The Mount Inn

Head up The Mount and you'll find yourself in one of Chester's most unpretentious drinking spots. This is the kind of place where regulars have their usual seat and the staff know your name by your second visit—no faffing about with craft cocktails or Instagram-baiting presentations. You're here for decent ales, lager that's been kept properly, and the sort of atmospheric that only comes from years of doing the basics right. The Mount Inn doesn't need gimmicks. It's the pub you wish was at the end of your street.
