The Flower Cup in Cheshire West and Chester

Beautiful coffee shop with magnificent plants. We had an excellent hot chocolate and a cookie (which was wrapped in plastic in the display windows though : is it homemade? ).

Thoroughly enjoyed breakfast here, hubby had sausage cob, I had wild mushrooms on toast…I have to say the most amazing mushrooms on toast I’ve ever had! Lovely environment with friendly and helpful staff!

Really cute cafe in chester. Only been a few times but everytime it’s been amazing. The biscoff french toast is amazing!!

Amazing venue on the Rows! Seemed very popular on Sunday morning, but the place is large enough to cope and has some lovely seating outside under cover over looking watergate street! Amazing Eggs Benedict but was so tempted by lots of other things on the menu!! Can’t fault this place xxx

We were delighted to be greeted at the door and the waitress showed us to a lovely table that accommodated our two dogs. She immediately offered us menus and a water bowl for the dogs, something we’d usually have to ask for at most cafes. The menu was enticing and varied, I opted for the American pancakes which were soft and fluffy, and a fantastic sized portion which kept me full until teatime. I had a cappucino with oat milk which was delicious and my partner really enjoyed his first ever Spiced chai latte. I really can’t wait to go back to this beautiful cafe and sample the lunch menu. The staff were so friendly and accommodating and everything on the menu looked delicious! My favourite cafe in Chester by a country mile, simply delightful.

The menu was nice and also contemporary. The service was also quite pleasant. I ordered a sausage bap. However, the bap arrived dry and completely unbuttered, which I was surprised about. Also, the milk came in a small drinking glass which clearly would never be able to pour. Indeed, the glass poured milk everywhere other than in the cup. I also didn't appreciate the grubby walls - especially in the lower half of the room. I think the room could do with cleaning and painting, and the issues mentioned should be rectified.

Dog friendly nice friendly place to eat lunch, a bit quirky, good choice on the menu and reasonably price. Good location lovely staff

We were a party of five and had to wait more than half an hour for a table. Although this was frustrating, it was a good sign that customers were able to enjoy their meal unrushed. Although it was busy, there was a calm atmosphere. The food was well cooked and hot, and the coffee lovers amongst us were happy with the coffee. The quality-price ratio was good and I would have no hesitation in returning.

Wish we hadn't seen the good reviews. This was the worst meal we had of the 7 meals we had out on our weekend trip to Chester. The coffee was so bitter like it had been burnt. The toast was soggy, undercooked fatty streaky bacon. Overcooked fried egg. Underwhelming orange juice and baked beans with so much saratcha I could only eat 1 if them( which I did to try them, and left the rest.) noone came to check on how the meal was. You do get a whole bunch of pea shoots, which I suppose is healthy but doesn't really go with the odd full English. Definitely not a place I would recommend or return to there are far better places to eat in Chester

From all the great reviews we were expecting something special. This was not the case. As somebody else commented the bacon was undercooked. The toast was probably the best thing about the meal but was soggy though all the other breakfast items being piled on top. Wood hand lined to have ordered another coffee as I had finished my first one when the food arrived but did not get the opportunity to do so as the staff were too busy leaning on the bar area drinking their own coffees and chatting.

We were delighted to find such a beautifully kept cafe, with such friendly staff who provide exceptional food (and with Vegan options too.....really good vegan options...which is bloody hard to find). We had the Vegan breakfast and the Wild Mushrooms on Sourdough toast. Cooked to perfection, with bundles of flavour and large portions too (so you do get value for your money here). Great selection of hot and cold drinks and I believe cakes too (we will try the latter next time).

The pancakes were amazing and the coffee was delicious . Great choice of brunch, both sweet and savoury. Service was quick but not rushed. Well worth the long wait for a table, can’t wait to return

Delicious food, lovely little cafe. Staff very accommodating. Had to wait 10 mins for a table but well worth the short wait

Super breakfast and great quality food. Poached eggs in sourdough cooked to perfection with lovely smoky bacon. Very large portion of avocado and eggs on granary toast. Breakfast tea was delicious too.

