I remember it as the tap for Deva brewery but that is long gone although the place is pretty much as it was internally. As the outside suggests it is long and thin with the counter at the far end and a large patio at the turret end of the building although as said it is beside the Chester inner ring road. A good selection of mainly Ossett beers when I dropped in on the way to the station, it is very close. My Electronic Rat wasn’t up to the standard I expected or what I have had here previously.

A strange building with a turret and tucked besides two very busy roads,the long thin exterior breaks into two sections both with basic rough wood and scaffolding pole type furniture with the bar at the rear end.It has an ale house,boozer vibe inside while outside there is a generous decked beer terrace with high fencing and good awnings making a pleasing drinking area in good weather.
Just three handpumps drawing on my visit Stonehouse Equinox,Osset Cascade and White Rat (great,NBSS 4.5) with a larger selection of craft keg from 9 taps with some exotic and high ABV brews.4 ciders on offer too.It's 2023 GBG listed which seems about right.
A good crawl venue but lacking charm,a functional stop but not quite a destination pub.Beware of the 4pm opening Mon-Thur.

I remember this place being called Kash the last time I visited in 2013. Convenient for Chester railway station (especially if your train is delayed), it is long and narrow place split into different sections. I sat at a table next to the bar which is at the far end from the main entrance. Toilets are upstairs.
Ossett White Rat is the regular ale. Guests on my Sunday evening visit were Hafod Sunrise & Stonehouse Shifting Sands. Ciders were from Rosie's - Triple D & Wicked Wasp. Craft options were Polly's Rosebud, SALT Huckaback & Magic Rock Salty Kiss.
