About Us

Welcome to our picturesque country pub and restaurant in the hamlet of Smallwood. At the Legs of Man, we’re committed to keeping old school traditions alive. We’re a family run business serving great food, that stands the test of time. We believe there is something special in the little touches, that have gradually disappeared from dining out experiences. We’re here to keep them alive!

A little more about us

The first licence on this site can be traced back to the late 1400's. The present building was erected in 1939, originally thatched a fire in 1956 when a spark from the chimney ignited the thatching led to a new tiled roof being put in its place. As well as serving great hearty fayre, we have an expansive garden perfect for the summer months and a large car park too. We offer a large bar food menu in addition to the A La Carte served in the oak panelled restaurant. Our chefs are renowned for their creative wholesome, homemade dishes and the specials board allows them to express their creativity. If you’re looking for a place to stop as you’re journeying on the M6, check out the Legs of Man. Sitting on the borders of rural Cheshire & Staffordshire, the pub is close to junction 17 on the M6. Our warm & charming atmosphere will instantly relax you. We pride ourselves on having a lot of regular diners and referrals.
