Bishop Lloyd's, Chester

Blue Scrumpy left this review about Bishop Lloyd's

Bishop Lloyd's was a bit of a random choice for our crawl of Chester. It would have been one of the first couple of pubs I would have dropped if we had been struggling for time, but with the Cavern of the Curious Gnome closed for a refurbishment, this was an interesting place to visit.

The bar can be found on the upper floor of an old building on Watergate Row. It features a single room with a little further seating in the outdoor passageway.

The bar has a single handpull dispensing Rosie's Triple D cider, whilst keg beers are all from Chester's Beers - Deva IPA, Newgate Blonde, Northgate Bitter & Watergate Porter.

I should really have gone for the porter, but succumbed to a cider. It was certainly nice to have a drink in one of Chester's historic buildings and there was a bustling atmosphere here with good views of shoppers and other pedestrians in the street below.

I wouldn't rule out a return visit.
