Service can not be faulted they opened a tab an the table never went dry all night, great service
The man here is very good at maths. Would come again.
Friendly bar, helpful service, liked the beer selection. Bit dark inside for this time of year, probably better when it's dark outside too.
28/07/19 - I am an avid extra dry martini drinker. Barman, Ryan made sure I was well served. this man is a true asset to the establishment. In a foreign bar to me I am always a little hesitant as I have had many-a bad martini but Ryan has it right, without even saying knew a twist over an olive was the way to go with gin.
When my gin of choice was not available, he was knowledgeable on substitutes that may suit my palette and work well in a martini. beyond that, he personally delivered my parties' drinks to the table follows by a kaftan of water and iced glasses, a service seldom seen outside of cocktail bars in London. Granted, this was early evening before the Saturday night rush.
We departed the venue due to the anachronistic loud music of early evening disallowing us to converse or even order drinks without hanging over the bar and yelling.
Despite this, a bartender with as much time as Ryan was not found anywhere else in Chester, which resulted in my party returning to this venue. I am pleased we did. despite it being race day, the quality of music played was incredible, a good mix of old and new to suit all tastes.
My only criticism is the garnish on the martini. As a drink it is inherently understated, so an ostentatious garnish is superfluous. A martini is about substance rather than superficialities.
I visit Chester regularly, and drink martinis/Bollinger even more often, I hope you guys invest in him.
Oh, and ventilation in the loos need dramatic improvement! The latrines at Glastonbury are more pleasant than these.
Amazing place with impressive cocktails. The bar staff here are really friendly and helpful with drink choices. They have a good variety of gins and they know there stuff.
