Blue Scrumpy left this review about The Cornerhouse
Sister pub to the Cellar, this was another new Chester pub for me on our Saturday visit. The split-level interior is more comfortable and larger than the Cellar and whilst the beer range is more limited than its counterpart, the range was large enough for my liking. Posh bar snacks are offered and there is a CAMRA discount from Sunday through to Thursday. Board games are available to play.
Mobberley Cornerhouse Best & Salopian Oracle are the regular beers. Guests were Storm Brewing Force 10 & ShinDigger Pale. Craft beers were Vault City Strawberry Sundae, Duration Crisps & Arbor Mosaic. Unlike the Cellar, there is no real cider. My Force 10 was a nice porter.
Good Beer Guide listed. This one is worth a visit if passing. Although it wouldn't be top of my list for a re-visit.

Plush building on route from station to town and a little upmarket but with character

Strongers . left this review about The Cornerhouse
The Cornerhouse is an upmarket pub with a mock Tudor frontage on the outskirts of the city centre. With wooden flooring and exposed brick walls throughout, the bar area is located to the left of the entrance where a serving counter across the rear supports a craft keg selection alongside Peroni and Asahi. There are also four hand pumps that were drawing Titanic’s Classic Mild and Plum Porter as well as Salopian’s Deep State and Oracle. The Porter was on good form at £2.50 for a half. Down a couple of steps to the right is a seating area with a small stage and piano in the right rear corner, I think the regular live music advertised for Friday and Saturday evenings will be solo and duet acts rather than full bands. There is a quiz on Sundays to recover from the weekend action and a pizza menu is available. I thought it was OK in here, but I wouldn’t make a special trip, so I think a return visit isn’t on the cards unless I stay in Boughton again.
