I can highly recommend the food here and all the staff were friendly and helpful. View menu

We visited on a Friday lunchtime and it was very quiet with just one other table eating. We had the Mexicano flatbreads and chilli cheese fries to share. The flatbreads were delicious, top quality, filled us up and were very similar to the pizzas but nearly half the price!!! The wood-fired oven cooked pizzas and flatbreads are totally authentic. As it was quiet we got our food in a timely manner but the cooking time takes a little while. However, the resulting food is worth the wait!! On a busy day for food the wait for pizzas I imagine could be atleast 45 minutes or even an hour or more!! Service was good. We will be back next time for our pizza and flatbread fix!!!

A group of 9 of us visited The Huntsman on our way home from Alton Towers, we needed somewhere to stop to have lunch and stumbled across this gem. As soon as we walked in the staff were very accommodating, by moving 2 tables together so we could all sit as 1 big group. The kids loved the dog that lived on the property. The food was to die for and such a good deal. We had the beef roast dinners with dessert and the kids enjoyed the home made pizzas. The flavour in all the food was second to none and we could take the left over pizza home with us in a box to enjoy later on. They even went out of their way to make a different gravy for my husband who was allergic to the red wine gravy which was...

We’d spent the day at Alton Towers but as it was closing time and we didn’t want to eat there we stopped en route home. The Huntsman was one of the first pubs we came to and it looked nice so we stopped. Little did we know we were about to be blown away by the most amazing pizzas ever! I’m well travelled and have even eaten pizza in Italy, at the origin of pizza. Also in the USA. And most of Europe and Canada. But this was something else. The flavours were different but so right, the base was fluffy but thick and well cooked, the sides were also plentiful and cooked to perfection. We had a pepperoni, and a Brie, olive and jam pizza with chips and onion rings. I’m so glad we came here. Settin... View menu
