About

Welcome! Chester’s new market offers a vibrant selection of produce and goods together with a fantastic choice of authentic global foods all under one roof. The driving force behind the new market has been to create a ‘modern traditional market’ in a welcoming and inclusive space for everyone to enjoy – where you really can shop local and eat global. Open 6 days a week throughout the day and evening, with a choice of seating areas, inside and al fresco, natural light, stylish oak stalls, fully accessible and with a brand new 800-space car park next door. Awards have included for best Social Space in the Northern Design Awards, a Taste of Cheshire award from Marketing Cheshire and a Market Industry Trade Award for Best New Market.

More Bars & Breweries in Chester

Turtle Bay Chester Bar
At Turtle Bay, we bring the soul of the Caribbean to your table. Savour bold, fresh dishes inspired by the islands, from warming curries to vibrant small plates bursting with flavour. Our iconic jerk pit is where fresh ingredients are marinated for 24 hours in our signature jerk rub, then expertly flame-grilled for that irresistible smoky taste. Whether you're here for a relaxed meal, a celebratory Bottomless Brunch, or a quick bite, every dish is packed with Caribbean spirit. Pair it with our handcrafted 2-4-1 cocktails – your passport to tropical shores. Step inside, soak up the island vibes, and let us take you on a journey of soul food, sunshine, and good times.
Chester Picturehouse Bar
Amidst the hustle and bustle of Chester Northgate, wander your way into Chester Picturehouse: a treat of a cinema boasting six screens and a café-bar, not to mention a stunning mural created exclusively for us by artist Murugiah that'll greet you when you arrive. The cinema's dazzling interior design, in enviable shades of pink and blue, gently nods to the perfectly pastel-hued worlds of one of our favourite filmmakers, Wes Anderson – and we've paid just as much careful attention to our Chester home as he does to all his films.
