    Food as always amazing. Didn’t ruin a great evening, but service slow and attentiveness from front-of-house team needs to step up to match.

    Delicious Sunday lunch, everything about it was amazing, the lobster starter dish was unlike anything I’ve eaten before an utterly delicious combination of ingredients. the pork chop on the Roast menu was beautifully cooked and the stuffed Yorkshire pudding was a meal in itself! All the veg was cooked with the most flavour brought out individually and the gravy is the stickiest richest ever! The worst part of the meal was that I didn’t have any room left for pudding!!

    Excellent food and service, only the ambience of the restaurant is lacking. In particular, the lighting and background music quality, makes you feel like you’re eating in a cafe, rather than a high end restaurant. Food is definitely 5 stars and the best Chester has to offer!
