Butchers Arms, Chester Le Street

A Marston's house, with a choice of seven ales on handpump. The pub interior is traditional in style and has a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. The interior consists of a horseshoe shaped lounge and bar. There is a collection of porcelain plates of various sizes and designs, displayed on shelves around the walls. The upholstered bench seating along the outer walls, had a collection of decorative cushions scattered around. The bar area was original dark mahogany and the pub was carpeted throughout. I went for the Jennings Cocker Hoop, which was in good shape and prices in here were reasonable.

Nice friendly pub with good beer
