At first sight, I arrive in Hooton at around 10pm one Friday evening to find the bar closed. Disappointed but ready for the day to come I ignore and return back to the hotel the following evening. The bar is alive with the 60th birthday party of someone present. At kids are [...]

Crabwell Manor Hotel Bar
Standing up at the bar in some kind of badly fashioned queue, in a room that feels much like the clubhouse of a golf club, the much talked about Bar at Crabwell Manor House Hotel in Chester is embarrassing, degrading and for lack of a better word, appalling. The selection behind the [...]

The Shropshire Arms
The Shropshire Arms is a very bad take on a traditional pub turned Gastro. The main thing about a successful modern pub is ensuring that the clients match the decor and in this case the error is plain to see, the occupants are a cheap and brutish crowd, the old mouthy locals that [...]

Meze Bar and Restaurant
Calling a bar by a name that even its bouncers cant pronounce is never a good idea, but it sets the scene for a place where the venue is a little twisted and the crowds thinks they know best. This two unit, double decker venue on the upper shelf of Chester’s town centre [...]
