Perfect venue for a gathering! We had a wonderful party to celebrate our daughter’s 21st birthday in the Loft. The private room, with its own bar, was spacious enough for our family and friends to relax. The food was truly exceptional and went down a treat with all the guests (included lactose intolerant and vegan members). Thank you to the management and staff, including Howard and Alfie, were very friendly, completely reliable and especially accommodating. Wholeheartedly recommended!

I visit regularly and really enjoy the beer garden in the sun. Dined inside this time which is a lovely setting a very relaxed, bar was busy but service was good, really good selection of drinks (Including gluten-free options for some of our party). We all eaten, majority having the roast dinner, which is the best in Chester I'd say! Good portion size, lots of veg choice, well cooked meat. Keep up the good work :)

Haven't been here for about 20 years, which is a shame as I've been missing out on a fantastic place to eat and drink, it's absolutely amazing, there's a friendly atmosphere and chilled vibe, their outside space is chilled and comfortable and you can play Table Tennis and Füsball, not seen that in any bar recently, makes a refreshing change to just pool and darts. Highly recommended place. Absolutely will be back.

I ordered a drink for half the group and asked politely if my friend “could please go next” to which he rudely responded and serves the people behind us and stated “for that I’ll serve them”. I think this is rude and dismissive and I will not return here.

Upon entering with my friends we were having a good time playing table football, we got into a conversation with a pair of women, all was going well un till we’re were having a conversation about current affairs, I stated that my Christian views from the bible were no longer a part of the worlds views. We were instantly attacked by this women and told that Christian views are wrong. She then went to the staff and lied. Because of the fact that the women and the staff have a relationship we were surrounded by staff and told to leave told that our religion is irrelevant and wrong and that we had to leave. We were surrounded and harassed by staff because we believe in god. We’re we’re belittled and offended. Unless you are radically left wing the staff will attempt to intimidate, harass, embarrass and belittle you. Do not attend unless you are either radical or sleeping with the staff. England has fallen.

Family and friends threw me a baby shower in July. We had the private space in the loft and it was the most gorgeous, quirky little setting. Plenty of space for everyone and the staff were incredible. We were very well looked after by Freya and Howard. Also the food was amazing! Chef had a vegetarian and someone with a nut allergy and couldn't have been more accommodating. Thoroughly recommend Commonhall whether it's a private function or just to pop in for food / drink 😊

We took our 3 month old Doberman, Bram into Chester for the first time. We were made to feel very welcome from the moment we entered the venue. The staff were genuinely warm and polite, making a fuss of Bram and providing excellent service. There were a few dogs enjoying a similar welcome, bowls of water and a free doggy dinner for every roast dinner ordered. We will certainly be back as frequent customers.

The great thing about Commonhall Social? Not many people know about Commonhall Social. It’s a hidden gem in the heart of the city that people who are regular to Chester often walk passed it without knowing. The atmosphere is chilled out and service is always quick at the bar, plus the staff are always upbeat and not miserable like in some other venues around the corner. Only downside I’ve experienced is the kitchen schedule can be hit & miss, aka they sometimes stop serving earlier then advertised which isn’t a big issue as it’s mostly snack stuff anyway but a nuisance if you’re peckish and happy to stick around for another round of drinks.

I rarely write reviews but think this place definitely deserves one, we have just been for our second visit 23/4/23 both times the staff have been amazing, the atmosphere of the place is really chill it sort of reminds me of the coffee shop from Friends, the food is on another level, we have just had the most amazing Sunday dinner thoroughly enjoyed by the whole family even the dog got her own dinner for free, we will definitely be back, it's so nice to find a place that doesn't feel an any way commercialised.

Visited at lunch time with my mum for a belated mothers day meal, we both had food which while somewhat expensive was well worth the price due to the quality and protion size of the meals.

Called in here with my cousin and asked if we could sit outside a lady said you can sit where you like. So we sat outside & waited for someone to bring a menu & no one did, so I went inside & asked and the bar person said you have to come to the bar - which we weren't told when we came in. I went back inside & asked if they could turn the music down as it was just fuzz & they turned it up! We sat there and no-one came out to us so we decided to leave. The barman was sitting having his lunch and my relative asked why no one came to take our order & was told it was bar service only, apart from 2 other people outside they could have made the effort. We do enjoy the food shame the staff aren't more attentive. I did email 1539 who own this establishment but not heard anything back/.

