As someone who suffers with a disability I was treated badly. I suffer with serious narcolepsy my whole party were ejected without reason and even when explained after only having 2 drinks we were asked to leave. Never ever again.

I was there on 29-3-25. I noticed that someone had given the wrong food to the customer on the table. They went back to the table and asked the customer if they had touched the food and then took it away from her and then continued to take that plate to the right customer. That plate of food should have been put in the bin. Very bad service that.

We called in as we always do when in Chester. This was Sunday last weekend. We sat at a table where you can see the food under hot lamps. We watched a burger in bun, chips waiting to be delivered to a table. Numerous staff ignored it being there even the manager, ignored it too. It remained there for at least twenty minutes eventually the manager checked the food screen had discussions with some staff and what we saw next horrified us especially when two trained chefs were with us. The manager who had been collecting bottles, glasses from tables took off the top of the burger bun put his hands on top of the burger and chips with no gloves and dirty contaminated hands to check the warmth of the burger and chips. He then went on to scrape the chips off into a bin, got new chips on the plate and took the food out to a customer. It took all our strength to not interfere, we felt sorry for the customer. We will never eat here again, and just to say he knew we were watching and he still continued with this poor practice. He does not portray good practice so why should his team members.

Totally bewildered by the red haired bar lady demanding myself and a friend to leave after a single drink. Myself and my friend were sat chatting pleasantly for around an hour before deciding to order a second drink - before being told I was too drunk to order. I don't usually leave reviews like this, however I've never experienced this level of disrespect! What poor service, shocking pub

The Square Bottle is located in the heart of Chester and is one of two Wetherspoons in Chester and its located on Foregate street were there are some interesting pubs/bars and restaurants to visit. This Wetherspoon's has a spacious interior with many interesting fixtures and features relating to the history of Chester.They offer as all Wetherspoon pubs offers a fantastic range of well priced food and drinks and is a pub we've visited many times on our visits to Chester. We went here a couple of times on our stay in Chester and had a few meal's and a few cask ales.The meal's where superb and the cask ales spot in.Its a superb Wetherspoon pub in a superb area of Chester and is well worth visiting if your around this area.(This is my second review of the Square Bottle). Opening Hours. Monday-Thursday-08.00-00.00. Friday-Saturday-08.00-01.00. Sunday-08.00-00.00.

The Square Bottle Pub in Chester is one of the busiest pubs in the city,a big Wetherspoon pub that I always look forward to visiting on any trip to this historic Roman walled city I take. The pub itself is superb, an island style serving bar dominates the main room, typical Wetherspoon decor and furnishings, photo's of old Chester adorning the walls and there's plenty of seating options spread throughout this pub, its just a really good pub to unwind in . On our two day stay in Chester we visited this pub and had a bit of a beer session here ,started off with some great real ale's which were served in pristine condition, as we are members of C.A.M.R.A we have C.A.M.R.A tokens which entitle you to 50p off the price of a real ale pint so making a great value for money pint an even better value for money pint, we also had a meal here ,a pizza which was so tasty, we enjoyed some continental beers,the bottles of Birra Moretti, a great Italian lager style beer were amazing, couldn't fault anything about our visit here, can't wait to go again next time we're in Chester. The Square Bottle is easy to locate along Foregate Street. Opening hours are; Monday to Sunday, 8am till midnight. Well worth checking out if you're in the area or planning a trip to Chester.

We visited the pub on Saturday. We sat at table 24. My partners expensive top was torn on the NAILS STICKING UP FROM THE TABLE. I have contacted Wetherspoons only to to receive a reply “thanks for letting us know” I have requested a form of compensation And a copy of their public liability insurance document. It seems the manager, Jordan I think doesn’t care about customers and has brushed this incident under the carpet. Please see pics of the danger we encountered

2 people behind the bar when it was quite b7sy obviously had no interest in serving people in any kind of order of how long they had been standing at the bar. My friend politely asked he could be served next after 3 people were served before him after they had arrived at the bar after him the reply was if you say anything else you will not be served at all.

We are regular users of Wether spoons pubs,as we travel monthly on day coach trips all over the country. I was surprised that this particular pub allows people to bring their dogs in. It is Wetherspoons policy only to allow guide dogs into their premises. I did ask to speak with a manager but the person who appeared to be on duty was not from that particular pub and said that a more senior member had allowed the two couples and their dogs into the premises.

Waited over 30 mins for drinks ordered from the app. Toilets are filthy, at 4.15 on a Saturday afternoon, there is no loo paper, flush not working and the whole area looks like ut hasn't been cleaned for days. Only a trickle of water from the tap. Disappointed, can usually relay on the basics at a weatherspoons

Oh dear. Got there at 635, ordered at 650. Got to 750pm no food. Spoke to a member of staff and he said there's a rush on, nothing for 20 minutes. Spoke to him again and he said he would chase it up. Got to 1 hour and 20 minutes waiting 810pm found the manager Spoke to him and asked why it's taking so long. Apparently they put my food on hold by accident. Got the food in roughly 1 hour and 30 minutes waiting. All I ordered was 2 burgers and a wrap. The food came and the egg was underdone and snotty. I think they rushed it out when they realised they messed up. The manager gave me a free pint for waiting a horrendous amount of time but even for a Friday this is unacceptable. We were in a hurry to go to a gig and was now late to it. My friends sitting on the same table did a separate order and got it in 20 minutes, also everyone around us got their food even though they got there after us. Never eating here again. Ridiculous awful service. Never again, shambles

Having a child with SEN needs makes you judge places like this in a vastly different way. With 3 children to navigate around a popular children’s destination as a lot of families do, it’s crucial and very considerate of the location to offer some support/adaptations to the experience to make it inclusive to all parents and children. My eldest son of 6 has complicated genetic issues and strong autism characteristics. Sadly cheshire ice cream farm failed on this miserably. There were zero provisions for autistic children or children with differing issues. Small things like being able to go on rides without queuing for half an hour which is impossible for my son and a lot of similar children makes the experience better for all. In other parks around the world this is widely accepted as we’ve experienced and most other parents are generally understanding. Whether we were queuing for rides or snacks and ice cream, it was hugely stressful for my son who doesn’t understand we have to queue. No staff of parents offered to let us go first and it became increasingly stressful and we felt like a hindrance rather than being welcomed and able to relax and enjoy the facilities like everyone else. The arcade area of the restaurant that my son would have enjoyed to calm him down was up some stairs which would have limited access for any wheelchair bound children wanting to use this facility. It was also years 7 and under. To which we were told because my son was 6 he would have to leave immediately. And as the room was a welcome rest item for him this only added to the stress for us as he wanted to stay and play for 5 minutes. Safe to say we won’t be returning to Cheshire ice cream farm anytime soon and urge any other parents of SEN children to do the same.

The food was amazing, all 6 of us had different choices and we were all happy. I had the small fish and chips, it was delicious. Nice atmosphere, lovely place, good location, delicious food, amazingly friendly staff and good service. What more can you ask for
