Visited in November, the menu advertises vegan but infect items are cooked with meat produce so I was limited what I could have. So a little disappointed. What we did eat was lovely, the have Budvar on tap too 👌🏻

We really loved our visit to Atina Kitchen - it's a cute bistro-style venue with plenty of delicious cocktails and food to choose from. The staff were really friendly and helpful, and the menu catered for gluten free and veggie/vegan options. I can't wait to visit again

Fabulous visit to Atina Kitchen. Such a warm welcome the staff were lovely. The menu isn’t massive but there is a choice for everyone. The hummus is the best starter along with the prawns. For main course as a vegetarian I chose the roasted cauliflower and sprouts OMG congratulations to the chef it was incredible. Don’t eat at home.,. Visit Atina kitchen it is home from home

Went last night for dinner. There's some really lovely dishes on the menu and very well presented on the plate. Suitable for meat eaters, vegetarians and vegans.
The staff were really friendly and the decor is lovely. Would definitely recommend this restaurant.

Really nice breakfast. Only reason not to get full 5 stars is the price. £2.80 for 2 slices of toast without any butter or jam! Food was lovely, especially the French toast. And they cater well for children/toddlers.

Excellent Service!
Chicken Wing starter - in the words of Craig Revel Horwood - FAB U LOUS, get the soy, ginger and sesame sauce!
Hot Mulled Apple - one of the best hot drinks I’ve had in a loooooooong time!
Highly recommend to everyone!

Never had a bad meal here. They do the best breakfasts ever and the staff are friendly and attentive. Whether you are a local or a tourist, go and search this little gem out.

This is easily my favourite place to eat at, in Chester (and for a fair distance away, too!). I always had delicious vegetarian food from here, with lots to choose from, and since I turned vegan a few years ago, it's still been an absolute joy eating here. The staff are lovely, the place itself is really nice to spend some time in, and the prices are decent. Very well worth a visit (or twelve).

Happened upon this lovely spot on our last night in the UK. After a stressful hunt for fuel Atina provided the perfect amount of relaxation. Friendly, sufficiently attentive staff, excellent food and good wine in a safe atmosphere without feeling clinical. So glad we didn't plump for the restaurants in the main strip. Will recommend to anyone heading that way

We called asking for a very short notice reservation and they were able to fit us in along with giving is a seat where we wanted. The staff were lovey, happy to have a good conversation with, and the food came very quick and cooked nicely. I ordered a drink I hadn't tried and didn't like it, they took if off the bill and got me a new drink without me asking. Amazing atmosphere, very kind staff and a great experience. Would highly recommend.

What can i say , what a little gem of a find. From the moment we entered to the moment we left loved every second of the experience. We had a wonderful singing waiter who looked after us very well, the food was… out of this world and the milkshakes made me giggle with delight. A little piece of heaven 🥰 you guys should be very proud of the wonderful little happy place you have created xxxx

I saw a queue outside Golden Arches after being in Atina for their delightful Highlander breakfast. Haggis under pouched eggs. Do people not realise what wonderful brilliant independents are just a stones throw away? Ps The courtyard is an oasis.

Managed to get a table here last night for 5 people. The set up is really informal which I really liked as it gave a very homely feel to the restaurant. The food was amazing, starters were a little expensive for the size of them but food overall was fantastic. Staff were really friendly too. Will definitely be back next time I'm in Chester.

We had breakfast. I had the Atina. It had a little bit of everything, actually a lot. The food was cooked perfectly and taste was amazing. Certainly a five star place in my book. Staff was busy but very nice and polite...seems to be standard in England. Don't walk by...it's worth the stop.

After only living in Chester for a few months, I´ve somehow walked past this place several times with much curiosity. It´s one of those places that you just can´t quite put your finger on. The decor is an eclectic mix of italian bits and bobs and their posters outside offer ¨theme nights¨ which is normally something that I steer clear from...

But Atina is a place that came up time and time again on several internet searchs for a decent brunch in Chester. So with the reviews of many, and my love of breakfast in the afternoon, I gave Atina a go. This has been one of the best decisions I could

Wow! There is a special kind of arrogance from the waitstaff. The food is going to have to be extraordinary to make up for the attitude.

Staying in Chester for the weekend, we decided to walk into town and get some "brunch" - but we're keen to eat healthy so these days this can be a challenge! Not here tho, the Atina Kitchen is a 5-star jewel in the crown which we happily stumbled across. But next time, we'll make sure we come here on purpose. From the warm welcome we received, to the quirky menu (enclosed in a National Geographical Mag!!) and the excellent quality of food, everything was fab. Just one point, you might need to book ahead during busy moments. Fresh coffee, orange juice and a good plate of food

Loved this place so much! everything from the service to the atmosphere was amazing. the food was delicious. I had the eggs benedict florentine and I savored every last bite. I also had the fried gnocchi as a starter and that was great! I would definitely recommend.

Popped into this cafe on the spare of the moment for an early lunch. It was a raceday at Chester so everywhere was going to be busy. Despite this, they had tables available and we were promptly seated.

I ordered a 3 egg omelette with mushrooms and spinach served with some sweet potato fries. I can't fault the food at all, everything was tasty and ingredients seemed to be of high quality. My friend had a burger which was nicely cooked and presented - with a steak knife holding it together like a dagger.

They brought us a bottle of chilled tap water for no charge, and I also had a filter

OK I'm shocked with myself that i have somehow not written this review until now.
This place is hard to beat. The food in one word is "Awesome". I have eaten in here numerous times and brought many friends in to eat too. They run an all day breakfast menu with everything you would expect including haggis and waffles. The main menu has what I feel maybe the best pulled pork 'Manwhich' I can recall ever tasting.
Prices are average for a Chester city centre cafe/restaurant but quality is far superior.
Staff are all amazing a chefs are very knowledgeable and inventive, creating

This coffee and tea room has got a prime location in Chester city centre near to Argos and Woolworths. It has been a round for a good few years now and is frequented by those who like good coffee and good food. My favourite here is the brie and cranberry baguettes but I've been here for breakfast too and it serves a good veggie breakfast if you are that way inclined! I've been here when thee just isn't any space to sit but it's worth a shot as you won't be disappointed. It's called The Gallery of course as it has its wall adorned with local artists' work which
