Now reopened after what seems like a long period of closure. It's about as central as can be but still difficult to find, nestling in a yard behind the handsome St. Peter's church that overlooks the crossing point of Chester's 15th century shopping streets. The yard is accessed by 2 narrow alleys that go either side of the church.
The pub is thoroughly refurbished and can be desribed as stylish and contemporary. a lobby leads you to 2 front rooms and 2 back rooms, although this distinction is blurred as it's pretty open plan. The bar is to the right and has access from the front and back right hand rooms of the pub. Polished floors, whitewashed walls and leather sofas abound, although period wallpaper and a handsome central staircase (presumably part of the hotel) add a rustic touch.
Ostensibly it seems to be a Stonehouse brewery place, with their beermats on every table. However the Stonehouse Bitter was complemented by Weetwood Cheshire Cat and Bomabardier, the latter served behind a curious metallic font that I can only assume is trying to attract 'yoof' over from their nitrofizz. Cheshire Cat was excellent, and at �2.60 seemed reasonable- you expect to pay more in these kind of places.
Two real fires burned in the front rooms which was a major plus point for me and brought character to what may otherwise have been a stark environment.
It's not usually my kind of place but I found it strangely enjoyable, and it's certainly an improvement considering the lenghth of closure. Not a must but the beer is good and if you've done the rest it's definitely worth a visit.
