The best restaurants in Chester City Cheshire West and Chester North West

My friend and I stayed here on Friday 18th October. A brilliant location just perfect, unfortunately that is the only good thing i can say about. From springs sticking out of the mattress, to faulty lights, not central light so room appears dark. However the worst is the noise, although we were told on arrival it would be a quiet night and finish early. It didn't and at 2am when the music ended the staff then made a lot of noise moving the furniture under a canopy which lasted nearly an hour. I can't believe they think people of any age would be able to sleep through such noise

My mum and I visited here for afternoon tea. All of the staff were so polite and professional. It really made the difference and something that you don’t see so regularly in hospitality this side of the pandemic. All of the food was excellent and it was nice to be offered extra sandwiches too. We chose the gentleman’s option and it’s highly recommended. My only tiny bit of constructive criticism was the room was a bit tired in its decoration. Slightly faded glory.

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!

A lovely breakfast/ brunch meal at around 11 am. The service was great and the setting was lovely. Highly recommended and we will be back.

It's an oasis of peace and solitude amid the hustle and bustle of a busy touristy Chester. The food is served with a smile by volunteers who are giving their time to help earn extra money for the cathedral restoration. It is a nice place to eat and relax and make a contribution

I was treating a friend to an overnight stay near Chester with the first day being spent on a shopping spree in the city, something that was long overdue thanks to the covid lockdown. I tried to find somewhere a little different for us to eat that lunchtime as the restaurant we would normally use had sadly closed permanently. We found this a rather unusual place and opted for the tapas style small plates. With hindsight, we should have ordered less than we did as the portions were larger than expected. The decor was a little odd and not particularly to my taste. The service was fairly attentive without being over the top and as far as we could tell, all covid guidelines were followed.

Positives: nice decor and friendly staff. Scottish breakfast tasted nice. Negatives. No kids menu so ordered beans and cheese on toast and just beans on toast for a 9 and 3 year old. Arrived as one slice of toast and half a can of beans each with one slice of cheese on one. Both cost the same even though we asked for a kids portion. So for £17.90 we got 2 slices of bread, a tin of beans and one cheese slice. Bizarre price tag for what you got - you would expect a decent main meal in a restaurant for that. However nice experience, just possible needs price review on some of the menu items and possible a kids version.

Tried lots of places for breakfast. This is my favourite. Staff always attentive and pleasant. Excellent service. Good quality food served with a no fuss approach. Ordering at counter and food brought to you which is great. The prices are very competitive. Eggs & Mushrooms on toast and a Cappuccino for under £10!

First day of opening after lockdown, excellent food in a nice courtyard, nice to be eating out again, nice Lasagne and a Peroni to wash it down,wife had chicken burger and a glass of red! Nice friendly staff and well worth a visit!

Came here with friends and we just all thought it was too expensive for what it was. The service was a little slow but I understand on Saturday that it’s the same everywhere. However the drinks we had were on the expensive side. We had cocktails and in most places they are a couple of pounds cheaper and are better quality. Would recommend going to Watergate Street with Liquor, Bar Lounge, Kahiki, Palm and Craft to name a few! Cocktails are slightly cheaper and the quality from what we have witnessed is a lot better.

really cute and christmas-ish, hot chocolate was amazing, the short waitress with the freckles and the christmas jumper was lovely.

I always have chicken chow mein from here. It is the best chow mein i’ve had from the area, not sitting in liquid, no soggy veg, always hot and plenty of it. reasonably priced too. My partner always has the yung chow and he can’t fault it. Wish they still did the sweet & sour though, because that was also super tasty!

Thank you so much to James, Caffè Nero, Foregate Street, Chester for the truly excellent service and perfectly prepared drink. James, you're a customer service superstar, you were incredible with all your customers, you really brighten a cool, grey day into rays of warm sunshine. Keep going, you're awesome.

Very friendly and helpful staff who were happy to make us what we wanted. We also noted that the cafe has a Changing Places Toilet too. Brilliant that it has this inclusive facility....

Wot do you actually sell for a £ absolutely diabolical while in town carefully spending my universal credit I fancied a pound bakery pastie as I ordered a cheese and onion slice I was so shocked to hear it was £1.70 I had to steady myself my legs went to jelly I'm sorry but thus is clearly out of my price