We visited Commonhall Street Social during our recent visit to Chester. The staff were great and the food was excellent with quite a few gluten free options. There is an outside terrace with good music and a friendly atmosphere. Inside was quieter because it was early in the evening, but if the terrace is anything to go by, it would be good to visit.

I quietly explain I was exempt and he said I’m not coming in!!!!! The gentleman wasn’t wearing a mask or lanyard!!!!!He then said he’d share the cctv to all chester pubs so I couldn’t get service anywhere. WOW. I’ll never visit again.

I came here with my dad for a quick drink after a meal out. We were ‘greeted’ (and I use that word strongly) by a very abrupt, condescending staff member. My 70 year old dad didn’t realise he had to wait at the door as it wasn’t clear due to a lack of signage or staff members present. The staff member then spotted us and he literally heckled my dad out and told him off for not checking in on the NHS app or having his mask on. Yes he did forget he didn’t have his mask on but he was barely in the premises and did not deserve to be spoken to in such a manner! The way that man spoke to my dad was absolutely disgusting. I was so shocked, I was lost for words and all I could do was walk away. I now wish I said something! You should be glad we chose you out of all the place in Chester to spend our hard earned money! I will NEVER come again!

It was my first visit to Commonhall St. Social and it is such a hidden gem! Really great atmosphere upstairs, great food and good drinks. What let it down were some of the staffs attitudes! On Friday night when we visited, a young girl was serving us and she was incredibly rude. Grunting at us when we didn’t order more drinks, and no customer service about her! Such a shame as that put a dampener on what was a great visit!

I have been to Commonhall many times over the years and was excited to return once restrictions allowed. Myself and a group of friends met there and sat outside. Admittedly, we were being a little 'loud' but apologised and calmed down once someone came to talk to us. About an hour later, we had ordered food, eaten and were having a catch up when a waiter came over and told us to leave. He accused us of throwing ice at other tables, said we had been 'warned' 3 times, was rude and dismissive. We were genuinely offended at the accusations, especially as he refused to discuss the matter. We asked to speak to a manager, he advised he was the manager (which turned out to be untrue), when the manager did come over he sat with us for 3 minutes before telling us 'he was done'. The waitress who took our payment was lovely and friendly, if only all the staff had the same attitude. I will be writing to head office and asking that they watch the CCTV.

We found this absolute gem on a sunny Saturday afternoon on a weekend visit with friends. A fab garden area has been really well laid out - it’s both funky and practical and the drinks are quirky but fantastic and not stupidly overpriced. We had food too and it was delicious - fresh, tasty and reasonable. What makes this place though is the staff. They are all super efficient, make time to chat and are wonderfully friendly. A definite must if you visit Chester!

A friend and I ran from Hoole to the Racecourse (Commo Pop Up) last week and finished with a couple of drinks and food - it was a lovely evening and we were very much hoping to repeat this last night. However on arrival to the racecourse we found out that it was closed ... now only open Friday - Sunday (It was posted on their Instagram however we only found this out after!). We then decided to wonder into town to the actual Commonhall Social... what a mistake that was.The staff member who showed us to our table also wasn't not aware that the pop up had closed. When seated at our table we were told someone would be over to take our drinks order.. 10 minutes went by and we had to call someone over to then have our drinks order taken in a very condescending manner and then it was another long wait before these drinks arrived. We also ordered some nibbles to the table which also took much longer to arrive than expected and part of the order was missing. It took 2 requests to get some small plates to eat our food off. By the time we had finished the food I had completely forgotten that we still had the remaining food order to come which my friend had to chase up again. It eventually arrived over 30 minutes after the other food had come to the table... by this point both we had long finished the first set of nibbles and both felt ready to leave having been there for 2 hours. I can only say that I am disappointed in myself for not complaining at the time and think I must have been in shock/disbelief that very little apology was given for such poor service!! A very disappointing visit all in all - which is sad because I actually enjoyed the gin and food but it all just took too long.

