I highly recommend this restaurant, the food is lovely. We had onion croquettes, padron peppers, roasted cauliflower and chicken wings, then a dark chocolate ganache with orange pieces for dessert. The staff deserve a special mention, they were very attentive and they were lovely. This restaurant is worth a trip to Chester just to go here!

Second visit and aside from the 'cheeseboard', we had a similar enjoyable experience. Apparently the drinks licence had not been renewed on time so we were paying the bar next door for the drink. They own the bar. A bit strange but no problem. Friendly service and a nice ambience, as it was last time. Decided to share the cheeseboard for dessert. A few pieces of cheese, some honey and some bread. I didn't want to spoil our evening so I didn't say anything but when we discussed it later, I realised that we'd both felt short changed. Perhaps time to try somewhere else on our visits to Alexanders in Rufus Court.

Absolutely fantastic food and a great selection of cocktails. Customer service was outstanding. Would recommend the mackerel and the chickpea fritters. 50% off on Wednesday. Will definitely be going back and have recommended to friends.

Wanted to take our son for his first tapas experience and we all loved it. Ate pretty much the whole menu between the 3 of us. Atmosphere was superb the 2 girls running the place were fantastic. Favourite dishes were the mackerel which I don't normally eat but was fantastic, cauliflower and the sautéed onions oh and the scallops. Loved it. Thanks girls

I am on cloud nine eating here, best experience in Chester for my entire life. FYI: it's literally off the beaten path, you have to go down the cobblestones for Rufus court

Booked in advance for a Saturday in November and probably a good idea as small restaurant and it was busy. Arrived early and not a problem. We were happy to enjoy some home made bread and some nice wine before our reservation time. Surprised not many reviews on here but I guess it is tucked away in Rufus Court. We were going to the Stipe gig at Alexander's so this was the perfect venue for us. Perfect ambience, good lighting and cosy. Manager was very helpful and we chatted a bit when it was less busy. Food was superb, partner is vegetarian and there was plenty of choice. We had four main tapas and the Patatas Bravas. The Sangiovese was excellent at £25. 10% service charge was fair, we had a lovely time and hope to be back again soon.

Stumbled upon this place after not being able to get in to nearby restaurants on a busy Saturday afternoon. What a find ! A warm welcome from April who was holding the fort on her own due to staff illness. The food was absolutely amazing, the Rose wine I recommend highly. There was an offer on for 2 plates and a glass of wine for £15 which we started with but added to as we enjoyed both so much. A nice touch, April ordered us a taxi as we were going to the theatre. I can recommend Greenhouse highly, we will be back.

The food and cocktails were delightful and the waitress was amazing. We had a wonderful evening, where all of our various needs were catered for. A great find in Chester, very good tapas, we'd all happily go back.

A little gem of a tapas bar tucked away from the crowds and well worth seeking out. We got a warm welcome from the friendly team. The food is a step up on the usual tapas offer with some more unusual and interesting dishes. We loved the Arancini, Smoked Mackerel and Beetroot Croquettes, Roasted Pumpkin and Feta.

Honestly really gutted, wasn't a single course we enjoyed. We got the broccoli cheese balls which were mush (which did taste okay) in fried breadcrumbs, the prawns which came with the shell on but still bland, the arancini were really dry, bland and needed sauce, and the steak was very tough, fatty and covered in oil. Even the bread was meant to come with red pepper butter and didn't. Portions were small, so we left hungry and went to Tesco's round the corner. Would consider going back for a drink but not for food.

Service was also friendly and efficient. Pudding deserves an extra mention both although on smaller side were absolutely stand outs - Raspberry Meringue with chocolate ganache was one of the best we've had. We will be back

Just had a really disappointing meal here. The portion sizes were tiny even for tapas. The wait time in between plates arriving was unacceptable. And although only a small menu, half of the options were unavailable. The food itself wasn’t bad, but we left hungry. The patatas bravas in particular was embarrassingly small, it was just a streak of mashed potato on a plate and it had gone cold by the time any of the meat dishes arrived.

Absolutely delighted we found this place, being vegan and travelling to Chester I found that as a city it isn't particularly hard to find vegan food on a menu but this menu stood out to me the most, and I love small plates as they are perfect to go along side cocktails, and the cocktails did not disappoint! The Green House cocktail was incredible and the espresso martini was amazing and was a perfect drink to go along side the chocolate pot dessert. The food was beautifully presented and the flavours were spectacular, some of the nicest food we have had! My partners seafood really impressed him. The only thing I would change is the size of the Bravas as it was delicious and I love the take on it but it was small and we wanted more! The decor and atmosphere were great, really to our taste, and we really enjoyed the music. Our waitress went above and beyond and was genuine and friendly. She let me know one of the vegetarian dishes could be made vegan for me and also advised us on places to drink after and gave us a great tip about a secret 1920s American prohibition bar which was amazing too and really topped off the night. Great establishment and we will definately be back!

The staff and service were great - especially April., but otherwise we were slightly underwhelmed. The lighting in the reception area was extremely harsh & bright and not much better upstairs. If you prefer subtle lighting and a cosy candlelit vibe, this place is not for you. The food was fine, but the portions were very small. We ordered patatas bravas, but instead of the traditional dish that we expected, we were presented with a thin slab of a "deconstructed" version. We literally had two mouthfuls each, which was tasty but disappointing. The biggest portion was the blood orange salad, and that was delicious. If you are planning on eating here, I would maybe have a snack before you go. I'm not a huge eater, but there definitely wasn't enough food to feel satisfied.

In one of Chester’s beautiful little areas The Green House is visually appealing inside and out. Great service, wonderful drinks menu and the food was absolutely delicious. So much interesting and varied dishes to choose from we got a bit carried away but not one crumb was left. My personal favourite has to be the olive ascolane & the scallops. If you fancy trying something a little different where the chef has a great panache for flavours and presentation then this is the place to go. A big thank you to the owners and staff for making our evening so enjoyable.
