CHEZ JULES REVIEWS

Visited here on a Friday evening, the food was delicious and there is a good selection of wines. We were slightly disappointed with the service as we waited a long time for plates to be cleared between courses and we needed to walk to the register to ask for and pay the bill. Aside from that or was a lovely experience. There are several car parks to choose from that are all a short walk which was convenient.

Excellent service and very friendly. Made our anniversary very special. Lovely food and great atmosphere. Wouldn't have gone anywhere else for the occasion.

Lovely place, helpful staff and a varied menu. The food was great and the vegetables were perfect for the 2 of us to share. Looking forward to a future visit.

COTE BRASSERIE CHESTER REVIEWS

Great food, lovely staff, great atmosphere. It’s a very convenient place for romantic dates as well. They have been so kind that they offered us drinks on my birthday. We enjoy their duck every time. They also have a very tasty onion soup. This place has much wider space than it looks from outside. Proper for big group meetings including company dinners.

Five stars all around, went for my third year anniversary with my partner and it was amazing. The food was incredible, the scallops start and duck main in particular. Malv(u?) was also wonderful, so nice and welcoming also makes a mean raspberry mojito that’s dangerously good! All round great experience, can’t wait to return!!

Lovely birthday meal. Had the fixed price menu and was highly impressed. The room has lovely architecture with exposed walls and beams. Waiter was very attentive. Would definitely come again.

BRASSERIE ABODE REVIEWS

Went here for the evening with work colleagues and was impressed food was lovely and plentiful and the service was exemplary, beautiful views really enjoyed it will definitely be back.

The restaurant is on the 5th floor of the building over looking Chester race course. Amazing service and food. Very friendly and professional staff. Good price and superb location.

Really great place, food is amazing and the service was excellent. Although I only popped in for a quick poo.
