The Architect

We had a really great meal at The Architect on Saturday 10th February. It was our second visit, and we loved it. We both had Paté and Apricot Chutney, with Toasted Bloomer to start. Absolute favourite and tasted fantastic! We do visit the Red Fox and Rake Hall, also Brunning and Price Pubs, and the Paté is consistently lovely at all three venues. My husband had Lemon Thyme Roasted Chicken, an innovative dish with chorizo lyonnaise and garlic baby courgettes, I had the ‘small’ Deep Fried Cod in Beer Batter and Chips….fresh, crispy and the chips were fab ! We each had the Small Pudding and Hot Drink Sticky Toffee Pudding, again, really lovely. and I love the matching Teapot and cups !….it may seem a very small thing, but the continuity across the venues is reassuring, and it extends to all aspects of the food and the service, with very high standards. It was a crazy busy Saturday evening and the Architect was full, but the Staff were so friendly and helpful. Thank you very much.

Came to the architect for our work Christmas meal this evening and wow! What a great experience. The pub already has a great reputation and it certainly lived up to it this evening. The menu was excellent and food cooked and presented fantastically. We had a vegetarian on our table and they found plenty of choice available. I have a nut allergy and couldn’t be in safer hands. The room had an open fire too! and service was top notch, attentive but not intrusive. Would definitely recommend.

I recommended this to friends after dining with my husband in November, thankfully it did not disappoint. Great variety of food for everyone service was good attentive.

First ever visit but what a beautiful restaurant, with fantastic friendly staff, and top quality food. Will definitely revisit when I’m next in Chester. Many thanks.

Not good. This place is just for the people that flock into Chester after they have watched the races it’s badly managed and the staff are not helpful at all. The food is meh.
