Places to Eat in Chester

This quaint little city offers a lot when it comes to the food front. No matter where you head you will find a café, restaurant or brasserie down little lanes and major roads. So during your weekend you won’t be short on finding somewhere impressive for a bite to eat! See our best restaurants in Chester for more detail on the best places to dine in!

For something really impressive and memorable for a meal before your night out. Opera Grill will be the place to go. Located inside a Grade II listed building, this restaurant can offer you a variety of different grill dishes. With an interior that’s just as impressive as its exterior, they also have live music in the evening too so make sure you book a table!

Italian is another thing Chester does well, no matter where you are in the city you’ll be a short walk away from a restaurant serving your pizzas and pastas. Some of our favourite Italians are Piccolino and Sergios, both extremely different but equally as amazing. For your finer dining experience head to Piccolino but if you’re after something authentic, family run Sergios is your best bet!

Watergate Street

Packed with chilled-out bars and pubs, this street is a great place to meet up and start the celeb­ra­tions. Watergate Street can provide you with the ultimate pub/bar crawl that is perfect for a night out. Right on the end, you’ll find the busy and bustling Bar Lounge and its outdoor space, great for summer lounging. Wander just a little further up and you’ll stumble across Ye Olde Custom House for fresh pints, and Kuckoo if you want loud rock music and impressive cocktails

Hoole

If you’re staying outside of the city centre, chances are you’re around the Hoole area. With a train station in the centre and a few things worth a visit, Hoole also boasts some great bars to try if you fancy venturing out of the centre.

One of the most popular places to hang out is The Suburbs, an edgy cocktail bar that offers up concoctions that will blow your mind – and might even convert the beer drinkers amongst you! While you’re in Hoole, check out some of the classic pubs like Bromfield Arms and The Royal Oak for some great ales and nice vibes.

Lower Bridge Street

Down here is where Chester really breaks off from the rest of the UK, with uber cool pubs that you won’t find anywhere else. One of the most haunted pubs in Britain Ye Olde Kings Head is an experience in itself whether you want a cold beer or some back story and character. The same can be said for the Bear and Billet, so if you’re looking for a pub crawl this is the area for you.

Pepper & St John Street

Down near Pepper Street you’ll find a collection of restaurants if you want a bite to eat and nestled in between is The Church bar. Built into an old Church this bar is a popular draw for young people, with live music and eye-catching décor. Aound the corner is St John’s Street, which is probably most popular for Cruise nightclub.

Cruise was born in Chester, and offers three floors of themes, music and bars for the ultimate night out. If you’re more of a bar & chat kind of group, head across the road from Cruise down into Red Door, a cool bar that serves strong drinks – we suggest the Breaking Badass!
