Trust us; it’s the date night destination you never knew you needed!

Romantic Dining Experiences in the Heart of Congleton

Ah, Congleton—a charming little market town nestled in the heart of Cheshire. It’s got history, it’s got character, and most importantly, it’s got the Orange Tree Bar & Grill. With its cosy yet contemporary vibe, our restaurant is the perfect spot to kickstart your date night. Picture this: intimate lighting, beautiful décor, and a buzzing atmosphere that somehow makes you feel like you’re in your own little world. Sounds dreamy, right?

Sharing Is Caring: Small Plates Made for Two

The best part of any date night? The food, of course! And at Orange Tree Bar & Grill, we believe sharing is caring. Our small plates menu is perfect for couples looking to get a bit of everything. Why settle for one dish when you can have them all? Start with our Lemon Pepper Pork Scratchings with caramelised apple ketchup, a tantalising mix of flavours that will have you swooning (over the food, and maybe each other).

Feeling a bit cheesy? Our Deep Fried Mozzarella served with smoked barbeque sauce is sure to hit the spot. And if you’re in the mood for something a bit more adventurous, why not try our Crispy Bolognese Spring Roll with pesto mayo and Italian cheese sauce? It’s a date night winner! And let’s not forget the Sesame King Prawn Bao Buns—because what’s more romantic than sharing fluffy, steamy buns? You heard it here first; nothing says “I fancy you” quite like a bao bun.

A Main Menu to Remember

While sharing small plates is a fantastic way to bond, sometimes you just want a hearty meal all to yourself. Luckily, our main menu has something for everyone, whether you’re a steak lover, a burger enthusiast, or a fan of delicious vegetarian dishes. For those looking for a tasty veggie option, the Smoked Aubergine Parmo is a must-try. It’s served with rigatoni, Italian cheese, mozzarella, and a rich vodka tomato cream, making it a comforting and flavourful choice. If burgers are more your style, you can’t go wrong with our Black & Blue Burger. It comes loaded with a juicy chuck patty, blue cheese sauce, bacon, jalapeños, and all the fixings. It’s a flavour explosion that will make your taste buds dance with joy. And for those who prefer their meat with a side of classic, our steaks—like the 8oz Rib Eye or 10oz Sirloin—are seasoned and cooked to perfection.

Cocktails to Set the Mood

Now, let’s talk about drinks. Because what’s a romantic dinner without a cocktail or two? At the Orange Tree Bar & Grill, we’ve got a cocktail menu that’s sure to impress. Whether you’re in the mood for a refreshing Strawberry G&T, a bold Whiskey Ginger, or a classic Dark and Stormy, our mixologists have got you covered. With every sip, you’ll feel that warm, fuzzy feeling inside—though, we can’t guarantee it’s all due to the alcohol.

Something Sweet to End the Night

After indulging in delicious starters, a mouth-watering main course, and maybe a cocktail (or three), you’ll want to end your evening on a sweet note. Our dessert menu features everything from the comforting Sticky Toffee Pudding to the zesty Hot Bramley Apple Oaty Crumble. We know the way to the heart is through the stomach, and our desserts are the perfect end to a perfect date night.

Sunday Roasts and Strolls

Now, if your idea of great date night is more of a date day, make sure to join us for a Sunday roast. Nothing says ‘cosy and comforting’ like a traditional roast with all the trimmings. Our Roast Beef is a classic, but if you’re feeling a bit adventurous, the Panko Mushroom Kiev is a delicious vegetarian alternative.

To make your Sunday even better, why not take a stroll through Astbury Mere Country Park before or after your meal? Just a stone’s throw from Congleton, it’s the perfect spot to walk off those Yorkshire puddings and enjoy the beautiful Cheshire countryside.

Feast and Flow: The Perfect Saturday Plan

Planning a Saturday outing? Our Feast and Flow event from 12 pm to 4 pm every Saturday is ideal for those who enjoy a leisurely afternoon filled with good food and even better drinks. This includes three courses and bottomless drinks like Prosecco, Aperol Spritz, and more. It’s the perfect excuse to let your hair down and unwind.

At Orange Tree Bar & Grill, we take pride in creating a dining experience that’s more than just a meal. It’s an atmosphere.
