“Myself and my partner ate here as our first date night during lockdown! We’d been looking for a place that could prepare traditional gyros to help us get over missing Santorini so much. It did not disappoint! I had the halloumi and my partner had the chicken gyros. Massive portions, fast and clean service and so, so yummy! We’ll definitely be visiting again soon!”

“Excellent service, ice cold Camden IPA. Great cocktails also. Amazing atmosphere and had live music too.”

“Wonderful apartment with 5 star service from beginning to end. The owner, Patrizio, has some serious interior design skills, the place is so beautiful. For a group of girls going to Chester Races ladies day, it was the perfect glamorous spot. Right in the centre of Chester surrounded by boutiques, restaurants and bars, yet very peaceful inside. Breakfast brought to the room was the icing on the cake. I can see this becoming an annual event!”

“Popped in for the first time (Tuesday 3rd June) and I must say how impressed I was by the welcome I received from the lad behind the bar and the customers. We got talking straight away and a “Pop in a for a quick pint” moment led to three. Just moved into the area and will be joining soon.”

“Very nice and lively place. We went there for dinner and the pasta dishes, made by their sister place Pronto Pasta, were absolutely amazing. Also the Selekt Spiritz made by the bartender of the Venetian was great, true Venice style. Highly recommended.”

“A nice selection of hot drinks ( I like the flavoured tea). Amazing, peaceful atmosphere in the church.”

“Had a mirror custom made to size here in about 1990, I was very happy with the service so returned in May 2017 when I needed a mirror for my new bathroom. This time I also purchased a bathroom light. They sell everything you needed for a complete bathroom and all kinds of DIY stuff. Very helpful and knowledgeable staff.”

“Ordered a hot chocolate for takeout at £3.70 and it was lovely. Hours are fantastic as lots of events held throughout all times of day.”

“Good value for money good portion size Food tastes really good Been here for generations . We have never had a poor meal”

“It's now known as Jay's Bistro my friend and I had the full English breakfast it was delicious definitely be going back”

“Amazing service. I forgot to get his name but he was so friendly and chatty. Nothing was too much for him. Food was quick although it was quiet so can't speak for busier times. Food was absolutely gorgeous. I am not a spicy food person but it was so tasty. Portions are huge so was able to take it home in a takeaway box. Coffee was lovely and really enjoyed the ice tea. Boyfriend had the steak which he said was great and he is fussy with food so must be good! 25% student discount also! Will definitely be returning soon thanks!”

“Can’t compliment them enough. The food is excellent and the variety is eclectic, from mussels to Chilli. Great pub food at sensible prices and the beer is also priced sensibly. You can sit outside or in but the tables inside do seem to be reserved by regulars which might be a bit off putting when you walk in as you can see a sea of reserved signs! Staff are great and helpful too the sharing platter for starters was excellent. Haven’t tried the desserts but they looked good. Ant understand why people would chose anywhere else in Hoole for lunch”

“I booked 13 rooms at The Pied Bull in Chester for myself and a group of work colleagues, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. The welcome on arrival was warm and genuine, and every member of staff we interacted with was friendly, helpful, and incredibly accommodating (special thanks to the ladies working when I checked in on the evening of the 26/11) The rooms were consistently clean, comfortable, and spacious, with excellent beds and generously sized showers. Everyone in our group commented on how well they slept and how well-maintained the rooms were. The blend of historic character with modern comfort added a special charm that really sets The Pied Bull apart. Breakfast was another standout: high-quality, hearty, and freshly prepared, exactly what we needed to start a busy day. For the standard of accommodation, service, and the central location, the value for money was genuinely impressive. Speaking of location, you couldn’t ask for more and a few of the group said they’d return here if they visit Chester again. Jason”

“Had a couple of drinks in here. Very reasonable in price and friendly service. I'm not a big heavy rock fan but when we went in the music wasn't deafening so quite enjoyed it.”

“The only top tier Chinese takeaway I've found since moving to Chester earlier this year. Never eaten in at the restaurant itself, as I tend to just ordered online. They have a really good app with great deals. Really nice food and fresh, delivery is quick. Thank you!”

“Amazing fast and efficient service from Iqbal and delicious food. Lovely atmosphere to dine in and was a pleasant evening for ourselves to dine out.”

“This place is outstanding. The cleanliness was perfect and the views are stunning from its full length glass windows. The food is super scrumptious and good size portions. Excellent menu. All in all a fabulous restaurant.”

“Dave and Ffion gave an amazing welcome. Adam in the kitchen delivered this masterpiece! I couldn’t fault anything. Lovely visit.”

“Beautiful food, quick service, as soon as starters were finished plates were cleared and main was ready and served a few minutes later, all staff were happy and cheerful even for coming to end of shifts! Made me and my partner smile hearing a chef happily singing along to the radio clearly enjoying himself and passionate about the food being served being genuinely good, checking in with us about taste. Only popped in on the way past and so glad we did!”

“Centrally located beautiful south indian food restaurant. We went here on weekday evening. Didnt realise but it was a nice candle lit fine dining restaurant. Staff was very well aware of the dishes and recommended some amazing dishes. We tried Chicken 65, Beef, Kerala parotta, lamb curry, kothu parotta. Amazing flavour and well spiced.”

“We had a fantastic experience at Opera Restaurant Bar & Grill! It was our first time visiting, and everything from the atmosphere to the food was absolutely perfect. A special thank you to Mark ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ , who served us—his customer service was excellent! He was warm, helpful, and made us feel very welcome. We’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended”

“Cozy and welcoming restaurant with excellent service. The meals were fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented.”

“What a place to have food and drink! Amazing! This must have been where the monks used to eat. We had the winter vegetable soup. Nice not salty. Atmosphere is really fine.”

“Lovely afternoon spent at The Mount Inn. The views are as good as previous reviews have stated. Special mention to the staff who served us on the afternoon of the 24th, who were friendly and efficient. Will be back next time we visit Chester.”

“Best breakfast in Cheshire! At £13 for the Full English it is on the pricey side for a breakfast but you will not be disappointed. The only thing i would say is each time we've visited the open dining space is a little chilly!”

“Honestly every time I have been the staff have been so lovely with myself and little girl. She loves getting chips before we get the bus home from mold :) the food is really fresh and nicely cooked”
