Ian Mapp left this review about The Chester Tavern
Terraced pub on a main road. Looks like its been a pub since the mid C19th and recently refurbed to a high standard in 2021. Really have to want to go there, as out of town and not really near other premises - although a 10 minute walk from the Station (in the other direction to town).
Good beer selection - with four cask, several kegs all changing frequently. 15 LA/NA beers also available on a list.
Real selling point is the entertainment in an upstairs room. I was watching the top 40 folk 2023 albums (I am cliche man) and was alterted to Gaz Brookfield being #1. A quick glance at his tour schedule and I saw he was playing a (sold out) show here.
What finally got me to make the pilgrimage was the monthly comedy - 4 acts for a tenner in an upstairs room (with bar)( holding around 50 punters? Top billing was Andrew Bird, who has toured extensively with Michael McIntyre/Russell Howard and others and has won Comics Comic of the year 2023. Playing upstairs in a Kiddy pub.
What's not to like.
Great to see a community pub so busy.
Sure to be back next month.
