Reviews in Chester

Was there on Nov 27th for my husbands 50th birthday, we came across the place by chance and how lucky were we, what a wonderful atmosphere, the food was fantastic and the staff were very friendly and welcoming and nothing was to much trouble would definitely go there again and would recommend it to anyone

l visited this restaurant one Saturday for lunch. What an unexpected surprise. The food was excellent, very fresh and reasonably priced. A very busy place but well worth the wait.

this is undoubtedly the best restaurant in Chester all the food is cooked fresh using fresh ingredients,all the staff are extremely friendly and the atmosphere is excellent .if you want a good meal at reasonable prices La fattoria will not disappoint in any way

Our 3 course lunch with a sugarvine offer was served as perfectly as they would serve dinner to a high-rolling guest. OK the portions are a little 'delicate' but the presentation is superb and the flavours on a grand scale.

Met up with a friend of 60 plus years! Introduced her to MC's. Loved the Manchester restaurant so thought she would appreciate...and she did. Fantastic location and seeing as we only meet up a couple of times a year a special treat for us. Great staff, not too formal, hit the right note. FABULOUS!!

fantastic food, excellent service. with a wide variety of tastes to please any gastronome.

I recommend changing the letter 'p' with one four positions later in the alphabet for this particular restaurant. Nice work on the bar but the kitchen is yet to deliver anything resembling acceptable or worth going back for. I recommend giving this one a wide berth.

Dined at oddfellows on Saturday evening pre dinner cocktails were great and the food was also spot on, service was friendly and we thoroughly enjoyed our evening and will definitely be back again soon

This is the best good quality restaurant i have ever been to i highly recommend it and also fantastic prices

Dined at Oddfellows, Chester last week with friends, food and service was fab and the atmosphere was good considering it was midweek. We enjoyed drinks outside after the meal and was lovely to have table service outside and not have to keep going to the bar. Cant wait for our next visit

Have had take-away twice from Cherry Valley and both times found it to be OK but no more. Fairly pricey considering the quality.

.....I visited this Cafe! for the second time the other day,to call this a Cafe is so wrong, true they have a huge diner style menu but the daily specials are so interesting; removed from the usual pan fried sea bass stuff, I had a Moroccan Harria dish, must be the best food I have eaten in years. My wife Clam Chowder she said - 'more please'. Just wanted to say Thanks to the staff who must rate as the most friendly in Chester. See you guys again soon.Pete/Kelly Knowles

The Blackhouse Grill in Chester is a gem of a restaurant. Great selection of food cooked to perfection, tremendous service, in a lively bustling atmosphere. A great selection of wines means that the Blackhouse Grill has everything you need for a perfect meal out in Chester.... I have been on many occasions and even on Mondays and Tuesdays the place is buzzing and the it is a really good night.

The Gunnery is my new favourite place to eat! I had the special boar main course which wouldn't have been out of place on the Grosvenor menu. Brilliant!

My boyfriend and I came here last week on a visit to Chester - one of the best restaurant concepts I've ever encountered! The hot and cold buffet was absolutely delicious, and the servings of meat were of very high quality, tender and juicy - perfect. There were ten rounds of meat although I had to refuse three servings towards the end because I'd filled up at the buffet, the food was so good! Great atmosphere, friendly helpful staff and as much food as you could possibly eat. We loved it and will definitely be returning!

Very friendly service and excellent value for money. We went for our anniversary and the food was amazing and great size portions but quality wasn't compromised. Depth of flavour and fresh ingredients, highly recommended, we will return to this restaurant soon.

A total disappointment! Unfortunately I had an awful experience at this place. The place is indeed cute, with a nice interior and the location alongside the canal is ideal for a nice lunch. However, I found it dirty and the managers behaviour was a total disgrace: I found him rude, patronising, unreasonable and totally unprofessional! I was upset leaving the place and I am 6 months pregnant - he has no idea how to talk to people. He actually stuck his finger in my food to try to prove to me that I was wrong that it wasn't very hot, and then expected me to eat it after that, because he was definitely refusing to give me a refund, for a £6 omelette. He actually told me he was a millionaire and had no time for my comments, even though I was perfectly polite. Nice location or not, it is the people that make a place. Slow service, cold food and then nasty attitudes, from the management, made this the worst dining experience I have ever had. My advice to potential customers: either don't go, or at least ask for a receipt and DO NOT PAY until after you have been served. A total disappointment!

four of us went 6 march 2010 and had a memorable dining experience, great food in a great restaurant served by great staff, no more needs to be said