The location itself was lovely. The inside is quite dark which creates a cosy atmosphere and the outside bit was, except from the quite dirty pillows on the benches, very nice. This is why I did not give only 1 star.Right from the beginning the barman was really harsh. No smile, not a single nice word. He knew that the bar would close within the next 20 min (which we didn't know, because they decided to close earlier this night) and still let us pay the overprized beer-steins. Naturally, we didn't finish them within the time so when he came outside to tell us in a rude way that we have to go now, I asked whether we can have plastic cups so that we can take the beers with us. His only answer was:"No, you had one hour to finish, leave." -- Extremely rude, this is not how you keep new customers. As I said, lovely place, but we will not come back.

Fuimos a almorzar un sábado por la tarde porque era uno de los pocos lugares con mesas libres. Ambos obtuvimos el sándwich de filete de queso Philly y fue una de las peores cosas que me he metido en la boca. Me las arreglé para forzar la mitad porque pensé que solo había sido quisquilloso, pero luego mi novio dijo que había sido educado ya que había pagado y que tampoco podía terminarlo. . . él comerá cualquier cosa.No estoy seguro de cómo el filete se las arregla para ser a la vez raro, quemado y masticable a la vez. Dejó lo peor después del gusto. La salsa de queso era acuosa y no sabía a queso. Solo para aclarar, no fue el hecho de que el filete era raro, sino el horrible sabor posterior que era insoportable. Podía probarlo al menos media hora después de que nos fuéramos. He comido un filete de queso philly en Filadelfia y puedo confirmar que no estaba en absoluto cerca de lo que llamaría un filete de queso. Realmente lamenté comer tanto como lo hice y fue una pena desperdiciar dinero.Le he dado 2 estrellas porque el lugar real estaba bien, tocaba música decente y había juegos de mesa.

I visited Commonhall Street Social today for drinks, it was quiet in the bar with a few 2 other customers being served before me and 2 x staff behind the bar. I waited to be served at the bar and 3 x other customers who arrived after me, were served first! Experienced bar staff know which customers are next and who's been waiting longest. There was no acknowledgement that I'd been waiting or that I would be served next. I left the bar without being served. Chester is full of bars, so why would I want to come back to this one to be to treated this way ?

Was stopping in Chester with our dog for my partners 30th so i wrote a list of dog friendly pubs we could visit. The Commonhall was on the list and it didn't disappoint. The inside is cosy and has a friendly atmosphere, as we couldn't find anywhere to sit we opted for the heated outside area to the back of the property. They have three sheltered huts to sit in with cosy seats and cushions which was nice as the weather was bitter.

Just had 40th birthday here in the lovely upstairs room. Space for 30-40 guests and ideal for a relaxed gathering. Everyone who came commented on the style and atmosphere of the place and of course the food. Only thing I wished we’d done was order...

After first discovering commohall a while back my self and friends regularly visit, the prices for the alcohol may be slightly above average but the friendly staff and great atmosphere outways that.

I’ve been several times to Commonhall, and I’ve eaten a couple of times there. The food is quite nice even though at times you have to wait a long time even when the place is not busy. But what brings us back to this place is knowing that we can bring our labrador Dexter with us and the staff and other customers won’t be bothered. The staff is always attentive with our dog and that makes the experience so much enjoyable for us! Keep the good work guys!

We came here as a large group for food and drinks. The drink were good had a large choice. The place was quite snug and had a relaxed atmosphere. The service was mixed. The lady was excellent but the guy was lazy. The food was mixed. I got three starters which were the pea hummus that was gross, the sweet potato wedges were okay and the halloumi fries were heaven. We also got desert which again despite missing ingredients it was excellent. Would come again just for the halloumi fries.

Went on a Sunday lunchtime, four of us and a big dog. Chose the place as we know it for drinks and they promote themselves as dog friendly. Really like the feeling there. Friendly service and relaxed. The service was good and the dog his drink before us and his Sunday lunch at the same time. The menu has a few unusual choices and is priced at the medium level and about right. All just really nice.

The concept looked great, but the service was very poor. There was only one other couple in the dining area. It took nearly 40 minutes for the ordered meal to arrive, and that after my wife asked when the meal would be ready.

I have eaten here three times since my last review. It has been excellent each time. I was sceptical about the chicken bhuna pie - but it really works and the pastry is excellent. Everything surprised, even the bratwurst and sauerkraut, the latter looking very home made, maybe not your typical sauerkraut but delicious non the less. The beans on toasted sourdough also excellent... and not your dull 57 varieties tinned rubbish but home made with a mix of different beans. Yum! I also like the beers on offer. This is a really cool place with nice staff, good food, and delivers good value for money.

