BEER gardens will be busy this weekend with the sun set to shine for the long bank holiday and customers enjoying an extra day off work.
But where would be a good place to go for a drink in the sunshine?
In our Best of 2022 campaign we searched to find Mid Cheshire's Best Beer Garden and The Carriers Inn at Hatchmere Lake took spot.
After reading through your nominations for the area's best places to enjoy a drink al fresco, we compiled a list of Mid Cheshire's top seven beer gardens and here they are.
OUR SEVEN BEST BEER GARDENS:
The Kings Lock, Booth Lane, Middlewich
With a “beer garden on the side of the canal in Middlewich”, what more could you ask for on a hot summer’s day?
Live music and cask ales served al fresco make this a popular destination for regulars.
