Bar Lounge
There's no better place to be than, the roof off, cocktails on the terrace and bites & boards in the restaurant. You can book a table online & we do leave some tables for walk-ins. We hope to see you soon. Our bartenders have combined their knowledge, creativity & passion to create a unique selection of cocktails.

We can't wait for you to try them. We've got everyone's favourites, including bang bang cauliflower & those stick baby sausages, plus some of our comforting classic mains are back alongside some exciting new dishes!. Classic Caesar Salad (v) little gem hearts, Gran Moravia, sour dough croutons, soft boiled egg & Caesar aioli.

Came for boxing day lunch with parents/grandparents. The waitresses were excellent, attentive (without being annoying) and brilliantly patient with our elderly relatives. The food was super and everyone left very happy. Also lovely festive ambience! Thank you very much.

If you're in Chester you have to give this place a visit. Firstly it's really well laid out and the staff are brilliant. Super friendly and attentive without being over the top. The food is great and the small bites mixer menu is heaven... 10 out of 10 from my wife and I..

Went for a meal on Saturday 23rd Oct 2021 and loved it! The food was amazing, and the service from everyone was great, (especially Lewis).
There was a single hair in my wife's steak, which we said could be hers, but they took it away and replaced it without question, along with a new portion of fries.
Really glad I went, and will be returning.

BarLounge Chester was a great find. All the staff were welcoming and friendly. The food we ordered was amazing. I was particularly impressed with my vegetarian selection from
the bites menu. Our evening was made even more special by Anna who presented us with 2 glasses of bubbles at the end of our meal as I had mentioned it was our Wedding Anniversary. It was a perfect evening. Thank you.

Love coming to Barlounge for good some good nibbles and cocktails with friends. This occasion were more special as it was my best friend's birthday. Even though the evening didn't start off so well with one of the unprofessional staff regarding the cooking but thankfully another colleague could rectify the issue. We got seated in the bar area and couldn't have been a better place for us. We were looked after by May who was amazing and made the occasion more special for us. She was friendly professional and very attentive, then after that we had Ben looking after us which the same he was very friendly

If a place is as busy as BarLounge was when we went you've got to ask yourself why. In our case it was because they provided really nice food and cocktails with attentive service from friendly staff at a really affordable price. Definitely will go again next time we're in Chester.

Great place weather poor wind and rain horrific
but stayed a night or 2 in Chester and Bar lounge was recommended by our hotel and WHAT A RECOMMENDATION!!!
great food fantastically presented,great selection of drinks (most certainly whisky)👌.
We were obviously with current climate sitting outdoors but every table on the outer perimeter
had its own heater and every table had a great blanket provided everything about the Bar Lounge was customer first .
Music was music (sorry my opinion)
the staff were well presented polite even when extremely busy always looking if you need a top up etc

If you are in Chester and want some great food then this is your place. It's a venue with a pub/restaurant feel providing inside and covered-outdoor seating options. It rains a lot in Chester so being able to sit outside under cover in a spacious area is a plus. Lots of high top tables around. Wait staff was a hit and miss. We started with a young girl who was ridiculous but when the fella took over for us, it was much better. (The first waitress wasn't rude. She just wasn't attentive ... at all. lol)


Squared away with seating, beers, and mixed drinks we started ordering

I like this spot, I came here a few years ago when visiting family and was back again last weekend.

We came here after being at Telfords, there's obviously a price difference as you're now on the main strip of bars but the drinks were costy for me as I'm thinking in dollars but the locals I was with said they were on the higher end. However back in California I live by all the fancy cocktail places and you know you're paying for a nice atmosphere, a good crowd, great music and strong drinks!

We arrived to Bar Lounge around 10:30pm on a Saturday night and the place was rocking

Visited bar lounge on a whim last night the decor is beautiful, loved the fact I could sit outside in December and feel like I was in my living room! The food was excellent, my partner had the sea bass with cauliflower cheese... (Let's put it this way - there was absolutely nothing left) I had the Caesar salad and a side of chips. The food had so much taste and was completely fresh. Our waiter was so polite and made us feel extremely welcome. If I'm ever in and around chester again ill be making sure I put in a visit.

On a corner plot, adjacent to a main road and on the outside of the city centre is the Bar Lounge. This place has a great atmosphere, even before you get into the bar, the outside space features a large number of booth and other type seating, all under an awning to protect you from the English weather, with large heaters that really kick out some heat - a great space. Inside is a copiously stocked bar packed with a vast range of spirits, the more unusual looking bottles tempting you to try them. The inside area isn't huge, there are a few seats, particularly at the end which are adorned with

Very well funished with a great outdoor area..big chuncky comfortable seats outside with heaters on cold evenings. The girls and myself love our cocktails and had a charming young man take our drinks orders each time from out tablehe knew his cocktails very well and took time to chat to us about what types of cocktails we liked and suggests what we may like. Excellent service! We also had a few bars snacks whilst there which were good.

A very trendy bar serving good beer. Has a popular outdoor area with heaters which is always rammed after work and on Races day. Not much to look at aas your on the busy ring road but the atmosphere is good. Staff are very friendly, maybe a bit too friendly. Can attract a poncey crowd. Serves bar snacks and a lunch menu but its over priced for what it is.

Bar Lounge is a popular hang out for much of Chester's resident financial services crowd. It has an outside area with heaters and some comfy sofas inside - all in all a good range of seating options.


The decor is dark and quite classy - and the table service for drinks is excellent and makes a welcome change to most places in the UK which rely on you going to the bar. The other plus side of this is that when you do need to go to the bar, it is usually fairly easy to get served quickly.


The drinks are mid-priced but of a good quality - nice cocktails and a decent wine list. It has a private

Bar Lounge is a great place for a drink after work. It's friendly and welcoming, with expansive sofas inside and a long bar. If you are drinking outside in the courtyard area then the staff are always on hand to bring you new drinks and take away the empties. Usually the bar is popular and lively. If you turn up on a race day then it can be like a packed Japanese subway train with a similar number of suits. The staff at the door prefer people to be dressed smart casual so you might not get in if you look like a scruff! The restaurant is good, although tucked away so I didn't even realise

This is a really classy bar on a very fashionable street in chester. Inside it is nicely decorated with the usual token leather couches. However it is a bit more original outside where it has twinkly fairy lights and patio heaters. Itsreally nice to come here in the winter and sit outside having a drink under the patio heaters.


I am not sure I would recommend the food here to be honest as in my opinion the menu is a little pretentious and obscure.


Also must warn that it is busy pretty much all of the time! So get there early if you want to secure yourself a table in the garden.

Nice starter pub - outside has patio heaters which is nice in the winter months.


Possibly one of the closest to the race course so does get busy when Chester Races are on.


Ok place, good beer.

This place doesn't get as many people passing through as the other basr on watergate road as its on the bottom corner and has a quieter, more chilled-out atmosphere. Quite popular with couples and generally those 25+, the bouncers sometimes enforce this as a rule but it depends on how you look (ithey've been known to be abit snobby) and how busy the bar is. Table service is a plus here though the hard-sell attitude of waiters trying to get you onto the expensive drinks can get abit annoying. Large garden out the front where you can normally find a seat, plenty of patio-heaters keep it
