I can highly recommend - Hickorys Smokehouse if you like American steakhouse type of food

It's reasonably priced , great location on the waterfront with parking and the food is gorgeous

Hiya,

A place called Oddfellows is great for Cocktails! Food's not too bad there either. Can't get a link to website due to bad signal at the moment sorry.
Have a good time, Chester is lovely

Hey! I'm 8 miles from lovely Chester!
Where are you staying? I can give you some ideas for eating etc.

Hickory's is loooovely right on the river dee too

Blackhouse Grill is nice but we were disappointed with our last meal there

The Chesterfields is a lovely country pub, but it's about a 10-15 mins drive from City Centre depending on where you're staying.

The Architect by the racecourse is a nice pub.

Asia Fusion is nice if you fancy an Indian

Depending on what you're after.... Off the Wall is cheap drinks. (Sports bar during the day) then music on at night, can get very busy but normally a good atmosphere. Cocktails 2 for £6.50 (I think)

If you want a nightclub - there is 'Cruise' just down from Off the Wall. You also have a Pitcher and Piano down there too.

The Church is a nice place to drink (a converted church)

I'll post if I think of any others. Have fun. You'll live Chester xxx we're off again at Easter. Can't wait xxx

I was thinking Church, The Chester Fields, The Commercial, Oddfellows - although I haven't been there for ages - or down Watergate Street (Havana etc)

Oooo yes I quite like Watergate Street Never been to The Commercial I don't think. Where's that? X

The Commercial is tucked away....if you go from the Cross up a few metres into Northgate street there is a narrow passageway up a few stone steps into St Peter's square; you can also get to it from Watergate rows.

Duttons in Godstall Lane is good too.

Oh I think I know, does it have an open fire in? I think we have been there, it's a pub isn't it?

Oh yes, Duttons and the one opposite, is it called The Living Room? XxX

[dandelionpoppy]

Yes to both, although the Living Room has closed, and will re-open as Botanical when work is finished.
The Commercial has a restaurant, too.
Rufus Court is good too...about 10 minutes walk from there. I used to go to Alexander's jazz club there, again haven't been for ages!

Ah we're off to the racecourse today there's a food and drink festival on, woohoo! Bring on the drinks! Lol

Tomorrow we're off to The Chester Fields pub. Lovely place for next time you're up. It's a little drive, about 15 mins, but well worth it. I'll take some pictures tomorrow and post them on here foe you to show you it.

Here's a pic of the Dee yesterday, was very busy!



We're back up here 13th-17th August, we're bringing my nephews for a little break away So we're staying in a hotel that time. As we normally stay with my Fiancé's Mum.
It's going to be a busy few days in August with a 4 and 9 year old lol

I'm looking for a place to stay in Chester, were you happy with the accommodation? Is there parking to be had?
