Two brilliant evening visits in the last couple of months. First was as a large group and second just my husband and I. Both times the service was friendly and attentive, menu varied without being too large and food really well executed. Can’t wait to go back again!

Came for dinner on Saturday evening after reading the great reviews and on the whole it didn’t disappoint The food was really nice . Staff very attentive but the restaurant was so bloody cold. I really don’t was to eat dinner with my coat on ( and I wasn’t the only one) my feet were like blocks of ice! Please put the heating on! Would definitely go back when the weather warms up!

Popped in today to get a bacon sandwich takeaway. I got two slices of overly toasted bread and inside was some over cooked bacon. I asked for a little mayonnaise but they didn't bother. It was so dry. like putting 5 cream crackers in your mouth dry. It's hard to mess up a bacon sandwich but they managed that perfectly

Visited family in Chester and stayed at Fifteens over the road. Had a beautiful breakfast and lovely Americano coffee at Atina Kitchen which a work colleague had recommended. Staff were really friendly and the service was great. We sat outside in The Courtyward as it was jam packed inside but the heaters and blankets were available to ensure we were not cold. Would definitely recommend and will hopefully visit again in the future.

Another lovely meal ..... the chicken wings were even better than I remembered, and the meatballs were lush. My friends loved the turkey burger. GUTTED Lasagne was off the menu, though! Baileys hot chocolate was perfect and just the job. Great service as always, great price and I will be back again very soon.

Lovely little restaurant with friendly staff, great service and good food. We went for dinner as part of a little pre Christmas trip to Chester. The small plates were delightful. We had the focaccia, meatball and fried lasagna. Every item was lovely… and I’ve definitely been inspired to deep fry my lasagna in future! We had the onglet, bhaji burger and broccoli tagliatelle for mains. The onglet was delightful, but I didn’t regret my choice (the tagliatelle). The mango ketchup that came with the bhaji burger was too sweet for us, but I’m sure it would have suit those who have a sweeter palate. If we had extra stomach space, I would have loved to try the lasagna (because the fried version was so nice!) Nothing wrong with the dessert per se, but they were the weakest course… which was a little odd. The chocolate crème brûlée was fine but nothing to write home about … while the sticky toffee pudding was not the right texture for me. The coffees were delightful though!! Overall, this was a good find! I’d love to go back during the day and try their brunch - the Malaysian in me is intrigued by the chai tow kway & paratha (the description is that for chai tow kway so not sure where the paratha comes in, but I wanna try it!!)

The food was fabulous as always and the staff friendly and helpful. I have visited cafe Atina a multitude of times and will keep on doing so.

Visited twice during our weekend in Chester as our hotel was round the corner. Our first visit was for a drink which we enjoyed in their secret garden which is at the rear and so is nice and quiet as away from the bustling street. There’s a good choice of wine by the glass. We then returned for breakfast. The staff were lovely on both occasions, we felt welcomed and looked after. The choice for breakfast is great with lots of variety. We really enjoyed our breakfasts and cleared our plates. The coffee was good but the loose leaf breakfast tea was a little weak for my taste. Would definitely recommend.

Service is very poor and the staff is not very friendly. Very inattentive and barely pays attention to the customers. I had to stand up twice the first time asking for water at the bar while the 2 members of the staff where chatting and the second time I had to get up and go to the bar again and ask for to pay the bill, one of the waitresses didn’t even say thank when I paid. I normally leave good tips but on this occasion I didn’t as the service was poor and the experience wasn’t please like the previous times I have been eaten in that restaurant. I definitely won’t be back again.

Fantastic food! I think this is the first 5 star review I have written. Atina is essentially a 'sleeper'. It looks like a lovely little coffee shop for all intents and purposes. However, there's a proper chef lurking in their kitchen. The menu is reassuringly small and unique. Everything that my group and I ate on two separate occasions was freshly prepared and used good quality ingredients. Most importantly, the food was delicious! The restaurant is bigger than it looks. It has seating in the back and also in a courtyard. Really can't say enough good about this place.
