Nestled in the ‘Golden Triangle’ in Cheshire, the Legh Arms is a beautiful 16th Century Village Inn. The pub re-opened in December 2019 following a £1million investment in order to magnificently, yet sympathetically restore this historic building back to its former glory. Boasting 12 en-suite letting bedrooms we take pride in serving locally sourced, fresh food, all washed down with an amazing pint of Robinsons award winning ales.

The ideal Head Chef will have significant experience in a high-volume food-led traditional inn and is confident with the management and development of a large team, and a sound knowledge of tailoring and positioning offers to meet the needs of a wide range of customer groups.
