The best restaurants serving British food in Chester City Cheshire West and Chester North West

I ordered afternoon tea to be delivered to an air bnb we were staying at for my hen do, and the food was absolutely gorgeous. It came on beautifully wrapped and presented cake stands and individual dietary requirements were catered for perfectly, giving those people their own box of goodies. Everyone loved the food and it was soooo reasonably priced. Very impressed and would 100% recommend! Thank you 🥰

First time eating here and wow we were not disappointed.. great place and atmosphere, the food was delicious and cooked to perfection, and the staff were absolutely amazing, we couldn’t fault anything , would definitely recommend and go again.

Best place for brunch. Homemade food fantastic staff the woman who served me was amazing. It’s delicious and very good on portions and price xx

Went with friends on the evening of Chester Races which may have been a tactical error. Starters were fine but one of our parties fish and chips wasn’t good at all. There was something wrong with the fish. However the problem was very well dealt with by the manager. Ultimately a disappointing meal but very good service.

Fantastic breakfast here and great service too

Great location for meet ups. Efficient bar staff, Cask ales in tip top condition. Keg beers and lager available. Close proximity to many good eateries. Pub cat may make an appearance and has a wonderful open fire on chilly evenings. Outdoor area at the rear and a landlord full of Chester historical info (and otter beer at times 😀). Pub style is typical of a community, wet lead place and has won many awards. A must visit for any good beer guide followers

Given a Groupon voucher as a gift for this meal. We got the budget Groupon service. Small table tucked away. Tonight a long story short the rump top steak cut we were only able to have with this package was so chewey and poor it had to be re cooked just to be edible The monkfish cheeks I had as a starter was tiny and smothered in a curried sauce the triple cooked chips were processed thin croquettes. And the Dirty mash did t seem to have the bacon lardons. Just some gravy and a sprig of cooked onions. All in all a poor showing for what looks like a lovely place to dine. To top it off the first bill presented was for the full meal no Groupon voucher taken into account. And the waitresses rolled her eyes when I explained their error. Chester has a lot of dining experiences and we go to a few when we can. I don’t think we will revisit this one.

Excellent food and friendly staff. The building is beautiful but the staff made us feel very welcome and the food was outstanding.

We called in here for breakfast as it was very close to the hotel where we were staying. It is on the ground floor of Chester’s historic “Rows” and has a very attractive interior with a vaulted ceiling. We had coffee and toast. The coffee was lukewarm. We were annoyed that they did not take cash.

Just had afternoon tea to celebrate our anniversary. The food was delicious and the staff were outstanding. The dining room was warm and cosy. Altogether a memorable anniversary treat.

Really lovely cafe with incredibly friendly staff and great service. They are very dog-friendly too. Only stopped in for a quick bite but we were really impressed by how welcoming they were. Our lunch was also very tasty.

We came for a bottomless brunch on a Friday evening and the service was AMAZING! We were served by Katie, who was very attentive and went above and beyond for us all evening. We had the BEST experience, by far the BEST bottomless in Chester!! Will definitely be returning!! 🩷

I came here for an early evening meal, the place was quiet. It's nice to see the chef at work, from your table. There's a counter bell for when a order is ready; I suppose this can get a bit of annoying when it's packed. I decided to go for an 8oz steak, with rocket salad & frites; the peppercorn sauce was extra. I had it well done, it was just right; although there weren't many frites. So I decided to have a desert; a twist on the apple pie them, with an apple pie pancake. This came with icecream on top, and some kind of sweet sauce.

Average ingredients, would profit from a better service, the food arrived s bit late although not busy during that time!

In spite of the name this pub is definitely in the centre of Chester. We enjoyed sitting outside in the area at the front of the pub on a very pleasant spring day. It is very much a traditional pub. My partner enjoyed a good quality draught beer and I had a small bottle of Prosecco.
