In the heart of Knutsford, where the cobbled streets wind,

Lies a haven for beer lovers, a place of a different kind.

Dexter & Jones, they call it, a craft beer delight,

Where hops and barley dance, under the warm pub light.

The shelves are adorned with bottles, each one a story to tell,

From IPAs that sing of pine forests, to stouts as dark as a well.

Six hundred flavours beckon, a kaleidoscope of brews,

And the bartenders, like alchemists, pour magic into their cues.

"Give me a pale ale," you say, and they nod with a grin,

As they pull the tap handle, the golden liquid begins.

The glass fills with effervescence, a symphony of bubbles,

And you raise it to your lips as the world outside troubles.

Dexter & Jones, where beer is an art form, a canvas of taste,

Where the amber hues swirl and the aromas interlace.

Sip by sip, you explore, from lagers to sours so tart,

And the camaraderie grows as conversations start.

And what of Jones, you wonder, the other half of the pair?

Ah, he's the gin whisperer, with juniper dreams to share.

His shelves hold botanical secrets in elegant glass flasks,

And the tonic waters fizz, as the evening gently asks.

So here's to Dexter & Jones, where beer and gin unite,

Where laughter echoes freely, and the hours take flight.

In this cosy corner of Cheshire, where stories unfold,

May your glass never empty, and your memories be gold.

Fox and Hounds at Sproston

In the heart of Sproston, where the meadows bloom,

The Fox and Hounds awaits, a cozy room.

As daylight wanes and shadows stretch long,

We gather 'round tables, where stories belong.

The air is crisp, with a hint of dew,

And the scent of promise lingers, anew.

A spring evening unfolds, like petals unfurl,

As we step into a world of flavors and swirl.

The menu whispers secrets—starters galore,

From crispy calamari to goat cheese encore.

I chose the wild mushroom bruschetta, divine,

Each bite a symphony, a prelude to wine.

The fox prowls the kitchen, orchestrating the feast,

His hounds—ingredients—dance to the beat.

Lamb shank confit, tender as twilight's kiss,

And sea bass, seared golden, a savory bliss.

The garden peas pirouette, mint leaves in tow,

While roasted potatoes waltz, their skins all aglow.

The sauce, a crescendo, rich and harmonious,

We savor each note, our taste buds victorious.

Dessert arrives, a sweet serenade,

Chocolate fondant erupts, a molten cascade.

Vanilla bean ice cream pirouettes on the plate,

And berries twirl, their vibrant hues celebrate.

Yummy, indeed! We linger, enchanted by the night,

As stars peek through windows, casting soft light.

The Fox and Hounds, a haven of culinary delight,

Where memories are etched, and hearts take flight.

So raise your glass, dear friends, to this springtime affair,

At the Fox and Hounds, where magic fills the air.

For in shared meals and laughter, we find our grace,

And the fox and hounds dance on, in this timeless space.
