Sat outside with our dog. Just had drinks this time. Menu looked varied, will have food next time we visit. Good choice of drinks, good service. There are patio heaters under some of the umbrellas .

Helpful, friendly bar staff kept our drinks coming as we sat outside under a large cover. Heaters available if it got too cold. Good range of beers and wines - I was drinking Cheshire Cat or Oracle - and friendly atmosphere.

The Lodge is a very nice bar that serves food a very standard. Their main beer comes from the Salopain brewery but also have a number of other lagers and bitters. The bar is split into a number of smaller rooms with different types of furniture. On thing that is very popular at the lodge is the outside seating area that has large umbrellas and heaters

Really nice food and service. Staff is very helpful and kind. Prices are ok and reasonable compare to other places in the same area. 5 stars!!! 👍🏻

U got to love ur local. Everyone from around the area converge in here.And the beer is good.

Me and my boyfriend was involved in a car crash just outside. The manager (I'm assuming she is) was absolutely lovely, as was the bar staff. Gave us a free coke and said we can stay about till recovery arrives. 10/10

We have called into this bar for the last 3 days when we have been walking back to our hotel. The staff are great. The drinks are reasonably priced. We didnt sample the food but it seemed to be enjoyed by other people. If we ever return to chester we will certainly visit the lodge

Great place lovely meals, the only complaint was a gang of lads came in sat right next to us and where so noisy and loud we had to move to another part of restaurant/bar to be able to talk amongst are selves but the staff and the food where great

Heard a lot of this place big let down will try again in summer time

Family run pub, the food was beautiful and quick attentive service, always a busy place and I can understand why ❤️

Fantastic, the place to be in Chester!

Great bar with good beers, sports TV & heated outdoor area

Can’t compliment them enough. The food is excellent and the variety is eclectic, from mussels to Chilli. Great pub food at sensible prices and the beer is also priced sensibly. You can sit outside or in but the tables inside do seem to be reserved by regulars which might be a bit off putting when you walk in as you can see a sea of reserved signs! Staff are great and helpful too the sharing platter for starters was excellent. Haven’t tried the desserts but they looked good. Ant understand why people would chose anywhere else in Hoole for lunch