First visit to Chester this weekend with my girlfriend and stumbled on The Flower Cup via Instagram. Food was amazing. Couldn’t fault it. Both of us said we’d order the same again if we had the room.

Great little cafe on the rows on Watergate street, a hidden gem. Freshly cooked brunch style food and excellent coffee. We were thoroughly impressed

We visited pancake day and were not disappointed! The pancake stack was unbelievable i was so happy with everything. xx

Came in for breakfast/brunch, food came very quickly and was lovely, coffee was excellent, and had an iced tea to take away after which was just as nice

Really nice little cafe, lovely food and the chefs are all lovely! Front of house staff are really friendly and accommodate everyone. My little boy loves them and loves coming for a hot chocolate with marshmallows and chocolate pancakes that the chef do specially for him!

Went with 2 of my children. We had pancakes with maple syrup, a breakfast and a Welsh rarebit dish. We had a pot of tea and 2 hot chocolates which came with a lovely decoration on top. Was outstanding in all areas, food was hot, tasty, filling and very well presented. Waiting on staff were friendly and most efficient. The establishment was very busy, very clean and a really lovely atmosphere. We all throughly enjoyed our visit here and would most definitely return soon. Would highly recommend to anyone.

Friendly, with a nice atmosphere. The café is stylish but casual enough you feel like you can chill out here. The food is good, and the prices are not bad for the quality.

Excellent place for breakfast. I had halloumi, avocado and a poached egg on granary bread. My husband had welsh rarebit and my son had the pancakes with syrup. Everything was delicious and the coffees in particular were great, shame they didn't come in larger sizes. It was really busy so it looks like you may have to queue at busy times. Would recommend, shame we don't live nearer.

An amazing little cafe with a wonderful vibe. I went in for coffee with my girlfriend and treated myself to one of their specials, it was the smores french toast and it was 10/10!!! The portions were very generous for the cost and it set me up for my day. The staff were brilliant, really quick and attentive service and very friendly welcome, I will definitely be coming back again!

This place used to be lovely and the service used to be great. However, on our last visit the staff were just stood around chatting and they didn’t come to the table when we were waiting. Such a shame.

I love having brunch at the Flower Cup in Chester. Everything I have eaten there is tasty, nutritious, great value for money and of a very high quality. My favourites are smoked salmon and avocado on granary toast, and blueberry pancakes. The coffee is delicious, and is the best in Chester. There is a lovely atmosphere in the Flower Cup, and the staff are very friendly and helpful. I recommend the Flower Cup to anyone looking for great food and great coffee in Chester.

Today I departed from my usual avocado and smoked salmon, to try the October special, spiced pumpkin French toast, and was not disappointed. Even though I am not a huge fan of pumpkin this was absolutely delicious. The pumpkin purée was sweet and crunchy thanks to the seeds, I don’t know what was in the delicious concoction that topped the French toast but it was awesome. The menu is very different to the usual chain coffee shops, so much choice, and specials change regularly. Prices are reasonable too, usually 2 mains and 2 drinks for well under £30. Staff are really friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend the Flower Cup.

Lovely colourful cafe, lots of plants and artwork around. Eaten here a few times and the food is always tasty and the staff are friendly and attentive. Today's halloumi bap had loads of halloumi, although I did add guac to the bap and think it was needed. Also picked up some earrings for a Christmas present whilst I was there.

It’s a shame because the menu sounds really great and like it has so many options, but the food is really naff especially for the prices. Spending almost £40 on breakfast & drinks for two ppl and thinking that the brekky you make at home is better is a bit disheartening. Could not taste any of the coffee syrup in our drinks, felt like non had been put in, and no seasoning on most of the breakfast food and quite greasy and bland. Staff are friendly though but that’s the only positive.

Visited on Sunday morning, was busy but was seated quickly enough- sat on a table outside overlooking watergate street. I had the blueberry pancakes and partner went for the Flowercup breakfast. Both looked and tasted amazing but the pancakes were next level fluffy and tasted so good! Can see why there was a queue forming outside. First time here but certainly won’t be the last.

