Real ale discount scheme

A former coaching inn and the oldest continuously licensed premises in Chester. Heavily oak-beamed main bar room with rugs on wood-effect flooring. Nicely partitioned into distinct areas, with exemplary lighting adding to the historic ambience. Separate rooms, with an airier feel, are adjacent. The cellar is the location for the only micro-brewery within the walls of Chester. These are served from handpumps at the side of the bar but are not cheap despite their provenance. Traditional, high quality pub meals containing locally sourced ingredients, available all day. Beer garden is a boon in warm weather. 10% CAMRA discount on beer and joining the Regulars Club earns 10% discount on food as well.

Historic Interest

11th C coaching inn, oldest continuously licensed premises in Chester, haunted.
