There are a couple more pumps unused on this particular Friday lunchtime so maybe they serve some more beer sometimes? We shared a tasty soup for starter, the richness of which meant I could already feel that I was filling up even before my big chilli cheese burger arrived. I somehow still managed it though. It was pretty darn good and the chips that came with it were as like fish and chip shop chips as any I have encountered in a pub before. Service was excellent. The girl who served us was helpful, friendly and attentive.

The pub regularly show live football matches on a large screen at the rear of the pub as well as a number of smaller tvs situated throughout.

The bar staff are very friendly and the prices are generally a lot cheaper than other Chester establishments. Real ale on tap. Highly recommended.

What a great place!…read more 5 of us ate here a few days ago and were mightily impressed. I'm Vegan and the other 4 are carnivores so between us we tried a varied array of dishes. Firstly, Vegan choices are plentiful. I had the battered tofu as a starter and the Vegan burger with sweet potato fries as a main. Both were excellent and, if I'm honest, the burger was one of the best I've had. There were many other Vegan dishes on the menu including curries, Moroccan dishes and so on, all clearly marked. The people with me had meat burgers, pork belly, various chicken dishes and sides. Everyone seemed impressed with their food and the vibe of the place. Needless to say that the choice of beer was impressive and a quick Google search showed that many were suitable for Vegans. The place itself is its own micro-brewery so beer fans shouldn't be disappointed. Staff were friendly enough and the decor and layout of the place were good. Highly recommended!

We also spotted the numerous Michelin star decals on the door, so we knew this was the spot! We saw they had several lunch specials including 3 sandwiches. I was out with the family and all of them got the Brisket sandwich which came with a small salad, and they all ordered a side of chips as well. They all loved their sandwich which they remarked was crispy. I ordered the celeriac and chestnut soup which featured fresh local produce. It was only a starter, so I expected it to be only a cup of soup, but it was a full bowl that came with a side of freshly made sourdough bread and very nice butter. I also ordered a side of truffle parmesan potatoes which were delicious. I'm a total sucker for anything truffle, so there was no way I wasn't ordering them, but they totally delivered! They were so good! I loved my meal! It was so good! My family enjoyed their meals as well. They also had cafe lattes and hot chocolates, which both looked good to plus they each ordered dessert which they were all into as well. Overall, the 5 of us were made up with our meals. I'd happily eat here again and I highly recommend it! TIP: Go for lunch for the nice lunch specials which are only 5-7 pounds; the main meals are about 15 pounds.