I think the interior of this cafe is nice enough, the staff are nice enough but the food is very expensive and not worth paying this price for in my opinion. I ordered an apple crumble which for the price (between £11 and £12) was not great, I ate a little bit of it before realising I really wasn’t enjoying it. I noticed that this cafe have responded to a previous complaint by saying they would have offered to take something off the bill or a replacement if a customer wasn’t happy - this was definitely not offered to me. I have also been to the Jaunty Goat in Chester and all I can say is their food is so much better and customer service/satisfaction much better too!

Went as the reviews were amazing, however extremely disappointed! We arrived and decided to sit outside which was lovely, however wasn’t told there would be a 30 minute wait on food - when others arrived we could hear the waiter telling them this. We ordered 2 lattes and they were both freezing! We asked for 2 more and for them to be hot! Luckily they were. However, we were still charged for the first 2 cold ones! When food arrived my beans were freezing cold! Sent them back - came back slightly warmed. £41 for 4 lattes (personally feel I shouldn’t have had to pay for my 2 cold ones), 1 egg’s benefits and 1 avocado and halloumi on toast. Staff didn’t seem bothered. Very unfriendly and seemed like they couldn’t be arsed! Definitely won’t be visiting anytime soon.

Only popped in here for drinks. Really liked the light fresh feel of the place and how vibrant it felt. It’s in a great location on the rows in Chester and if you’re lucky enough to get one of the outside tables you can people watch while looking at the beautiful Chester. Service was polite and efficient but we decided to only have drinks as we were told there was a 30 to 40 minute wait for food. Other people’s dishes did look amazing as they were brought out though!

The restaurant is on the upper level down Watergate Street in Chester. We had breakfast and food was great. I had bacon, halloumi, avocado, beans and poached egg on sourdough toast. The helping size was good and it was very tasty. I would recommend stopping here if you are in Chester and want a coffee or something to eat.

Excellent food, service and ambiance. Attentive staff, friendly and definitely a place to visit for a nice treat

Arrived first thing for a breakfast. Cheerful service. We ordered one flower cup breakfast and toast, a sausage and two bacon. Plus a coffee and juice. The bread with both was very thick doorstops. It looks lovely but it’s a lot of bread to eat and isn’t really what we wanted - less bread and more breakfast would have been better. The bacon wasn’t back bacon and was about half fat, half bacon, and could have down with a bit more cooking so we didn’t enjoy that. The sausage was OK. When I was half way through my breakfast I thought I’d remembered that the menu said black pudding was included. I didn’t get any black pudding and certainly didn’t ask for the breakfast without as it’s usually one of my favourite parts. I should have asked then but I assumed I’d made a mistake and it wasn’t included. It was only as I left I saw the menu again. Overall for £32 we thought it could have been a lot better - more normal bread (or at least notice to expect a doorstop), less fatty bacon, black pudding. Will try somewhere different next time.

Fab breakfast, was informed there would be a wait of 30 mins, but it came before that. Staff very warm and welcoming. Will definitely recommend and ho back.

Had a table out on the Rows overlooking Watergate St., delicious light and fluffy vegan pancakes with maple syrup and a hot and spicy Shakshuka washed down with a really rich strong coffee for a perfect brunch.

This is my favourite spot to come for some good food and drink. This is my mum and I’d favourite spot. We come here loads and always have an amazing experience. I have also come here solo and had a great time

Don't be fooled by the unpretentious looks; this cafe is a great place to eat. Our eggs were poached to perfection, and the coffee was excellent. Service was prompt and friendly. I'll be going back next time I'm in Chester.

Had a wonderful breakfast of eggs florentine here, yesterday! Cooked to perfection and tasted wonderful. Staff very helpful and polite! Can’t wait to visit again! Thank you!

Really nice food and staff are friendly and attentive. Good choice of food on the menu. Love the theme and decor

Good food gorgeous setting. To tell us there was a 45 minute wait on food after we’d ordered was a bit odd . Surely this should have been done on sitting down . Nice staff .

The best cafe in Chester!! We have visited Chester on a few occasions, we came across this lovely cafe on one of our recent visits & it is now our fave place for breakfast and one of the reasons we return to Chester from sheffield!...
