About

This is a proper old city of London boozer, only in Chester, that has a really good reputation for its food - it's a great meeting place over a pub lunch, and at different times you'll find half the commercial and professional heart of the city in there. It's a very social place with a lovely clubby atmosphere, and you're pretty much bound to meet someone interesting.
