Neighbourhood is located on Northgate Street, within Chester’s Roman city walls, in a prime high street position in the heart of the city centre. The property sits amongst other hospitality and retail outlets, a stone's throw from the city's cathedral.
Chester has a multitude of attractions and cultural experiences that appeal to visitors: It is the home of Britain's oldest racecourse, its largest Roman Amphitheatre and its oldest and longest Roman city walls. Four of the city’s main shopping streets are lined with the 700-year-old ‘Chester Rows’ (two-tiered, timber covered galleries) whilst just outside the city is Chester Zoo, the most visited tourist attraction outside of London.
Chester is easily accessible from Liverpool and Manchester and is a hub for a number of major roads including the M53 to the Wirral, the M56 to Manchester and the A55 to North Wales.
This double-fronted property holds a mid terrace position on a busy street. The left-hand side of the property occupies the ground floor only whilst the right-hand side of the building extends to three storeys. It is of brick construction, and it is apparent that the internal décor and furnishings have been subject to much investment in recent years. The internal staircase is Grade II listed (list entry number 1376363), this is the only part of the premises which falls under the listing.

Ladies' and gentlemen's toilets to the rear of the trade area.
To the left is a smaller trade area with tile/wood flooring, French doors opening onto the street and loose and fixed bench seating for 20 covers. This area can be closed off for private parties and events. There is the possibility to convert this area of the property into a takeaway zone.