A big fan of this venue. The staff are always eager to help and MOST of the time serve with a smile. I can see everyone enjoys themselves as well which is always really nice to see behind the bar.

We visited on a Saturday afternoon at around 5pm. Myself and my partner drink ale and the barmaid said there was no ale. After pouring us “beer” she decided to tell us there was ale behind the bar. The drinks we had were overpriced at around £5 each and to be honest not very nice; very gassy. I appreciate each to their own regarding drinks, but we tried three different ones and none were particularly palatable. If an establishment is serving specialist beer, they need to have some knowledge about them, to ensure the customers know what they are buying. The beer garden is great and we’ve been a few times over Christmas and earlier in the year. However there were lads smoking joints which smelt awful. Not good. To top my visit off I visited the toilet on the way out. It was disgusting and that’s being kind. The floors were sticky and toilet roll all over the floor and not on rolls; they were a disgrace. I love this place but left extremely disappointed

Been a big fan of this place for over 2 years with excellent service always received, but the last 2 visits have been very disappointing. There seems to have been a change in bar staff recently and their service as suffered. The last two visits we have experienced bar staff with a complete lack of interest in wanting to serve you, instead more interested in playing on their mobiles. Their whole demeanour is dreadful and unfortunately this as had an impact on the vibe of the place. A message to the management team, get this sorted.

Called in for drinks with a group of mates after a meal in town. For the prices they charge you'd expect the drinks to be top quality. My partner ordered an espresso martini which I tried and decided to order one for my next drink. The guy serving said he'd bring it out to us. After about 10 minutes it turned up in a much bigger, tumbler type glass and tasted nothing like my partners. It tasted diluted with hardly any foam on top. Not a massive issue. The thing that really annoyed the whole group was when it got to 11pm they told us that the bar was closed so we decided to finish our drinks and head somewhere else. 25 minutes later, on the way out from the terrace and past the bar we noticed one of our group being served a glass of wine. When we questioned why we were told the bar was apparently closed earlier he just shrugged and said "well now this is the last drink" We just carried on walking and the glass of wine went with us. Nice enough place, drinks overpriced compared to similar bars in the area and some of the staff are arsey. Won't be going back anytime soon.

For something slightly different to your typical British pub fare, this hip bar/restaurant conveniently located in the historic centre of Chester consistently produces the goods. The burgers and pies in particular are excellent.

Met up with family today in this fabulous dog friendly busy city center bar/restaurant. As a Coeliac eating out can often be an issue but not here. Hats off to the chef team for creating a delicious gluten free alternative for me. Great atmosphere, friendly helpful staff (even though they were all flat out busy...summer Saturday!) Tables by the front could do with being a touch narrower to fit more people in and ladies loo needs a little tlc but purely from a constructive point of view. Will definitely return and recommend.

Not been here for food but came for a couple of drinks three times in the last couple of weeks. It's a bit hidden away down an alley so visitors to Chester would likely miss it.It's decorated really nicely and has a relaxed atmosphere. The outside terrace has a ping pong table, patio heaters and cushions and blankets which is a nice touch and makes it a bit different from other bars on Bridge Street and Watergate Street.Good choice of drinks, staff are friendly. Lovely place for a chilled drink with friends.

The Woodland is close to Ellemere Port Hospital and serves for much of the day. Usual "Stonehouse" fayre. Very pleasant member of staff who checked for allergies and carried our drinks to our table as I am dodgy on my feet. We took advantage of the offer of two meals for £11.75 from a reduced menu. Pleasant food, but nothing special, except the price.

Birthday treat for afternoon tea. Put us in a room on our own so I asked to be moved to sit with everyone else dining...which they did. Sandwiches brought out on saucer sized plate then another plate with cakes and scones. I asked why not served on 3 tier cake stand as she gave some poor excuse as to cakes might melt so they don't use them hower other diners had them! They forgot to bring the strawberries and cream and champagne we ordered. Waitress was moody and unhelpful and we had to go into bar for a cocktail as they were now shutting!! Huge amount of money for poor food and service. Never been back!
