Brewhouse & Kitchen - Chester

You'll find this sprawling brewpub perfectly positioned on Love Street, and it's become the sort of place that works whether you're after a proper Sunday roast with the family or drinks with mates after work. The brewing tanks gleaming behind the bar aren't just for show – they're turning out some genuinely good ales and lagers that you won't find elsewhere. The kitchen takes pub food seriously without getting precious about it. Think beer-battered fish that actually showcases the batter, burgers that don't collapse when you pick them up, and sharing plates that make sense. The space itself strikes that tricky balance between polished and welcoming – high ceilings and industrial touches but with enough warmth that you'll want to settle in for the evening.
