A little more about us

Welcome to the Davenport Arms, known locally as the Thief's Neck. If you like sitting outdoors, we've got two great beer gardens. One infront of the pub to watch the world go by, or one to escape the world nestled in between our barns and open green space. The team also rents the rear space for those wanting small functions such as weddings, christenings and birthdays. So, whether to party or spend a relaxing afternoon with friends and children, The Davenport Arms makes the perfect venue. Historic information: One part of the famed Capesthorne Estate dates to the 18th Century, in which the Davenport family were the game wardens to the King's hunting preserves. As hereditary foresters of the King, the Davenports had the authorised power to put poachers to death without trial. Hence, the crest of the Davenport coat of arms originally was a serf's head with a rope around its neck, signifying that the Davenports had the power to hang without appeal to the King. This same crest can still be seen today from the pub's pictorial.

DINE WITH US

DINE WITH US

We believe in true hospitality here at the Davenport Arms. We want to welcome as many people as possible to our pub and don't take reservations. We want you to fancy coming along, and knowing you can get in. If we don't have a table in that moment, we'll welcome you in our bar area to relax with a drink whilst you wait. With fresh dishes and rotating menus we focus on quality in our cooking and ingredients. Our menu is everything you'd expect from a great country pub in Cheshire.
