Whether family members are dropping by before Michaelmas ends or you’re getting together with friends before going home for the holidays finding the perfect pub in Chester is essential. In this blog, we’re looking at three of the cities cosiest watering holes around Christmas.
The Bear & Billet
Located on Lower Bridge Street, the Bear & Billet is a half-timbered building with old-school charm. Close to the river Dee and the city walls it’s an ideal base for wintry walks. Tardis-like, it’s deceptively spacious inside with seating areas and bars spread across three different floors. It also offers the homely comfort of a wood-burning stove.
The Olde Cottage
One of several fine pubs on Brook Street, the Olde Cottage is a popular haunt for festive gatherings in the city. During the coldest months of the year, it regularly presents guests with a roaring open fire and serves up real ale on tap at affordable prices.
The Cross Keys
Easy to find on Duke Street, the Cross Keys is an excellent choice for a winter warmer. It’s oak panelled interior and stained-glass windows create a cosy environment, while its folk music nights and log burner give it a festive flair.
