| If anyone in your company likes a G&T this is definately not the pup for you. The new (less than a year I think) will not buy a lemon ! I have witnesssed numerous customers leaving the premises because of this. b_beattie - 13 Aug 2011 09:24 |
| Originally a 13th century building, it apparently fell in to disrepair and was renovated by the Samuel Smith’s Brewery among others back in the ‘70s. They’ve done a good job and this is now a decent pub just on the edge of one of the main shopping areas. The main bar feels suitably “olde worlde” with a burnt cream colour scheme, polished wood floor, plenty of thick beams on the ceiling, stone support pillars, leaded windows and an old fireplace. The other bar is similar decor and has a bigger fireplace with a massive wooden lintel across it. There is also a carpeted area off of this. Being a Samuel Smith’s pub, as usual the only cask beer was their own Old Brewery Bitter. The solitary cider was their Cider Reserve. Service was rather slow on a recent busy lunchtime, with just one barmaid trying to serve all the punters at both bars. Blackthorn - 15 Jul 2011 19:25 |
| Nice pint of Sam Smith's in here and another unusual and pleasant building. The only pub I've ever been in where someone came round offering us homemade fairy cakes. Bit bizarre but added to the character of the place. beerface - 4 May 2011 11:42 |
| Nice looking place with very cheap beer. Sam Smiths isn't my favourite, but it's okay, certainly value for money anyway. Last time I went in there was a tramp sat nearby who stank of piss, but assuming this is a rarity, I'd recommend this place for a swift cheap pint. Northern_Ale_Monkey - 2 Mar 2011 17:50 |
| Fine building set on a corner and housing a Sam Smith's establishment. There are a number of drinking areas and food seemed to be popular. Old Brewery Bitter was available on handpull. Other than that, they have the usual Sam Smiths range at the usual cheap prices. Certainly one to try if in Chester. blue_scrumpy - 23 Jan 2011 13:42 |
